COUNTY CLERK SHORT
OF BILLS FOR MAILING

Copies of the two amendments to
the state constitution and the refer
endum and initiative measures that
are to be voted on in the general cleo
tion this fall will be sent out to regis
tered voters in Cascade county in a
few days by County Clerk John Z.
Moran. The shipment of these copies
to the county clerks office from the
office of the secretary of state lacks
nearly 1,500 of meeting the county
registration, County Clerk Moran
said.
One of the constitutional amend
ments that will be placed on the bal
lots in the election relates to the
amendment of section Is, article II,
creating county boards of equalization
and a state board of equalization. The
other relates to the amendment of
article 16 by adding a section to be
known as section 7, authorizing the
state legislature by a general or by
special law to provide form and plan
of consolidation of city and county
governments.

BOUSTEAD SENDING OUT
THE TAX STATEMENTS

County Treasurer f. s. Bougtead
of Judith Basin county has started
mailing out the 1922 tax statements
and expects to have the entire list in
the mails in another week The first
statements mailed were figured from
the personal book and as soon as COM
pleted statements for real estate
taxes will be commenced.
There are nearly $500 assessments
on the rolls and the figuring and
mailing Of this number Of statements
entails no small task. In view of
the statements that there will be
big reduction in taxes this year, Jud-
ith Basin county taxpayers generally
will be keenly interested in compar-
ison Of this years statement with that
of last year. The average is stated
to be over 40 per cent, and comparison
will undoubtedly be made
by every taxpayer, those living in this
end Of the county, or having property
in both Judith Basin and Cascade
counties, making comparison Of the
two counties.

Seed Loan. Man to be in
Great Falls ON SATURDAY.

Problems of farmers who have
made federal seed loans will be re-
viewed Saturday at the office of
County Agent F. E. McSpadden in
Great Falls, when a government rep
resentative will be present to receive
collections and to go over the situa-
tion.
Farmers who have obtained seed
loans and do not understand questions
of collection, sale of the grain, plans
for storage and the like, have been
asked to meet with the government
representative at this time and have
their cases explained.
The government, in its collections
of leins on crops by reason of the
loans, has made arrangements so that
no hardship is worked upon the farm
er, permitting the storage of grain
and holding for better prices where
this is desired. Those questions will
be explained by the representative of
the seed loan office.
Elevator men who have had situa-
tions arise which they cannot under
stand, are also asked to meet with
the government representative while
he is. in Great Falls.

Belt Valley Exhibits Again Make Possible Big
County Winnings at the Montana State Fair

Cascade county won greater mum
ber of prizes and places on its en.rie:
at the state fair held at Helena last
week than any other county, and a
persual of the awards in the various
divisions will reveal the fact that this
was largely made possible by the
entries from the Belt Valley. Had
there been grand prize for the coun-
ty having the largest number of
points, based on percentage of prizes
won, that prize would have come to
Cascade. the county took three first
prizes and two thirds in the division
awards. 1t took first in vegetables,
forage and north central corn and
third in grains and potatoes. In the
general award on corn for the state,
Cascade took fourth place.
The showing made by Cascade eoun-
ty in the grain division is better under
stood when it is realized that Gallatin
county, always strong contender,
took fifth place. In the garden class,
Cascade had an easy victory. This
was the first time in the history of the
county that it had taken first in this
division. The forage class also was
signal victory for Cascade county, as
the county had more than double the
number of points of the nearest COM
petitor.
County Agent MacSppadden says
that the results of the showing made
by the county in the fair is an indica-
ton of the growing diversification of
farming in the county. This was evil
denced. he pointed out, by the excel
lent showing made in the varied
and especially in corn and
The county vegetable dis
play was virtually the same as shown
here at the Community fair.

