of Arthur Wainwright,
Wainwright rushed to the house,
finding William Welfare, an EN-,
ploye of Mr., Rupp, trying to ex.
tinguish the flames by beating them
with ii broom.
In his anxiety to put the fire
out, Welfare had forgotten about
Mr.. and Mrs, Rupp being asleep in
the next room. Firemen arrived
in time to save the house from de-
struction.
Welfare who had been building
the fires for the day when a rag
ignited and started the blaze, was
removed to Georgetown Hospital
suffering from burns. He Is not In
serious condition. James Saya.
lisky. u roomer, also suffered burns
on the hands. Curtis Wilson, an

The complete damage has not
been estiInat ted as yet, but will prob
ably exceed the $1,000 fire insur,
ance which covered the house.

RADIO PROGRAM
STORM TOSSED |


echoed all sorts OF static noises
through the loud speakers last
evening. Although the atHH0s.
pheric furIes cleared things M a
bit in some sections and made re-
CeEti0n clear, particularly I'm the
Middle West--in other sections the
air was thick and almost Inn,
penetrable for sound waves,
Radio listeners received their pro,
gram frcm WEAF through WRC
on sort of installment plan last
evening that storm conditions
caused. This is the first time the
WEAF transmission has suffered
storm or stress weather to wreck
1t, but it was surely swa.ing the
breeze last night during the Anglo
Persian program and interfered
considerably with the complete en-
joyment of the new feature. "Half
Hour With Great Composers,
which came in the early part of
the imported entertainment.
As though to display it's tempera
ment in yet another light the WIZ
transmission was about perfect dur
ing one of the most enjoyable of
the Breyer Ice cream hours to come
to loud speakers for weeks.
SOPRANO RETURNS
10 THE MICROPHONE
After Meyer Goldman's orchestra
at the Hotel Hamilton had provided
an unusually good concert, radiotics
were given a pleasant surprise by
the introduction of Artie Faye Gull
ford for a soprano recital between
and $50. after an absence from
the rnicropEone for many weeks,
She sang grLup of songs with
bit bigger voice than she has been
heard to use heretofore and gave
unusually intelligent interpretations
OF several of them. The singer and
George +. Ross, with piano mum.
Der, were presented to take the
place of the Mozart String Quintet.
Perhaps the most enjoyable feas
ture Of the WRC program was the
new WEAF feature, with Hans
Barth, pianist, presenting the works
Of Franz List. The inaugural con-.
cert of the new feature could have
had no better composer to present,
and that composer would want no
finer Interpretations of his works
than Mr.. Barth gave them. a
pianist OF rare skill and fine mu-
steal intelligence he played the
works Of the master composer in a
style that left little to be desired.
BREYER HOUR
SCORES A HIT
The Breyer hour which came from
WIZ. purported to be a dinner and
dance by the Philadelphia volunteer
fiFemen, managed BY Milton Gross
and introduced the most enjoyable |
program the BreyeP subsidy has
provided since last spring. a |
soprano character singer whose |
name was not given. provided two /
old songs that show the yep and |
go that came into the latter part |
of the Victorian age--one Of which |
was Cissie Fitzgerald's old knockout,
''And She Winked the Other Eye"
Any listener who didn't recognize
that song or has never heard Of
Cissie might ask dad-ne knows!
There was also a German comedian
who brought hack memories of
Louis Mann and Weber and Fields

Fish hatchery to Libby

Abandonment OF the Roman hatchery
and removal OF It's equipment to a site
near Libby, refusal to increase the ex-
tent OF the Gallatln game preserve,
and closing Jefferson county to shoot
ing for upland game birds, we're the
outstanding accomplishments of the
Montana fish and game commission
recently In Helena.
It was the first meeting for e. O..
Carruth Of Havre and w. K Moore Of
Billings. appointed by Governor Erick-
son In December. All members Of the
commission attended.
The new hatchery site was author
lied with the provision that an ease
ment OF sufficient land be secured. It
will accommodate u troughs and is to
be available for the 1926 egg taking
season.
The closing Of jefferson county to
hunting for upland game birds was at
the request Of citizens OF that county
and after a hearing at Boulder de-
veloped no opposition II becomes ef-
fective for 1925 and 1927.

Montana alfalfa seed growers are
being urged to support the seed bin
now before congress which would COM
pei the dyeing of all alfalfa and red
clover seed imported into this country.
A. J. Ogaard, president Of the Inter
national Crop Improvement Ass0cia
ton and secretary of the Montana
Seed Growers Association, states that
much Of the foreign seed brought into
this country is lacking in hardness
and therefore not adapted to the con-
ditions in the United States. AT the
present time there is no means Of dis
tinguishing this seed from domestic
seed Foreign seed may be mixed
with the home grown kind or substi-
tuted for it and there is no way of de-
tecting the deception. Mr.. Ogaard
contends that the proposed seed dye
ing law will protect famrers against
Misrepresentation and Will work to
the advantage OF alfalfa seed growers
by eliminating unfair competition.

The recent government census shows.
that Montana has $4,000 hogs. the
same number as a year ago. There
was a decrease in fall narrowing and
the number OF fall pigs In the state is
approximately 10 per cent less than at
this time last year. The Indications
are there will be slightly more than a
one per cent increase in spring farrow-
ing over the spring of 1925. Figures
for the IL western states show that
there are approximately 1870 fewer
hogs this year than last year, that the
number OF pigs saved from narrowing
is approximately eight per cent less
than last year and that there viii be
an increase Of 10 per cent In spring
narrowing. The figures show Mon
tana to be In a favorable position for
the coming year, according to r. L.
yladdell. live stock specialist for the
Montana Extension Service. Last year
Montana exported 225,OOO head Of hogs
so per cent OF which went TO western
markets, and If prices remain good for
the year, as economists expect they
will, Montana farmers will enjoy a
profitable season with their hogs.
The periodic downward price swing
due to increased production is expect
ed to become noticeable in 1927.
