Mr.. Haycock said high school
teachers are welding a lasting in
huence for good" on youth who are
joining the war effort. I'VE do not
think OF them as fodder for ma
chine guns" he said. Rather,
they 60 out as young crusaders for
a new universal brotherhood for
which cause they are resolved to
give a full measure of their devo-
ton"
Mr.. Haycock's address was trans
lated into sign language by DR..

AqneuHunoI k,sou~ Jeruts

Because fuel savings are i'm
portant these days both from
the standpoint of the individ-
ual operator and the wartime
conservation program, o. W.
MonSon, extension rural engin-
eer at Montana State college
points out four steps that can
be taken by tractor operators
to cut down on fuel consumed.
First, he said, keep the trac-
tor in good mechanical condit-
ion by having it adjusted prop
erly and serviced at regular in
tervals. Give particular atten-
ton to the adjustment of the
carburator, magnetic and dis
tributor. Service the air clean
er regularly, lubricate proper
ly, and warm up the the eng
inc before putting it under a
load.
Second, keep the tractor load
ed as near as practical to its
normal load by using imple-
ments or combinations of i'm
PIGMENTS suited to the power
of the tractor.
Third, have plows, discs and
cultivatorS Sharpened, in good
operating condition and prop
trly adjusted.
Fourth, adjust the hitch of
implements to give a light
draft.
Monson adds that fuel stor-
age methods also lead to waste.
Avoid storing fuel too long a
period on the farm and have
the storage drums or tanks un-
der cover.
Although the Montana seed
law does not cover the label
ing of garden seeds, the fed
eral seed act requires that all
vegetable seed which is ship
ped into a state must meet Ger
tain requirements to give the
purchaser accurate Information,
w. o. Whitcomb, superintend-
ent of the Montana grain in
spection ~labratory at Montana
state college, points out.
The federal act specifies that
vegetable seed in packets or in
larger containers must be lab
eled to show the kind and var
iety Of vegetable and the ger
mination if such termination
is below the standard set in the
act.
These standards for the more
common vegetables are, in per-
cent of termination: beans

|. S. Sanders Heads Committee
OfNegro Division Of United
Community, War Fund Drive
S19,553 of Funds Will Go for
Negro Needs Locally

Prof. I. S. Sanders. principal of
Lanier high school has been given
the responsibility of heading the
Negro division of the local United
Community and War Fund Cam
paign and has accepted for our
group the proposed quota of 3d.
500.
In an interview with Prof SAM
ders he expressed the feeling that
Negro citizens of Jackson viii with
out a doubt double their quota, in
as much as there is each day
growing appreciation of civic re-
sponsibility on the part of Negro
citizens as well as an increased
ability and willingness to do their
part when called on.
Last year the division, through
the cooperation of the leaders and
workers, exceeded their goal
Prof. Sanders also stated that
the Negro citizenry of Jackson
would no doubt be interested in
knowing that more than large per
cent of the money that will be rails
ed locally and nationally will be
set aside for Negro work during
the coming year.
The total goal for all divisions in
Kinds county is two hundred six
teen thousand dollars. Of this
amount, one hundred twelve thous-
and dollars will go to the war ag-
encies. Half of the money that goes
to war agencies is allocated to the
USO. We all know the good job
that the USO, is doing in Jackson
and throughout the country for both
cqlored and white soldiers. A good
part of this war aid goes to the
Prisoner of War Aid, and a part
to the United Seaman's service. The
balance of the War Fund goes to
the aid of our Allies who are in
such desperate need.
The approximate amount that
has been set aside for Negro work
in community is as fol-
lows. e. .,er cent services for family
service association among needy
Negro families, $9,883; Boy Scout
work among Negro boys, $1,875; al
location for Negro agency, $7,795.
The above amount does not include
Girl Scouts, but at present there
are 8 girl scout Negro troops that
will without doubt be included
in this ALLEGATION.
Every colored citizen in jackson
will be asked to become a contri-
butor to the Third Community and
War Fund Campaign.
The steering committee will be
released at later date.
