RATE IS NOW FINED FOR
MEDICINE LODGE COAL.

The state railroad commission has
tixed the following freight rate for
Medicine Lodge coal from Armstead
to Dillon at $1.19 per ton. TO Butte,
SITS, and to Anaconda, $2.l2lA. This
is material reduction from the old
rate, but Is not the through rate from
Medicine Lodge which Mr.. Logan is
seklng. Regular shipments in car
load lots are now being made to Butte,
Anaconda, Leadore and Dillon. The
mines are showing up to the best pos
sible advantage as development work
progresses. The quantity of coal in
sight is being rapidly increased and
the quality is improving as greater
depth is attained. These coal mines
are destined TO be one of the big in
dustries of the county. The company
now controls about $4,000 acres of
these coal lands. Surveys and esti-
mates OF the cost of branch railroad
line from Medicine Lodge station to
the mines, a distance of nine miles,
have been made, and prospects are
good that the road will be constructed
IN the spring. This would eliminate
the hauling charge and assure the sue
cessfol working of the property on
large scale.-Dillon Tribune.

Rood had two fine dogs in his work
of eXterminating the stealthy beasts,
one of the dogs falling a victim to

to be well nosed for their work of
trailing and treed most of the animals

Barley.

Barley.
Barley and beer were supposed to
be inseparabe. One could not live
without the other. Such is not true,
however. Beer has passed away and
barley still lives. The acreage plant
ed, the annual production or the price
have not materially changed. The
crop this year in the United States
amounted to l6T 900. 900 bushels. In
1920 il was Isl 10000 bushels. About
the time the country was preparing to
20 dry, and barley seemed destined to
% into the discard, the agricultural
colleges of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and
Wisconsin begun a series of tests 10
determine the fed value of barley.
These tests which have been continued
in combination for three years have
demonstrated that barley is ultra val
liable as stock feed. In feed value
the experiments have shown that an
acre in Illinois will produce 339 pounds
pounsds more actual digestible feed il
planted TO barley than if planted to
oats, and 299 more in Indiana, 256 in
Iowa and2s6 inWisconsin. A.?
At the Wisconsin agricultural col
lege an expericent conducted by j. c.
Fuller. beef cattle expert at the col
lege, on 20 head of Chicago steers re-
turns verdict for barley over corn.
Beaverhead county is preeminent-
ly barley country. It's a highly
productive and profitable crop. For
finishing up fat hogs it cannot be ex-
celled. When ground for milk cows
and poultry it is especially valuable.

Salaries and Expenses.
| While the exact figures as to the
total costs of the sheriff's office are

act that items, directly or indirectly
chargeaele to sheriff's expense, are

mated that the total cost will be an

Great Britain may follow suit.

There is no question of foregoing the
right to the Boxer indemnity, either by
Japan or Great Britain, and if the
present proposals materialize the two
governments would see that the money
is actually used by the Chinese authori-

JULY SETS TOP
RECORD INCAT
CREEK OIL RUN
Barrels Transmitted,
an Increase of $4,000 Over
Previous High Mark.

Helena, Aug. 2s.-(By The Associ-
ated Press.)-Transmission Of crude
oil through the pipe line from the Cat
Greek field to Winnett set a new high
record in July, when 199.554 barrels

OF the total transmitted in July,
172,3 $50 barrels had been bought in the
field by the Mutual Oil company and
went to refineries owned by it and al
