Bozeman. June 29.-An effort is be-
ing made to get the county fairs and
the state fair of Montana back upon
a basis where they can be made a
success. The Montana Fairs league
has been organized for this purpose
and. as the first move. it, is preparing
to have submitted to the voters of the
state a pari-mutuel bill that will help
make the horse racing feature a finan-
cial success. In its appeal to help put
through this bill. the league says:
Help us put state and county fairs
back on the map: better prices for live
stock: provide a place for the farmer
to display his produce.
Our purpose is to aid the county
and state fairs financially by the in
itiation Of this law to permit pari-mu-
tuel machines at fairs only.
"Practically all the county fairs in
Montana have been suspended. due to
lack of gate receipts since racing has
been discontinued. It was even recon-
mended that the state fair be suspended
for the same reason.
Remove the burden from the tax
ipayers and make the fairs self-support-
ing BIZ the passage of this act.
'sThe fair is the only place where
farmers can exhibit their products. 1t
also affords the necessary encourage
ment to the breeders of blooded horses,
cattle. swine, sheep. etc. The market
of the high grade livestock is only at
the fair. Help keep it alive"
In order to get the proposition or
the ballot. Gallatin county is asked to
furnish COS names of registered voters
signed to the petition.

Minneapolis, June 29.-The employ
ment situation now is very favorable
so far as laboring men are concerned,
according to a report made by John
H. Rich, of Minneapolis, Ninth district
federal reserve agent.
Every man who wants work can find
it now, the report says. There Is a
shortage of skilled laborers, especially
in the building trades in some places
and a temporary shortage of experienc-
ed farm help, tits reported.
The copper mining regions are ex-
p~eriencing a scarcity of skilled miners,
which is delaying the r%e-opening of sew.
eral mines shut down during the last
year, Mr.. Rich stated.
A total of 6,4a7 federal seed loans
had been made in Montana this year to
June 10, by the department of asrl-
culture, amounting to $755 $500, ac-
cording to a report of Mr.. Rich. The
loans are scattered throughout A
counties. The largest loan total for one
county was in Hill county, where it ag-
creeated $127.S27. Missoula county is
low with but one loan, that being
for S75.

$500 Acres Pledged
for Summer Tillage
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Chinook. June ga total of 5.53S
acres of land has been pledged among
the members Of the summer tillage clubs
for summer tillage this year, according
to an announcement by w. A. Gesell,
secretary of the organization. who has
issued the following statement:
blaine county now has 223 mem
bers in summer tillage clubs with a
total of S.66S acres pledged. In addi-
ton to this, President r. ". Baird OF
the Harlem club states that he believes
that nearly 5000 acres arc being sum
mer titled by farmers not belonging to
the clubs. NY estimate of summer
titled land in the vicinity of Chinook is
that it will nearly reach the 1000
mark as there are at least four com
munities that were not touched by the
sumner fallow drive during the latter
part of May. Now that the drive is
over and pledges are made. we should
see TO it that we do our very best and
give it a fair test. We all know that
summer fallow is all right if we work
it right but if we sumner fallow and
permit the weeds to grow we might as
well lie down and do nothing. AS the
weeds are sure to absorb the moisture
more than a crop of grain. Let US
make it our aim to keep the weeds off
from our summer titled fields

CECRETARY OF WAR WEEKS
~ continues to make "indiscreet"
speeches for a cabinet officer. He
is also a member Of the national
republican committee and some of
his colleagues are getting a little
uneasy about his utterances on the
Volstead act, and predictions of re-
publican party disaster because of
it. Evidently this man Weeks is
in a reckless mood of truth telling
and doesn't care where he hits. 1t
is refreshing anyway. It seems that
his utterances have created quite
a storm in his home state, and
some trouble for republican can
didates now seeking nominations.
The Springfield Republican is
moved to say:
Senator Capper's opinion that
the president should ask for Sec
rotary Weeks resignation does not
seem to be justified on any party
grounds whatever. The president
might as we'll be asked to resign.
Mr.. Harding is on record against
the primary system no less than
Mr.. Weeks. AS for prohibition,
however dry this administration
may be on land, it is c~onfessedly
wet on the deck of every shipping
board vessel beyond the three-mlle
limit. While Secretary Weeks re-
cent 'indiscretions' may be classed
as mine own,' no one could pos
sibly see in his views much diverg,
ence from the views of his chief.
ut is demonstrate that nothing
Mr.. Weeks has said would jar MI
Lodge. The senior senator from
Massachusetts. whose senate lead
ership Mr.. Capper follows-when
he feels like it-has never favored
the primary system of direct nomi-
nations, nor woman suffrage, nor
prohibition. Mr.. Lodge opposed

last session, although it was very
necessary enforcement legislation