Gus counties, a change was made in
the system whereby the percentage
system was used, Cascade receiving

from the county.
Mr.. Talhott's winnings were, as
usual, many and varied, he receiving
two first, four second and one third
awards on irrigated sheaf forage
crops and grasses entered, as follows;
First on Grimm alfalfa and timothy;
second on hog millet, red top clover,
bronze grass and orchard grass, and
third on slender wheat, as well as TAX
ing third place for the best general
display of sheaf grasses. In threshed
irrigated entries Mr.. Talbot won
third on Dicklow wheat and fourth on
white oats, and on dry land threshed
entries he won second on two row bar
ley On irrigated sheaf grains he won
third on Marquis wheat and second on
Emnerson- or 60-day oats. In the dry
land sheaf grain class he won fourth
on white oats.
Two of the three awards carrying
special premiums for timothy seed
also came to the Belt Valley, the
Rutherford ranch getting first and the
ranch third places. James M.
entry of gallon of alfalfa
seed won second place.
With entries in but very few di-
the Belt Boys and Girls club
workers captured very creditable list
Of prizes, Elmer Gray, who carried off
the Cascade county fair honors, taking
many prizes in the garden club ex-
hibits at the big fair. Elmer was the
big winner among the club members
and besides winning first place in the
general vegetable exhibit, won one
first, four second and three third
awards, as follows: Third on table
Beets, second on tomatoes, third on
cabbage, third on table carrots, sec
md on white onions, first on peppers.
second on cucumbers and second on

Judith Basin County to DiOide
Road Funds on Equitable Basis
Under q System Just adopted

The benefits of an agricultural
county over county with large in
dustrial center holding the balance OF
the voting strength, as is the case in
Cascade, is being demonstrated in
several ways up in Judith Basin coun-
ty, but it is in the division of the road
fund that the rurual residents Of our
neighbors see the greatest benefit. In
the new county the road fund is di-
vided between the various districts on
a basis of the taxable valuation and
the money used on the roads of those
districts. This system has just been
adopted by Judith Basin county, and
the assessors office, under instruc-
tions from the board of county com
has just completed the
figuring of the valuations of the five
road districts in the county, which
figures will be used in the future as
a basis for dividing the road funds.
Heretofore the funds have been di-
vided in haphazard maner, allowing
opportunity for discrimination in the
The basis used hereto
fore was the miles of graded road in
each district, and may perhaps ac-
count for the large amount Of work

creek, as well az affording an outlet
to the Gray ranch. All preliminary
work has been completed with the ex-
ception of drafting the specifications,
and it is expected that bids win be
called for shortly.
When asked as to the present stat
utes of the proposed Orr coulee road,
which would eliminate the present
steep and dangerous grade leading out
of Belt to the Willow creek section,
Mr.. Day said that the matter was
ready for condemnation proceedings
against the two property owners who
refuse to convey right-ofway to the
county, and that it was expected the
condemnation suit would be filed
shortly It is not probable that con-
struction work can be commenced un-
I'll next spring. az the county already
has considerable new road work under
way, Mr. Day said
Belt Valley times. [volume] (Armington, Mont.) 1894-1977, 1922-10-05

which has been done in some districts
and but very little. in others.
A very accurate estimate of the
amount of road funds each district
should have received this year can
be obtained from the following fig
ures by taking 80 per cent. or the
taxable valuation, applying the road
levy of 3ik mills, deducting 80 per
cent for delinquent taxes and also
$4,000 for the general read fund.
The assessed valuations as stated
by the assessor are as follows.
Geyser district $6, ,3S6,372; Stanford
Windham district s6.832,897; Bench
nd-Moccasin district s5,707,7
Utica district s4,237, ,377;
Straw Buffalo district S3,787, 1886.
Taking into consideration unused
balances in some of the districts, the
funds this year were supposed to
have been divided. with Geyser re-
ceiving s5200; Stanford -Windham,
$4,000; Benchland- -Moccasin, $1,000;
Vi tica, s470O; Straw Buffalo,
$4,000 These figures were given out
by the county surveyor last spring
previous to the commencement of the
road work as the probable amount
ZACH district would receive.

ROAD HOG PUSHES FORD
OFF GRADE AND RUNS ON

J. e. Healey, while returning home
from Great Falls a week ago last
evening, came across a Ford touring
car in the ditch just at the Boyle
ranch on Box Elder creek. Stopping
to see if they could be of any aid, the
Hcaley party found that none of the
occupants of the overturned car were
injured. They were told that the
Ford had been struck by big car,
the driver of which did not turn out
in the least in passing, though the
Ford had been brought to the very
edge of its side of the road when the
big car was seen approaching. Not
stopping to see what damage had been
done, the larger car continued on its
way. Many drivers seem to be gain
ing the idea that roads are built for
them and that others have no right to
travel them.
