JUDITH GAP TO
BE ON BALLOT

In district court ut White Sulphur
Springs last week Judge Mathews re-
fused to grant a permanent injunction
stopping the Wheatland county cleo
tiOn.
He ruled that insufficient evidence
was shown with regard to the valua-
tion that would be left in Sweetgrass
county If Wheatland county should
take off strip. And another reason
for not granting the injunction at that
time was that the bondsmen had not
paid over the 5000 which they owe as
the expenses OF the primary election.
The matter will be brought into
court again today and it is understood
that the injunction will pc made per-
manent.
Judith Gap has petitioned on the
ballot in case the division question
does come to y vote Ell May o: but
everyone feels certain that the divi
sion will fail if brought to vote
regardless of what towns are candi-
dates for county seat hOnors.

+. A. MCCANN WILL
HAVE A HOG RANCH

That hog raising is one of the most
profitable industries for the farmer in
central Montana, is the opinion of c.
A. McCann, who is making arrange
ments to raise 500 to 1000 Poland
Chinas everv year. 1t will, however.
be several years before he expects to
market that number of hogs every
fall, which he considers the capacity
of his 84O-acre farm adjoining town
on the east.
Mr.. McCann's plan is to feed all the
farm products to hogs, and to largely
supplement the grain feed with alfal-
ia. He will this spring sow 50 acres
to alfalfa. and an additional acreage
will be sown from year to year. He
believes in increasing the number of
hogs just as rapidly as the cereal and
alfalfa producing capacity of the
farm permits. and he intends to final
ly utilize two sections Of land for hog
raising.
A 4OX6O hog house, with concrete
floor and all the latest pens and in

MAKES EXPENSE
!; QUESTION CLEAR

Assessors and their deputies
throughout Montana will be vitality
interested in an opinion rendered
last week by Attorney General d. NJ.
Kelley, relating to travelling expenses
incurred by those officers. A ques-
tion arose in Gallatin county as TO
the Interpretation OF the statute COW
ering the expenses Of the above enamed
officers.
The statute in question states that
''the assessors and deputies in each
county shall be paid the necessary
and actual travelling expenses by
them incurred, not to exceed $50 in
any one month during March, April,
May and June Of each year." The
county commissioners desired to
know whether this sum was to cover
the expenses Of the force Of assessors
in each county, or of each individual
of the force.
At the request Of the commissioners
Justin NJ. Smith. county attorney of
Gallatin county. wrote to Attorney
General Kelly for an opinion. The
latter official interprets the statute to
mean that the $50 is to cover the trav-
cling expenses Of the total force of
assessors in each county. and not
each individual assessor or deputy. -
Madisonian.
