valued at approximately S74,-

is desirous that the city's streets be
connected up with all trunk line roads
1t is planned to erect necessary signs
close to Great Falls, to give tourists
detailed information. The club wants
the thoroughfares to the proposed new

campaign to impress upon the people

is accomplished by sending out news

means more publicity of the right sort.
Fight For Fair Freight Rates
Other projects which the club will
push during 1922 are: Trade tours
more conventions; Great Lakes st.
Lawrence canal; oil publicity: whole
sale trade extension, and elimination of

has taken the lead in this and has plans
on foot for the organization of state
wide traffic organization.
Many more matters could be enumer-

club. With such concrete plans for
the welfare and development of this

Ambitious 1922 Program.
The Great Falls Commercial club is
on the job all the time. 1t has an am
bilious program for 1922, the success
of which depends entirely upon the
revenue of the club and the united
backing of its membership.
Among some of the clubs aims for
this year is the greater development
of the Sun River and Northern Mon
tana irrigation projects-to aid in the
securing of appropriations to carry on
the work. The officers of the club
have been active in supporting the
Smith McNary bill and have urged upon
congress the necessity for the passage
of the measure which will materially
benefit Montana's irrigation projects.
The merchants of Great Falls are CO.

respective congressman supporting the
bill, mentioning the Importance of it's

west.
The clubs plan for developing the
industrial activities of the state is to
encourage the production of raw mate
rails in Montana and to promote their
utilization in manufacturing; to urge
local consumption of local products; to
increase investments in legitimate local
concerns and to enlarge the pay rolls
of Great Falls and Montana

farm lands during the summer

The economic welfare and
future development Of agricul-
ture in many portions of Mon
tana will survive only with the
assurance of a steady supply
of water, available for irriga-
ton which can only be made
possible by a continuance of
our forests.
Another allied industry that
has brought its portion OF
wealth to Montana is stock
raising. Formerly there were
vast unfenced areas available
for grazing but now virtually
the only grazing lands open to
the public are controlled by the
government.
Annually on the national for
ests of Montana approximately
100000 sheep and 100000 cat
tie and horses are grazed. If
this land were not available, it
would seriously cripple the
stock industry of the state and
make many ranches which are
dependent on the forest range
practically worthless. The ben
eficial effects of regulated
grazing on fire hazard is not
generally appreciated but the
construction of driveways to
place stock on the several for
est units serve as effective fire
lines to prevent the spread of
fires. Further, stock eats a
large amount of rank growth,
that if left would accumulate
and form a bad fire risk. On
the other hand, forest fires are
a menace, especially to sheep,
and the toll is often heavy.
Through carelessness, reck-
lessness and desire for quick
returns, the eastern. central
and lake states virtually have
destroyed their vast forest
wealth and the best authorities
estimate that the southeastern
states have only five years
supply on hand. Western tim
ber is now being shipped east in
large amounts and it is only a
short time until the great
northwest will be the center of
timber production in the Unit
ed States. Let us not through
carelessness squander our nat
ural timber wealth.

ture, Montana's greatest natu-

slogan "Help Keep Our Forests

The need of the application
by all users of this slogan
Help Keep Our Forests Green"
is understood by all who have
seen the effects of a serious
forest conflagration.
The Monarch fire of 1919 is
a typical example. Here we
have barren hills, devoid Of
green timber, with scattered
black snags as tomstones,
marking the area of a once
thrifty growth of green timber
and which may serve to warn
against future carelessness
which in a night may destroy
timber that took 100 years to
grow.
Our childrens' children may
live to see Kibby Canyon the
beauty spot it was before 1919.
After every heavy rain, since
this fire, the roads to Monarch
are filled with soil and rock,
washed from the steep hill
sides. Devastated forests do
not provide forest cover which
prevents the gradual run-off of
surface and seepage water.
To the recreation seekers this
site is a warning that should
leave a lasting impression.

IN Great Falls was there greater
desire on the part of its business
and professional men, whose individual
prosperity depends upon the prosper

bigger and better community than right
now. Every person who has given the
subject serious thought during the last
few months, when business has been

ical conclusion that Great Falls can
and will become the greatest Montana
city, but this much desired result can
be attained only through organized eff
fort with every persons shoulder to

individual or any set of individuals to

business taking a better turn in many
sections Of the country, the dawn of a
better day is assured all communities.
Some cities will be just prosperous
enough to hold their own, others will
be prosperous enough to grow a little,
while still others will be prosperous
enough to double and treble their size.
Those cities which are to double and
treble in population and wealth will be
those cities which have natural re-
sources that can be developed and a
citizenry that is willing to organize it
self into a cooperative unit for COM
munity advancement.
Great Falls is such city.
