Currency Bill Reported

Washington, Sept. 9.-The admins
tration currency reform bill as ap-
proved by the democratic caucus was
reported to the house today from the
committee on banking and currency
by Chairman Glass. A voluminous re-
port, including a lengthy technical
discussion of theory of the bill, &C.
companied the measure, setting forth
the views of the democrats on the
committee. Representative Hayes, Of
California presented a report from the
republicans criticising the measure
and proposing various amendments.
The majority report declared that
the bill "is intended to bring about
necessary changes in the present
banking and currency system of the
United States and to correct long
standing evils that have had a slow
and deep rooted growth. It aims at
the rectification of the essential de-
fects of the present system although
it does not seek to make all the limo
vations that might, from an ideal
standpoint, be deemed desirable"

Express Company Wins Suit

Olympia, WASH, Sept. 9.-The spe-
cial five per cent tax levied on the
gross incomes from state business of
the express companies doing business
in this state is unconstitutional be-
cause it levies a burden on interstate
commerce, according to the decision
of Superior Judge John r. Mitchell of
Thurston county yesterday. Judge
Mitchell decided in favor of the
Great Northern Express company
against which the state brought suit
to collect $29,478 as the five per cent
due the state on the company's 1912
business. Attorney General w. w.
Tanner announced that he would ap-
peal to the state supreme court from
Judge Mitchell's decision.
During the last biennium the state
derived $4,000 revenue through
this tax on the bushes Of five express
companies.

The inspection fee is paid by the ele-
vators and it is deducted from the
price paid the farmer in exactly the
same way as is a freight rate; the
farmer simply receiving that much
less for his grain. The farmers are
naturally the people to fight this ex-

The grades are admitted copies of
the Minnesota grades and are appar-

those of Montana. 1t is simply a
guessing game, where the Montana

PASSES. TARIFF BILL.
Senate Majority Defeats Opposition
BY Vote Of a. to AZ

BY Vote Of - to 81
Washington, SPIT. 9.-The democrat
ic tariff revision bill passed the SEN
ate this afternoon amid a burst of ap-
plause that swept down from crowd
ed galleries and found it's echo on the
crowded floor of the senate. Its pass
age was attended with surprises in
the final moments of the voting when
Senator La Toilette, republican, cast
his vote with the democrats and was
Joined a few moments later by Sena-
tor Poindexter, progressive. The
vote was A to 81.
The principal changes made in the
bill by the senate concern the free
list and the income tax. House lead
ers believe the senate changes would
reduce the revenue the new duties
were estimated to produce and they
hope in conference to get senate
leaders to agree to restore some Of
the house provisions.
The senate reduced the minimum
to which the income tax will apply
from $4,000 to $4,000 and increased
the rates on the larger incomes over
the house provisions. Countervailing
duties on some manufactured comm.
dities were imposed by the senate t.
meet the free listing on raw material.
Wood pulp was also eliminated.

features of the tariff fight ragged, we're

tax is expected to make up the loss
of revenue on sugar.

cattle by the house bill and putting
them on the free list was then rati-

insisted that they had ignored party

GRAIN GRADING LAW

The Montana grain grading commits

is the subject OF criticism. to this ef-

No sufficient reason has been ad-
vanced for its existence, other than
the aim of the last legislature to add
as many of%1ice-holders as possible to
the payroll of the state. The ret re-
suit of the law is to put on added tax
of 81 per car on all the grain going
out of the state; the tax being an in
spection fee which is supposed to pay
the expenses of the grain grading

II sufficient good were done to off

farmers. The grain shipped out of
Montana goes in large part to the
Minneapolis market but no matter
where it goes, it is bought subject to
the grading of the market which buys
it.. The Montana grading will have no
more effect in the Minneapolis or Du'
luth or Chicago or Seattle markets
than would the grading of the farm

this and has copied the specifications

SHOULD RAISE LIVESTOCK

An article in the American maya
zine discusses intelligently the in
e in the cost of beef and sug.
gests the only apparently feasible
remedy for existing conditions.
The author shows that the break
ing up of the ranges into small farms
has narrowed the former principal
source of beef supply. We are now
importing beef from Argentina and
Australia, but how long will these
ranges last? They are plainly des-
tined to the same breaking up as our
W have undergone.
The time Is coming when the world
must look elsewhere for its beef cat
tie. Where is it to look? Seemingly.
there is n part of the world today
available for a continuance of the
range method of beef production, yet
the demand for beef increases annual
ly.
The solution lies in better farming
methods. AS the author points out,
in semi-arid countries, while grain
raising is always more or less precar-
ious, the cattle farmer is usually pros
porous. Proper cultivation Of the
land, proper rotation of crops, the
keeping of cattle for the disposition
of certain crops as fodder-these
make for successful farming and will
increase the beef supply until the
passing of the range will no longer
be a meat-eaters' calamity.
This is the occupation Of real farm
ers," according to this writer, who
goes on to say:
"As soon as the grain growers of
the American and Canadian West are
changed into real farmers we shall
have wheat and cattle and butter and
cheese and sugar and a variety of
other things in abundance. and the
producers will grow rich. This is q
better way to prosperity than tinker.
ing with tariffs and worrying rail-
ways"
1t reads like the sound gospel of
farming. Certainly. experience seems
to corroborate the conclusions here
drawn, and it would be well If every
farmer in the land could read that
paragraph and become that kind of q
Hreal farmer"

Hay Should Not Surburn.

The feeding value. as well as the

the leaves In handling, and this is the
best part OF the crop
When the sun is shining very
