TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
MARKET OUTLOOK FOR FARM
PRODUCTS AND LIVE STOCK

Aside from an overabundance o
common cattle, which invariably oc
ours at this season of the year, th'
cattle market is a healthy affair.
Cooler weather and the recent set
t1ement of the coal strike and raj
strike have brought an expansion O.
the dressed beef trade and the larges
run of the season at the leading mar
kets last week was absorbed at high
er prices for practically all kinds.
Prime steers reached new top Ol
$11.75 and scarcity of such steers Is
expected to continue until December
intermediate grades of steers failed
to advance as much as the best kinds
as the western range delegation in
creased materially. Cows and heifers
also made moderate gains for the
week. Bulls recovered smartly from
the recent depression and calf prices
were the highest of the season.
A further increase in market sup
ply can be expected before the high
point of the autumn beef harvest is
reached, but no pronounced decline
in the price level is likely unless
brought about through the abund-
ance of pork and poultry during the
fall months. The broad movement
of feeders to the country in the last
few weeks forecasts a generous sup
ply of shortfeds within the next three
so that a pronounced advance

Cattle Feeders Continue Active

kets continue to run far above the
period in either of the
two preceding years and are increas

pastures was an additional stimulus
Prices show but little
change, since the supply from the
western range, the southwestern pas
soral area and from Canada is ade-
luate for the demand. Light weights

he safest opportunity for the feeder.
Increase in Pork Production

The increase of slightly over per

low prices for hogs com

handsome profits of the last year can
lot be expected to continue.
Receipts of hogs at the leading
markets again set a new record for

MONTANA POTATO
INDUSTRY GROWS
GREAT SHOWING OF TUBERS
DRY LAND AND IRRIGATED
AT STATE FAIR
'More Irritation and Less Irrigation
is Slogan of Pat Carney of Water
loo, PoPtato King Of Montana; He
Planted First POTATOES There in
1869 and is Still Growing Them.

One of the large exhibits in the
agriculture building at the state fair
was the potato show. A large space
in the building was taken up by the
display and the quality of the spuds
on show showed in remarkable de-
gree the Importance of the potato
industry in Montana.
Both the dry land and irrigated va
rieties were in the exhibit with quail
tty and quantity evident in both divi-
sions. Pat Carney, the pioneer po-
tato producer in the state, had large
exhibit of his spuds on display. When
asked whether or not his potatoes
were dry land or irrigated, Carney
replied: 'That is an important ques-
tion. My potatoes are what are term
ed as non-irrigated. believe in more
irritation and less irrigation"
Mr.. Carney explained that he
meant by this that water could be
used to advantage on potatoes but
that too much would do more harm
than good. Mr.. Carney is from Wa
terloo, Madison county, and says he
planted his first potatoes in 1869.
Among the several species of po-
tatoes on display the following SEEM
ed to predominant: Triumph, Rural
New Workers, Early Ohio, Russell
Burbank, Irish Cobbler and Melted
Gem.
The display of the potatoes this
year at the fair demonstrated that
much progress and growth is being
made in the industry in Montana.
However, potato growing is in its
infancy and great possibilities are
open in the industry; it goes hand
in hand with diversified farming

That Montana is coming to the
! front as a corn growing state may be
seen from the display of corn at the
state fair. One side of the old hor-
ticultural building was taken up with
| the exhibit of corn from all parts of
| the state. Because there is such a
wide range of climatic conditions and
altitude, the state is divided into five
districts for judging the awards. The
corn displays were arranged accord
| ing to the districts where they were
produced. 1t is estimated that there
were 5000 ears of corn entered this
year.
Several county entries are worthy
of mention in particular. Richland,
McCone and Custer counties were
close competitors. The Custer coun-
ty exhibit was shown at the Midland
Empire fair and 1t took all Of the
first places, with the exception Of
the large sweet corn class. The prin-
cipal varieties in this collection were
White and Yellow Dent, White and
Yellow Flint, Northwestern Dent,
Minnesota 13, and flour corn which
is not placed in the premium list.
Custer county had two bushel en-
tries besides several fodder displays.
Land of Big Ones
McCone county had the distinction
of showing the largest ears Of corn
at the show. These ears, about Is
inches in length, are of the Rainbow
Flint variety and were grown by Mr..
Cawthorne.

