FARMERS ARE ADVISED

COLLECTIVE MARK ETING

Lewistown, Nov. 3O-The committee
of seven. appointed by the Central
Montana Grain Growers association to
formulate a plan for the marketing or
grain, especially wheat, for the grow
ers in the organization, Friday listened
to an address by A. A. Gilmore, repre-
senting the Pacific Northwest Whea.
growers association. who explained in
detail the plans and policies followed
by that organization, which had work.
ed out satisfactorily. The tentative
plans of the local committee were bas-
ed upon these, but Mr.. Slmore added a
vast amount of information concern
ing the matter.
In brief the features of the plan are
contracts with the farmers extending
over several years in the future for the
handling of their crops; bond issues,
with the grain as collateral, which pro-
vides immediate cash both for the or
ganization and the individual farmers.
The first payments to the farmers may
be much below what the wheat Use lat
er sold for and he gets the difference
up to the average price received.

A LOWER LEVEL
Minneapolis Report For Last
Week Indicates that Inflated
Bubble is Punctured.
HEALTHY CONDITION COMING
The Down Hill Grade Means Tenn
porary Unpleasant Conditions to
Some, But Must Come to In
sure Future Good Health
in Nations Business.

Minneapolis, Mimi, November 27--
About the only feature in last weeks
trading was the sharp upturn on
Tuesday. 1t is regarded as significant
of the extreme nervousness of the
market and of the break in public sen
timent which has been so unanimously
Bearish, and which, no doubt, has
been responsible in a large measure
for the prevailing depression.
A quick recession from the advance
resulted from more news of bank
failures, stagnant business in all lines
and from the report of large stocks
of flour drugging the eastern mar
kets. Such conditions mutually initiate
against a permanent restoration of
buying confidence.
Declines now cover the extensive
period of approximately se~venty-fve
days. Strong measures to check the
downward trend have so far failed
the holding of grains, investigation Of
the marketing systems, threatened
legislation, fairly good Wheat exports
all have been ineffective. Normal buy
ing remains restricted to the minimum
OF immediate needs and consequently
commodity stocks of all kinds increase
and a general feeling of discourage
ment is manifest.
1t is conceded by most observers
that a permanently lower level of
prices is reached, hat the inflated
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1920-12-03

bubble of unsound, fictitious prices has
been punctured to the ultimate good
health of business on the firm, solid
basis of normal supply and demand.
War conditions were productive of
abnormally heavy demand, lessened
production, waste, serious Transports
ton depreciation and a general inter
erence with the normal economic laws.
The reversal of these conditions,
though unpleasant medicine for ev-
erybody, is considered in reality the
only possible cure that must inevitably
come sooner or later.
1t is evident that a fair run of new
Corn is ready for movement. Feeding
may continue to be more profitable
and more than ordinarily heavy, but
the movement from first hands is al
ready normal and the usually large
December receipts are expected. The
quality of the new Corn averages bet
ter than in recent years, some of it
grading No. 2.
Oats are in a bad rut lacking absol-
utely any constructive future. Oats
exports simply are not to any extent
worth mention. The low price is the
only recommendation for their pur-
chase. Any change in news, however,
should easily cause a substantial re-
action, for, although terminal stocks
are quite large, county receipts Of
late have been materially reduced.
Exports Of Wheat continue daily in
fair volume, but the possibility Of
world shortage grows more remote,
and Wheat being high compared with
any other grains seems still on unsub-
stantial ground.

MAR CAR HERD
LEADS THE WEST
northeastern Montana Sets The
Pace For the West in Short
Horn Cattle.
ONE SIRE BRINGS 100000
MAJ Supreme, Owned by Lowe G.
Powers of Near Bainville Is
Awarded First Prize at Pa
cific International Live
stock Show at Port
land, Ore.

Since the close of the recent Pa
cific International Livestock Show held
at Portland, Ore, the Mar Car herd
OF Short Horn cattle, owned by Lowe
and Powers of near Bainville, Mon
tana, has again become the foremost
topic in pure bred cattle circles.
1t was at this international event
that Mar Supreme, the junior herd
bull, owned by Lowe & Powers won
tlrst prize over all entries. The Port
land livestock show was one of the
largest and best of it's kind ever held
west of the Mississippi river. William
Harnett, of Argentine. South America,
one OF the best live stock authorities
on the two western continents, acted
as judge.
Mar Supreme was first in a class of
ten superior yearling bulls, the entries
coming. from Oregon, Washington,
Colorado, California and Montana.
This tends to lend further proof that
as good as the best, and the very
best pure pure bred cattle are being
bred right in Northeastern Montana.
Earl of Glencoe, the senior herd
bull from the Mar Car Farms which
stood at the head of the herd for the
past three years, was second in hon
ors among the aged class At the same
show, thus rendering to this firm the
distinction of having their two herd
bulls stand first and second in one of
the largest livestock shows on the
continent, an honor which seldom
comes. to any breeder. Following the
show. the Earl of Glencoe topped the
sales of Shorthorns at Portland, SELL
ing for 100000 to an Idaho breeder.
The Mar Car Farms have just fin
ished showing on the western fair
circuit, having showed at the Western
Royal at Spokane, the Western at
Lewistown, Idaho, and the Pacific In
ternational at Portland. Their herd is
now en- route home, and will go into
winter quarters at the farm near
Bainville.
For the past two years. the Mar
Car herd has been under the capable
management of John Macdonald, one
of the best authorities and handlers
Of cattle in the entire west, and it is
greatly due to his able management
that this enviable record has been at
tanned.
