RELEASED FARM LABOR FOR
STATE HIGHWAY PROJECTS

With the help of commercial and
civxic organizations and farm bu-
reaus throughout the state, the state
highway commission is preparing to
go ahead with various projects at a
much more rapid pace by utilizing
labor from harvesting operations as
it is released, according to R. S. zah-
niser of the commission. The execu-
tive committee of the commission
will also open five bids on projects.
Four of the projects are in Sweet
Grass county and one is in Park
county.
John N. Edy, chief engineer of the
commission, sent a QUESTIONABLE to
all road contractors throughout the
state, to determine the number of
men and teams required to finish the
work in Montana this eason and also
to get the rate of pay for each.
Mr.. Edy also wrote to all agencies
using labor in harvesting the crops
and asked for their cooperation in
improving the highway labor situa-
ton, and regulating the distribution
to the points where it is needed.
While he does not wish to detract
from harvest operations, Mr.. ,Edy
said the state is handicapped for
highway project labor, and asked for
all surplus men and teams. He
asked these organizations for the
number of men and teams available
and prevailing wages.
Much assistance is being received
from these sources as the harvesting
operations are being completed, Mr..
Zahniser said.

HOW Am INSANE MAN FOOLED

mally, what would you like te
drink"
"'Buttermilk,' replied, because
saw some buttermilk on the table
and during training or in matches we
professionals do not touch alcoholic
drinks except perhaps a little gin and
ginger beer after a hard game.
Was There, Indeed
THAT, your honor, is how l come
to make the remark that l knew the
queen of Spain. Is there anything SO
wonderful about it?'
you could have heard a pin drop
in the court room. Not a soul, in
Guiding myself, now believed that
Quinn was insane; he had given the
day and date, the James of the teams,
the place it was played and referred
to copies of the London Illustrated
News detailing the game, giving the
dates of publication. AS far as max
ing out a case of insanity went, we
hadn't a leg left to stand on.
Ibid you get the drink?' l asked,
"'You bet I did, said Quinn. L
reached over to get the dipper to take
a drink of buttermilk out of the
bucket when the princess said:
The Balloon Goes Up
"'"Hell, Quinn, that buttermilk
fresh. Don't drink it. Wait a
few minutes and I'll churn you some
myself"
"'And, taking out a little gold
churn, Ena of Battenberg, now queen
Of Spain, proceeded to churn until
she made butter and then poured me
out a fresh dipperful.'
"The man." said Mr.. Mcconnell,
was committed to Warm Springs
and is there at the present time,
.hopelessly insane"

Thirty-one potatoes, % of which
were good, merchantable potatoes,
were dug from one hill in the patch
at the old Soldiers Home at Column
bia Falls, the tubers weighing a
total of 81 pounds. There are sew
eral acres of the potatoes at the
Home and nearly every hill dug
yielded enormously. j. P. Christen-
sen, a world var veteran, is the gar
dener at the home and has produced
some remarkable results in vege-
tables for the table of the old veter-
n Practically everything needed
to supply the home is raised on the
place, including beef and pork.

COST IS
$4,000 A YEAR
ESTIMATED THAT 800 GREAT
FALLS FAMILIES MOVE
TWICE EACH YEAR
Is Harvest Time for the Transfer
Men, but Takes Father Away
From His Work for a Day or Two
and Interrupts Community Life;
Annual Move Now in Progress.

Great Falls people, of whom it Ii
estimated 500 families move on al
average of twice a year, spring ant
fall, spend approximately $50 eaef
time they move, or an aggregate Of
$4,000 annually.
The annual fall moving in Great
Falls is by no mean all melody
real estate men say. For the trans
fer companies it is harvest time, but
for the tenant and landlord, not al
together so.
Fall moving takes father away
from his work for one or two days,
cutting into his pay if he is a day
laborer and interfering with office
routine if he is in the white collar
class.
Interrupts Community Spirit
Fall moving interrupts the COM
munity spirit that grows best when
folks live next door" year after
year.
The it%inerant ones spend addition
al hundreds of dollars on new cur
tains to match the woodwork in the
new home, new furniture to go into
that awkward corner" and waste a
ton or two of coal before they get
the hang of the new furnace.
This fall, according to transfer
men, moving is on in full swing to
as great an extent as in any previous
year, despite their midsummer be-
lief that tenants were afraid to give
up their homes lest they be unable
to find any place to move into.
"Fa11 moving panaro1Iv ctarfc
about the first of September and
continues through October" says an
official of a local transfer company.
Most leases are up on September l.,
and moving vans of all the transfer
companies are being kept busy and
will be for weeks to come"
Conflicting forces have been at
work influencing the moving situa-
ton in Great Falls this fall. Ten
ants who have moved because of
rent increases have swelled the num-
Der, but have been offset if not out
numbered by those who stayed where
They were on account of the housing
,hortage. Apartment buildings that
been left 40 per cent vacant in
September of past years are 100 per

Moving day is unpleasant enough
the movers, but it really is a
valuable day, when Great Falls gets
Itself scrubbed and polished in many

neglected. Real estate dealers say

THIEF ELECTED TO
FRENCH CHAMBER, RESIGNS

PARTISAN extraordinary story
of the election of a French soldier
to the chamber of deputies and his
subsequent conviction by court
martial and sentence to imprison-
ment for two years has come to light
here. Lieutenant Verniers of artillery
is the man. When the tickets were
being prepared for the election a SOL
der candidate was desired in the de-
partment of the Nord and Verniers'
name was proposed by national re
publican senator who said that YER
niers had Sc wounds and had received
II citations for bravery.
Verniers was then in hospital,
but he was elected without appearing
before his constituents. Later it was
learned that he was charged with
stealing 10000 francs from the funds
Of his regiment. He was courtmar-
tailed and sentenced to two years i'm
and has resigned from
the chamber Of deputies, after hay
ing been member of that body for
48 hours.

MONTANA is PLANNING
FOR GREATER ACTIVITY

HELENA, Mont. un-
feazed by three years of drouth in
certain sections, appears, to judge
from the state press, to be about to
enter upon a most interesting year.
One of the liveliest political cam
paigns in the states history is ex-
pected; development of oil fields is
likely, and the greatest revival of
mining since the state was discovered
is in prospect. In addition, among
other things, are expected the influx
of many immigrants; completion of
number of railway projects, open
ing up rich and as yet comparatively
unsettled sections; and completion of
many highways.
Millions of dollars in bonds have
been voted by nearly all the counties
to be expended on highway improve
ment, and the railroads are expected
to complete project which had been
planned before the war.

1t had showed q great deal during the
last few days and getting enough to
eat had been no easy matter.
Near by they saw white house.
There was a garden around 1t; nice
big garden and just the place for birds
In the summer time.
But these birds were here in the win
ter time, too, and they were given
bread crumbs and suet all winter long.
When snow covered the suet 1t was
brushed of for them.
1t was all very delightful The last
few days. however, had seemed to be
very busy ones in the white house.
The birds could see that green's were
being hung everywhere, over the pic
lures, book cases and mirrors, and
wreaths were put in all the windows.
Preparations were evidently being
made for some unusual event.
There seemed to be no end to the
amount of green's. Some were wound
to look like long ropes and great
branches were put behind large pic
lures. The house was gay indeed with
fires, which were burning in all the
fireplaces
Much wood was carried In, and the
birds thought how warm the people in
side must be, and how cold 1t was
outside. They shivered and wished
they had gone South after ALL
Then a little tree was carried In,
and one of the birds that was near the
dining room told the others that the
