A large crowd attended the first
of the street concerts to be given by
the Red Lodge band during the sum-
mer season. The music was all that
could be expected and people are GER

It is thought that before the Red

play in Roberts and also play for a
dance there. This is expected to take
place some time around the first of
June.

MRS. R. D. SCOTT
DIES IN SEATTLE

Word of the death of Mrs. R. d
Scott, former resident of Red Lodge
who died at Seattle hospital Satur-
day of last week, has been received
here by friends. While it was known
here that Mrs. Scott had been failing
in health for the past year death was
entirely unexpected
Mrs. Scott was the mother Of four
children: three of whom were born in
Red Lodge. Marjorie, Robert, Dick
and Patricia, all of whom We're in
Seattle at the time of their mothers
death.
Mr.. and Mrs. Scott first came to
Red Lodge in 1903 and Mr.. Scott
worked here as master mechanic in
the mines until 1914, when he was
transferred to Roslyn, Wash. Mr..
Scott returned to Red Lodge again in
1928, Mrs. Scott staying in Seattle
as she could not stand the high alt
itude here. Mr.. Scott obtained leave
of absence from his position as sup
erintendent in the local mines last
September |, returning to Washing
ton, when he received word of his
wife's failing health.
Mrs. Scott had been member of
tn elocal chapter of the Eastern Star
lodge for the last 16 years, not having
transferred when she made her home
in Seattle.
Funeral services were held in Sea-
tile Tuesday afternoon.

SENIOR BALL WELL
ATTENDED BY A
LARGE GATHERING

Attending the Senior Ball given at
the Labor temple last Saturday eve
ming was one of the largest crowds
that has attended any dance in Red
Lodge for some time. The Seniors
proved to be exceptional hosts, every
body enjoying the dance to the full
est extent. The hall was pretAily
decorated in lavender and green, and
the music was furnished by the Blue
RambIers.
The ball marks the final social
event of the graduating class, there
being only the Senior class picnic
which was held on Tuesday and the
Commencement exercises to be held
tomorrow night in the Labor temple,
before the class is finally broken up,
each going their separate ways, many
to college and some to various phases
of our workday world
The entire student body of the Car
bon county high school has been tax
ing their final examinations the first
three days of this week and now are
waiting to find out if they made the
grades and have moved up a notch
in the high school category for the
coming term.

{. P. C0NWELL TO
SPEAK AT LAUREL

County Attorney E. P. Conwell has
accepted an invitation from the Laur-
el post of the American Legion to de-
liver the Memorial Day address in
that city, May 20.
Mr.. Conwell is an able and fluent
speaker and the people of Laurel and
vicinity may rest assured that his ad
dress will be of a high order and in
every way commensurate with the i'm
portance of the occasion.
In addition to having delivered
many Memorial Day addresses in var
lous parts of the United States, Mr..
Conwell has had the unique distinc-
ton of having delivered two such
addresses in one year, one being be-
fore members of the G. A. R., and
the other before the members of the
Confederate organization.

Montana, and | pledge myself to work
necessarily for the development and

would naturally lessen the cost of
marketing farm products. Federal Aid
has been of great benefit in the con-

0. H. P. SHELLEY, CANDIDATE FOR U.S..
SENATOR, SETS FORTH VIEWS ON AGRI-
CULTURE AND FARM RELIEF PROBI Fms
RED LODGE PUBLISHER
KNOWS OF EXISTING
FARM CONDITIONS

O. H. P. Shelley, publisher of Red
Lodge, as Republican candidate for
the United States Senate, sets forth
his views on agriculture and farm re-
lief in the following statement:
As resident. of the State and en-
gagged in business here for more than
twenty-five years, I am therefore
thoroughly familiar with the prob
lens of the agricultural communities
| have been in Washington during the
last five sessions of Congress and
have listened to the arguments in the
Senate and House as to the advant-
ages and disadvantages of the many
proposals for farm relief, and have
had an opportunity to study and fam
iliarize myself with farming condi-
tions, in Montana MD other
agricultural states, particularly in
North and South Dakota where the
problems are very similar to ours.
| believe in cooperative organiza-
tions and cooperative marketing, far
mers unions, and associations. and in
all legislation, including the tariff,
that will benefit, or assist in ben
efltting this industry. If chosen
Senator, | promise to devote nv en-
tire time to the interests of the peo-
pie of this State, and this necessarily
means that | will devote the greater
part of my time and attention to the
problems of the farmer, for agricul-
ture is the most important industry
to our people.
Montana is largely an agricultural
state and practically our entire popu-
latlon is dependent upon the success
OF the farming industry. The pros
perity of the merchants, professional
men, bankers and laborers, as we'll as
the success of the farmer, rests not
only upon the crops harvested, but
upon the marketing thereof. Mon
tana is richly endowed with climatic
conditions, rainfall and soil that con-
talns the necessary elements to pro-
duce bumper crops of hay, grain and
vegetables, making this state an ideal
place in which to live. Probably MIN
ety-flve per cent of those living in
Eastern Montana are interested in
agrlculture and possibly fifty percent
OF those residing in Western Montana
are engaged in or vitally interested in
this industry.
Good crops and good prices mean
good times to the people of this
state. Good crops and poor prices

