Lesson TO HkI
By r. G. HOLDEN

If your surplus is not needed for
seed 1t Is not wasted. 1t always has a
market value or may be fed to stock.
II II is needed as seed 1t will be worth
many times its market value as grain.
To save plenty Of good seed corn
Is always good business. 1t Is patriotic.
1t Is our duty to ourselves, our COM
munity and our country.
Crop reports indicate that, il CON
ditlons between how and harvest time
are favorable, this years corn crop will
be about normal. ..
But, because Of the serious seed.
corn situation last Spring, there is
danger that some Of the corr ma
have been grown from imported seed
and either will not mature before frost
or will produce a yield inferior In both
quantity and quality.
Because of killing frosts in DC.
tober, the seed corn situation last
Spring was SO serious as to cause ma
tion-wide alarm. The q. s. Depart
ment of Agriculture. state officials. ag-
ricultural colleges, county agents.
newspapers, bankers, business men
and farmers were aroused. Campaigns
were conducted to test seed cor and
locate every good ear Of home grown
seed.
The result has been gratifying, but
the expense must have reached into
the millions of dollars. In some local.
ties 1t was necessary to import seed
because the 1917 crop did not mature
and not sufficient seed corr Of the 1916
crop has been saved.

STATE OF MONTANA TO
GET FORD TRACTORS

A great many inquiries have been
received by the Montana council of de-
fense in regard to the opportunity of
securing a Ford tractor. The council
has had considerable correspondence
with Ford and Son on the subject.
The company has written the council
as follows:
"We have program of distribution
in effect at the present time, outside
of Montana, which will carry US over
period of ninety days and it will be
impossible for Us to make any further
arrangements other than those al
ready completed"
Some time ago Mr.. D. r. Mihlls
of Roundup visited the Ford factory
and on his return informed the coun-
Gil of defense that Ford and Son
would make an allotment of five hun
dred tractors for Montana. In agree.
ing to make the allotment Ford and
Son stipulated that the distributors
must agree to place this first allot-
ment of five hundred with the farm.
ers without any profit. The cost OF
the machines at the factory is $75C
and with freight and handling charg.
es the total cost will probably be $82E
delivered in Montana. In order tc
guarantee that the farmers would re.
ceive the tractor at cost Ford anC
Son requested that the Montana coun.
Gil of defense exercise at least the
supervisory direction in the delivery
of the tractor in order to carry out the
! plan of no profit to distributors. This

Secretary L. E. Jones of the cham
ber of commerce this week received
assurances that at last twenty five
automobiles will join the Glacier
Park Automobile tour that left Duluth,
Minn., July 5.
A committee of prominent automo-
bilists of Glasgow and Valley county
will go east and meet the parties in
the tour and escort them to Glasgow.
The tour may go via Great Falls after
leaving Havre if it is the desire of
the party. Towns along the route
are competing to see which can pro-
vide most timely and unique enter
tainment for the party. Hotel accom-
modations have been reserved for the
party for the night of their stay in
Glasgow and they will be taken on a
tour of the city before resuming the
journey to the west.
The following is the travel program
schedule from Glasgow:

HOMESTEADERS REFUSED
CHEAP RAILROAD RATES

Secretary Jones of the Commercial
club received letter this week to the
effect that the western passenger COM
mittee had decided that it would be
inadvsable to make any reduced rates
for homeseekers tickets this year.
The letter states that meeting
was held recently to discuss this mat
ter, and careful consideration was
given the whole question of home
seekers fares to all parts Of the coun-
try, and opportunity was given to rep
resentatives from a number of dis
tricts to address the meeting on the
subject.
Mr.. Eustis mentions that the ques-
tion is a difficult one, as it is diff
cult. if not impossible to discriminate
between homeseekers and land specu-
lators, and the travellers to state or
county fars or conventions, and the
practice once resumed would no doubt
require the making Of rates from and
to all districts with the chief result
of reducing government revenues.

CANNING FACTORY SITE
PURCHASED AT CHINOOK

Through an order signed by District
Judge w. B. Rhoades approving the
sale to the United Products company
of a strip of land adjoining the Great
Northern rightofway, the property of
the city of Chinook, the establishment
of large institution is insured. The
property thus conveyed consists of
about seven acres of ground located
near the railroad depot and extending
for alb. ut five blocks along the north
side of the railroad rightofway, and is
one of the most desirable factory sites
in Chinook.
The transfer is the result of pub
lie sale held at the Blaine county court
house at which Earle Generet, repre-
senting the United Products company
was the highest bidder. The land will
be used for the erection of canning
factory and for an experimental vege-
table growing station and hot houses.
An application has been made by the
company for rightofway fo ra spur
track from the Great Northern and for
the leasing of warehouse sites.
The head offices of the United Pro-
ducts company are at Great Falls and
it is planned to erect another factory
at Billings. About seventy-five of the
stockholders of the company live in
Chinook and in the country tributary
to this place.

be offering to the soldiers and fami-
lies of soldiers in their communities.
In one of the towns of the division
the lack Of this information service
caused distinct anti-Red Cross sem
timent and allowed propaganda to
flourish.
The mother of a man in service had
heard that the local draft board would
be able to tell her why she didn't get
her check from the government. When
they could get her no information
she went to the board and found that
she refused to believe that it was be-
cause they did not know and thought
that they were withholding the infor-
nation. Busy neighbors then started
the story that she would never be able
to get her allotment and allowance
money.
This story caused sentiment which
had to be overcome by the Red Cross
The Home Service section is now en-.
deavoring to answer all such ques.
tions, so that there will be no chance
of repetition of this case.
l.. E. Jones is chairman of the
home service section of the Red Cross
for Valley county.

