The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1923-08-02
STANDARDIZE
GRADING OF HAY

Organization of forces for the
Standardization of alfalfa hay grdes
will be recognized in II terminals,
will begin almost Immediately, ac-
cording to E. G. Parker Of Billings,
who leaves for Washington, D. c.,
this week for a conference with fed
eral officials and the making of
plans for the organization of which
he will have charge. Mr.. Parker
has ben resident of Montana for IL
years and was the manager of the
Montana Ranches corporation with
headquarters here for eight years.
Initial Effort
This is the first time that efforts
ever have been made to ~standardize
hay grades, according to Mr.. Parker,
and the effort is the result of the con-
fusion existing each fall in various
terminal markets when the hay is not
given a recognized grading. That this
Standardization will be of great bene-
fit to the shipper cannot be doubted
since it will make alfalfa hay of n
grade recognized at that grade in ny
terminal market.
The hay will be graded much in
the same way as wheat is graded at
this time and the farmers of Yellow
stone county, which is one of the
great hay producing counties of the
state, will reap untold benefits
from the methods which will make
sure the receipt of fair treatment in
the terminal.
Terminal Inspection
Another problem which will be
eventually worked out by the de-
partment of agriculture, thinks Mr..
Parker, will be a track inspection
service by a disinterested third party
in the terminal market. Through
this inspection by a third party
rather than by the buyer, the diff
culties of marketing will be material
Iy reduced. Mr.. Parker will hold
conference in Washington for sever
al weeks with department heads, and
will then have charge of the work of
organizing a sufficient force of in
spectors and deputies to carry on the
work of standardization as soon as
possible.

business session at the Odd Fellows

police. This telephone call came
from Woodruff place. Chauffeur
Clooney vas detailed to the scene
and picked up Officer Rubaha, who
was on the beat.
1t is said that a window in the
house was open and the thieves
therefore received no opposition in
their first move. They were prepar-
ed. it is said, to force open a window
If the one they had gone to was not
open. Once inside the intruders are
said to have made for the safe and
were at work trying to open it when
the alarm spread by Mrs. Cohen
frightened them away.
The telephone call did not come
from the Cohen house as the tele-
phone wires were cut. The police
officers searched in the vicinity OF
the home for over two hours and
Officer Rubaha found a Jimmy at the
corner of Woodruff place and Rector
street, which it is believed was drop
ped by the thieves.
