APPROVAL.
Order Is Made With Idea of Prevent
ing Spread of ANY Contagious Dis
eases; Goods Sent Out Cannot Be
Returned to Mercantile Houses.

Bozeman.-It was the late Robert
G. Ingersol who spoke Of the capital
Of the gallatin empire as ga dimple
on the fair face of nature" Now a
dimple, in order to be beautiful; must
be clean. Bozeman is clean and pro-
poses to stay so. Her health board is
taking every precaution to prevent
the spread Of any bacteria that might
be brought into the valley through
goods shipped in from the outside.
No Goods On Approval.
The Bozeman board of health has
just decreed that the old custom of
dealers sending wearing apparel to
homes on approval must be done away
with. Goods sent out to a residence
must be retained. It cannot come
back to the store and be put back In
stock.
Would Gather Germs.
The health board contends that
goods sent to the home of some per.
son where disease of a contagious ma.
ture existed would become charged
with the. microbes of the disease
while it was in the infected house, and
on its return to the mercantile stab.
lishmnt would take with it the germs
and facilitate the spread of disease
and an order forbidding the return Of
goods has just been issued.

Sidney. = Another inland empire
will be opened up when the Great
Northern's branch railroad, now
building through Dawson and Fergus
counties, is completed. This wide ex-
panse of territory, without transpor-
tation, stretches east and west across
the fertile prairies Of eastern Mon
tana for a distance of over 200 miles.
1t is big enough, and the soil is rich
enough to support a population of So
900 people. The soil responds quickly
to cultivation. The greater portion
of this section of Montana is as fer
tile as the Judith basin, which is the
last word in productiveness.
Settlers are rushing into this sec
ton of the state in hundreds, and
nearly every available subdivision of
land has been filed upon by the home
steader. Homes are going up in every
direction, and fields are being titled.
By the time the railroad is complet-
ed from Lambert to Grass Range, it
will be a titled land of substance. Even
now, two years in advance of the COM
ing of steel, thousands of farmers are
coaxing the raw lands into a state of
profitable cultivation.

Federation Of Agriculture and
Labor Federation to Cooperate

The state Federation Of Labor closed
a most successful session of four days
last night, with a smoker in the rooms
OF the Boise Trades and Labor council
Yesterday afternoon the most import
ant action taken was the passage of a
resolution urging closer utilization be-
tween labor organizations Of the state
and the state federation of agriculture
The resolution is as follows:
Whereas, 1t is apparent that the In
terests of the farmer and the laborer
in the city are mutual and that they
do not understand the aims and objects
of each others organizations as they
should, Therefore be it
Resolved. that we indorse the plan
of farmers organizations and labor or

that as consumers of the farmers pro-

The shay railroad of the Empire
Copper company is being operated

two trains and the night crew one,

each trip a Short Line steel railroad
car is brought down from the mine,
making Ave cars each day in all, OF a
capacity of $50 tons of ore containing
good values in copper. gold and silver.
With the present price Of copper this
record production means a great deal
to Mackay. The pay rolls for the next
few months will no doubt be larger
than they have been for years.
The ore is all shipped to Garfield.

Mines and Mining
Negotiating Sale Of Mines.
Miner, Maekay.)

Mining men are looking towards
MaelSay and Central Idaho for real
mines and they are finding them. The
latest negotiations cover the sale OF
the Anderson and Rosencrans groups
Of copper claims in Copper basin. Both
groups ad1oin the Reed q Davidson
property, now owned and operated by
the Copper Basin Mining company,
whose operations recently began, and
are quite extensive. considering the
limited amount of development work
the property has undergone.
Eastern capitalists are said to have
practically completed a deal for the
Anderson and Rosencrans ground and
are expected to arrive in the city soon
to finally complete the deal and map
out a campaign of development work
and ore production. Both groups are
large and the work that has been done
discloses some very extensive and ex-
tremely rich ore bodies.
With another concern operating in
the basin this summer the output and
increased revenue to Mackay win be
greatly increased.

WOO | WILL co TO
50 CENTS A POUND
Prediction Made by secre.
tary of National Wool
Growers Association.

. Wool will go to 33 cents a pound this
year with profit to the Idaho sheep
men and flock owners. This is the
prediction made by S. w Mcclure,
secretary pf the National Wool Grow
ers' association, wen known to all Ida
no sheeprhen. He takes a most OPP
tomistic view Of the present situation
and his prediction win be heralded with
pleasure w sheepmen. Already some
of them have been informed that in
Montana this seasons clip has been
contracted for at 81 cents.
Mr.. Mcclure was at Gooding, his
former home. recently and in discuss
ing the wool situation he stated that
nearly 7.0b0,000 pounds OF Montana
wool had been sold for 81 to 80 cents
and he expected the price to reach 80
cents
The wool growers Of Utah seemed to
be nhastt this year to dispose Of their
clips and the report is current that
Eastern houses have contracted for
more than so per cent Of the clips at
prices ranging from 81 to % cents. In
Nevada sd per cent OF the wool has
been contacted, while the growers Of
Montana and Wyoming have let go of
but five per cent IN Idaho Is per cent
Of the WOOL has been contracted. A
At illon, Mont, wool clip was sotdV
recently al 80 cents and other smaller
clips at 81 cents. William Bernstein,
buyer for An eastern firm. offered Har-
ry Addrua Of Dillon SO cents for his
wool, which was refused, as Mr.. An
drus is confident Of receiving a higher
price. Some contracting has been 60

Is reported that Smith Bros. have sold
their clip at "a cents.
Shearina has commenced in Arizona,
but growers are demanding "a cents

The European war, which has been
the cause of the high price OF wool,
