ers Association, shows that during
the past year there were 400 meet
ings reported in 3S states, with
total attendance of 3S,57S. County
key bankers numbering 2,541 were
appointed in 80 states. Thirty
four states reported an expenditure
by banks of $105,926 for developing
better agricultural practices.
Special banker-farmer activities
engaged in by banks in 27 states
numbered S,493, while 7,140 prof
ects or farm programs were carried
on by rural people through the in.
fluence of bankers.
For three years the Agricultural
Commission has given special rec
ognition to the state reporting the
highest record of accomplishments
and this year Georgia achieved first
place with its banker-farmer agri-
cultural program. Representatives
of the Georgia State College and

SNOW Seen ON PEAKS
FOR The FIRST Time
SINCE LAST WINTER

After a rain that started Satur-
day evening, and fell steadily over
the county during the night, the
clouds over the Beartooths lifted
high enough Sunday morning to
reveal the first snow that has been
seen on the peaks and hills since
last winter. Some snow fell with
the rain in Red Lodge, rain con-
tinued in the lower part of the
county, and snow has been fall
ing in the mountains most of the
week.
Rangers coming down from the
mountains Sunday night, reported
that at least ten inches of snow
lay on the upper plateaus. The
blanket enxtended fairly well down
in the hills, coming within a mile
or two of Red Lodge. At camp
Early snow in the mountains is
a pleasing sight to most farmers
and growers of the county, who
have experienced drought this
summer caused by the unusual abb
sence of snow in the Beartooths.
Two exceptionally mild winters,
followed by hot summers, left the
mountains dryer and barer off
snow this summer than they have
ever been in the memory of men
living in the region. The fact that
most Beartooth roads and trails
were open and free of snow last
winter had its correlary in the
fact that the mountain slopes we're
clean and dry this summer, while
crops in the valleys were ruined
by the lack of moisture.
Snowbanks and glaciers that
had lain in the mountains for years
were melted down during the hot
II onths, some of the glaciers dis
appearing entirely. Part of the
grasshopper glaciers in the Bear
tooths were melted this summer,
and part of the famous pink
snow" was evaporated. Evidence
OF melting glaciers was noticed in
the Lake Fork and other streams,
whose water was murky for sew
eral months from the sediments
carried down from the fast vanish
ing snow banks.
Too much snow cannot fall this
winter for the benefit of this re-
gion, and it is hoped that the pres
ent layer will stay on the noun
tains, to be increased by an old
fashioned winter.
Although some harvesting of
beans and beets has been delayed
by the recent rains, the soaking
has been of value. Grass ranges
in the valleys are likely to hold
out longer this fall, due to the
recent refreshing.

w. E. Bennett, for nearly 40
years an employee of the Northern
Pacific in Montana, will retire I'M
der pension rules of the railway
company on September 80.
Few railroad men have wider
acquaintance in Montana than
does Mr.. Bennett. And his ac-
quaintances include also residents
of every state in the union and in
many foreign countries. This is
true because each year he has met
thousands of guests travelling to
and from Yellowstone National
park.
The record shows that he was
born in Guilford, Me-, September
2, 1861, and that he was first en-
ployed by the Northern Pacific as
an operator at Rosebud, Mont, on
June l, 1892. Exactly a year lat
er he went to Big Timber as
agent, where he remained until
July l, 1898, when he became cash
Ter at Butte, serving until Septem-
Der l, 1898. He then became agent
at Belgrade, remaining until APP
ri 80, 1899, when he took up his
duties at Livingston, where he has
continued to serve as agent and in
which position he will terminate
his active career.
In the 80 years that Mr.. Ben
nett has served the Northern Pa
cific at Livingston, he has been an
energetic worker on behalf of the
railway company, accoding to Fred
Bastrup, superintendent, and, at
the same time, an enthusiast in
cooperation with the various agen-
cies engaged in the development
of Montana. He is past president
Of the Livingston chamber of Com
merce, past potentate of Algeria
Shrine Temple at Helena, past
president of the Northern Pacific
Veterans Association, and is a
33rd degree mason.
II shall continue my active in
terest in the development of Mon
tana, which has been my home for
SO many years." Mr.. Bennett said,
"but my plans for the future have
not been entirely completed"

a campaign to bring about chan
ges in the terms under which far
mers in the drought area may OBJ

1t has been apparent that the

not provide the first mortgage Sc
curity required and that it would
be impractical for holders of first

loan applicants to give the gov-
eminent proportionate property
security on loans.

A limestone spreader, owned by
bank in Illinois, is rented out to
farmers for ten cents ton, and
also a phosphate spreader at five
cents ton. The limestone project"
was the principal contribution of
the bank to banker-farmer work,
during 1880, and was carried on In
cooperation with the Farm Bureau.
A man trained in the testing Of soil,
and in the making Of soil maps was
employed by the bank. The unit
maps used covered forty acres, on
which % surface tests were made at
mathematical points. At five other
points three tests were made-sur-
face, sub-surface, and sub-son. The
completed map showed, by varying
shadings Of red, the points which
needed limestone. Arrangements
were also made by the bank to have
limestone shipped in In car lots for
sale to farmers as needed.
