BELIEVES 1929 WILL
PROVE PROSPEROUS YEAR

A nationwide feeling of optimism,
supported by industrial conditions
which are notably good, by agricul-
| tural conditions which are appreci-
| ably better than for several years,
| and by a world trade condition which
is increasingly improved presages a
! year of widespread prosperity, says
Earl G. Sans, president of the j. G.
| Penney Co.
A cross section of the country, tax
en- through 1918 store managers show
an even distribution of prosperous
conditions reflected in good buying on
the part Of the general public with
satisfactory increases coming to re-
| tail merchants who are conducting
their business on basis which is eco
nomically sound.
Present indications are that there
will be helpful considerations by the
/ federal government which will add
to agricultural security and to indus
trial stability. These two great phases
of our national activity are being
treated in a national way which can
not help but result in an improved
distribution Of success and profit.
In the agricultural sections the
farmers and stockmen are utilizing
the results of the good work which
has been done in the past few years
by leading agriculturists and stock
breeders. The country is raising bet
| ter live stock.
Decentralization Of productive eff
fort and Capitalization of marketing
are working together to give more
farmers better return for their eff
| forts.
The same decentralization of indi-
vidual effort and Capitalization Of
buying and merchandising control
will be felt in the general CONNER
cial life Of the country during the
next few years.
The individual consumer will get
the benefit of the new scientific
moves in business, which are all
based upon eliminating as many in
termediate costs between manufac-
| turer and consumer as may be salts
factorily done away with,
The country at large is more closely
knit than ever before People in San
Francisco and Los Angeles are no
/ longer strangers to people in New
York and Chicago.

Handles Many
Law Violations

During the year just closed, 43
arrest were made for violations of
various federal and state laws and
for property and other trespass at
fecting the national forests, accord
ing to P. ]. O'Brien, special law-en-
forcement officer of the forest serv-
ice in District /. Offenses consisted
of theft, malicious setting of fires,
cutting of timber, illegal taking of
fish or game, and other infractions
of the law. Many trespass cases not
of malicious character were handled
without criminal proceedings. Mr.
O'Brien states.
Thirty-five cases against people for
unlawful fires were initiated and
$16,198.95 was collected to cover
damages and suppression costs. Thir-
ty-three persons or corporations were
required to pay the government for
timber illegally cut, but most of these
were the result of mistake rather than
willful attempt to steal, and in such
case legal proceedings were not in
stituted, the tpespasler voluntarily
paying for the value of the timber
Game-law prosecutions handled by
forest rangers numbered Is during
the year. Forest officers are all der-
uty state game wardens and give the
same impartial attention to violations
of state game laws as to violations
of federal laws. Their presence in the
less-frequented districts where game
abounds and where they constantly
travel about in connection with their
duties makes possible a much strict
err enforcement of the game laws
than would otherwise be possible, and
saves the state much expense for pa
troll.
Thirteen cases of various kinds are
still pending two of which involve
lumber companies who permitted their
slashing fires to escape and damage
the timber of the government. Suits
against these corporations are being
held up pending their decision wheth-
err or not voluntary payment Of the
government claims will be rendered.

EYES MAY BE RUINED
IF IMPROPERLY TESTED

kalispell Times: Reports have been
made from various sections to the
State Board of Optometry that mer-
chants and itinerant peddlers are con-
stantly disposing of spectacles and
eye glasses to customers, after a fic-
tltious and unlawful test. The persons
who use this mechanical device, con-
sisting of a lens placed in a wooden
frame, with bar and figured scale
to assist in the sale, are breaking the
law, as we'll as probably contribut-
ing to the unease and distress of the
patients eye. Injury incalculable may
follow the use of glasses improperly
fitted, and the regular licensed op-
tometrists are up in arms in defense
of the victimized public.
In response to an inquiry as to the
responsibility taken upon themselves
by these uniformed statesmen Attor-
ney General L. A. Foot gives an
opinion that the use of this crude de-
vice comes within the purview Of the
following section of the statutes, with
penalty attached:
Sec. 1856, R. c. NJ. 1921 supple
ment, reads as follows;
Subdivision 10. To take or make any
measurements for the purpose of fit

the time of so doing valid, unre-
voked certificate Of registration; and
any person who shall take or make
any measurements or use any me-
chanical device whatsoever for such
purpose or who shall in the sale of
spectacles or eye glasses or lenses
use, in the testing of the eyes there

tually sold, shall be deemed to be
practlcing optometry within the
meaning thereof.

imprisonment in the county Jail not

MISSOULA MEN GET
HUGE TIMBER CAT

Two hunters who are we'll known il
Missoula bagged nine-foot cougar
near Avery, Idaho, last week after
the animal had gone on a rampage
and killed two airdales belonging to
Fred Herrick, st. Maries lumberman,
when they We're attempting to tree
the cat.
Shortly after that episode, William
Boyd and Ben Volger, government
hunters, arrived at Avery with "Red
Boned" coon hounds and started out in
search of the cat, for it was feared
that if not killed soon it might turn
on humans.
The killing took place about Is
miles above Avery, on Bird creek. Ac~
cording to Harry Bird, one Of the
Missoula hunters who succeeded In
getting four mountain lions near
Greenough several weeks ago, the
pelt is one of the finest yet secured
in that country. The cougar was 4
huge male, and thought to be one Of
the largest Of its kind in those hills.
