story tells of a young girl who has

Owing to Operation of
Organization.

Helena. - Owing to the operation
of the I. w. w. in Lincoln county, the
Eureka Lumber company has shut
down it's plant, throwing 400 workmen
out Of employment.
Information to that effect reached
here coupled with the statement that
unless the Workers" were cleared
out Of the section and their pickets
for distance of 10 miles along the
river, stopped from intimidating and
threatening workmen, the mill would
not be able to resume for some time
According to report brought here,
there are ESQ /. w. WIS at Eureka
and in the jungle camp at Fortine and
these individuals have been intercept
ing men en- route to the logging camps
and by threats have kept them away
from the river, where thousands of
logs are awaiting the drive to the mill.
1t was the elimination of the log drive
which forced the mill to suspend, al
though the company kept at work I'M

LABOR SHORTAGE PROVES

the difficulty of finding men who will
leave the cities and go out on the
ranches, stands in the way today o.
Montana rendering 100 per cent ser
vice in assisting the government tc
prepare for war by furnishing an
abundance of food to help feed the
army and navy.
This developed at a meeting of the
Montana State Council for Defense
held at the capitol, when reports were
read from all but five counties in the
state, showing the state is thoroughly
alive to the situation and farmers are
working to put in every acre available
with the assistance of bankers who
are advertising for people to come in
and get money for planting.
Taken as whole Montana has suf-
ficient spring wheat seed to plant
every available acre. 1t needs work
to distribute this seed, but the seed is
in the state and everyone is anxious
to get it in the ground.
Shortage of potato seed is felt in
many quarters of the state, but the
demand has been very heavy for the
early maturing varieties and probably
all those who need seed can be sup
piled If the potatoes are rightly dis
tributed and more will take the late
seed.
Scarcity of labor and feed for farm
animals seems to be felt everywhere.
Gould increase the acreage of spring
wheat from ten to fifty per cent if we
could get labor" seems to be the most
common reply to the employment Of

for his luncheon in a restaurant he

Rev. Mr.. Christler was unable to

Do You Neglect
Your Machinery?

The machinery Of the body needs to
be well oiled, kept In good condition
just as the automobile, steam engine or
bicycle. Why should the human neglect
his own machinery more than that of
his horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
pie do neglect themselves. To clean
the system at least once week is to
practice preventive measures. You will
escape many ills and clear up the coat
ed tongue, the sallow complexion, the
dull headache, the lazy liver, If you will
take pleasant laxative made up of
the May-apple, juice Of the leaves Of
