Montana Is Leading
Northwest In Grain

Duluth-Better business conditions
in the northwest during the remain
ing months of 1926 than during the
same period in 1925 were forecast in
reports of Vice Chairman Reed at the
sixteenth annual meeting of the
Northwest Shippers advisory board
which concluded its sessions here last
week.
The predictions were made despite a
general outlook for lighter grain
crops in the northwest with the ex-
ception of Montana. They were made
before 125 representatives of rail
roads and shippers of grains anr mer-
chandise.
Reports from rural districts of
Minnesota and the Dakotas show light
! decreases in yield for grain product:
with a gain in Montana of 5,25O,OOC

PRAIRIE FIRE
NEAR HOMESTEAD

A prairie fire which started on the
Frar6vce quarter, 10 miles east OF
Homestead, did considerable damage
last Sunday. Evidently some passing
motorist dropped match or cigarette
in the dry grass along the roaosl9e. .l'
The wind which was blowing from the
northwest whipped the blaze along
for a distance Of over three miles. A
Moved furrow saved the adjoining
wheat fields but the blaze consumed
five stacks of hay owned by jim
Hammond and Magnus Peterson.
Some pasture land was burned before
the fire was put out by several people
on the farm of Bill Place.
Rut for the fact that the neighbor-
hood was aroused to the danger the
fire might have spread far and done
much damage to the wheat crop
Nuns Munscn was the first to star
to fight the blaze.

GOT IT WITHOUT FIGHTING
Ambassador Berenger, who was one
of those who a month ago sat in a
conspiratOry meeting to overthrow the
constitutional government and dis
solve parliament by the use of troops
in order to get the debt agreement
ratified, has accomplished that OBJ
iect without such military action. AT
ter being informed yesterday, official
ly by Poincare, that the debt agree
ment will be presented for ratifica
ton, he announced he would return to
his post at Washington.
To Call National Assembly
The French cabinet has approved
Poincare's project to establish a great
sinking fund to retire the national
defense bonds totalling $1,215,000,000.
It is intended to get the approval OF
this as a fundamental law of the ma
tional assembly, by having the senate
and the chamber of deputies meet
Jointly at Versailles.
The national assembly, which meets
at Versailles, consists OF the senate
and the chamber of deputies in joint
session. If they sit at Paris, these
| two bodies must act within the con-
stitution, but meeting jointly at Yer
sailles as the national assembly, they
have no restrictions whatever, anC
aside the constitution. 1t may wei
| be that if POincare has the deputie:
and senators we'll in hand when the!
meet at Versailles, that something
more than technical problems will b,
