Gunner Cunningham, wearing a
distinguished service medal, shows
visitors to the ship how they tackled
submarines. Leading the way to

mo sign of life was to be seen
on the ship after a panic party
had put off in an open boat until
the order came to fire. Then this
forelatch flew open and the sides
of that dummy cabin fell outward,

steamer called the Stock Force un-

200, OOO-ACRF FARM TO RAISE WHEAT

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Jan. 8.
Wheat will be harvested next fall
from one of the largest farms,
comprising about 100000 acres of
Indian lands in Montana and wy
oming. OF this big tract, about
$4,000 acres of irrigated land have
been plcwed and seeded, and the
remainder, it is announced, will be
cultivated during the coming sum-
mer.
The land is located on the Grow,
Blackfeet and Fort Peck reserva-
tons in Montana and the Wing
river reservation in Wyoming. To
make this land productive a cor
poration with 100000 capital
was organized last spring when
Thomas D. Campbell, a North Da-
kota farmer, conceived the idea of
cultivating the thousands of acres
of the Indian lands in Montana and
Wyoming. He lacked capital, but
obtained the approval and assist
ance of the secretary of the inter-
ior, Franklin X. Lane and ]. P.
Morgan and other leading New
York bankers. The corporation
was then formed with several of
these bankers as members of the
board of directors and Campbell as
president.

The ore, as opened by the Jun

MEMBERS OF ITALIAN
MISSION IN j. S.
HAVE UNuS UAL
WAR RECORDS

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. g.. =
The Italian labor mission now
touring the United States. repre-
sents all parts of Italy and most
of the leading central labor bodies
of the country. There are eight
prominent members of the So
cialist and labor movements in the
mission identified with the pro-war
organizations, the Italian Socialist
union and the Italian Union of La
Dor, of which Edmondo Rossoni is
secretary and who was connected
before the war with the Italian Ia
Eor movement in America.
Several of the eight members of
the mission have made splendid
records in the war, having volun-
teered the day Italy sided with the
allies. One of them, Carlo Bazzi,
10 days after the world war began,
went to France, where he joined
the famous Peppino Garibaldi's le-
gion. He was made captain and
wounded in the fierce fighting of
the Argonne during December,
1914.
The one member who has no
military record is physically dis
qualified for military service.
Every member of the mission be-
fore the war preached anti-mili-
tarism and some of them served
prison sentences for their agita-
ton.
The delegation contains two
newspaper men, a member of the
Italian parliament, a city council
Tor of Rome and one of Carrara
and the vice mayor of Naples.
The head of the mission is AL
ceste De Ambris, a labor member
of the Italian chamber of deputies,
where he represents the agricul-
tura1 district of Parma. He has
been connected with the labor
movement since 1892. Because
of his activities he was exiled, and
for five years he lived in France
and Brazil, returning to Italy in
1903 after a declaration of an am
nesty.

ganese ore containing gold, silver
and lead. From the Yellow Pine
district of Clark county consider
able high-grade lead ore was
shipped, some lead product was
separated from a lead-zinc ore, and
considerable lead-zinc ore was
produced by the Combined Metals,
at Phoebe; the Groom mine, in
Lincoln county, and several prop
critics at Eureka.
The mine output of recoverable
zinc decreased from 22,307,S6S
pounds in 1917 to about 10000
900 pounds in 1918. The value
of the output decreased from 3d.
275,402 to about $1,267,O00. Near
ly all of the output came from
the Yellow Pine district of Clark
county, though there was a dis
tinct decrease from this region.
The Consolidated Coppermines,
in White Pine county, made large
shipments of zinc ore. as did the
Combined Metals company, at
Phoebe.

upon the initiative of some one
outside to make them effective.
While steps are being taken to
secure an amendment to the min
erals control act in accordance with
the expressed desire of Secretary
Lane, this, if passed, would result
only in reimbursing the miners for
their outlay. 1t would have no
effect upon the continuance of OPP
erations. 1t would leave us where
we were before the outbreak of
the war.
In 1917 the domestic product
was only about one-sixth of the
total consumption of manganese.
This year it had grown to one-
third, and next year it would come
close to supplying our total re-
uuirements. During the first six
months of this year, according to
a communication from the United
States geological survey, the out
put of this country was 1864
tons of manganese ore, containing
about 35 per cen of the metal,
and ore of that grade was being
shipped in October at the rate of
$4,000 tons monthly, or $4,000
tons per year.

LONDON, Jan. g.. A 20" ship
has come to London. She is q
gray, dingy, nonedescript kind of
ship, perhaps a collier or a coastal
tramp. But all London is flocking
to st. K~atherine's dock to see her,
for the frowsy cd tub represents
a development of naval warfare
which produced some of the finest
heroism in the history of sea fight
ing.
According to Sir Eric Geddes,
first lord of the British admiralty,
nothing could be more inspiring
than the conduct of the officers
and men on the 20" ships, those
mystery ships where for hours the
men lay, and were shelled and
killed and lay unattended until the
opportunity came to sink the en-
envy"
The 20" ship is certainly not
what she seems. At a signal her
hatchways can disclose glistening
four-inch guns, and her harmless
looking stays rap out wireless mes

American and allied operations in

On this huge farm not a horse
will be used. Instead, large tract
ors capable of turning over large
quantities of prairies were pur-
chased. In all, SO of these ma
chimes are now the property of the
corporation, and the blowing rec
ord for last summer was more than
one acre a minute for the work
ing time. In one day 1880 acres
were turned over and broken.
1t is proposed to organize the
farm into 5000 acre units, each
with it's own group of permanent
buildings, modernly equipped and
in charge of a competent farm
manager. Each farm will be sep
arately managed. Contracts for
the leasing of the land on long
term agreements have been X e
cuted with the government through
Secretary Lane.
Many acres of similar land ex-
list in practically all of the Pacific

that land to the returning soldiers.

BUSINESS MORTALITY

High prices make for low business mortality. This fact has again been demonstrated by the report on com- mercial failures for the year 1918. The number of failures for the year was actually one of the smallest on record and relatively-the growth in the number, of business houses being taken into consideration-perha the smallest. The total number of fail tres for the year, according to Dun's, was 1882, as compared with 13,S55 for 1917, 16,933 for 1916 and 22,156 for 1915. To find year with so few busi- ness fatalities one must go back to 1899, when the total was 9,337.
 If rising prices are the safety of the business man, descending prices are regarded as his greatest danger. But, though the price index descended sev eral points in January. the number of failures continues to be exceptionally small. For the whole month there were but 673 fatalities as compared with 1,178 in January, 1918, 1,54O ir 1917 and 2,0O9 in 1916. But this free dom from failure may be accounted
