TAX INSTALLMENT
HAS TO BE PAID

Lewis Penwell, collector for
the internal revenue department
for Montana, stated this week
that the second installments on
the 1912 income tax are due
and payable on or before June
Is, and must be paid by that
date.
Penwell said, "the passage OF
the necessary tax legislation in
Washington has been delayed
so long and so many changes
suggested and debated that
there is some confusion in the
minds of a great many tax
payers, but the fact that the
income tax legislation already
passed or pending will make no
difference whatever in the in
stallment to be paid on June IS.
No matter what taxes the in
come taxpayers will be reliev-
ed from paying in the future,
it will not affect in the slight
est this payment to be made
June IS. We are urging all to
make payments in due time to
avoid penalty and interest
charges"
Penwell also stated that TO-
900 notices of the second pay
ment have been mailed OF Mon
tana income taxpayers.

GRASSH0PPERS
ARE REPORTED
Gustdfson Urges
Formers To Get
Poisoned Bolt

Grasshoppers have been re-
ported to be Matching in large
numbers in some areas of Big
Horn county, according to Geo.
w. GustafSon, county extension
agent.
The early Matching of hoppers
has been delayed by the wet
and cold weather which has
prevailed thus far this spring.
If dry and warm weather should
develop from now on the hop
per infestation threatens to be-
come serious, it was said.
The heavy infestation of hop
pers in this county was pre-
dicted by state entoniologists
last fall after a survey of egg
deposits was made.
It was reported that a large
supply of material which makes
up the poison bait is on hand
at the county fair grounds and
a mixing plant can be put into
operation Immediately. BY means
of the new mixer it will be
possible to put out poison bait
in much larger quantities in
a shorter time than was posi-
BILE by old methods. Farmers
are urged to be on the alert
for hopper infestation and be
prepared to spread this poison
when weather conditions are ia
vorable. The time to spread the
poison is Immediately after the
hopperS have Matched out. pro-
viding weather conditions are
right. Farmers should provide
themselves with a mechanical
power spreader as a quick and
effective means of checking the
hcppers, Mr.. Gustafson stated.
Poison bait will be available
at the fairgrounds in Hardin
and farmers are urged to use
it to save the much needed
crops this year.
Farmers must bring their own
sacks in which to haul the
poison bait.

guilty of a miSdemeanor under
