Designers are also presenting hats
for motor wear that are cleverly made
to do duty as street hats as well. They
are soft and close-fitting and made of
the same materials as the bonnets.
But in combinations OF braids with
fabrics there is more braid and less
fabric than in the regulation motor
bonnet. They are more trimmed and
their wells are entirely separate. The
tourist who does not wish to be bur-
dened with an extra hat on a short
journey finds this style convenient.
Compared to other classes OF head
wear the motor hat is most modest in
price. No one should be Indifferent,

shapes and colors that promise some
thing becoming for every face.

SAFETY FIRST"

Automobile accidents, with the re-

les occupy big share of the front
pages of the big dailies. Careless
ness is one of the chief causes of
these tragedies which could have been
avoided in most cases.

holders which are not to his liking,
but considering the source, the people
Of the county will know how seriously
to take them.

WHAT NEXT?

When it comes to downright asinine
inconsistency and deliberate misrepre-
sentation in exposing (?) the acts of
county officials, the prize goes to the
editor of the Valley County News.
Under the heading of "What Next" :"
the official scandal monger of the
county, under cover of the death of a
county official, takes exceptions to the
actions of the board of county COM
missioners for appointing successor
to the late Walter Stanley, as Clerk
of Court.
The question of respect or propriety
in making the appointment when they
did was not up to the commissioners.
Upon the death of the officeholder, a
vanacy existed, which under the law
cannot be, and it had to be filled with
out delay. The work of the Clerk of
Court is such that should a vacancy
exist, it will tie up the workings of
the District Court, retard the Natur-
alization proceedings and prevent the
turning of the wheels of justice.
There is nothing in the state laws
which will permit closing the Office
for an indefinite period out of respect
for the person who held it, and the
commissioners were duty bound to see
that the office was filled, and without
any delay.
There was not the slightest tinge
of disrespect in making the appoint
ment; they took into consideration
everything that had bearing on the
matter, and they decided for the best
interests of the people.
If not prompted by malicious mo-
tives in the arraignment of the COM
missioners for this act, we would ask
the News editor, why he did not take
the Board of County Commissioners
to task on the occasion when O. S.
Cutting was appointed Clerk and Re-
corder within twenty-four hours after
the death of J. w. Dale. Mr.. Dale
died late in the evening of December
22nd, 1914, and the Board of County
Commissioners appointed his success

CHRISTMAS ADVERTISING

The slogan of "Do Your Christmas
Shopping Now" might most appro-
priately be made to read "Advertise
Now" There is a potent reason why
this should be done, and the merchant
who gets the biggest share of the
early Christmas trade is the one who
deos his Christmas advertising first.
By advertising is meant, not only
newspaper advertising but the dis
play of the articles in the windows
or on the shelves, or by creating talk
about them. But by far the best
method is to put an ad in the local pa
per, where it can reach everybody and
be read by them. The initial cost is
small compared with the increased
amount Of business derived from it.
Place an ad in the Courier now,
that the people may know that you
have Christmas goods for them to
buy, and the prices they can get them
for, and you'll be surprised at the re-
suits you will get. And when the
holiday season is over, you will find
that there is no more potent factor in
making a "dull" season olive" than
advertising.

NEW FLAX INDUSTRY

Within the last two years new in
dustry has been established in Mon
tana-an industry with almost un-
limited possibilities as source Of
wealth to the state. This is the
growing of fax for fiber together
with the manufacture of the fiber it.
self from the harvested stalks. To-
day Montana is the only state in the
Union in which flax is grown for fiber
and it has, at Conrad, in Teton coun-
ty, the only flax fiber mill in the
United States. Here the fiber is sep
arated from the straw by secret
process, invented by George Pearson,
chemist and resident manager-a bac-
THEOLOGICAL process that completes
the retting in 48 hours, or at the
most 72 hours; whereas from five to
eight weeks are consumed by the dew
retting process used in most of the.
factories abroad and nearly as long
is required by the water retting proc
ess in vogue in other mills.
Within the last two or three years
Montana has advanced from fourth to
third place in the production of fax
for seed. In 1900 not bushel of flax
either for seed or fiber was produced
in Montana. In 1901, 16 acres were
planted to seed flax and in 1902, 12,500
acres. Last year the production was
100000 bushels, while the United
States department of agriculture esti-
mates that this years production is
2,OS3, 900 bushels. The state with the
largest production on the showing Of
this years estimates is North Dakota
with 7,752,000 bushels, Minnesota
coming second with 2,984,000 bushels.
"Flax does not do as we'll on the
same land until after other crops have
been raised and the land put into
grass again. when it is ready to be
broken up for a few fax seed beds.
The old prevalent idea that the fax
crop is very exhausting to soil fertil-
ity has been shown to be fallacy,
and it has been proved that it does not
tax the soil fertility as much as either
wheat or oats"
