New Grain Law
Has Big Benefits
Federal Grain Inspection is
Welcomed By The
Farmers

Montana is one of the states
that will be vitality affected by
the United States grain standard
law. which the government is
now preparing to put into effect.
Under the authority of the
act. passed by congress on Aug.
II. 1916. the United States de-
partment of agriculture is engag-
ed in formulating grain stand
ards for the northwestern states
which will become authorita-
tive for this region with regard
to all grainsiin interstate ship
ments and which when estab-
lished and in operation under
competent inspectors. are ex-
pected to settle the lonestanding
difficulties between the buyers
and sellers of commercial grains
as to the proper grading of the
product.
The grain farmers of Montana
and other states for years have
been convinced that they were
defrauded by the undererading
of their wheat and other grains
at st. Paul. Minneapolis and
other grain-buyine centers, and
this law is expected to end this
complaint by establishing fair
grading and fair treatment of
the farmers by the great eleva-
tor companies and other buyers.
No industrial controversies
have been more bitter in re-
cen. years than those between
farmers of the great grain
growing states and the buyers
at the great grain terminal mar
kets. Even within the last few
months complaints have been
made that immense frauds
are practiced by the great ele-
vator and warehouse interests.
1t has been charged that the
buyers made immense profits
by purchasing great quantities
of grain that they insisted was
low grade and subsequently
mixing it with high grade
grain. and then selling the
whole as high grade grain.
Under the new law inspec-
tors will be located at all points
in the state where needed. They
will have to qualify under the
federal law, but will be ap-
pointed and paid by the state.
Under the new system when
the grain has been graded and
the grade duly made known
by a properly licensed inspec-
tor at the place of production.
that grade will hold for that
grain at the terminals. unless
an appeal in proper form. some
error or fraud is clearly made
out. Disputes between buyer
and seller will thus in most
cases be prevented. and when
they arise an orderly method of
settlement is provided.

Halvorson states.
The present Metropolissn
hotel is considered one Of the
best in northern MontaIla.
When it was erected, about
six years ago, local citizens
and the travelling blic
wondered if a hotel of such
magnitude and class would
pay in Cut Bank. Here; ;isAa
little sermon against doing
things by halves--in a town
of the promise of Cut Baak. .
The Metropolitan was too
big for the town only fora
short time. Now it 10 fat too
small and a hotel of city, pre-
tention is justified in the
judgment of the owners.

Washinfton, D. C., June 19.-Bas- sano, one of the picturesque towns ot northern Italy, lying in the direct path of an invasion of Venetia, should the Austrians ever succeed in their drive down the Sugana Valley, is the subject of the war geography bulletin of the National Geographic society is- sued today from it's Washington head quarters. The bulletin gives the fol- lowing interesting historical and com mercial data concerning this town of bulent Brenta river, twenty miles south of the Tyrolean border and thirty miles north of Padua:
 For sentimental rather than strate- gic reasons the Austrian forces would be overjoyed if the fortunes of war should cause Bassano to fall into their hands, for 1t was before this city that Napoleon achieved his first signal success in his remarkable cam paign of September 1796, when his in fantry covered a distance of 114 miles in six days, besides winning three battles from the Austrian troops. Thirteen years after his victory at Bassano Napoleon raised the town to a duchy and conferred the dukedom upon his devoted secretary of state, Maret the French journalist and Gip- lOnat who shares with Daru the dis tinction of having been one of the hardest workers in the service of the great Corsican.
 "Bassano is one of the infant ci- ties of Northern Italy, judged by the age standards of Vicenza, Verona, Venice, Padua and other muncipan- ties of Venetia, although it was six hundred years old when the first per manent English settlement was made in Am erica. few years after it was founded in the eleventh cen- tury the district was given as lief to Eccelin, a German follower of Conrad II. Eccelin founded the fa- nous Ezzelini family which dominat- ed this town and neighboring cities from time to time during the middle ages. The most powerful of these

The Editors Record.

The editor died and went to heaven. But stood outside the gate Because he hadn't the nerve to knock And thought that he would wait Till some other mortals came along: He'd then see what they'd do, And if they entered the pearly gate He thought he might slip through. He watched the vast procession pass Up to the portals wide, While Peter told some they were up
 too high,
 And others he took inside. The editor, weary Of waiting so long, Finally got in line To see if Peter would accept him then Or would with thanks" decline, He heard the sweet voiced angels
 sing.
 His eyes filled to the brim. He shivered' and shook in agony, Knowing his chances slim. Anal said Peter, An editor here?'' Gle laughed with pure delight.) ''Why, certainly you may come right

He not -only held Bassano, but, with the aid of the emperor, extended his sway over Ver- ] ona, Vicenza, Padua and Treviso. Eventually Pope Alexander " de- clared a crusade against him, where upon he made an attempt to invest

Enraged at his ill-fortune in falling into the hands of his enemies, he tore the bandages from his wounds and refused all food thus coming to much more tragic end than did his compatriot in arms, Enzio, a natural son of Emperor Frederick, who was captured in 1249 and held a prison CT in Bologna for the remainder of his life. Enzios twenty-three years of confinement were solaced by the de-