have the opposite effect. Farming
and this includes stock raising
been in deplorable condition for the
past several years. A good many
have abandoned their farms to engage
in other lines of endeavor.
This depression of agriculture is
due to too much attention to foreign
necessities and too little to our own.
Through an abuse of the Federal Re-
serve system big finance bankrupted
the American farmer in 1920-21. Al
ter encouraging the farmers to ex-
pand to the LIMIT in their production
during the World war, and encourag-
ing the banks to extend credit to the
limit to the farmers, the Federal Re
serve Board compelled sudden liq-
uidation which broke the banks and
the farmers, and brought on the whole
train of troubles which have pursued
the farmer since The rest of the
world was clamoring for cheap food,
and it will be recalled that Secretary
of the Treasury Carter Glass, in his
correspondence with Food Administ-
rator Hoover after the World war
gave that as his reason for asking
Hoover to quit resisting the European
demand for cancelling contracts for
American pork and other food stuffs.
The farmer was made the goat of a
sudden deflation which was perhaps
the most outrageous single act of a
government agency in our history
Much has been said for farm relief,
much has been promised by both ma
jor political parties for the past sew
eral years. Many suggestions and
remedies have been tried and found
helpful but the problem has not yet
been solved, as evidenced by the pres
ent price of wheat and other farm
products.
The farmers of this state and adj
joining states are now attempting co
remedy price and production condi-
tions by cooperative organizations.
Some of these organizations are in a
formulative and experimental state
and as yet it is not possible to deter
mine whether or not they will be sue
cessful. It is hoped that much good
will come from these organizations
and that with the help of Federal .ag-
encies, the agricultural industry will
be stabilized and the farmer and
stockman will again become pros
erous. | am confident that ad-
ditional legislation will be needed and
| pledge myself to work and to vote
for any measure that will help to
fully stabilize this most important
industry.
Transportation Of our farm pro-
ducts to markets has much to do with
the success or failure Of the American
farmer, and particularly the farmer
of this state. 1t costs approximately
thirty-five cents per hundred pounds
to transport our farm products to the
markets at Minneapolis and Chicago
and to the Atlantic coast, the cost is

POPPY DAY SET
SAT DAY, may "a

Saturday, May "a, the members of
the American Legion Auxiliary will
sell Flanders poppies made by dis
abled veterans Of the World war.
Once again, we set aside special day
for those that have died that our
country might live, and we think of
the famous poem by Col. John McCrea
which says:
In Flanders fields the poppies
blow,
Between the crosses, row on
row."
Twice, during May, we are privil-
eyed to wear a flower of deep sig
nlficance. On Mothers Day we pin
to the coat lapel a carnation; red
one if our mother is living; white
one if she has journeyed on. And
without words, all persons, friends
or strangers, are drawn into a great
brotherhood by the most unselfish
love in the world-Mo Love.
Again on Memorial day, May 80,
we wear the Flanders poppy, to ac-
knowledge our debt to the men of
1918, who died for their country
Though the hero band is not here
to see the poppy greeting, their
mothers, their fathers, all those near
and dear to them will be warmed for
your Poppy's glow as they pass you
on the street, and from that glow will
be kindled anew-the spirit to carry
on without the loved one.
Is it not touching that those pop
pies we wear are made by disabled
ex-service men,? Many of them are
still in hospitals, suffering from
wounds received II long years ago.
Others are at home unable to work.
But they need the funds, and disabl-
ed though they are, they are trying,
with the old spirit that swept the
Yanks on to victory, to take care of
themselves. They ask that you pay
what the poppy is worth to you; and
in return they give you not just an
artificial flower, but part of their
own unconquerable spirit.
1t was in 1929 that few scattered
sections of the United States first sold
the poppies as an emblem for the war
dead. In 1921 the American Legion
and Legion Auxiliary first made the
