Report From Reservation,
Stewart Says, Called
for Ready Cash.

Helena, April o1,--A report sent to
the state council of defense to the
effect that 100000 was needed in Mis-
soula county to help the farmers put
in an increased acreage was not, ac-
cording to Frank S. lusk president of
the First National bank of Missoula,
founded on fact. This report was
made to the state council by the presi-
dent Of a small bank on the rcscrva-
ton.
Governor Stewart has received a
letter from Mr.. Lusk in which the let
ter says that Missoula county is amply
able to take care of all of its farmers
in connection with financing them for
crop purposes and that the banks in
Missoula have ample funds to assist
the banks in the smaller communities
where such help is needed.
1T is to be regretted" writes Mr.
Iusk, that this report should have
been made, because it does a very
great injustice to the finan cial ability

Bonner. Park
Donors Suggest Name for
New City Playground.

Bonner Park" will he suggested
as name for the new city play
ground on the south side, it was
reported at the city hall yester-
day And inasmuch as the sug-
scstion comes from the South Mis-
soula Land company, donors of
the park. the city commission
probably will ACCEPT it. The name
will be in honor of the late E. l..
Bonner from whom Missoula's
nearest neighbor took its name.
Whatever the parks name is to
be, work which was begun yester-
day on the site will be hurried, ac-
cording to Commissioner John
Brechbill. City scrapers have been
set at the task of leveiing the roll
ing prairie where the park is to be.
AS soon as possible trees and grass
will be planted.
Because of persistent work since
last fall Greenough park is already
in good condition. Mr.. Arechbill
says. The commissioner wants,
however. to build storm shelter
in the park and if the fund holds
out he probably will ask for per-
mission to erect refuge near what
is called pine tree grove

Grass to Stay
Milwaukee Won't Raise
Spuds in Station Here.

a report that the Milwaukee
railroad officials had ordered the
cultivation of the parks around the
stations for the increase in the
food supply was denied by
Superintendent Il. T.. Willard of
the Missoula division yesterday.
He stated that he had not as yet
received orders to that effect. The
park at the local station would be
rather hard to cultivate, being at
an angle of about 30 degrees from
the perpendicular. 1t is one of the
most carefully tended and attrac-
tive parks in the city.
