Grain Prices

We note that the Great Falls
and other daily newspapers who
are printing articles from per-
sons who ought to be qualified
to speak and who are no doubt
actuated by the highest of
motives, advising farmers to
hold their wheat for higher
prices than the prices that now
prevail. We are not so sure
that this is good advice. This
is a matter upon which we pro-
fess little expert" knowledge,
we are free to admit. 1t has
been our observation, however,
that farmers who thresh early
and market their grain early
ealize better profits year after
year than those who hold their
grain for months, perhaps until
out into the following year.
There are many things to be
considered-interest, shrinkage.
the possibility of fire, being "a
few. There are also inter-
national considerations, such as
the fortunes of the big war. We
admit that the prospect at pre-
sent certainly favors the ar
gument for a still higher price.
We are not endeavoring to in
fluence farmers to hold or to
sell. But they should we'll con-
slider all the factors on both
sides of the matter and not be
influenced by such slogans as
$500 wheat"

LIGHT MATTER
IN SUSPENSION
Council to Draw Up An
Ordinance to Submit
to Applicants

The electric light matter is
still suspended in space.
Monday nights mass meeting
brought out a number of citizens
who may be rated among the
towns heaviest taxpayers. The
two franchise applications were
discussed and the feeling pre-
vailed that the rates set forth
were too high. The possibility
of the Great Falls Power Co.
extending it's line from Conrad
was discussed and it was gen.
orally agreed that this would
be greatly desired, but doubt
was expressed concerning the
possibility of this move for
many years and it was agreed
that Cut Bank was in need of a
lighting and power system right
now.
Martin Jacobson suggested
that the town, with the aid of
competent legal counsel, draw
up a franchise ordinance, en-
bodying, t h e requirements
which citizens in the meeting
suggested, as to rates, term of
years and other important stip-
ulations. A representative OF

these stipulations were within

ming and will take~ action to-
ward having this ordinance
drawn.
The Pioneer Press has can
vassed sentiment on the ligh
question pretty thoroughly
and finds no opposition, on tn
surface atleast. On the contrar!
it finds that the citizens of tn
town favor it heartily and d.
not wish to see the matter post
poned, provided a contract safe
guarding the towns interest
can be closed.

William Cramer, a Flathead

county, says the Kalispell Inter

circulating a circular containing
a list of candidates on both
tickets, advising the voters to
help the cause of the Guardians
of Liberty by voting for those
marked undesirable" The
words American" and Rom

and voters were advised to vote

BOOKS CLOSE
ON OCTOBER 7
Many In This Precinct
Have Not Registered
To Date

The registration books of
Teton county will close on Sept.
7th. 1t is probable that there
are 100 voters in the Cut Bank
precinct who did not register in
time for the primary election.
To those we would say: Reg
lister at the first opportunity.
We know of four or five who
delayed registering before the
primary and who regretted
their carleSsness keenly when
they realized that they had
friends whom they desired to
help. So-well, you know
but register today.
All who voted at the general
election in 1914 and have not
changed their address since that
time will not need to register
again in order to vote at the
election in November. However
if there is cny doubt about the
address it would be well to visit
the office of the registry and
agent and see if it is correctly
registered.
The women who have re-
gistered since the equal suffrage
law went into effect will not
have to register again unless
they have changed their ad-
dress.
A citizen who has changed
his address since registration,
unless his new residence is in
the same ward and precinct
where he formerly lived, must
have his address changed on the
register in order to vote. In
doing so he should simply notify
the clerk that the address is to
be changed and it will save him
much trouble.

the field and garden were dis
played in profusion and the
quality was of the very best.
The cattle and horses, swine,
chickens. turkeys, geese and
ducks would take blue ribbons
at larger fairs. Of course the

horses and cattle and the best
to be seen in this section were
