At Forest Hills

New names crop up in golf at different amateur
Championships, but when the big is put through
at Forest Hills in the next days there are likely to
be no new names added to the list of winning stars.
The prospect that any has of beating both
lllden and Johnston is remote. Johnston has shown
his vunerability two three occasions this summer
but ne is nearly always at his best in champion
clash when the title is at stake.
Tiden, fine player last summer, has risen to even
greater heights this. season and will very likely be
favored by the majority to win.
Williams and Garland are both to be watched but
While Griffin, Davis Roberts and others ranking
men, they have great chance to overthrow Big and
Little Bill.

Emulating Ted Raw


Ted Ray came and won our open championship
Our amateurs have almost as hard battle upon
their hands. They will be called upon to face four of
the finest amateurs from Great Britain in Cyril Toley
the British champion; Tommy Armour, the French
champion; c. H. Wethered and Lord Charles Hope
In addition to these Canada will send down twelve or
perhaps sixteen, Of her finest golfers.
So from the international roundup there will be
close upon twenty invaders to meet.
The United States is lucky to have such stars as
Dave Heron, Francis Ouimet, Bobby Jones, Chick
Evans, Bob Gardner and many others to bank upon.
There has never been time in going history when
this country had finer of amateurs. If any out
side nation can take main trophy the reward
Will be deserved, for it will be only after beating the
best talent we have had to offer in a long time
This championship, which begins on Monday Sep
TENDER 6, will offer series of fine matches from the
first day of match play, and the gallery to be handled
now promises to be the largest ever known in America
The shafts that Ted Ray in his pape and his
driver must be made of steel. Otherwise, they would
continually be cracking under the strain

Burning pyrethrum powder in room

A good fly poison is made as fol.

Formaldehyde, four tablespoonful; /;
milk, one cupful; water, one cupful;
sugar, two tablespoonfuls. Pour the

New York Has Billion and Hall
Tax-Exempt Securities Now
Outstanding.
THEN WHY TAX FARM BONDS?
Guy Huston Shows That Proposal to
Tax Joint Stock Land Bank Bonds
Would InJure Farmer and Raise
Interest Rates on Farm
Mortgages.

New York city alone has outstand-
ing 81 ,45O, 100000 Of tax-exempt bonds,
and there is total Of $4,000, ,000, 600 Of
tax-exempt municipal bonds outstand-
ing at the present time. Hundreds Of
million Of this amount are invested in
electric light plants, water works, mu-
'nicipal docks, subways and other large
income-producing properties. Then
why deny to the farmers of America
the right to borrow few hundred mil
lion dollars on tax-exempt bonds?
This was the question raised
by Guy Huston, president Of the
American Association Of Joint
Stock Land Banks, in January at
q hearing before the senate COM
mittee on banking and currency. A
bill, known as senate bill 3109. which
would repeal the tax-exemption feature
of the farm loan act as applied to the
bonds Of joint stock land banks, was
before the committee and the argu-
ment urged by the supporters Of the
bill was that the government needed
the revenue. Mr.. Huston showed that
these farm loan bonds constituted less
than one-third of one per cent Of the

OVERALL "cRAZE"
WORKS HARDSHIP

| Billings, April 27-That overalls,
which the merchants OF Montana are
selling for from $2.95 to 1925 at the
present time will cost them $40 per
dozen at the factory to replace. and
that the overalls "craze" will only
work hardship on the working man
who has to wear them, are facts which
were learned through survey of the
situation just completed by the Mon
tana Development association head
quarters in this city.
Montana dealers are advised that
the price will go to $40, regardless of
the overall club fad, but nowhere have
retail prices been increased except
where merchants have sold out their
former stocks and have been forced to
replace them with garments at cur
rent manufacturers prices, the as
sociation asserts.
Every overall that is sold for a play
thing is now going to increase the
shortage and increase the price to
men who have to wear them. We will
be glad to supply you with overalls
for laboring men, but we cannot ac-
cept orders from any dealer who may
be so shortsighter as to aid in further
ing such a movement. Overalls are
going to $40 dozen anyway, whether
the overall club fad keeps up or not.
We expect advice to that effect hourly.
No Price Advance.
The following wire from Sweet, Orr
& Co., of Poughkeepsie, N. Y, was
received by the Montana Develop
ment association today:
"We have not advanced our prices.
April 10 we withdrew our entire line
from sale, owing to oversold produc-
tion and have accepted no orders
since them, which was previous to the
overall movemade any statement re-
garding the alment. We positively
deny that we have legged excessive
retail prices, as our dealers have ex-
tended every cooperation to hold the
cost to the consumer as low as possi- |
ble We expect to have overalls for de-
livery to our regular trade in Sept |
ember, but will not sell for that de- |
livery until later date

