AUTOMOBILE USED TO
HAUL THE HAY CROP
CALIFORNIA FARMER USES HIS
MACHINE TO VERY GOOD
ADVANTAGE.

Old Dobbin, through the progress
iveness of the California rancher, has
come into his own on broader
scale in this state than elsewhere in
the country, according to the best
available data. In this great common
wealth much of the work done on the
ranches, both in the central valleys
and in the mountain counties, which
in the past has been accomplished
chiefly with the horse, is now being
done in the more modern way with the
motor car.
John r. Leland, a prosperous
rancher of the Santa Cruz mountains,
furnishes striking example of the
uses to which the rancher puts his
motor car. During the past haying
season Leland hauled all of his hay
from the fields to the stacks, dis
tance of nearly one mile, with the aid
of his Maxwell touring car. Leland
would load the cut hay on an ordin-
ary hay wagon, then tow the latter
fro mthe field with his car. Leland
has many other uses for his car and
states that he would be absolutely at
a loss without his machine while at
work on the ranch

there Immediately became available
for road construction within the sew
eral states, the sum of $5,OOO,OOO, or
a total of $75,O0O,O00 to be expended
within the next five years.
These expenditures will be made
upon the main through tonnage high
ways that now serve or may serve
as post roads of the United States,
each states apportionment being de-
termined annually one-third in the
ratio of area to that of the total area
of all the states, one-third in the ra
ito which the population of the state
bears to the total population. and one
third in relation to the total mileage
of post roads.
Of this first $5,00O,O00 available
for the fiscal year 1916-1917 Mon
tana's share will be $9S,2S7. The
apportionment will increase each year
in proportion to the amount avail
able for each fiscal year. The Mon
tana share will be, approximately, for
the year 1918, 100000; for the Near
1919, $2OOOOO; for the year 1920,
100000; for the year 1921, $780,

FORD DISTRIBUTION
IS REV0LUTI0NIZED
GARAGE OWNERS WILL ACT AS
SELLING AGENTS IN FU-
TURE.

Some idea of the magnitude Of the
business done by the Ford company
may be had when it is known that the
census bureau of the federal govern
ment recently announced that the to-
tai registration of all ears in the Unit
ed States for this year was 2,445,644.
OF this grand total the Ford factory
supplied 533,921.
Recent extensions to the Ford fac
tory will make it possible to turn out
100000 cars next year.
Montana dealers are showing the
new Ford car. 1t departs from the
standard type in that it has stream
line hood, rounded radiator and
crowned tenders.
The method of distribution is to be
changed. State distributors will re-
strict themselves to wholesaling, and
owners of garages will act as retail
agents.
Prices are to be considerably re-
duced.

Benjamin Harrison, later president of

called with the sale of "Lucerne,'

In those days, which were in the
early eighties, General Harrison, as
chairman of the committee on terri
tories Of the United States senate,
was an ardent advocate of the ad-
mission to statehood of North Dakota,
South Dakota, Washington, Idaho and
Montana. When he became president
he put his signature to laws making
them all states Of the Union. General
Potts, who had been governor from
1870, when he was appointed by Pres
ident Grant, to 1882, was then a mem
Der Of the territorial legislature and a
resident of Helena.
After the death Of these two men
the property passed into the hands of
the American Sheep and Land com
pany of which Messrs. Cans and
Klein were the principal owners. Sew
en- years ago the Townsend Realty &
Investment company took over the
property.

VOTES TO HOLD FAIR

That was definitely decided at a
conference with the Fair association
when the county commissioners voted
to lease the grounds for period of
10 years. IF at the end of that time
the rental is all paid, the land auto
matically becomes the property.
The movement to establish an an
nual fair has been backed for some
time by leading farmers of this sec
ton, especially by members of the
Pure Bred Livestock association. The
prizes won by Fergus county at the
state fair have provided an additional
incentive for the farmers of the com-
ty to display their products at home.

To Be Negligent.
In an action against mining com.
pany for injury to an employe while
being hoisted up an inclined shaft, due
to the ore bucket in which he was
riding leaving the skids upon which
1t ran, it is held that the evidence
warranted findings that the accident
was caused by negligence of the hoist
ing engineer in hosting the bucket at
full speed, and not through a tamping
through previous practice at the mine,
signals given the engineer sufficiently
indicated that man was to be hoist
ed.
Negligence Of the engineer In this
respect cannot be excused on the
ground that the hosting signals given
him did not conform to those pre-
scribed by statute, 1t being sufficient
that he should have understood from
established custom in the mine that
man was to be hoisted. california
