RICHLAND FARMERS
SHIP 40 BEEVES
TO ST. PAUL MARKET

Sidney, April 2O.-Frank and Ches-
ter Grow of McCone Heights, south
of Lambert, will in the near future
ship to the St. Paul market what is
said to be one of the finest shipments
Of beef ever sent out of the state of
Montana. This shipment will consist
Of 40 head Of yearling calves, which
have been corn fed for the last six
months.
These animals, which ordinarily
would weight about 400 pounds, now
weight from 700 to 900 pounds and
will go on the markets as "baby
beef at fancy price. This shipment
It is estimated will bring between
$1,000 and $500 in st. Paul.
If this experiment proves a sue
cess other farmers here plan to raise
a great deal of this class Of beef in
the next few years, as the corn crop
in this section of Montana is becom-
ing larger each year.

ROOSEVELT FARMERS
NOT WORRIED OVER
GRASSHOPPER MENACE

Poplar, April 17.-From the re-
ports and observations gathered dur
ing the last few days by the county
agent there is not much concern over
the grasshopper situation in Roose-
velt county this year, though the next
few weeks viii give farmers a def
mite idea Of the number Matching
here.
From the reports it is apparent
that, except in a few places, there
were few grasshoppers here last fall
at egg laying time.
ct viii be well to watch quite
closely for the pests this spring. and
if any Matching beds are found, get
to work on them with poison before
they leave the BEDS, says the county
agent.

sOx AND STATISTIX

ChicagO.-There are men in
the country to whom $12 for
pair socks is like 25 cents, said
Judge Edgar A. Jonas in decid-
ing that Joseph Letter, Chicago
and Washington capitalist, must
pay bill of 1882 for III pairs
of socks. The learned Judge add
ed, ''TO me or to any ordinary
person $12 a pair is too much"
The only kick of the million
= aire seems to have been that the
= expensive fOOtgear faded, which
may have been due to the exces-
sive washing required by this
OIympian who changes his socks
twice a day. Letters order, ac-
cOrding to testimony, called for
= ten dozen pairs to be filled re-
: gardless of cost. And the store
manager added: ''Why we've sold
mems hose at $25 a pair and
women's at $780,"

TRIBUNAL IJPHOLDS
RETROACTIVE LEVY
UPON INHERITANCE
MURRAY ESTATE DECISION OR
DERS LOWER COURT ALLOW
SURVEY TO ASCERTAIN SUM
DUE.

Helena, April 21-The retroactive
feature of the new inheritance tax
law is upheld by the supreme court
OF Montana IN an opinion handed
down by that court Saturday in the
matter of the petition of Attorney
General w. d. Rankin against the
district court of Silver Bow county
and Judge Joseph r. jackson fer a
writ of supervisory control in con-
nection with the estate of the late
James M. Murray, millionaire min
ing man who died in California. MAY
IL, 1921, leaving considerable proper
ty in Montana.
Sought Appraiser
In connection with the administer
ing of this estate the attorney gen
eral had filed aspetitiOn in the court
of Silver Bow county asking for the
appointment of a special appraiser to
determine the amount of inheritance
tax due the state under the prOvi-
sions of the law of 1921, which was
re-enacted by the Legislative assembly
of 1928 and made applicable to es-
tates of all decedents who died since
/ April 1, 1921, (which estates remain
Cndistributed on the date when the
act takes effect"
/ By order of February is, 1924, the
district court denied the petition
whereupOn the attorney general in
stituted proceedings in the supreme
court for writ of supervisory con-
troll.
The retroactive feature of the law
was made the basis of the attack by
] nNrrr,r01 f0-. L
this part of the law is upheld by the
supreme court in its decision which
was prepared by Associate Justice
A. L. Galen. the opinion saying:
Holds Intent Clear
I'm the absence of express consti-
tutional inhibition, the enactment oil
retrospective income tax laws have
/ quite generally been upheld by the
courts. 1t is clear that the legisla.
ture intended that the new enact
ment should relate back to the effec.
tive date of the first act, so as to in.
clude from such date the estates o1
j deceased persons remaining undistri
buted.
We have no special constitutional
limitation prohibiting retroactive leg
lslaton, and in the absence thereo.
the act in question must be sus
tained. Our codes recognize retro
active legislation, when, as with tn,
statute before US, it is expressly S,
declared
'The district court of Silver Bow
county and the judges thereof ar

The Longworths also were in this

It is altogether fitting then, that

The cradle has been standing
empty 10 years waiting for the

But the prophecies were ineau-

BOARDER BITES
HUBBY'S FINGERS
Tom Maxen and Wife Have
Trouble and the Board
er Intervenes.
BOTH ARE ARRESTED

Tony Maxen and his wife, who live
at 10 Victoria street, had a fight Sum
day afternoon at 1850 o'clock, and in
the midst of the excitement the board
err, Joe Sandrovich, stepped in between
the pair.
AS a rule the peacemaker or inter-
meddler is believed to be the one who
gets the blows or the worst end of it,
but in this case it was the husband
who took the drubbing.
Wife Arrested Husband.
Tony was arrested and brought down
to the police Office on his wife's COM
plant. HIS hand was bleeding pro-
fusely and the police, examining it,
found that the end of finger was
gone. Asked for particulars he said
that Joe, the boarder, had bitten it
off.
The police issued forth and arrested
Joe forthwith. Tony was considered
more of subject for medical atten-
ton and first aid was applied. The two
men and the complaining wife will APP
pear in the municipal court this
morning.
