This system is comprised of an
extension arm on the steering wheel
which runs directly to the finger
tips of the driver. A mere touch is
all that is required to turn the
lights from bright to dim or vice

In night driving on country high
ways this system has been found a
big safety factor since it is no
longer necessary for the driver to

Headlight Lamps
Double filament bulbs are used
IN the headlamps. These provide
saftey lighting, not only for the
Willys-Knight driver but for other
cars on the highway since turn of
the switch on the steering wheel
cuts down the power of the bright
lights but still furnishes sufficient
glow to illuminate the entire road

edge of the road.
The convenient position of the
horn at the drivers hand also Is
great aid, especially in mountain
and hilly territory, on dangerous
stretches and sharp curves where
all the drivers alertness is required
at the wheel. To sound a horn

The senator. c0-author OF the
McNary Haugen bill Vetoed by the

number of conferences at the White

the conclusion that this measure in
the face OF presidential opposition
would have but little chance of be-
coming law even if it should be
passed by both house and senate.

Song Of the Wind

trailed the way of the world one day
Afar DER the ocean deap.-
Pitched the waves to their dance and
play
Der graves where sailors sleep;
| spied the course of passing ship
Played with sail at the mast.-
Sped away on my wilful trip
Till reached the lands at last.
raced the waves to the sand swept
beach,
Sped DER the open lea,
Touched the peaks in their loftiest reach
And spread the scent of the sea
Far DER the wales where the cities lie,-
Over the timbered land,
And rost the clouds thru the summer
sky
And shifted the desert sand.
All unashamed kissed the cheek
OF maiden by the way;
rippled the waters upon the creek
And cooled the sullen day;
| sped away to the prairie lands
And my silvery clouds spread
Der waving fields where the cottage
stands
And the Indian tribes lie dead.

Treat Mexico as a
NeighboT, Says Oevine

The most important country foI
the United States to understand to-
day is Mexico" said DR.. Edward t
Devine. internatiOnalist and sociolo
eist, speaking last night at tn
First Presbyterian church. If we
are wise in our attitude toward the
republic to the south, we will nol
line up for or against Mexico on
political or religious lines, but will
line up as neiehbors.
Speaking of Mexico's past history
and experiences, DR.. Devine said
that much in her present cOnstitu-
ton and attitude caL be explained
by knowledge of the events of the
past hundred years. We as Amer
leans must remember that our
school Biographies that contain
maps showing the source of our ter
ritory, indicated that most of the
southwestern portion of the United
States came from Mexico either by
secession, conquest. or treaty.
Mexico did have some real eriev-
ances over some of the events con-
nected with the loss of over hall
her territory to the Uuited States"
In taking up the present religious
problems, Or. Divine said that un-
questionable much of the leglsla-
tion relating to the church was dras-
tic and unfair, that the only hope
for the future lies in a peaceable
changing of this legislation. But,
said the speaker, the background
of this legislation lies IN fear of
domination of the state by the
church, and this lear must be re-
moved, as it has been in other ma
tions."
President Gales. as man of real
ability, received DR.. Devines trib-
ute as being the best product vet
elected to the presidency as IN
outerowth of the Mexican revolu-
ton. The speaker also said that
we with our background of the
English common law cannot ap-
preciato Mexico's background of the
Spanish law in relation to land

