official bulletin issued by the United
States geological survey. Showing the
remarkable development of Montana
oil fields the bulletin carries the fig
ures for July, 1920. In that month
Montana's oil wells produced 5000
barrels or at the rate of 25S barrels
a day.
No state shows a more rapid rate
of development. Still Montana's pro-
duction is almost insignificant com
pared with that of other western oil
states. California, for instance, pro.
duced 1O,247, 900 barrels of oil in July;
Oklahoma, 1O,1SO,OOO barrels; Texas,
8,08O,OOO barrels; Kansas, 3,118,O0O

Stability of The Sugar Beet

The stability Of the sugar beet as
a safe and profitable farm product is
emphasized by the present unfortun-
ate condition Of American agriculture.
While other products Of the soil have
shrunken in value, beet growers, un-
der their contracts with the sugar
companies and factories. have continu-
ed to receive the war price of S12 a
ton for their beets.
The war price of sl2 ton paid the
sugar beet growers this year, amid
the shrinkage in corn, wheat, cotton,
barley, oats, potatoes and other pro-
ducts, stands out as prominent fea-
ture, the beet growers making good
money while farmers raising other
crops have suffered heavy losses. The
sugar beet industry has proven bene-
factor to the farmer, adding many
millions of dollars in return for culti-
vation. 1t is one Of the best. if not
the very best crop to which the farm
er may put wise use Of his lands.

The Nonpartisan Invasion

Under the caption. "Townleyism us

Tribune offers some advice to Kansas
and other states where the league is
seeking new hold. The Tribune says:
"An infectious or contagious disease
can only be conquered by active count
eracting restoratives, and in such cases
the truth of the old saying is again
verified, that an ounce Of prevention
is worth pound of cure. The blood
of the patient must be kept pure. The
same rule applies to the cure and pre-
vention of diseased views of govern
ment The only cure is educational
activity by which the poisonous effect
of perverted doctrines may be over
come by establishing healthful and

LAMAR BUILDING AND
LOAN ASSOCIATION
Annual Meeting and Report Shows
Continued Growth of the Big
Financial Institution.

The annual meeting of the Lamar
Building and Loan Association held
last week revealed a continued in
crease of interest on the part of the
stockholders in this most prosperous
Lamar institution. The business of
the association has grown until the
total assets are now over the two
hundred thousand mark and it is iri-
creasing by leaps and bounds each
year. The report of the secretary, l..
II. Myers, as read to the meeting
shows highly prosperous state of af-
fairs and the association continues to
pay semi-annual dividends of six per
cent compound interest. The stock
holders were well pleased with the
showing and decided to continue the
same management. They therefore
re collected the old board of directors
with DIR. C. T. Knuckey to fill the one
vacancy that existed. The board now
consists of C. C. Huddleston, W. j.
Johnston, Cora X. Strain, F. H. Kel-
sey. Frank Wheeler, DIR. c. T. Knuck-
ey and I. H. Myers.
The report of the business for the
past six months is as follows:

One hundred and five Russian work
ingmen were killed and hundreds in
jured because they refused to work
sixteen hours day on the scanty food
allowances made them. Soviet SOL
diers shot them down.
A system Of government that tries
to abolish brains and management ond

The Soviet government is showing
that labor is the worst sufferer from
lack of efficient management. The
slaughter of Russian laborers. desper-
ate because of hunger and their merci-
less new serfdom. should be a lesson
to labor with radical tendencies every

Income Tax Facts You Should Know

Births, deaths, and marriages dur
ing the year 1920 affect materially in
come tax returns for that year.
Millions of babies were added to
family circles, each of whom brings an
exemption of 5000 in the parents in
come tax return.
Widows and widowers who lost their
husbands or wives during the year are
especially affected. They are single
for the purposes of the income tax
law and are granted only an exemp-
tion of $1,000. unless the head of a
family.
Persons who were divorced or sepa-
rated by mutual agreement during the
year also must consider themselves as
single persons.
The status of the taxpayer on De-
eember 81, 1920, determines the
amount OF the exemptions II on that
day the taxpayer was married and
living with wife or husband, claim
may be made for the $4,000 exemption.
II single, or married and not living
with wife or husband on December 81.
the exemption is only $1,000.
Persons who reached majority dur
ing the year and whose earnings for
that period amounted to $1,000 or
more. or $4,000 or more, according to
their martial status. must file return
and pay u tax on their net income in
excess of those amounts.
To avoid penalty, the return must
be in the hands of the Collector of
Internal Revenue for the district in
which the taxpayer lives, or has his
principal p'ece of business, on or be
fore midnight of March 10, 1921.
