FOUND IN OUR
EXCHANGES
StOckgrOwers' Program.

The program of work laid out for
the Montana Stockgrowers' associa-
ton for the future, to improve condi-
tions in the livestock business, is wise,
constructive and far-seeing Some of
the abuses that the stockgrowers per
cieve in related industries, and which
they hope to cure stand out in high
relief We find the association express
ing the opoinion that the producer of
beef cattle is injured in his business
by the wide spread between the cost
of the beef and the prices charged for
meat by retailers and restaurants
There is no doubt that here is con-
dition inimical to the livestock indus
try An eastern trade journalist who
was present at the association meet
ing here pointed out that the effect OF
excessive prices by retailers who pur-
vey meat to the public either over the
market counter or on the tables of
dining rooms has been to discourage
the use of meat throughout the United
States, and that is serious blow at
the livestock business The associa-
ton, in sheer self-protection for its
members, should make vigorous eff
fort to correct this condition
The association asks for a tariff
to protect hides, leather and meats;
reduction of livestock market charges
and railroad rates of excessive char
acter caused by the war or by pre-
war conditions; a pure fabrics law
to protect wOolgrowers; full value in
hay fed animals en- route to market
by railroads for the money paid out
for it; equitable valuations of stock
and land for tax purposes; economic
county government and a scale of
wages paid for public work not in ex-
cess of that paid by stockgrowers;
reasonable grazing fees in forests;
increase and improvement in national
transportation conditions by compile
tion Of the St Lawrence river ocean
canal project; abatement of proposed
switching charges at South St. Paul;
lower rates to feeding points
Unquestionably the stock b-siness in
Montana and the West may be improv-
ed if the association will strenuously
work through its organization for the
attainment of the proposed ends 1t
is planned to get a good man to de-
vote all his time as secretary of the
association to furthering its interests,
and that will be practical step that
will bring results. Since livestock
growing is one of the greatest indus
tries of the state the public will be in
hearty sympathy with the program
laid out.-Record Herald.

THE PRESIDENT AND THE
FARMERS

That President Harding appreciates
the condition of agriculture is dem
onstrated by the remarkably clear
sighted way in which he treats the
matter in his message. Excerpts from
the document on the subject are:
agriculture:
The maintained retail costs in per-
ishable foods cannot be justified.
Reduced costs of basic pro-
duction has been recorded but high
cost of living has not yet yielded in
like proportion. Without the
spirit of hostility or haste in accu-
sation of profiteering some suitable
inquiry by congress might speed the
price readjustment to normal rela-
tionship, with helpfulness to both
producer and consumer. A measur-
ing rod of fair prices will satisfy
the country and give us business
revival to end all depression and
unemployment"
The farmer should also find ground
for qualification in the way congress
has promptly taken up the presidents
suggestions. Legislation is already un-
der way to enact an emergency tariff
law, anti-dumping laws, correct the
freight situation and limitation upon
immigration. The measuring rod" is
being applied, and the farmer is amply
justified in the hops that at last his
wants, his needs, his rights, as an i'm.
portant part of the community, are
to be recognized.
The business needs of the country
are the controlling forces at Washing
ton. Many see in the situation con-
dition like that which confronted the
Mckinley administration. Then too,
free trade had Frustrated business and
depleted the treasury, but Republican
grasp of the situation, swiftly put the
nation on it's feet and launched the
people a career of years of unequalled
normal prosperity.

THE FARM LOAN SITUATION

Farm loans and credits to agricul
ture must be cared for by the farm
mortgage banks and private loan or
ganizations.
Ordinary bank loans are limited to
six months to enable farmer to nut
in a crop and market the same, what
are called liquidatable loans to turn
over the seasons work.
The federal and state farm loan
organizations are necessary but the
great bulk of the longtime farm
mortgage loans will still be carried
by bankers and financial organiza-
tlons that make that speciality.
There should be the utmost cooper

The attack on George Harvey in the
senate was a piece of dirty politics.
When we consider however that Har-
vey is a real Warwick--"a putter up
and puller down of kings, there is
nothing strange, that in very active
career of president making and un-
making, he has made some virulent
enemies. Harvey is great man, and
the buZzing of a disappointed demo-
cratic gnat about him. is only "a trivial
thing, as affecting his destiny.

ten heard druggists ask customer,
who wishes to buy cough medicine,
whether it was for a child or an
adult and if for a child, they almost

is that they know there is no danger
