TAGGART RETURNS
FROM NATIONAL
C. A. r. CONCLAVE

Sam Taggart returned from the
East last Friday where he went on
September 7, as delegate from Mon
tana to attend the National G. A. R.
convention, which was held at Grand
Rapids, Michigan. He doesn't speak
very we'll of the east, as the weather
was in no wise like he was accustom-
ed to in Red Lodge. He states that
at Grand Rapids, during the con-
vention the thermometer registered
around 100 in the shade.
After the convention adjourned he
went to Wauconda, ILL.,, for visit
with his sister and thence to Des
Moines. Iowa for visit with his
brother, remaining several days in
each place. At Des Moines the tenn
perature dropped 30 degrees between
four p. m. and eight o'clock the next
morning, resulting in a heavy frost
that damaged the corn crops there
abouts.
Aside from the extreme weather
he states that his trip was a pleasant
one. He also reports that the conven-
tion was largely attended but that
the ranks of the veterans are thin
ming at rapid rate, but those who
were present showed the old vim and
enthusiasm characteristic Of the boys
of 81 and '65 and that the next con
vention of the order will be held at
Denver, Colorado.

TERRIFIC I TORNADO
HITS ST. Louis, MO-;
EIGHTY Y-EICHT DEAD

Eighty-eight persons were killed,
600 injured and $500 homes and
business buildings were devasted in
st. Louis, Missouri, September 20, by
four-minute tornado. Work of re-
lief and rehabilitation is well under
way, the St. Louis chapter of the
Red Cross having full charge of the
relief work. Stations were at once
provided where 5000 refugees could
be housed and fed in the event that
number we're found homeless The
national guard armory was made
available for 5000 homeless.
The property loss, according to the
best estimates of experts who spent
the day in the stricken area, was ex-
pected to exceed the record of the
tornado of 1896. st. Louis is now vir-
tually without reminder Of the
death and desolatior within three
miles of the business district The
devasted region, however, is a scene
of horror and at the same time a
scene of intense activity. The bodies
of five wee girls were found in the
debris Of the Central high school.
Seven school buildings with $500 pu-
pills were in the tornado's path.
OF all the damage done by far the
greater seemed to have occurred not
by the unmeasured twisting and lift
ing power of the tornado itself, but
by the explosions of air inside build
ings themselves, as the twister pass
ed and created an outside vacuum.

ton of gasoline rose even higher than
did production, and stocks of this
commodity decreased for the fifth
month in succession. Production of
electricity rose 7.6 per cent above
July, 1926, and for seven months was
9.5 per cent heavier.
"Retail trade returns for August
will bear notice because Of the re-
markable gain, II per cent, shown
by mail order houses over year ago
as against a gain of IS per cent, by
chain stores. While this no doubt re-
fleets somewhat freer buying by
farmers, it is to be noted that some
mail order concerns have of late
made notable extensions into new
fields in the form of opening stores
for district sales to consumers, this
setting up additional competition alike
for the chain systems, the already
existing department stores and the
ordinary small Individual retail con-
cerns."

AGRICULTURE DEPT.
REPORTS ON FALL
STOCK MARKETINGS

Smaller marketings of both cattle
and sheep are in prospect from the
state this fall and early winter due
principally to the heavy 1926 mar
ketings that were swelled by drouth
conditions in most of the eastern half
of the state and resulted in an ap-
parent overselling on part of stock
men. Smaller offerings of cattle this
fall will in part be offset by better
market prices which in September
averaged about $1.40 per hundred
higher than a year ago, says the pub
licity division of the state depart
ment of agriculture, labor and in
dustry.
In case Of sheep smaller market
ings will mean more of a reduction
in income sales unless prices should
improve. Total value of the dairy
production, however, should be larg-
er than in 1926 and the increase in
poultry production would appear
enough to offset any price differ
enees compared with last fall.
Both cattle and sheep men have
put up big hay crop, have had plen-
ty of green feed all summer and have
excellent pasture conditions as the
fall opens. Local inquiry for breed
ing stock especially in case of beef
cattle indicates some restocking ten
dency that with indicated smaller
marketings this fall points to some
inventory gains when the year closes.
General information would Indicate
that cattle men are now much better
financed than in any year Of the post
war period.
Montana cattle are moving to the
markets rapidly at relatively high
prices, while sheep, especially eve
lambs are also commanding good
prices. Ranges, with the exception of
small isolated areas, are reported to
be in the best condition at this time
of the year that they have experienc-
ed for years. There is an abundance
Of hay for winter feed, although some
of it was damaged by wet weather
during harvesting.
Together with the demand for fat
cattle for the eastern markets is re-
ported a brisk local demand for
breeding stock to replace those that
were marketed last year because of
lack of winter feed. Prices for stock
cattle are also reported to be uni
formly high.
Sheepmen are experiencing brisk
demand at good prices for both eve
lambs and old stock, though little
shipping has been done as yet The
call for breeding stock seems to be
especially good, both to replace and
extend old flocks and to supply the
demand for new flocks.
The hay crop generally is reported
to be the equal of or greater than
that of any for recent years. Prob
ably the states largest tonnage has
been put up so that there should be
plenty of feed for the coming winter,
with a general replacement of reserve
supplies that were exhausted a year
ago. Some of the hay was damaged
slightly by wet weather and in some
districts it is reported that there is
some danger of frost injuring the
green grass on the ranges.
Condition of ranges for October !
was reported to be 1876 per cent Of a
normal, as compared with l30 per
cent for September 1 and 80 per cent
for year ago. Cattle were reported
at 100 per cent of normal October
/, as compared with SO per cent for
a year ago and 10 per cent a month
ago.
