THE WORLD

Manila-The Philippine legisla-

recall Governor General Leonard
Wood.
Los Angeles - Checks signed by
Jack Pickford, in the possession OF
bootleggers under arrest, has result
ed in the subpoenaeing of the actor
before the federal grand jury.
Neutrality-suspicious. T. Small,
Washington correspondent, says that
there will be four presidential candi-
dates in the field next year, the
straight republican nominee, the
straight democratic nominee, Henry
Ford, Independent, and a farmer
labor candidate.
New York - Judge Gary of the
United States steel corporation has
called the leaders of the steel in
dustry together with the idea of put
ting into effect the eight hour day

men are working IL hours, but are
getting extra pay for it.
Paris-An unmarried French girl
has stirred France by sending out an

of the failing French birth rate, and
the dearth of manageable men since
the great war.

wells drilled in the north field, the
Observation-Disclosures No. l has
just been brought in dry. Just one
bloomer out of eight. That's a
record for operators to shoot at,
not only in Montana but in any
other field in the country. 1t is by
far the greatest consecutive record
in Montana.
Up to the time the Huestis No.
| was completed, the Mid-Northern
had six producers out of six wells
drilled in the Kevin-Sunburst field.
The delivery of the Huestis, a rank
outsider, being located in 1882
west, could not be solved and ruin
ed the 1000 per cent batting aver
age of a company that needed only
100 acres in the big north field to
make a record for producing wells
that will likely stand as long as the
field lasts. Howling No. 5 which
came in last week, is producing
about 100 barrels a day. The 100
per cent record was not the only
feature of the Mid-Northern's OPP
erations. 1t also enjoys the dis
tinction of bringing in the premier
producer of the field. The Mid
Northern-Howling No. 3, in the N.
quarter of the N. E. quarter of
section 1852, brought in more
than a month ago, is credited with
a flush production of 1000 barrels
and is doing something over 5OOI
barrels at the present time.
On account of having to shut in
the wells in the Kevin-Sunburst
field because of the inability of the
pipe line to take the production, the
wells there were injured, to some
extent, and considerable cleaning
out will be necessary before pro-
duction will get back to where it
would have stood if it had not been
necessary to completely shut off
the flow. The Mid-Northern's pro-
1uction in that field is now around
300 barrels per day, and this comes
an 8O-acre tract.

81 TEACHERS ON
PENSION ROLLS
MORE WILL BE ADDED WHEN
They SHALL HAVE SERVED
225 MONTHS TEACHING
Must Have Taught School for %
Years in State to be Eligible for
Pension; Money Comes from Eel
low Teachers.

There are 80 teachers of Montana
on the pension rolls in. accordance
with the pension act passed by the
1915 legislature. Since the pensions
were inaugurated eight who were eli
glble and who were granted pensions
have died. There are Is applications
for pensions approved, meaning that
this number will be added to the PEN
sion roll as the respective applicants
reach in point of service the required
225 months of teaching.
The Montana law provides that to
be eligible for a pension, a teacher
must have been engaged in the pro-
fession 25 years, or rather % terms
of nine months each, or a total of
225 teaching months. AT least 80 of
these months must have been taught
in Montana. There is no age qualifi-
cation, an amendment proposing this
having failed at the last legislative
assembly.
Pension funds are derived from as
sessments of a dollar a month levied
on the salaries of the 5000 Montana
teachers. 1t is said that there is no
direct cost attached to the state for
the pension. If a teacher, having
taught 225 months, has contributed
$500 from her salary to the pension
fund upon retirement she
$500 a year, or $50 a month, payable
quarterly. If upon retirement she
has not contributed $500 the balance
is deducted from her pension allow
until the $500 has been paid,
when she receives the full $50 a
month. She cannot engage in teach
ing after retirement without waving
the pension during the time she is
teaching, but she may take other en-
to augment her financial
revenues. 1t is stated that the aver
age amount paid in by teachers ask
ing pensions has been about $50 to
date.
The pension board is composed of
Superintendent Trumper, State Urea
surer Junod and Attorney General
Rankin.

