w DOLLAR WHEAT

In all probability the law fixing the
minimum price for wheat at 50 per
bushel, will go into effect. This is
the governments guarantee that
the farmers of the nation will not be
paid less than 50 a bushel for their
grain. The market may carry the
price yet higher, but u grain grow
ers now have practical assurance that
the price will not be less.
With this guarantee, the farmers
of the Zone of Plenty can face the
misfortune of a light crop with easier
hearts. A field that run Is bushels
will bring them not less than $50 an
acre; and even the low yield of five
bushels at 50, would be better than
one of 20 bushels at of cent wheat, as
the cost of harvesting, sacking,
threshing, hauling and warehousing
the lighter product would be reduced
all along the line.

A PATRIOTIC WISH
nv Edgar Guest)

10y LuSdT IueSt)
I'd like to be the sort of mar the flag
could boast about;
I'd like to be the sort of man it can
not live without;
I'd like to be the type of man
That really is American:
The head-erect and shoulders-square,
Clean-minded fellow, just and fair,
That all men picture when they see
The glorious banner of the free.
I'd like to be the sort of man the flag
now typifies,
The kind of man we really want the
flag to symbolic;
The loyal brother to a trust
The big, unselfish soul, and just,
The friend of every man oppressed
The strong support of all that's best
The sturdy chap the banners meant
Where'er it flies, to represent.
I'd like to be the sort of mar tn,
flags supposed to mean,
The man that all in fancy see wher
ever it is seen,
The chap that's ready for a fight,
Wherever there's a wrong to right,
The friend in every time of need,
The doer Of the daring deed,
The clean and generous-handed mai
That is a real American.

STATE FAIR WILL BE
FOOD TRAINING SCHOOL


Washington, D. c., July g. - The
Montana State Fair to be held Sept,
24-29, is o in the service of the
United States government.
In a statement today, Herbert C,
Hoover, government food administra-
tor, designated the Montana State
Fair a food training camp, at which
all the people in it's territory can
study the problems of food efficiency
which he intends to place before them,
Similar food training camps will he
conducted at practically all the other
large fairs Of the country.
at is the intention of the govern
ment to cooperate with the fairs in
every way possible in convincing ev-
eryone of the absolute necessity of
producing more food and wasting less
of it," said Mr.. Hoover, today. "The
large fairs offer a wonderful oppor.
tunity of doing this in an efficient
manner, and l am certain that great
results will come from it."
The action taken in naming the
Montana State Fair as a food train
ing camp is the result of a conference
of prominent fair officials from all
parts of the United States, at which
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1917-08-03

ing at 60 or 70 cents, a light crop
would be a severe misfortune to this
district; but 50 wheat with a light
crop will go a long way to offset the
shortage. There is some consolation
in the reports that much of the short
grain is exceptionally we'll filled, and
that there are many fields which will
make a normal yield.
And when you stop to consider that
the grain crop of Northeastern Mon
tana has been grown practically with
out rain, and still make a fair yield,
it certainly adds strength to the argu-
ment that the land here is the best
in the country.

EVERY MONTH A WHEAT YIELD

EVERY MONTH A WHEAT YIELD
Always it is harvest time in the
wheat fields of the world. Some
where, every month in the year, the
crop is ripening and being gathered.
1t is a steady stream of food, run
ming the year around, with v a
moment when there are not toilers in
the field gathering in the sheaves.
In January the harvest begins in
Argentina, Australia, Chile and New
Zealand. April finds the farmers of
lower Egypt, Syria Persia, Asia Minor
Mexico and Cuba cutting the grain.
By May the harvest begins in this
country-down in Texas, Central Asia,
China and Japan also harvest their
wheat in May. June finds the harvest
farther north in this country, down in
the states of Kansas, Oklahoma, Ar
kansas and across that latitude. Tur-
key, Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal
and southern France also harvest in
June. July is the harvest month for
a large part of the crop in this coun-
try-in Ohio, in Kentucky and out Ne
braska way. 1t is also a great harvest
month in Europe, for Germany, Aus
tria, Hungary, Russia and southern
England are busy with the crop. But
August is probably the greatest wheat
month of the year, treating the whole
world as a field. The harvest is at its
height then in our great northwest,
in Minnesota, the Dakotas. Montana,
and so on. Western Canada is also
in the harvest fields in August, as
are Belgium, Holland, Denmark and
central Russia. September and Octo-
Der find northern Russia, Scotland,
Norway and Sweden busy saving the
crop. South Africa and Peru do their
harvesting in November, while New
South Wales and Burmah do not get
to it until December.
And what a glorious crop it is.
Scattered all over the face Of the
earth. e~ternally ready to be plucked
and eaten, as general and as generous
as any plant that grows. An occa-
sional crop failure will result from
fluctuating climatic conditions, but
the deficiencies of such seasons are
counter-balanced by the abundant
crops of other years.

