dipped in asphalt compound to pre-
went rust, then girdled about the new
pipe line, ready for a service that
will doubtless outlive the vigorous
young slaves which it encompasses.
One interesting operation was the
employment for two weeks Of a sub
marine diver from Seattle. He and
his assistant were stationed at the
dam, where for some time they
worked 80 feet under water, rebuild
ing the screen system in front of the
gates on the face of the dam. With
their unusual equipment, including a
submarine telephone, they were OBJ
jects of intense interest en- the part
Of tourists during the past summer.
By using a diver, the necessity for
draining off the water of the lake to
get at the work was avoided and the
use Of Meadow lake for fishermen
and others continued undistuEbed.
The work of constructing the new
pipe was done by the Federal Pipe
and Tank company of Seattle. The
labor of dismantling the old founda-
tions and pipe lines, revamping the
steel, and building the new fOunda-
tions was entrusted to employees OF
the Montana Power company.

REMEDY FOR SMUT
BUSTING Seed With
COPPER CARBONATE

Farmers in Montana, North Da-
kota, South Dakota, and Minnesota
lost millions of dollars in 1925 from
sinking smut in their wheat, says
the United States department of ag-
riculture. Estimates made last sum-
mer showed an unusually large per-
centage Of this smut, reaching 9 per
cent in Montana, Is per cent in
North Dakota, 2 per cent in South
Dakota and 2 per cent in Minnesota.
This abundance of smut is the field
naturally resulted in a smutty crop
on the market.
Official inspections made of cars of
wheat arriving at Minneapolis and
Duluth, during the period from Sep
TENDER l to December II, 1925, show
some startling results. Out of So,
721 cars of bread wheat 2,O18 or al
most 4 per cent were graded smutty.
Out of 26,69O cars of durum wheat
7,180 cars or almost 81 per cent were
locked for smut. The price dis
count on these cars, the department;
says, ranged from five cents to &c
cents or more per bushel.
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1926-02-12

If the wheat coming to market is
so smutty, that saved for seed must
also be smutty, say the Investigators,
and if sOwn without treatment it
will under favorable conditions pro-
duce a still smuttier crop in 1926.
This smut is easily controlled by
seed treatment, and it is recommended
that every spring-wheat farmer treat
his seed. Growers of hard red win
ter wheat are also advised to take
precautions as it has been found to
have unusual smut infection.
A simple treatment is suggested
by the department of agriculture
Apply 2 ounces of copper carbonate
dust to each Dushel of seed wheat.
Stir until each kernel is covered with
the dust. Farmers are urged to
watch for directions from state lead
ers and county agents.
An organization called the North
west Grain Smut Prevention COM
mittee, including the state %agricultur-
al colleges of the four states named
farm bureaus, railroad officials,
grain dealers, millers, and others, has
been formed to encourage seed treat
ment in the spring-wheat states.

the two original lines. And, where

were welded together electrically and
again cut at the proper length to &C
commodate the new pipe. In this
way, some $4,000 worth Of steel was

Attention Vital

Judging from the reports available.
these facts indicate beyond a doubt
that more attention must be given to
the proper maintenance for the mer.
chant as vel as the consumer.
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1926-02-12

Formerly the Madison plant was
fed by two woOd-stave lines leading
from the dam to the power house, Ona
being II feet in diameter and the
other 10.
These pipe lines were built in 1905
and 1906. After 20 years Of cOntinu-
Gus service, their usefulness ceased.
Also from time to time several small
rock slides had damaged portions of
pipe, which had to be repaired and
IN some cases covered with earth to
prevent future injury.

Weights and measures officials have
learned from experience and observa-
ton that dealers are not more dis
honest than other classes of people
but they are often creless and most
negligent. Fortunately, most ma
chimes indicate plainly in some way
their %inaccuracy and need of repairs,
by refusing to perform the service re-
ouired of them in a satisfactory man
ner. When the mechanism Of a watch
is damaged, it refuses to indicate cor
rect time or stops altogether; also
in the matter CT an automobile, by its
operation it indicates It's need of re-
pairs. Not so with a scale except in
isolated cases. The average owner
considers scale a scale, and a weight
a weight, and never has an idea that
either may need a. CAREFUL inspection.
Any concern that uses scales or any
kind of measuring instrument subject
tc wear needs expert supervision by
a disinterested party with scientific
and practical technical knowledge,
and many large users Of scales have
adopted this remedy with great fl
nancial saving as a result.
If the general public in Montana
would recognize the Importance Of &C
curate weighing and measuring de-
vices and their maintenance, there
would be a big economic saving in
consequence.

BUILDING THE NEW WOOD-sTAvE PIPE

Because Of the development of an
inter-connected Montana Power sys-
tern during the past few years, the
rebuilding program called for the con-
struction of but one pipe line to re-
place the two old lines. This means
that less water is now being diverted
from the lake through the new 49,
foot pipe than flowed through the two
old lines, which had a combined diam
eter Of % feet. Sc much for the fu-
ture of fishing in Meadow lake.

MINERS PEACE PLAN
ASKS FOR new DEAL
Civil War Seen Unless Government
Is Ready to Overhaul Whole
Industry.
Rv the Associated Press.

LONDON, May S.-The key to In.
dustrial peace in Great Britain lies in
a complete overha uling Of the coal
mining industry, Noah Albeit one OF
the chief executives of the British
mine workers said today. Unless the
mine owners are asking for such
trouble as inevitably will lead to civil
war, he declared. there must be some
settlement of the situation in the
mines.
The miners are prepared for peace,
he said and are anxious to meet the
colliery owners and the government,
but they are unwilling to discuss or
accept any terms that involve reduc-
ton in wages or an increase in work
ing hours The mine industry also
must he handled on a national basis.
These three points constitute the
cardinal program Of the miners move
ment," said Mr.. Albeit. They have
been accepted by the whole Trades
Union Congress AS fighting plat
| form. We will meet the other side
any time to consider reorganization of
the industry. for after all, this ques
tion holds the key to peace. There
| can be no truce and no patched.up
| settlement unless the problem is
tackled seriously.
The miners do not want to talk
about victors and vanquished or. tt
| dictate terms, but at the same time
thew are keenly anxious to get tho
government to impose compulsory
powers for reorganization purposes.

Last Sunday careful tabulation was

It is expected that Miss Asenath
