TWO ELECTIONS COMING UP

Two elections, one in the city and one in School
District No. 45 are just ahead, when positions on
both the city council and the board of school trus-
tees are to be filled. No candidates have filed up to
date.
The cost Of maintaining the departments of the
city and the public schools accounts for by far the
greater part Of the taxes of the property owners Of
the city. Wolf Point has municipal Improvements
that are equaled by few if any cities of its size in the
state. The city is nearing the close of a period Of
rather steep taxes levied to pay for its modern i'm
looking to a period of relief. The city is now on a
cash basis and many hope it will be kept there.
District 45 has reason to be proud Of its schools
which compare f~avorably with any in the Northwest
Though times have not been the best the people
have rallied to the support of their public schools
and have maintained them at a high standard. Our
children have the advantage of a broad school cur
riculum, thorough system and splendid management.
A large majority of the people favor schools of as
high a standard as is practicable to attempt to main
tain without overlooking the district.
The whole country appears not to have complet-
ed the job of readjusting its expenditures since the
after-war deflation and the wise counsellors among
public men from the President down are strongly
advising retrenchment toward lower taxes. What
is better Congress is putting these suggestions into
effect. Economies in local affairs, when possible,
should fall in step with the national stride. Law
enforcement with as little colored tape and costly
delay as possible and fines commensurate with the
crimes are appropriate ways to reduce the cost of
government.
Before going to the polls to vote the voters, no
doubt, would be genuinely interested this year IN
plain statements from all candidates as to the poll
cies they would support touching on expenditures
and law enforcement.

THE LIGHT WINE ISSUE

The issue of light wines and
beers is in our midst and quite q
few signers of the petition L re-
ported. 1t is to be hoped that
the names Of reputable citizens
will not be found on the petition.
1t is very easy to sign such a pc
tition for policy's sake and ease
ones conscience with the thought
that it will never amount to any
thing. but one must also remem-
Der that such an act has a moral
effect upon the whole community.
The churches have been very ac-
tive in the prohibition movement
and the cry about its failure is
not from them but from the oppo-
sition camp. 1t does not look well
for men whose names are upon
the rolls of churches to place their
o. K. on a movement fostered by
the booze crowd who would close
every church in America if they
could.
Again we would like to say q
~bootlegger or a moonshiner is an
outlaw and so is his customer, and
if they persist in their ways we
should treat them as such, if we
expect our children to escape the
communicating influence of his
kind. Bankers must quit loaning

BACKING HIS CONVICTIONS

A professional man in New York
City wrote his brother who is
head of a New York state country
bank, in regard to the use of gov
eminent printed envelopes by the
bank. He said:
81 know their convenience and
doubtless they are cheaper, but in
these days when the various
classes of industry and business
realize the necessity for fighting
against the further encroachment
of the government and state into
business, it is rather inconsistent
for a bank, or any other business,
to encourage government compe-
tition with its own citizens. So
far as the envelopes are concern
ed the government is in the bust
ness tax free; and if it can man.
ufacture, sell and distribute en-
velopes in competition with private
enterprise, which must pay the
taxes to maintain government,
there is no good reason why it
should not invade other fields of
business. Each industrial func-
ton taken over by the govern
ment adds an increased tax burden
on the private citizen and proper
ty owner. I think that when the
present supply of government en-
velopes is exhausted, we should
purchase our envelopes from a
private printer who pays taxes to
maintain our government, ever i'll
t makes US lick our own stamps
and causes us to pay a little more
for the printing. Think it over"

quit signing his bond, property
owners must quit renting to him,
hotels and garages must quit
shielding him, clubs and lodges
must quit letting him pass as one
Of their members, churches must
quit fellowshipping with him and
newspapers must quit publishing
his propaganda. Respectable citi-
zens must quit treating him as
their equal.
The pastor of the Community
Presbyterian church is in the fight
for prohibition. Next Sunday
morning he will tell some of the
things that are usually forgotten
when men are talking carelessly
about prohibition. The subject
of light wines and beers will not
be neglected. The Booze camp
will be welcome but they will not
find any comfort. If you don't
want to hear the truth, stay away.
If you do want to know the facts

