From Montana Record Heraldl

AG4Oa
President Hoover again has shown his bigness and has ex-
hibted to the country an example of generous craftsmanship
that will long cling to the memory of the American people. Rec
ognizing that the problems with which he has wrestled through
out the most of his administration, will, before their solution
has been reached, be dropped upon the shoulders of Franklin D.
Roosevelt, he extended an invitation to the presidentelect to
confer with him at the White House and give study to these
troublesome questions. It was with no idea of influencing the
next chief executive that Mr.. Hoover extended this invitation. 1t
was merely the mark of good craftsmanship to give the fellow
who must carry the ball an even break.
Mr.. Hoover is in a position to give his successor an intimate
and first hand survey of the difficulties ahead and to explain
in the closing days of his administration. He will not attempt to
dictate the course of Mr.. Roosevelt, but his own course, no doubt
will be guided by the views of the presidentelect. This stands
out as a fine thing for the country and an indication that, now
there has been noted a definite upward trend in business, it is
not going to be permitted to go to smash through the shortsighted
procedure of selfish men. In Mr.. Hoovers invitation there is
the plain evidence of the action of a man who loves his nation
and is seeking in every way to advance its emancipation from
difficulties.
That the courteous invitation of Mr.. Hoover was promptly
accepted by Mr.. Roosevelt was to have been expected and is an
other hopeful sign. Here are two men, big enough in the estma-
ton of their fellow citizens to assume the highest place in the
worthy of the faith of the nation is demonstrated.
The invitation of President Hoover is without precedent.
It's nearest approach was when President William Howard Taft
provided his successor. Woodrow Wilson. with information on the
Mexican situation, but declined to commit the United States to
a definite policy for dealing with the southern republic on the
eve of a change in administration. = > :

SUGAR BEETS

With a harvested acreage sight
ly larger than last year and a re-
ported yield of 12.5 tons to the
acre compared with ia tons last
year, production of sugar beets is
indicated at 1000 tons compared
with GIT 900 tons last year and
the 5-year average production OF
321,00 tons. This sets a new rec
ord for sugar beet production in
the state of Montana. The yield of
1875 tons per acre almost reaches
the record yield of 1877 tons per
acre secured in 1880 and is con-
s~iderably above the short time av-
erage (7years) of 10.5 tons.

FINISH AND CAREFUL
GRADING OF TURKEYS

(From County Agent Warden)
The Montana turkey producer
who places his birds on the mar
ket with the proper finish will OBJ
tain a premium equal to the cost
of production, declares Miss H. E.
Cushman, extension poultry spec
ialist at Montana State college.
The New York market ordinarily
pays 10 to II cents more per pound
for fancy quality birds than for
low quality birds. AS Montana has
no equal in the quality of turkeys
it produces, the premium is ready
and waiting for those who meet
the demands, according to Miss
Cushman.
In outlining some of the require
ments in putting fancy quality
birds on the market, Miss Cush-
man says: "Feed the turkeys so
they will be well finished. Starve
them before killing to prevent crop
by birds, bleed them well, pick,
cool, grade and pack carefully"
For convenience in handling and
selling the market wants turkeys
packed in the right kind Of con-
tainer. Each box must have tur-
keys of one kind, of one size and
n grade in a single layer box.
Toms and hens should never go in
the same box. One low grade turk
ey in a box of quality birds means
the trade will look upon the en-
tire box with disfavor.
Don't neglect a single factor
that will cause smaller returns.
Getting the turkeys ready for the
market is just as important as the
raising of them and every minute
of time spent in properly preparing
the birds will pay dividends out
of proportion to the time spent
cautions Miss Cushman.

The service, it was explained,

are lifted by cranes onto the
