RANCH HOME OF ]. J. HAGEN A
COMPLETE LOSS IN FIRE
WEDNESDAY.
NOTHING SAVED FROM BLAZE
Building, Contents and Valuable Pa
pers All Lost in Fire Which
Started from Overheat-
ed Range.

heated range, completely destroyed the
J. j. Hagen farm home two miles
northeast of Glasgow Wednesday af
ternoon. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Hagen
were away from the house at the time
the fire started, Mrs. Hagen being in
Glasgow attending the Chautauqua,
while Mr.. Hagen was about mile
away cutting grain. Miss Gladys
Hagen was in charge of the house and
was doing some baking in the kitchen
range. A very high wind was blowing
and it is thought the stove became
overheated, setting fire to the parti-
tion back of the stove.
The flames gained headway so rapid
ly that it was all that Miss Hagen
could do to get the two younger chill
dren who were with her out Of the
house in safety. A wallet, which con-
tained valuable papers and liberty
bonds was thrown from an upstairs
window but did not land far enough
away from the burning building to
escape destruction. Luckily the wind
was blowing away from the other
buildings on the place and the flames
did not spread to the barns and gran
|ary.
Mr.. Hagen estimates that his loss
will be in the neighborhood of $4,000
partially covered by insurance. I'm.
mediately upon learning of the mis-.
fortune that had befallen the Hager
family their many friends in Glasgow
made up large package Of clothing
and foodstuffs and sent it out to the
ranch to help out in taking care OF
the immediate wants of the family.

FAIRGROUNDS FIRE WILL
NOT HINDER PROGRAM

The fire at the state fair grounds at
Helena recently will not interfere with
the success of the fair this fall, ac-
cording to Chester C. Davis, commits
sioner of agriculture and publicity.
The space formerly occupied by the
exhibition building will be cleared of
rubbish and used for midway. The
exhibitions that do not need the pro-
lection of buildings will be housed in
tents, Mr.. Davis said.
The general condition of crops thru
out the state indicates that there will
be plenty of farm produce at the fair.
A large attendance is expected.

SUFFICIENT HARVEST HANDS
ARE BEING MADE AVAILABLE

The labor situation is being lined up
and reports would indicate that sew
eral thousand men are moving toward
Montana. The U. S. department of
labor and the state labor offices are
now in operation and men are being
received from these sources. "Thous-
ands of men are available and are be-
ing moved west into the Dakotas and
Montana" writes the U. S. labor office
at Aberdeen, S. Oak. Mr.. Tucker, who
is in charge of the office, writes that
farmers should not get excited, that
plenty of men are available and are
being moved as fast as possible.
Farmers are requested to leave their
orders for men and a means of trans
portation at one of the following
places most convenient: M. Eliason,
Oswego; M. A. Lien, Frazer; either
bank at Nashua; either bank at Hins-
dale; either bank at Opheim; either
bank at Glentana; DR.. Miller at Bay
lor. These different places will pool
their orders once day and telephone
them to the county agents office at
Glasgow where they will be assembled
and men sent out as soon as available.
The office will be in daily touch with
The U. S. Labor office and the state
labor office and will get the men as
fast as available.
John Tattan, U. S. mail carrier for
the north country, is making a very
reasonable rate for transportation, as
are also the trucks, and farmers should
make arrangements to get the men
out when they place their calls. 1t is
better to get the men a few days
ahead of time as it is not always pos
sible to get all the men that billed
sible to get all the men that are cal
led for the same day the call is put
in.
Remember, men are coming and dc
not get excited and raise their wages
they are too high now.

the past few days rounding up parties
who have young geese in their pos

a practice that should be discouraged.

COURIER ADS PAY

A short time ago Mr.. S. S. Leonard
of the U. S. Reclamation Service lost

road near Liberty. An ad was inser-

that appeared balky and stopped to
pull the post from the ground. When
he put his hand down in a hurry he
put it into big rattler curled right
at the post. Without stopping to think
what he was doing he clutched the
snake in his hand and swung it like a
rope against the post again and again.
This stunned the snake, but most Pc
culiar sensation was felt up Mr.. Lu-
raas' arm, whether from fear or the
clammy coldness of the snake, but it
was not until the next day that his
arm felt normal.

