Grafton in eating helped S2-year.old
Mrs. Maria f. Fuller to retain her
health for four score years. she said in
AN essay that won the first gold prize
Of the Maine Three.quarter Century
Club.
Mrs. Fuller expresses little SYM
pathy for the presentday tendency to
allow children to go lightly clad in
cold weather. She believes that pro.
lection from colds is most important
factor in preserving health. In the
past % years she has taken little out

Conserve Energy by
Act Of Hibernafion

The members of the American
Society of MammolOgists have been
requested to look into the subject
Of Libefnation with the hope that
1t might be III; lie use of by hui
mans. The suggestion was made
by Vernon BAILEY of the United
States biological survey. Hiberna-
tiun is something between sleep
AID death which progresses until
lie sieeper's body becomes cold
aid RESPIRATION reaches a scarcely
perceptible rate. This condition
in some mammals might continue
for six months; others awake oc-
casionally to feed from food stored
nearby. 1t is said to be practiced
by some of the isolated tribes OF
northern Russia, where food Is
scarce and where the winters are
so severe that they can do little
work. They tuck themselves away
and arouse only occasionally TO
take a little food which is placed
nearby. Food in very small guam
titles suffices, IS the hibernators
ere called upon to use such a tri-
fling amount of energy. 1t is a
matter of record that hansen, the
explorer. while isolated many years
ego in the Arctic virtually slept
through the entire winter months,
aroHsing himself momentarily from
dey to day only TO eat frozen blub-
Der before browsing Of again.

the 1926 crop. The forecasts il
Idaho, North Dakota, South Dako
ia, Minnesota, Washington, Oregon
and California all point to a larger
production for 1927 in these states
than in 1926. The total national
crop is now estimated as about
All, 900, 900 bushels which is about
55,0 900 bushels larger than in
1926 and about 100000 bushels
larger than the ive-year average.
While the present outlook for the
potato market is not discouragine
considering tn. trend of prices dur
ing the summer months compared
with a year ago Montana producers
should keep informed as to condi'
lions in the late potato producing
states which compete with Mon
tana in outside mrakets.
Beans
A larger bean crop in Montana
this year finds national production
about a million and a half bushels
above last year. The August fore
cast places the entire crop at 49,
million bushels. This improve
ment in consumptive demand,
would not seem to indicate any
better bean market than that OF
1926.
C,,-.r RASfc
A slight reduction in Montana's
probable production of sugar beets
compared with last year finds a
similar situation nationally where
production is estimated at $780,
600 tons compared with 100000
tons harvested in 1926.
Hay
Montana's tame hay crop placed
at 2,525,O 900 tons will, with her wild
hay harvest, which will probably
reach $4,000 tons, give Montana
the largest tonnage of hay in her
history. Hay being n Of the
basic controlling factors in live
stock production subject to annual
variations according to the charac-
ter of the season, this would ap-
pear to be a year when Montana
farmers as a whole would find it
advisable to set aside surplus hay
as a eserv rather than to mark
ct at relatively low prices, or to
pay relatively high prices for ad-
ditional livestock to feed it out.
Apples
Montana's apple crop this year,
while slightly larger than the 1925
is below the ive-year average
production and finds a similar sit
uation in national production which
this year is placed at 127,507, 900
bushels, almost half of the 1926
production of 246,460,000 bushels
and we'll below the five-year ave
age PRODUCTION of 1879, 244, 600 bush
els. Since Montana produces prin-
the Mcintosh apple 1t is
interesting to note that competition
in the principal Mcintosh areas
elsewhere will be less this year.
Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
New York as well as the New Eng
land states, areas important in
commercial production of McIn-
tosh apples all report decreased
production in total apple crops
this year compared with last.

TOWN OF BUCKEYE
WANTS NEW NAME

Buckeye, a village S3 miles west of
Phoenix, is voting on a possible
change of name, with the field open
for suggestions. Complaint is made
that the present appellation is not
sufficiently western in sentiment. 1t
is forecast that the village will have
a large growth in the near future. 1t
is on the new main line of the South
ern Pacific, with probability of being
made freight division terminal, while
to the northward is being developed
the 10000 acre Roosevelt irrigation
district.

G,usshobber Plague in Culiffo1niaRecalls
Sea NGuILs, War on C1icketS. in Utah

CWARMING out of the Tule lake
~ district of Modoc and Siskiyoui
counties in northern California,
!. and spreading into adjacent grain
fields are countless armies of grass
hoppers! Marching and hopping in
almost a solid body, in spite of the
efforts of the scores of men at work
trying to exterminate them, they
are destroying acres and acres of
grain. More than 10000 acres are
threatened, according to recent dis
patches from this section Of the
country.
Harking back in western history
one recalls the episode in Zion, the
Crickets and the Gulls. 1t oc-
cured in 1848 when Salt Lake City
the earliest settlement in the
Rocky Mountains-was less than a
year old. The so-called City" was
not even village at that time; it
was more like a camp. 1t consisted
of log-and-mud fort; enclosing
huts, tents and wagons, with about
1900 inhabitants.
Sow the Fields
Most of these had followed inn
mediately after the pioneers, who,
with Brigham Young arrived on the
shores of the Great Salt Lake. in
July 1847
Some plowing and planting had
been done by the pioneers upon
their arrival, but the seeds then
put in, did not mature owing to the
lateness of the season. The nearest
approach to a harvest. that year,
served as seed for another planting.
1t was, therefore, the first real har-
vest in the silence and solitude OF
the wilderness.
Much depended upon the harvest,
not only for the people already
here, but for $500 additional inn
migrants, who were about to join
them from that far-away frontier.
Five thousand acres were under
cultivation.
Attack Crops
Then came an event as unlocked
for as it was terrible-the cricket
plague! In May and June these de-
structive pests rolled in black
legions down the mountain sides,
