Senior SNAPSHOTS


As | turn the album of my old
schoolmates' pictures, | find the pic
ture of Paul Risley. How well re-
member him! Let's sect was back
in the gay old days of 1895 when
Paul joined our class. That's the
date all right because he took the
title of the smallest boy in the sew
enth grade.
When Paul was freshman, he
was considered the best soprano in
high school. Though timid little
tot, he responded to the requests
by singing THE One Rose and
many other hits of those days at
school gatherings Not only was he
a singer, but an actor as well. He
always managed to help make our
class plays success.
As I look at PauFs senior snap
shot have to laugh. Here he stands
five feet nine in height. He gradu-
ated from little boy with So
prano voice to a high and mighty
senior, with one of the strongest
bass voices in the mixed chorus
Those carefree days are gone, but
the memories will live on forever
And with these memories, Paul will
be recalled as one of the most active
members Of the Class of Al.

Montana Curtails Hog
Production i'm 1910

After three years of sharply in
creased hog production in Montana,
1910 witnessed a flattening out of
this trend when the fall crop of
100000 pigs fell 7 per cent below
that Of 1899. The years production
(spring and fall), however, of 1872,
900 head overtopped by 2 per cent
the number Of the preceding year
or 277,000 head, according to the
annual December pig crop report of
the Agricultural Marketing Service
Large supplies of cheap farm
feeds together with the need of re-
plenishing normal hog numbers
with the ending of the drough
foundations were the principal rea-
sons for the sharp comeback in hog
production in the state during the
past three years On the other hand,
this upturn has paralleled similar
restocking of hogs in the United
States, and an increasing annual
pig slaughter, which in the past two
years has been accompanied by de-
Ginning prices.
In Montana during this period
average prices to producers OF
slaughter hogs have dropped from
17.85 in 1888 to about $3.50 in 1910,
and the low price has lately been
IN important factor in hog produc-
ton plans. The number OF sows
farrowed in the fall of 1910 was
about per cent below the abnor-
mally high number OF the fall Of
1889. For the spring OF l94l much
sharper decrease is indicated ac-
cording to plans of growers, who as
81 date OF December ], 1910, re-
ported intentions to breed only 30

BUSINESS AND TAXES

Every cloud has a silver lining.
The need Of huge taxes by the gov
eminent insures good business. We
cannot pay taxes without profits,
and we cannot get profits without
good business. But you say. THE
government takes SO per cent of
the profits one year, but does not
share the loss another year" This
is true to a certain extent. Hence,
to get out of debt and avoid fu-
ture losses should be one aim of
every businessman in 1941, except
those to whom the government is
allowing heavy plant charge offs.
When computed on an invested
capital basis the Excess Profits Tax
applies only after 8 per cent is
earned. Have you ever figured
what per cent will give you when
compounded annually? For instance,
Sc, 900 at 8 per cent compound in
terest would amount to over $4,000
in 80 years. When you multiply the
amount by 10 or by 100, the result
is studendcus. Moreover, it makes
little difference to conservative
investor or businessman whether
this per cent goes into dividends,
or to plant improvement, or to debt
reduction. l once asked Thomas A..
Edison who was the worlds great
est inventor. He flashed his eyes
