TALK ON INITIATION

Seven methods which the Ameri-

The April II address will be de-

cording to an announcement bv
Commander A. T. Duvall of Bill
lings post 1884.
"The fight against initiation is
being supported by our organiza-
! ton because we veterans of the
first World war remembered the
h~ardships which were inflicted upon
cur people by the evils of initiation
back in 1917-18," declared Com
mander Duvall.

felt by all citizens. That is why
all of us owe it to ourselves to
help fight inflationary trends. Safe

the United States are vital to the
preservation of Americanism. Wild
initiation will cause widespread pow
erty and distress. Such conditions
pave the way for unrest and con-
fusion. The American people will
be in a mood to listen to the rab-
BILE rousers. Demagogues will arise
to seize advantage of the opportun-
ity to attack the fundamental prin-
ciples of Americanism.
"We also owe it to our loved
ones in the armed forces to keep
the prices of food, clothing, shelter
and other necessities at reasonable
levels. If we fail to accomplish
this objective, we will only betray
those who are risking their lives
on the battle fronts to preserve our
security on the home front"

Soys Scrub Hogs
Should Be CuIIed
To Increase Output

BOZEMAN-A national drive to
increase next years u S. pork out
put and reduce feed waste oy Gull
ing out the scrubs" breeding stock
on tens of thousands of the nation S
farms, was launched last week by
the Wartime Swine Industry coun-
Gil.
Through information distributed
to county agents, farm associations
extension departments and swine
producers groups, the drive will
center around four major points in
the better selection of breeding
stock for next seasons pig crop.
The council urges that all infer
ior or scrub stock be eliminated in
choosing animals for next year
farrowings. Scrub parents produce
scrub pigs which waste feed and
lose money
The producing herd should also be
culled rigidly to eliminate both shy
producing sows and those which
produce hard-feeding. slow gaining
pigs. The council is also urging
farmers to adopt a system of ear
marking all lltterS to determine the
most efficient brood sows for re-
tanning in the herd, and to locate
replacement gifts for breeding, from
the largest filters of fastest grow
ing pigs.
Success in raising pigs goes back
to the inherited value of the bears
and sows used. Every hog feeder
should be sure. for the coming sea-
son, that he has producing stock
that turns feed into pork fastest ard
at cheapest cost, says the council.
In commenting on Montana's part
in the drive, DR.. Arne Norlskog Of
the animal industry department at
Montana State College, says. that
most of the scrub swine has been
culled out in this state, but there
is still much that can be done In
increasing the efficiency OF the
swine of Montana.

Says Waste
Paper Lack
Most Critical

A circular sent out by the Moi
tana State Salvaging Committee
says that waste paper collection is
in critical condition. The circu-
lar says:
Paper reports for the month OF
June are even more discouraglng
than the reports for the month OF
May. 1t is most difficult to under
stand, because through the press.
through memoranda from this Of
flee, and through contacts by fhe
fieldmen, the increasing need fer
waste paper has continually been
brought. to the attention Of every
county in the state.
The April collection of waste pa
per totaled 3 million pounds; the
MAY collection totaled 2 million
pounds, and the June collection, as
indicated in this report, shows the
insignificant figure of a little over
million pounds, or 276 pounds
per capita.
Many counties, although possibly
making shipments have shown no
inclination to fill out the self-ad-
dressed, postage-paid card directed
to chairmen each month. It is true
that in some counties efficient paper
collections call for a collection only
once every 6 weeks. However, when
there is such long period between
ering the need for saving paper
should be kept up. In the report for
this month, counties showing 90
reported that no shipments were
made, and counties showing 4 blank
are those from which no reports at
all were received by this office.
AS the record indicates, many
counties are doing an outstanding
job, and, nationally, Montana has
not fallen below third place in the
Nation on shipment OF waste paper
each month. However, 4he poor
showing in June will probably drop
us to nearer the last among the 9TH
er states
Waste paper is essential in every
battle, and never let it be SAID that
we have failed our men on the fight
ing front. The cooperation Of the
people of your county is duty to
those men. Need we say more?
Gov Sam c. Ford joins in urging
the necessity for waste paper sal
wage and says:
Again have been asked by the
War Production Board, through
Donald M. Nelson, chairman, and
by the State Salvage Committee.
VIM E. Rae, chairman, and James
J. Flaherty chairman of the Waste
Paper Consuming Industries, to call
to the attention Of our Montanans
the fact that the shortage of paper
has become most critical and that
the saving Of waste paper and other
paper materials and the conserving
of all paper products is today an alb
Solute necessity
"Montanas splendid record, for
which the salvage committees and
the patriotic people in Montana are
responsible. has placed Montana as
one of the three leading states Of
the Nation in shipping waste pape-
into production channels
There should be no let-up in
this vital program, and | urgently
