Be Prepared
For Defeats

Uphill Fight Faces Us;
Production Soaring
By PAUL MALLON

WASHINGTON. May 25. -
W Vat unidentified high
Washington official who warned
some blows as well as victories
must be expected. was high
enough 10 know what he was
talking about. He had more in
mind than the law of averages.
Certain specific spots around
the world are being watched
closely from here as we pass
the turning point of our own
preparation into the phase of
aggressive action. To wit:
RUSSIAN FRONTAL ex-
pect the Russians TO hold through
the summer, but the spring fight
ing has not started too well for
our side.
Kerch was a red thorn in the
side of the Nazis. Its complete
loss could mean a clear flank
for Hitler in the Crimea and
Russian loss of Sea of Azov,
Moscow admits several thousand
casualties there; Germans claim
10000: real figure lies some
where between.
This annoyance could have
been offset by swift capture of
Kharkov, but just as the Rus
slams were ready to march in a
few days back. Won Beck. the
Nazi general, attacked and out
flanked them.
Disseminating, but hardly dis
astrous news, is possible from
Russia.

WHAT is the nature OF this
w mental dereliction


ual may withdraw into himself
and divorce the outside world
from his consciousness and lapse
into a state OF inarticulateness
or melancholia. or in the case
Of young people. the condition
known as dementia praecox.
Another natural thing is for
them to try TO forget the event.
and in doing so. they may by a
process of suggestion, forget
something else which is a part
of themselves.
This is the condition which is
known as hysteria.
The best definition I have
heard Of the psychological con-
dition Of patient with hysteria
is that it is a form of loss of
memory.
One of the major symptoms
of hysteria is the divided per-
sonality.
These Doctor Jekyll and Mr..
Hyde individuals are not at all
a product of Stevenson's imagi-
nation.
There are plenty OF real eX-
amples in which an individual
has a split personality so that
some time he is Mr.. A. and other
times he is Mr.. B.
1t does not necessarily follow
that. as in the cases of Doctor
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde. one per-
sonalitwy is all good and one
personality is all bad but that
while he is Mr. A he forgets all
about Mr.. B.
Sometimes. curiously enough,
when A finds that shis bank ac-
count is overdrawn. he says
perfectly nationally. "B did
that" as if he were talking
about an entirely different per-
son.
A Ii the symptoms of hysteria,
"A such as construction of the
visual fields. the paralysis and
the tantrumS can be explained
on the basis OF a form OF forget
fulneSs.
For instance. one symptom of
hysteria is numbnesS.
Now. of course, numbness or
anesthesia may occur TO the
skin due TO an injury to a nerve.
but anesthesia Of the hand, if
due to a nerve injury, involves
only three and one-half fingers
on one side or one and one-half
fingers on the other side and
the anesthesia extends up the
arm.
Hysterical anesthesia Of the
hand does not follow this pat
tern. but the anesthesia stops
in definite ring around the
wrist.
The hysterical person has for
gotten the mental concept of
the hand.
Differential diagnosis between
organic and functional disease
can be made in this way.
So if a person says TO you,
you have. f rgotten yourself"
he really is saying, You are
hysterical," and it may happen
in wartime.

Answer-Any fruit juices are

LARGEST WINTER
WHEAT CROP DUE
INDICATED FOR STATE BY RE
PORT OF AGRICULTURAL
ECONOMICS BUREAU

The largest winter wheat crop in
the history of the state is indicated
by the May l crop report Of the bu-
reau OF agricultural economics The re-
port gives an abandoned acreage per-
centage OF 3 percent which compares
favorably with the 40 percent aban-
donment for last year and the average
OF POI percent abandonment for the
l930-l939 period.
The acreage left for harvest is placed
at l,272,000 acres, which is somewhat
below last years record high of 1922. :
600 acres. However, with an anticipated
yield of % bushels per acre compared
to last years q bushels, total pro-
duction of 2e.256 900 bushels is an
ticipated or 1.494OOO bushels more
than that of last year The noticeab
shift in acreage from spring wheat
to winter wheat as a result of more
favorable winter wheat yields during
the past five years and the unusually
good moisture condition prevailing
during the spring of 1912 account
largely for this increased production
figure for winter wheat. While farm
ers cut down their planted acreage
somewhat from last year, the improved
moisture supplies would. if average

From the viewpoint of feed. climate

tious stock feed.

added incentive OF being asked by the
lederal government to increase his

Prospects Are Good
Things look good from the dairy
mans viewpoint. Prices he receives for
his products are good The average
value OF his stock has increased from

market is coming nearer and nearer
to his front door. representing an in

Until recently butter and cheese pro-

competition with products from states

is from 800 to 1000 miles nearer than

Montana dairy farmers, Boosting
some of the finest quality dairy cows
in the United States. look forward TO
a sl2.OoO.OOo income in 1912. as COM
pared to sioooO.ccO which they re-
ceived in 1871.
But the dairy farmers have other
things to look forward to besides
So 900 coo increase in their business in
one year. The dairy industry has the
brightest prospects of any industry in
Montana of continually forging ahead
year after year to higher and higher
production and income
Whereas a few years ago they were
milking an average of 900 COWS
daily. they are only milking 10000
COWS now. but they are getting more
and richer milk. And they are getting
more and richer milk on less feed.
The answer to the apparent riddle Is
that Montana dairymen have built up
the quality of their stock until they
produce more butterfat per COW than
the average dairy COW of the nation
Some herds in Montana are in fact
record producers.

averaged 1898 pounds of milk. The

While dairy COWS of Montana were
averaging 344 pounds of butterfat ir
