TRAVELLING MEN
TAKE HAND in
ROAD BUILDING
Will Meet With Commercial
Club Members to Boost
Highways.

There are several hundred CONNER
cial travellers who go out of Great
Falls each Monday morning for the
sale of merchandise. Many of them
belong to the United Commercial
Traveller association. They have be-
come much interested in the building
of good roads throughout this section
of the country and it has been decided
by the organization TO give some spe-
cific and continuous support to those
who are e~ndeavoring TO reasonably
develop the highways of this section
of Montana.
On Saturday evening, October Z. at
$50, the United Commercial Travellers
will hold a meeting in Odd Fellows
hall following their regular business
meeting which convenes at 1880. There
will be some members of the good
roads committee of the Commercial
club present and a general discussion
will be held as to what can be done in
a reasonable way for the road devel-
opment of this trading region during
the year 1923. o. s. Warden and
Scott Leavitt and perhaps others who
are interested in the good roads move
ment will speak II they are able to be
present. All statesmen who travel out
of Great Falls by automobile are in
vited to be present at this meeting
whether they are members of the
United Commercial Travellers or not.
A. G. Rufus is the chief executive
officer of the Commercial Travellers
organization and G. f. Saylor is the
secretary. X. y. Gaines, one of the
pioneer members, is urging a good at
tendance for Saturday evening.

'TWO-THIRDS OF SHEEP IN ninth
DISTRICT OWNED in MONTANA
State Holds Less Than One-fifth of Cattle in
Territory, One-seventh of Horses and
One-thirtieth Of Swine.

Montana leads the states OF the
ninth federal reserve district in the
number OF sheep, two-thirds of the
total being ranged here, according to
figures compiled at the district head
quarters at Minneapolis and announced
in the report for August of the agent.
John II. Rich, which has Just been
made public.
OF the livestock situation, the report
says:
There have been important changes
during recent years in the holdings of
livestock. and frequent inquiry has
been made as to the trend or tendency
for each kind of live stock during the
last two years. Prospective financing
needs and market conditions depend
upon these changes to a considerable
extent. The recent heavy marketing of
hogs and cattle and the large move
ment of feeders stock to the country
can be better interpreted with a back
ground based on the facts as to hold
ings. 1t is also of interest to know
how well the live stock industry has
withstood the severe winters of 1919
and 1920, and the depression in prices
which commenced in 1920.
Census Shows Increase
Between 1910 and 1920. according
to census figures, corrected for vari-

Simple Way to Get
Rid of Blackheads

There is one simple, safe and sure way
that never fails TO get rid of black
heads. that Is TO dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calonite
powder from any drug st~ore-sprinkle
a little on a hot, wet sponge-rub over
the blackheads briskly-wash the parts
and you will be surprised how the
blackheads have disappeared. Big
blackheads, little blackheads, no matter
where they are, simply dissolve and
disappear, leaving the parts without
any mark whatever. Blackheads are
simply a mixture of dust and dirt and
secretions from the body hat form In
the pores of the skin. Pinching and
squeezing only cause Irritation, make
large pores and do not get them out
after they become hard. The c~alonite
powder and the water simply dissolve
the blackheadSrso they wash right out
leaving the pores free and clean and in
their natural condition. Anyone trou-
bled with these unsightly~ blemishes
should certainly try this simple method.

OF swine, an increase of t~wo-thirds in
cattle, an increase of one-third in
horses, and a pronounced decrease in
sheep. -
During the following two vears.

pared in this office, there has been mn
increase of one-fifth in holdings Of

other important classes of live stock
amounting to two per cent for cattle
~ per cent for sheep and Is per cent
The holdings of live stock vary ma
terlaily between these four states.
Montana mas almost twO-tbirds of the
sheep IN the district, but contrary TO
tne current opinion, it holds less than
one-fifth of the cattle. less than onnl
seventh of the horses. and only about
one,thirtieth of the swine. Minnesota
is the largest holder of cattle, swine
and horses. although South Dakota
pToouces a large number of each of
tnese three classes. North Dakota has
tne smallest number Of cattle and
sheep, and Montana holds the least
NUMBER OF horses and swine.
Relative Density
The contrast between these statos

Two Suspects Held on Charge
of Making and Selling

On information furnished BY a mar
who said the defendants had sold him
a bottle of moonshine that later proved
to be almost pure wood alcohol, Dep
uty Sheriff Fred Huotari Tuesday aft
ernoon arrested John Major, 20, and
Peter Papushzoak, %, on charges of
manufacturing and selling intoxicating
liquors. The men were held without
bail and formal charges will be pre-
ferred against them in court today.
Say Admissions Made
Soon after the two men had been
taken into custody, Deputy Sheriff
Huotari searched the Papushzoak home
at 912 Third avenue southwest where,
according to the officer. a 10-gallon
still, a quantity of mash and liquor
was found and seized. When ques-
toned at the county Jail the men are
said to have admitted ownership Of
the still and also that they had been
violating the prohibition law.
