Costs $40 to Vote

Elections held in Silver Bow coun-
ty this year will cost the taxpayers
between $4,000 and $4,000 ac-
cording to the estimate of the clerk
and recorder. Taking the total num-
Der of registered voters as a basis, it
costs SIS a name to maintain the cleo
tion machinery, and taken on a basis
of the number of votes cast at cleo
tions already held it costs $40 a
name. Five elections already have
been held and there are two more to
take place. The elections already
held include city primaries, city al
dermanic election, school, presiden-
tial primary and the general primary.
The elections remaining are the gen
eral election and the election to pass
on a special school bond issue of
1925. 900. In keeping with the times
elections to be advancing in
cost. In 1919 six elections cost Sill
yer Bow county s74,462.S7 and in
the same number cost S79,O19.

COMMUNITY STOCK SALE TO BE
HELD AT KALISPELL OCT. 20

Between 500 and 1000 head OF
grade and purebred cattle will be Of
fered for sale in the auction ring at a
big community stock sale which will
be held in Kalispell on October 20.
This was determined at a meeting
at the farm bureau office of local
stockmen. It is expected that a
large number of cattle from other
sections will be entered for the sale.
One grower from the Bitter Root
valley stated that he would consign
so head.
The sale will be held at the T. ].
Koenig farm, four and a half miles
northwest of Kalispell, where ample
feed with running water and plenty
of pens are available to accommodate
the herds of stock which will be ga
thered for the sale.
Col. B. j. Blackwood, T. ]. Koenig
and Everett Bros. were appointed as
a committee to handle all details in
connection with the sale, and A. J
McGlynn was selected as sales mana
ger. McGlynn successfully handled
the purebred sale last spring.
In the neighborhood of 500 head
of cattle have already been entered
and it is expected by the promoters
that when a canvass is made close to
1 900 will be consigned to run
through the auction ring.

STATE HOG GROWERS ORGANIZE
TO FIGHT ALFALFA WEEVH

Vigorous measures for the protec-
ton of Montana against the alfalfa
weevil, which has reached an Idaho
county adjoining the border of this
state, were demanded at a meeting
of alfalfa growers, dairymen and
consumers held in Helena a few days
ago. A state organization was form
ed to bring before the farmers the
danger of the weevil and to tell them
how to prevent its spread.
Strict enforcement of the present
quarantine on hay shipments from
Idaho and Utah will be supplemented
by embargoes on other products
known to transport the weevil if the
plans of the association succeed. Bills
making ever more rigid provision for
preventive measures will be brought
before the coming legislative ses-
sion.
Organization was effected by the
election of c. H. Campbell of Great
president; George Lewis of
Manhattan, vice president; H. s..
Buell. of Bozeman, treasurer, and the
following named directors:
w. L. Irving of Pipestone Springs,
w. b. Harlan, of Como, Senator Geo.
R. Featherly of Dillon, James Crit
in of Chinook, and Professor F. s..
Cooley of Bozeman.

UNIQUE in many respects is the
threshing machine that has been in
vented by R. H. Owen of Butte, who
has had 20 years experience in
threshing grain. Mr.. Owen has been
exhibiting his machine at the rooms
of the chamber of commerce and dru-
ing the week gave a demonstration to
a number of interested persons of mis-
claims for the separator. 1t VIII ne
manufactured and put on the market
in Butte, according to the present
plans of the inventor and DR.. E. +.
Maginn, who is Mr.. Ovens partner in
the venture.
This machine, which is known IS
the Owen-Maginn thresher, ian be
put on the market, engine and sep
arator for about $4,000 less than any
machine of similar capacity now be-
ing sold, according to the inventor.
1t weighs $500 pounds less than any
other. 1t has fewer parts to oil and
fewer parts to replace. 1t is more
economical for the farmer.
Mr.. Owen showed how the machine
could be fitted to thresh wet grain,
buckwheat, peas and beans, and back
to heavy, tough grain again without
the loss of a minutes time. In any
standard, he said, when changing
from the bottom of the stack to light
grain, or to buckwheat, it is neces-
sary to shut down the machine. The
Owen-Maginn machine can be adj
justed instantly so that six rows of
teeth are up, four rows or a set of
blanks, by merely turning a couple of
cranks. Another turn and all the
teeth are up again, the separator
merrily meanwhile.
Absence of Tailings.
The next important point, Mr..
Owen said, was the absence of a tail
carrier or separator, which, in
ordinary machines, catches I'M
threshed grain and carries it back to
the feed end again and sends it on its
a second time. With the
Butte invention such grain is thresh-
I'd by a fan as it enters the feed line
10 the recleaner where it is again
handled by an air stream that re-
all chaff. From the recleaner
It can be sacked or loaded into wagon
Is desired. The machine cleans all
grain twice.
The Owen-Maginn machine has
)nly IA oiling bearings as against Sc
IN some other makes. 1t has only
tx pieces of shafting as against at
east 22 on other machines. 1t is said

Grey Wolf Follows Auto.

