MONTANA STILL FIRST IN WOOL PRODUCTION TWENTY PER CENT LESS THAN LAST YEAR Montana will retain its position as the greatest wool producing state and there wit be a gradual growth of the industry, - dedipite the encroach- ments of the ;homesteader and pos- sible bad effects of tariff legislation,' in the opinion of George R. Colby, buyer for a Boston wool hoose since 1893. 'The small farmer can scarcely And a more erofitable by-product . than Sheep, Mr. Colby declares. ;On a farm of 160 acres it is possible to run 50 , to 200 'head with very tittle cost for , feed. The returns from 100 sheep Would be about $160 for wool and , probably $300 for lambs, a total of $460 for an expense, counting feed and depreciatiori of not to exceed $100. Farmers of Montana are al- ready taking advantage of this op- portunity and many small ranch clips are coming to market, The Montana wool crop, according' to ,Mr. Colby, fell from 41,000,000 . pounds in 1912 .to 34,000,000 in 1913 and is expected to retch only 27,000e! erease until near the 15,000,000 mark 000 or 28,000,000 pounds this year. In his op'nion it will continue to de - 'when, he believes, the small clip swing it back to former , greatness. He states there is a world scarcity : of wool and it is this condition which' F d ;maintaining the present high price.! Joseph IStreng, 'another veteran 'wool buyer who has been visiting Montana for the past 26 years, esti- Mates the Montana wool clip for 1914 at twenty-e:x million pounds. He says it will be more than 20 per cent under that of 1913, MEXICAN SITUATION STILL LAGS /The Mexican peace and mediation delegates are not making much head- way towards solving the Mexican liroblenst. In the meantime Gen. Villa is looming large as the leading character in Mexico.' While there are many who have Ciftticised him for making wholesale executions, the fact remains that those who are exe- cuted by him are the real oppressors 'of Mexico the same as were the nobles and the clergy of 1789 in Vrance 'when the Guillotine was so busy chopping off heads of those who! 'insisted on living ,on the sweat end toil of others. The difference be- twelen Villa and Huerta are .very great. Villa executes the elllians while Haertn executes the patriots. Miss Stella Peterson., assistant postmistress, was taken to the Lew- istown hospital last Thursday,, being idl with acute appendicitis.
