1.-THE man with vision now is
the man who will cash in" is the
prediction of Harry r.. Cunning
ham, vice president and general
mage of the Montana Life In
uranc company Of Helena, anent
the northwest.
"An Empire of Opportunity" is
the heading under which he makes
this forecast and gives the reasons
for 1t, in the May issue of The Mon
tana Life News. Mr.. Cunningham
writes:
"a veritable Empire of Opportun-
ity is the territory in which the Mon
tana Life Insurance Company oper-
ates-the northwest and the inter-
mountain regions, the Pacific north
west and glorious California. Daily
the bonds of modern life, expressed
through business and markets, draw
them closer together. More and
more, the northwest and the inter-
mountain regions are looking to the
markets, both foreign and domestic,
of California and the Pacific north
west In the disposal of their cattle
and hogs and grain; of their manu-
featured products-copper wire and
cable from Montana; rails and nails
and other iron and steel products
of Colorado. More and more the in
terror regions are drawing upon the
rapidly developing industries of the
Pacific coast for finished goods.
I'm the northwest and intermoun-
tain regions a permanent system of
agriculture is being evolved. Corn
and hogs and flax and dairy cows are
finding a place along with wheat.
This present development has its feet
on solid ground. Sheep are like
gold. Market authorities assert a
beef famine is impending. Capital
is looking this way. Metal mines are
being %reopened and new railroad on
struction resumed. The railroads
report more inquiries this past win
ter and spring from prospective set
tiers than any time since 1917. Ma
gaines are calling attention to the
opportunities that are open: witness
Bargain Day in Montana" the lead
ing article in a recent issue of the
Country Gentleman" The biggest
industrial program in the history Of
Colorado is under way-six develop
ments call for the expenditure Of
$38,000,0 900. Utah will have a sea-

1.-THE Pacific northwest is forging
ahead. Building construction is act
i've. Possessing more than half of
the total potential hydro-electric
power of the United States, and one
of the only two great timber stands
remaining in the world; a key to
the treasure-house of Alaska, stu
ated favorably to command its share
of the expanding markets of the
Orient, 1t is not to be wondered at
that Roger Babson predicts Wash
ington, Oregon and California are
to become "the richest and busiest of
48 states"
California, the wonder state of
sunshine and flowers, is ~contending
now with the hoof and mouth dis
ease. In the light of all that Califor-
MIA has achieved and of all that it's
amazing future holds in store for it,
the present situation is a mere an
noyance. California has the climate
and the sunshine to delight people;
1t has the that will create
work for them, and it has the energy,
enthusiasm and vision to keep push
Ing ahead.
"a lot Of people won't r~ealizesthat
prosperity is here, and is going to
continue, until it is too late for them
personally to profit.
1T is a rising market in Montana
Life territory, and the man with
Vision now is the man who will
cash In"
