IT is IMPOSSIBLE TO DE-
VELOP THE DAIRY INDUS.
TRY WITHOUT GOOD SlRES

Thousands of dollars will be spent in
the next few years to import dairy
sires to Montana. Some people will
become possessed with the idea that
purebred sires are necessary to Inn
provement. Many will overlook the
fact that NOSE of the purebreds are in
capable of improving the quality.
They forget that paper pedigrees and
fancy points and good looks have been
sought at the expense of usefulness.
Often the purenred is weak In his
Inheritance of dairy quality.
The one thing that needs to be I'M
pressed upon dairymen more than any
thing else at the present time Is the
imperative need of good sires. You
may reduce or destroy even average
dairy qualities by using inferior males
Pure breeding and pedigree are nc
guarantee of value unless you under
stand how to interpret them.
Be sure the dam of the sire yot
choose is a great producer. Be sure
that his sire's dam was also grea
producer. The more great producer:
you can find in the last three genera
tions of ancestors the better.
Then make sure that the sire ha!
the dairy form and points,-high ant
thin in the withers, deep and Ion,
In the barrel, well developed rudi'
mentaries and veins, and full, brigh
eye.
A good individual from good stool
will get heifers that pay large profits
A paper pedigree. however fashion
able. without merit, will detroy an
hope of profit from the next genera
tion.-F. s. COOLEY.

RAILROADS WILL
CONTINUE BUILDING
GENERAL RETRENcHMENr HAS
NOT AFFECTED THE WORK
IN FERGUS COUNTY.

That all the railroads OF the coun-
try are beginning an era of retrench-
ment is beyond question but it is not
believed it will materially affect the
work in Fergus county. The active
railroad builders are the Milwaukee
and the Great Northern and neither
has shown any symptom of stopping
the work.
The main reasons for not stopping
work on these two lines are that it
Is all necessary and that it would cost
q vast amount to stop and then begin
again. The Milwaukee will probably
stop at Weede in Fergus county and
possibly at Grass Range for this years
work. Between Lewistown and Great
Falls there is no possibility of the
work stopping unless some Of the
state railroad commissions make an
arbitrary use of the power given them
under the Minnesota rate decision
Of the supreme court. The same con-
clusion applies to the tunnel work of
the Great Northern and probably to
the extension beyond the tunnels to
the present main line. There is no
present idea of stopping work on the
branch lines in Fergus county as ev
cry mile of it is in territory which
will make the lines profitable from the
start. This is especially the case with
the Roy, Christina and Winifred mile
age, Townsite Agent Morrow having
expressed his belief that more ton
mage per acre would come from thi'
territory than any equal territory OF
the entire Milwaukee system.-Fergn'

KLEIN WINS soc.
GER CHAMPIONSHIP
Coal Miners Defeat Butte Soccer Team
by 5 Goals to on July 4th.

The Klein soccer football team sup
ported by two players from Roundup
went to Butte last Thursday where
they met team from that city at
Columbia Gardens on the Fourth of
July to decide the state championship.
The Butte aggregation has been con-
tending that the honors belonged to
them, but their claim was contested by
the Klein boys and rightly so as the
game on the Fourth testifies. The
coal miners rather surprised the Butte
bunch with their plucky playing and
after sc minutes retired from the field
victorious ty 5 goals to /.
The Klein team now lays claim to
the state championship and are open
to defend it, The Record has been
authorized by James Hunter, one OF
the members of the team, to issue a
challenge to any soccer team in the
state which would undertake to wres'
the championship from them.
The gate receipts at the Butte game
were far below expectations. The
Butte boys have agreed to give Klein
a return game here on Labor Day.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. April 2.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at unchanged prices
to an advance of three points and sold
about three to five points net higher
during the early trading. Cables did not
fully follow yesterdays advance on old
crop positions, but were rather better
than due on new crop months, and while
a number of reports came in of renewed
progress with farm work in the eastern
belt local weather experts were predict
ing unsettled conditions with possible
rains before the end of the week. There
was also continued apprehension of floods
i'm the Mississippi valley, which helped
to check offerings and the market was
quiet but steady after the call.
The official forecasts for unsettled and
showery weather and reports that the
prospects were for rains in the flooded
districts started more active covering
during the middle of the morning and
prices sold about 8 to IL points net high
er. Realizing checked the advance around
1920 for July. and the market at midday
was a point or two off from the best.
Spot quiet; middling uplands, 1890,
nominal.
Estimated receipts at all the ports to-
day. 1890 bales. against 13.6S4 last week,
and IA. 12J last year. For the week. 100,

CROP EXPERT FROM BRAZIL.
E. C. Green Goes From Department
of Agriculture to South America.

Brazil is the latest of the South Amer
lean republics to secure crop expert
from the Department of Agriculture. She
has made three-year contract with f.
G. Green of the bureau of plant industry
to leave soon for Brazil, where he will
conduct experiments in cotton culture.
There is a vast territory in the eastern
equatorial part of the country where
there is every prospect that the cotton
crop will do well. Brazil is by far the
greatest coffee-growing country i'm the
world. but the government for several
years past has purposely restricted. the
coffee output and prohibited the plant
ing of new groves. The country is now
going in for more diversified crops and
cotton is one of those being experimental
with and improved.
1t is quite possible that -fr. Green will
be required to extend his investigations
in many other directions before he is al
lowed by the government to sett3 down
steadily to cotton work.

Remorseful Citizen Contributes $500
Through Louisiana Priest.

The Conscience fund" Of the United
States Treasury has been fattened to the
extent of 5000 by the receipt of check
for that amount which has been received
by the treasurer. The check was in

transmission to the Treasury Depart
ment .'by one who some years ago de-
frauded the government of the sum. and
who now wishes to make full restitution -
The letter contained RIO reference as to
the manner in which the government had
been defrauded. nor any clue to the

the fund received in Seral years.
