LET US NOT FORGET

Ex-service men of Kngman got to- gether a firing squad Memorial Day morning and went out to Mountain View Cemetery where three volleys were fired in salute, also taps was sounded in honor of the two boys who gave all that is possible to give in this life for their country. Mem bers of the boy scout troop acted as color bearers. Flowers were placed on the graves by the American Legion.
 This is the first time in several years that there has not been some formal exercises for Memorial Day and this fact was not in keeping with other things accomplished by the peo- pie of Kingman. There is not town of its size in the state that can point to greater accomplishment in many things nor holds a people of bigger nature. It is just as proper to pay homage in patriotic speeches and songs now-homage to the dead as we'll as the boys who gave up their time and risked their lives for a cause-as it was two, three or four

TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
Wheat at Ne1u Lou for
the Season

Once-when it was selling at bare
ly half that price in the mid-nineties
dollar wheat was an iridescent
dream, says the Boston News Blu
reau. In the gay days of wartime,
when wheat touched 1925, when
corn nearly touched Sand when
land speculation was rampant-that
dollar level was scorned as a dirt
cheap figure never to return. (Just
as other inflated price figures were
regarded as permanent. Last No
vember. when western discomfort was
so loud, wheat got down to 90 cents,
but later recovered to nearly $3.50
for the May option and to $3.50 for
July. On Thursday of this week
wheat again dropped below dollar,
rallying slightly above it yesterday.
December wheat Thursday sold at
80 3-S cents and May wheat slumped
to $1.041a. Current wheat prices
mean IS to 90 cents on the farms, a
figure generally estimated to be
close to actual production costs. A
striking price contrast is furnished
by our two largest money crops, cot
ton and wheat. A year ago wheat
sold at $3.50 bushel. At the same
time cotton was worth 20. cents a
pound. against 81 ga cents today.

ANTELOPE IN PARK
ARE DISAPPEARING.
COMPLETE EXTINCTION OF REAL
LOWSTONE THREATENED
II They Are to be Saved. Extensive

Those that Stray Away from Range
at Present Are Killed by Hunters.

The American antelope, or prong
horn, as he is more accurately called.
is making a precarious stand against
extinction in Yellowstone National
park, and efforts are being launched
to save this real American animal
to the great west.
It is established that there are not
more than 5000 antelope in the Uni
ted States altogether, including about
$50 within the confines of Yellow
stone park.
One of the largest of the herds that
remain scattered through the west-a
remnant of the vast numbers that
once grazed over all the country be-
tween the Mississippi river and the
Pacific coast-has for 40 years or
more had refuge in the Yellowstone
park, but recent census OF the an
telope bands here shows that they
are barely holding their own against
adverse conditions, and it is feared
that, unless extensive and intensive
measures are taken for their preser-
walton. this distinctive, prettily color
ed representative of the once album
dant American wild life will be seen
only as stuffed and mounted speci-
men" in natural history museums.
Herds Decreasing
A careful count of the antelope
bands on their various summer ran
ges in yellowstone park showed this
summer total of $50 head. while
there were estimated to be 1000 in
the park Is years ago. Much of the
country in the valley of the Yellow
stone north OF the park. lying in the
lower attitudes, was available fol
winter range in 1905 and 1909, but
is now occupied by human settlers
resulting in many OF the animals dy-
ing off from starvation.
Last winter nearly q third of the
Yellowstone park herds were lost as
a result of heavy SHOWS and the dep
relations of coyotes, wolves and
mountain lions. Most of this loss
however, it appears from the recent
census, was made up by the birth of
new kids, but each winter presents
the risk Of antelope determination.
The possible winter range for the
Yellowstone antelope at present is a
scant 5000 acres, and this area he
must share with the deer, elk ant

