raw material depends upon the manu-
facturer for market for his product
The manufacturer as an individual Ia
the more dependent because of the
fact that the factory must have the
producer OF raw material in order to
exist. The producer is more at liberty
to change his line than is the manu-
facturer, hence while there is a close
interdependence between the producer
and the manufacturer, the former is
the more independent, and it is there
fore expedient that the manufacturer
attempt in every way possible to as
sist him In producing the raw material
more intelligently and economically.
The above holds true Of the rela-
tionship existing between the cream
cry and the dairy farmer. The cream
cry Is dependent on the farmer for its
existence, for the amount of raw ma
terial received and consequently for
the economic production of the fin
ished article per unit. 1t Is necessary
that the farmer be shown how to pro.
duce milk and cream economically
else he has tendency to turn to other
lines of agriculture. While much has
been said and written about the profits
| to be derived from dairy farming. un
less proper methods are employed the
income from the dairy herd is very
small Anything that can be done to
increase the profit from dairy herd
In community not only increases the
profit Of the farmer. but It also adds
/ to the profit of the creamery. 1t seem,
therefore, good business for the cream
cry to do all within its power to aid
its patrons in getting their business
on a sound basis, which means a
greater and more economical produc'
ton.

CANADA'S PLACE
AS A PRODUCER
Canada Is Getting a Great Many
Americans

Three young provinces. Manitoba.
Saskatchewan, and Alberta says
New York financial journal, have al
ready made Winnipeg one OF the great
est primary wheat markets Of the
world. In 1904 they raised $4,000, 900
bushels of wheat. Five years later
they produced $50, 100000 bushels. In
1913 the crop Appropriated 100000
600 bushels. At the present rate of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third In
the line of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately 1t will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer of our
development. Undoubtedly 1t will
prove the same with Canada In the
last calendar year our trade with Can
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countries-the United
Kingdom and Germany-is our trade
greater. No vivid imagination Is
needed to see what the future deveI-
opment Of Canada means to the
people Of the United States.
The influx of American settlers to
the Canadian prairies is now in full
swing. Within the past few days
over 80 OF those arrived at Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
to the value Of 100000. Fifty settlers
from Oregon arrived in Alberta few
days ago; while rs families OF settlers
from the state of Colorado arrived at
Calgary on their journey northwards
The goods and personal effects OF this
party filed 20 box carr OF live stock
alone they had It's horses, is cows
and 1000 head OF poultry. Another
class of settler has arrived at Peers,
ITO miles west OF Edmonton. where no
fewer than 200 German farmers have
taken UP land. These are from good
farming families and brought with
them large amount OF capital.
Then in South Western Saskatche-
wan, there are large numbers settling,
these from the United States predomi-
mating, while in the northern and cen
trail portions Of all these provinces,
the settlement of new people is going
on steadily. Early In April, Peter
Goertz arrived In Cardiff after six
day journey from Mcpherson, Kansas
Mr. Goertz who had purchased LAND
here was In charge OF a party of 3s
people from the same part of Kansas
and they came through with special
train which included all their stock
and implements. The equipment was
all Rock Island cars, and was the first
full immigrant train ever sent out by
that railroad The farms purchased
by the members of the party are
amongst the best In the district.

bowed down with poignant grief and
overwhelming sorrow at the loss of
loved ones gone before, silently and
quietly wended their weary way in
the hot sun and up the hill to the cem-

whom God had called away.

Entertainment Committee
Canvass Business Men
Some Business Men Oppose Home Celebration,
Circus, Chautauqua and Roundup Conflict
According to Report

At special meeting Of the Enter
tainment Committee Of the Chamber
of Commerce held Tuesday evening,
it was decided that the business men
of the city did not want a July 4th
celebration at home. This decision
was reached after a canvass of the
business men was made by Ray Lowe,
Chairman of the committee, on Mon
day and Tuesday.
In an interview with Mr.. Lowe, the
Monitor Man was told this morning
that none Of the business men of the
city were IN favor of the home cele-
bration except ]. Harley Miskimen.
Mr.. Lowe raid: I'm getting the SEN
timent Of the business men. the com
mittee did not intervisw tho drug
stores or the saloons. assuming that
they would be in favor OF the celebra-
tion. The number of men in other
who were interviewed, were
strongly in favor of not having It this
year. and their number Offset the num-
ber that wanted IT,
'"The fact that the circus comes on
the second, continued Mr.. Lowe,
and the Chautauqua for five days, be.
ginning July 9Th, and the smaller
towns all around us having their own
celebrations, the thing would not be
practicable this year. It is decided
to put more money and effort in the
fair this year, giving more free open
air attractions. Besides, the Chamber
has to be careful how 1t spends its
money as It is pledged not to ask for
any more donations this year"
The Monitor made canvass Of the
business men this afternoon with the
following results: "

c. E. Tisdale was also interviewed
by Mr.. Lowe but stated to the Mon

mite opinion one way or the other as
he had not given the matter any
thought.
Mayor Hagan said that he thought
the money was subscribed for July

else, but Of ourse that was ques-

ing the fact that he intended to take

no reason in the world why we should
not have some kind Of celebration
in Glendive this year for change.
Einar Riyenes, proprietor of the
Toggery, when interviewed yester-
day, stated that his receipts on July
3rd. in 1906, 1906, and 1911, when the
city had home celebration on July
4th, ran all the way up from $3.50 to

such celebration was held. he took in
not more than $40. Mr.. Riyenes is
