LAND SALES BRING
100000 TO STATE
Average Price Per Acre Ranges from
1892 to $16.11-Bidding Was
Very Brisk.

Although there has been some
drouth along the "high line" in nor
thern Montana the past two years,
land sales conducted by the state land
office last week brought to the state
500, 230, the land in three different
counties bringing an average per acre
of from 1922 to $16.11.
Sidney Miller, state register of
lands; Assistant George Hopkins
Sharp, conducted the sales, the first
Of which took place last Tuesday at
Shelby, Toole county. The buyers in
cluded out-of-state people, as we'll as
Montanans.
At this town 2O,569 acres of land
were offered for sale and 1920 were
sold for $146,780, an average price of
$500 per acre. Wednesday, a sale
was conducted at Havre, Hill county,
where 51,364 acres were offered and
a total of 10,O16 acres were sold for
$161 1856, an average price per acre of
$16.11. This land brought the high
est price per acre of any of the three
sales.
Two Paid for Backing Out.
At Havre two buyers who claimed
they bid up the land too high refused
to make the payment Of Is per cent
on the tracts as required by law. Reg
lister Miller accordingly assessed the
maximum penalty for default against
them and n man who bid on three
tracts forfeited 5000 and the second
who bid on two, put up $500, making
a total of $1,000 which the state re-
ceives and still is the owner of the
land bid for.
Thursday, May %, the officials
handled the last sale which was at
Chinook, Blaine county, where 1892
acres were offered and 31,031 pur.
chased for $401,071, an average price
of 1922. The bidding was spirited
and there were many buyers as the
amount disposed Of shows. Some
were buyers from out of the state.
Other Sales Coming.
The state land office will conduc
the next sales as follows: At Malta
May 20, when 5000 acres will be Of
fered; at Glasgow, May 20, when 81,
600 acres will be put up. In Ponder;
county, June IS, when $4,000 acre
will be offered and in Teton county
June 10, when $4,000 acres will b
placed on the block.
Register Miller says except for
few spots the crops are not suffering
for rain in the counties he visited
Toole county has had a pretty goo
soaking, but must have more moistur
soon to bring the crop to it's bes
stage around Shelby.

Continued Rains Will Decrease Rice
 sAcreaee

What was thought earlier in the season would be normal ac-
 reage of rice has been reduced by the continued rains. It is probable that the yield will also
 be cut below normal in many fields in Texas and Louisiana ow ing to the poor stand in fields
 which are not reseeded after be- ing flooded by unprecedented
 rainfall.
 In the Texas and Southwest ern Louisiana sections particu
 larly the heavy rams have wash
 ed out many fields, and in some
 instances rlce farmers have re-
 planted three times. The scarci
 t. of seed rice has also become a
 problem is many localities, there
 being a shortage even at the be ginning of the planting season
 with resultant high prices. Those who do obtain noi nal yields this year will do so at greater expense than IT a nor
 maj season owing not only to the thigh price of seed, labor, etc, but to the extra work of reseed- ing fields Hooded by rains which
 made draining impossible until

The new Moore building ore

The new Moore building ore block east of the rice mill Is bearing completion and will be ready for occupancy between July 10th and August 1st. When completed a portion of it will be occupied by the Carlisle Inde- pendent ard the balance will be used by E. B. Roy for an office and ware house. The Independ ent will use the main front from which the paper will be issued and much more complete job printing office will be installed. MT. Roy will also have an office i the front part of the building with large hali leading to the rear where he will have a large ware room in which to store seed rice. bags etc. This build. ing will make an excellent place for both parties to conduct their respective lines of business.

too late to save the planted crop.
 E. A. Eignus, Secretary of the Southern Rice Growers Associ ation, who has recently returned from conferences in Washington in the interest Of his organization and it's members, stated today that about all the rice that would be planted has been put in and that a material reduction over last year is expected when all the returns are in. It is of course generally known," said Mir. Eignus, "that a late planted crop does not yield as we'll as the early crop. and it is very evident that the production Of rice in the United States this year will be less than earlier anticipated.
 ITO offset this. however" con. tinued Mir. Eignus. better prices are expected than have been secured in former years. The rice farmers have learned the value of organization and are depending on the Association this year to look after their in terests instead of going it alone as many of them have done in the past.
 The biggest producer of rice in the United States has recent ly signed contract with the AS sociation. and all rice grown this year by A. Kaplan at Crowley, Gueydan Estherwood and Rap. Ian, La, will be marketed through the Southern Rice Growers Association. MT. Rap. Ian markets around a hundred thousand bags of rice every sea. son.
 The alignment ef the country's largest rice producer with the Southern Rice Growers Asso citation shows that that organiza- .fion is the controlling factor in the lice industry of America to day, and with the constantly in creasing membership the rice farmers will come nearer getting a price for their crops this year that will be profitable to them in spite of the increased expense of planting, than they have in any year past.

Trade Excursionists Were Here We'd
 pesday

The trade excursion which was organized by the Board Of Commerce of Little Rock 10 make a swing around the circle, arrived in Carlisle Wednesday morning on schedule time and made about thirty minutes stay. There were about 120 of the leading business men of that city on the train, accompanied by brass band which furnished the music for the occasion.
 A large crowd of people of Carlisle and the surrounding country were at the station to meet the eXcursionists, whom they greeted with a friendly well come. Many of the business men were well acquainted with our business men, to whom they have sold many goods in the past.
 As soon as the train stopped and unloaded it's passengers the band played and there was a general shaking of hands, intro ductionS, etc., after which the visitors were treated to all the pure, fresh milk they could drink. the same being the prod uct of our numerous dairies.
 After the above proceedings Mayor K. l.. Lilly mounted an express truck which stood near by and in a few words welcomed the visitors to our city, also in troducing Gen. Peter Traub of Camp Pike. who made a few minutes talk. His talk was cut short by the yelling of al aboard by the conductor of the special. which denoted that their time was up and that they must be on their way, but what he said was interesting to his hearers.
 Everybody present seemed to enjoy the visit of our business friends from the Capital and ev- erything passed of iu g good humoredly way.
 Several of Carlisle's charming young ladies dispensed the milk, which seemed to be enjoyed by the visitors, several of whom.re- marked that it was much better than when itswas delivered to their residences in Little Rock notwithstanding the fact that it was milk from the same source.
 All of the party with whom we had the opportunity of meet ing were favorably impressed with the treatment they received in Carlisle and expressed the desire to come again when they had longer to stay. We were glad to have them make this short call and hope to have them with us again at some future time when we can give them a more appropriate reception for such an occasion.

Nobody really wants ''all that's

Fate may be against you for a
while without its being your fault
but if fate keeps on against you you'd
better analyze yourself.
A local teacher said she always
liked the children in her room to
appear fresh in the morning Some
we know of are that way all the

Self-praise not only is half scandal
but sometimes is wholly an untruth.
Never despair until they cease
