STATES COMEBACK
IS TOLD IN FIGURES
ON MONTANA BANKS
•
During 1924 the banks of Montana
*
Reduced bank loans $10,555,000;
Increased deposits, $6,121,000;
Reduced borrowings $5,652,000;
Increased investments $10,267,000;
Increased cash and money due from
other banks, $9,274,000.
Montana has wiped out an indebted
ness to governmental banking agen
cies which, at its peak, amounted to
more than $27,000,000.
The $13,601,000 placed in this state j
by the Federal Reserve bank has been
practically repaid and closed up.
The $14,000,000 poured into Mon
tana by the War Finance corporation
has been balanced and the account is
wiped out.
Thus in terms of finance and bank
ing, Curtis L. Mosher, assistant agent
of the Federal Reserve bank of Min
neapolis, sums up Montana's aston
ishing recovery from hard times.

II AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
it
|1 Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy
*1
!
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
cd, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound." You will get a large bot
tle of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients, at
very little cost Everybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it so naturally and even
ly.nVou dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick add
glossy and you look years younger.

! DEVORE WARNS OF
SEED PEA MENACE
\ County Agent Asks State to
j Help Combat Threatening
I Weevil
I
Helena.—That the- seed pea weevil
is a menace to the raising of seed
I peas as an industry in Montana, was
| the assertion of L# G> DeVore, county
I
agent, who recently brought attention
to the matter in a conference with A.
H. commissioner of
agriculture.
The weevil has dene great damage
to peas raised in other states for seed
purposes, it is explained, by lessening
the sales.
Montana should take special pre
cautions for the protection of its seed
peas against an infestation by the
weevil, it is pointed out, due to the
fact that the Montana seed is in big
demand. The raising cf peas is rap
idly becoming an industry in the state
and proper steps should be taken tö
protect it, it is declared.
Peas raised in the Helena valley
during past seasons hàVê proved the
[adaptability of the soil for such pur
poses. There hâvè been 350 acres ot
peas contracted in the valley for fall
{delivery. At least 600 acres could
jhave been contracted if seed had been
available, according to Mr. DeVore.
The raising of peas on a commer
cial scale has been done in the Galla
tin valley for some time. The same
jis true in the Yellowstone valley.
Mr. Bowman is understood to be
j considering methods by which the
j Montana pea seed growers can be pro
jected against a possible infestation
of fields by any shipment of seed car
rying the weevil from other states.

weeps constantly and is so wrought
up that she is unable to nurse her

a problem. But then, justice must
be done.
Comparison makes analysis easier.
Here's another interpretation of jus
tice. Clinton A. Steuben, 56-year-o!d
meat salesman, has just pleaded
guilty to a Mann Act indictment. He
took Arvilla Bi^rnham, 23-year-old
daughter of his friend and neighbor,
from Salt «Lake City to the coast. He
crossed a couple of state-lines during
the trip and the judge sentenced him
to seven months in jail.
I can understand why justice is
represented with bandages over her
eyes. Placing a Mann Act offence and
the cashing of a worthless rejit-check
on a parity, would seem to me to he
destructive of the confidence good
citizens should have in their courts.

KILLED BY A DEAD MAN
Ray Roy, a Crena, La., gambler
was shot and killed by a dead mar.
That's interesting. Roy lost $2,000
in a crap game. Believing he had
been "cleaned" with crooked dice, he
shot his opponent while the latter
was drawing his own gun. Roy leaned
over the dead gambler to search for
the money he had lost. As the body
rolled over, the dead fnan's fingers
contracted on the pistol he still held
and discharged it. The bullet pene
trated Roy's brain. It is the unusual
that makes a news item interesting.
