Montana Loses
S1,5OO,OOO Year

Reams of paper and miles of argu-
ment have been exhausted by the edi-
torial writer's of Montana in combat
ting the inroads of mail-order buying
at the expense of home merchants.
During the war and the reign of IN
flated prices since this evil remedied
itself, but the approach to normal con-
ditions has ressurrected the catalogue
business until it is beginning to as
sumo it pre-war proportion again.
Bankers who Keep IN close touch
with economic conditions, say that
more=than 1900; eco are sent out Of
the state annually for purchase of
merchandise from mail order houses
and that of this amount no part is ever
returned, directly Of Indirectly.
If spent with Montana merchants,
they figure that no less than $780,
900 would have remained at home and
would have been available for use in
farming commerce. and industry, fer
that is approximately the part of the
$7,000,00 that would have oeen spent
at home for labor and other outlay IN
cident to merchandising and would
have remained in circulation in tie
state. ne banker is quoted as say
ing:
Money sent out Of the state for
purchase of mail order merchandise is
withdrawn from the channels of trade
of the state and-no part of it is avail
able for the development of Montana.
Therefore. it does not find its way into
the banks, upon which ~exceedinfy
heavy demands are made to further
Montana ard TO keep
those industries already established
in operation."

We are entirely confident that a way
win be found to eliminate the pest, but
as yet il cannot be accurately said that
our work has passed the experimental
stage. In cases where one fieled has
been destroyed while another field just
over the fence was untouched has of
fered IN excellent opportunity to make
Investigations. This has occurred re-
peatedly this summer and in every
case we have followed the history of
the fields back several years. The fact
is that the ravages of the pest must
be stopped and we are confident it will
be, although the exact methods are
still to be discovered"
Mr.. Cooley believes that many cut
worm millers can be destroyed by
traps, but Investigations made at the
state college have shown that the
lighted trap is not so proficient as the
baited trap, according 70 Mr.. Cooley.
Fermented molasses will catch so
times as many millers as the lighted
trap, he stated, for the reason that il
operates continuously, while daylight
and moonlight destroys the value of
a light.
Possibility that the pest can be con-
trolled by cultivation methods has also
been learned, but the question whether
these methods can be reconciled with
the best agricultural practices has
been raised. Land uneultivated be-
tween July Is and September Is forms
a crust, upon which the miller viii not
deposit eggs, but it is difficult for the
average farmer to lay his land by dur
ing this period. Spring blowing sub
merges the eggs of the young worm
so deeply that it is not liable to do
damage during the remainder of the
season, but to follow this method
would eliminate summer following the
affected areas.
