REPUBLICAN TARIFF
PROTECTS FARMING
NEW TARIFF LAW SPECIALLY
EXEMPTS ALL IMPORTANT
THINGS USED ON FARM

Washington, Jan. 14.-(Special Cor
Observation-Disclosures farmers are
indebted to a foreign manufacturer
for facts refuting one of the false
statements of Democratic leaders in
the United States. This manufacturer.
who makes a cream separator in Bel
GUM and offers it for sale in the
United States, gives prominence to
the declaration that it is duty free"
He wants the American farmer to
know that this implement can be
bought in Belgium without paying any
tariff.
Thus is emphasized the bald lie so
industriously circulated by the Demo-
Gratis who have been broadcasting the
statement that the Republican tariff
does the farmer no good but imposes
a tax on everything he buys. AS a
matter of fact, the Republican tariff
law specially exempts from duty the
most important things the farmer
must use in his operations.
Our foreign trade records show that
there are immense quantities of agri-
cultural products in Europe. South
America, Australia, South Africa and
, Canada, seeking entrance into the
United States. Considerable quaint
l ties of such products are now coming
l in, but the quantity is but a small
fraction of what would come in if it
were not for the protective duties
e levied by the Republican tariff upon
d agricultural products from foreign
countries. Butter and cheese, eggs,
wheat, wool, vegetable oils and meat
products are among the commodities
which American farmers sell in the
home market by the aid of a protec.
tive tariff.
But let us look at the provisions Of
the Republican tariff law on the sub
ject of duties on things the farmer
I must buy. Here are a few quotation
with paragraph noted:
Paragraph 1904. (Free) Agricultur

MONTANA MAY SOON
PRODUCE PAPER
BOOK OF STATE DEPARTMENT
SUGGESTS PAPER MILL AS
DESIRABLE INDUSTRY

That the state of Montana, with
its millions Of feet Of dead timber
and it's almost unlimited supply Of
waste straw, seems splendidly adap-
ted to the manufacture of certain
kinds of paper stock, wrapping paper
and pasteboard packing boxes and
cartons, is the gist Of a survey of in
dustrial possibilities which has been
made by the state department of agri-
culture and reviewed in the forthcOm-
ing booklet by c. D. Greenfield, Jr.,
who recently resigned as secretary of
the division of publicity.
In the resources required and the
market available Montana has the
qualifications, the author declares, and
continuing, he states:
Products in Great Demand
"To be successful, however, the
manufacturing processes probably
would have to be carried to the point
of making the product ready for i'm
mediate use, and not selling it to dis
tant paper-gOods plants, otherwise the
marketing advantages gained from 10
cation would be lost. The available
demand is in the i-ntermOuntain states
for newsprint from newspaper pub
fishers, egg case filters from poultry
farms, ice cream cartons, butter pack
ages, and wrapping paper. This mar
ket is now supplied from eastern or
Pacific coast points.
'In the manufacture of all grades of
paper except the heavy board suitable
for packing, egg-fillers, ETC., several
basic materials besides straw are es-
sential. The straw fiber is short, Civ
ing a soft paper with the tensile
strength. For tougher paper, essen
tial for most purposes, wool pulp is
mixed with the straw. Corrugated
board, for instance, for making heavy
packing boxes, u~tilizes strawboard for
the inner corrugated layer that gives
resistance to crushing loads, but re-
quires a strong thin paper made of
better material for the outer sheets.
Ice cream carton, butter packages and
Christmas boxes are made from chip
board which is sometimes obtained by
working old paper and cotton waste
into the stiff board used in making
ordinary boxes.
Montana Has the Material
"Both the raw and process materials
required for paper are found in Mon
tana-wOod pulp from western Mon
tana, straw from the agricultural dis
tricts, coal and limestone from a score
of counties, sulphuric acid from the
smelters. Gypsum, used as a filler, il
found in several counties. BentOnite
used as sizing, is reported from on,
county, and barite, used in the sam,
way, is found in four counties.
"In one district alone, on the ives
fork of the FIathead river, the Unite,
States forest service estimates Their
are 400, OOO,O 900 to 500, 900 900 feet O
spruce, white fur, balsam and lOdg
pole pine suitable for the making Q
pulp"
An old-timer, who is familiar wit
conditions in this section of the stat,
recently said that in his opinion ther
is at the present time enough dea
timber in the Yellowstone Nation;
park, now a positive fire menace 4;
well as an unsightly eye-sore, to SUI
ply the paper needs of the entire stat
of Montana for the next hundrC
years.

CITIZENS MILITARY TRAINING
CAMPS APPLICATIONS

The quota set by the War De-
partment for the three Citizens Mil
tary Training Camps to be held in
he Seventh Corps Area, was over
subscribed on June 30th, full
month before the camp opens on
August LIST. The Seventh Corps
Area embraces the states of North
and South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas and
Missouri.
On July 1st active recruiting for
the camps ceased but applications
will still be received and those APP
plying from now on will be placed
on a waiting list.
400 young men between the
ages of II and 81 will enjoy the
benefits of the training and the 80
days in the open.
Neither the young men nor their
parents are put to any expense for
the 80 days camp, for the United
States Government defrays the cost,
by providing free railroad fare,
food, equipment, uniforms, sheltes,
laundry, and dental and medical
care while in camp.

