ARK AN EARNEST JUDGE

Montana probably never had a
more conscientious and sincere Judge
than A. P. Stark who has presided
in the district court in Park county
the last twelve years. Not only has
Judge Stark proved his worth on the
district bench, but he has served as
a member of the supreme court COM
mission. He is the Republican nomi-
nee for Associate Justice of the State
Supreme Court, and it seems to be
the general statewide comment that
no better man could have been found
for that office.

UP TO THE FARMERS

Do the farmers of Montana prefer
to have another lawyer who has the
support of the corporate interests Of
the state sent to Washington as their
United States Senator, or do they
want an experienced farmer in the
senate who, as a member of congress
the last four years, has been yer per-
istent in his efforts to support the
farming industry in Montana. If
the latter is the case Congressman
Carl w. Riddick, Republican nominee
for the United States senate, should
the solid support of the farm
~ vie at the November election.

GLACIER TRAIL SETS
HIGH TRAFFIC MARX

Glacier trail has established itself
as the most important in this section
running east and west across the
state, according to figures revealed
! through the check-up of traffic on
t all the highways of the state taken
during the week of August 2O-26.
and in comparing it with the Yellow
stone, heretofore considered the fav-
orite highway, the Glacier traffic
more than doubles the trail to the
south. The two points selected for
this comparison are WiIlmar and
Olivia, barely 25 miles apart. The
announcement of this tally is an ella
ton to the Glacier officers, and p
7. Fuqua, the national secretary who
has been in consultation with F. c.
Thornton, the trail president. the
past week, has now gone into North
Dakota with high hopes of securing
greater support in that state and
Montana. The organization work is
to be pushed through to Glacier park
this season.
The Wilimar Gazette last week car
RED the account of the Glaciers
triumph ove the Yellowstone. and
with the realization becoming more
prevalent throughout the state that
the Glacier trail is shorter, more d.
and becoming the most improved !
east-and-west highway across the !
state. its future is bright. Following
is the Gazette report: !
For some time the Yellowstone :
rail has enjoyed the distinction of !
being known as the main a~rterial
highway running east and west
through this section of the country.
n the last year or two the Glacier
rail has sprung into being and has :
.eriously challenged the Yellowstone
rail as being the most popular route
tourists.
''In view of this fact, figures on
lie in the office of Maintenance
superintendent G. M, Matthies of
he highway department, relative to
traffic census taken during the
yeek of August 20-26 last, furnish
luch of interest.
"In the seven days of the census
less than 1904 vehicles were
hecked on highway No. 10 at the
asst limit of this city. This phenom-
nal figure means a daily average of
900 At cars travelling on the Gla-
er trail. For the same length of
me on Highway No. IL the Yellow
one trail, at Olivia, the census
lowed that 3,208 vehicles were
lecked. This means that there is
1t only twice as much traffic on the
lacier trail as on the Yellowstone,

RETURN TO
COMPETITIVE BASIS
Would Withdraw Restrictions Placed
by Government to Solve Trans
portation Problem

MISUNDERSTANDING of a rail-
road rate holiday-during which rail
roads could make their own rates with
put government restriction-has been
suggested at the treasury as a possible
solution of the nations transportation
problem.
The belief vas expressed that II a
holiday of government rate regulation
of five years or more was declared,
the railroads could fix their rates to
meet the varying changes in the diff
ferent sections of the country some
what on a basis of what the traffic
would bear" and better railroad SER
vice and greatly improved industrial
and commercial conditions would arise.
Secretary Mellon was represented as
favoring the removal of rate r~estric-
tons from the railroads and a return
to the old competitive basis under
which he vas understood TO believe,
the country had the cheapest and best
transportation facilities in its history.
The suggestion advanced at the
treasury was made merely as n of
the possible solutions of the national
transportation problem but was taken
as significant in view of the known in
tention of President Harding to recon-
mend changes in the transportation act
sometime next winter.

The location of q canning factory is
determined by the suitability of the
section for the growing of peas and
by the prospects of obtaining, at
equitable prices, sufficiently large
crops In the vicinity to run the plant
at Its full capacity for a reasonable
length of time. The pea crop is
usually grown under contract. The
canning company usually specifies the
varieties and acreage TO be planted,
often provides the seed. n decides
the time to harvest. From 10 to Is
acres of peas will maintain a fair ro-
tation balance for a farm of 100 acres.
Such crops as alfalfa and clover
may be sown as companion crops with
peas. In many sections of the country
where the early types of peas are
harvested during the first part OF June
the land may be fitted Immediately
for some other crop. Often a poor
crop of peas may be deliberately
turned under without harvesting TO
get the secondary effect upon any sue
ceeding crop. The increase with wheat
following this practice has been NOTED
in New York state as varying from
5 to 1S bushels per acre. Some farm
ers believe that a marked improve
ment is also seen on the hay crop and
on the pasturage which follows the
wheat. -
General Suggestions. Ii
Good drainage is very important.
Fall blowing is recommended where II
can he practiced without injury to the
land, and thorough filming of the top
layer of soil at planting time. Weeds
are partly prevented by the early
working of the ground, by the heavy
formed by the pea vines, and
also by the early harvesting Of the
crop. Stable manure when available,
may he applied with advantage. Many
growers prefer to apply the manure
to the previous crop rather than d.
rectly to. the peas. Manure mixed
with decayed pea. vines should not be
used as this practice Is liable to
spread diseases affecting the crop.
The growing of peas Increases the
nitrogen content OF the soli. Inocula-
tion Of the seed will often give an
increase of 100 to 700 pounds of peas
per acre.
Seed should be procured from a
reliable source II should be from
the crop of the previous year and
not a blending of new and old seeds.
The time for planting and harvesting
is determined by the locality. Methods
of harvesting and practices followed
In disposing of the pea vines are dis

Casper, Wyo.-Plans are now under
way here for the establishment of n

The fact that there already is a high
school cadet corps here and that II

maintained without the assistance OF
the government is one of the big rea-
sons why the establishment Of such a

Billings.-The Standard Oil company
of California, which moved Montana
Wyoming headquarters to this city last
fall, has entered the Beauvais Creek
area on the Grow Indian reservation,
3S miles southeast of Billings. by pur-
chase from former Senator I. s. Hogan
of one-half of his acreage on that struc-
ture and by acquisition of one-half of
the Dox-Beauvais company's holdings
there. While the price paid was not
made public the consideration is known
to be large enough to rate 1t as n Of
the biggest oil land deals contaminated
In this state for many months.
Scope of Transfer
Holdings of Senator Hogan pur-
chased by the Standard of California
constitute practically one-half of the
original King and Hackney lease,
granted by the Indian bureau on recon-
mendation of the tribal council and
secured by Senator Hogan from the
original lenses. The Dox-Beauvais
holdings secured by the California
company embraces part of the Warren
and Bishop leases. also granted by the
Indian department on recommendation
of the tribal council.
The Dox-Beauyais company retains
Its well and the acreage on which the
well is located. and Senator Hogan also
retains his well. Operation of the two
tests in this field will continue under
control of Senator Hogan. hui. 1t is as
sured that If production Is obtained in
either of the wells the California COM
pany will Immediately launch a drill
Ing company for thorough development