Finds Shrine Pin in Trout

Alex Walker, of Butte, is exhibit
ing to his friends a gold Shrine badge
which he extracted from the stomach
of a three-pound trout he caught IN
the Big Hole river.
The badge is in a good state OF
preservation. 1t is of the pennant
type and sometime, undoubtedly, was
pinned on the lapel of some worthy
Shriner's coat. The pin part is gone
and the badge, in its present form,
closely resembles a Colorado spinner,
which may account for the trout nav
ing swallowed it.
How long the badge had been IN
the trout's interior is an interesting
question which possibly might De
solved by the Shriner who once own
ed the badge, should he be capaple
of now identifying it.

FISCHER & PAGENKOPF,
LOCAL |. III. C. DEALERS,
MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT

The Harvester Company's attitude
in regard to the petition just filed
against it by the government in the
United States District Court at ST.
Paul, Mimi, is set forth in a state
ment by Alexander Legge, President
OF the company, which has been re-
ceived by B. B. Reppert, Branch Man
ager of the International Harvester
Company Of America in Madison, Wis
Mr.. Legge's statement says:
This petition is a continuation OF
the suit brought against us eleven
years ago. Upon the hearing Of that
case, held more than nine years ago,
the Harvester Company was acquit-
ted, both by the finding Of the court
and by the attorney generals admis-
sion, of any wrongful dealing or I'M
tair practices toward customers Or
competitors, but, to insure the fullest
competition, decree was entered In
1918 requiring the company to sell to
competitors certain complete lines of
harvesting machinery, and to limit its
sales repres entatiOn to a single dealer
in any one town.
That decree further provided that
at the end Of test period which has
now expired the government might
ask the court to determine whether or
not the free competition contemplated
by the Sherman law exists in the
farm implement industry This step
the government has now taken.
AS we understand it, the sole issue
raised by the present petition relates
TO competitive conditions with re-
spect TO harvesting machines only. 1t
does not charge the company with I'M
duly raising the price of harvesting
machinery to the grave injury of the
American farmer, as was charged in
1912. but it does charge that the COM
pany has been unduly depressing the
price Of harvesting machinery par
ticularly since 1920, to the injury of
its competitors.
Without attempting to argue our
case at this time, it seems fair to say
that the unfortunate condition in
which manufacturers of harvesting
machines, and in fact Of all other
farm implements, find themselves, is
due to the serious business depression
that affected the entire country be-
ginning in the fall of 1920.
During the last few years the
whole farm implement industry has
been in an abnormal and distressing
situation which directly reflects the
situation of the farmer. High costs
of labor, material and transportation
have burdened it with high manufac-
turing costs, while on the other hand
low prices for agricultural products
have left the farmer unable to buy his
normal and needed requirements of
farming machinery.
I'VE are confident that the hearing
on the present petition will clearly
show that the Harvester Company is
not in any way responsible for these
conditions in the farm implement in
dustry. Prices of harvesting ma
are the result of vigorous
competition, exactly the kind of COM
petition which the Sherman law was
enacted to preserve, and are fairly
comparable with the prices of other
which the government
comedies were fixed by normal COM
petition"

Wuchet, Ohio State University, says:
Ordinary rations are far from supplying
the mineral requirements of hogs. None
of the common grain feeds or their by
products contain sufficient amount of
mineral matter The sooner hog feeders
and breeders recognize that MINERALS
ARE A FEED and not tonic or some
thing extra which needs only to be fed Dc-
casionally then we are going to have bet
ter boned hogs; fewer going down in the
back and in their feet"
FOR FEEDING HOGS
An Ohio experiment shows hogs not fed
minerals gained 1910 less and required
1850 more grain than those fed Minerals.
Other Experimental Station tests prove
minerals increase rate o. gains 309o and up
decreased feed requirement 1870 and up.
