PASSENGER
LOCOMOTIVES To
BE USED BY N. P.
Twelve Ordered-COst S1,3OO,-
600 - Length 1O4 Feet;
Weight 100000 Pounds

Twelve new passenger train loco
motives, to be built by the American
Locomotive company at a cost Of ap-
p%rOximately $1,000 900, have been or
dered by the Northern Pacific rail
way company for handling the North
Coast Limited and other t~ranscOnt-
mental trains, President Charles
DOnnelly has announced.
These passenger train locomotives
are Of an entirely new type, having
a wheel arrangement that has never
been used before. They will be
substantially larger and more power
full than any passenger locomotives
ever operated in the Northwest. They
were designed by the Northern Pa
cific and will be known as Northern
Pacific type" The conventional des-
ignation will be the 4-8-4 type, mean
ing that the locomotive has a 4-wheel
leading truck, 8 driving wheels and
4 trailing wheels. Each locomotive
will have a drawbar pull Of 10000
pounds and an especially large fire
box and combustion chamber to burn
the railway cOmpany's Montana sub
bituminOus coal. The large firebOx
design made necessary the 4-wheel
trailing truck, an entirely new de-
p%arture in passenger locomotive de-
sign.
The locomotive tender will have 6
wheel trucks and a capacity of "a
tons Of coal and $4,000 gallons d
water. The combined weight of 10.
connective and tender in working or
der will be 100000 pounds. The
weight on each pair of driving wheels
/ will be $1,000 pounds. The length
il. over all will be 1O4 feet, or about one
third the length of a city block.
* It is expected that the locomotive
will be delivered this summer.

BLACK Stem RUST
Loss $6O,OOO,OOO
Eradication of Common Bar
berry Will Result in Control
of ScOurge

For the past 10 years Montana
farmers have suffered an average n
nual loss Of approximately $1,000, 900
through the ravages Of black stem
rust and the 10 important grain grow
ing states have had average annual
losses Of more than $780, 10000 from
this cause, according to the barberry
eradication office at Montana State
college. During the 1O-year period
black stem rust has destroyed almost
50O,000,OOO bushels of wheat, oats,
barley and rye, valued at mere than
$600,0O0,0OO in the states Of Colorado,
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan,
Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North
Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wis
cCnsin.
It is because of these serious losses
and the further fact that the disease
was showing an alarming increase,
that Montana and other states are
cooperating with the United States
department Of agriculture in the
work of graduating the common bar
berry, says W. L. Popham, in charge
Of the barberry eradication campaign
in the state. The common barberry,
according to Mr.. Popham, is one Of
the host plants Of black stem rust
and through it's destruction, the dis
ease can be controlled. The eradica-
ton campaign is under way in all the
campaign is under way in all the
northwestern states. By the end Of
1925 more than 1000 bushes had
been destroyed in Montana.

ILLUSTRATES VALUE
OF PUREBRED RAMS

From natives to grades that are
hirty-one-thirty-second pure in five
generations, is what Montana sheep
men are accomplishing by using pure
bred rams in their flOcks. By using
three-quarter blood grade rams they
are finding that the upbuilding pro-
cess is much slower. Starting with
native ewes, the fifth generation still
finds the flock less than three-quar-
ter blood grades. Breeders have
found that the pure bred rams will do
more in two generations toward
building up the flock than a grade
ram will in five.

Importation of
Porto Ricans By
Arizona Protested

WASHINGTON - Complaint has
been filed in Washington by labor
organizations in the southwest over
the importation of native Porto Ri
can laborers for work in the har-
vest fields in New Mexico and Ari-
zona.
A shipload of Iaborers is expected
to arrive in Galveston within a
short time for work in the cotton
fields of the southwest and if they
prove satisfactory farmers in Iowa
and other states are planning to
import more.
In answers to complaints filed by
senator and representatives, the
labor department held that federal
immigration restrictions were not
applicable to Porto Ricans as they
are classed as American citizens.
The labor organizations hold that
impOrtations of Porto Ricans will
lower the wage scale to the point
where American laborers could not
compete.
