HELENA BOY GETS
POST IN BOMBAY
WILFRED JOHNSON, SON OF RE-
TIRING STATE OFFICIAL, EN-
TIERS FOREIGN BANKING

It's a long way from Helena to Bonn
bay; it's quite a step for a young boy
from the commercial department. Of
Helena high school to the foreign de-
partment of the National City bank of
New York city, with offices in the far
east.
But this is the story of Wilfred
johnson, Harvard, 1885, 24-year-old
son of MI. and Mrs. Frank H. johnson
of Helena, who has Just been assigned
to the position of foreign manager of
the National City bank at Bombay, In
dia. He is now enroute to his new post
by way of London and Paris, where he
will spend a few days comforting with
officers of the bank.
A few months ago Wilfred johnson
was an under-employ Of the Hawaiian
Steamship Co., with offices in New
York. In this capacity he attracted at
tention of an officer of the Asia club,
who told him the National City bank
was giving an examination the next
day for young men who wished to en-
ter it's foreign department.. Young
johnson took the examination with
$50 others and he was n of four Sc
lected. He has spent the intervening
time in the foreign department. Of the
bank at New York, learning all about
foreign exchange, bills" and manners
and customs of managers or diplomats
of the New York bank, who are sent
abroad.
Wilfred Johnson's father is the re-
firing superintendent of Montana
banks. For several months Mr.. and Mrs.
Johnson have been planning a trip
around the world, to sail about Dec. l.
They had no idea, when they planned
the trip, that their son would be in
Bombay to meet them. But this turns
out to be a part of the story.
Young johnson soon will be installed
in bachelors apartments over the Ma
tional City banks office in Bombay.
When his father and mother move
westward to the far east and land in
India, he will be on the pier to well
come them.

RANGE PROGRAM
GETS UNDERWAY

With the go ahead" signal given to
county extension agents and Secretar-
les of agricultural conservation com
mittees, the 1886 range improvement
program will be put into operation in
Montana with all possible speed, j. G.
Taylor, director, Montana Extension
service, advises.
Complete information on operation
procedure has been sent to county
agents and committee secretaries, and
county International meetings will
soon be called.
Participation in the program is vol
untary and open to all stockmen on
privately-owned or privately-controlled
land.
Stockmen desiring to participate
should first make application to their
local county agricultural conservation
committee. A simple postcard form for
this purpose may be obtained from the
county committee.
After making application, stoekmen
will be visited by a range examiner
who will list the range building prac-
ticeS the stockman wishes to perform.
After the practices have been checked
by the county committee, the stock
man may proceed with the work. The
final steps are report of performance
and application for payment.
The range program Is a part OF the
general 1896 agricultural program
which in this state is under the west
ern division of the AAA.

WORK STARTS NOW ON
next YEARS GARDEN

Right o is a good time to perform
a number of tasks which will help next
years garden, advises E. E. Isaac, eX-
tension ho%rticulturist. Autumn is an
excellent time, he states, to check over
last summers mistakes and make plans
for the coming season.
One of the most important chores is
to burn old plant refuse left in the
garden. While this will destroy humus
needed in the soil, the disadvantage
will be more than offset by the destruc-
ton of insects which remain in garden
trash during their over-wintering stage.
Liberal applications of partially de-
cayed barnyard manure will make up
for the loss of humus.
Late fall blowing offers another
mean of destroying insects in the gar
den, Isaac says. Some species of in
sects burrow into the soil and remain
there over the winter. Turning them
up with a pillow exposes them to the
freezing temperatures. Fall blowing
also tends to make a heavy soil more
mellow or friable. If manure is to be
added, it should be spread before fall
blowing.
Other suggestions offered by the
horticulturist are the erecting of snow
fences, diking of lower edges of gar
dens to hold the spring run-off, and
digging Of new hotbed pits.

ROLLER SKATING STARS

In n gay ninetieS and several dec
ades following, every town had its
roller skating rink; every town had its
champion speed skater. Roller racing
drew capacity crowds. Jimmy Reynolds,
was perhaps the best known of roller
skating champions in Montana. For SO
years, James engaged in competitions
from coast to coast, and at one time
was recognized as national champion,
Wally Bradford, still a resident Of
Butte, was the proud holder of the
roller skating championship of Mon
tana," from 1907-19O9.
Art Dubie, also among Butte pres
ent, was another speedster who could
be found at any or all roller race
meets. Rlckard, and Bell. along with
Dubie. and the old man of the rollers.
Jimmy Reynolds, were in there skat-
