Government Plan To Limit
Crop Production To Be
Put in Motion

Production control associations
of county wheat growers, which
will be organized soon under the
plans of the Agricultural Adjust
ment administration, will provide
the individual farmer his direct
contact with the Wheat admins
tration and its plan to compensate
farmers for reducing their pro-
duction.
Preliminary neighborhood meet
ings, based on school districts or
voting districts, will offer oppor-
tunity for every farmer to sign
applications for participation in
the reduction program, with its
compensating payments. These
meetings will be called by men es-
pecially appointed to direct the
organization work in the county.
Representatives elected at each
of these local meetings by the
farmers who decide to cooperate
with the reduction program will
constitute the board of directors
of the county wheat control asso-
citation, the organization which
will direct local application of the
wheat plan. This board of direc-
tors, or control board, will in turn
elect officers, including a presi-
dent, vice president and secretary.
The secretary will usually be the
man in direct charge of the organ
ization features.
An executive committee of
three, with the president of the
county board of directors serving
as chairman, viii then be elected
by the board of directors. This ex-

Out-of-town automobiles began
coming in Saturday afternoon, as
people from the lower country
drove mountainward to escape the
hot weather, and before Sunday
night campers were scattered
along both the Main Fork and
West Fork of Rock creek. Fair
weather, with the usual cool
breezes at night, prevailed during
the holidays, giving a perfect out
ing to those who spent two, three
and four days in this region.
During the two days that the
Red Lodge-C ooke road from this
city to the Twin lakes was open
to travel, more than 700 lars made
the trip, according to various
counts taken at the Morrison
Knudsen highway camp. Monday
morning $50 cars went up the
switchback route, and at least 500
had driven through the highway
camp before 10 o'clock Tuesday
morning. Traffic was regulated
and carefully directed to prevent
confusion and accident, and dang
err spots on the detour below
Richel's were marked by road
signs. Some delay was exper-

TWO CRASHES OCCUR
NIGHT ON
NEW STATE

Two auto collisions occurred on
the state highway between Red
Lodge and the Piney Dell dance
pavilion Saturday night, as cars
moved fast and frequently up and
down the new road. No person
was seriously injured, although
four cars were badly cracked up.
Joe Cobetto, driving in to Red
Lodge at about 10 o'clock in the
evening, met another car weaving
out along the grade. Joe pulled to
the right, and stopped his car, but
could not avoid a crash with the
other machine, driven by John
Homan of Washoe.

CITY PROPERTIES
ASSESSED LOWER
Livestock Values Slightly
Lower Annual Assessors
Report Shows

Assessment on city and town
lots in Carbon county this year
was generally 10 per cent lower
than in 1882, as shown by the an
nual report of Floyd Gebo, asses
sor, to the state board of equaliza-
ton. Farm and grazing lands,
which were taxed on reduced as
easements last year, have about
the same value this year, accord
ing to the assessors figures.
In 1882, the full cash value of
city and town lots was totalled at
$945, 239, the cash value Of the
improvements at s2,133,592. The
taxable valuation of lots and i'm
provements was 1928, GAG. This
year the taxable value of lots and
improvements is placed at $780,
1872, the cash value of lots total
ling $856,591, of improvements,
$1,93O,681.
All dry and irrigable farm and
grazing lands and state land un-
der contract are valued at $6,672,-
413, with a taxable valuation, in
Guiding the improvements on those
lands, of $2,348,312. The taxable
valuation was slightly more last
year, being $2,349 ,905, as the
county was then levying taxes
against land that has since been
taken under tax deed.
The cash value of irrigated land
in the county is stated to be s4,-
les, of dry land, 1864, 1929; of
grazing land, $1,793,589; of state
lands under contract, $18,015.
Land assessments were lowered
in 1882 by permission of the state
board of equalization, irrigable
land being reduced 10 per cent and
grazing land by 25 per cent.
Assessment on the total of 49,
843 cattle in the county was $685.
542, with a taxable valuation of
$135, 100. Stock and range cattle,
three-year-olds and older, make
up the greatest part of the cattle,
1854 head. The average cash val
ne of cattle was stated as: pure
bred, $50.35; coming yearling,
$14U7; coming two-year-old, 1923;
coming three-year-old steer and
stock bull, $31.62; range, $21.55;
dairy, $34.23.
Although the price of horse
flesh throughout the country has
been rising during the past year,
horses and mules have a lower
average value for assessment this
year. The report says that the
average unbroken range animal is
worth $7.91, the average worth of
a work animal being figured at
$3.50. Purebreds are assessed at
a higher figure this year. The
total value of horses and mules is
$121y191, taxable value at s40,398.
The county's sheep represent
$119,818, the assessment on So, 1928
head giving a taxable valuation of
$39,939. Swine, numbering 1916
with a taxable valuation of $1,733,
are given an average valuation of
1886 per pig. Other animals and
their average values are: bees,
5000 per hive; goats, $3.50; foxes,
$40.
The total value of the county's
was placed at $658,864,
to be levied on $219,621.
Next to railroad trackage and
equipment, automobiles constitute
the largest item on the personal
property list. The assessment on
2,184 autos was s297,224 taxable |

