Irish Home Burns

The residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
S. G. Irish, on the ranch north
east of Roman, burned last Fri
day morning about two O'Clock.
Mr.. Irish was away at the time
on a trip to the east side of the
mountains. The family attended
the school picnic at the mouth of
Mud creek on Thursday, arriv-
ing home late that evening.
After reaching home a fire was
made to prepare a lunch, after
which the family retired.
Mrs. Irish was awakened about
two O'Clock by the smoke and
cracking Of the flames. but only
in time to awaken the others and
get them out. Very little was
saved and the house and prac-
tically all the contents went up
in smoke. 1t is believed the fire
started from the stove pipe. Mr..
Irish carried 81, 900 insurance.

Opposed to Consolidation

At a meeting of the Glacier
view Social club held on Sunday,
June 13, at the Glacierview
school house, the following were
elected as the board of trustees
for the coming year: James
Farrow, J. j. Rogers and j. F.
Pfeiffer.
After the election, the question
of consolidation of schools was
discussed. Arguments for and
against consolidation as outlined
at the recent meeting at Crow
creek were submitted and on a
vote being taken consolidation
was defeated by a vote of IA to

pell, bringing a 70-piece kid
band, a host of people and the
Big Fork ball team. The band
was a decided novelty and gave
the crowd some excellent music.
All were uniformed in white,
led by a drum major probably
five years old. Visitors really
enjoyed the band and the music
and Kalispell may feel justly
proud of this organization.
The ball game was close and
those who were lucky enough to
see it say it was good. How
ever, only those who were able
to force their way through the
crowd and reach the inside of
the diamond got to see any of it
except an occasional high fly.
The final score was Big Fork 3,
Poison 4.
After the ball game several
exhibitions of rough riding were
given and a couple of horse races
pulled off.

SCHOOL PICNIC GATHERING
DECLARE FOR CONSOLIDATION

Although the weather was not
favorable, still the attendance at
the school picnic last Thursday
was was quite large and included
patrons of every school in the
north end of the district. After
the crowd had gathered the
lunches were spread and all en-
joyed sumptuous picnic dinner.
Prof. Tenny, state superin-
tendent of rural schools, ad-
dressed the gathering, the drift
of his remarks being favorable
to the consolidation of country
schools where conditions will
permit. He was followed by
other speakers representing the
various schools in the country
west of Roman, some favoring
and some opposing consolidation.
After a very thorough discussion
of the subject a vote was taken
which resulted in the gathering
favoring consolidation.
Mr.. H. A. Kaiser was selected
as chairman of a committee of
ways and means and empowered
with authority to appoint the
balance of the committee, con-
sisting of two members from
each school Hillside, Fairview,
Grandview, Glacierview and Mud
creek.
This committee will report later
and upon their findings some
definite action will be taken.

LAND PRODUCTS SHOW
GREATEST IN THE WORLD

In open competition with every
state in the union and every
country in the world, Montana
received the Grand Prize foi
cereal grains exhibited at the
Panama-Pacific exposition, and
in addition, a total of 513 medals
on general agricultural products,
more than was awarded to any
other state or nation.
If there are any Montana citi-
zens who hitherto have been
doubtful as to the resources of
their own state, this should be a
convincing argument. The WIN
ming of this momentous prize,
should and will, bring into the
state thousands of land hungry
individuals from every section
of the United States who are
looking for a country of bigger
yields and cheaper lands than in
the congested commonwealth of
the east.
At the Montana State Fair last
fall there were nearly 5000 agri-
cultural exhibits; more than the
total shown at the state fairs of
Minnesota, Iowa, and Illinois,
and of greater variety. The
major portion of the exhibit
which won the world prize for
Montana at the Panama-Pacifc
exposition was collected through
the medium of the Montana state
fair, and this convincing evil
dence that the Montana state
fair is one of the greatest Land
Products shows in the world.
The Montana winning at San
Francisco and the magnificent
crop outlook for this state should
induce exhibitors at the state
fair to outdo their former efforts,
and encourage many who have
never exhibited to get in line
this fall and help build for a
greater state.
This is Montana's year and
every Montanan should make the
most of it.