to do so.
Mrs. Hathaway stated that there

Home Talent Ball Team
Let's Try II This Year

Very little enthusiasm is being
manifested in upper baseball circles
these days relative TO the adyisa-
blllty of maintaining a ball team in
Plentywood the coming season.
Many of the business people free
ly express the opinion that it takes
TOO much money to maintain an
all-salaried team such as Plenty
wood has had for the most part
during the past two seasons.
Not few local people are of the
opinion that there are a lot of sand
lotters and young sprouts, in and
out of school, WHO have not had q
good chance TO exhibit their talent.
And with little general encourage
nent, the boys would be able TO
turn out a creditable team of the
home grown variety and team of
this kind can be kept up and going
at little or no expense TO tbs peo-
pie of Pentywood, outside of noml-
nal admission fees.
We also understand that if Plen-
tywood maintains only an amateur
team, that the neighborine towns
expect to follow suit, and this will
materially help to create a more
generous feeling throughout the
county. To our way of thinking
playing professional ball with SEQ
hey and few of the Canadian
towns does not stimulate a lot of
business for a farming town such
as this Is
We used TO have home tolent ball
teams some years ago that could
talk turkey to anybody or anything
within radius of hundred miles
or more. Think back to the time
when the home team was made up
of such players as-WaIt Crawford,
l. f. Helm, Lee and Buck Munson,
Blaine Dean and Bob Wheeler
Those were the days of real base
ball sport
Lets Give the young home boys a
chance.

yOUNTY AGENT NOTES
HAIRLESS PIGS

Hairless Pigs have been reported
to the County AGENTS office. Those
who have not fed iodine earlier, it
might help to begin feding at this
time. Feed one grain tablet every
day or one five grain tablet once a
week to each SOW.
SMUT TREATMENT
BARLEY: One pint of 409e for
maldehyde to 80 gallons of water,
temperature 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
Soak the seed in loosely filled burlap
or gunny sacks for two hours. Drain
ION Stats over the barrels to avoid
wasting the solution. Dry by spread
ing on clean floor or canvas, stir
ring occasionally with a rake or shov-
el. 1t will dry faster if the wind can
blow over the wet grain. Sow as
soon as the seed will run freely or
dry thoroughly and store in clean
bags or bins until it is planted. Bar
ley requires two hour treatment to
Kill the leaf strips and loose smut
diseases.
OATS: For oats we are recon-
mending the strength Of the solution
to be increased in such a way as not
to make the seed wet enough to nee
essitate drying before seeding. The
solution should be made by using one
pint Of 40ao formaldehyde and ten
gallons of water. Sprinkle the ten
gallons over 40 bushels of oats, in
the meantime shoveling, causing uni
form distribution, effective as soon as
the oats and solution are thoroughly
mixed. Seed the next day. This
method saves labor and is fully as
effective as the formerly used soak
method.
DRY METHOD FOR OATS
Another method where oats are left
even dryer than in the above treat.
ment is as follows:
Mix one pint of formaldehyde with
one pint of water. AS oats are shovel.
ed from one pile to another, apply
spray of this solution using an ordi.
nary spray gun. One plunge of the
spray gun for each shovel full of the
grain is sufficient. Spray surplus
OF any to the pile of SO bushels fol
which the quart of solution is suffi.
alent. Cover the pile with bags OF
canvas for two hours to permit the
fornaldehyde gas to act.

ARB0R DAY MAY 10

Helena, April IT. Tuesday, May
10, is Arbor day in Montana and,
drawing attention to the purpose OF
the day, Governor Erickson has issued
the following proclamation:
"Once more the alluring notes of
the songbirds are heard in our noun
tains and valleys, reminding US OF the
passing Of winter and the years re-
birth, the coming of seed time and
the promise of bountiful harvests.
They remind us of that time when our
lawmakers have set apart for obser-
vance of season of tree planting and
other forms of beautifying our lawns
and parks.
Wherefore, |, ]. E. Erickson, gov
ernor of the state of Montana, do
hereby designate and set apart Tues
day, the 10th day of May, as Arbor
day for the state of Montana.
"The occasion is one that will af-
ford us opportunity to do some Of the
things that tend to enhance the at
tractiveness of our residential proper
ties and the beauty spots of our cities
and towns, thereby adding inestimably
to the satisfaction and pleasure Of our
selves, our neighbors and the stranger
within our gates. Let US, therefore
give to this day such ernest notice as
will demonstrate our pride in trees
and shrubbery and lawns, by special
exercises in our schools, teach the
younger generation the good to be de.
rived from little effort to add to the
beauty Of the places in which we live.'
