Helena, April S.-Organization of a
Montana Council of Agriculture that
can speak with authority on all mat
ters affecting agriculture, livestock,
dairying and allied farm interests has
been proposed by Chester C. Davis,
Commissioner of Agriculture, in a call
issued by him. and addressed to eigh-

Citations in the state for conference
at Helena, April 27.
While various farm and livestock
organizations have operated in Mon
tana for many years, there has never
been any organization that had au-
thority to speak for them all, and
consequently, though in normal years
range and farm interests are the DOM
inent interest in Montana, they have
never been fully articulate.
''In order that the Montana Depart
ment or Agriculture may function
with clear understanding of the
needs of agriculture" says Mr.. Davis
in his call, "and thus effectively serve
in its field, it is necessary that a
basis of real cooperation be establish
ed between this department and the
organizations representing the vari-
Gus farm interests of the state.

tions Which Will Put County
on Cash Basis.

At the meeting of the County Com
missioners just adjourned the official
minutes of which are published in the
Courier, the most important business
transacted was the passing of the
resolution authorizing the issue of re-
funding bonds, to take up outstand-
ing warrants.
This action was made imperatively
necessary by the financial condition
of the county; there being no funds
with which to pay them, county war
rants were subject to a discount
which made the transaction of county
business, embarrassing, and at times
impossible. The resolution puts the
county on cash basis again, which
tion of public business. 1t will be
noted that the resolutions expressly
recite that the intent of the transac-
money but to exchange the bonds for
outstanding warrants.
The bonds are for the required
amount, $4,000, they draw 6 per
cent interest, and are payable in year.
ly installments Of from $4,000 to ST.
600. All are redeemable at the OPP
tion of the county one year prior to
absolute maturity. They are ex-
changable, par for par, with county
warrants Of 1920 and up to February
1921.
The treasurer is authorized to car
ry out the purposes of the resolution
and the First National Bank of Glas-
gov is appointed fiscal agent of the
county, in the matter.
The resolutions also naturally pro-
vide for the levy of tax by the COM
missioners sufficient to meet the an
nual payments of installments ond the
interest.
tt is assumed that the transactions
will be completed at once so that the
county may resume the cash basis
without delaY.

STATE BANKERS
WILL MEET HERE
Group Four of State Bankers AssOcia-
alton Will Gather Here May 20th.-
Program Being Arranged.

Glasgow has been selected as the
place for the meeting of Group A, of
the Montana Bankers association, the
date being May Goth.
This group includes bankers from
the counties of Roosevelt, Sheridan,
Daniels, Phillips and Valley, compris-
Otto Ramstad, cashier of the First
National Bank of Poplar, is president
and c. B. Bull, President of the Bank
of Redstone, is secretary. C. E. Hop
pin of the Glasgow National Bank,
is member of the executive committee
of the bankers association, and will
have charge of the local arrange
ments for the entertainment of the
visitors.
Mr. Hoppin said Monday, that only
tentative program arrangements had
been made at this time, but that the
business session would be held both
morning and afternoon, and that some
prominent speaker would be present
with an address. The social features
will include a banquet. AS most of
the delegates will be leaving by even
ing trains, this will be held early, and
will probably be all that will be of
fered in the way of diversion in the
evening.
Local bankers expect to do every
thing in their power to entertain the
visitors properly, and expect and hope
for large attendance at the meet
ing.
The Montana Development assoca-
tion announces that it will present a
plan to give the farmers of Montana
an opportunity to purchase livestock
and dairy cattle on easy terms to it's
members and representative farmers
in each farming community plan
for a Breeders Mutual Loan associa-
tion.
These associations, patterned after
those which have been in successful
operation for many years in several
European countries, will provide the
farmer every facility for the purchase
and breeding of high grade livestock.
The associations will be Independent
of each other and will be financed To-
cally, chiefly by investors of regular
weekly or monthly savings and it is
highly probable that this plan will
com up for discussion at the Bank
ers' meeting.

STILL COMING
FOR SEED LOANS

County Agent Stebbins says that
applications continue to come in for
the Federal seed loans. The amount
received at his office up to Wednes-
day. approximated nearly one hun
dred thousand dollars-all of which
must be expended for seed
Valley county is fortunate in hav-
ing the proper machinery to handle
matters of this kind. The farm bu-
reau comenced to function at once in
this matter, and as near as can be
judged from information at hand, is
in advance of other counties in getting
the applications promptly accepted.
The large number of loans applied for
also speaks eloquently of the conf
dence still retained by many in the
worth and fertility of Valley county
lands, under normal conditions.