Certain facts connected with flies
are either misunderstood or overlook
ed. The following hints sent out by
an Illinois farm bureau should be
widely circulated. Read and remember
these:
One house-fy with it's filthy feet can
kill an entire family.
The fly is more disgraceful and dan.
gerous than a bedbug.
The house-fy is the filthiest crea-
ture in existence, yet mans constant
companion.
The house-f1y breeds in almost any
kind of decaying vegetable matter,
but prefers horse manure.
The house-fy is dangerous, not be-
cause of it's breeding place, but be-
cause of its habits of feeding
The house-fy is rightly called the
typhoid fly, because it is one of the
chief carriers of this disease.
Open, outdoor closets should not be
tolerated. Screen them as you would
your kitchen. The one is as important
as the other.
The fly is the connecting link be-
tween filth and food. Flies breed in
filth, feed on filth, and distribute filth
the -filthiest kind of filth.
You should protect your health and
that of others securing food from your
farm by doing everything possible to
exterminate the y. The only good fly
is a dead fly.
From privy vault, garbage can, a
decaying animal, consumptive's spit
toon, or any other filthy thing, flies go
direct to your dining table and wipe
their filthy feet -on your food.
The house-fiy feeds on human ex-
crement, sputum, and other possible
sources of germ infection, as we'll as
milk, vegetables, cake and other
foods in the kitchen and dining room.
No dirt, no flies. tuberculosis grows
in dirt and. filth. tuberculosis kills
more persons every year than are kill
ed by any other preventable disease.
If you give a preventable disease to
some one and that someone dies, you
are responsible. Disease prevention is
more important than fire prevention
You take precautions against fires.
Are you careful for your health?
Germs are dangerous. Be on the look
out for them. SWAT THE FLY!
To Get Rid of Flies.
To catch flies and prevent their Iay-
ing eggs, provide large traps near
breeding places and at kitchen doors;
use small traps, sticky fly paper or

Farm Mortgages Not Generally Taxed.

Farm Mortgages Not Generally Taxed.
He explained that the $2,1OO,OOO 900
Of farm mortgages carried by the in
srrance companies, savings banks,
etate banks, trust companies and COM
mercial banks escaped the income tax,
and that the income tax paid by these
institutions is tax only ON the profit
on the stock Of these corporations. He
said that the joint stock land banks
now pay an income upon the profit on
their stock the same as these other in
stftutions.
Mr.. Huston also explained that
eleemosynary institutions which carry
$4O0 200, 900 Of farm mortgages pay no
income tax.
BE said further that $1,25O,-
100000 which he classified as To-
cal loans are carried in small
units by local investors who pay
only a local income tax, II they
happen to pay any at ALL These can
not be rewritten under the provisions
Of the federal farm loan act because
they have been made on terms and
conditions which could not be accept
ed under the federal law.
Food More Important Than Revenue.
Mr.. Huston then showed that In
reality there was left only $3.50, ,OOO. 900
(out Of the original $4,000, 100000 of
loans on farm mortgages) which are
now paying an income tax but which
In the future might escape taxation
under the farm loan act as It now
stands.
Mr.. Huston said that the need Of the
nation for Increased production in
agriculture was so great that the gov
eminent, acting for the common vel
fare Of the entire nation, should per-
NIT the issuance Of farm mortgage
bonds without their being subject to

SUPPORT THE Y. M. c. A.

ODA4 the real work of raising the Y. NJ c. A.
budget for the next fiscal year began. and the way
it results will furnish fine insight into the state of the
public mind m Faimont Last year, it might as well be
admitted frankly the financial effort disappointment
At the time however it was rather easy to understand Just
what had happened The country was in the worst period
Of the dodrums which followed the end of the war Min
ing in the region at low ebb The business situation
was far from clear and many of the people who usually
support such movement literally had not yet recovered
from the sacrifices they made during the period when the
United States was actively in the war There was in
short both psychological and material let down.
Conditions very different In spite of the very
limited financial resources the Y. NJ c. A. put in one Of
the most useful years in the Of the local ASSOCIATION
The activities and the influence of the trained workers en-
Ployed in the organization expanded great amount
Of positive good be traced directly to this expansion
oday the Y. M. c. A. is bigger and more important
influence for good in the community than it ever was before
and it ought to be able to appeal with entire confidence
to the people amon for more generous support than
it ever got before.
In spite of the growing pains which have been constant
in Fairmont during the past several years. Famont has
never yet quit There record of consistent growth along
all lines which ought to- and does, thrill every loyal resi-
dent Of the city with civic pride This newspaper believes
hry that the best way in which to make tangible demon
sraton OF that pride is by supporting the Y M. C. A. to
the limit he goal set by General Secretary Cash and
the hard working board of directors may seem large but
in reality is not dollar than is needed to keep The
work gong Therefore when you approached by the
workers throw your support with entire cheerfuncss and
as generously as you possibly can.

though new wage contract has not been completed by

would be doubly unfortunate if there were to be
suspension of mining The country needs the coal
and the miners themselves would lose money without the
slightest prospect Of gaining compromising advantages
President Lewis and the other leaders OF the Mine Work
realize this clearly, and be hoped that the men
whomake public opinion in the districts and the local or
carnations, will follow their example.
All indications point TO an early and entirely
smcable adjustment Of all differences at the conference
which began at New Yor; yesterday. 1t is apparent
from the remarks made by representatives of both opera
Tors and Workers that all the bitterness and most of
the mutual Misunderstanding has disappeared during the
events which have occurred since the scale controversy
opened last October, and at there's, now genuine desire
