Serving humanity like this
was ever an ungrateful Job.
The Indians didn't care for
American civilization because
they thought Columbus was a
big boob who didn't have any
home and wouldn't have had
sense enough to stay there
anyway.
Filipinos didn't want inde-
pendence because they thought
it interfered with their rights.
Europe doesn't care for base
ball because it bores, instead of
entertaining them. Those kind
of jokes make them sad.

the equator where the people

Judgment about attending the
second.
Possibly the Giants White
Sox combination didn't have the
right kind Of publicity-perhaps
the natives thought the Braves
and Athletics were present.
Those Piccadilly loafers all
had important business on the
afternoons the Americans play
ed ball. McGraw even offered
to change the hour of game
time to suit the monocalistic
temperament, but their faces
registered no excitement.
He would have been willing
to start the exhibitions at mid
night if he could have capti-
waited those blase sports who
don't like anything American
anyway, especially if it comes
from across the Atlantic.

CONGRESSMAN ATTEND
AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL

Washington, Feb. 4.-One of the
many present side-shows of the pres
ent session of Congress is an agri-
cultural school, with Chester C. Davis
Montana commissioner of agricul-
ture, and w. L. Stockton of Clarks-
ton, president of the Montana state
farm bureau federation, as instruct
ors. The students are congressman
interested in the McNary-Haugen bill
which provides for a fund of $780,
900, 900 to put into effect the pro-
gram advocated in Montana by the
Export Commission League of Mon
tana.
This bill has the active and en-
thusiastic support of Secretary Wal
lace and numerous congressional
leaders, among them Congressman
Haugen, father of the bill in the
house. Commissioner Davis and MI.
Stockton are regarded as among the
best informed men here as to the
workability of the Export Corpora
ton plan.
Anticipating that when the bill
comes up on the floor of the House
it will need defenders versed in mi
mute detail in all phases of the prop
osition, Congressman Scott Leavitt
suggested to Mr.. Haugen, who is the
chairman of the House Agricultural
committee, that friends of the meas
ure among the house membership
have informal discussions of it with
the Montana farm leaders, asking
every question that can conceivably
be raised against the plan. He APP
proved it, so now the Montanans are
spending a considerable part of their
time drilling congressman for the af-
firmative side Of the debates that
will start soon.

Dawes On Bank Matters

During the past several days Com
ptroller of the Currency Dawes and
members of the Montana congress
sional delegation have received many
kilograms from Montana people and
organizations urging that payment
of assessments against stockholders
in failed banks be stopped. Comptrol-
Ter Dawes states that receivers, in in
dividual cases, may make arrange
ments for postponement, but that to
let all obligations go without regard
to present ability to pay would be to
ignore the depositors' right to pro-
lection.
Commenting on his policy of not
letting politics enter into his appoint
ment of bank receivers, Mr.. Dawes
said his responsibility was not to po-
litical leaders, but to depositors,
many of whose life savings were at
stake. He makes these appointments
on the basis of the applicants record
rather than political endorsements.
Congressman Scott Leavitt, who
has been receiving many applications
for bank ~receiverships, has adopted
the policy of referring the letters to
Comptroller Dawes, with the expla-
nation to the correspondents that he
has nothing to do with the appoint
ments, which are non-political, and
not patronage. He has said he
thought they should not be political,
and that he heartily approves of the
comptroller's method Of making APP
p~ointments.

Large Local Demand
Exceeds Corn Supply

In spite Of the enormous yield of
corn in Roosevelt county this past
year, there is and always was a big
demand for this valuable crop. Most
farmers raised it with the idea of
marketing it in the form of livestock
but there were a large number who
raised it who did not have this means
of getting value received from it.
However, with the development Of
local marketing associations, feed
lots and the distribution of feeder
hogs, together with the enormous
demand by the Frye Cattle outfit,
all surplus corn was sold and twice
as much could have been sold at a
cash price as was available. These
facts, together with the fact that
hog production will increase this
year, and there will be a heavy de-
mand from local stockmen, leads US
to believe that there will be a larger
acreage Of 0 planted in 1924 than
in 1923.
The last year the Frye Cattle Co.
paid a number of growers fifteen
dollars per acre for the corn shocked
in the field, and offered a cash price
of 70 cents per bushel on the cob.
and were unable to get all they
wanted at these prices. With the
increased development of the live
stock industry both by the small
farmers and the large ones, it will
undoubtedly mean a large increase
in the value of farm production, and
a diversified acreage.-D. B. Noble.
