River Press.
Bill Fisher, one of Malta's prom
inent residents, is in town having
DR.. Hoyt working on his hand where
a finger was when he didn't know it
was loaded.
Judge Dudley Du Bose, who has
as excellent an opportunity as
any to note the general condition of
propably as good opportunities as
things throughout northern Montana,
has the following to say of that part
of the state: "The counties along the
northern border of the state are
prospecting this year to a greater ex-
tent than l have ever before wit
messed in the years l have travelled
through them. The sheepmen have
had a good season, the cattlemen will
do we'll, and the small ranchmen will
also have a good season. AS indi-
eating what sort of year it has been
in Choteau county, I was told in Fort
Benton that the bank there had de-
posits of about a million dollars.
When you remember that Fort Ben
ton is a town of small population, and
has for some years been considered a
town that was not growing at all, it
will show that there is money in the
country tributary to it. And there
is, as l can testify. When I was
there the other day l saw numerous
teams belonging to w~ool-growers,
leave the town with $500 worth Of
goods for the ranches, and the few I
saw were but a small proportion Of
those who bought their goods in the
town."
The MN Transaction in Court
One of the largest cattle deals ever
negotiated in the state, says the Hell
ena Herald, was the purchase by Nc
Namara & NARROW, of Big Sandy
the entire herd f the Home Land &
Cattle company. When the deal was
made a contract was entered into by
which the endors were bound to
turn over to the purchasers a certain
number of cattle. Failure to do this
on the part of the Home Land & Cat.
tie company would result in their
paying Mcnamara & NARROW 500 pei
head forfeit for every animal less
than the contracted number.
When the Home Land & Cattle
company had turned over nearly all
of it's cattle it became apparent tt
the purchasers that there was going

CHANCE FOR THEM

During the week certain members
of the flock had been paying over
much attention to sampling the local
whisky, and the "meenister"-this is
a Scotch story-took advantage of his
position in the pulpit to administer
gentle reproof.
"An' l tell We, one an all, ye're
on the way to perdition!" he cried.
At that moment a fly settled on
the book before him. He raised his
fist.
"Ye're gaein' tae the bottomless
pit " he shouted. Sand yell all get
there, just sac SURE as-sae sure as
l ding the life out of this fly"
His fist crashed down as he utter
ed the words; then he looked to see
the results of his handiwork.
"Missed!" he calculated. "Ah,
weeel, maybe there's a chance fol
some O. We yet"
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1917-09-14

to be a shortage so they declined to
pay for the last batch of cattle re-
ceived, claiming an offset between
the amount due and the forfeit mon
ey. This led to legal proceeding in
the state courts and Judge DuBose
appointed a receiver to take charge
of the cattle that had not been paid
for. These have been managed and
some of them sold by the receiver.
Subsequently Mcnamara & NARROW
instituted the suit in the federal
courts for specific performance of
contract. This was the case passed
upon yesterday upon demurrer. Judge
Knowles says he sustains the demur-
er for two reasons One Isl that the
ground upon which a court of equity
can decree a specific performance of
contract for the sale and delivery of
personal property is the insolvency of
the defendant. The court maintains
that the bill Of complaint is not clear
enough on that point.
The other reasons assigned by the
court is that the bill of complaint
does not describe the cattle with suf-
fcient clearness. "No officer of the
court" says Judge Knowles , could
take a decree of specific performance
containing a description such as is in
this bill and see that it is carried in
to effect.
The plaintiffs will probably amend
their complaint to conform with the
courts ruling; then will come another
demurrer and more arguments.

LIKE AN ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells why a corn is SO painful and
says cutting makes
them grow.

Press an electric button and you
form a contract with live wire which
rings the bell. When your shoes press
against your corn it pushes it's sh lrp
roots down upon a sensitive nerve md
you get shock Of pain.
Instead Of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow, Just
step into any drug store and ask for
quarter of an ounce Of freezone. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn o. cal
lus from one s feet. A few drops APP
piled directly upon tender, aching
corn stops the soreness instantly, and
soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts
right out, root and all, without pain.
This drug freezone is harmless and
never inf1ames or even irritates the
surrounding skin.

the figures are a trife deceptive.
A more accurate idea can be
had by reckoning in batallions as
batallions have approximately
1000 men, although it is definitely
known that hundreds Of the Ger
man batallions are now far below
this number. On this basis, Ger
many started her campaign on
the French and Russian fronts
with 1872 Batallions. This
number has by now been in
creased to 1884. These fighting
units of course do not take into
account the millions of men en-

This Titanic increase is in no
way discouraging to Allied mill
