Rev. Hansen and his friend, Carl
Klnvod, Mr.. Stene and another
young man recently returned from
a trip near Edmonton, Canada,
where they visited Hasen's folks.
They raise a better crop there than
we do, and they liked the looks
of the country. They ran onto a
log laying across the road and
therefore were unable to return for
thanksgiving. so Rev. Hansen had
to preach that sermon on the fol-
lowing Sunday.

for much less"
The price quoted by the Produc-
ers News was the code price, or
five cents less. Although the News
has never pledged itself to any
code and certainly does not sup
port either codes nor MIRA nor
Roosevelt editorially, the code
price was asked because it was al
ready low enough. 1t is not pos
sible to put any job on the press
for less than a dollar, especially
when material is furnished. And
when the Herald does it, is does
so for a very special reason.
To Wreck the News
The printing outfit on Main
Street is interested like nobody
else in the county to wreck the
Producers News. They think they
can do it by getting every little
bit of business away from the
News, even though they may lose
money. They can afford to lose
money because what they lose on
one hand they can charge up by
means of the printing contract and
squeeze it out of the county tax
By now the Herald really should
have learned that it is not pos.
sible for them to- down the Pro-
ducers News. Using cheap bust
ness tactics and cut-throat com
petition only hits back at them
like a boomerang, for it puts them
in contradiction to their pledge as
a code member and also in their
editorial policy of supporting the
Roosevelt "new deal" in all its de-
tails.
Farmers and also q number of
small businessmen will realize that
the Producers News is not over
charging it's customers. The Pro-
ducers News and the Peoples Pub
fishing company are non-profit
making institutions, owned and set
up by hundreds of farmers in the
county for the purpose of defend
ing the farmers interests. The
Producers News is not after the
dollar, and therefore its
prices are minimum prices. They
are fair and the institution cannot
afford to go below them. And
since the News can also not af-
ford to lose business through the
policies of competitor,
we must defend ourselves by pub
licly exposing such Vaccinations.

MONT. TAXPAYERS
ASSN. DECLARES
UP. STORY FICTION
Story That Assa. Favors
Co. Consolidation With
out Foundation

HELENA.-In letter sent to
all newspapers in the stats, the
Montana Taxpayers Association
emphasize that the story recently
released by the United Press, stat
ing that the association was favor
ing County consolidation, was zen
tirely without foundation" and had
been written without the know
ledge Of the Taxpayers Associa-
ton.
The Organization points out that
the statement is untrue and that
it is not their intention to launch
"any specific campaign to force
counties into consolidation"
The letter states also that this
denial should preferably" not be
made public "for it would only dis
credit an important news service"
Since this news service, however,
like other capitalist news gather
ing agencies, is already discredit-
ed enough, this serves only as one
more incident to point out the poll
cies of the impartial United
Press. Whenever it serves their
purpose, they credit stories that
are simply fiction, to any organ
ization that they consider best suit
ed for their purpose.
The Montana Taxpayers Associa-
ton, at the same time is very well
characterized by tire consideration
it pays to this news agency. It
calls the release an unfortunate"
one and asks that the denial pre-
ferably may not be made public
for it might discredit the UP.

BABY IMPROVES;
BOARD REMOVED
X-RayS Reveal Fractures
Are Knitting; Eventual
Recovery Seen.

Complete recovery of Caroline
Ruby Mercer, month-old baby born
with fifty broken bones, was pre-
dicted today after X-ray pictures
showed that most of the fractures
have knit together.
So great has been the childs i'm
provement that DR.. j. F. Rigg was
able yesterday to remove her from
her improviSed board framework on
which she was placed shortly after
birth.
Caroline now lies on a pillow
where she will be kept until the
zones are completely knit.
All but two of the tiny bones were
fractured at birth. One Of her
thighs was broken when DR.. Rigg
gently moved her feet. Another was
broken by a nurse while giving Car
oline a bath.
No effort was made to set the
fractures, physicians believing that
they would heal better if let alone.
The strange malady has baffied
medical science. Little hope was
held for the baby's recovery at first,
but now DR.. Rigg believes she will
develop into a normal child, both
physically and mentally.
