Representative Of Eastern Capitalists
Pays Forest City a Visit

Mr.. Frank p. Fox. of Indlanap-
oils, Indiana, the gentleman who
has been spending the past week
or more in Gettysburg endeavor-
ing to get her business men inter
ested in the test and development
of Potter county as an oil field,
was a visitor in Forest City last
Saturday, in company with
Messrs. N. j. Schlachter and Geo.
Holland. we'll known residents of
our countyseat.
While in this vicinity the gen
tlemen prospected for the location
of the first test we'll, indicating
Mr.. Fox's purpose to keep we'll
within the gas belt of the Missouri
riyer with his experiments.
A number ofssvery interesting
stories are told in Gettysburg re-
garding Mr.. Fox Hdd hls hackers.
such as: Besides a study of the
geological reports of the state and
federal governments, a systematic
study and analysis Of the sand and
other flow from the artcsian wells
of this and other states has been
pursued by company of experts
at Indianapolis, for several years,
who are engaged by Mr. Fox and
his friends, whose regular business
is the dri)lins OF oil wells, i'm the
various states. AS a result of
these studies, the company is en-
phatic in their belief that oil, coal
or Sas exists in paying quantities
under the artesian basin of Potter
and Sully counties and are willing
to expend from $40, 1000 to $50, 900
hard cash in their efforts to dcvcl-
ope it.
MIR. Fox states that he must
haye the lease of at least so, 200
acres before he can commence
drilling, commencing at a point
about seven miles west of Gettys-
burg, and diverging north and
south-but mostly north toward
the rive. The Job of getting the
necessary amount of land may
possibly proceed rather slowly.
owing to the fact that the State of
South Dakota is the owner of large
tracts of the best land remaining
in the desired territory.
The task of securing the leases
hls been entrusted to Mr.. G. r.
Kreig of Gettysburg who writes
us that he is ''get,ing leases faster
than he can handle same.'' The
Press has been favored with a
copy of the lease thatiis being ne
gotiated and we are unable to
detect in it anything which would
be against the interest of the
lessor, or farmer, in signing it.
On the other hand, it is easy to be
seen that the success of the project
would mean bigger and bettel
market for everything that oul
farmers can raise aud the Memen-
dous development of every nook
and corner of'our county.

ed at Stevensville, received score of

two and one-half points below the

boost and something Montana can be
proud of.

new BRAND Law
IS NOW EFFECTIVE
MAKES MANY OLD BRANDS AVAIL.
ABLE FOR DEMONSTRATION
TWILL SUPPLY DEMAND.

The law relating to the re-recording
Of all brands in the state became ef-
fective November /, and Secretary
Raymond Of the state board of live
stock commissioners and of the Mon
tana Stockgrowers association has re-
ported that there are now about 21,-
600 brands which are open for re-issu-
ance. The law working this rejuvena.
ton OF the dead" brands was passed
by the legislature two years ago and
all Owners Of brands were given un-
til the first Of November this year to
re-register their brands, fee of only
25 cents being demanded for such re-
gistration.
There were on the books of the
board of stock commissioners before
the law was enacted about $4,000
brands. About 5000 of these brands
were transferred to other owners. Of
this number approximately 10000 have
feregistered and retained the owner
ship of their brands, while the remain
der, about 21,O0O either because of
neglect, death, removal of owner, or
other reasons, have failed to renew the
ownership of their brands, so under
the new law these brands are now open
to anyone, first come, first served.
Aother law marking notable depar-
ture from old custom is that forbidding
branding with connected brand other
than such as existed before the new
law was passed. which restriction will
interfere materially with the "rustling"
industry. Undoubtedly many of the
now expired brands are of this char
acter, SO it seems reasonable to sup
pose that these will not be allotted to
new applicants, but even with this re-
duction it would seem that the supply
of brands now available would be am
pie to supply all the demands that are
likely to be made. Before this whole
sale release of dead brands it was quite
impossible for a new owner to devise
q brand that did not conflict with one
already on record. and the embargo
was the main reason for the change
that has been effected.

but before dairying will progress much
there must be legislation that will en-
courage the building of creameries and
then protect them. The agricultural
income OF the state would be increased
millions Of dollars each year if such
legislation were provided.
Our farmers are shipping grain and
hay to eastern dairymen and shipping
their products back. This should not
be SO. At the present time there is no
market for hay, while milk, butter and
cheese are soaring in price. Oleomar-
garne is selling locally at 80 cents ger
pound and there is no market for hay.
Milk is retaining here for so cents per
gallon. One ton Of hay will produce
so pounds Of butter and 40 gallons of
milk. Think of it. Something should
be done to stimulate this great indus
try. Will you not kindly call your
readers attention to this matter?"
The committee believes centraliza-
tion OF creamery interests is fatal
both to the farmer and the public.
There can be no doubt says the cir
cular alluded to, that the tendency of
the Capitalization system is bad both
for the farmer and for the pubic. The
effect is to exact high prices from the
consumer and pay low prices to the
producer, the profits going to the large
operators who control the situation.
The small cooperative creameries
should be encouraged. and the dairy
division Of the department Of agricul-
ture is spending great deal of money
to develop these smaller institutions
