Grain Handling Charges Are Reduced
By Order Of Commissioner Davis
Findings of Commissioner Result of Hearing Question Held
October First, Means Saving of Many Thousand
Dollars to Farmers

at the hearing showed that only one
to two per cent of the grain passing
through their houses was subject to
the handling charge.
"The chief determining factor is
fixing the rate" states the de cision,
"is the fact that grain from the states
selling on the same terminals as
Montana has paid and is paying a two
cent handling charge whereas Mon
tana for the year just past has al
lowed handling charge of four cents
Taking grain for storage is merely
incidental to the main business of
buying and selling grain, the decision
points out; and that it is to the ad-
vantage of elevators to accept grain
on storage at nominal rate is shown
by the fact that from 95 to 90 per
cent of it in Montana in the past has
eventually been sold to the storing
company.
Commissioner Davis observes that
If the income from handling grain
alone were expected to bear all the
operating expense, the four cent rate
could not be held unreasonable. He

AT ROTARIAN MEET
Grain Marketing in It's Relations to
The Welfare Of the Farmer
is Discussed

The Rotary Club MONDAY meeting
was attended by nearly every member
on Tuesday, there being but a few
absent ones, these having been called
out Of town on matters Of business.
Charles e, Fisher was chairman.
Cliff Waite reported upon the mat
ter Of the Boys work in connection
with the Y. NJ. C. A. The club had
been invited TO join with that organi-
zatiOn in movement to interest and
secure a larger membership among
the boys of the city. 1t is requested
of the Rotary that they have COM
mittee at the Y. NJ. G. A. to join with
other committeeman who will mingle
with the boys and play on the gym
floor with them. By this method it
IS hoped to learn the reasons for the
boys not belonging to the Y and a
large number are expected to Join.
A very fine letter was read which
came from the faculty of the Boze-
man schools. This was in appreci-
alton Of the picnic given them by the
Rotary club a week ago. There was
also letter from the Pueblo Rotary
club notifying the local organization
of the formation of a home building
association for the purpose of aiding
in the building of homes for those
who suffered in the great flood. The
Pueblo club will operate the associ-
alton without profit and through this
medium hopes to see many of the
families receive the aid needed to
again have a place to live.
The letter stated there were at
+ least 1000 persons made homeless
by the flood, who were in no position
to build for themselves. and there
were no houses into which they can
move. So many are destitute who are
deserving of aid, it was concluded the
o best way to help was to form the

BEATEN BY
SECOND TEAM OF HIGH

By a score of 26 to ID the second
team of the Gallatin High defeated
the Belgrade school team last Sat
urday. The game was played at Bel
grade and was witnessed by very
large attendance.
The first touchdown was made by
Gallatin and repeated within five
minutes, and both goals were kicked
giving them IA points within fifteen
minutes after the game started. Bel
grade scored as. a result of Gallatin
loosing the ball on fumbles close to
their line making two touchdowns
with clean kicked goals for total
of IA points.
The style of game played by Bel
grade demonstrated football has not
been one of the sports receiving at
tention there for some time. Many of
the plays were made in formations
eliminated from the rule book long
ago. They have the material for a
mighty strong team and with more
experience will be a hard bunch to
tackle.
Gallatin used some real modern
shifts in her playing and showed gooC
training. This is the first year there
has been enough material at the higl
for a second team with enough mer
to give it good form. The team viii
no doubt cover itself with glory dur
ing the season.

The Harvest festival held by the
Methodist church last Friday was a
most pleasing success and there were
many contributions received for the
benefit of the Deaconess hospital.
Fully 200 people partook of the din

FALSE ALARMS.

So many false alarms have
been turned in, causing the
fire department to make use
less runs, that a reward of
$25 has been offered for the
arrest and Conviction of those
who are guilty of this misde-
meanOr. The suspicion has
been aroused that the work of
pulling alarms is not that of
small children, but of some
one old enough to know bet
ter.
The danger of run by the
fire department is great, not
only to the members of the
department, but to those who
are. on the street at the time,
and it seems this point ought
to prevent anyone call ,ng
the department without cause.
