ing a democratic control over the or
ga~nization's official papers and funds.
An organization with such false
and autocratic management cannot
long survive. Such autocratic powers
in the hands of it's leaders always
lead to corruption and dishonesty.
The American Federation of Labor,
the Farmers Union, the Equity and
all other organizations and move
ments would be powers for evil in
stead of good, if they were so domi-
mated and controlled. The farmers
of the Northwest must assert them
selves, as they are doing in North
Dakota, to rid themselves of such
a false leader as A. C. Townley has
proved himself to be-and take pos
session of the organization if they
wish to preserve it-and make it a
power for good in American politics.

COUNTY
PASS

At a recent meeting of the state
association of county officers the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted as hand
ed to the press for publication.
Be 1t Resolved, by the State Asso-
citation of County Officers Of the State
of Montana, in convention assembled,
that we, public officers charged with
the duty of collection of taxes and dis
tribution of county funds, view with
alarm the increasing tendency to place
large bond issues and other indebted
ness upon u state. We call the at
tention of the taxpayers of this state
to the fact that the state in the sub
divisions of counties, cities and school
districts is already carrying a total
lion dollars that the bond issues to be
submitted to the electorate at the
coming election, if carried, will amount
to an additional forty million dollars.
that the present conditions of Thu
bond market of state and municipal
bonds is such that these bonds can
not be sold for less than six or sever
per cent; that the taxes necessary tC
pay the interest alone on this enor.
nous total of ninety million dollars
would be five and one-half million
dollars in taxes. In other words, the
taxes of the state will have to be in
creased twenty-five per cent to pro,
vide for interest alone.
This enormous tax bill from a state
which is already paying the highest
individual taxes of any state in the
Union, we believe is a subject thai
cannot be too seriously considered by
the people of Montana in considering
the question of voting on these bono
issues. All have their merits, but tn
depreciating of the purchasing powe.
of money and the already heavy bur
dens of taxation in Montana sugges
to US that serious consideration be Civ
en- the problems of taxation.

POULTRY HINTS
FOR OCTOBER

October Egg Production.
The old hens should be melting this
month and consequently not laying
many eggs. The majority of pullets
have not begun laying, there egg pro-
duction for October is quite low, be-
ing only 12.S per cent for light breeds
and 2S.7 per cent for heavy breeds in
the egg laying contests. At the Ex-
pertinent Station it has been even
lower, being u per cent for the heavy
and 81 for the light breeds.
Farm Flock Egg Laying Contest.
Starting November 1st and during
one year the Farm Bureau will con-
duet a farm flock egg laying contest.
Each contestant will agree to enter his
entire flock and feed and care for
them as near directions as possible and
submit a report once each month to
the local farm bureau office. A sum-
mary report once each month will be
issued, giving average feed cost, av-
efdge egg pIOuuCtloH anu pIOllt anu
loss. See your County Agent or Home
Demonstration Agent for copy of
rules and enter your flock. No fees to
be charged.
Keeping Accounts.
Many people make the statement:
"There is no money in poultry" yet
how many actually know? The only
way to be sure is to keep figures. The
Farm Bureau has recently issued a
simple account book which may be had
for 15c, each. 1t is not complicated, yet
has all the essential details so that it
will be possible by examination Of the
record to tell where the leaks have
been and thus give an opportunity to
improve and make profit the next year.
November 1st is the best time to start
a years account. See about obtaining
your account book now from your

ton Agent or Extension Service, Boze-
man, Montana.

motion schemes all failures and his
former friends repudiating his lead
ership.
In subsequent articles the writer
will give the details OF Iownley's
newspaper organization, his bank
scheme, his Florida enterprise, his
stores promotion and his political
corruption of the State Bank of
North Dakota. J.. R. Waters, former
manager of the North Dakota State
Bank, will follow with two articles,
dealing with Townley's chain bank
scheme and the State Bank, giving
particular transactions which led up
to his resignation and reputation of
the management of the institution.
The writer will show the fallacy Of
a personally-owned farmers organi-
cation, the fallacy of allowing one
man to dominate any political or
ganization and the necessity of hav-

promotions. Townley was put on the
defensive. He had to abandon his
chain bank scheme and necessarily
his Florida enterprise. His activities
in Florida were threatened with pub
licity; his private financial secretary
wired the plantation manager at Mi
ami: eve want no publicity whatever
north of Jacksonville"
In fact, Townley the promoter, was
so hard pressed because of the at
tacks on his private enterprises, that
he in desperation attacked and re-
pudiated a number of his close asso-
ciates in self defense, and the recent
primary election this year brought
defeat to two of his congressman, his
candidates for secretary of state,
state treasurer, state superintendent
of schools, judge Of the supreme
court and railroad commissioner. Over
half of the officials elected by him
two years ago have repudiated his
leadership and he and his associates
nave been openly charged with en-
bezzlement and misrepresentation of
funds Of the League. And the present
manager of the State Bank is under
like accusations, while the president
of Townley's largest banking institu-
ton stands convicted of criminal man.

NINE
TO E HORSE

When Thompson's colt swan the
river to get a drink of water, that was
thought to be about the silliest thing
ever. Yet that performance was ex-
celled many times during the late
worlds war;. And it was a man, not q
yearling colt, that broke the record
Astonishing things were done, during
the war, many of which, doubtless,
have not yet come to light.
The Governments leather (head)
expert ordered $4,000 high grade ar
my saddles for just 100000 cavalry
horses. This is about nine saddles
per horse. Just why that expert fig
ures he would need such a back-load
of saddles for those horses has never
been ascertained, but this mental per-
Torrance clearly puts him in the same
booth with Thompson's colt. See if you
can solve the riddle; nobody else seems
to be able to.
Again another leather expert order
ed enough harness at one time to re-
quire in their construction 100000
more hides than the Government could
procure in a years time.
Still another expert CD ordered six
halters; five nose bags and four COW
ers a piece for those cavalry horses,
and another one purchased four curry
combs for each of them.
But another dollar a year" man
pulled the biggest 'boner' of them all.
He purchased two branding irons a
piece for those horses-not ordinary
steel branding irons either, but made
of copper and fearfully expensive,
To cap the climax, another expert
ordered that the horses be branded or
the hoofs, regardless of the fact that
the marke would grow out in a few
weeks.
Verify, Thompson's fool colt had
plenty of company.