Buying In Helena

1t is commonly supposed that
too much cannot be said about
the desirability of buying at
home and keeping the money Of
a community in the town or city
where it is earned or produced.
But sometimes a newspaper is
led to believe that it is doing an
injustice to it's readers by ever
lastingly asking them to patron
ize home merchants. Sometimes
a newspaper gets into a position
where it can see another side.
Perhaps the consumers have
something to say.
Of course the merchants are
the friends of a newspaper
sometimes. They patronize it
by buying it's advertising space
ond by subscribing for the paper.
So the newspaper is supposed
to be afraid to say anything
about the merchants. And the
ordinary consumers are thus
pictured as offenders against the
business life of the city because
they buy things in other cities
which could be bought at home.
But what about the merchants
themselves? Do they buy of
other merchants?
The editor of the Independent
was shown indisputable evidence
a short time ago that one of the
big merchants of Helena has
been buying his groceries out
side of Helena. 1t is an estab-
lished fact so far as the Inde-
pendent is concerned. Yet this
merchant will sit in commercial

Home Grown Berries

John Llewllyn of Leon, brought
in several gallons of fine home
grown Strawberries last Monday
and these were followed by
others every day. In favor they
excel any of the foreign berries
received here this season, and
the fact that they are fresh from
the vines insures a splendid con-
dition. Mr.. Llewllyn will have
a good crop this year and he ex-
poets to have them for about a
month.
In addition to the berries, Mr..
LleWellyn brought in a bunch of
eVergroWing strawberry plants,
which the Pioneer man has set
out in his field in the outskirts of
Roman. Last year Mr.. I4leWllyn
got a few plants at cost of
So. so for Is, and from these he
has a splendid producing bed this
year. The plants brought in
were loaded with berries and he
expects his bed to produce ber-
ries from now until Christmas,
and advises everybody to put out

We Want Light

The Helena Independent offers
$50 in gold to the Montana editor
who raises the best bushel of
potatoes this summer and ex-
hibits the said bushel at the state
fair. Now we want to know if
it makes any difference whether
it is more than a bushel, or if it
must be just one bushel. We
dislike very much to cut any of
our potatoes down to that size.

WIN MANY PRIZES
At panama FAIR

1t was good news received
from San Francisco stating that
Montana had won world honors
for it's agricultural display at the
Panama-Pacific exposition. Mr..
Frank Hazelbaker, secretary of
the Montana commission, who
has been in Frisco in charge of
the Montana exhibit, Immediately
after the awards were announced
on June 10, wired the result to
his friends in Montana, His
message said:
The following awards for
Montana in the agricultural de-
partment have been announced
by the superior jury at the Pan
ama-Pacifc exposition: Grand
prize for best cereals exhibited
at exposition; nine medals of
honor on wheat, oats, barley,
flax, peas, grain and grasses;
general agricultural products, 73
gold medals, 236 silver medals,
295 bronze medals and 100 hon
orable mention. The superior
jury has not completed it's work
but supposition prevails that
Montana has easily Won more
awards than any other state or
foreign nation exhibiting in the
agricultural department. Mon
tana has accomplished this with
an appropriation less than half
that of any other state or nation
exhibiting for awards in expo
sition palaces. "
F. S. Lusk of Missoula, to
whom the foregoing telegram
was sent, and Who is a member
Of the Montana commission, up
on reading the joyful news, said:
This means more for the state
of Montana than can be eX-
pressed in words.
ITO have Montana-looked up
on by a great majority of the
people of the east as nothing but
a rough, mountainous country,
where we do nothing but raise
sheep and dig after copper-win
more agricultural prizes than any
other state in the Union at this
world exposition will give it a
standing that could never be OBJ
tanned in any other way"
The Ronan pioneer., 1915-06-18

We have a healthy respect and
a high regard for the man or
woman who has something good
to say of others. We are all to
prone to magnify the defects and
forget the good qualities Of our
friends and neighbors, appar-
emily forgetful of the fact that
there is good in all people, and
that little assistance and encour-
agement will ofttimes bring to
the surface sterling qualities that
have lain dormant for years.
Speak the good word.

