New Voters. Attention.

The Bennington Banner calls atten-

election in Vermont. particularly to
women voters who are voting for the first

cross after the Eame and that the names
OF other candidates must not be scratched
out in any way. There may be an idea
in the minds of some new voters that il
is necessary TO erase or obliterate the
names of those for whom they do not
wish TO vote, which idea is wrong and

The Herald occasionally receives a let
ter of protest against its position on one
thing or another, say on Greene's potash
vote, the Muscle Shoals proposition or
the eradication y of bovine tuberculosis.
This is natural enough. and dissent

The Herald of being against the farm

them. One of them is as follows:
The Herald is privileged to oppose

The Herald. of course. has not opposed
farmers organizations mt any time; on
the contrary, it has given probably more
space to its local farm bureau and TO the
activities of other farmers organizations
than any other newspaper in the state.
What it does oppose and will oppose
is exploitation of farm bureau member

latorS, just as il opposed an attempt, not
by the farm bureaus, but by Il highly

1t opposed and will oppose the plan of
exploiting, not only the farmers but the
taxpayers of the state, through the ex-
penditure of nearly a million dollars for
bounties on dead cows.
1t opposed and will oppose the attempt
of farm bureau organizations to get into
politics, knowing full well that politics
will kill the best farmers organization
that ever existed.
1t opposed and viii oppose the attempt
of the farm bloc to break up party organ
ization and take possession of congress.
All this sort of thing is done. not by
the farmer himself or even by majority
of farm organization members, but by
leaders, special agents and self-appointed
spokesmen who speak without any au
thority whatever except from little
groups of one kind or another and who
happen to have charge of things while

which. if followed out, would probably
invalidate the ballot So all voters should
bear in mind that all they have to do is
TO mark cross after the name of the
candidate they wish to vote for. or if
they wish to vote for the straight party
ticket all they have to do is to make a
cross at the space designated at the head
of the party ticket. A good deal of con-
fusion of mind would be eliminated if
the voters follow these simple instruc-
tions: Have nothing to do with the

DAYS

Upon the authority of Mr.. +. w. Beier, official crop statsti
clan for Montana, this state will harvest the second largest grain
crop in its history, providing that no destroying factor gets in its
work between now and the time the harvest is secured. The har-
vest has already begun in many parts of the state and the winter
wheat In the Belt valley is being cut in the northern part with in
dications that it will make close to bumper crop. In this section
the spring grain is looking well yet, but rain is needed to fill out
the heads and mature the crop. All farmers in this section report
one of the biggest crops of hay cut in years, and in most places a
good second crop of alfalfa is about ready for the mower. On
the whole, Montanais agricultural interests are looking fairly
good, and there is a promise of at least fair prices and a rather bet
ter local market than for several years.
The revival of the mining interests will be a large help to the
farmers. The big metal mines of the state are employing all the
skilled men that can be obtained and are calling for more. There
are indications the strikes of the coal miners and railroad men will
soon be settled and that transportation and production WILL get back
TO normal conditions in the near future. While we are not daz-
it is undoubtedly a fact that Montana is destined to take a prom
lnent place IN the production of crude oil in the near future. We
at least know now that there are well defined oil fields within the
borders of our state and that in the natural course of events they
will be eventually developed. The development of these great
basic industries is bound to make better markets for the Mon
long before these better conditions will become noticeable.
Until transportation becomes normal the farmer is confronted
with the problem of storage. There is also the question of fuel
for threshing operations which in a few weeks will become acute
A large percentage of the threshing outfits in this section are
equipped for steam power and use coal for fuel. Some operators
oil, but they are up against it for storage facilities, as it would not
pay them to order in less than carload lots. The farmer can handle
the storage and threshing problem by stacking his grain and hold
ing it over until spring, or until the threshers can get the coal
or the railroads can make regular shipments. Grain can be
threshed from the stack at any time of the year and if the stack

but nevertheless 1T will be well for farmers to consider it.

FIRE DESTROYS BUILD

Fire caused by lightning Sunday
morning burned the agricultural ex-

ministration building, three bleachers
and the rest room built by the Mon
tana Society of Pioneers at the Mon
tana State fair grounds, a mile north
west of Helena.
The blaze started about 8 o'clock.
The buildings were all old and of
wooden construction. q
Insurance of $4,000 was carried
on the structures burned, out Of a
total of s76,635 carried on all the
state fair grounds buildings. 1t is
estimated that the total loss will not
exceed the $4,000, although the re-
placement cost may run higher.
Work was begun Monday morning

ANOTHER INSECT PEST
49, THREATENING AT BUFFALO

The farmers of the Buffalo territory
have sent in samples of a new type
Of insect which has heretofore appar-
emily not appeared in number in this
district. The entomology department
of Bozeman, describes this insect as
the Mormon cricket, but it has never
been known that this particular spec
les was injurious in Montana, though
IN Washington and Idaho a similar
cricket Matching in great number in
the hills march down on the crops and
do some damage both to alfalfa and
grain crops. Reports from the Buff
falo district indicates that the partic-
ular type of plants that the crickets
appear to attack are fanweed and mus
This particular species is very
much larger than the ordinary cricket,
which it resembles somewhat. 1t is
also of a different color. In certain
fields of the Buffalo district near the
foothills they have appeared in rather
numbers. Should these insects
appear to be harmful to the crops it is
'uggested that the ordinary bran mash
ised for grasshoppers with the banana
oil left u is effective. In Washing
on, where a similar cricket is of eco
ionic Importance, the farmers have
,een heading them off by digging a
Itch and then building a one-board
owe which the crickets are not
bile to crawl or hop.

HOLLYWOOD FARMERS TO
TRUCK GRAIN To MARK EFT

During the summer Ia motor
trucks have been sold to farmers liv-
ing in the vicinity of Highwood and
those thus equipped are planning on
marketing their W and neighbors'
grain by this method.
Harvesting in the Highwood terri
tory has begun in earnest, and bind
ers. headers and combines are busy in
hundreds of fields. Winter and late
spring wheat are proving of heavier
WELD than late estimates indicated.
Last fall a number Of trucks were
in service in this section hauling gram
from the threshng rigs to the ele-
vators, and the method proved an eco
nomical one, according to those who
employed them.
In case of an emergency in Montana
resulting from the effects of the rail-
road striks, the 1,500 automobile
trucks of the state might be depended

supplies to mills from short distances,
but to depend wholly upon automobile
transportation would be Impractical,
according to Chester C. Davis, COM

THE RIGHT TO THE FLOORS

The proposal to give cabinet members the right to a seat on
the floor OF the senate and house and to participate in debate is
again being considered at the capitol. President Harding and his
department chiefs have also given the matter attention and it is
their unanimous belief that the privilege should be granted. 1t is
not intended TO make the presence of cabinet members on the
floor OF either house mandatory, but to give them the privilege of
measures IN which their departments are interested,
and OF answering attacks that may be made upon them by senators
or representatives.
For many congresses bills have been introduced making the
necessary changes in existing law, and in the present congress
measures are pending. Friends of the legislation believe it
would make for greater harmony between the executive and legis-
latlve branches OF the government, and contribute to greater speed
in the enactment of legislation. With the large number of import
bills awaiting the attention of congress, it is doubtful if the
granting the privilege of the floor to cabinet members
be taken up at the present session, but discussion of the sub
lect now may pave the way for the passage of such a bill in the
future.
