STATES DEATH RATE
SHOWS BIG DECREASE

Helena, July 31.-Montana is ap-
parently on the way to retain its
place as one of the states appearing
at the lower end Of the death rate
column. The bureau of vital statis-
tics in this state says there were g.
851 deaths in the Treasure state dur
ing the first six months of last year,
as compared to 1928 for the same
period this year. Thus the state has
an advantage of 228 fewer deaths this
year,
Wit hthis decline has come an in
crease in fatalities from automobile
accidents, the figures for the two
periods being SO and 10. The total
deaths by accidents, however, de-
creased from 2O4 to 201, The largest
decline in deaths is noted in tuber-
culosis. That disease took 1875 dur
ing the first month period year
ago and 178 this year. Influenza
claimed 10 more persons this year and
cancer showed like increase in its
toll.

HARVESTING GRAIN
UNEVENLY RIPENED
Thomas D. Campbell, King
Wheat Farmer, Outlines
System.

Farmers Of Montana who are faced
with the serious problem of harvest
ing unevenly ripened grain with a
combine will be interested in the way
Thomas D. Campbell, manager of
what is said to be the largest wheat
farm on earth, handles the situation.
Mr.. Campbell states: In order to
1 overcome these objections (green
weeds and immature wheat) we have
worked out system of windrow
harvesting whereby the grain can be
cut and put in windrows a day or so
earlier than it can be shocked. I'M
even ripe spots will mature in the
windrow and weeds will dry in a short
time so that they can be threshed
and separated. These windows are
made by taking several old binders,
removing the binder head and equip
ping them with extension carriers
50 that successive cuts will be de-
posted in one continuous windrow.
The most desirable arrangement for
the average farm is three S-foot bind
ers, making a 24-foot windrow, and
16-foot combine. Three such binders
pulled by a three-plow tractor will
average rs to so acres per day with
two men.
After the grain has become suf-
ficiently mature in the windrow we
take our combines, raise the cutter
bar and attach an ordinary hay loader
with double cylinder to the combine
and usually find that the ordinary 16-
foot combine has no difficulty in
handling the 24-foot windrow. Our
records show that this method saves
from $3.50 to 81 per acre from the
old method of shock threshing. By
using straw spreader on the COM
bine all of the straw is left on the
field and can be used as a fertilizer.
This method works equally we'll in all
kinds of grain and is particularly eff
fective in the threshing of flax, which
has always been problem to the
farmer, especially in wet weather"
The Montana extension service is
emphasizing the Importance of using
every precaution to avoid loss from
ripened grain this year, par
ticularly where the combine is used.
An emergency bulletin, by H. E. Muir
dock and M. L. Wilson of Montana
State college, has been prepared, ex-
planning means Of equipping COM
bines to handle uneveniy ripened
grain Copies of the bulletin may be
without cost from county
agricultural agents or from the Mon
tana extension service, Bozeman,

OLDEST OAKLAND
EMPLOYE DRIVES
OLDEST OAKLAND

The oldest employee at the Oakland
Motor Car company factory in Pom
tiac, Mich, appropriately is the owner
and driver of what is believed to be
the oldest Oakland car in daily serv-
ice.
He is w. E. Noble, "a, who has
served the Oakland Motor Car COM
pany and it's predecessor, the Pontiac
Buggy company, for upwards Of "a
years. He is the connecting link be-
tween the quiet horse-drawn days
when Pontiac was sleepy little vii
lage on an old Indian trail, and the
dynamic automotive present.
For that matter, his car almost
qualities as a similar link. 1t dates
back to 1912.
Back in 1894 Noble was master
trimmer for the Pontiac Buggy COM
pany, engaged in upholstering and
decorating the gorgeous buggies-the
sport roadsters-in which the young
bloods of the gay nineties rode behind
their fine teams. Incidentally he says
that the buggies then came in yearly

IN order to meet this demand for a
wide RANGE IN choice of subjects it has
been necessary to revolutionize the
,aa-l Curriculum. Now modern
high school is offering several, if not
many, courses where formerly per-
haps but one was offered. This de-
mand is being met most successfully
by the larger schools and there is
evidence showing that the drawing
power of the large school IS increas-
ing, while the small school is failing
to keep pace in this respect.
IN the good old days all children
were expected to accomplish the same
amount of work, the same quality OF
work in the same given time Chill
dren VINO failed to measure up to
prescribed standards were branded
failures. Formal grammar, abstract
arithmetic, algebra and Latin must
be mastered by the mechanically in
clined student as we'll as by the
academic scholar The child must fit
the school.
From this realization that children
differ widely in tastes, abilities, apti-
tudes, industry and ambition the plan
of individual instruction has devel-
oped. In some schools the regular
class organization has disappeared
and each pupil prepares his lesson
with little notice of what his fellows
are doing, though there are some
group activities. Progress is meas
ured by individual rather than class
achievement and different standards
of accomplishment provided for the
different kinds and degrees of abilities
that exist. All work is motivated.
There are other ways of attempt
ing to meet, at least part way, these
demands of individual differences.
The most common is the plan of
homogeneous grouping, a division of
classes into groups or divisions based
on likeness of ability. Supervised
study and the divided assignment are
other means commonly employed to
accomplish the same purpose.
Incidental to their program of fit
ting the school to the child some
schools provide lunches for the under
nourished child and sleeping rooms
with beds for the child who has been
deprived of NEEDED rest so necessary
to the successful accomplishment of |
school work.
Extra curricular activities assume
yearly more prominent place on the
school calendar Until their extent |
threatens the regular curriculum. 1t
IS probable that the next few years

The first Oakland was two-cylinder,
assembled afafir with daily production
limited to not more than two cars.
There were no assembly lines nor pro-
duction methods.
1--WE just worked around chassis
until it was finished" explained the
old employee. "Buggies, of course, re-
manned our leading product"
"The next year they brought out
the four-cylinder Oakland, known as
model K. 1t was a good hill climber
and won lot of cups in the climb
contests that were so popular then
Soon the automobiles became more
important than buggies and more
space was used in the assembling

"How many miles on her? No idea

the result that some Of these activi-
tives, perhaps athletics, special music
and dramatics, will be accorded places
on the regular shedule.
Emphasis is being placed on social
and civic guidance, and since learning
is best accomplished by doing, shoot

for children to participate actively in
