Must Have License

The State Grain Inspector, W.
E. Templeton, has sent out no.
tices to the effect that all grain
buyers must secure a license in
compliance with the state law
before they can deal in grain.
They are classified as follows:
Grain Dealers, who operate ele-
vators, warehouses and flour
mills; Public Warehousemen,
who buy and store grain in
warehouses; and Track Buyers,
who buy grain on the track.
Grain buyers need not furnish
bond but require a license.
Warehousemen must pay 81 on
each building for the filing of
| the bonds to insure safe keeping
| of store grain. Trackmen
must furnish a $4,000 bond.
mo charge is made for license.
A penalty of from $25 to $lOO
is attached for those disregard
ing the law. Also a penalty is
provided for wrong weights and

The Difference

Nobody should object to pay
ing the railways a compensatory
rate for carrying the mails.
With the exception of the Post
office department. officials no.
body does. Postmaster General
Burleson has been fond of quot
ing the Panama railroad as an
example of the beauties of a
government-owned system, so
it would be refreshing to know
what he would say in answer
to a comparison of the rates
paid that railway for mail serv-
ice and the general mail carry
ing rate. 1t is quite interesting.
The Panama railway has but
ne stockholder--the govern
ment of the United States. The
ordinary railroad is owned by
the people who hold its shares
and bonds. For each ton OF
mail carried a mile by the Pan
anna railway the government
pays $1,77; for each ton carried
a mile by the ordinary railway
the government pays 10 cents.
If the Panama railway for it,

Seed Applications
At Local Banks
Commissioners to Meet on
April 9th and Will
Consider Matter

The Pioneer Press this week
printed seed application forms
and they are now at the local
banks and all who c onsi der
themselves eligible under the
law should call at either bank
and have an application filled
out. We believe there is a
fairly good chance to have the
meritorious applications from
this community acted upon by
the board. Commissioner Ja-
cobson is not disposed to make
assurances that may not be cas-
lily fulfilled but he can be de-
pended upon to do everything
within his power to make the
new law 60 just as far as is
possible and consistent. The
law is rather vague. but in this
time of dire need the county
attorney and board may be de-
pended upon to interpret it as
literally as prudence will die
tate.

For County Agent
State and Federal Govern
ments to Aid the

PLANTATION Of the act:
The fourteenth legislative
assembly amended the coun-
ty enabling law in regard to
county agriculturalists so that
commissioners may at their dis
cretion appropriate 500 per
month toward the salary and
expenses Of a county agricultu-
ralist, The Smith Lever agri-
cultural act of Congress will
give Montana S13,952 for this
work during 1915 and the Mon
tana legislature has appropriat-
ed a similar sum for the same
purpose. This will make it pos
sible to add three or four new
county agricultural agents to
the number already at work.
1T will cost about $500 fol
the salary, auto, Office and 9TH
or expenses of a county agri-
culturalist. Where the counties
make an appropriation of $10(
a month the extension office
will add a sufficient sum from
state a n d federal funds tx
secure such a man. Counties
will be considered in order 0.

five new counties can be takeI