CHAUTAUQUA PROGRAM
EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD
All Numbers Please, With Play "Turn
To the Right" Best On List. Ja-
niOr Chautauqua Tonight

The series of Chautauqua programs
presented in Glasgow, each year, are
looked forward to with the keenest
anticipation because they are not on
ly a source of entertainment but are
highly educational as we'll and also SER
We to promote the community get to-
gether" spirit which is of value es-
pecially in the smaller cities.
It seems to be the general consen-
sus of opinion that the programs which
have been given so far this year are
the best ever and it is gratifying to
know that the attendance has been
such that up to the time of going to
press there is only small deficit with
every prospect of this being met af-
ter the programs of today, which pro-
mise to be very fine, are given.
The drama seems to be the most at
tractive form of entertainment to an
average audience and it was not sur
prising that a capacity house greeted
the presentation of "Turn to the
Right" given by the Keighly players
of New York. 1t was a privilege for
a Glasgow audience to have this play
as we'll given as it is by the Stock
Companies playing in the theatres of
the larger cities.
The manager adds much to the sue
cess of chautauqua and Glasgow has
so much enjoyed Mrs Reed, who has
been here during the week in that cap
acity. She possesses an unusual per-
sonal magnetism and kindly spirit and
has taken every occasion to express
her appreciation of the splendid COOP
GRAFTON of the women of Glasbow in
their floral contributions for stage de-
coration and general spirit of helpful
ness.
The superintendent of the junior
chautauqua is also very pleasing and
delightful pageant given by the child.

Planting Potatoes in Vermont.

About six weeks from squirrel cup,
Along IN May, when things warm up,
Ii s time to plant your Early Rose,
Or any murphy, most, that grows;
The sIdehiil patch you We harrered twice
Is free at last from stumps and ice;
Your old.land plow, with wooden snout,
Awaits the word to furrer out.
Then next you wonder if you re freed
This year, as you was last, for seed;
Oh no; your stock is lasting well,
You II have half peck TO sell;
You lug two bushel up the stars,
And get two applekniyes and chairs,
And call to Line, your oldest lad,
10 come and 'nancipate his dad.
:. You re old enough to start to think
OF helping some, you say TO Line;
" Here, take this knife and jest incise
These Burgers right between the eyes,
But leave each piece an eyeball so
The thing can see to sprout and grow,
And III slip into town and range
To get that phosphate off the Grange
You find your stuff and make load,
And start towards home the lower road,
But mother asks, as YOU get back,
Are YOU a white man, George, or
black?'
Don t know YOU say. s'but | X L
Can boost as hard as it can smell;
You won t regret along next Fall
This Thursday 5 doings, not at all.
You re strong next morning on your
crop
Your basket boot heel, phosphate, lana,
And boy and seed. are all on hand;
Once every yard YOU stump your heel
And make dent the earth can feel,
And jst beside each hole you lay
= piece of seed and walk away.
Then Line. with phosphate pail and
spoon,
Runs wild and folders pretty soon,
And. where your heel has made stab,
He spills about half a dab;
The gray stuff lays there in its cup
OF earth, prepared to blow things up
And when YOU we doctored several rows
You guess it s time to try the hoes.
Then . Ter each fertilizer spill
You poke some dirt, about gill,
Which done, thereon your weight you
Bv stepping on your rightfoot toe:
BE sure to always lift your left.
So that the hole can get your heft;
This makes a hill-base firm indeed
For Mr.. Tubrous- rooted Seed.

You lay Old Seedy 5 cut-Up face;

From where you dropped him, with your

| Then eight big hoes of earth YOU haul
And wall him up for good and all
And last, right square above the hull,
You stamp your hoe with downright
will.

That 5 how to get a ten-ton yield;
There ain t no other way to do

Deficit or Surplus?

The financial statement of the state
auditor, which appears elsewhere in this
issue, is rather surprising, in view of
the fact that both publicly and pri-
vatel. Mr.. Gates has claimed that there
woulu be deficit, not only at the end
of the next fiscal year, but probably at
the end Of this year
1t is of course rood news that there
is no deficit now, that there are over a
million dollars in the treasury and over
one hundred and siNty-two thousand
dollars more than will bc needed for cur
rent appropriations.

surplus it Is good news if its so" and

tainlv hope it SO turns out. There is
Just one question about it:
If Auditor Gates was mistaken about
the deficit at the end of the fiscal year
of 1922, might he not be. mistaken about
the surplus at the end of the 1928
periodE
