BUTTE, Mont. Aug. 27.-The
Great Falls smelter of the Anaconda
Copper Mining company will probably
shut down tonight and Independent
mines, still trying to operate, will be
closed by the middle of the week.
This today is the outlook IN the
Butte labor situation. Copper pro-
duction will be stopped entirely
within few days unless labor differ
ences are adjusted.
The Butte metal trades council
takes the stand that shutdown is
a lockout and will ask the interna'
tional union for strike benefits, union
officials announced here today.
Governor Stewart of Montana is in
Washington today in connection with
| Congresswoman Rankin's resolution
providing government control for the
! Butte mines.

Government, Here to Boost
the Fall Wheat
Planting.
LARGER YIELD WANTED
Iowa Must Increase Acreage at Least
Sixteen Per Cent, Government
Says-Wants to Meet
Farmers.

Iowa has been asked to increase
her wheat acreage at least sixteen
per cent and to interest farmers in
conserving and planting seed wheat,
v. c. Miller, special agent of the
United States department of agricul-
ture is in Lee county urging all farm
ers having choice lots of seed wheat
to hold it for seed purposes and plant
it this fall.

quarters at the Metropolitan hotel at
Fort Madison unit September Is. He
has charge of the governments wheat
seed campaign in Lee, Van Buren,
and Jefferson counties. This cam
paign is part of the Hoover food
movement.
While in this county Mr.. Miller is
anxious to locate all the seed wheat
and also to interest farmers to put
this in this fall The government has
asked Iowa 10 increase it's acreage
sixteen per cent, but as this years
crop was smaller than usual, the per-
centage of increase must be larger.
According to Dean Curtis of the ag-
ricultural department at Ames, Iowa
will be able to increase her acreage
from twenty-five to fifty per cent.
Those having seed wheat or who
plan to plant this fall are earnestly
requested to get in touch with Mr..

out the county. The farmers are
guaranteed good price for wheat by
the government and if the stand is a
failure. the field can be ploughed up
and corn planted.
