BOSTON, November 27.-A report
made public today before the twenty
nth anniversary Of the National
Council of Teachers of English de-
clared consolidation of the school
curriculum is the answer to the chal-
lenge of diminishing school revenues.
The report was edited by Miss Ruth
Mary Weeks Of Kansas City, who was
assisted by President William Allan
Nelson Of Smith College and Miss
Bess Goodykoontz, assistant commits
sioner Of the United States Once Of
Education.
Not only are schools being called
upon to furnish an education which
obviously will be worth its price" the
report said. but they are called upon
to do SO with shrinking revenues. The
answer to this challenge Is not cur
ricular curtailment. but curricular
consolidation. On the anvil of this
necessity education Is forging q new
program to whose economy no value
Is sacrificed ana which draws ground

port continued. Through its MANY

ties, and its opportunity for constant

asserted correlation Of subjects was a
step toward the vitalization of edu-
cation.
Education would not become better
he said, unless the relationships and
tnterrelationships of all subjects are
shown clearly and intelligently by the
process of correlation" Teaching of
English, he suggested. was the starting
point for effective correlation.
Many Objections Seen.
Neville's stand was questioned by
Alton r. Anderson. executive assist
ant of the Worcester, Mass, public
schools. who declared that, theoret
ically, he favored integrating English
with other subjects, but in practice he
saw many objections.
Are teachers interests varied
enough for them to work contentedly
with steady diet of a fusion OF SUBJ
tects?" he asked. Does not integra-
ton presuppose mixing interests with
disinterests, if We may use the term?'

NEW X-RAY TUBE
CLARIFIES WORK
Pictures So Plain Old Ones
Look Like Blurred Work
of Novice.
py the Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, October IA new
X-ray tube which makes pictures Of
the bones and organs of the body so
clear that old X-ray pictures appear
like the blurred work of q novice was
shown today before the American
Roentgen Ray Society.
Described as a rotating anode"
tube capable of using high energies,
the development was hailed by physi-
clans as one of the outstanding con-
tributions of the present X-ray meet
ing. The tube was shown by the Cen
eral Electric X-ray Corp. of Chicago as
a refinement Of laboratory curiosity
first made in 1914.
G. w. Files of the corporation said
that, as an example of its possible
ties, much clearer pictures of the lungs
were produced, enabling an earlier
and more accurate diagnosis of tuber-
culosis, which often begins near the
outside surfaces and does not reveal
itself In the early stages under ordi-
nary X-ray technique.
The new tube was made possible by
the development of metals capable of
withstanding high speeds on dry bear
tngs. In it the entire housing Of the
anode, or positive, side spins with a
speed Of 5000 revolutions per minute,
allowing the beam of electrons from
the negative side to focus on a small
point of a spinning diaphragm and re-
fleet the rays out of the tube for max
ing pictures.
The foc\,s on such small spot, about
one millimeter square, that the high
energies used would quickly melt the
metal If the rotating wheel were not
used.
Dangerous possibilities in the use Of
an X-ray shadowing material made
from the radioactive element thorium
was pointed out to members Of the
society by DR.. Robert B. Taft OF
Charleston, S. c.
Use Of q Geiger-Muller radiation
counter indicated that the usual
amount of the material given to pa
tient before an X-ray picture Is made
is dangerously close to the amount a
person can safely tolerate, he de.

BUTTE TO ANACONDA RACE

Bicycle riding, had its inning in days
gone by. Sprints and distance events
were given place and prominence on
the sports calendars Of the COS.
On July 4, 1896. a handicap bike
race was run from Butte to Anaconda.
There were 43 entries. There were
three riders starting from scratch.
Handicap times ranged from 3 to II
minutes. The men with the greatest
handicap started first. The race began
at Don from Main and Park streets,
Butte. Heavy rains caused the cyclists
trouble. When time arrived for the race,
only 81 of the 43 men faced the start
ing line.
The race was won by George
German of Butte, a 15-minute
scratch man, who was the first
to arrive at Anaconda.
The best time was made by r. L.
Bennett of Helena, who started
from scratch. His time wa l hour
and IA minutes, Germans time was
! hour and 81 minutes.
The race had a tough time getting
under way. At Main and Park streets,
street cars were running every few
minutes to the B. A. & P. depot where
throngs were headed for Anaconda to
attend the horse races. More than
$4,000 paid admissions were clicked at
the Anaconda races. Then too, steam
trains going to the Gardens made for
confusion. It was estimated that close
to 10000 people were huddled at the
street Intersection during a four-hour
period.

Northern Elk Herd
Slow to Leave the Park

The big northern elk herd, which
provides some of the finest big game
sport in the country when it disbands
and commences to migrate out of
Yellowstone park into Park county, is
still safely within the park boundar-
les and few animals have been killed
in the Gardiner area, according to late
reports from the Eagle Greek checking
station.
While the state fish and game COM
mission, along with the National Park
service, plans to reduce the great herd
by 1000 head this season in order to
place it IN a proper control basis and
within its grazing limitations, the kill,
so far has been extremely light.
The herd does not leave the park
until heavy SHOWS arrive to drive them
out into the region where the hunters
are located.
The Sun river territory has proved
a more successful hunting area for big
game hunters.

