Stewart Addresses Women.

Stewart Addresses women.
Addressing the delegates In attend
ance at the first annual convention of
the Congressional union, an organiza-
ton having for its object the adoption
the Susan B. Anthony amendment TO
the federal constitution, Gov. s.. v.
Stewart said it was right that the wo-
men should take active interest in poll
tics and the questions of the day, but
that because of the grave ~exigencies
that have presented themselves, it
would be unwise to demand that things
which any one organization may deem
all important to be given preference
over the graver problems. He added
he would advise the women of Mon
tana as an organization to urge those
things upon congress which are deem
ed i%nopportune to the exclusion Of
graver matters. He said he had been
informed the union was a political
catspaw of the republican party, but
in view of the fact the women had
been given the franchise through the
instrumentality of no party, he believ-
ed the women were too loyal, and too
intelligent to align themselves with
any party other than for a lofty pur-
pose.

F16I0Hds
According to information received at
State Auditor Keating's Office, Mon
tana lands stand the highest in produc-
ing value of any state in the union,
taking the United States as a whole
as a basis for comparison.
The yield in bushels places Montana
at the top by a big margin, in wheat,
oats and potatoes, for a period of ff-
teen years. The average yield per acre
of the United States is 14.3 in wheat,
1913 in oats, and So in potatoes. That
of Montana is 52.4 in wheat, 1872 in
oats, and 14S in potatoes. Taking the
the comparison by states, the nearest
approach to Montana in wheat is Iowa.
with 17.7 bushels; in oats. Ohio, with
1877, and in potatoes, Ohio, with 81.
Expressed in what the farmer gets
out of the crops for fifteen years, Mon
tana shows, per acre, $18.87 in wheat.
$17.63 in oats, and $3.50 in potatoes.
Iowa, in wheat, shows $13.49 per acre,
and Ohio $12.52 in oats, and Kansas
$3.50 in potatoes. the states nearest
approaching Montana's record.

Forest Reserve Funds Paid.
State Auditor VIM. Heating has just
compiled a table showing the amount
of the forest reserve money accruing
from the sale of timber in national
forests, which the various counties
will receive.
According to the statement, the
counties will get $79,5S9.78. AS a mat
ter of fact, there was due the coun-
ties $107, 684.61, but the funds are not
available for paying the full sum. This
leaves a balance to be paid amount
ing to $~27,994.S3.
Flathead, Park, Sander and Teton
counties are not included in the list
of counties receiving this forest re-
serve fund, they having been over
paid in past years.

Mr.. Miller calls attention to the fact
that there are thousands of acres of

which will net a neat profit to the