THRIFT THOUGHT .

Do you throw away cham gravy or
bacon fat, Madam Housewife, because
it is too greasy for ordinary use?
Here is a way suggested by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture to make it blend into soups or
GRAVES instead of floating as a greasy
layer on top:
Stir into each two tablespoons of
melted grease one-half tablespoon of
flour. The mixture will blend easily
into milk soups, stock soups, sauces, or
g~ravies and give ar appetizing flavor.

A BIG PROBLEM

The problem Of handling the /. w.
W. situation when the state troops
are withdrawn is indeed a momen-
tous one. While the menace of these
unprincipled hordes is not felt as
much in this part of the state as in
other districts, yet it has been an an
nual occurrence to have them pass
through here in large numbers on
their eastern or western migrating
tours.
Many towns in the state have or
ganized home guards to cope with the
situation, and it seems to be the only
practicable method. The l. w. WIS
use force to accomplish their ends,
and it is necessary to handle them
with an iron hand to curb their de-
structive activities.
With a membership Of less than
100000, the l. W. w. represents one
thousandth part of the population of
the United States, and it boasts a pur-
pose to seize all the possessions Of all
the other people in America. It is
going to "take possession of the land
and machinery of production" and
does not intend to buy them, either"
The just principle of a fair days
wage for a fair days work, or a fair
days service to industry and society,
is to be abolished by this revolution
airy organization, and we are further
told that "the question of right and
wrong does not concern" the men in
this organization.
As the American people have not
gone crazy, there is not the slightest
danger that this fantastic scheme will
carry. Sensible and fair-minded peo-
pie are in a very large majority in
this country, and are not foolish
enough to plunge the nation into saw
agery.
If the I. w. w. had its reckless way
it would bring about conditions worse
than savagery, for ever the savage
has respect for the property rights of
the individual. Carried to its logical
conclusion, the doctrine of the I. w.
". would lower civilization to animal
ism. Mar would become as a wild
beast of the forest, selling the food
and raiment of those weaker than
himself and running away with it into
hiding.
If the elements that make up the
l. W. w. movement were given a free
hand they would M~exicanize this coun-
try. Indeed, a bond of sympathy has
long existed between their members
along the Mexican border and Villa,
and that bandits raiding armies have
been recruited from time to time from
!. W. W. elements in this country.
These disloyal men will go as ia,
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1917-08-03
the services Of the larger fairs were

the services Of the larger fairs were
rendered to the government.
Because of the Importance Of this
great movement, and the possibilities
offered by the food training camps in
assisting the government in its food
conservation work, l believe that the
fairs should organize a special bureau
at Washington to cooperate with my
department and other government de-
partments in helping to bring the wal
to a successful conclusion," said Mr..
Hoover at the close of the confer
ence.
This bureau will be established in
Washington at once, with Ray j.
Speer, publicity manager of the
American Association of Fairs and
Expositions, in charge. This bureau
will work out plans, in cooperation
with the government, by which the
great food problems and their solu-
ton can be presented to the American
people in the most satisfactory way.
1t is not known definitely what lines
, this work will follow. This remains
to be worked out; but it is probable
that a series of exhibits and demon
STATIONS will be placed at the diff
ferent fairs by the government. A
conference is to be held at Washing
ton on this matter sometime this
week.
This is the first time in history that
the national government has cooperat-
ed with the fairs of the country in a
general way, or has attempted to
make use of them in an official way
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1917-08-03

with their destructive program as a
l~ong-tolerant public will permit them.
Their official publications expressly
declare that the tactics used are de-
termined by the power Of the organ
ization to make good in their USE"
Or, as Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, their
acknowledged high priestess, states it,
they will use intimidation, coercion
and any meal necessary to gain the
end" the end being plumber and the
confiscation of all property.

CONSUMPTION
IS ADVOCATED

New York. Feb. 5.-Conscription TO
build up an army for the country's de-
fense. and for the future as we'll, was
advocated here by former President
William H. Taft In an address on the
League TO Enforce Peace before the
Brooklyn Institute of Arts and
Sciences.
"Stirred as the people are by en-
thusiasm" at the break with Ger.
many, they would support conscrip-
tion measure, Mr.. Taft believed, not
only TO meet the present situation but
''for the future after the war Shall
end" "Conscr1ption until now" he
said, has been of doubtful exueGi
ency.' because popular opposition
might have aalted all plans for rea
sonable preparedness.
Now that the war is on MS. how
ever. now that the pc0ple see the NJ.
eessity. why should we not take al
vantage of this state of public mind
and do wuat justice and real dem
ocracy require? Military duty i5 pa7t
of every citizens duty. In this coun
try IN the hoppy homes Of prosperitj
fear many OF the people have lost
the vital sense Of their obligations u
the government. Conscription is
needed to discipline oxr native youne
men and teach them respect for az
thority. II is needed to teach oul