FARMERS MUST PAY
ON SEED LOANS
uCLE SAM NEEDS THE MONEY.
Is MESSAGE SENT OUT TO
THOSE WHO BORROWED


Western farmers who have obtain
ed seed loans from the government
during the last year are warned to
pay up in . recently issued govern
ment circular, copy Of which has
been received by county agents Of the
state.
The circular sets forth the fact
that the government needs the
money. It is pointed out that q pro-
vision under which the loans were
made is to the effect that the farmer
must pay on the loan from the first
crop returns he receives.
An extract from the circular is as
follows:
Much Money Loaned
During the past two years, con-
gress has appropriated moneys to-
falling $3,5OO,OOO for seed loan pur-
poses in regions where special need
was indicated. These seed loans have
been placed in the states of North
Dakota and South Dakota, Montana,
Idaho and Washington. Owing to
the crop failure last year the depart
ment of agriculture did not press the
collection of the 1921 loans, but in
a great many cases extended the time
until this fall. AS a result there now
remains for collection a large num-
Der of 1921 loans as we'll as practi-
cally all of the 1922 loans.
"-is security for these seed loans,
the secretary of agriculture holds
liens which are first claim upon the
borrowers 1922 crops. The pro-
ceeds of the grain first sold by the
borrower must be used in paying his
fedora. seed loan. Both sellers and
buyers of grain which is mortgaged
to the government should not over
look their liability under these liens.
This applies with equal force to mort
gagged grain which is pooled and
shipped through the various grain
growers associations.
May Store Grain
I'm cases where borrowers are
storing their grain in local elevators
in anticipation of higher prices or
for other reasons. it is pointed out
that the department will not ask for

other grazing animals, for which
some cut forage is also provided.
The necessary provision for the
preservation Of the antelope would
be the establishment Of an extensive
winter range at lower altitude out
side the park. AT present if any OF
the antelope bands, escaping the
vigilance Of the park rangers, make
their way during winter down to the
lower country outside the park they
are listed as lost" for sooner or
later. in spite of protective laws, they
are certain to fall prey to the hun
ter's rifle or to predatory animals.
Predatory Enemies
Within the park a constant war
fare is conducted against the antel-
ope's natural enemies, but coyotes
are numerous. and bands of wolves
are not rare.
Even in the summer the antelope
leads a somewhat precarious exist
ence. While he is safer from the
predatory animals, owing to the alb
sence of deep snow and to the abund-
ance of game less fleet of foot, he
suffers from the increasing invasion
of his haunts by the summer tourists

market has been slowly sagging.
With each monthly crop report Il be-
came increasingly evident that wheat
was holding its own. Now We are
promised bounteous yield both here
and in the Canadian Northwest.
These crops are now being harvested
and the pressure of their arrival ut
primary markets in the face Of .
restricted export demand IL breaking
down prices.
What little export business there
is is being seriously interfered with
by priority orders issued In connec-
ton with the movement Of coal and
the extra effort of railroads in that
direction. This has resulted In an
almost complete lapse of wheat ship
ments to Atlantic ports for export.
If the normal flow to the seaboard
is interrupted for long it may result
in a backing up of grain at interior
terminals and tend to bring about q
further decline in prices. On the
other hand, since transportation
through Montreal is normal, a pref
erence for Canadian wheat is develop
(, ing.
The United States and Canada
each should be able to export about
| 200, 100000 bushels of wheat this
year, making 4O0.000.0O0 bushels
for export from North America. Last
year Europe took 636,0O0,OOO blu.
shells. On the same basis this will
leave 236.000.0OO bushels for Aus
tralia and Argentina to supply. The
progress of the crops in the southern
hemisphere will be an important
price factor.
The European wheat crop is poor
and is estimated at 1877 100000 bu-
shells less than last season. In Ger.
many the yield of all grains is II per
cent below that of 1921 and bread
grains are some 25 per cent under
last year. But with unsettled politi-
cal conditions and disturbed monet.
airy systems Continental buyers have
been holding off, presumably waiting
for the selling pressure from the
ample North American crops to break
prices. Europe's own crops will not

must buy, however difficult the pay

Cured at Chicago when the striking
unions and railroad heads signed
an agreement that virtually ends

It is needless to say that we are all
greatly pleased that the end of the

This was the statement made last
week by President H. B. Byram of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railroad. who, with party Of other
high officials of the line arrived in

prise to the railroad chiefs, who were
in close touch with the situation.

agreement with its employees some
time ago, but the heads of the strik-

| It will only be a matter of a short
time until the strike has been called
/ off on all roads signing the agree
ment and we will be free to resume
operations on normal basis.
"Under the terms of the pact we
will reinstate all strikers who have
not been guilty of violence during the
strike and furthermore, we will re-
tain all men who have been employed
by the roads during the strike Pc
Rod.
because OF the vast amount of
work that lies before us we will be
able to utilize the service of these
men to a good advantage.
Decision Is Welcomed
"The fact that one of the largest
crops in the history of the country
will soon be ready to move, and be-
cause of general business conditions,
which are unusually bright. We more
than welcomed the end of the strike.
Naturally. one of the first prob