VALUE OF MILK AS FOOD

Miss Blanche Lee, state home
demonstration leader, and a mem
Der of the May Day Advisory COM
mittee, in speaking Of the value
of milk as a food says:
"The value of milk as a food
is often underestimate because
many people consider it a bever-
age instead of a food. Milk is
not just a drink-it is much more,
it is a fluid food.
eve have always known that
babies need milk. Now we know
through research and experiment
that boys and girls need milk for
normal growth and development.
and that grown people maintain
better health when a generous por-
ton Of milk is included in their
diet.
"The speakers who are talking
to the boys and girls in the schools
this week are urging one pint of
milk daily as a minimum for each
child and are asking all children
to have four cups of milk every
day if possible.
milk contains fat and sugar
for heat and energy. Milk con-
tains muscle building material.

true in the light Of our modern
knowledge Of nutrition.
"Milk contains vitamins for
growth and health. Vitamins, the
recently discovered factors in GER
tain foods, help to keep our bodies
fit and are often called "protec-
tive substances" as they protect
US against disease. Vitamins also
promote growth"
When we think Of the japanese
and Chinese, we think Of course
that they are a race Of small peo-
pie. The diet of the Oriental
child is less satisfactory than that
of the American or European
child. This is due in great meas
ure to lack Of milk, of which the
Chinese and japanese have never
had any great amount, until with
in recent years when canned milk
has been introduced. The total
milk COW population of Japan in
1919 was 40,343, or one COW for
about 1,414 people. Contrast this
with the 23,455,000 dairy cows on
farms in the United States in
1919, or about one COW for every
four people.
We have in California and in
other coast cities, a large number
of children of Japanese parent
age. Both boys and girls are
larger at all ages than are Japan

Japan. Who would doubt that it

received that makes them outgrow

Milk protects our health and

For the sake of growth, health,

Milk contains minerals for build
ing bones and teeth. Milk con-
vitamins, essential for growth
and health.
milk helps to build up body
resistance to disease. Each mid
shipman at the U. S. Naval Aca-
DENY at Annapolis, Maryland, has
the opportunity to have one quart
of milk daily. Since this has been
the custom, there has been a re-

among the young men there.
milk contains muscle-building

the use of milk in training for
athletic events.

Lime is essential to the body be-

THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE SOIL

The federal farm census is authority for the in
formation that in the year 1924 the farms of Roose-
welt county were valued at $8,500,000 and that in
that year those farms yielded products of a total
gross value of SO, 25O, 1000, or SO per cent of the value
Of the land. When we get down to the bottom of
things, the last analysis, or the proverbial "brass
tacks, " the soil is the common opportunity for all
willing to go into partnership with it.
The soil offers a job that cannot be snatched
away; a nome and sustenance when other sources
fail. Best of all it offers a chance for INDEPEND-
ENCE, the most priceless possession on earth. But
the soil is only one member Of the firm. Working
with it must be a little money, brain, Drawn, faith,
a country with soil SO cheap in money value, so po-
tent in the things needful to life and happiness as
that found in Northeastern Montana?

1888 Surplus Elk Sold
From Mont. Bison Range

A remarkable feat in the trans
portation Of wild animals was re-
Gently accomplished in the ship
ment of 388 elk from the Nation
al Bison Range, Mont, to a large
game preserve at Middleboro,
Mass. The elk were purchased by
the Elk Breeding and Grazing AS
ISOLATION, which paid all costs Of
corralling, d%ehorning, loading.
and transporting.
The sale Of these elk solves a
perplexing problem which the BIZ
illogical Survey of the United
States Department Of Agriculture
has faced for some time in the
disposition of surplus animals. The
elk were crowding the buffalo on
the Bison Range, for which this
reservation is primarily maintain
ed.
The work of capturing the elk
proved to be ardous, even for the
experienced cOW-pulCHSlS CHSdS
ed for the purpose. The bulls are
vicious and fleet. and it was ne
cessary to drive them into small
corrals, where they could be roped
and tied to posts so that their ant
lers could be sawed off to prevent
injuries in transit. They are also
slow and stubborn when being
loaded into cars.
The 3,OOO-mile shipment was in
electrically lighted express cars,
and the animals arrived without
serious loss.
Game experts believe that the
herd will thrive in the New Eng
land climate and multiply in suf-
fcient numbers to supply the zoos
and parks. Future surplus males
can be used as venison for mar
ket. About 200 more elk are to
be shipped later to the same place.