FARMERS LEAD IN
THIRD LIBERTY LOAN
Agricultural States DemOnstrat'
ed Their Big Patriotism
by Heavy Buying.

According to the following state
ment issued by the treasury depart
ment the farmers of the country made
more than good by their over subscrip-
tion to the third Liberty loan and it
can be safely said that they will do
their share in the next loan which be-
gins in October for eight billion dol
lars.
Next to the aggregate number of
subscribers, perhaps the most striking
feature of the third Liberty loan was
the support given it by the farming
and rural populations Of the country.
Not only did the farmers purchase
literally of the bonds, but the rural
communities as rule were more
prompt in completing their quotas of
the loan than the larger cities. More
than 10000 communities in the Uni
ted States subscribed or oversub-
scribed their quotas, many of them on
the first day of the campaign. The
majority of these were not cities, but
country districts.
Farming States Subscribed.
Iowa, a typical agricultural state,
was the first to subscribe it's quota,
and was followed by Oregon, Arkan-
sas, Kentucky, and other states in
which agriculture is the leading in
durtry.
1t is impossible to give accurate
figures, but it is estimated that while
only per cent of the farming popu-
lation of the United States subscribed
to the first and second loans, probably
ten times as many subscribed to the
third. The significance is increased by
the facts that the heavy subscription
was made at season when the farm
ers are ordinarily on the borrowing
and not on the lending and investing
side of the market and when the
farms of the country are speeded up
to the limit.
Sense of Duty Permeates.
This wide distribution of the third
loan among the whole people shows
that the body of the nation has become
aroused and gone into acton-that t
the sence of duty and the necessity for
individual support of the country has
permeated the whole people. Secre-
tary McAdoo may justly be enthused
over the result and call it the soundest
national financing in the world. Every
Liberty bond holder is an active force
backing the government.
Our soldiers in France and our allies
are heatened and strengthened by the
knowledge that 100000 American
citizens are backing them with their
money, and our enemies must learn
with fear and dread of the great re-
serve force upon which their adversar-
les can rely.
Scientific Saving.
To keep the good work up, the
American people must adopt scientific
saving methods; save money, save
material. save labor, and save time.
Thus we will bring the war to an
earlier and victorious close and save
the lives of American soldiers, and
save our rights and our liberties and
save the world to democracy, justice
and civilization

COUNTY ATTORNEY BORTON
ASKS FOR RECONCILIATION

County Attorney c. d. BOrton will
seek reelection to the office of coun-
tv attorney and asks for the nominal
tion on the Republican ticket at the
hands of the qualified electors of VAL
ley county.
County Attorney Borton has made
an excellent record during his last
term of office, having conducted the
office of county attorney in an econ
omical way with material saving to
the taxpayers of the county.
He has investigated all complaints
before issuing warrants to insure that
there is proper cause for action so
that the county will not be put to
needless expense in prosecuting cases
where no probable cause of guilt
occurs.
The taxpayers of Valley county, by
voting for C. D. Borton, can rest as
sured that the interests of the people
will be looked after and that there
will be no waste of the public funds.

defense has any interest either in the
Ford tractor or it's distribution.
While the system of distribution
has not yet been finally determined, if
the same method is followed in Mon
tana as in other states the tractors
will be shipped to dealers in different
sections for delivery to purchasers.
The transaction will be cash one,
remittance being made directly to
Ford and Son through local bank.
It is probable that preceding the first
large shipment of the tractors to
Montana several will be sent to diff
ferent sections of the state for de-
monstration, but this is detail which
has not been finally determined upon.
The latter part of May, Mr.. Mihills
made another visit to the Ford factory
in connection with the distribution Of
the tractors in this state and under
date of June 4, he wrote the secretary
of the council as follows:
ut will be impossible to have any
tractors in this state until the first of
August, by which time an allotment
will have been made. l am not in a
position to state just how many we
will receive, but have hopes of at least
five hundred and possible one thous-
and for fall delivery. One of the
things the Ford people insist upon is
service for the tractors in the field
and the distributor must maintain a
competent force of experts so that
the tractors will be kept in running
order at all times. A full line of re-
pairs will be carried by the state dis.
tributor and the local agent will carry
all minor repairs that are deemed
necessary"
When the details in connection with
the distribution of the Ford trac.
tors are available the Montana coun.
Gil of defense will endeavor to give
the facts publicity through the papers
of the state.
