Herald Picks EN- Right
(for Once); Tourney
Predictions Materialize

Now that the district tourna-
ment Is over we, the Herald
sOOthsayers, figure 1t is time we
do a little Dragging, SO bear with
us while we tell you how, may
we say uncannliy? we picked the
first four teams i'm the order they
finished, and before the tOurna-
ment drawings ere made.
Long about two weeks ago,
when everyone I'm the district en-
cept n retired farmer near Re-
r. and a McElroy matron had
entered his own guess as to how
the teams would place, the Her
aid GREY decided to get i'm the
game. SO the foreman called a
huddle, and from ii emerged a
forecast that materialized - the
first four places, at least-when
the snarling Wildcats of Plenty
wood vanquished Antelope H. $.
30 to 10 I'm the final game Friday
night. Orley shorts BIuejays of
Outlook helped IL chart by whip
ping Flaxville for third place and
the latter team went to fourth,
just where we placed them.
But, folks, it's all simple hear
say that the tournament commit
tee is going to call us I'm next
year before the tournament draw
ings are held.

BLANKS FOR SEED
LOANS NOW Being
Completed HERE
Set Up Machinery for Loans
to Farmers This Week
in P~lentywood

Applications for emergency crop
and feed loans for 1897 are now be-
ing received at Plentywood by Ar
mold Horgen, field supervisor of the
Emergency Crop and Feed Loan sec
ton of the Farm Credit administra-
ton.
These loans will be made only to
farmers who cannot obtain credit
from any other source, as provided
by regulations issued by the Cover
nor of the Farm Credit administra-
ton. The money loaned will be lin
tied to the farmers immediate and
actual cash needs for growing his
1887 crops or for the purchase of
feed for livestock and in no instance
may exceed $500.
Farmers are not eligible for these
loans If they can borrow from a n
individual, production credit ascot
alton, bank, or other concern. En-
Urgency crop and feed loans will not
be made by the Farm Credit admin
istration to standard rehabilitation
clients of the Resettlement admin
~istration whose current needs are
provided for by Resettlement.
AS in the past, the security for
these loans will consist OF a first
lien on the crop financed if the loan
is for the production of crops. and
if for the purchase of feed for live
stock, then a first lien on the live
stock to be fed. Landlords, or others
having an interest In the crops or
the livestock to be fed, will be re-
quired to waive their claims in favor
of the lien to the Governor Of the
Farm Credit administration until
the loan is repaid.
Checks in payment of the APP
proved loans will be issued by the
Regional Emergency Crop and Feed
Loan office at Spokane, Wash.

PROJECT WORK TO
RESUME DESPITE
DRASTIC RULINGS
Commissioners Plan Machine
less Projects as Ruling
Hats Work

Employment for Sheridan coun-
ty WPA workers will continue de-
spite drastic orders o in effect
that governmental agencies sponsor
ing projects must pay the total cost
of all materials used and equipment
rented in the future" was the state-
ment of County Commissioner A. j.
Olson. WPA regulations are that
work is under the jurisdiction of the
Sheridan county board of commits
%sioners.
The board this week was making
plans to carry on projects, although
county funds are not available to
meet the demands of the head WPA
office in the recent ruling. The
change in policy will affect many
counties as many have reached their
limit of bonded Indebtedness and
have exhausted their poor funds.
The ruling will call a halt on a
travelling project near Homestead,
Mr.. Olson said, as no money is avail
dDlt u rent lIuChS anu tqulpiltul.
A travelling project near Plenty
wood, which is nearing completion,
will be finished, it was the commits
sioners' belief.
1t was said today that 1912 persons
are employed on projects in Sheri-
dan, which includes a sewing prof.
ect at Plentywood and another at
Medicine Lake. 1t is the commission
ers' plan to keep workers employed
on jobs which will not necessitate
an outlay of money for material and
equipment.
One project slated is the construc-
tion of a machine shed In Plenty
wood. The present county sheds will
be torn down and material salvaged
together with $4,000 feet of lumber
already on hand for this purpose.
from WPA, will be used In the con-
struction.
Mr.. Olson stated that many men
will. get employment on r~if-raffing
work on county bridges. Similar
projects will be announced.

Light Wheat Should Not
Be Used for Seeding

Wheat having a test weight OF
less than so pounds per bushel
should not be used for seed except
in extreme cases, advises w. O.
Whitcomb, superintendent of the
Montana grain inspection laborat-
DRY. He bases his recommendations
on extensive tests conducted at the
Montana agricultural experiment
station. If light weight seed is used,
il should be ~recleaned to remoye
the shrunken kernels. More care
than usual should be uset in prepar-
ing the seed bed for light seed and
the rate of seeding can be the same
as for heavier wheat.
