SHEEP men SEE
40 CENTS LIB.
FOR WOOL CLIP
Some Are Holding for Al and
AZ Cents; Market
Strong.

The going price of wool in Mon
tana is now 40 cents a pound with a
strong, firm market. according 10 re
ports received in Great Falls. with
many sheep men holding for IL and
AZ cents and the chances that sales
will not be extensive until shearing
time.
Although a few wool buyers have
been in Great Falls and have made
brief trips into the surrounding coun-
try. there has been very little wool sold
cOrding to the buyers. Because of
the strength of the market, the buyers
believe that there will be little OF no
selling on consignment.
Smith Clip Sale Points Way
In seeing 40 cents as the going price.
wool buyers and sheep men point to
tinsdale clip, a few days ago, at 413s
cents. Last year, the Smith clip sold
at a little better than 81 cents, when
the going price was 20 cents. That
the price is showing a marked upward
tendency early in the season is shown.
according to buyers, by sales that have
always formed q basis in Montana.
which sold a short time ago at 80 cents
and held until now would probably
have been above the Accent mark.
X. J. Koshland. representative of
J. Koshland & Co.. one of the early
buyers in the northern Montana field.
said that his company anticipates a
strong. firm market and is buying ac-
cordingly. He would not say what
prices were being offered by the buy
ers, but said tina. the buyers and sell
ers were but a cent or two off in each
others prices.
More Buyers Yet to Come
Mr.. kOshland said that the strong
market was made by the actual short
age now felt by the manufacturers of
wooden products and by the situation
in tariff legislation. the delay in fixing
the permanent tariff makes probable
strong prices for several months.
The wool buyers in the city at this
time feel that the influx of buyers
will probably not start for two or three
weeks and extensive selling will be
delayed by the desire of sheep men to
get higher prices.

SAFETY WEEK"
TO EMPHASIZE
SAFE MOTORING
More Than Million and a Half
Lives Were Lost
Last Year.

With 1921 establishing a record of
more than a million and a half people
killed and injured in automobile acct
dents-more than six times the mum
Der of Americans killed and injured in
the world war-attention of Great
Falls motorists and others is drawn
this week to the national observance
of Safety Week" with the hope that
it will bring about a decrease in the
number of casualties and avOidable ac-
cidents. The week ends Saturday.
Information gathered by sponsors OF
Safety Week" emphasizes the fact
that automobile accidents last year
caused disabilities and property dam
ages amounting to more than a billion
dollars.
With 10000, 900 automobiles in every
imaginable state of mechanical fitness
on the streets and roads of America
today. directed by 10000, 600 drivers
ness and carefulness, the question of
safety in motoring has developed into
a problem which is the subject of much
study and discussion all over the
United States.
Responsibility for a good number
of a%voidable accidents is laid to those
who are constantly "jay-walking" or
crossing business streets with eyes not
fixed on approaching traffic.
Observation has brought out the fact
that you can stand on a street corner
for five minutes and see person after
person start across the street. their
heads down, walking with as much
n~onchalance as a debutante strolling
across a ballroom. /!
Automobile drivers are cautioned to
drive carefully at all times. to always
observe the hand signals. to never use
a machine with faulty brakes. to give
the pedestrian o chance at the street
crossings. and to avoid explaining it
to the judge" by obeying the law.

A warning was sent out last week
to farmers to expect weevil damage
this month, and those predicting a
bale of cotton per acre to Keep a
close watch for the next generation
of weevils that are Just now coming
out and doing damage.
Recently thorough inspection was
made of the cotton in the Memphis
trade territory, and on the farm Wis
tied there were found in many places
fresh weevil-punctured squares as
high as 40 per cent damage and as
low as 5 per cent. Many of these
squares have not yet flared and are
not usually found as what is known
as yellow flares. This condition makes
it hard Just now for the average
farmer to detect any real damage,
but within a few days these squares
will turn yellow and show up.
These articles are not intended to-
excite the farmer, but merely to call
his attention to what he may reason
ably expect and in order that he may
be induced to keep up cultivation, and
when necessary to poison, where his
cotton shows to have sufficient weevil
damage to justify the expenditure Of
money for poison and poison ma
The grower needs a big crop and
the world needs the cotton. There
fore, and effort should be put forth
to make all we can and to use every
means to combat the weevil.
The farmer should also keep an
eye on thhe cotton for boil worms
and army or leaf worms, both Of
which may be expected before gather
ing time, and in case Of the army
worm, should Immediately take steps
to prevent its spread by poisoning,
which is by far more simple method
than boil weevil treatment and is
very effective.
