MONTR0SE OFFICIALS
LOOK OVER PAVING

Several officials from Montrose
visited Delta last Friday to look over
the new paving job and watch the
process of laying it. In the party
We're Mayor J. J. Gatschet, city man
ager, H. c. Gilmore, and commission
ers W. C. Haney, c. L Moore, and c.
NJ. Thompson.
They were enthusiastic over the
paving and said they thought it the
best which could be laid. They spoke
very favorably of the Improvement.
and commented on the greatly i'm.
proved appearance of the town. The
storm sewer especially appealed to
them and they stated that they feel it
is a great thing for the pavement as
it will undoubtedly do away with
much trouble which is experienced bv
cities which do not have this feature
to take off the water from the pave
ment
The Montrose men were much
pleased with the work done here and
watched with interest the laying of
the pavement where the steam roller
was working.

WONDERFUL FEAT OF NATURE
Certain Seeds May Be Subjected to
Intense Heat and Still Retain
Their Vitality.

=.
Amazing ways of enabling her chill
dren to survive extraordinary hard
ships have been devised by nature.
None of her inventions has more won
derful powers of endurance than the
seed by means Of which plant life II
carried on.
You may subject certain seeds for
hours to a temperature Of 100 degrees
below freezing point, you may heat
them until they are hot enough to burn
your hand. yet they will not lose their
vitality.
Great fires often rage through the
forests, destroying mile after mile OF
giant trees. When the fire has passed
there remains nothing but charred
stumps and flame-scarred, smoldering
soil. Yet within few months the
whole district will be green with the
FIRST leaves Of the tiny Seeding trees.
Recent tests to discover the heat at
ground level during a forest fire dis
closed that 1t was from 1000 to 1,5OO
degrees Fahrenheit. The fires move so
quickly that this intense heat lasts Tor
only minute or less at any spot. ne
Various tree seeds were then tried
to see what heat they could resist. II
was found that fir cones could with
stand temperature Of 1000 degrees
Fahrenheit for eight minutes without
losing their vitality.

In the IA contests there were $50
students, and of these records were
obtained on 493. One hundred and
seventy-eight of these men, or SO per

cash income is derived from the sale
OF the livestock. The prices used for
most of these feed crops are alto
gether too high. Oats and barley
should be soc, rye 6Oc and flax $3.50
IN place Of the prices used.
Apple Figures Misleading.
The figure on apples and other
nuts is misleading. Apples are the
main commercial fruit crop Of the
state and four-fifths of the CONNER
claI apple crop of this state was des-
tr~yed by the June freeze.
The figures on livestock income
with the exception of the estimate fo,
the sale of beef cattle, are not seri-
ously out of line. The Livestock Com
mission estimates the 1924 sales a.
approximately 10000 carloads, and l.
million dollars instead of 20 million
dollars will be a high estimate fol-
the cash income from the sale OF
beef cattle in 1924.
1T should be borne in mind, how.
ever, that the great error in tn,
above table occurs when its author
credits the farmer with cash income
from the feed crops which are con.
sumed on the farm and then again
with cash income from the sale OF
livestock and other secondary pro
ducts. IL this way alone it is APP
parent that there has been a dupli
cation Oh overlapping of over 80 mil
lion dollars. Montana kfarmers il
some parts Of the state have pro
duced abundantly this year, anc
prices on the whole are better thai
they were a year ago, but it is a mis-
take to assume that there has beel
any such increase in prices or sue!
