MONDAY MORNING, MARCH Il, 1917.
PLANT THE BETS.

Again The Muscular would urge upon the own
ers OF land in western Montana to plant every pos
sible acre available this spring If ever the advice
held good, There is a time in the affairs of men
that taken at it's tide, leads on to fortune" that
time for the owners Of farm lands is here
The prices for agricultural products will reach
high tide this year. Every acre seeded and Gull
tivated this season will yield the farmer bigger
return than he has heretofore received for a crop
during his whole life time. If he is wise he will
spare no effort to take full advantage of the sit
uation that is presented.
Yesterday morning published the official
statement Of the Great Western Sugar company
that they viii pay this extra bonus, over
the contracted price of fifty per ton for every
ton Of sugar beets raised this year by the farmers
OF western Montana, subject only to the almost
certain condition that the basic price of sugar is
as high on December first as it is today
With the great beet sugar countries all engaged
in life and death struggle to feed their armies it
Is not possible for them to grow sugar bccts this
season. The world stock Of surplus sugar is ex-
hausted and unless all present indications shall fail
the price of sugar will climb st higher during the
coming year
Based on II per cent sugar content, which is the
average for the Montana grown beet and II tons
per acre, which is the average yield for Montana
beet fields, the extra price offered means cash in
advance offer of $50 dollars per acre to every man
who will this year raise an average crop Of sugar
bects. In addition to the cash returns the beet
grower will have three to five tons of beet tops per
acre. worth at least s. per ton
This means that western Montana farmers are
guaranteed 500 per for every acre of irri
gated land that they will ntclligently cultivate this
season. That is a guarantee, not taking chance
on what the price may be when the crop is har-
vested
When the farmer wheat he may find the
price at thrcshing time 10 cents 81 or possibly
Sis. but he takes the hazard of a high or low
market nothing is guaranteed Il planting time. In
is planted, just what the market price will be when
he markets his crop.
If the western Montana farmers will plant 20 900
acres to sugar hcos days hence" there will be two
million dollars in farm dividends distributed next
October. The man who cultivatcs 20 acres is
guaranteed $4,000; the man who will cultivate 40
acres, can have $4,000 to his credit in the bank next
fall
With these offers new made to him. the man
who overlooks the opportunity will find little sym
pathy at tax paying time, when he talks about high
taxes and the hard lot of the downt ro,dcn farmer
If there was favorable time for the owner of
farm lands to strike while the iron is hot that time
is the present one.

GREEK BLOCKADE IS

WASHINGTON, June 22-The Unit
cd States Minister to Greece last night
telegraphed to the department of state
that the blockade of Grecian ports by
the Allies has been lifted and imports
are now permitted to enter freely.
The message from the Minister to
Greece is taken here to mean that the
Allies are now satisfied with the
change of conditions and of sentiment
that has arisen since the abdication Of
Constantine and that in recognition of
those changes the blockade has
been lifted and that the shortage Of
food and supplies that resulted from
the blockade may soon be removed.
There was much criticism of the
blockade in pro-German circles here
from the start but the final abdiration
of Constantine is claimed by the Allies
to be conclusive proof that it was
necessary for the protection of the Al.
lied forces in the east and was fully
warranted.
