Montana will establish itself
this year even more firmly as the
producer of the worlds best wheat.
Already a determining factor in
fixing the price of the top grade,
the state this fall is sending out
to the world a product hat grades
considerably above the crop of
1928. 1t was estimated recently
at the office of G.. III. Moran, state
grain Inspector, that Montana's
wheat crop will average / percent
above that of last year in protein
content.
Spring wheat graded by Inspector
Moran ranges in protein content from
10K to 1917 per cent, both of these
figures being extremes for the high
and low and not representative of the
average crop The correct figure
will be approximately mid-distant
between these extremes and from
the run of the grain now going
through the inspectors office, Mr..
Moran estimates that when the bal
ance is struck at the end of the
season the average will be a full
point above the 1928 mark. The
quality of winter wheat will be cor
respondingly high.
Testing for the protein content has
been carried in at the Great Falls in
spector's office during the last year,
following the installation of special
equipment for the work. The volume
of wheat handled this year is show
ing a pronounced increase over form
err seasons, Inspector Moran stated.
Nine hundred cars have been tested
thus far, in addition to the package
samples that are sent in.
With the threshing of the 1924
crop we'll advanced, estimates by
grain men on the states total yield
conform closely to the figures COM
piled earlier in the season. Unof-
ficial estimates of the yield in north
eastern Montana are running some
what higher than before harvest, and
if these are borne out by the final
figures it is regarded as probable
that the states crop will run sub
stantially above the ~pre-harvest estl-
Individual yields running up to
so bushels an acre are being reported
to Great Falls grain men from the
and other of the main
wheat districts, with 80 bushels rep
resenting the minimum yield, with
few exceptions. The Judith Basin,
as usual, is recording a large number
Of huge acre yields and northeastern
Montana is ranking high. The terri
tory between Great Falls and Belt
and the Conrad, Dutton and neigh
sections are maintaining high
averages.

to a place in the mountains where
is now the town of Phillipsburg
there they built a sufficiently
strong corral to withstand the at
tacks of the Indians.
In June, James, his brother and
two others started for Fort Bridg-
er. The rivers being high, they
were forced to raft across the Snake
and Big Hole. Reaching Fort
Bridger shortly after their supply
of dried meat was exhausted, they
stayed there a couple of weeks, and
then went to Camp Floyd, south
of Salt Lake, where they sold
horses to the soldiers.
After several years spent in trad
ing with emigrants, James and
Granville again returned to Deer
Lodge and engaged in mining.
This was in 1861. Among those
who came to Gold Creek in 1862,
were J. M. Bozeman, after whom
the city Of Bozeman was named,

Arab women of Palestine are keen
not only on social emancipation, but
on participation in politics.
"Take US out of insulting Sc

newspaper in Haifa. "Then we shall
in gratitude sacrifice our jewels, de-

fifteen dollars and provisions were
given him to expedite his going.
The next arrest had a more trag-
ic ending. Again it was for horse
stealing. Two men were taken
prisoners and a third shot while at
tempting to resist arrest. One of
the prisoners was acquitted, but
banished, and the other, having
been found guilty was hanged.
Granville Stuart says, "This was
the first execution in what is now
Montana" and it gave the name of
"Hangtown" to the town of Am
erican Fork.
When rich gold discoveries were
reported at Bannack, the Stuart
brothers left Gold Creek for the
new mines. They did not engage
in mining, however, but opened a
barber shop.
In the spring of 1868 a party
was organized by James Stuart to
explore and prospect the Yellow
stone country. 1t consisted of fif-
teen men. The names of two Of
these will ever be associated with
that of Montana, but for quite diff

Arab Women Demand
Removal of Wells and
Social and
Political Ere O nm

The stubborn conservatism of
the Mohammedan custom with re-
gard to the social isolation of the
women in Palestine may soon give
way before the movement launch
ed by Arab feminists for the re-
moval Of the veil. The Holy Land,
backward in many respects, is be-
hind such Moslem countries as
Turkey, and Egypt in breaking the
shack1es holding women in seclu-
sion.
The movement for the enfranchise-
ment of the Moslem women in Pal
estine is of recent origin and is trace
able to the influx of women from the
west, especially Jewish immigrants
coming to settle in their national
home.
AS the first step towards their en-
ancipation, the women demand &C.
clesiastical sanction for the removal
of the dark veil from their faces. If
such, flying in the face of age-long
custom does not win official approval,
some of the leading Arab women of
Palestine are determined to do what
their Moslem sisters did in Turkey,
where the veil has been entirely cast
off, or at least in Egypt, where only

as he owns real estate. The royalty deed is a part of the
abstract to title. None can deprice the royalty investor
of his holdings. The law safeguards him. Whenever
any oil is taken from the ground and marketed the
royalty owner-just as the Iandowner-GETS HIS
SHARE.
Q William bowling owned a farm in Kevin-Sun-
burst field. He did not believe in oil. He sold ALL
his royalty before any oil was found. His farm has
produced thousands of dollars worth of oil that would
have been his had he not sold. The thousands of dollars
worth of royalty oil has gone into the pockets of in
vestors who were wise enough to buy ROYALTIES.
They occupy the coveted place Of William How1ing on
pay day. Their checks come at the end of every thirty
days, as regularly as the month comes around.

the gold rushes of the Old West.

barrels of oil to the surface, he must give 121s barrels
to the landowner FREE OF COST OF PRODUCTION.
Not one cent does the landowner have to spend to get
his share of the oil. Because the landowner gets his
share of the oil without having to spend money to drill,
his share is said by the Standard companies to be equiv
aIent to FORTY-SEVEN PER CENT OF THE NET.
That is, the landowners profits are nearly as great as
those of the operator who spends the thousands and
hundreds of thousands to get the oil.
G The landowners share is called
OIL. He gets 121@ per cent of ALL the oil ever produced
on his land, be it produced this year or 100 years from
now. His right is perpetual. Likewise, he is able to esl
any part or all Of his royalty, as he chooses. Were an
investor to buy ALL of his royalty, the investor would
step into the shoes of the landowner. The landowner
would own the land, but he would not be entitled to any
of the oil. The royalty is the thing of value on an oil
structure.

Of his royalty for a LUMP SUM which will Immediately

sell any fraction Of his royalty. He gives a DEED there

Joy those evenings best, when few
others were our guests.
When many were present he said
little; taking no apparent interest
in what was going on about him.
His favorite seat-in fact the only
one I ever saw him occupy-was a
bench against a partition, at right
angles with the stone fireplace, and
close to it. There he would sit
gazing into the fire, and, as | have
said, when he had a small audience
he told us stories of his eventful
life in the Rockies, that held us
spellbound, and kept two little boys
who were in bed on the other side
of the thin partition, awake until
the stories we're ended.

that he was born in Harrison Co.,
March IA, 1882, and lat

when that state might have been
said to belong to the Indians.
In 1849 the elder Stuart went to
California, and three years later
made a second trip there, taking
with him his two sons, James and
Granville, and returning to Iowa,
left the boys in California. There
they engaged in different occupa-
lions, and managed to make a liv-
ing. In the second Rogue River

Ct 1t would follow that there
are two ways to participate in the
wealth that oil brings. One is to
buy a farm ON an oil structure and
wait until it is drilled. That is be-
yond the realm of possibility for the
average person who is anxious to
max his savings earn more than six
or eight per cent. The alternative is
to GO IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
THE LANDOWNERS. That is made
possible by investment in LAND

from landowners who have farms on
oil fields.

to emerge with substantial profits,
