the Brewster Center to discuss the
role OF the Negro in the present

Stresses Labor Unity
Among the important points
brought out by Mr. Doll in his dis
cussion, was the fact that We had
been divided blacks against whites,
in the fields OF labor for a long
time; that the Negro laborer was
always given the worst jobs, and
that the whites thought that It was
all right FOR Negroes 20 have the
worst Jobs, because they seemed
content 10 have them. But now
that both white and black labor

WAS FOG THICK?

BILL LYON OF HELENA CAUGHT
FISH IN TT TWO MILES FROM

Bill Lyon, who fabricates doors

things, including yarns, at the
Brown Bros. Lumber Co. at Helena,
offers this one In competition for
the medal offered by the Liars
club:
"Fog? Why, you fellers don't know
anything about fog. Now, I've seen
fogs what are fogs. just fer instance:
When I lived on the Maine coast.
we used to fish in a river known as
Crooked river, which emptied into the
sea not far from where lived.
zone day we went fishin' It was
foggy, for sure, but we fingered that
If we couldn't see the water we prob
ably could locate it by finding the
bank.
"Fishir' was sure good in that
stream. If you had six hooks on your
line. and cast her well out, you'd
catch six fish-iest like that.
well we didn't have any fancy

sinkers and bats.
This day we finally got to where
we thought the river was and started
fishin'. There was nothin' to 1t.
Finally, just when we had our sacks
full and thought Of quittin', the fog
lifted We found we we're two miles
from the river. The dern fog had been
so thick the fish took it for water.
Nov, that's real story, young
feller. I could tell you better ones,
but I'm afraid you wouldn't believe me.

MANY STOCKMEN
REBUILDING HERDS
w. p. SULLIVAN, SQUARE BUTTE
CATTLEMAN, SAYS RANCHNfEN
BUY INSTEAD OF SELL
Jay G. Diamond, Agricultural Stat
istician at Helena, Reports Market
ing Of Montana Livestock This Year
Has Been Lightest in Long Period.

Substantial progress Is being
made In rebuilding cattle holdings
on many of the larger ranches In
northern Montana following the
heavy reductions in herds made by
q large number of stockmen dur
ing the drOuth period which ended
In 1887, according to W., p. Sulli-
van, proprietor of the famous
Square Butte ranch.
Many rancherS did not ship out any
breeding stock at all this fall and
others, instead Of shipping, purchased
rather heavily towards the end of the
season, Sullivan said Cattlemen are
increasing their herds this fall In
many cases by holding their calves and
other young stock, which ordinarily
are sold during the fall season.
Sullivan shipped virtually no cattle
this year and Increased his own cattle
holdings by purchasing a bunch Of
steers. Good range conditions and an
abundance Of hay make the present
winter an ideal one for cattle, accord
ing to Sullivan.
when the season ended in 1897,
said Sullivan, cattle ranches In our
part OF the state had reduced their
stock until the cattle population Of the
area was little more than IS or 40
percent Of normal. However, nearly all
Of the cattlemen are rebuilding their
herds as rapidly as possible and 1t will
be only short time until as many
cattle are being run in northern Mon
tana as we had before the long period
Of drouth."
Some $50 head Of wild antelope now
are ranging on the Sullivan ranch, a
marked reduction as compared with the
number which regularly ran In that
part of the state until q few years
ago, Sullivan said Several years ago
many of the animals were killed when
an open season was declared on ante
lope.
Marketing Of livestock by Montana
growers this year have been the small
est In many seasons. Jay G. Diamond,
federal bureau of agricultural econom-
les statistician at Helena, said.
Sales Of sheep and lambs have been
the smallest since 1925, he said. He
feeder cattle has existed In the state
since early fall, with few sellers.
Range conditions In the state Dec.
/ were especially good" and COM
pared favorably with the good grass
years of 1929, the bureaus monthly
range and livestock report said.
Good stock feeding conditions over
the state for the coming season were
predicted.
Montana cattle entered the winter
in above-average condition, Diamonds
report said and were rated at 90 per-
cent normal on Dec. /, six points
better than year ago and three points
above the 10-year average.
Sheep and lambs also were in good
condition at 81 percent Of normal, four
points better than Year, ago and two
points above the 10-year average.

RODENT CONTROL
SAVES FORAGE
RESULTS OF MEAGHER COUNTY
CAMPAIGNS ARE PLEASING
TO FARMERS
Started in 1897 1t Was Continued IN
1888 At Request Of IS Percent of
landowners; Federal Assistance Was
Given in Financing Work.

