STRAINS SELL
CANDY MADE in
own FACTORY
Christmas Orders Swamp New
Department; Plans Made to
Expand.

Strain Brothers Saturday placed on
the market the first product of a
candy factory which hereafter will be
operated as a permanent department of
the store. At the confectionery
counters of the main store and the
cash and carry grocery, more than a
quarter of a ton of the factory's out
put was retailed Saturday.
Christmas orders for confections
have reached the factory in numbers
that have compelled the management to
decline further business during the
holiday period. The mixed and fancy
grades of candy, that form the bulk
of the holiday business, are command
ing first position at the factory, pre-
venting expansion to include varieties
that will be added when the rush is
over.
The factory is located on the top
floor of the store building, occupying
a space that has been especially par
titioned off and equipped for the ma
chihery and tables. Already it is ap-
parent that the snace at first allotted
to the department is too small and
enlargement of the room will be made
as soon as possible. The factory is in
charge of A. G. Brown, who has been
connected with the candy making bust
ness in Great Falls for several years.
1t is the intention of the store to
place the factory's output with the
trade through wholesalers as well as
by retail, it was stated ~ the store
Saturday by Russell and Arthur
Strain.

Debt Exceeds Land Value
Cook said that during the last sum
throughout the state have been pass
ing upon the loans made. He said that
he had been amazed at the situation
with regard to some of these loans.
The value of some Of the lands, due
to the dropping of values and the
mounting taxes and interest, is less
than the amount of the Indebtedness
to the state, he reported.
Sales of state lands have been dull,

Both to protect the interests Of the
state and to give a fair opportunity
to the rancher, the next legislature
must pass legislation which will permit
some change in the administration of
the state loans made from the perma-
nent school fund to ranchers and farm
ers. according to G. w. Cook Of Helena,
agent of the state land office.
The legislature should make it pos
sible, Cook said, for the state to fore
close OF the properties against which
1t has made loans and give the borrow
er a preference right to re-purchase
under some arrangement similar to the
sale of the other state lands. He sug-
gested that the payments be distributed
over a period of 10 or 20 years.
Much Interest Delinquent
The state has made loans t~otaling
about $4,000 900 from the school funds,
he said, and there now is more than
100000 in interest alone on these
loans that is delinquent. Foreclosures
have been made only in cases where
the rancher has actually deserted the
lands or shown in some other way that
he has no intention of making a real
effort to meet his obligations.
THE state has granted renewals in
all cases where the farmer has been
making a true effort to meet the inter-
est and has been paying his taxes"
Cook said. For the protection of its
interests and the interests of the tax
payers of the state, the state has been
forced to foreclose on some of the
