STATE CONDITIONS
AS REPORTED BY
PUBLICITY BUREAU

The counties of Montana retained
about the same relative positions in
regard to numbers of livestock on
farms at the beginning of this year
that they held in 1925 when the last
census of livestock was taken by the
United States department of com
merce, according to the sixth annual
Montana Farm Review now being
prepared by the state and federal de-
partments Of agriculture.
Beaverhead still holds the lead in
both cattle and sheep numbers al
though that county registered de-
crease of $4,000 head in numbers of
cattle.
Only five of the Sc counties show an
increase in cattle numbers. They are:
Big Horn with an increase of 23,361
head; Toole with an increase of 49,
,088 head; Blaine, increase, 7,015 head;
Deer Lodge, increase, 1851 head, and
Gallatin, increase, 400 head. All 9th
er counties in the state show de-
crease in cattle, although in some the
difference was very small and a few
retained almost the same numbers as
shown in the 1925 census. For the
state as whole the number of cattle
decreased three per cent during 1927.

Sen ATIONAL DRAMA OF LIFE
AND LOVE TO OPEN SOON

rs your daughter safe ?" the Sex
ational drama of life and love which
will be at the Iris theatre for an en-
gagement next week has been consi-
dered one of the most vital contri-
buttons to the motion picture screen,
from an educational standpoint, that
has ever been produced. Because of
the delicate and intimate manner in
which the subject matter Of the pic
ture has been handled, adults only will
be admitted. Children under the age
of 16 will not be admitted at any
time.
The production is one that makes
it duty for every parent, particular
ly those with growing daughters, to
see. 1t tells the story of a simple
country girl who was never instructed
to guard against the pitfalls which
line the pathway of life. The audience
is taken through the details of her
first misstep, her departure from
home to hide her shame and her quick
descent into the bottomless pit of
which a house of i'll repute is but a
momentary stopping place on the
downward journey.
While following the profession in
which ignorance has cast her, she at
tempts to "pick up" man. He turns
out to be her boyhood sweetheart and
the full force of her life of shame
strikes her like a thunderbolt. Blinded
by love, the youth never inquiries
where she secures the pretty clothes
and fine jewelry. Deep in his heart he
realizes that she needs him and that
he wants her. She hides her shame
full life from him, promising an ans
wer on the following day.
Facing the prospects of happy
married life with all her dreadful past
behind her, she goes to doctor. He
tells her that she is not fit for mar
riage, and that she can never become
mother,
She realizes that she can never feel
the loving arms of tiny tot about her
neck, never hear cooling words Of love
in her ear. She is doomed, because she
didn't realize the terrible results of
one misstep to be social outcast for
the remainder of her life.
The production has the endorse
ment Of physicians, ministers, health
authorities and a great mass of the
general public. The story it tells is
not old, it is merely prevalent.

WILKINS FATE UNCERTAIN

Thousands of Americans living comfortably and
peacefully in their homes have their attention drawn
to the Far North where the fate of Captain George
Wilkins remains subject of conjecture.
~ Eight days have passed since the last word from
wilkins was received the radio advising that his
departure for flight over the North Pole would be
deferred week because of bad weather.
At first It believed that poor weather made
impossible to his radio This has now given way
to the fear that he has possibly met with an accident
If the latter be true may be weeks before any word
of him be received at the radio station.
Such information will have to come by dogsled from
Point Barrow, the extreme northern outpost.
Wilkins expedition is made in the interest of scen-
the exploration If successful the data and statistics
which he will obtain will be of mmeasurable benefit
to future Arctic exploration Much knowledge of
the Far North is yet incomplete, but like Will
kns, Byrd and Neville, to mention only a few of them,
rapidly disspating the mysteries which it holds
Admlrers of the courageous who take their
lives into their hands to obtain knowledge for the rest
of hope that wilkins and his associates have not
met with disaster and that they will be heard from
in short time

HARDLY CONNENISM

Those who have observed the love of the japanese
for The Fatherland and the reverence in which Jap
hold the Mkado, will be surprised to learn that
the government of Japan is greatly worried by the
presence of Communism in the land of the cherry
blossom.
Far from being a spectre. Communism among the
Japanese appears to be very much alive and active
body much so that the government has taken steps
TO protect itself by suppressng various organizations
slspicioned of communiStc tendencies
Modernism fourshes in Japan much as it does
iii any other country. THE old order changeth holds
true there elsewhere. Extensive educational fac-
tiles newspapers, movies the radio all serving
break down the old barriers of caste and class distnc
ton.
lii the comparatively sudden change from ignor-
to enlightenment the part of the masses it is
but natural that there should be swing radicalism
small boy turned loose in peach orchard will soon
eat himself sick and thereafter despse peaches Those
whom respect for constituted authority has been in
culcated for generations may eat themselves sick
radicalism, but in the end they will the of
their ways.
Although the japanese government is at present
seriously disturbed by the widespread activity of the
Communists, it is doubtful if communism will make
any great headWay among the Japanese people, though
at the time suppression may be dangerous way
in which to stop it. The martyr is always able
much sympathy
Changes may come in the Japanese government,
but hardly change to communism. The japanese are
too intelligent for that.

Standing in the mud on the bank
of the river, over which Uncle Wig
gily had made his big jump, as |
told YOU in the story last night, the
Skillcrv ScalIcrv Alligator looked at
the pictures of the funny little men.
The rabbit had drawn the pictures
with stick as a puzzle for the
Gator to guess before he could nib
bic any ears.
''What words do those funny men
sp2lI?' asked Mr.. Longears.
"Oh, they don t spell any words
at ALL" snapped the Gator. cit
is Just a trick of yours to fool me.
Anyhow it 5 going to rain and I'm
going home before I get all wet! 1
don't care for ears, anyhow!"
SO saying the Alligator plopped
into the river and swan away, for
which the bunny gentleman was
very glad. Then, looking up at the
sky. Uncle Wiggily said:
i do believe it is going to rain.
The Gator was right. But before
it rains III do that puzzle sentence
with the funny little men.
So with his stick, Uncle Wiggilv
changed around the letters which
the puzzle picture men made until,
written in the mud on the bank,
was this:
"I LOVE YOU"

the cute little house.
"Oh dear! Oh dear. Oh dear
cried Johnnie the squirrel boy.
How my tooth aches, Oh, what a
pain! Did You get the sassatras,
salIie?'
Il have it here said Uncle Wig
gily. Quickly he scrapcd off some
of the bark and put it on Johnnie :
aching tooth. The smart of the sas-
safras made the pain better, bur
Johnnie was still CRYING and Uncle
Wiggilv suddenly thought of a way
to. amusc him to make him forget
tie pain.
With a pencil made of black
stick, and 4 piece of white birch
bark for paper, the rabbit gentle
man made the picture You see at
the end of this story. There was
a bottle of ginger ale in the picture
and a chest of tea, as we'll as bush
and other things. And Uncle Wig
gily said:
'.Those little pictures, together
Johnnie, spell the name of a friend
of yours. See if you can guess who
it is And Johnnie was so inter
ested irving to solve the puzzle that
he forgot his toothache.
I hope none of you have a tooth
that aches. But, even if YOU have,
see if YOU can do this puzzle. You
