HAAS IS NOT WITH
INTERSTATE FIRM
Protest Against Realty Brokers'
License Dismissed by
State Auditor.

Because s. H. Haas is not associated
with the Interstate Realty. State Audi
tor G. 2. Porter Tuesday morning dis
missed the protest Of J. J. Wuerthner
against the firms application for a
state license to engage in the real
estate business. Haas was named in
the application for license as a silent
partner, but the auditor was told by J.
4. McDonough. counsel for the firm.
that he has withdrawn and is not now
interested in the company.
The hearing was held at the Park
hotel. and went no further into the
matter than to hear testimony by Mr..
Wuerthner and Mrs. Cavanaugh and
consider documentary evidence submit
ted by Haas Mr. Wuerthner charged
that Haas collected a commission from
both parties in deal in which Bos-
ton Heights house was traded for an
automobile and also collected from each
5000. This sum, it was alleged. Haas
represented as being demanded by each
party in addition to the property ex-
change.
Haas documentary evidence tended to
show that he purchased outright both
the house and the automobile. receiving
a bill of sale to the car and war
ranty deed to the house, and sold each
as his own property.

Helena, Sept. 2O.-Montana's ship.
ment of commercial apples this year
will be about $50 cars. it was announc-
ed Tuesday by F. W. Beier, Jr., federal
crop statistician for this. state. This is
about 100000 boxes. The total yield
Of apples is placed at 1,2O5,OOG boxes.
Reports indicate, he says, that "the
crop will be of high quality, the color

sol Cars Last Year.
Last year the state shipped sol cars
of yield of 1,115,0OO boxes and in
1919 the shipment was A cars from
a yield Of 1,289.O0O boxes.
Ninety per cent Of the apple crop
comes from the Bitter Root valley,
where the Mcintosh Red is the one
variety of commercial importance. Ad-
vance prices on Reds are around 50,
it was said by William L. Shovel,
state horticulturist. but not many con-
tracts have yet been made. Three
fourths of the Bitter ROOD valley pro-
duct goes direct to New York City, he
said. There the Mcintosh Red has
built up great demand.
Soon Ship 800 Cars.
In three or four years the Bitter
Root valley will be shipping at least
800 ears Of fine apples yearly from
the present paintings, Mr.. Shovel be-
lieves. Many Of the orchards set out
by the Bitter Root Valley Irrigation
company in its ambitious program of
a few years ago are just coming into
bearing. The greater portion of these
orchards are Mcintosh Reds.
Mr.. Beier's report shows that the
commercial crop of the United States
is forecast at 1S,9O0,OO0 boxes The
commercial crop in 1920 was estimated
at 3S.3OO.OOO boxes and the 1919 crop
at &c. 6.2o3.OOO boxes.

DRILL WILL POUND
ON HARLEM LEASES
BY TRANSFER DEAL
Lands Signed Up for Oil Ex-
ploratiOn Turned Over to
Denver Operator.
Special To The Tribune


Harlem, Sept. 2O-Attorney r. V.
Bottomly, president of the Harlem Oil
and Gas Co., an organization Of local
leaseholders, states that by order OF
the directors, he has turned over to
NJ. e. Smeltz, certain oil leases which
the company holds on what will be
known as the Harlem structure. in the
vicinity Of East Butte, II miles north
and west of Harlem.
These leases are turned over to Mr..
Smeltz on the condition that the first
test well is to be put down within a
half mile of a Harlem Oil and Gas Co.'S
lease, and the second well must be put
down on lease turned over by the
well will 60 down some place near the
west half Of section IL, township "a,
range %, which is owned by r. J..
Niewoehner, local agent for the Great
Northern railway.
Mr.. SmeItz is from Denver and rep
resents that he has made arrangements
with an operating company which has
passed favorably on the structure. to
put down the first well. This will be
done as quickly as possible. The name
of the drilling company or the company
which Mr.. Smeltz represents has not
been given out. Immediately after Mr..
SmellZ received the agreement OF tne
Harlem Oil and Gas Co. to turn over
this block of leases, he sent out num-
Der of messages to gather the drilling
material and derrick.
According to the contract with the
Harlem Oil and Gas Co.. the well must
be started within year but Mr.. Smeltz
states that If the weather continues
favorable the rig will be built this fall
or early next spring.
Attorney speer of Great Falls was in
Harlem recently to pass upon the
agreement with the Harlem Oil and
Gas Co.
Mr.. Smeltz made arrangements with
W. J. Hart. proprietor of the New
hotel. to lease tract of
ground along the Great Northern rail
way. on which to store material and
casing.
For the past six months geologists
and surveyors have been working this
structure and very little information
has leaked out regarding their plans.
Now it seems that they are ready to
go. and no doubt Harlem will be the
center Of attraction in the oil develop
ments from now on.
