War S Fourth Year
Finds France Calm,
Premier Ribot Says
Nothing Will Stop Allies I'm
til Enemy Peoples
Awaken"

Paris, July 2s.-France begins the
fourth year Of the war In calm conf
dence and determination, expressed to-
day by Premier Alexandra F. Ribot in
these words:
until the people with whom we are
at war finally awaken and free them
selves from the detestable regime that
Expresses them, nothing will stop the
Allies in their effort that will bring
back peace to the world by the triumph
of their arms"
At the request Of The Associated
Press, the Premier wrote:
"The >sntry of the United States into
the conflict that is pending in the world
was the capital event of the third year
of the war. 1t was welcomed with en-
thusiasm by the Allied peoples. They
know what may be the effort OF the
American soldiers who have come to
fight by their side.
"That event resounded nightly
throughout the entire world. Certain
n-American states whore France
received touching marks OF sympathy
on the day of her national fete already
have shown, by breaking off relations
with Germany, that they had a clear
vision of the Germanic peril.
"Greece, wrenched from the intrigues
Of a foreign faction, is preparing to
send fresh contingents to fight with
us on the Macedonian front. The cause
of national liberty in all countries is
finding more ardent advocates. who are
heard with increasing attention.
"The enemy, disappointed in his in
sensate hope Of stopping ocean navtga-
ton, disillusioned in his effort to sap
the courage of the Allies by false offers
Of peace, can do no more than to seek
to envelop the origins OF his criminal
enterprise in a veil Of untruth.
MAY the peoples with whom we are
at war finally awaken and free them
selves from the detestable regime that
Expresses them. Until then nothing
will stop the Allies in their effort that
will bring back peace to the world by
triumph of their arms"

MontanQ---the Treasure State

Montana. third largest of the states of the Union and greatest
Of all in natural resources, invites the world to assist in the de-
velopment of these resources and to share the prosperity which,
bv reason of its favorable endowment, this state is enjoying and
must continue to enjoy.
There are in the United States many great farming states,
there are many great mining states, there are many states through
which flow streams capable of electrical development, there are
manv states beneath the soil of which may be found a wealth OF
coal and oil and gas. there are many states which are abundantly
able to furnish forage for great herds of cattle and focks OF sheep
Few, however, are the states which possess in ample abundance
all of these natural resources, and of this class, Montana is easily
in the lead.
Montana is the fastest growing state in the Union. The full
knowledge of the possibilities which this state offers to the home
seeker and the investor has resulted in turning toward Montana
a flood of desirable immigration, which has developed an era Of
unexampled prosperity.
Montana is the last of the great public land states. When
the broad acres of this state, now lying idle, shall have been seized
upon by the homesteader and the farmer, the day of free farm
land will have passed. In the first great rush toward the west,
the fertile %benchlands of Montana were overlooked, but when it
was shown, within the last decade that these lands, which had
furnished nutritious grasses for millions of head of cattle and
sheep, were also capable of producing record-breaking yields of
wheat and oats, there came the awakening of a new Montana, the
Montana of the farmer. The l%and-hungry of the east turned
the opportunities which nature and the liberal provisions of the
homestead law made available here.
That they made good is evidenced by the fact that, although
less than one-eighth of the tllable land Of Monana is yet under
the pillow, this state now ranks sixth among the states of the
Union in the production of wheat, sixteenth in the production of
oats, second in the production Of flax, thirteenth in the prcduc-
ton of barley and nineteenth in the production Of potatoes. When
the 35,0000 900 acres of good farming land in this state shall be
under cultivation, it is not unreasonable to suppose that this state
will take the lead in the production of practically all staple farm
crops, that it will become in fact the "breadbasket of the world. J"

agement will not reduce the federal

OUTLAWS a defensive policy entails.
Progress and protection are both ex-
pensive benefits. The more we de-
mand of governments the more we
must expect to pay for their service.
New forms Of taxation and decided
rises in established schedules will in
evitably saddle business with a fiscal
burden which must enter operating
calculations and raise the markets.
Products will be dearer and salaries
lifted to a scale which will command

Another can be seen in the near ap-
proach of the soldiers to Armenia; in
the certainty that they are carrying
freedom to that unhappy people, and
that they will soon o the Holy
Sepulcher from the merciless Turks.
When the war first began, the
Turks sent an army to capture or de-
stroy the Suez canal. They were
driven off and the British army pur-
sued them. That army is now in Pal
estine and drawing near to the very
gates of Jerusalem. The light is
growing brighter on the Cross. Nine
hundred years ago a cry rang through
Europe to rally and save the Holy
Sepulcher. It was swiftly answered
and 300, 1000 of the crusaders persisted
in vain; and since then the Turk has
had rule w all that land which
Christians hold as sacred because OF
it's wonderful memories.
Now a victorious army is kneeline

T FARM EARNINGS.

In some parts of the country, where
the price of land is high, it is no
longer a ease of the humble farmer,
but OF the capitalists on a consider
able scale. Kansas has been looking
into farm values and finds that on
1856 farms, valued at more than $780,
600 each, receipts average more than
$4,000. Ten farmers investigated,
had farms worth more than $4,000
each, with annual crops in excess of
$4,000.
Estates of one-fourth of this size
would mean affluence to the rank and
file of city workers. 1t is interesting,
however, to note that these Kansas
farmers, after allowing 5 per cent
interest on the value of their farms,
receive an average Of less than S40O
a year as the total wage of the fam
lily. Since the ruling interest rate
is about 5 per cent. these farmers
could easily sell out and get 5 pei
cent returns on the value Of THEN
properties.
Surely the farmer, his wife anc
children are entitled to a wage more
than $50 a month. The conclusion is
inevitable either that these farms are
not producing enough or that lane
values are inflated. The latter is par
ticularly true where the land craze
has been carried to unheard of price:
OF $500 to $500 per acre. Despite thu
experience of the past, the rise in lane
must finally reach sensible bounds
perhaps sooner than most people ex
