SHOULD RAISE LIVESTOCK

Shortage of meat in the United
States AMI the way to Increase the
supply are discussed by experts in
the department Of agriculture in a
special bullet1i issued to the farmers
of the country.
That there is a decided meat short
age is explained by James NJ. Pick
ems of the bureau of anima! industry,
while George M. Rommel, chief of the
animal husbandry division, urges the
maintenance and increase in the meat
supply by revival of beef cattle rails
ing in the crn belt, its extension in
the eastern states, and increasing
the production of beef cattle and hogs
in the south.
1.-THE high cost of meat is a serious
reality" says Mr.. Pickens, land it is
now obvious that the rise in prices
In recent years is the natural result
of an actual shortage in production,
The condition is reflected in the pei
capita consumption of meat in the
United States, which is estimated to
have fallen off ten pounds in foul
years, or from 1872 pounds in 1909 tc
1852 pounds in the fiscal year 1913.
1T is evident that the country is
facing an era of short production Of
meat, and that some constructive

Arrested on Forgery Charges

Helena, Oct. 18.-Mark Good, who
has been wanted here for many
months on the ground of being con-
nected with forgeries m the endorse
ment of checks issued by the state
board of stock commissioners, was
arrested here today on six forgery
charges. Bail was fixed in each case
at $4,000, and Good went to jail. At
ter travelling all over the world, Good
returned to Helena voluntarily. He
said today that he did not know as
much about the forgeries as many
supposed he did. He came back in
order to get rid of the trouble and
tell what he did know about the mat
ter.
The embezzlement from the office
of the secretary of the state board of
stock commissioners by S. w. Lang
horne, Jr., and his associates for the
years 1909 and 1910. amounted to &c.,
54O.55. During 1907 and 1908, it is
felt certain other moneys were en-
bezzled, but owing to the fact that
the cancelled checks for those years
have mysteriously disappeared, the
exact total has never been ascertain
ed.
Good was charged in the report of
the special legislative Investigating
committee, with conspiring with
Langhorne, who was a clerk in the
Office of the stock board, and obtain.
ing funds by endorsing checks issued
to owners of estray cattle.

Cannot Purchase Gold

Helena, Oct. 1S.-The United States
assay Office in this city is out of the
market, temporarily at least, for gold
orders having been received from the
director of the mint to discontinue
such purchases until congress recti-
fies it's failure to pass an appropria-
ton for the movement of bullion. The
Office will receive shipments from
mining lei as heretofore, If they
care to send them, and will hold
them.
The order affects small operators,
who heretofore have received the top
price for their metal at the assay
office but who now, if they want
ready money, will be forced to dis
pose of it elsewhere.
Sub-treasuries at New York and
San Francisco are also affected. They
will not be able to move bullion, and
unless some way of relieving the sit
uation is found, eventually there will
be a big shortage Of money.

May Not Prosecute Good

Helena, Oct. 17.-Immunity has not
been promised by either state or coun-
ty officials, to Mark Good, whose name
was involved in the Langhorne case,
and who returned to Helena last
night from ~wanderings that took hin,
around the globe.
The LanghOrne embezzlement was
discovered in November, 1910. The
next month Good disappeared, and
though searched for all over this
country and in foreign countries. he
was not located. Good was on Main
street today and talked Interestingly
of his travels. He was in Mexico, in
India, Egypt, and for a considerable
while in Australia, returning to Mon
tana directly from the South Seas. 1t
was rumored some time ago that he
was tired of being a wanderer, and if
there was to be any music, he was
prepared to face it.
Good was wanted badly enough in
February of this year when the final
report of the special legislative in.
vestigating committee was submitted
to the governor.
This report stated ut appears that
conspiracy was entered into between
Samuel w. Langborne. Jr., Ray c.
Clements and Mark Good, with pos.
sibly other persons, to procure by
means of forging the name of the
payee to checks of a large sum OF
money out of the estray fund.-"
