searched each face again as if seek
ing challenge to the words he had
spoken. Only stunned silence met
him. His eyes lifted and friendly
smile wreathed his face as the door
OF the conference room opened A
tall, erect man stood at the door,
gravely hesitant.
Come right on in, Tannard,
Baucom invited. He stepped for
ward to extend a congratulatory
hand and his smile widened as he
added, without formality: II hope
your heart is in good shape to stand
a hard shock, Senator. But the gen.
tlemen present wish you to serve as
President of the United States. Your
confirmation will be voted without
serious opposition"
Tannard's alert eyes searched the
room. He was a man of fifty, physi-
cally fit, appearing much younger
than his age. His face was angular,
strong-featured. Tannard looked the
born leader OF men, man Of action
governed by an active, orderly
mind.
In his steel-blue eyes there showed
no gleam Of personal triumph at
Baucom's announcement. His emo
tional response was a tightening Of
the muscles Of his jaw, a drawing
erect of his wide shoulders.
Tannard gave his answer in a
measured voice.

the BdttleShip North Carolina
During Tests Last Week.
Racing to train enlisted personnel
to man the expanding Navy, Uncle
Sam is experimenting with use of
new men in important posts on a
ship under careful supervision and
constant schooling. A number of
the enlisted men on the new North
Carolina have had less than a years
service each in the Navy.
Yet these men, without single
firing drill. loaded and fired the
North Cardinals guns, one by one,
and climaXed two days firing with
what their officers believe to be
the greatest broadside ever delivered
from a single ship. There were no
casualties, and no injuries. The
same officers who directed the fire
can remember when accidents were
frequent. One ship in recent years
was laid up six months after her
first fire.
twenty-five per cent of the
North Cardinals officers are from
the reserves, but they are mainly
ensigns, with highly trained
Naval Academy line officers in
the top spotsD
Giving the new men more impor-
tant jobs to perform is only one
way in which the Navy is giving its
enlisted men new breaks. There
are quarters with fitting steel cots
instead of hammocks, there are air.
conditioned battle stations where
former temperatures were almost in
human, and there is better food and
medical care.
Water Supply Ample.
Illustrating one phase Of TIE
newer accommodations, the eXecu-
tive officer, Comdr. A G.. Shepard, |
explained on the recent cruise about |
the fresh water supply. 1t is ample, |
he said, but not to be used too |
laVishly, for it is all made from
sea water by the ships own equip |
ment. The situation differs some
what from old days, he said, when
We were given a bucket of water in .
the morning to use for brushing our .
teeth and bathing, and were told .
to save the water when we had .
finished to use in scrubbing paint |
work"
In addition to the firing and other
tests made during the recent run
of the North Carolina, engineers
were experimenting with breathing
and fatigue tests in strategic COM
partments deep in the interior. A +
group of men had volunteered to
let themselves be used as subjects
for the experiments, and reports

were gathered by telephones and
recorded by various instruments.
One part of the cruise was to find
cold currents" at sea and later tests
will be made in warmer waters.
An enlisted man is fitted out with
S1l285 worth of clothing when he
joins the Navy, and wher they are
gone he buys his own at reduced
rates from the ships supplies. He
makes $21 per month when he
starts, plus food, laundry, and med
ical and dental care. 1t Is possible
for him to work up to becoming a
chief petty officer at S157 per month.
Example of Lunch.
In the meantime, if he is on the
North Carolina, for instance, he eats
plentiful food from electrical and
steam kitchens-eats it on metal
trays that are sterilized after each
meal. The Navy doesn't say for
publication how many enlisted men
there are on such an important
ship, but here was a recent lunch:
$50 chickens, 70 pounds -four for
gravy, 300 pounds stale bread for
dressing, 1,200 pounds sweet pota-
toes, IS pounds oranges, gallons
syrup, 800 pounds canned asparagus,
25 gallons pickles, 20 gallons ripe
olives, 400 pounds lettuce, 300 pounds
tomatoes, 800 gallons coffee, (bread

based on lunch's share of a daily
baking of $50 one pound loaves and
some 1000 rolls.
Menus like this are served to the
men at an average cost of slightly
.4l39, to be exact. Any housewife
knows it would be much higher
than tha< in her kitchen, for one
family.