1t is seldom that a gray wolf will
invite violent death by prowling
about an inhabited ranch in broad
daylight. It's not the nature of the
animal. But a large gray wolf met
just that kind of death by just such
careless prowling about the ranch
of Louis Pitman near Belgrade a few
days ago.
The animal was first discovered by
Casey Shanholtzer and Virgil Pit
man, who fastened to secure a rifle
at the neghbor's some distance away,
the trip for the gun being made in
an automobile. While they were af-
ter the rifle the animal was seer
by Louis Pitman and his son neither
of whom had a larger calibered rifle
than a 20.
Upon the return of Casey and Vir-
gil the wolf was till proving with
in 200 yards of the Pitman home, and
Virgil downed him with one shot.
The animal weighed 60 pounds.

are to gather historical data, keep a
permanent record of the pioneers and
to bind together in a bond of fellow
ship the sturdy men and women who
brayed the hardships of a new coun-
try and who helped to ary an en-
pire out of a wilderness.
Nearly 200 pioneers have been en-
rolled and perhaps half that many
were present at the meeting today.
AS it's first officers the association
chose C. A. Thurston for president
and Mrs. Frank P. Leiper for secre-
tary. The annual meetings of the
society will be held each year on the
first day of the eastern Montana fair
at Glendive.
Among old-timers of special note
who were in attendance were Will
liam Cheney of Fairview and Charles
Sterile of Newton. Mr.. Cheney first
came to eastern Montana in 1854 as
a teamster with Sully's expedition
and after serving for some years in
the army settled on a ranch near
Fairview in 1877, where he has since
resided. Mr.. Sterile was a soldier in
the old Seventh cavalry and was with
Reno'S command at the time or the
Custer massacre on the Little Big
Horn in 1876. His company was
ordered to go to the rescue of Custer
and his comrades, but arrived on the
too late. A few years later he
was discharged from the army and
has since lived in the lower Yellow
stone valley.
Senator George McCone, who was
a mail carrier in the late 70's be-
tween Fort Lincoln and Fort Keogh,
was unable to be present at the meet
ing, but sent his greetings to those
assembled A telegram of regret
was also received from General Man
iger John M. Rapelje of the North
ern Pacific, who now resides in St.
Paul. In the early SOS Mr.. Rapelje
vas a brakeman running out of Glen
live and later rose to high official
'ank with the Northern Pacific.

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Mr.. Ashelman is only one of thousands
who suffered for years, owing to the gener-
al belief in the old, faise theory that"Uric
Acid causes rheumatism. This erroneous
belief induced him and legions of unfor-
tunate men and women to take wrong
treatments. You might just as well at
tempt to put out a fire with oil as to try
and get rid of your rheumatism, neuritis
and like complaints, by taking treatments
supposed to drive Uric Acid out of your
blood and body. Many physicians and sci
entists now know that Uric Acid never did,
never can and never VIII cause rheuma-
tism: that it is n natural and necessary
constituent of the blood; that it is found
in every newborn babe; and that without
it we could not live!
These statements may seem strange to
some folks who have all along been led to
believe in the old Uric Acid humbug. 1t
took Mr.. Ashelman fifty years to find out
this truth. He learned bow to get rid of
the true cause of his rheumatism, other
disorders. and recover his strength from
'The Inner Mysteries a remarkable book
now being distributed free by an author
ity who devoted over twenty years TO the
study Of this particular trouble.

Over fifty years ago a young
physician practiced widely in a
rural district and became famous
for his uniform success in the
curing of disease. This was DIR.
Pierce, who afterwards estab-
lished himself in Buffalo, N. Y,
and placed one of his descriptions,
which he called Golden Medical
Discovery" in the drug stores Of
the United States SO that the pub
lie could easily obtain this very
remarkable tonic, corrective and
blood-maker. DR.. Pierce manu-
featured this Discovery" from
roots and banks - a corrective
remedy, the ingredients of which
nature had put in the fields and
forests, for keeping us healthy
Few folks or families now living
have not at sometime or other used
this Golden Medical Discovery"
for the stomach, liver and heart.
Over twenty-four million bottles
of this tonic and blood remedy
have been sold in this country.

WEST UNBEATABLE
SAYS JOHN CLAY
MAN WHO MARKETS MUCH OF
MONTANA'S LIVESTOCK
Is AN OPTIMIST
With Tremendous Crops of Hay and
Grain This Year Montana Will
Quickly Come Back; Has Kept in
Close Touch With This Section for
Half a Century.

