FOODSTUFFS MAY
SOON BE RAISED
BY INSTITUTIONS
VEGETABLES AND MEATS WILL BE
PRODUCED AT BIG SAVING
TO STATE TAXPAYERS

Preliminary results of experiments
conducted during the l9il summer.
members of the state board of exam
liners reported, indicate the states
nine cuStodial institutions, housing
some 3,7oo persons. probably will be
able soon to produce practically all
necessary foodstuffs
Under the present system of buying
almost all food products, the grocery
bill has lowered around s25O,OOO each
year.
An "appreciable saving" will be pos
sible If further experiments prove as
successful as those of the past summer,
the board announced.
Principal reasons for seeking to
make the institutions self-sustaining
were listed by one member as:
l. Rapidly increasing food costs.
2. The plentiful supply of labor at
the institutions.
3. Increasing inability to procure
many articles because of the national
defense program.
4. Desire to cooperate with the de-
Tense program by aiding in expansion
of food production.
The same member said the chief
results of such program would be
improvement of quality of food in
crease the amount of food available
and providing of healthful outdoor
work for inmates.
Keystone of the entire program will
be cooperation among the institutions.
For example, cattle, sheep and hogs
sufficient to supply meat for all nine
will, be produced at the prison in Deer
Lodge. Similarly, corn and tomatoes
will be grown at the industrial school
at Miles City, canned and distributed
to other institutions.
| Already the beef cattle herd at the
state prison ranch has been increased.
Eventually the herd will provide 100
animals annually for butchering The
hog section also has been enlarged.
The prison garden will be expanded
to the point where it will produce all
vegetables that may be grown in the
Deer Lodge valley in quantity suffi-
Gent to feed the prisoners the year
round. These vegetables will be canned
and stored at the prison.
SURPRISES at one institution will be
exchanged to another for its over
supplies in order to make, in effect,
a huge cooperative of the nine Each
institution will produce what it can
in the way of vegetables, calling on
one of the others when necessary.
Encouraged, board members felt Ger
tain the answer had been found to
the ever-present high cost OF living"

MOVE IS PUSHED
PROGRAM AIMS TO PRESERVE
HISTORIC POINTS WHICH ARE
BEING DESTROYED

A "Save-the- OldWest" program
initiated last January by the Western
States Promotion Council, Inc, has
been successful, officials of Montanans
Inc, and Montana members of the
council, said recently. Writers, his
torians and various educational and
scientific organizations have shown a
great interest in the program. which
aims to preserve the historic points
of the west, many of which are rapidly
being destroyed. The Branch of His
toric Sites of the National Park Serv-
ice is interested in the movement and
has offered assistance to it.
To add momentum to the program
Montanans, Inc, officials added, the
Western States Promotion Council has
under preparation a series of hand
books and special reports for the use
of it's co-operators and others inter-
ested. Subjects include roadside mark
ers for scenic and historic sites, the
restoration and preservation of western
historic sites, and indigenous design
in western architecture.

DEFENSE BOOM
is TAKING AWAY
STATE EMPLOYEES
HIGHWAY AND OTHER DEPART.
MENTS LOSING MEN: MOVE
FOR HIGHER PAY

The national defense boom has Bit
ten into the ranks of Montana state
government employees.
Because Of higher salaries offered in
defense industries and private employ
ment, the state has lost scores of engi-
neers, accountants, clerks and stenog-
raphers during the past six months.
Hardest hit is the state highway de-
partment. which has lost more than
10 bridge and road engineers, drafts
men and other technical employees.
Engineer Fred Buck announces that
the water board has lost SIS engineers,
office employees and project engineers
since the first of the year.
Our staff has been reduced to the
point where we can't stand any more
losses he said Il don't know where
we will get requirements on the SAL
aries we can afford, if others leave"
Said Highway Engineer Howard W.
Holmes: We're losing men almost
every week because of the higher
salaries paid in defense industries.
Private employers can raise salaries
when they have to, to get men. The
state can't"
Gov. Sam c. Ford said that except
in the highway department, replace
ments had been found for virtually all
employees who had left, but added, IF
this keeps up we're going to have a
bad situation before long It's harder
and harder to get requirements"

