The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1916-07-14

close of last month, June 80, we
handled little over 26,000,0OO bush
els, or about 60 per cent of all grain
shipped from the state of Montana.
q feel that this. speaks well for
the interest taken by the various COM
munities along the line in co-operat-
ing with us and the colonizing and
homestead movements that we have
been carrying on since the Inaugural
ton of this policy which began at the
Billings dry farming congress in Octo-
Der, 1909.
Sat that time we endeavored to
convince the people of Montana and
the Northwest that Montana had good
arabic land as yet unoccupied and UNI
surveyed, equal to the entire area of
the state of Iowa. Montana as is gen
orally known is about three times the
size of Iowa. 1t has been our effort to
have this land surveyed and thrown
open to settlement, and as a result m
to March 81, 29,000,00O acres have been
homesteaded in the state in six wears. -

 SE[D DROPS 8

The price Of cotton on the Conway market was advanced a quarter-cent to IS 1-4 cents this afternoon as result of strong futures market to- day, during which the staple regained almost half its recent severe break. In New York, which opened at 1855 for January contracts, all months were carried up past the i9 cent mark, January closing at 1911 cents. Should the advance be held on the opening tomorrow, 1t is probable that price of at least Is l-2 cents will again be prevailing here.
 The rise was offset to some extent by a decline of 8 per ton in cotton seed. the sharpest drop that has oc- cured this season. Several of the buyers had their $58 limit withdrawn yesterday afternoon and the others followed today A break of about 5S points in the price Of cottonseed oil yesterday was responsible for the lower price of seed, 1t was stated

That the expedition of the "Arkan- sas-on-W Wheels" train will prove of great benefit to the state is the opip- ion of L. E. Halter, the Faulkner county representative, who returned to Conway last night. q had no idea that Arkansas could produce such things." was the exclamation, Mr. tialter says, which was heard hun dreds of times from the throngs who inspected the exhibits at various towns and cities in Mississippi. Ala bama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia. Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri at which the big train made stops.
 The Faulkner county exhibit seem ed to attract more than ordinary ia yorable comment, Mir. Halter stated, and be was kept busy at every stop answering questions regarding this section of the state. It was conceded by all on the train, he stated, that the booklet prepared and printed by the Conway Printing Company, ad- vertlSing the resources of Conway and Faulkner county was the handsomest piece of literature handed out, and al though he was careful to give the booklets only to those he thought would be interested, he said he could have given out 10000 or more if he lad oeen supplied with them.
 A q South Carolina stop Mir Hal ter aid he met a man who had pack ed up his goods to move to Oklahoma, but after an inspection of the train he immediately changed his mind and decided to move to Arkansas instead
 The trip has convinced me of one thing.' said Mir Halter, "and that is that Faulkner county, Arkansas, is truly the garden spot of the south. All through the portion of the south through which we passed crops this year Ire practically failure, and in many sections it will take 40 acres of co ton to make a bale. My advice to ali these people was to come to Faulkner county, where such a thing as 2 crop failure is unknown"