Bad weather last year coupled with
tight money and increasing transpor-
tation costs, dealt the livestock in
dustry the worst blow it has ever
sustained. This is the opinion of
John Clay, of the commission firm of
Clay, Robinson e Co., Chicago, who
was in Billings a few days ago. Cat
tie and sneep men suffered more, he
said, during the IL months which
ended May / last, than they did in
the historic black year of 1886.
"But," he added, Montana and
the great west are unbeatable. They
never know when they are beaten.
And with tremendous crops of grain
and hay this year, they will recover
quickly. In two or three years there
will be no trace of the bad effect of
the past year.
The physical condition of the west
is excellent. There is more grain,
more hay, more grass than ever be-
fore. In fact, this great country is
overlooking with prosperity.
Easier Money Coming
1--WE have seen the worst of the
tight money situation. Money is still
tight. But conditions are getting
better. This has been brought about
by the wonderful crops ofwheat, ce-
reals and beets. The west is made of
sheer nerve. Everybody is an optim-
list, and optimism is unbeatable"
Mr.. Clay has been in close touch
with the livestock and other inter
ests of the west since he came to this
country from Scotland in 1874. In
terested in a string of western banks
as we'll as livestock, he has kept
in touch with this section of
the country for nearly half a century,
and though he lives in Chicago, he
says he is lever satisfied unless he
can visit Montana and Wyoming four
or five times a year. And he does
it now with greater ease than form
erly. 1t used to be that he crossed
the Atlantic almost as often as he
the Montana state line. He
has made 80 odd trips to Britain and
he continent. But he said laughing
y that the income tax had interfered
somewhat of late with that practice.
Cos of Marketing
The west" he said, sis simply
the results of following the
lemagogues in the past. The dema-
sogues and political mountebanks
l~arrassed the railroads to the point
If disintegration, and now the rail-
Dads, which were denied a fair show
n normal times, must do a great
Ieal of reconstruction at far higher
ost. The west. like other PARTS of
he country, forget or ignored the
act that the railroads are not owned
y a few wealthy men, but by a large
of average citizens. The
onsequences is that the average citi- /
must now pay the bill. {
"It used to be possible to market
steer for $3.50. Today it cannot {
e done for less than $13." I
In view of this and the costs of S
lbor, Mr.. Clay said he saw no pros !

Territorial Limitation Bounded on
the West by Musselsheu River;
Some Men Who Helped to Make
Montana History Present and Over

A large gathering of old settlers
met at the Dawson county court

ton, to which are eligible for mem

we're residents of eastern Montana
prior to September 1, 1890.
The territorial limitations defined
by the organization extend from the
Canadian border on the north to the
border on the south and as
far west as the Musselshell river, and
in about Is counties in the
eastern end of the state. The pur-
poses and objects of the association

pect of any lowering in the retail
prices of meat.
AS for the sheep industry, Mr..
Clay declared that present conditions,
under which flockmasters are COM
PEELED to pay herders from $50 to
$120, besides feeding them were in
tolerable.
''The sheep business cannot exist
under present circumstances" he
concluded. "But there will be a
change. Rest assured of this. AS
regards railroads, the livestock in
dustry, and everything else natural
and economic laws finally prevail, no
matter how politicians may try to
legislate otherwise"

AS the result Of a melting held
here to discuss the project of build
ing a creamery at Twin Bridges, a
committee was reported to make a
survey of the locality to determine
the number of cows that could be
depended on for the creamery and
how many ranchers would become
stockholders. The creamery would
be a cooperative concern.

MONTANA MAN gMWEMTS NEW
GRAIN THRESH0MG MACHINE

to be the only separator on the mar
ket with a continuous frame, being
built on a Howe truss. The sepa-
rator alone costs $3.50 to $500 less
than Others.
1t only requires a IL to 15-horse
power engine to do the work which
in other machines requires a 35-horse
power engine, a big saving in engine
and coal, according to Mr.. Owen. The
cost of the engine required to run an
old-fashioned separator of similar ca
pacity would be nearly $4,000. The
Butte machine would require an en-
CINE costing about $1,700. This is
due to the absence of friction which
was brought about by eliminating I'M
necessary parts. Through the elimi-
nation of friction, only one-half the
power is required. The Butte ma
chine has only three belts as against
from z to rs in other makes.
Handles All Kinds.
This machine said Mr.. owen,
who had charge of the demonstration,
will handle all kinds of grain, un-
der all conditions, without loss of
time. 1t is lighter, more simple,
more easily kept in order, more easily
moved, more economical and inf
nitely easier to adjust to any require
ment."
He said that an Owen-Maginn ma
chine with a 36-inch cylinder and a
60-inch separator would cost $1,26O.
An engine would cost $1,70O. The
cheapest separator on the market
now costs $3.50, while the engine
costs $4,000, which makes a differ
in favor of the Butte machine
of nearly $4,000.
Mr.. Owen and DR.. Maginn propose
to organize a company to manufac-
the machine in Butte. 1--WE will
have q central location here" Mr..
Owen said, with a market north,
east and west. Butte is not a
farming region? That doesn't mat
ter. 1 have visited every large sep
arator factory of the country. 1t is
a remarkable fact that no separator
has much of a market at its factory
location. Butte is an ideal place to
manufacture u s~eparators. We be-
ieve that with our cheap and durable
economical and easily managed ma
,hine, u Butte factory will have
control of the market in a decade.
This means that a great many men
yilL be employed in separator con-
truction in Butte" /,