PREPARE REPORT
ON WATER site
Federal Aid For Storage
Projects in Beartooths
Will Be Sought


for water storage at the head
waters of Rock creek have been in
process of preparation for the
past week, since surveys on the
upper reaches of the Main Fork
and the West Fork were complet-
ed by engineers and representa-
tives Of farmers dependent on the
mountain water for irrigation.
The report will be completed
this week, and forwarded to ]. s.
James, state engineer, who will
include it among the Montana pro-
jects for which aid will be sought
from the federal government I'M
der the industrial recovery and
public works bill. A united effort
of state and county officials will
be made toward the accomplish
ment of the plan to relieve the
annual flood troubles and water
shortages caused by the spring
run-off of mountain water.
At Glacier lake, a body of water
on one of the upper forks of the
Main Fork under Mt. Rearguard,
engineers estimated that 5000
acre-feet of water could be stored
by construction of the necessary
dams. The northernmost of the
H~ellroaring lakes was declared to
have a small storage possibility.
At Quinnebaugh meadows, on
the West Fork above the Silver
Run camp, two sites are possible.
The upper meadow is estimated to
constitute a possible reservoir that
might hold $500 ac~re-feet, and
the lower meadow was estimated
to be capable Of retaining 5000
acre-feet.
There is a natural damsite in
the rock walled gorge that carries
the outlet of Glacier lake, accord
ing to the surveyors. An arch
type dam of concrete could be
built that would effectively raise
the water level of the lake. At
Quinnebaugh meadows, dams of
the gravity-fill type would be
necessary. Measurements taken at
the sites provide basis for designs
of a 100-foot dam below the lower
meadow, and a dam 80 feet high
to back water up on the upper
meadow.
Several lakes, such as Septem-
Der Morn and Basin lake were con-
sidered impractical for conversion
into reservoirs, as their outlets
drain through slide rock, and
would be difficult to retain by
means of dams.
Those who assisted the engin-
in the survey were E. w.
Draper, Frank ]. O'Connor, M. E.
Martin, James Brophy and Harry
Smith.
A conservation plan on the
Clark's Fork river, suggesting a
dam on the upper reaches of the
stream, possibly in the Box cam
yon, was brought to the attention
of the state engineer some time
ago. Water backed up on the
Clark's Fork could be made avail
able to Rock creek users by mean
of a large canal, built to connect
with Rock creek near Joliet, ac-
cording to n plan that has been
put forward.

GRANT CHARGES
ALLEYS WASTE

The District is cheating itself
annually out of large sums of
money by continuing to tolerate
the presence of alley slums in the
heart of other wise valuable city
blocks.
This was the charge of Lieut..
Col. U. S. Grant, director of Pub
lie Buildings and Parks, today
when he branded inhabited alleys
as a municipal extravaganza.
There are more than 10000 per
sons living in shacks on property
which would otherwise be valu-
able Colonel Grant said. These
people bear but a smallest fraction
OF the District tax burden.
To support his claim, Colonel
Grant cited one alley, centrally
located, in a block bounded by ex-
tremely valuable property. Alley
dwellings there bring a tax return
of $3.50 annually, whereas sur
rounding street property brings to
the District Golfers nearly $26, 900.

D. {. WILL RULE
PARK ROADS

Park roads, heretofore under
the exclusive jurisdiction of the
director of Public Buildings and
Parks, will henceforth be in
cluded with District roads by the
District Commissioners when they
formulate road construction plans.
This was revealed today by
Lieut.. Col. U. S. Grant, present

reaching such an agreement with
Major John c. Gotwals, District
Engineer Commissioner.
Commissioner Gotwals is ex-

Two motives believed to lie
behind the proposal are to focus
more attention on pressing
need for road construction work
in public parks here and to in
sure better cooperation in plan
ming repairs on District roads
converging with highways in
cluded in the park system.

UNDER IRON
PROCESS
Conferees Expected to Smooth
Out Differences at Their
Session Today

Senate and House conferees are
scheduled to meet today in an ef-
fort to iron out differences in the
1884 District supply bill as it
passed the two bodies of Congress.
Indications were that an agree
ment would be reached without
much delay, although a fight was
expected over the Federal lump
sum contribution to the District.
The House adopted the Budget
Bureau recommendation and voted
a $5,700,000 contribution, whi ii e
the Senate added 100000.
House, Senate Differences
House conferees also are ex-
pected to object to the Senate's
action in reappropriating funds
previously appropriated for other
purposes.
The bill as it passed the House
carried in excess of $30,000,000.
The bill as the Senate approved
it provides more than 100000, 900
but actually appropriates only
$29, 900.
BIantOn In Conference
The District supply bill was the
first appropriation measure to be
sent to Congress by the Admins
tration and carried out all pro-
visions of the economy act.
Estimates sent up by the White
House were $6,000,000 under the
total of the bill which was killed
in the House on March 4.
Representative Thomas L.
Blanton (DO of Texas, who killed
the first bill because the Senate
had raised the lump sum contri-
button, is one of the House con-
ferees on the new bill.
