Seed Loans for Farmers

Montana farmers desiring to OBJ
tain federal seed loans will make ap-
plication to the county agent of their
region, according to messages receiv-
ed in Helena from Congressman Carl
w. Riddick. Blanks will be sent to
the county agents before March Is,
Riddick said. Application must be
filed before May /.
Applications must be approved by
the local federal farm bureau com
mittee or other committee of farm
ers. The county agent will forward
the applications to G.. w. Warburton,
who will open an agricultural de-
partment office at once in Fargo.
An appropriation of 100000
for seed loans to farmers was au-
thorized in the last agricultural ap-
preparation bill and the money made
available for immediate distribution
by an emergency clause. This was
done in order that the crops may be
planted early this spring.
Two dollars per acre is the maxi
mum provided in the bill. The re-
lief is restricted to those who suf-
fered losses because of drought.

ASSESS STOCK TOO
HIGH, SAY GROWERS
STATE COMMITTEE RECONMEN-
DATIONS DOUBLE MARKET
PRICE IN SOME CASES
County Assessor of Beayerhead Gives
Figures to Prove His Contention
That Animals Are Oyeryalued for
Assessment Purposes; Takes Good
Steer to Bring $75 Today.

Many Montana stockmen are pro
testing against the valuations placed
on livestock for assessment purposes
by the state committee of county as
SCISSORS, declaring that the valuations
announced by that committee are
far greater than the actual market
value of the livestock. Stockgrow-
ers of Beaverhead county have sup
port in their contention from County
Assessor Boss w. limerick, who says:
"If Beaverhead stockmen could
dispose of their stock at prices rang
ing anywhere near the values placed
by the state committee, there would
be a general feeling of relief regard
ing financial conditions here and the
outlook for stockmen and ranchers
would be 100 per cent brighter than
it is now" said limerick.
Stockmen who have been consult
ed likewise voice objections to being
assessed at valuations far greater
than they could realize from sales of
livestock. Some of the biggest stock-
men of the county are among those
who have voiced these opinions.
For instance" said Mr.. limerick,
f'beef steers are valued at SIS on the
assessment schedule, while as a mat
ter of fact it is almost impossible to
realize more than $50 on the market.
Beaverhead county stockmen who
own about 1859 beef steers, would
be paying taxes on a valuation of
while the market value
would be about $81,950, or they
would pay taxes on $4O,975 more
than their steers are worth. With {
present market quotations it would
take an exceptional steer to bring {
SIS after being shipped to the mar {

Many stockmen are of the opinion
hat the state board of equalization
arrange a new schedule COM e

TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
FEE FOR STOCK INSPECTION
RESTORED BY MONTANA BOARD

After having made free inspection!

ments, for the past Is months, the
state livestock sanitary board Apri,
1, will resume the imposition of in.
spection fees.
"These inspections are not requir-
ed by the livestock sanitary board OF
Montana" said DR.. w. j. Butler,
state veterinarian, "but they are re-
quired of cattle by the United States
government and of other stock by
various states to which the stock is
destined. During the drought situa
ton in Montana, the state livestock
sanitary board deemed it necessary,
for the protection of the stock indus
try of Montana and livestock owners,
that these inspections be made free
of charge. In the beginning absol-
utely no fee of any kind was asked.
This favor was abused in some in
stances and the order was modified
to provide that only the actual x
penses of the inspecting officer be
paid. During the past Is months
any shipper who was a legitimate
taxpayer in this state and made a
statement that the payment of fees
would embarrass him financially had
his stock inspected free of charge. 1t
cost the board about $4,000 to do
this work.
Emergency Has Passed
we consider the emergency that
led the board to take this step has
now passed." said DR.. Butler, land
furthermore, the appropriation of
the department is no larger than it
has been in the past while the work
imposed upon the department has
increased. We have all the
laboratory work and the dairy in

additional work required. No addi-
,ional money has been allowed for

circumstances the livestock sanitary

IN MONTANA CASE
western Growers in Flathead and
Oth Counties Have Six Hundred

Montana potato growers have one
more hill to climb.
Through the Montana railroad
commission efforts were made to Sc
cure a special rate from western
Montana warehouses. where more
than 0 cars of potatoes are held in
storage, to Missouri river points with
a view OF marketing them in the next
few weeks.
The interstate commerce commits
sion replied to the state commission
and upheld the contention of the
three transcontinental railroads OBJ
Grating in this state, against granting
a lower rate from western Montana
points. The state commission first
applied to the railroads for relief and
upon being refused applied to the in
terstate commerce commission.
In replying to the state commission
the interstate commerce commission
quoted Vice President Woodwork of
the Northern Pacific. He said that
in Minnesota and North Dakota there
are now between $500 and 1890
cars OF potatoes in storage according
information furnished by the Nor
thern Potato Growers association.
He said the United States bureau of
markets also showed that the years
of potatoes, in all producing
sections, was large and of good quail
Ity and under such conditions it is
impossible to establish and maintain
any considerable movement from
points o than 1000 miles distant

here are ample supplies at nearer
POINTS and if shipments are forced
rom distant locations it will only
lave the effect of reducing the price.

steel trap on its left forefoot, the
carcass weighed 95 pounds after il
was brought to Dillon. Hunters pro-
nounce it one of the largest and
handsomest specimens ever killed in
this part of the state.
Known for 18 Years
The animal, which has been known
by stockmen here for IS years, had
grown almost pure white and there
is not a single blemish on the pelt.
The animal was said to have devel-
oped an uncanny wariness and cum
ming, which combined with its inor-
dinate boldness, has enabled it to
perpetrate daring depredations in
farm yards and to elude the subse-
quent hunts. A review of the events
in the life of the animal as related
by stockmen and trappers who have
hunted it for years, is a thrilling
story of a survival against apparent
ly overwhelming odds. Last year the
big VOLTS mate, also snow white.
was killed by a trapper not many
miles from where Gray killed this
one. Though of unusual proportions
her size was not to be compared with
his. For years they had hunted to-
gether over a territory comprising !
hundred square miles. Both
were reputed to be almost Incredibly
fleet and equally cunning. When
killed sheep they did not drag
carcass away, but carried it with
fangs. 7
A month ago Gray, who has known
he animal for a long time, and who
vas as familiar as anyone with it's
habits, began to trap for it. Taking
very precaution, he set three traps
n a good place, batting them with
he hind quarter of a horse. Two
lays passed and he went back to his
raps. The carcass was gone and the
raps were inspiring, while the tell
ale tracks of a wolf 5 " inches wide /,

Playing Life's Game.

The game of life is not unlike the
struggle on the football gridiron. 1t
has all types of players. Some play
for the mere fun of muscular strug-
gle, others play for the joy of win
ming. Some play because others
play. Some play because they have
no other demand upon their time.
Still others feel that theig very JOY in
living is bound up in the right to ex-
ercise and the enthusiasm of contests
with their fellows. But be that as IL
may, we are all playing the game of
life. Too many are playing 10 the
grandstand and never become players
of ability. Others just toy with ,he
game and try to remain in the COM
pany that offers attractions for them.
With the winners it's different. They
put everything possible into the game.
They make plays count and life re-
wards their zeal with gain.
