JOSEPH M. DIXON DIED
TUESDAY AT MISSOULA
Served in Legislature, Both Houses
of Congress, Governor
and in Cabinet.

Joseph M. Dixon, aged 81, who
had served Montana as legislator,
congressman, U. S. senator, and
governor and was first assistant
secretary of the interior in the
President Hoover cabinet, died at
his home in Missoula, Tuesday ev-
ening at 6:15 of heart disease,
from which he had been a suf-
ferer more than a year.
Mr.. Dixon's health had begun to
fail at the time of the Hoover
Roosevelt campaign, but he cam
paigned for his chief in Montana,
at what his friends considered
considerable detriment to his
physical well-being. The addresses
he made in this state in the latter
part of 1882 were his final public
appearances.
After this service to the Repub-
lean leader, Mr.. Dixon returned
to Washington to complete the
Hoover period with the department
of the interior. Secretary Ickes,
the successor to Secretary Wilbur,
retained Mr.. Dixon to assist in the
reorganization Of the department.
This added service endured until
less than a year ago, when MI.
Dixon returned to his home here.
The decline Of his health was
rapid from then on, although he
rallied frequently.
In 1912 Mr.. Dixon was cam
paign manager of the Theodore
Roosevelt Bull Moose party.
Mr.. Dixon is survived by his
wife, daughter of a pioneer Mis-

CANADA TO JOIN IN INTER-
NATIONAL WHEAT AGREEMENT
NeighbOring Farmers North Of
Us Will Cooperate in Low
ering Acreage.

Canada has taken steps to
comply with the International
Wheat Agreement, according to
a report by the foreign service of
the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, just received by J. c. Taylor,
state director of extension at
Bozeman.
Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and
Alberta, which produce about 95
percent of the Canadian wheat
crop, have passed nearly identi-
cal legislation, whereby a market
ing control program will be put
into effect for the 1884 crop, if
estimates show that it will total
more than 1856, 900 900 bushels.
Canadian farmers are thus CO.
operating with the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration pro-
gram of farmers of Montana and
other wheat-growing regions of
the United States to hold wheat
supplies to a point which will al
low wheat growers to continue in
business at a profit" Mr.. Taylor
says.
The provincial legislation is so
drafted that it may be fitted into
a national Canadian marketing
program, legislation for which has
been under consideration for some
time at Ottawa.
1t is estimated that 1886, DOC, 900
bushels is the wheat crop which
normal yields should give on an
acreage IS percent under the av-
erage for the Swear period, 1881
80, the period on which the world
wheat agreement is based.
Provincial or joint provincial
and Dominion boards, with broad
prowers, would be formed to ad-
minister the program. The legis-
lation is to terminate on July 81,
1885, when the wheat agreement
terminates.
Success of the plan in Canada
is expected to have an important
effect on the world market, as
Canada is the largest exporter.

POISONING OF HOPPERS
PROGRESSING FAVORABLY
Mixing Crews Are Busy at Lodge
Grass, st. Xavier and Hardin,
PREPARING Bait.

Poisoning of grasshoppers is 60
ing on in several of the commune
ties Of the county where the in
festation is threatening the crops.
Mixing crews are busy at Lodge
Grass, st. Xavier and Hardin pre-
pairing the poison bait for spread
ing by farmers.
Thus far the grasshoppers are
largely confined to localized areas
in the county. There is very lit
tie danger of damage by the grass
hoppers on the range. There are
not any more than a normal num-
Der on the range, except in a few
isolated spots, according to County
Agent Geo. w. Gustafson, who has
made a rather extended survey
over large parts of the county.
Farmers are urged to poison to

protect their own crops from
grasshoppers which hatch out or
the farm or near their immediate
vicinity.
Plenty OF poison bait is avail
able for all infested areas, If con
fined to crops.
The cricket control work has
been started in the county under
the direction of Mr.. Cowan, fed
eral entomologist. Special camps
under his charge have been es-
tablished in the Pryor and Wolf
mountain districts, where cricket
in~festations have reached alarm
ing proportions.
