NAVY LEAGUE MAKES
AMENDS TO DANIELS.

Washington, Aug. 30.--In a state
ment today the Navy League an
nounced its acceptance of the report
of the naval board on the Mare Is
land explosion and expresses regret
that in a former statement it gave
currency to an opinion that the inves-
tigation was being hampered by the
Navy Department under the influence
of powerful labor interests. The for
mer statement led to the bitter con-
troyersy between the league and Sec
rotary Daniels
The leagues statement also re-
grets that, in referring to labor in
fluence, ii was not made clear that it
did not refer to the standard labor
unions, but to "the Germanized |. w.
W., The statement, issued with the
approval of Robert M. Thompson,
president of the league. says the or
ganization is convinced there were
no ''hampering instructions or re-
strictive directions into the method
of investigation"
While the Navy Department was
investigating the explosion, which
killed five and injured more than
thirty in July, the league issued a
statement declaring reliable infor-
mant had told it that time fuse lead
ing 10 the black powder magazine
had been found, but that the investi-
cation was being blocked by powerful
labor influences.
The issuance Of the statement
caused a bitter controversy with Sec
rotary Daniels, who at once cut all
connections with the Navy League,
ordered all OF its members excluded
from naval ships or stations and re-
fused to accept for the navy cOntri-
buttons of comforts being made for
seamen by thousands of women
throughout the country.
The official report of the Mare Is
land disaster, made public a little
later, confirmed the finding of the
time fuse, charges a criminal con-
spiracy by persons unknown, but de-
MED that the Investigators worked
under any restrictions
The leagues acknowledgment and
expression of regrets now is expected
to lead to a resumption of relations
with the navy.

A letter from w. A. Taylor, chief
bureau of plant industry, U. S. de-
partment of agriculture, to the direc-
tor of the Montana experiment sta
tion, says
''The bureau of plant industry is
planning vigorous campaign for the
extension of flax seed acreage this
year, and desires your cooperation to
this end. Anything you can do to
further the growing of flax in your
state will be appreciated. After re-
counting the flax situation both in
the United States and the world,
which clearly indicates a great short
age in supply, he continues:
"lt seems entirely probable.
therefore, that flax prices dur
ing the coming IL months will
be profitable to the farmer. even
though there is an increase of so
per cent or more in production"
"The many uses of linseed oil in
military and naval supplies make this
increased production in part a war
measure. AS you know, linseed Oil
is used in waterproofing canvas for
tents, in the manufacture of water
proof coats, in the making of cores
in foundries. in the preserving and
waterproofing steel and wooden con-
struction. The by-product of linseed-
oil production, the oil cake, is a
valuable feed for livestock, and will
be particularly useful if it becomes
necessary to mill higher percentage
of the wheat kernel into flour than is
now customary.
AS flax can be grown on breaking
more successfully than any other
crop, we are particularly urging it's
use in bringing new land into culti-
vation. Further, flax may be sown
after it is too late to utilize the land
for other crops. For these reasons
the increased production of flax may
be accomplished without curtailing

Wisconsin says: can army of poul-

On farms, the production of poul-
try is largely a by-product. Poul-
try consumes bugs and insects which
usually menace the faremrs' crops
and all have a food value. Poultry
will consume seeds, weeds, grass,
scattered and wasted grains after
harvest-and under farm conditions
produce the cheapest of all meat pro-
ducts.
The American Poultry association
recommends this year that extra pre-
cautions be waged against all poultry
pests-curtail the big loss that each
year takes many of the chicks

OATS AND BARLEY
FOR A CROP NOW
If SEED is AVAILABLE, THESE
SHOULD BE PLANTED ON UN-
IRRIGATED LANDS.
High Prices Are Bound to Be Real
lied Next Fall on Account of the
Shortage That Exists; Good Crops
Have Been Secured When Planted
as Late as June i.

Now that it is getting late for the
seeding of spring wheat, Montana
farmers should turn their attention
to putting in oats and barley. For
tunate is the man who has enough
seed oats and barley for his own use;
in many parts of the state it is prac-
tically impossible to buy seed for
these crops. This means that the re-
serve Of oats and barley is practically
exhausted and that high prices will
be realized next fall. While oats and
barley yield most heavily under irri-
cation they can also be grown very
successfully on the dry land farm if
proper varieties are selected.
Early varieties, such as the Sixty
Day and Kherson, are the best ones
to grow AS with spring wheat, the
best results are obtained from early
seeding but good crops have been Sc
cured when planted as late as June
first. Have the seed bed we'll pre-
pared. Do not SOW too deep; one to
two inches should be deep enough to
put the seed in moist soil Seed at
the rate of four to five pecks per
acre.
Barley is one of the best feed crops
that can be grown on the dry land
farm and in pounds per acre can be
expected to yield more than any 9TH
er grain.
white Smyrna" barley natures in
the shortest time and is recommend
ed as being the best barley to grow
under dry conditions in Montana 1t
seems especially adapted to regions
where severe droughts are likely to
occur. "White Hull-less" or "Nepal"
is probably a more common variety
but is later in maturing and does not
yield as we'll as the "White Smyrna "
Because of it's coarse straw, broad
leaves and the freedom from boards,
it is a good variety to crow for hay
1t is also good grain to grow for
hogging off. To farmers who want

mended.
AS with other spring grains, early
seeding is best but it may be planted
as late as June first.
Best results are obtained from

of five pecks per acre and the naked

The citizens of Box Elder, in Hill
county, admire enterprise in busi-
ness way, but they have feeling
that the line should be drawn some
where. They apparently feel that
the line has been reached when in
surance agents use gun as an argu-
ment in getting business.
State Auditor Heating received the
following letter, signed by four resi-
dents of Box Elder:
"We, the undersigned, desire to
file with your office a complaint
against two life insurance agents
travelling for the First National Life

kota, under the name of Col. Matz

$49.40. They later met me at the
home of my neighbor, Fred Kiemele,
whom they were trying to write.
Upon hearing Misrepresentation to
them, l demanded the return of my

pulled a gun on myself, Mr.. and Mrs.

death if we hindered their departure.
Also knocking down Mr.. Kiemele.
Fred Stolz, neighbor, gave them

$64.99. They were seen to depart in

pearing at Kremlin. We suspect they
are working along the high line west
of that place.

WHEN THE RED LIGHT
FLARED AND WENT OUT

Great Falls is excited over the
opening of the redlight district,
closed several months ago on the Or
der of Attorney General Ford, the
subsequent closing of the district on
the order of a district judge, and the
sensational charges that the proprie-
tors of underworld resorts have made
against Dorothy Hazard, charged
with having induced the proprietors
to contribute to fund of 1000, to
be used in the right places for the
purpose of placating officials. The
Hazard woman spent several days in
Jail and was finally released on $2O,-
900 cash bond. Her forthcoming
trial promises to unfold an astonish-
ing tale of duplicity and graft.
The story came one when the pro-
prietors Of the resorts were arrested
They made protest to the officers, as
serting that each had contributed
$1,000 for protection. The money,
they said, had been paid over to the
Hazard woman, who represented to
them that she could arrange matters
to their satisfaction with the Off
cials.. The officers put the stories
together and found that the sum al
legged to have been contributed to-
tailed over $4,000.
In the meantime the Hazard wo-
man had disappeared. She was ar
rested at Havre, just as she was
about to take an outgoing train, and
was brought back to Great Falls.
The case stirred up Cascade Off
cialdom. Attorney General Ford has
taken a hand and will appear with
the county attorney when the trial of
the Hazard woman occurs.
