SAYS POTATOES
WILL ADVANCE
BUTTE PRODUCE DEALER PRE-
Diets PRICE WILL REACH
81 IN THE SPRING.
Montana Has Shipped More Than IS
Per Cent of Its Crop: Advance Will
Continue Until Next July, When
California Crop Is Harvested;
Calls for Quotations Received.

Mr.. Farmer, if you have a few hun
dred bushels of nice, dry, mealy po-
tatoes in the cellar, do not sell them
because the price is high. In a short
time they are due for another sharp
advance, and further advances are
expected in he spring. The potato
crop is very short in the east, and
eastern produce dealers are buying
Montana potatoes, wherever they
can find them.
Although Idaho, Montana and
Washington have shipped out the
greater part of their potato supply in
the past two months and have hardly
more than enough for seed purposes
in the spring, next month will see a
great movement of spuds from the
northwest to eastern markets. This
is the statement made recently by H.
E. Morier of the Morier Produce COM
pany of Butte.
Shipping Spuds East.
I'VE have received four tele-
grams from Minneapolis asking for
prices on first quality potatoes" he
announced. I'VE will be able to
load about 10 cars ourselves, and
other dealers here will be able to
make up a large quantity for ship
ment. Most of the Butte firms
have received orders for immediate
shipments to the east"
Mr.. Morier said that the effect on
the price of potatoes in Butte will be
immediate. Potatoes have been sell.
I'M Cor Q nav n vyoiohf f0r the
past four weeks. within the next 20
days the price will jump to about
$3.50 or 1915 per hundredweight.'
he said. II cannot say what the
price may be in the spring, but would
not be surprised if it reaches 81 pei
hundredweight by April.
There is about a 6O-day supply o.
potatoes in Butte, the produce mar
said. Montana has already shipped
out more than IS per cent of it's sea
sons crop. Washington has shipped
about so per cent of it's crop ant
Idaho about IS per cent. Washing
ton dealers are receiving daily call:
from the California market for pc
tatoes.
"The three northwestern potato
states will have to use about one
half of their present supply Tor SEED
ing purposes in the spring." says Mr.
Morier. "The other one-half is scarce
ly enough to last these states unit
spring. If it is taken into consider
alton that a great part of this amour
will be shipped to the east within q
days, the next month should see tn
beginning of an unusual potato fam
inc in the northwest"
Little relief may be expected be
fore the LIST of July next year. New
potatoes from California in carload
lots may be expected from the 1Otl
to the 18th of July. Crates of earl.
potatoes from California and Texa'
come to Butte as early as April, blu
are of such small. q antity and o
such prohibitive price that they cal
hardly be expected to fill the genera
demand.

WOMEN OF BUTTE
GIVE UP BOYCOTT
HOUSEWIVES LEAGUE SEEKS
TO FIND OTHER MEANS OF
REDUCING LIVING COST.
Officers of Organization Correspond
ing With Outside Dairy Interests
in Hope of Inducing Them to Fur
nish Supplies at Cheaper Prices
Than Can Be Obtained Now.

Butte women are disappointed in
the results achieved from the appli-
cation of the boycott to the high
cost of living problem and they! now
characterize this measure as more in
the nature of a protest than a reme-
dy. The newly formed Housewives
league has undertaken to devise 9TH
er methods of lowering the cost of
foodstuffs to the membership. The
officers of the league are correspond
ing with the Farmers Equity league
of Whitehall in the hope of induc-
ing the dairymen Of that region tc
furnish supplies in Butte at cheaper
prices than they "a be obtained at
present.
The contemplated Investigation in
to the cost of coal has been held up
temporarily because of the attitude
of the government in inquiring into
the present and the proposed in
creased schedule of prices. It was
the intention of the league to unite
with the Helena women's organiza-
ton in Investigating the reasons why
coal has advanced So much in price
since last October.
Letters are being received every
day from farmers and ranchers in
parts of Montana, Wyoming and Ida
no." said Mrs. Margaret Rosa, one
of the leaders in the movement.
"They are all interested in the fight
against existing prices"
The Housewives league was
formed a few weeks ago subsequent
to the organization of a temporary
citizens league. It came into the
field after the man had failed to take
definite action to combat the exist
ing prices for milk, butter, eggs and
turkey. The women decided to stand
by a schedule Of prices and to re-
fuse to purchase in any case in which
the price exceeded the amount they
had specified as being fair to produc-
er and consumer.

BUILDING STONES
ABOUND IN STATE
MONTANA LIKELY TO RIVAL
VERMONT IN WEALTH OF
STRUCTURAL MATERIAL.
Marble, Granite, Onyx, Alabaster, Ser
pentine, Limestone, Sandstone,
Oays, Slate, Gypsum Found in
Virtually 1nexhaustible Quantities;
Development Awaits Railroads.

One of the results of the many new
railroad projects proposed or under
way in Montana will be the opening
up of a sOurce of wealth as yet
scarcely touched-the vast stores of
building materials, marble, granite,
sandstone, onyx, gypsum, cement and
slate that require two things, popula-
ton and transportation, for their
most thorough development. 1t is q
fact not generally known that some
of these materials to be found under
the soil or on the surface of the
state are of a quality unsurpassed
in any part of the world and in some
cases the deposits are virtually un-
limited. 1t is hardly an exaggeration
to say that with the growth of the
cities of the northwest until they are
On a par in population with the great
cities of the east and the extension
over the state of a network of rail
lines the Treasure state will rival
Vermont with the wealth of it's quar-
ries.
Capitol of Home Materials.
Already Helena, Great Falls and
Havre ere centers for the shipment
of sandstone and brick. At Clancy,
10 miles west of Helena, is a quar-
ry that yields a high grade of gran
lite. 1t is this stone from which the
wings of the capitol at Helena were
constructed. The main body of the
building, constructed a number of
years previously, is of sandstone
quarried at Columbus in Saltwater
county.
At Geraldine in Chouteau county
there are vast beds of a dark granite
known as shonkinite that, are be-
lieved to be inexhaustible-it is prob
able that a city the size of New York
could be built from the material
from this one field. There is only
one other place on the North Ameri-
can continent-in British Columbia
where stone of this kind can be
found. One block of it $50 feet high
extends for three-quarters of a mile
in the form of a towering bluff. I'm
til the Milwaukee road was built to
within four miles of this bed of gran
lite q%uarrying was a commercial i'm
possibility. Now operations are be-
ing carried on upon a small scale.
Sun River Field Worked.
Eight miles southwest of Great
Falls on the Sun river bench is a
4O-acre field of silica sandstone
owned and quarried by the Great
Falls firm of Grover & Leuchars that
has furnished the buildings for. some
of the finest edifices in Montana.
Joseph A. Holmes, an expert in the
service of the United States geologi-
cal survey, pronounced this sand
stone as good as any in the United
States. 1t is a b~uff-colored stone
and is quarried in two grades, for cut