corn during the past year. In 1921
there were 5000 acres of corn plant
ed in the county. This year there
was an increase of 500 per cent
$4,000 acres were put into corn. f.
w. Kerr has developed Dent corn
that grows in IS days. On field
that he broke out of sod this spring,
Kerr expects yield of 65 bushels
per acre. This is very good yield
for dry land. Another Custer county
grower, Dave Stewart, has a field of
White Dent from which he expects
a yield of 80 bushels to the acre.
'Ten years ago." says Kerr, s'they
were all making fun of me for try
ing to grow corn in Montana. Now
they are breaking their necks to get |
seed from me, and in order to be
sure of getting it, they are ordering
early. Why. last spring l sold 200 |
bushels of corn before I PLANTED a |

Two New Varieties
There are two new varieties of |
,orn which will likely be certified |

lesota 49," It was developed by Mr.. I
Kerr for conditions in this state.
rhe other variety is the "Dave Stew
lrt White Dent" and 1t was grown
md developed by Mr.. Stewart.
The Montana State Corn show will
'e held in Miles City about Novem-
'er II this year. There were 1000
ars of corn entered last year and
10000 are expected this year. Sew
nteen counties were entered at Miles
,ity in 1921. 1t is expected that

tate fair will be taken to Miles City

wheat grown in Big Horn county
this year, the corporation grew 12,-
500 acres on the Fort Peck Indian
reservation in the northeastern part
OF the state, and while the returns
were not so good as in Big Horn
county. fair yield is being harvest
ed.
About $4,000 bushels of the first
grain harvested was sold from the
machine at prices around 90 cents
for the winter wheat and 81 for the
spring grain, but the balance of up
wards of quarter of million bu-
shells is being held for better prices,
which Campbell is confident will pre-
vail before next June.

GOVERNORS PATRIOTIC SPEECH
 DELIVERED JUNEAU YESTERDAY

America is today the most potent influence for world peace.
 Celebrating this anniversary, as it is being celebrated throughout the land in our insular possessions, AL aska proudly takes part and pays tribute to our forefathers who found ed a nation in wisdom and justice.
 "The union is firm and indestruc- tible. Its constitution is made ada mant by the years.
 ''In the supreme crisis of the union, William Henry Seward, whose vener- ated name, will ever be synonmous with that of Alaska, said:
 CT know only one country, and one sovereign-the United States of America and the American people. And such as my allegiance is, is the, loyalty of every other citizen of the United States. As I speak he will speak when his time arrives. He knows no other country and no other sovereign
 His words were charged with loyalty and inspired by patriotism. The American citizen stands for one country and one sovereign-the Uni ted States of America an the Amer ican people. Alaska today sub scribes to that Seward sentiment. Alaska is American through and through, and will be kept so as the years roll on. Alaska halls old glory on this anniversary and looks into the future with confidence.

German Finances to Be Supervised by a
 Committee of Allies
By Associated Press

Paris, July 22.-The plan for the allied control of Germany's fin ances worked out by the committee of guarantees, official acceptance of which by the German gover . ent was announced today, provides for the crediting of the committees to practically all the departments of the German ministers of finance over which they will exercise personal supervisor. The bureaus dealing with receipts and expenditures, the move ment of capital abroad and questions relating to the publication of finan- cial and economic statistics will be especially controlled
 Germany agrees to furnish the committee with frequet statements, showing the progress and condition of practically every phase of govern ment finances.
 The majority of the opinion in French financial circles expresses satisfaction with the plan adopted. A few extremists desire more stringent control but generally 1t is thought that that would be more diff ficult to exercise without prejudice ing the sovereignty of the state.

WILLIAM A. WHITE
 IS UNDER ARREST t
 FOR DIETING LAW
(Conttnued from page onel

The Kansas legislature is not in ses- session. My only other course Is to seek the annulment of the order dom of utterances. The risk Is great, but the action quicker. If In seek ing the annulment of any order or law, the protesting citizens obey the order or law while the case is pend ing no man can question his motive. This Is exactly what I am doing and it Is what I am asking all good citi- zens to do. The case now Is in the courts. That Is where 1t belongs"
 Continuing his statement, MT. White said:
 "The warrant for my arrest came today in the hands. of the county at torney. and after the usual prellIni- naries, was served. The case will be tried in the district court, and in the meantime pending the legal settlement of the rights in the case the objectionable placard will not be posted.
 To Respect Law
 T have often criticised bitterly corporations that took advantage of the laws delay to continue prac- tices questioned by public officials. So while the matter which interests me most deeply is pending in court, I feel that it is the part of good citizenship to respect the duly con stituted authorities and their opin- ion of which loyalty requires.