club meetings and mouth about
the necessity of the people buy
ing at home.
The Independent has a pay
roll of $65, 600 per annum and
the corporation itself buys a large
amount of supplies in the city of
Helena. Many of the bills of it's
employees come to the Indepen-
dent office. A member of the
Helena Typographical union kept
track of the matter June l, just
for curiosity. Nine out of ten of
the bills rendered the Indepen-
dent and it's employees came in
envelopes printed by the govern
ment of the United States.
What do you think of that?
One big store, where the In
dependent and many Of it's en-
ployees buy supplies each month,
not only sends it's bills in govern
ment envelopes, but renders it's
bills to Helena printers, publish
ers and newspaper makers on
bill heads printed at a cheap
shop down in Minnesota.
What do you think of that,
Mr.. Commercial Club Member?
1t is very beautiful to have a
newspaper everlastingly ham,
mering the ordinary common
people about buying in Helena,
but why in the name of heaven
be so inconsistent about it?
Why beg Helena people to
trade with you, Mr.. Merchant,
then send them their bills on
stationery printed in Minnesota
and enclosed in envelopes printed
by the government of the United
States, which never bought a
thing Of you since the Liberty
Bell rang and never will until
the country is swallowed up in
chaos and night?
The people are onto some of
the merchants in Helena. That
is why they send to the mail
order houses in the east. They
follow the example Of the Helena
merchant who sends away for
everything he does not keep in
stock himself.
The Montana Made" move
ment was a great thing. They
preached it to beat the band.
Then we saw the organizer of
Jne proposition open up a store
and fill it with candy made in
Milwaukee, Chicago and Kanka-
kee-anything to keep from SELL
ing Helena or Montana made
candy.
Beautiful dreams, home pat
ronage, Montana made, buy at
home and help your neighbor and
he will help you.
May they some day come true
they are as misty now as the
Brotherhood of Man. Helena

WHEN THE FARMER
COMES TO Town

UUMLu IL IUuu
How do you greet the farmer
when he comes to town? Is your
greeting such that he feels that
he is with us, but not of us? Or
is he made to feel that he is in
his town, among his people, and
with his friends?
The making or the marring of
this town depends greatly upon
your attitude toward the farmer
when he favors US with his visits.
He is the backbone of the COM
munity, and without his aid and
encouragement we would be an
unsuccessful business commun-
ity. The townsman is no better
than the man from the farm, and
the farmer can claim no superior
ity over the townsman. We are
all human beings, with the same
aims and purposes in life, and
endowed with the same brands
of intelligence. In fact, we are
brothers of a common commun-
ity, the only difference being
that the one lives in town, where
life is a little more diversified,
while the other brea thes Gods
pure air in the green fields of the
country.
When we ride out into the
country the farmer extends the
hand of fellowship, bids us well
come, and hands us a hearty
come again. 1t is delightful
characteristic of the man from
the farm, for his greeting is sin
cere and his invitation is from
the heart.
But what of US when the
farmer comes to town? Is our
welcome on the same high plane
as his? Is he made to feel and
realize that our smile is for HIM,
and not for the contents of his
purse? We of the town are
proud of the farmers of this COM
munity, and of their wives and
daughters. They are men and
women of a high order of intel
ligence, whose integrity is be-
yond question, and whose thrift,
and energy and perseverance is
transforming our countryside in
to a hive of industry and wealth.
They are builders, one and all.
But we fear that we of the
town are often forgetful of the
great duty we owe to them for
their loyalty and generosity in
support of the local business
community. We ourselves know
of the high regard in which we
hold the farmers of this COM
munity, but we doubt if the
farmer knows of the warm senti-
ment which we entertain toward
him.
And this is because we think
much and say too little. Let us
of the town cultivate a more
friendly and neighborly spirit,
let us open up our hearts that the
farmer may look within, for we
are but one big family and should
dwell together in unity and
brotherly love.
Let us act as we feel, and give
the farmer to understand that
he is of US, as we'll as with u.s.
We need each other, for a pros
porous farming community
makes a live town, and the pros
perity of the town adds life and
enjoyment the countryside.

as the liquid, will make over 800
loaves Of bread, making the cost q
little over az cents per Loaf
The argument may be advanced
that no account is taken Of fuel and
labor. The fuel cost is comparatively
slight, even when the bread is the
only thing in the oven.
As far as labor goes, IL the house
wife will choose her -four for its easy
handling qualities, she can reduce her
labor to an uncomfortable item. Some
flours require very little kneading
and preparation.
From the standpoint Of actual
money cost and food value, home

any home. Most housewives use milk

this adds somewhat to the cost, It also
adds immeasurably to the flavor and
