In Massachusetts, one person in every
27l is insane, and there has been an in
crease during the past year in the num-
Der cared for in the state institutions for
the insane, which are full nearly to their
limit. The increase of insanity in Maine
has frequently been pointed out by our
license friends as one of the horrible re-
suits of prohibition. But Massachu-
sets has a "model" license system.

Somehow these protests against the
use of "colored" troops from India and
Africa by the allies in Europe have a
peculiar sound. Is war such an amiable
diversion that it Is to be governed by
caste? The old dueling code, OF course,
allowed duels to be fought only between
social equals. Well, war is after all only
a kind Of dueling, between nations
instead of individuals, and it Is mostly
as foolish as dueling. Some time be-
nighted world, which has SO nearly out
grown dueling, may outgrow war.

In the following lines his wife records

MANY drv towns are cooperating with

when it is not always to their best interest to GO

BIG DEMAND FOR COPPER.

According to John D. Ryan in a
recent interview in Butte the do
nestle consumption of copper is
nothing like normal; probably not
more than 65 per cent. of normal.
but the manufacturing of copper
in the United States is undoubtedly
going on at greater rate than at
any time in history. The large part
of the manufacturing is for war
materials which are exported. The
demand is going to continue as long
as the war lasts and there are con-
tracts which may continue beyond
the time when the war ends because
they may not be filled completely
before the end of the war arrives.
1t is certain there will be no let
up in the buying of war material
while the war lasts. Germany has
been out of our market for long
time but when the war is over that
country will want great quantities
to replenish her stocks for manufac-
turing purposes and to start up her
plants.
The end of the war must work a
sharp revival in general business in
the country even if the revival does
not arrive before the war ends.
There are signs of it's revival in
some lines already.
The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1915-08-05
WOOL BUYERS MOVE NORTH.

Wool buyers who make this Sec
ton of Montana, left Great Falls
Sunday night for Malta and points
on the Great Northern main line to
conduct sealed bid sales and will be
away from this city until Wednes-
day afternoon. There will be no
sale here until Thursday morning,
at earliest, and it will depend on
the amount of the Offering as to
whether there will he sale then.
Monday morning there will be a
sale at Malta and in the afternoon
there will be another sale at Chi
nook. Sales at one or two other
points were contemplated by the
buyers and they will be away until
the late train of Wednesday,, when
they expect to get back to headQuar-
tiers.
That the wool season in this sec
ton is about over was indicated
very strongly at the sale Saturday
when the number of clips offered
was much smaller than at former
sales and, according to the wool buy
ers, was far from as satisfactory as
former offerings. The prices sup
ported that view of the situation.
II, as it now appears, there is but
little more wool to be offered, it
will probably happen there will not
and it may be possible for the buy
ers to clean up the entire 1915 clip
here this week.-Tribune.

GIRLS SEEKING TO WORK
THEIR WAY IN COLLEGE

Miss Mollie Allen of Butte, a
member of the senior class at the
Montana State college, is canvass
ing Bozeman to find places for
young women who wish to work for
part of their expenses while at
tending college. There are a larger
number Of young women writing
for such work this year than ever
before, and it will be necessary to
have much larger number of
places for this kind of work.
The Young Women's Christian
association, and the club women in
Bozeman, have fixed regular
schedule of hours and prices to pro-
vide a standard of agreement be-
tween the young women and the
Bozeman Ihousekeepers, and it is
believed that this will facilitate the
placing of the applicants for work
in the BoZeman homes.
Miss Allen, who is doing the work
of canvassing under the direction
of r. o. Wilson, the registrar, was
the first scholarship girl appointed
in the state by the Montana FEEDER
alton of Women's clubs.

WOOL CLIP SOLD.

Jurgen Kuhr on Wednesday sold
his clip of 100000 pounds OF wool
to j. R. Patterson of the Patterson
Wool Co. Mr.. Patterson the same
day also bought the following clips
Dan LaFrance, 9,958 pounds; Paul
Mccain, $4,000; Moore Bros, 49,

Martens, $4,000.
Prices received range from 25 to
26 cents. Emil Mundt refused 26
cents for his clip.-Chinook Demo-
crat.
The wool clip in Beaverhead
county for 1915 was the largest and
best in the history of that industry
in that county, both as to quantity
and prices received. The wool grow
ers of that section received $685.
6SO.51 for the 1915 crop. Ninety
seven cars or $3.50 bags were load
