The man who broadcasts couldn't be farther behind the times if he threshed with a flail. Any drill is better than broadcasting. The Monitor Double Disc is better than any other drill. Why? Because— IT REQUIRES LESS SEED—IT INCREASES YIELD— IT RAISES THE GRADE—IT PAYS FOR ITSELF! How? All the seed is deposited in two rows at an even depth, and covered with a uniform amount of earth. None on top for the birds, none insufficiently covered to start early and be killed by the hot sun—it all grows. Requires a fifth less seed. By depositing the seed in two rows, in the moist soil, with a uni- form covering, it germinates quickly, has a firm root hold and withstands dry spells. This increases the yield of wheat (other grains in proportion) from three to seven bushels per acre. By being planted at one depth, with uniform covering, it all comes at one time and ripens evenly. No shriveled grains. HARNEY & ADAMS I IARDWARE CO. GEYSER, MONT. Geyser Locals Good ink tablets for Sc at the Cash Grocery. For the best kind of insurance ob- tainable. see 'N. I. Peterson.

Referendum and Initiative (Continued from page 1) A law of but one section provides. if adopted, \That we. the people of the State of Montana, hereby instruct our senators and representatives in our legislative assembly, as such officers to ; vote for and elect the candidates for United States senator for this state who receive the highest number of votes at our elections.\ it might be well to call particular attention at this time to the fact that the proposed measures will not be printed on the ballots and there will be no distinguishing characteristics in identify them to the voter, except num- bers. Each measure will call for .t separate ballot. Thus on the ballot ' for the adoption of the Oregon primary law will appear only the following: 'For Initiative Nleasure No. 302... \Against Initiative Measure No. 303.\ Therefore, it is very important that every voter keep the pamphlets that have been mailed by NIL Dennis; that he familiarize himself with their pro visions and the numbers by whik they will be designated on the ballot , . Indeed, after he has made up his mindl which way he wants to vote it would be the part of wisdom for him to make a memorandum of the numbers of the measures and carry it to the polls with with him on November .5, in order' that through the formality of voting the will of me people be not thwarted; as it has so often been in the past. In the meantime—if you are not registered by October 5th you cannot vote this year. Waterworks Meeting Pursuant to the call of a conamittee. a meeting was held Wednesday even- ing by the citizens of Geyser to con- sider the project of putting in a water - ,_works system for fire protection. The idea was to raise money by bonding a certain district to be called a fire dis- trict. Judge R. W. Berry of Great Falls was present and explained the ! law on the proposition, showing how to proceed with the matter. %Ouch would be to bond the district for 3 per cent of the taxable property therein for the creation of a fund to covet the cost of installing a pumping plant. la% - ing mains and purchasing necessary supplies. An estimate of the cost of a certain system had been prePared by interested parties and a sum of $6,000 was considered necessary. After con- siderable discussion it was decided that the limits of the town are too small to warrant so large an expenditure and it would be impossible to raise enough money by issuing bonds to install this kind of a system. The matter of pia - chasing a chemical engine of rii.ill Icabacity was also discussed but turned i down as impracticable.