Big Three Haue Not
 Furnished Majors
 With Many Players
By WALTER CAMP

Copyright, 1922, by The Age-Herald)
 New York, July 22.--Walter Mc- Phee. Princetons second baseman. is going in for professional baseball and has signed with the Giants This fact has been reported. but the point it brings up has not been discussed. It involves the real prospects of any member of the Princeton, Harvard. or Yale hines who takes up baseball as a profession.
 What do the records show con- corning their success? Plenty of col lege bred players have made good in the big leagues, but they have not come from the big three. Yale, liar ward and Princeton players have tried to make the grade. but have dropped quickly out of sight. The majority of successful players have come from the conference institutions or less prominent seats of learning.
 When we say less prominent. we are not speaking in terms of base ball, for certainly Holy Cross, |Georgetown or Fordham stands high on the diamond. Frisch Is one of the latest collegians who has made good, but a Mathewson. a Collins, Cooms a Plank. is never a graduate from big three baseball.
 Tot Murphy-Mike Murphy's brother-went from Yale's diamond to the Giants, but he had not the physique for that life. In fact, the only permanent star from Yale in big league company was a pitcher named Hutchison, who. after a period of business, went into pro baseball and held a commanding position In the box. Doc Hillebrand of Princeton made good for Pittsburg as pitcher but retired to business early in his career. Both Hutchinson and lille brand were men of wonderful phy- sique.
 Possibilities
 Of the stars on this years college diamond there are many who might take up the professional game with fair chances of success. but only a few could be gathered from the big three. Outside of these universities there is much material. Hyman and Kenyon of Georgetown would meet big league requirements: McNamara of Fordham might. and so might Cousinea. Colgate could supply a pitcher in Blume and Georgetown a fine infielder in Sheedy; MaGuire of Holy Cross would make good as a second baseman and Gazella of La Fayette and Goutreau of the same college are superior infielders. Gag non of Holy Cross could play short stop in big company. while Siamendin- ger of Holy Cross. Donovan of Ford ham and Florence of Georgetown would all stand excellent chances of making good as outfielders.
 Perhas the chief reason for the failure of the big three to suply its ratio of big leaguers is, first of all. that in these universities there is .

 Many candidates. both state and county, were in attendance, but po- 1itical speeches were taboo; they con fined their activities to passing around their cards and shaking the hands of the voters.
 The barbecue dinner included all kinds of barbecued meats, salads and other accessories The affair was a decided success in every particular.

 The contract issue is the only one of the three issues on which a strike vote was taken which. Mir. Jewell's eta tement today said, held up a pos- sible settlement. The other two strike issues were wages and work ing rules. it having been virtually agreed that these m~..c-e could be submitted to the labor board for a rehearing.
 Overlook Labor Board
 The seniority and adjustment board issues have been brought up since the strike started.
 Appealing for national adjustment boards to decide disputes, Mir. Jewell said that the Association of Railway Executives opposes such boards for the purpose of deliberately" over 1c oking the labor board.
 Employees desire one national board. the statement said, because shop work conditions are practically the same everywhere, uniform national rules have been promulgated by the labor board. uniform Interpretation of such rules is desirable and intermedi- ate boards will create inharmonious rulings and regional boards would impose duplication and unfair ex- peLse.
 The proposition to deprive men of seniority rights because of suspension of work the statement said, Ifs ut terly indefensible if the facts are un- derstood" The right of tho senior employe to be the last laid off and to have first preference in selection for preferable jobs, he said. was of great importance. and asserted that the railroads wished to do away with seniority in order to weed out those workers most active in protection of rights of their fellow employees"
 ''If the railway executives insist upon using this suspension of work. which they forced upon the employees. as an excuse for depriving them of the fruits of lifelong continuous faithful service" the statement said. they will only give further evidence iof the absolute necessity for the or sanized employees to fight to the last ditch the conspiracy against their Fundamental rights and against the general welfare of all men who live by labor"
