RECOGNIZES VALUE OF PEAT
Its Use for Commercial Purposes Is
Becoming More Understood
Throughout the World.

Peat is extensively used as fuel in
northern Europe and as fertilizer in
the United States. In Europe gas.
charcoal, coke and number Of valu-
able by-products are produced from 1t.
Owing to the scarcity Of raw mate
rails In Europe, peat and peat moss
are employed also as substitutes for
absorbent cotton in the preparation of
surgical dressings, for wool and for
cotton and wooden cloth. In the United
States peat is utilized chiefly as ferti-
lizer filler, as stable litter and as an
absorbent for the uncrystalllzed resi-
dues of beet and cane sugar refnerles
In the manufacture Of stock feed.
Peat has long been used In ferti-
LIKING the soil, having been either ap-
piled as n direct fertilizer or used as
n filler for commercial fertilizer. Anal
ysis Of the peats Of the United States
show an average nitrogen content Of
about 2 per cent, proportion some
what higher than that found In some
commercial fertilizers.
The value Of peat in soil fertiliza-
tion is found in its nitrogen content
and in the beneficial mechanical eff
feet 1t produces upon certain lands.
Black, thoroughly decomposed peats
are most satisfactory for fertilizer, as
such peats are generally heavier and
more compact and contain more nj
trogen and less fbrous material than
the brown types

WHEN IN DANGER OF FIRE
Walk, but Don't Run, In Burning
Building or In Business Frenzy
Keep Cool.

When some one shouts Fire |" in a
theater those most likely to be tram
pied down are those who start q wild
stampede. Those who keep their heads
and act nationally stand better chance
OF escaping injury" remarks Forbes
Magazine. The cry Of "Flrel" was re-
Gently raised in the business world
and started stampede In many quar-
tiers. Now, 1t cannot be doubted that
the war time frenzied boom has
reached Its zenith and that prices are
moving downward. 1t remains to be
seen, however, whether 1t was wise to
attempt to force goods on the market
at greatly reduced prices and to can
Gel orders for fresh supplies on the
assumption that producers would also
cut their prices drastlcally In mad
effort to get from under. 1t Is worth
noting that wooden, shoe. silk, and
certain other manufacturers promptly
curtalled operations, thus refusing to
gamble to the limit in futures. If pro-
duction be curtailed on all sides, then
some merchants may find that they
overplayed the cancellation game.
Goods cannot be produced for some
little time at any tremendously lower
cost than formerly because It takes
time for raw materials, labor, taxes
and other expenses to fall drastically.
The advice prominently printed on
New York theater programs is: "ln
case Of fire walk to the nearest exit
Don't rum"
This advice might be worth needing
by the business community at this
moment.

CurIous Experience.

Perhaps one Of the most curious ex-
periences which ever fell to the lot Of
a man was one which happened to Mr..
Priestly, who was the geologist to the
first Shackleton expedition to the
South pole, and later was geologist TO
the Scott expedition. The party ashore
at Cape Royds on the first Shackletop
expedition were at dinner when the
Elmrod arrived to take them off. They
were obliged to leave their meal and
20 aboard the ship Immediately. Three
years later Prlestly returned to Cape
Royds with Scott, and going ashore en-
tered the hut, and completed the meal
which he had commenced In 1907. He
tells that the food was in exactly as
good condition as It was on the day
he laid his knife and fork down. This
fact is accounted for owing to the dry
ness Of the atmosphere. During the
three years that the hut had been unin-
hablted, the intense cold had frozen
the food, thus preserving II.

INITIATIVE II
To De DECIDED
BY. HIGH COURT.
Workmen' $ Compensa-
ton Act Is Tested Upon
Number Signatures.

Helena July 24-Arguments were
heard Saturday by the state supreme
court in the proceedings instituted By
Stephen Ely. president of the Montana
federation Of labor. against Governor
Sam n Stewart and Secretary Of State
{. T. Stewart, to compel the submission
to the voters Of the state in the Noyem-
Der election Of the proposed compensa-
tion measure.
Governor Stewart was represented by
Frank Woody, assistant attorney general
who contended that the action against
the governor should be quashed for the
reason that the governor had no knowi-
edge Of the number of signers on PED
ton except that information conveyed to
him by the secretary of state, and that
he is powerless to proclaim q measure
as initiated until the secretary Of state
certifies that petitions with sufficient
signers have been filed in he office Of
the secretary If state. The arguments
on this proposition only occupied q small
portion Of the time.
The main fight was over the PROPOSE
ton Of whether the county clerks had
properly certified the signed petitions to
the secretary of state. and also. the
proposition of when Withdrawals may be
filed in order to be effective.
Secretary Of State Stewart was re
presented by Attorneys J. A, Walsh
and Henry g. Smith Of Helena and
Sydney Sanner of Butte and w. NJ
Johnston of Billings. Louis 7. Donavon
Of Butte appeared for Stephen Ely.
Attorneys Smith and Sanner argued
the case for G.. IT, Stewart. Mr.: Dono-
van contended that it was the duty of
the secretary of state to certify to the
governor that a sufficient number had
quickly as the petitions We're filed in
uicqkly as tile petitions were filed in
the office Of the secretary of state.
Attorneys for Mr. Stewart urged tsa.
such was not the proper procedure
and that it was not necessary for the
secretary of state to certofy to the
governor until after the time for the
filing Of petitions had expired.
Attorney Donovan admitted the right
Of sgners to withdraw if done within the
proper time. After a short parley of
the attorneys they agreed on the facts
to be submitted to the court 50 that
the Introduction Of testimony was un
necessary.
Chief Justice Brantley anfounced
that the court would render an early
decision as it would go into recess for
the summer shortly. He said that an
oral decision would be made and that
later the court would write an opinion
up most of the day. At the conclusion
of arguments the court took the mat
ters under advisement.
