MONTANA FARMS
SUFFER FROM
DROUGHT
9
HELENA, Mont., Oct. 15 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Dry land farmers who
had not been on their farms long
enough to diversify their crops were
the chief sufferers from the drobght
in Montana this year, according to a
statement issued by Charles D. Green
field, commissioner of agriculture and
publicity.
"In the irrigated sections good
crops pf hay, grain and other prod
ucts were raised, and with the high
prices farmers of this class have had
a good season,” the statement said.
"In the dry land farming section
the reason the drouth has been so se
verely felt is because as a rule these
fanners were what may be termed
one-crop producers. In a majority
of cases with the failure of their grain
crop they, had nothing else on which
to rely.”
Residents of the drouth-stricken re
gions are optimistic, Greenfield re
ported. holding the' failure of the usual
rains to be the sole cause of the situ
ation.
The shipping out of the state of
much livestock has reduced the price
of hay from $6 to $10 a ton, according
to Greenfield.
"In those counties where it has been
necessary to tide the farmers over the
winter,” he continued, “bonds have
been issued, in one county to the ex
tent of half a million dollars, which
will be loaned to the fawners at a low
rate of interest.”
Real estate activity, Greenfield said,
indicated that “confidence in the pro
ductivity of the land had not been
shaken.”
NORTHERNER PASSES
BIG BUNK TO ALERT
SEATTLE REPORTER
When a maid entered the room of
a guest at the Frye hotel yesterday to
place it in order, she brought up in
surprise at sight of the bed with noth
ing but the bare mattress, says the
Seattle Times. Shades of crooMom!
Someone'had walked away with the
bed clothes.
The room on a whole looked quite
bare, for there was no other sign
that it had been occupied.
But if she were surprised at first,
the maid must have been shocked
when, a moment later, she discovered
■the bed clothing -spread on the floor
in a corner of the room. With a deep
round indentation, the pillow was re
posing at one end. The maid reflect
ed and then she laughed outright.
Down in the lobby Teddy Samuel
son, an Alaska trader, whom the regis
ter showed occupied the room, was
complacently smoking a big pipe. He
was pacing back and forth in a remote
corner like a caged lion, a far-away
look in his eyes.
“Am returning on the next boat,”
he said, condescending to answer a
query. “This is no place for a sour
dough. Been up there now for fifteen
years. Thp sooner I get back the
better for me. Came down to sign a
contract to do some fur trading for a
firm here. What? Yep, had a fairly
restful night. All hotel beds, though,
are the bunk. Don’t sleep good in ’em.
Huh? Whazzat? Well, I just couldn't
sleep, so rigged me up a bunk on the
floor. Slept fine, too."
Without batting an eye, Samuelson
contends and claims he always will
contend that beds in all modern ho
tels are the “bunk,” while a “bunk” is
the only thing.
