Prepare for County
Acreage Inspection
School For Those to Conduct
Inspection Held
Here

A school of instruction for field in
spectors to check wheat acreapes under
the allotment plan was conducted h
brentwood during the past week. In
charge were Carl Peterson from the
extension department at Bozeman. who
had charge of setting up the wheat al
lotment organization in Sheridan coun-
ty.
There were 49 applicants who attend
ed the school. OF this number, 50 will
be selected for the work. A complete
list OF applicants, together with their
markings, have been forwarded to Boze-
man where the final selections are to
be determined.
The wheat allotment committee x
pressed the hope that actual field in
spectlon will get under way next week.
At the request of the local commit
tee only those men who have contracts
some immediate member Of his fam
lily will be approved. The idea is to
apportion the work among the farmers
and to people to have no other en-
oloyment.
Inspectors receive $500 a un It
or their work, and out of this they
must pay their own helpers and per-
expenses. 1t is believed they can
over about three units a day.
A strong effort had been made to
the inspection work dispensed
within Sheridan county this year on
Of the drouth, but administra-
officers in Washington declared it
ould not be passed.
MIR Peterson, while conducting the
chool, paid special tribute to the wheat
llotment organization in Sheridan
declaring that it ranked among
ne first in low cost of association ex-
In some of the smaller coun-
les" said Mr.. Peterson, "the entire
econd payment will be used up in
expenses, while several others ran as
Ugh as three and four cents" The
ost in Sheridan county will be only
bout 16 cents, leaving a balance OF
4 cents for the producer after the
overnment deducts one cent.
The annual meetings Of community
EXAMINATIONS will be held next week
hen members Of the county aasocia-
on unit will be selected. Early in
lily the annual meeting Of the as
will be held, when a board
directors will be named for the COM
& year.

Presumably hid In q room In the
rear OF the building the prow1er re-
moved a portion of a door to gain

3 TICKETS In PRIMARY ELECTION .UI,YH
Ribd Steps Aside
For n Friend

The comradeship of the pioneer-a
tie that binds friends of old settler DAYS
together with a mutual understanding
and affection that modern civilization
can scarcely appreciate-demonstrated
itself again in Plentywood this week.
Forrest Goodman and Gus Riba had
hled for state senator. They were
both staunch Democrats, but that was
beside the point. They were pioneer
friends. Neither wanted to oppose the
other. Mr.. Riba concluded to with
draw, insisting that his name will not
appear on the primary ballot.
When it was all over, it was hard
to tell which was the happier, Good
man or Riba. And the pioneer friend
is warmer than ever.

leans were still short of two Offices

certed effort, and several of those seek
