ABOUT SHOE PRICES
FOR COMING YEAR

Will shoe prices come down this
year?" is a query so frequently put
to the shoe retailer these days, and
which he finds so difficult to answer
An official of the F.. Mayer Boot
& Shoe Co., of Milwaukee, makers of
Honorbilt Shoes, in a recent inter-
view stated that we can not expect
reduction in shoeg prices for some
time to come
''Not so long," says this official,
"as shoe manufacturers are Obliged
to pay present prices for leather and
all material that goes into the con-
struction of shoes, will prices be re-
duced. There have been some fluc-
tuations in leather prices, but on the
whole the market remains high and
very firm. Let me show you figures
indicating the increase in the cost of
feathers over prices we paid in 1914.
Take cut soles, for instance. In 1914
we paid 8 cents pair, and now we |
pay rs cents; calf skin then selling
for 25 and 80 cents, now brings |
S1.18. Kid skin at rs cents, is now
$1.35. We procured colored kid for
30 cents then, and now are obliged |
to pay $3.50 to $3.50 for 1t. All find
lngs are in the same proportion, at |
least 800 per cent higher.
There is no indication of any re-
iuction in these prices, judging from
Industrial reports from experts who
Ire in a position to know conditions.
''It will be some months before
will be adequate to sup
ply the active home consumption
Ind fairly strong foreign demand
hat naturally came with the end of
he war and the return of peace.
eve find some satisfaction, how
yer, in the fact that shoe produc- 4.
ion is slowly on the increase, due /,
o more stable working conditions
nd much smaller labor turnover.
eve would not venture a predic-
ion that prices will go higher or
over in 1921, but we feel very con- c
ident in our own mind that there
yill be no marked change toward
over prices this year"

Montana's disbursements in March
were four times greater than the re-
ceipts, less s25, according to the
report of State Treasurer H. L. Hart,
for the month ending March 81. The
disbursements were largely in the
purchase of warrants and the balance
was cut materially.
The balance on hand February 20,
1920, WAS s2,935,884.25. There
were disbursements of s1,579, 49O.08,

The Lewistown school Election

LeWistOwn has been having a
school fight, for and against Super
intendent Frankie. In the election
held recently three pro-Franzke trus-
tees and three anti-Franzke trustees
were elected, while the vote on the
seventh trusteeship was a tie. 1t
is also a curious and interesting
fact that the total of all votes cast
for the Frankie candidates and the
total of all votes cast for the anti
Frankie candidates are exactly the
same.