Chickens are likely to develop colds
in spite of all the modern precautions
in housing, ventilation and sanitation
that are available. Psychologists find
that certain organisms usually are
found in cases of colds. These organ
isms are the biggest danger to pullets
when the birds are first transferred
from the range into houses where cold
germs may be held over from a previ-
Gus year and where more crowded con-
ditions are conducive to the propaga-
ton and spread of the cold organisms
The pullets, not having built up re-
SiStance to these organisms, conse-
quently fall easy victims to a siege of
colds. Egg production. usually well
under way at this time, takes slump.
and at present prices that means a
decided loss in money.
However, a quite successful preven-
ton method may be used against these
cold organisms. Immunity can be slim
ulated by vaccination with bacterins
made from cultures obtained from in
fected chickens. The bureau of animal
industry of the United States depart
ment of agriculture issues licenses to
manufacture such bacterins under
standardized names and formulas. The
bacterin made from those organisms
commonly found in colds is known as
Mixed Bacterin tAvian Chicken For
mula.
Flocks in which trouble from colds
has been experienced may be vaccinat-
ed prior to the time egg production
starts, and turkeys prior to fattening
for market. Right now is a good time
TO vaccinate, l &C to 2 &C being in
jected with syringe which may be
bought with the bacterin. The dosage
is doubled for turkeys
Vaccination should not be expected

heating, poor ventilation, dampness.
drafts and similar factors. These
should be controlled by good manage
ment and properly ventilated houses
However, vaccinated birds can be ex-
pected to have higher degree of re-
slstance to the organisms contained
in the bacterin

Blu Closed Season

Correcting what he termed "er-
roneous reports" recently. DR.. J. S
Mcfarland, state fish and game ward
en-, said there would be no open season
on doe deer other than one declared
in small section of Madison county
Recently there have been rumors
there would be an open season on doe
in Ravalli and other counties" he
said. This, however. is entirely
false"
He pointed out the commission has
power to prohibit the taking Of doe
deer whenever there is the possibility
of depletion of herds.
The only area open in the state to
doe hunting will be Oct. Is through
Oct. 10, in the following portion OF
Madison county:
That portion draining into the
Madison river lying south of the Vir-
ginia City-EnnE road and west OF
the Madison river, and that portion
lying east and north of the Madison

SARAH P. HOWARD
SAW PLUMkIER
PAY FOR CRIMES

Mrs. Sarah p Howard. 90. who, as
young girl danced with Henry
Plummer. the notorious Montana road
agent, and short time later wit
messed his hanging died recently at
Dillon.
A resident OF Beaverhead county 70
years, Mrs. Howard arrived in Ban
mack, Montana's roaring capital OF
the gold rush, on Sept. l8. 1862. in
the first covered wagon to negotiate
the long journey from the east by
way of Colorado. Mrs. Howard always
said she walked most of the distance
to Montana from Illinois. her native
state, where she was born Nov. %. l848.
AS one of the few white women in
Bannack during its early days. Mrs.
Howard was nurse at IA, and at
tended many of those who fell before
the blazing six-guns that were Mon
tana's way of settling disputes.
At that time, Plummer was sheriff
of the county and using his office
as blind behind which his gang of
road agents terrorized the mining
camps throughout this section of
Montana and robbed wagon trains and
dispatch riders plying between here
and Salt Lake City.
II was at one of the dances held
in Bannack that Mrs. Howard, still
in her teens, danced with Plummer
A short time later, he and several of
his gang were hanged by the Vigi-
lantes, who finally took the law into
their own hands.
Despite her advanced years, Mrs.
Howard was active in her own and
county affairs up to a few days before
her death. On Aug. %, she was fea-
tured speaker and guest of honor at
the annual convention of the Mon
tana Sheriffs and Peace Officers as
ISOLATION, held in Dillon and at Ban
mack
She related her first hand account
of the execution of the Plummer gang,
which was re-enacted for the con-
vention by Sheriff Paul Temple and
his associates as an entertainment
feature. Mrs Howard was believed to
be the last surviving eyewitness of
the actual execution.

Meeting instantaneous, strong, and

headquarters from Washington to a
central point on the range is expected
to foster closer and more intimate
relationships between the service and

upon whose recommendation for trans
