Big IMMIGRATION
80 '''''' Nc MOVEMENT west
With the Coming Of Normal Condi-
tiOns 1t Is Probable That Middle
Western Farmers Will Move
to Montana.

Normal conditions will oon again
prevail throughout the nation. The
citizens who have nots been permitted
to make improvements on their pri-
vate property, will find it possible
to do so before long. Farmers in the
middle west who have hesitated in
the last few years to make a change,
not knowing what the war had in
store for them, will now realize that
conditions will permit a change of To-
cation. This, together with our boys
coming home will assure them of a
sufficient labor supply to harvest their
crops. One of the greatest immigra-
ton movements to Montana is before
US. Glasgow, through it's chamber of
commerce and agriculture, is prepar-
ed for it.
So that we may be of the greatest
service to Glasgow and Valley coun-
ty a larger membership should be Sc
cured. If any member knows Of any
one that is not a member and should
be, it is his duty for the sake OF
the community he lives in to solicit
him and secure his membership.
The splendid support which this in
stitution has received in these trying
times is evidence that 1t has the con-
fidence of the community at large.
1t is up to all of US, each individ-
ual, to help by making suggestions
or doing things so that the go" in
Glasgow will grow so that our COM
munity will be prosperous and con-
tinue so in the future. 1t is a big
problem, but the people of Glasgow
are equal to the occasion. LETS Go"

IN HAY.

Hay put up too moist may develop
spontaneous combustion. 1nvestiga-
lions at the Iowa experiment station
have resulted in the issuance of the
following suggestions:
If the hay is put into the stack or
NOW when too moist, watch it. The
first evidence of heating is shown in
the morning a day or two later by the
walls being covered with moisture con-
densed from the water vapor driven
off in the heating. If gases or pun
gent odors are given off the heating
is great enough to be dangerous and
the hay should be removed at once. II
the heating has become intense before
it is noticed it is probable that a large
part of the interior is charred and re-
moving the hay may admit the air
needed to start the charred mass into
flames. Alfalfa and clover hay may
contain a lot of moisture in the stems
when the leaves are dry enough to
rattle off. The stems should be dry
enough so that no moisture can be
squeezed out by twisting a handful
of the hay before it is put in the
stack or mow. The officiating Of the
hay generally reaches a dangerous
point in a month or six weeks after
being moved or stacked.

MILITANT CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE RECOMMEND

NV
The functions for which the cham
bers of commerce were established in
the various communities throughout
the United States have, due to the
war, been almost entirely replaced by
activities. These organizations
have been a great help as expressed
by the president and at the close o
the war these organizations will again
play their part in bringing about nor
NAL conditions. The past two years
the regular work of the chambers OF
commerce in farming and tourist EN-
ters has almost been entirely suspend
ed, but the time is fast coming when
it will again be possible for develop
ment work as done before the war.
The "after the war" movement IS a
big question and has the attention
of the authorities of the government.
It should have the cooperation OF ev-
cry chamber of commerce.
Here is what Secretary OF wal ba-
ker says: Commercial organizations
would greatly assist the government
in its work of organizing the country
for self-defense if there were a mill
tant chamber of commerce in every
city in the union. Efforts to organ
ize such a vigorous and representa-
tive commercial body is a patriotic
effort which all good citizens should
aid"

MERCHANT MARINE TO #
SOLVE WORLD PROBLEMS
Tremendous Movement of Farm Prod

Our merchant marine of today and
tomorrow will carry a message Of good
will to the nations of the world.
Millions of cruelty starved folk face
westward from every shore with
mouths open to the promise of Amer
lea. These must be fed and then
clothed-and also supplied with the
other necessities of life. Our grand
privilege is now here to restore life,
strength and hope to these martyred
brothers Of a hundred tongues.
Highways transport facilities at the
farmers gate and at every farmers
gate-must Immediately suggest the
initial phase Of overseas distribution;
must make a picture in the farmers
mind Of the movement of the products
Of his soil and labor from his own
gate through to the distant points of
the world; to Europe, to Algiers, to
Athens, and the orient.
The Highways transport service is
the first step in the great system of
transportation to the sea and then
on the merchant marine to the far
points of the world.
Food must begin to move soon from
every hill, through every valley OF
the great country behind our shores,
down to the shipping points before we
can start u ships from the ports and
fulfill u duty; and, with the promise
of the wars end before US, the High

a peace-time service by stimulating

and supplies so badly needed. Routes
and channels from shipping points
must be opened and efficiently main
tanned, and our merchant marine must
be built up to meet the demands for
distribution, overseas.
Resistance in any form to the free
movement of farm products must be
reduced and eliminated, and the most
efficient utilization of manpower must
be introduced wherever possible.

H SALT

Truly this is an age Of wonders.
Somebody has discovered that two or
three grains of rice placed in a salt
shaker will make it behave itself.
You might take this home and try it
on your condiment artillery. Aside
from the current crop of European
matches, there is scarcely any piece
of mechanism as battling at times as
the salt shaker when it gets obsti-
nate. It is in the same class with the
short wasted shirt stud and the foun-
tain pen with the hemmorhage. When
the salt shaker suspends publication
it frequently creates havoc in the
home. The house husband beats loud
ly on the table with it to make it
say uncle. A barrage Of toothpick
points, forks and icetongs is laid down,
but the enemy digs himself in. Some