CALLS FOR BIDS ON
rs MILES OF GRADE

Charles NJ Babcock, state high
way commissioner, this week called
for bids July % on seven state
trunk route Improvement projects
estimated to cost more than $780,
900. The list includes rs miles of
grading, 6 of paving, 80 of guard
fail and two bridges, located on diff
ferent sections of the 7,000-mile
trunk highway system. The i'm
provements are to be paid for with
motor vehicle tax funds and federal
highway aid, but are made possible
this year by county reimbursement
bond issues.
Commissioner Babcock called at
tention to the fact that practically
all of the work for which bonds are
being issued is of character which
will last at least twenty years and
much of it longer-far OUTLYING the
bonds. Sinking fund provisions are
being made to take up the bonds at
maturity, he added, and all will be
paid with interest from motor veh-
Gle tax receipts.
Without bond issues, he continued,
most of the improvements would
have to wait. Under the "pay-as-
you-use" policy, however, present
taxpayers are to receive fairer value
Cor their money than otherwise
would be possible. The commission
ar repeated that the bond plan re-
luces the cost of financing highway
improvements because state bonds
draw interest at a lower rate than
hat the state collects on the funds
it loans.

OUR TIMBER IS
RAPIDLY GOING.
McNARYvCLARKE FORES TRY
BILL EXPECTED TO
HELP MATTERS.

Results of an interesting survey
of just where we stand in the mat
ter Of timber resources, were re-
Gently made public by Senator Nc
Nary says the News Tribune, while
the McNary- Clarke forestry bill was
under consideration.
This country once had 100000
900 acres of virgin timber, accord
ing to figures. Today it has but
138,000,000 acres. About $1,000
900 acres have been logged off and
completely denuded of timber. About
250,000,000 acres are in stumpage
and various stages of second growth
The rest, presumably, is under cul-
tivation.
Our remaining timber is being
consumed at the rate of about 49,
100000 acres year. Forest fires
take nearly half of this, or 5000, 900
acres, and the rest is cut.
Our annual consumption of lum-
Der is put at 10000, 100000 feet a
year including what is destroyed by
fire and insect pests. And the an
nual growth, from both natural and
artificial planting, is hardly a fifth
of that total.
Obviously that condition cannot
long continue without an acute
lumber famine.
Up to the present time, timber
farming has not proved profitable
A timber crop cannot pay taxes and
interest charges during the time
necessary for it to mature and be
sold for anything resembling pro-
fit. Artificial planting, therefore,
has been done on very small scale,
and it's results are not likely to be
an important factor for many years
to come.
The hope lies in natural reforesta-
tion accompanied by protection from
the fire menace and a sufficient re-
duction of the tax burden to allow
the second growth timber to come
to maturity.
The foundations for such a ma
tional forest policy are laid in the
McNary- Clarke BILL 1t aims to get
results by increased fire protection.
by a careful study of forest taxation
methods, by the distribution of seed
hngs, and by the creation of addi-
tional forests. Doubtless it is not
the final solution, but it is a step
in the right direction.

Fourth of July Game.
The hardware team made the 4th
of July game disgusting exhibition
to the largest turnout of the season.
The league games should be favored
by such crowds.
Hoefier provided one of the thrills
of the farce by driving the bali
over the right field fence. The pu-
luth pitcher tried his best but one
man cannot play a ball game. Du-
luth did not know a single thing
about baseball Probably they knew
that when the ball was hit they
should run but that constituted the
extent of their knowledge of the
pastime-and they showed it.
Ely took it as a grand lark and
were so tired out that they failed to
make a run in the final chapter.
Call played his first game for Ely.

HEALTHY WEEK END
FOR BALL TEAM.
GIANOTTI AND KOWALKE PITCH
IMPRESSIVE WINS OVER
DULUTH AND VIRGINIA.

After a practice tilt with the
Kelly-Howe-Thompson team OF Du-
luth on the glorious 4th, Ely autoed
to Virginia Sunday and was forced
to flash its best form of the season
to rake in an uphill battle 4-3. In
the game with the cripples from
Lake Superior Ely ran wild on the
bases and the hardware outfit ran
wilder" in chasing the ball so aid
ing a IA victory for Ely.
Virginia fans and loyal Ely back
ers were treated to a typical big
league game at the Queen City,.
If Ely continues to show the form
they struck Sunday Hibbing, Marble
and Chisholm are in for hot time.
A glance at the box score reveals
20 assists for Ely without a single
customary bingle; happening
which, heretofore, has not been
associated with the local team. An
other respectful stare says that Ely
converted five hits into four loom
ing runs. The box score has as
sumed the proportions of "Grime's
Fairy Tales, but then the fans
like fairy stories of this sort. With
the team playing at this clip the
local box office man need not blush
with shame as he collects the half
dollars, indeed he would have every
right to become vexed if a good
sized crowd did not turn out.
With the team playing this sort
of ball no pitcher should lose and
Kowalke pitched as creditably as
his teammates fielded. Only six
hits and two bases on balls were
garnered off his delivery. He also
came across with seven strikeouts
and eliminated the good afternoons
work by holding the "Orediggers
without a safe hit in the last three
rounds.
Virginia sent the hopes of its
hackers soaring when they slapped
Kowalke's ball rather hard in the
opening sessions and crossed the
plate three times while Anthony
was pitching shut-out ball. A base
on balls, a timely single and good
base running gave them counter
in the second. Their last two ruas
were hurried across the plate in the
fourth on two doubles and single.
This ended their run getting with a
total of four on the score board.
That Ely played with fight, vim
and vigor is best shown by account
ing the manner in which they tied
the score. With two men out Kowalke
singled, he being the first Ely man
to reach first base and scored when
Hoefier crashed out an opportune
triple to put Ely in the running. H.
Chinn who held his own on second
base delivered with a single allow
ing Hoefer to scamper across the
pan. A base on balls forced him
to second from where he scored
when Lindbeck poked out safety.
Lambert sprained one of his
fingers in the third inning and was
forced from the game. Moravitz
went in to catch and B. Lindbeck
took over right field.
The winning run came in the
seventh when Moravitz got around
by his single, an error and a fly out.