the Blackfeet, still across the river
somewhat befuddled by the laudanum,
Smith showed his boat off and started
down the river, unaware of the watch
ing Indians. But as he went around
bend bullet struck the water
ahead of him. Looking up, he saw
five Indians on high bank under
which his boat must pass, an easy
target. Nothing for it but to surrender.
Indians Drank Liquor
The Indians dragged Smith from
the boat, removed the property still
tied to the willow gunwale. and sank
the craft. Then they built fire
They would, Smith saw, eat his
meat before killing him. Meanwhile,
they began getting drunk on his liquor.
Smiths sore tooth was jumping again,
and he pulled the laudanum bottle
from his clothing and took another
swig. The Indians were curious about
this new kind of liquor, and Smith
saw a way to save his hair. He re-
fused to let them have the bottle,
explaining that this was a powerful
and dangerous medicine, but he would
let each of them have one dose.
A big dose of laudapum would bring
sleep and bad dreams. And an Indian
would never go contrary to his dreams
When the Indians were asleep Smith
burned their bows and arrows and
helped himself to their guns and
powder and horses. He had never yet
killed human being, and he wouldn't
start now. These Indians would be
good Indians until their dreams wore
off.
AS he was leaving, two more In
dams appeared. Smith shot one of
them before he could fire, and the
other tried to ride away Smith shot
the horse from under him, and while
he was dazed Smiths knife finished
the job.
With the first human blood on his
hands, Smith proceeded to scalp his
dead enemies as well as the five
sleeping Indians
He wrapped the scalps in buffalo
robe and returned to the trading post.
The same clerk appeared and was
plainly scared when he saw who was
at the wicket. He carried some trim
kets Smith was sure were to pay the
Indians for his death.
Clerk Is Terrified
Smith showed the buffalo robe in
side.
You said you wanted all my pelts,"
he said. well, take a look and see
how you like EN-"
The clerk was terrified at what he
saw. He looked up to stare into the
muzzle of Smiths rifle, and ducked
back toward safety.
That bluff across there is an easy
rifle shot," Smith warned. Keep yer
winder shut. If I see it open or any
body about there1l be another scalp
to put with them," indicating the buff
falo robe.
The clerk slammed the wicket and
ran into the fort.
From across the river Smith fired
a shot into the post and rode south

In addition to the divisions of the
armored force, there are seven
armored companies and battalions
which are under command of Gen.
eral Headquarters. They are sta
toned at Camp Wallace and at
Forts Knox, Benning, Meade and
Lewis. Four of these are National
Guard units. At Fort Knox are an
armored force board, school and re-
placement center.
Each armored division Is supposed
to include 108 medium 26-ton tanks.
Only few, if any, are now in serv-
ice, but it is promised that deliveries
at a rate of one or two vehicles a
day will begin very soon" Output
of light tanks Is said to be between
100 and las month. Heavy tanks
of so tons are still in the sample
stage and are promised in adequate
numbers year from now. They will
not be attached to the armored di-
visions, but will form units of the
G. H. @. reserves.
With the completion of the eight
divisions as planned, the United
States would have its first armored
army. The central lesson of the
German defeat of France, according
to Maj. Gen. Adna r. Chaffee, COM
mander of the armored force, was
the use of mechanical troops in
self-contained formations which
operated Independently on a scale
of whole armies instead of divisions.
The force which smashed the

which would perhaps coincide with
popular thought upon the subject.
The report proceeded to state
however, that "the committee con-
fesses to the general contagion o1
enthusiasm for these potent contri-
bttions of the machine age to mod
ern warfare, and has written into
the bill provision permitting the
chief of staff to direct the place.
ment of orders during the ensuing
fiscal year for equipment OF such
additional armored force divisions
and other units as may be war
ranted, in his judgment. by the
state of world affairs"
Appearing before this subcommit-
tee, the chief of staff. Gen. George
C. Marshall, had protested as fol-
lows: Some one might say we
should have 20 armored divisions.
Maybe we should, but we cannot
organize them until we have the
equipment.
Whereas Germany entered the
war in 1899 with IL or IA armored
divisions, and by now probably has
doubled the number at least, the
United States, more than 20 months
later, possesses two divisions with
approximately full compliments of
personnel, but only so per cent Of
their battle equipment Of tanks and
guns, and two which remain def
eient both in officers and men and
in armament. Four others exist as
yet solely on paper. They have nei-
ther personnel, equipment nor can
tonments.
The pioneer divisions, the 1st
and I'd, were organized last, year
at Fort Knox and Fort Ben
ming. They were purposely over
manned, so as to provide a trained
framework for the Sd and 4th
Divisions, assigned for the present to
Camp Beauregard and Pine Camp.
From the older divisions were de-
tached about 300 officers and 5000
men, who were divided equally be-
tween the new ones. Provision for
added personnel required by the
Sd and 4th Divisions, estimated
at 8,700 men each, is contained in
the estimates of the current bill.
1t is hoped that some time this sum-
mer they may reach the training
ratio" of so per cent of armament.
According to schedule, the first
two divisions should be completely
equipped by the end Of July, the
next two by November, the 5th and
9Th by next February. and the 7th
and 9th by June, 1912. But two large
contingencies intervene-namely, if
there are no more strikes in defense
industries, and If no further ship
ments of tanks and guns are di-
verted to Great Britain.
