edic Oil Activity

That there is every evidence of consid-
cradle activity in the Montana oil fields
during the ensuing months of this year
is the impression gained by Ted Larabie'
who returned to Deer Lodge recently
from the northern part Of the state,
where, with Senator w. ]. Paul, he made
q visit OF one week. Senator Pau made
an address at the Lions club convention
In Great Falls, after which he and Mr.,
Larabie made an auto trip over the vari-
GUS oil fields. Mr.. Larabie says things are
literally "humming" and that much
greater development is anticipated. The
weather, however, was cold and other
wise disagreeable and in most places the
roads are in bad condition.

GET GOOD PRICES
FOR BASIN FARMS

-OHN w. McMURRAY. manager of the
Vermont Loan g. Trust company's
2 LewistoWn office, was in OLSON re-
Gently and reported the sale to
Henry Eelman, of Coffee Creek, of 10
acres three ond one-half miles northwest
of Coffee Creek, with no buildings on 1t,
at 5000. or almost $40 per acre, with a
large cash payment down. Mr.. Eelman
also bought the Walter Smill 400 ac-s
farm adjoining, for which he paid $40 so
an acre. Nearly the entire purchase price
of the Small farm was paid in cash.
Mr.. Eelman has been farming as o
renter on Wolf Creek about half way be-
tween Stanford and Denton. for a num-
Der OF years past. The place he was
renting was sold from under him this
spring, the same as a great many other
places have been sold from under the
renters in the Judith Basin during the
past three years. Mr.. Eelman made all
these two farms while renting and de-
cided he was not going to build up any
more farms for someone else and then
have them taken away from him by
purchase. A good many other Judith
Basin renters have come to the same
conclusion during the past few years.
Many OF the farm loan companies OPP
Grating in the Judith Basin who have
taken over ri on foreclosure have re-
ceived more income from 1t as rent in re-
cent years than they formerly received
when the interest and taxes were being
paid. AS a result many Of them are not
offering their and for sale as income is
what they are after and they prefer to
hold it until land has advanced in price
still more.
An example of 10Y his works is the
case of j. E.. Boiler of Denton, who
bought from Knox Bros, the GAO acre
Van de Geissen farm south Of Denton.
Knog Bros. bought this and from a loan
company at S47.50 an acre n within sc
days sold it for $3.50 per acre. Mr.
Boiler rented it for a couple Of years and
out Of one-third of the crops made SUBJ
stantial payments on the principal be-
fsides keeping up the interest and taxes
He is now farming the land himself and
expects this falls crop to finish paying
the entire purchase price.

ANY careful observers of agricul-
tural methods are OF the opinion
IVI hat wheat production is under
going the greatest transition since
the introduction of the reaper. Whether
this is too strong a statement can not
be determined until the present period
is far enough in the background to offer
a fair basis of comparison, but it is
nevertheless true that the combined fac
tors of overproduction. increased compe-
tition, reduced purchasing power and
other important phases OF the situation
today is bringing about tremendous
changes in wheat growing. Economists
point out that wheat growing areas
throughout the world are in a relentless
economic struggle which is centered
largely on a race to reduce production
costs. In this country and in Montana
and other western wheat growing states
particularly the almost phenomenal In
creased use of the combine harvester is
concrete evidence of the struggle.
The June issue of the Montana "Agri-
cultural Outlook" issued by the Mon
tana extension service. devotes consider
able space to this new method or har-
vesting the grain crop, n the Montana
experiment station now has in course OF
preparation a bulletin dealing with this
subject.
The June outlook" states: 'The farm
err must always be on the alert for ways
and means of increasing his efficiency by
decreasing costs If he is to meet sue
~cessfully the competition that is develop
ing. The American wheat farmer espe-
cially feels the pressure OF competing
neighbors aai nations. Lowered costs
present the best means at hand for stay
ing in the race. In the last few years
new systems of harvesting have sprung
up in the Great Plains wheat growing
area which are revolutionizing the farm
ing business.

Maj. Sarmento Beires, Portuguese
AVIATOR, arrived at the island of Fer

having flown across the Atlantic from

Maj. Beires' flight from the Bliss

De Pinedo, Italian AVIATOR, in his re-

Comdr. De Pinedo hoped off from

compelled him to descend.
The feat of flying across the South
Atlantic without stopping remains I'M

Beires having failed in attempts to
fly from Bolama, Portuguese Guinea,

it impracticable to take off from b.

NEW CRUISER LAUNCHED.
Australia, First of Two Built Under
Treaty, Takes to Water.

GLASGOW, Scotland, March II up.
The Australia, first of two modern
cruisers built here for the Australian
navy and embodying the latest designs
of postwar construction, was launch
ed today from the John Brown works
on the Clyde. The Canberra, a sister
ship, will be launched later from the
same yards.
Two airplanes circled overhead as
the cruiser took the water. Lady
Cook, wife of the Australian high
commissioner, performed the launch
ing ceremony.
The Australia and Canberra were
constructed under the terms of the
Washington treaty, which limits
auxiliary surface combatant craft to
10000 tons displacement and arma-
ment of 8-inch guns. The Australia
carried eight such rifles, twin mount
ed. and in addition will have a num-
her Of s-inch anti-aircraft guns. The
S-inch weapons are of new model
claimed To be as hard hitting as some
OF the heavier battleship ordnance of
pre-war days.
The displacement OF the Australia
and Canberra is 10000 tons, without
fuel, advantage being taken of the
fact that the Washington treaty does
not stipulate that the 10 ,000.ton limit
shall include that item. They will
have a speed of "a knots.

GENEVA NOT SURPRISED.

Previous Expressions.

Nv Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. 1877
GENEVA, March 17.--America' s
peppery observations on the report
of the joint commission on disarma-
ment of the League of Nations sub
mitted a week ago, but only released
for publication today, contain no sur
prises for League officials and neither
further nor hinder armament limita-
ton work here.
The statement is a reiteration of for
mer statements on the undesirabiiity
of international armament control.
Its defense of poison gas research as
necessary to defense and to industrial
progress and its skepticism as to the
usefulness of comparative military
budgets either as estimates or as a
means of limiting aggressive military
preparation already are known here
and discounted.
Americas observations merely con-
stifute another step toward blocking
the efforts of extreme disarmament
theorists, while reinforcing the Ameri-
can view that the only effective dis
armament efforts are to loyal agree
rnents between individual nations on
the model of the Washington confer
ence.
