STAIN "OUSTER"
REPORT IS DENIED
Official Russian News Agency
Declares Rumor Is "Ridic-
uIouS Nonsense"
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, March 20.-Reports 3
published abroad that Joseph Stain,
secretary of the Communist party
central committee, had been forced
to resign were described by the off,
eial news agency Tass, today as ri
diculous nonsense"
BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, March 20.-The newspaper
Tempo today published rumors from
Riga, Latvia, that Joseph Stain, secre-
tary of the central committee of the
Communist party, had been depoSed.
Dominant Since Lenin's Death.
Joseph Stain, known as the strong
man Of Russia since the death Of Lenin
who was chairman of the central COM
Hittee, has held the dominant position
in the Communist party despite attacks
by the opposition, which he crushed.
Leon TFetsky, one-tine leader of the
Red army, was one Of Stains chief op-
ponents. but he was deprived Of his
power and finally sent into exile. Trots-
by now Is In Turkey after having vainly
sought permission to enter most of the
European countries.
Riga long has been sort of clearing
house for news coming across the bor-
der from Soviet Russia and reports from
there have not always proved reliable.
Recent Reports Lacking.
While Stain has his opponents, par
tieularly on matters of policy, there
have been no recent reports from Mos
COW that his position was in any way
threatened.
Only recently he gave q warning tc
the Communists against hasty and in
expeditions application of the eollecti-
visatien Of farms and the campaign
against religion. His policy Ia this hal
been echoed by the Communist party
organs and the government itself.
Stain Is 81 years old and has beer
member Of the central committee Of
the Bolshevik party since 1912. He was
arrested in 1909 by the old czarist gov
eminent and was banished to Eastern
Siberia, escaping in 1904. Subsequently
he was arrested and banished several
times and finally was liberated after the
February revolution of 1917.

hospital representatives revealed
That the greed of many Of these
private companies has resulted in
shameful treatment for injured
workers.
Most of the companies are more
eager to save money than to treat
the injured fairly, it was charged,
Maintains Clinics
Clinics are maintained by the
companies, and all injured persons
are dumped" there for treatment
it was said. Workers injured in
New York City are allowed to
stay in "non-insurance company
hospitals" only so long as it is
utterly impossible to remove them
to cheaper places.
Several hospital heads told of q
constant fight they had with in
suarnce companies because they
refused to permit the removal OF
a patient to a "clinic" when he
was in no condition to stand the
strain of being transferred.
A committee of 16, headed by
Vincent Astor, was appointed al
the meeting to conduct a thorough
investigation into hospital compen
sation cases.

SHOCKING CHARGES
ARE MADE AGAINST
INSURANCE FIR MS
Cheaper to Amputate Injured
Workers Limbs Than to Pay
Compensation.

New York, July 23.-That in
competent and INSCRIPTIONS doc
tors employed by compensation in
surance companies have performed
unnecessary amputations on injur-
ed workers because chat was
cheaper than keeping a worker in
a sick-bed and paying him compen-
sation for a period long enough to
effect a complete medical cure"
was the shocking charge made at
a meeting of outstanding repre-
sentatives of various New York
hospitals.
According to these representa-
tives, an amazing condition of af-
fairs has developed in connection
with the state compensation law.
Has Glaring Fault
New York has a good compensa-

fault of permitting private compa-

Now you want the miller 10 sell
this flour for $2.75 per bbl., then
there is 20 lbs. of mill feed which
is worth about zoe in the bulk

leaving a balance of 26c per bar

ance, taxes, advertising, and all
the other expenses incidental to

won't even cover warehouse

unsealed, the bin or bins to be in
spected must be boarded up 10
the gable, and all openings into
the bin made in such a manner
that they can be sealed and UNI

Prepare for Bin Inspection
Before you call for an Inspector
TO inspect and seal your bin, you
should be very careful that the bin
is in good condition. If the bin is
leaky or otherwise unsound, the
grain will be impaired and you will
be required to make settlement for
any deficit when the loan is Iiqui-
dated. You should remove all seed
and feed grain which you will re-
quire between now and June 30.
1881, as you will not be allowed to
remove any grain from a bin, which
/ Is State-sealed, until the loan is IL
quidated. This matter of proper
storage facilities is important, and
any person preparing for an inspec-
ton of his granary should examine
his structure, and hinges and hasps
on doors and windows, and close all
other openings so locks and seals
can be properly applied as a protec-
ton from thieves. and be sure floor
and roof are in good condition.
This must be done before the in
spector can approve IL aus suitable
and should certainly be done before
he arrives, otherwise he will be de-
layed in making the inspection and
may be obliged to go on without

CHEMICAL PROVES
SUCCESSFUL FOR
WEED CONTROL
Demonstrations to Be Held This
Week In Different Sections of
the County.

