DON'T NEED EARS TO HEAR.

According to scientists, fish can
hear, but not with ears The outside
of the ear is not necessary for hear
ing. It is possible to hear through
the teeth. AS long as vibration
reaches the brain, the object hears,
for sound is only motion. Put pen
Gil between the teeth, they assert, and
hold it against the sounding board
of a piano, with the ears muffled, and
the tone is heard through the teeth.
Just as sensitive is the sense Of taste.

It is better because of superior con-

performs. It is built right and stays
right during it's life.
It is better because it has the best
features of all the other grain binders
and important exclusive features Of
it's own, such as quick turn truck

ably in excess of the average returns
received under normal conditions.
Large crop production and demand
that resulted in high prices formed a
combination of circumstances from
which the producer derived exception
al benefit.
Montana livestock products also
shared in the general advance in
prices that was due in part to the
conditions caused by the European
war. Meat animals have found pur-
chasers at high range of values;
Montana horses have sold at remark
ably good prices and Montana wool
has brought greater returns than
have been obtained in the past thirty
years.
The Montana mining industry, &C.
cording to advices from Butte, was
never in a more prosperous condition.
More men are employed in Montana
mines than in any former period, and
the output of the various metals is
the largest on record. In all the var
ious industries in which Montana citi-
zens are engaged, the year 1915 was
a season Of exceptional activity and
satisfactory reward.
It is believed similar conditions will
obtain throughout the present year,
although conservative business men
counsel prudence in basing expecta-
tions upon continuance of abnormal
conditions. They suggest a policy of
preparedness" for the future, when
the stimulating effect of the Eur
opean war may cease to exist. The
warning may be worthy of considera-
tion by Montana citizens who are
tempted to assume that the unusual
conditions of the year 1915 may con-
tinue indefinitely.

MONTANA,S BEST YEAR.

Citizens of Montana who are ia
miliar with conditions in various
parts of the state give testimony that
the year 1916 was the best in Mon
tana history. In no former period
Of twelve months has there been such
general prosperity in the industrial
pursuits in which residents of Mon
tana are engaged. and which contri-
butte to the material welfare of the
community. says the River Press.
The tide of immigration has con-
tinued throughout the year, and an
increased acreage of the public do
main has been brought under cultiva-
ton. New settlements have been
formed, and the older towns and set
Elements have expanded to larger pro-
portions. Among the beneficent re-
suits of this growth and development
is a large increase in the number of
schools, churches and other institu-
tions in which the educational and
moral welfare of Montana's present
and future citizenship are given en-
couragement.
The Montana farming industry was
especially favored by the exceptional
conditions that prevailed during the
year 1916. The season was unusu-
ally favorable for crop production,
and the yields in various parts of the
state were considerably larger in the
average per acre and in acreage un-

year. Most of these crops found a
market at wartime prices that
brought well-earned profit to the
producers, and which were consider

PAPER FROM FLAX STRAW.

Attention is called to the feasibility
of making paper from flax straw and
thus utilizing the waste of the flax
crop, where it is grown for seed,
by bulletin just issued by the Uni
ted States department of agriculture
says the Billings Gazette.
In this bulletin it is shown that the
paper making possibilities of the
waste flax straw which now goes up
in smoke, is equal to the annual pro-
duction of wrapping paper and more
than double the annual production of
writing paper. The Investigations
have also shown that it is feasible to
make counter boards and other paper
products from the flax straw. EN-
phasis is laid upon the fact that the
materials for which the flax straw
could be substituted are now imported
and it's use in the manufacture of
writing paper for instance only de-
pends upon whether it could success
fully compete with the foreign pro
ducts.
1t is made plain therefore that an
other infant industry might be devel-
oped in this country if it were given
the benefit of wise protective tariff.
Not only would the protection of such
an industry mean an increased reve-
nue. of several million dollars annually
to the American farmer, it would
mean an increase in millions in wages
to American workingmen and the up
building of several prosperous manu-
featuring institutions.
1t would seem that with the elimi-
nation of freight rates on the straw
to the eastern centers where it can
now be used in paper making which
Montana, in the heart of the flax
country, offers the development of a
paper making industry from flax
straw in this state might become very
profitable.
The rapid depletion of our forests
means that some other kind of pulp
besides wood must be found from
which to make the great amount of
paper that is consumed daily through
out the country.
With cheap power, plenty of water
and a territory adjacent that pro-
duces an unlimited amount of flax
straw annually Billings offers good
opportunities for the development of
the paper making industry.
