BOZEMAN PRAISED
FOR CONTRIBUTION
TO STATE ASSETS
Editorial Also Contains Favor
able Comment on GaIlatin's
Big Annual Fair

Sincere praise for BOzeman and
the Gallatin valley fair is contained
in an editorial which appeared in the
Butte Miner Of Wednesday, Septem-
Der %.
Credit for taking the steps that led
to the establishment Of a big new
industry in Montana is given the
Sweet Pea city, the work being char
acterized as ga real achievement"
and kind words are said anent the
size and general excellence Of the
exposition held here last week.
The Miners editorial reads:
Gin order to obtain matured ex-
hibits for agricultural fairs in Mon
tana it is necessary to hold SUCH
shows later in the season than is the
case in the central states.
"Thus here September and the first
Of October are the prevailing months
for such expOsitiOns.
To-day the Gallatin County fair
will open at BOzeman and in times
past this show won a wide reputation
for the quantity and quality of its
exhibits.
'This fair is far more elaborate
than the average county fair in this
state, for it has one of the most pop
ulous. extensive and fertile valleys in
the United States from which -
draw.
"In truth this show is very much
along the lines of an agricultural and
livestock exposition with horse racing
and other entertainment features
thrown in.
at is a big fair comparable with
the state show held in Helena anC
the Midland Empire fair held at Bill
+ lings.

100 POUNDS OF ORE
DUG FROM POCKET
NETS MINER $3.50

BUTTE@One hundred pounds
Of ore, taken from a 3-inch streak
only two feet before the sur
face, netted him $3.50, declares
John Hegland, Oldtime miner and
prOspeCtOr, who since May has
been operating in the district
northwest of Stemple, in Lewis
and Clark county.
Hegland returned to Butte Sun
day with numerous pieces of
quartz in which free gold could
plainly be seen. He said the "pOck-
ct" contained only 100 pounds of
ore, but considers the sum received
for it ample pay for his five
months of work.
In 1898, with George Nye and
others, Highland made a stake in
the KlOndike, but later lost $780,
900 in one Idaho mining venture.
He was one of the early prospect
Ors in the GOldfield, New, district.
He sold one claim there for $3.50 DOG

GARDINER SHOWS
BIGGEST INCREASE

Government figures credit the
Northern Pacific and Gardiner gate
way, the northern entrance to yell
lowstone park, with showing the
greatest rail travel increase of any
approach to the famous American
summer playground and wonderland.
Figures from the department Of the
interior at Washington have just been
received by A. B. Smith, passenger
traffic manager Of the Northern Pa
cific, showing that up to August 81
Of this year the Norehern Pacific had
carried 14,443 people to Gardiner gate
way as against 1926 for the same
period last year-an increase of more
than 5000.
The great increase in preference
for Gardiner as an entrance has been
attributed by officials to the planned
trip which permits visitors to go in
by Gardiner gateway and out by Cody
road. This brings the marvels Of
Yellowstone to the eyes in a logica'
order and with an ever increasing IN
terest which reaches a climax at The
Grand Canyon Of the YellOwstOn'
and at the Cody road.
A total of 141,526 people visited
Yellowstone park this season by raj
or motor.
With the closing of the park Of
September 20, a new high travel mari
was established, and Northern Pa
cific officials are already laying plan
for handling an even larger tOuris
traffic via Gardiner when it reopen
next June.

FEEDER CATTLE
EXPECTED To BE
In Big DEMAND
Falling Off Next Year, However,
Is Forecast; High Quality
Production Vital

Montana stOckmcn may expect a
strong demand for feeder cattle this
fan and a falling off Of that demand
a year from now, according to a pre-
liminary report Of live stock spe-
ciahsts On the beef cattle situation
in Montana.
This view Of the market situation
Is expressed in the report Of the live
stock Investigations that have been
conducted by the bureau OF agricul-
tural economics and the bureau of
animal industry IN cooperation with
state agricultural colleges in WyOm-
ing, North and South Dakota, and
Montana, during the summer.
The report emphasizes the need for
the production Of high quality cattle
to supply the feeder demand and to
secure better prices on the beef mar
ket. 1t says in part:
'The outlook for a big corn crop
this year and the known shortage of
pigs in the corn belt, justifies the ex-
pectatiOn Of a good demand for feeder
cattle this fall. Next year, in all
e probability, there will be a larger
number Of pigs produced in the corn
belt, and with a normal crop of corn
the demand for feeder cattle in 1926
win be smaller than this year. It
probably will be good business this
fall to Gull COWS and heifers and rC
sell steers a little more closely thar
usual in order to have somewhat
fewer cattle to sell next year at this
time.
"The culling suggested will place
ranchmen in better positions to ad
just their production to a quality
rather than quantity basis, which ha.
been the biggest factor in bringing
repeat orders from corn belt feeder
for certain range cattle brands. A.
an illustration, a certain ranchman il
this r who produces good qualit!
feeder cattle has established such
high reputation in the corn belt tina
a certain feeder there has bought hi
cattle three years in succession be
cause he knows that they will max
profitable gains in the feed lot. Man.
similar instances were found whicl
thus illustrate the value of quality.
The preliminary report Of the Ev
stock Investigations from which tn
above is taken is to be followed by
complete report of the findings whe
all the data are in. The marke
views given are based upon the cOndi
tiOns found in northwestern states a
viewed in the light of national faC
tors influencing livestock demands.

GALLATIN GAS CO..
IS PUBLIC UTILITY

HELENA-Tha the Gallatin Nat
ural Gas company, although not dis
tributing at retail under its own
name, is a public utility and subject
to the commissions supervision, is
the gist Of a ruling made by the
Montana public service commission.
The company is incorporated in
Delaware. It transports natural gas
from Wyoming into Montana where
it delivers to the Billings Gas COM
pany, a Montana corporation, which
distributes at retail in Billings, From
berg, Bridger and Laurel. Certain
farmers and others outside the cities
also are served. Payment to the Gal
latin company is made by the Bill
lings company on the basis CT Gus
toners meter readings.
The hearing developed that the
Gallatin company owns all but five
shares of the $500 shares issued in
the Billings company. Basing its
decision on an Ohio case, the Mon
tana commission says that where by
process OF incorporation, the owner
ship of a property is nominally d.
dived between two or more corpora,
lions and is, in fact, the same, the
business of said corporations is but
a single enterprise and dedication Of
the property Of a nominal owner
thereof to the public service is at
tributable to the real owner thereof
and is a dedication of the entire prop
erty involved in the common enter
prise"
The commission further held tina
the operations of the Gallatin com
pany are local in nature, and tina
consequently it may be regulated b,
local authority.

Der Of Commerce, in one of the most
important changes to its regulation in
Its 40 years Of existence, took volun-

their board of directors, at any time
upon 10 hours advanse notice, to de-
clare that an emergency exists. Dur
ing the emergency the directors may
provide that there shall be no trading
in futures of any specified grain at
prices five per cent, or some higher

age closing price of the day before. A
similar rule was put into effect by the
Chicago board Of trade.

"Our people have had all the war.
all the taxation, and all the military
service that they want"

1.-THE results of the war will be lost
and we shall only be entering a period
of preparation for another conflict"

mind Of the peoples Of the earth.
Begin at Home, He Urges.
'If our country is to have any posi-