NEW LOW COST IN
DITCH BUILDING
POWDERVILLE FARMER BUILDS
IRRIGATION SYSTEM, EFFECT
ING 200 ACRES FOR 500

With flood irrigation increasing
in southeastern Montana, the 200
acre project developed on the j. H.
Graeber ranch near POwderville in
Powder River county is n of the
outstanding lOw-cost systems in
that section, according to N. A. ia
cobsen, extension agent for Powder
River and Custer counties.
In building this project. only 500
was spent for materials and the work
was done entirely by Mr.. Graeber and
his regular hired man. Their hours
and man labor chargeable to the project
would not exceed 50 per acre, Jacob
sen says.
A typical Powder River cattle ranch,
the Graeber place has several hundred
acres of very level river bottom LAND
that is suitable to hay production. Two
hundred acres of this bottom land is
diked for flood irrigation and 300 more
acres can be developed.
Crow creek, which has a drainage
area of nearly 100 square miles,. Is the
source of supply for the irrigation
system. MI. Graeber built a dirt diver
sion dam across the creek. This dam
is equipped with a steel outlet pipe to
release excess water, and riprapping
protects the dam.
Water Easily Backed
From his reservoir MI. Graeber ir-
rigates two alfalfa fields, n 40
acres and another go acres in size. The
surface of the fields has so little fall
that 24-inch retaining dikes around
the edges of the fields and across the
lower ends have proven sufficient to
back water over the entire area.
Hay yields on these fields ran as high
as a ton and a half per acre, Jacobsen
says, and in 1886 Mr.. Graeber cut neal
ly 100 tons of hay off 125 acres. n
of the best hay yields under flood r.
rigation in these counties for that year.
: Mr.. Graeber owns and controls
enough outside range to u a herd of
300 cattle on his place. He has neve
had a shortage of feed since the in
stallation of the flood irrigation Sys-
tenn. In fact, Jacobsen says, there was
a surplus of hay on the ranch during
the severe winter of 1885.
Hay in Excess of Needs
The possibilities for feed production
through flood irrigation on the Grae-
Der ranch will permit hay production
far in excess of the requirements Of
the place, Jacobsen says.
Mr.. Graeber started work on his IT.
rigation system in 1888, after it had
been surveyed by w. H. Lamphere who
was then extension agent for the two
counties. When Jacobsen succeeded
Lamphere, assistance with the project
was continued, and each year has seen
improvements in the system. A ten
year program for further developing
the system has been outlined.

as governor of Montana, was a speed
rider, though he started with a 10
minute handicap. The late E. H. Coon
ey, who served as postmaster of Great
Falls for eight years and was n OF
the best known editors of the state,
was a 17-minute handicap man. Ed was
among the missing when the race was
begun.
Bob Ellis and Charles Hooper, foot
ball stars, also got into the pedaling.
Hooper finished third. Both men had
seven-minute handicaps. ,
A dinner was rendered German and
Bennett upon their return to Butte in
the evening. The trip back to Butte of
the cyclists was made by train. Ben
nett's friends feted him when he re-
turned to the Capital city.
Fistic record books published by
T. S. Andrews and Richard K. Fox,
reveal that Jerry Mccarthy, the Walk
erville Pet, won his first five profess
sional bouts by knockouts. Jerry's first
defeat occurred in his sixth year OF ring
activity. A number of draws appear in
the records. A fellow townsman, Nose
LaFontisse, was the first fighter to
hand a dark one on Jerry's record.
Mccarthy took the count in the fifth
round.
Jerry had three bouts in 1897; six
in 1898; six in 1899; eight in 1900; four
in 1901. and six in 1902. His last bout
of 1902 was with LaFontisse. Jerry
hung up his gloves in 1908.
Mccarthy started his pro-career IN
Butte. He was a tough welterweight,
smart as they came, and wise to all
the tricks of the trade. Jerry is now a
resident of California.

STATE WILL SHIP
$4,000 TURKEYS
THOUGH CROP SLIGHTLY OVER
NORMAL, BUYING CONDITIONS
INDICATE GOOD PRICES

Although it is impossible accur-
ately to estimate the price turkeys
will bring this year, conditions are
such that the price will be high
enough to Justify Montana growers
in purchasing feeds to make up a
balanced ration, according to Miss
II. E. Cushman, extension poultry
specialist at Montana State college.
Miss Cushman finds that while the
national turkey crop is considerably
larger than last year, it is still only
three percent above normal. Storage
supplies are well cleared and as buy
ing power of consumers is better and
meat prices good, turkey prices should
run about the same as last year." she
believes.
Montana will probably market about
$4,000 turkeys this season, Miss Cush-
man added. This is about the same
numbe mat state growers put on the
market last year. Figuring that the
turkeys will dress out between 10 and
IL pounds each, the total for the year
will be approximately $50, 900 pounds.
Quality Excellent
The quality Of Montana's turkeys
will be excellent, especially in the
western part of the state where grow
ers were better able to feed a BALANCED
ration.
In reviewing the state turkey Situa-
ton Miss Cushman calls attention to
the shift that has taken place in the
Montana turkey population. Today the
largest commercial producers are found
In western Montana. Sanders, Missoula
and Ravalli counties are heavy COM
mercial producers, she said. On the
other hand Fergus and Judith Basin
counties comprise the largest farm
flock area. While there are a few large
commercial producers in these counties,
the small growers far outnumber them
and account for the bulk of the pro-
duction in that section.
POult Orders Near Capacity
Miss Cushman completes her review
Of the turkey outlook with a hint to
growers. With feed prices high, she
said, the farm flock owner might be
money ahead to dispose of his breeding
flock rather than purchase the neces-
sary winter feed. If this is done, how
ever, she advises the grower to get his
order for poults in at once, because
hatcherymen already report near ca
pacity orders.

WHIRL AT MAT GAME

Though many fans were mol aware
of it, Jerry Mccarthy, in addition to
his boxing, would take a whirl at the
mat game. On July 4, 1908, Jerry, hav-
ing no boxing engagements, cooked up
a wrestling match with young Earne
of Livingston for a side bet of 500.
Several towns were offered the bout.
The match was staged at Dillon and
Jerry won, his winnings including the
side bet and 10 percent of a slim gate.
Earne received only enough from the
gate to pay his railroad fare and hotel
expenses.