On a series of tests which was
conducted in the county last year
for the purpose of determining the
value of Calcium Chlorate as a
control of perennial weeds such as
Quack Grass, Canadian Thistle and
Sow Thistle, it has been found
that Calcium Chlorate is very eff
fective as a weed eradicator.
Last year County Extension
Agent, E. G. Ferguson, conducted
a number of demonstrations thru
out the county to determine the
time that the application of the
Calcium Chlorate should be made
and also the rate of application
that would give the best results.
Applications were made on differ
ent noxious weeds in July, August
and September. Inspection of the
plots this year show that the lat
est applications which were put
on in the latter part of August
and September were more effec-
tive than those made early in
July. Results secured on the diff
ferent plots will range from 500.
to 1000 eradication of perennial
weeds.
County Agent Ferguson has ar
ranged a number of demonstra'
tons in different sections of the
county to show farmers the value
of using Calcium Chlorate for the

Expert" Olson Does Not
Choose to Fingerprint

Editor, The Producers News:
Mr.. FRANKS, barber supply man,
came to our rescue with new tools
when he heard of the robbery of
our shop a week ago. He says he
drove night and day thru mud and
rain to get here. He heard of the
robbery when he was IN Great
Falls and the BARRIERS there and
all along the line said they know
Mr.. Moe and if they catch the
robbers they will feed them some
thing more potent than castor oil.
They say that the theft of bar
bers' tools is about the lowest form
of crime and the robbery of the
White Barber Shop, the dirtiest
thing they ever heard of.
On the morning after the rob
berry. Alfred Marsh asked L. S
Olson why he does not take the
finger prints. He had 10 hollei
three times before Lard stopped
Lard's only excuse was that the
weather was too wet. Some gum
was on the window sill when the
robbers got in and their hands hac
been placed on the gum and the
print could be seen with naked
eve. If Mr.. Olson thinks it only
amounted to few dollars we car
show him that we bought 67.OI
worth from the supply man, onl!
part of what was lost.
l.. S. Olson seems to rejoice ov
er the robbery but lots of on
friends brought their razors an'
.strops and asked US to use then
or anything they had in that line
which we appreciate very mucl
and especially Mr.. Bennett. A
soon as he found out he brough

was great help to us, and W

burden with us by getting thei
whiskers pulled out. We are agai

D4~ssvis, DefgIum, AUG 1t
While the American middle west
has suffered from a drought, Eur
ope has received more than its
share of rainfall and pleasantly
cool weather. Belgium has been
deluged and considerable damage
done to crops by the excessive
rainfall.
Appeals have been made to the
governments to free farmers from
all taxes and to grant subsidies to
those who have suffered most. An
other suggestion is the launching
of a national relief fund to the

Dooley, Montana.
August 16, 1880.
Nels M. Olson,
Outlook, Montana.
Dear Mr.. Olson:
In reply to your letter in The
Producers News, take it for
granted you did not take the
trouble to read my first article in
said paper, in which / made the
following statement: "This does
not mean that only Union MEM
bers can have their grain inspect
ed, and receive Farm Warehouse
Certificate. Any producer of grain
can have his grain inspected and
receive a Warehouse Certificate,
and anyone holding a Warehouse
certificate can receive a loan, but
all farm-stored grain must be COW
cred by insurance and an integrity
bond before the intermediate Cred
it Bank will loan on the Ware
house Certificate
As grain Inspector or this coun-
ty, l am ready at any and all
times to inspect grain for any
farmer in this county, but / do
not make the loans, and if the
Northwest Grain Association, who
is doing so much for the farmers
in this county, have not made ar
engagements to loan to their mem
bers on Farm Warehouse Certifi-
Gates it surely is no fault of the
inspector. If for any reason tn,
farmers of the Outlook Communi
ty do not want me to inspec
their grain, they certainly are a
liberty to apply to A. H. Stafford
State Agricultural Commissioner
at Helena, for an Inspector i
their community.
Personally / can't see what tn
Northwest Grain Assn. is going /
do with all the grain, you say the

they haven't one bushel of term

have they made arrangements 70

grain out of the market. | do no
doubt that the Northwest Graf
Assn. is indorsed by many of tn
leading Commission Houses, lead

sored the farm storage movemen
and has made all necessary al
rangements, with the Intermediai
Credit Bank, to make loans
Union members, on Farm War,

possible rate.
AS for which is the best orgs
nization is a matter which liz
with the individual to decide.
my estimation, the organizatio

As grain Inspector of this Coul

and courteous treatment, and W