So well satisfied were Meagher
county ranchers with success of
the rodent control campaign waged
on countrywide basis in 1887 that
more than IS percent Of the land
owners favored its continuance in
1888, says E. p. Circuit, county
agent.
Where the 1897 campaign was done
on wholesale scale, work in 1888 was
more Of a cleanup job Of gopher in
tested spots, circuit said. In both cam
paigns the state rodent control law
was invoked to make 1t possible to
work on all land.
The first year 80 tons Of poison bait
were used on 1858, 1854 acres Of private
ly owned and federal lands at q total
cost OF $50, 240.87. This year "a tons
Of bait were used on 1,158936 acres
at total cost Of $20,69434 With an
average Of 80 percent control, 1t Is
estimated that the two campaigns have
saved forage that will increase the
county's income many times over the
cost Of control work
Through its experimental AAA range
conservation program, Meagher county
received assistance in its rodent con-
troll work. This amounted to either is
or 20 percent of the range building
allowance, depending on the pre-
classification Of the ranching unit by
the county agricultural conservation
committee, Circuit explained.
circuit says that where in 1897 a
totally unused hillside presented a
generally grazed appearance because
of gophers, this same area produced
a stand of wheatgraSs this year that
appeared untouched except for random
spots indicating evidence Of a gopher
burrow.
All Of the work of planning and pre-
pairing for the 1888 campaign was done
by the county agricultural planning
board and excellent cooperation was
received from private landowners, the
forest service, biological survey, county
officials and others, circuit said.

F. POLUTNIK SR., PIONEER,
PASSES AT GREAT FAILS

Death further depleted the dimin-
ishing ranks of Montana pioneers
when Frank Polutnik ST., 70, of Belt
died at a Great Falls hospital from
a paralytic stroke and injuries re-
ceived in a fall.
Born in Graz, Austria, March IS,
1859, Polutnik for several years was
engaged in farming and cattle ranch
ing near Belt and Fort Benton. At
various times he was a miner and
saloon operator.
Coming to Montana in April, 1877,
from Hungary, Polutnik first settled
at Livingston, later moving to Coke
dale and then to Big Timber. In 1895
he went to Belt, where he had lived
since. His wife died in November, 1887.
Polutnik is survived by three sons,

MATERNAL AND INFANT
DEATH RATES ARE LOW

Infant and maternal mortality rates
in Montana In 1887 were the lowest in
history, the vital statistics department
Of the state board Of health said IN
its biennial report.
Lucien L. Benepe, registrar Of vital
statistics, said the infant mortality
rate in 1887 was 5O.2 per 1000 live
births. The maternal mortality rate,
he said, was "a per 1000 live births.
A baby was born on an average Of
every 81 minutes during the biennium,
while a death occurred on the average
of every 85 minutes. The two-year
average was % births and II deaths
every day.

emma eventually VIII defeat its
/ aggTessor, Japan, and viii enjoy
at least one important benefit
| from the war-the building of a
new national unity which Is stead
lY becoming stronger in defense
OF the country against the invaders.
That Is the opinion of Mrs. Ku Young
Lee, formerly Miss Rose Hum, Butte
born Chinese, who has Just returned
to Butte from nine-year stay in hel
homeland
One Of the more terrible aspects OF
the war in China is that probably as
many civilians are killed es actual
combatants, according to Mrs. Lee
who is the wife of Chinese govern
ment official
1.-The danger comes to civilians from
bombing plane raids over densely popu-
lated centers. In these times great
numbers Of civilians may be killed, .
Mrs. Lee says.
Before the fall Of Canton the troops
were many thousand miles from the
city, but it was bombed constantly for
Is months. You never are able TO relax
completely, but you eventually build
up feeling in regard to the bombs
a feeling Of trusting to luck and hop
ing that 1t is not your turn"
Left Canton Oct. 81
Mrs. Lee remained in Canton until
shortly before the city fell on Oct. 81,
and then departed when women and
children were evacuated. Before leav-
ing the city to the Japanese the Chi
neSe destroyed all important plants
and buildings to make the japanese
victory an empty one.
That China will ultimately be tri-
umphant in the war Is the belief of
Mrs. Lee because our country is now
becoming unified, probably more so
than at any other time in history.
China is such a large nation, both
IN size and population. that it has been
difficult IN the past to instill feeling
Of nationalism, she says.
1.-THE war has done that for us be-
cause Chinese people are determined
a little country like Japan. The war
has given all Chinese a common pur-
pose and the new unity will carry the
country to greater heights. There are
no sectional differences now. The
people have a common money. Ma
tional roads are being built and other
projects are being carried out to
the nation internally"
Develops Back Country
The puppet governments established
In some provinces cannot survive, Mrs
Lee says.
1.-THE figureheads leading them are
controlled by the Japanese and dis
gruntled politicians or others who can
not command the respect of their
people. The people are determined
that they shall regain control of their
Since Japan has been blockading the
China coast to cut off munitions, China
has turned its attention towards its
back door"-the interior, to develop
there or to import them
from European nations.
= Mrs. Lee says she does not know If
there Is definite agreement between
Russia and China but believes that
Russia, like other countries, is willing
TO assist the Chinese government.
The duties of Chinese woman In
wartime are much the same as those
other women under the same circum-
stances would be called upon to do.
They are principally concerned with
relief work and particularly giving aid
10 wounded and orphaned children.
Graduate Of Butte High
Mrs. Lee was born in Butte and was
graduated from Butte high school a
