During the past week the
writer had occasion to take
several auto rides through
the country north and east
of Cut Bank. Some of the
territory visited is in t h e
twilight zone" between
Cut Bank and the trading
territory of neighbor towns
and in a few instances the
places we visited were nearer
to the other towns than to
Cut Bank. We took t h e
pains to ask several farmers
what town they preferred
as their market and trading
point and in every instance
they PROMPTLY answered that
they preferred Cut Bank.
"The prices are a shade low
er than in the smaller towns
that are nearer to us, there
is a better chance for selec-
ton and in short you a r e
nearly always sure t 0 get
what you want-and t h i S
means much after a long trip
to town.. Then Cut Bank
has good roads and is paying
more attention than ever to
making them better. After
you get to town you find
good feed barns for your
horses and good hotels. If
you stay over night you can
visit the billiard halls, go to
the picture show or amuse
yourself in some such fash
ion. That is worth some
thing to the rancher a long
distance out" This is the
gist of the opinion expressed.
t h e y are not imaginary
words placed in the mouths
of imaginary people by the
writer. Aren't these reasons
food for consideration? And
should we not make a con-
stantly greater effort to con-
tinue this condition and make
Cut Bank a town that will
attract people from far out
side our logical territory?
The opportunity is here and
our good spirit and unity can
be drawn on some more. Let
us be ever vigilant in work
ing to make Cut Bank the
permanently big town of this
section of Montana and all
good things will gravitate
our way.

OBSTRUCT
LEGITIMATE TRADE

Berlin, Dec. 16-At the annual meet
ing of the German-American Business
league of Berlin today references were
made to British reports regarding
shipment of German and Austro-Hun-
garian goods from warehouses in Rot
terdam to the United States. DR..
Gustav Stresemann, member of the
reichstag, in making an official report
for the executive committee Of the
league, said that as matter Of fact
only small lots of such goods have
been forwarded upon British certi-
ficates. The old status of obstruction
continued, he declared, because the
most important neutral country failed
to use the power in its hand to pro
tect it's trade with Germany.
Oficials Of the league reported that
the organization continues to grow.
It was stated that it has total mem
bership of 1909. firms, OF which more
than half have joined within a year.

CUTTING OF THROAT
SAVES BOYS LIFE

Rock Island, Ill, Dec. 16.-Fred Law
son, IL, while coasting, was struck
in the neck by piece OF q wagon
wheel rim protruding from the
ground. Three hours later his body
had swollen to twice it's normal size.
A puncture had been made in the
bronchial tube. In exhaling, much Of
the air passed through this puncture
and under the skin Of the body, caus-
ing the body to initiate. He was at the
point of complete suffocatiOn when
physicians arrived. Their first act
was to cut the skin Of the neck to
permit the air to leave the body from
under the skin. The doctors say the
lad would have been dead had they
reached him five minutes later. They
say he will live. 1t is said to be one
of the most unusual cases in the his
tory of the local medical fraternity

The extraordinary number of horses
exported the past year naturally leads
to the query, What shall we do for
horses?" There are several angles in
the situation not apparent to the cas-
ual observer that must be compassed
before an answer can be made.
Market horses are subject to supply
and demand, the same as other market
commodities. The fact that this coun-
try had accumulated q large supply
of the kind OF horses which the for
eign buyers have, to large extent,
demanded makes the draught Of so
many thousand head from our supply
less serious than would at first APP
pear.
So far as the cavalry mounts,
known to the trade as riders" are
concerned, 1t is doubtful if the surplus
has yet been overdrawn. Even should
our supply Of this class be practically
exhausted the situation would not be
ominous since horses Of this sort are
a drug on the market in normal times.
Such a surplus would not now be
available had we not persisted III
breeding common road horses in open
defiance Of the markets discrimina-
ton against light stuff" Horses are
usually bought on specific orders so
that there is practically no outlet for
the insists which do not come up to
the buyers specifications, as in the
case of cattle, sheep and hogs, for
all of which, no matter how inferior
there are consumers. Accumulation
of an unmarketable surplus was in
evitable under these circumstances.
In the prevailing spirit of prepared
ness, however, one may reasonably
ask If some contingency may not arise
through which the loss of SO many
horses from our available supply
would become serious handicap.
Possibly so, but we should not lose
sight of the fact that the horses which
have gone abroad have cost SO much
more than their original purchase
price by the time they were put down
at the front, that it has been neces-
sary to buy at very low figure in
order not to make the ultimate cost
prohibitive. Add to the price paid
for horses in the middle or far west
the transportation charges to the sea-
board and then across, deducting
from the number landed those lost
from disease, exposure and neglect,
and the cost price per head of those
horses which actually see service is
found to be extremely high. Hence

buyers are limited to comparatively
low purchase price.
For purpose of our defence, at least,
much of the expense Of transporta.

be entailed, so that our quartermas-
ter's department could pay much

ments have expended. The class OF
horses that might be had Tor the
higher price are still available, al
though their number has never been
considered adequate by our remount
officers.
However, the foreign army buyers
have taken "gunners" as well as
riders" horses of business type
which could probably not be had,
many of them, at the price allowed
except in time Of business depres-
sion, with it's consequent reduction
in the number of horses required, as
at present. While their loss will no
doubt be felt in an economic as well
as a business way the fact that they
have moved on BODIES well for the fu-
ture supply.
Without the army demand business
horses would have found dull market
this year, with resultant reduction IN
the number of mares bred the coming
season Since the marketing OF
horse must be anticipated by at least
four or five years, the restoration OF
normal supply takes longer than in the
case of other market animals-cattle,
sheep and hogs. A short crop one
year might make itself felt at just the
time when the colts of that year were
required for service.
We have the resources in this coun-
try from which to produce an almost
Iinexhaustible supply of horses OF any
type. What we need more than any,
thing else is disposition on the part
of our farmers to raise more colts.
They cannot be expected to do that
which they do not think can be made
to pay, but many farmers have this
year cashed in on horses. The prices
paid by army contractors can hardly
be said to net generous profit over
cost of production, but the removal
of depressing surplus OF unmarked
able horses and the supplementing
of trade rendered dull by unusual
business conditions should pave the
way for prosperous era in horse
breeding that will satisfactorily an
swer the question, What shall we DO
for horses?"

ZINE sRoNzE TAsLET.

Rockwell City, Dec. 16.-A beauti-
full bronze tablet adorns the lobby OF
the fine new Calhoun county court
house. On this tablet in bold relief
are the names Of the supervisors
and the company who put up the court
house. The strange part of the tablet
is the fact that the supervisors have
placed the policies Of each Of the su-
pcryisors after their respective names.
Calhoun county is a strong republican
county, but at the time Of the build
ing of the new court house the ma
lority Of the Ave members were demo-
Gratis, and the beautiful tablet shows
this to every passerby. The probable
ity is that this state of affairs will
never be SO again. The taxpayers Of
the county paid $3.50 to have this fine
bronze tablet in their fine court house.

the Masses says the Rotterdam cor

order to appease these clamorings It
will need to deal with no fewer than
one hundred and thirty resolutions, all

handling, and demands Of better pay

CHILD is SHOT
in LOWER LIMB

Vinton, Dec. 16.-While going to the
field on the farm of Clarence Meyhew
in Cedar township, one Of the hired
men dropped a loaded shot gun, the
charge striking five-year old Norma
Sangster in the lower limb.
The child was running along behind
the men, when one changed his gun
from the right to the left shoulder
and in some way lost his grasp on the
gun. It fell to the ground with the
above result, and it was a very narrow
escape from instant death for the
child
