!" HERE are Montanans who do not realize
that this state is destined, in the very near
future, to become one of the great oil pro-
ducing sections of North America.
Last month the pipe line run of Cat Creek,
a record that is indisputable, was $4,000 barrels
of oil, or at the rate of 1892 900 barrels a year.
The output of the Kevin-Sunburst district is now
about $4,000 barrels a month, or 100000 barrels
a year, a grand total of over 100000 barrels
annually. Eight years ago this was the output

Some Quick Fortunes Made by Montana

Here's a poor ~bookkeeper in a Lewistown

out an existence on a small salary. He became
interested, in a shoestring way, in a Cat Creek
oil proposition. Oil was developed and his in
come is now $500 per month
"Ty" Cobb, Geyser rancher, put $4,000 into
the syndicate which owns the Hogan well lease.
A month ago the biggest producer in the Kelvin
Sunburst structure was drilled in on this land.
Cobb's interest is worth easily 100000.

northern Montana syndicate a few months ago.
He could get 2 5000 for his interest now.

Is being gathered by the State De-
partner of Agriculture to show the
relative costs of the various meth
DDS of selling potatoes. Distribution
and marketing costs have been a big
contributing factor to the unsettled
conditions of the potato growing dis
tricts this fall, and the timely sur
vey is expected to develop import
ant factors for the guidance of grow
ers and shippers next year.
In reporting the results of its in
vestigation, the State Bureau of
Markets announces that it aims to
have the statistics reduced to such
plain terms that every farmer and
consumer can easily grasp the facts.
There will be no guesswork in arriv-
ing at the facts, as groups of actual
sales are under investigation and
the individual shipments are being
traced from the farm to the kitchen
table with tabulations of every cost
factor.
Market officials have commended
that with farm production of crops
developed to a high point of econo-
mic efficiency, the next great step in
development of the farming bust
ness must be improved methods and

RUNY0N GIVES
HIS PLEDGES
G. O. P. Candidate for Gov
ernor Speaks at Jersey City
on Party's Platform

JERSEY-CITY, Oct. 5-The first
gun in the fight for governor in the
Republican party was fired here last
night at the opening of his cam
paign by William N. Runyon, Re-
publican candidate for governor be-
fore more than six hundred Repub-
licans. Senator Runyon is launch
ing his campaign in the home city
of Mayor Frank Hague and Gov
ernor Edwards reviewed the Repub-
Iican platform. In referring to the
public utility question he said the
Republican platform spoke in no
uncertain terms.
Continuing on the utility question
the speaker said, 1.-The utility pro-
gram calls for disclosing of condi-
lions so the public shall be left no
longer in doubt, shall be no longer
suspicious of conditions, a program
of frankness and that frankness /
know full well if the Republicans
be given power will result in a bet
ter understanding as between the
great utility companies and the pub
lie.
THE utilities must be had and
they must prosper reasonably, but
they must not prosper u~nreasonably
and they must not hide from the
public those things which it is the
public's lawful right to know. The
Republican party has promised that
these conditions shall be brought
about and that as a result of 1t all
the tendency must inevitably be for
the reduction Of rates in our great
utilities"
Mr.. Runyon said in part:
my thought of a political plat
form is essentially a different one.
I believe 1t Is the part of those who
have it's forming and its making to
make it conform to the conditions
of the day to make it give as much
as it can of promise and assurance,
not as little, and I have belief that
the platform adopted by the Repub-
lican party yesterday is that sort of
a platform. 1t speaks of big things
and it does not speak of them evas-
lively. 1t speaks of things of gen.
eral moment, of general interest,
and 1t does not try to sidestep. 1t
was prophecied that that platform
yesterday would be camouf1aged, that
it would consist Of a lot of generic
terms, of glittering g~eneralities with
no essential meaning behind or in
them all. Such was not the case
and I challenge anyone so to charge.
ut is a platform that does mot
meet with universal Approval; 1
know it, but it is a platform-hav-
ing been associated in its making
it lie a platform that was conceiv-
ed in sincerity, that was given forth
as the result of a real belief in the
practical workings of 1t all and the
result of it all, a result should be a

r. HE value of Tanlac as a fam
i lily medicine is again very
forcibly demonstrated in the home
Of Mrs. Josephine Deckret, 1912
Bank st., Baltimore. After putting
this splendid tonic to the test with
herself and three children, Mrs.
Deckret says:
'Tanlac has been such a great
blessing to myself and three children
that it has won my lifelong praise.
My health had been so wretched for
two or three months that ! vas just
dragging around. / could neither
eat nor sleep to do much good and
had a world of trouble with indi-
gestion. I have just finished my
third bottle of Tanlac and am almost
a well oma already.
John Frank, aged six, and Caro-
lima, who is four. both complained
of headaches, pains in the stomach
and were very restless at night. They
had no appetites, were thin and pale,
and took no interest in play or any
thing else.
And Joseph Paul, two years old,
was in just about the same fix. ]

fretful day and night, and was very
thin and pale. They have taken
about two bottles of Tanlac each now
and healthier, happier children
could not be found. John Frank

and little Joseph is as fat as a but
terball and playful as a kitten.

praising Tanlac." ,
The experience of the Deckret
family is only typical of thousands
of others whose statements are on
