HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 16-(P)
In most towns, it wouldn't be
very remarkable If such names
as Mrs. Felix Jackson, Mrs. Vim
cente Minnelli, Mrs. William
Howard and Mrs. John Payne
were having babies. But in Ho!-
lywood It's news.
The expectant mothers are
otherwise known as Deanna
Durbin, Judy Garland, Dorothy
Lamour and Gloria De Haven
and the fact that.they are having
babies upsets a whole industry.
Hollywood runs in fads and this
season 1t seems to be raising
families. That throws a wrench
into production schedules and
film bosses tear their hair over
what actress will be available
for pictures.
Maria Montez and Brenda
Marshall are also on the ex-
pectant list and Veronica Lake
gave birth to a boy last month.
In the meantime, local gao-
bers are busily predicting MOTH

Emerson, none Of which has
been confirmed. One earnest Co.

Chart Portrays Annual Savings Under

WASHINGTON - From this

determine two things about the
effect of the new tax law upon

First, how much it will save
you. Savings have been comput-
ed for various weekly wages up
TO $4,000 a year, the top of the
tax table authorized by law.
Probably your exact income is
not listed, but by taking the
wage nearest to your own you
get a fair idea of your tax saw

Secondly, the table shows at

Seed Poundage

Valley county compared with a 1914
production of 100, 1000 pounds. accord
ing to the annual report of County
Agent James K. McGibney.
Registered seed production was
carried on by Al farmers on 1855
acres, with the acreage of registered
Ranger variety increased materially.
Seed production was stressed in
cooperation with the Northern Mon
tana Seed Growers association. The
association asked more production
through advertising and the med
ium of a seed school held here last
spring. The agent issued a number
of circulars and did other work to
encourage production.
In registered production, heaviest
was in Grimm, with Ranger acreage
increasing and several growers also
producing Ladak.

TAX PAYMENTS
REACH RECORD
COUNTY HIGH
100000 More Than Amount
Now Due Is Paid by Valley
Property Owners

First installment tax PAYMENTS
have reached an all-time high for
VaIley county, with property owners
renting 100000 more than the
amount due for the first payment. it
was reported this week by Mrs. Nora
Mumford, county treasurer.
Mrs. Mumford said l945 taxes
charged totaled S435, 041. OF this
amount S318,461 already has been
PAID, representing 70 percent of the
total charge, although only so per-
cent of it was due by Nov. 30.
Many landowners, particularly
farmers and ranchers, started TAX
ing care CT their obligations as
early as October.
OF the amount remaining uncol-
lected, SOS, 700, or more than half.
represents second half payments due
from utilities, which customarily
pay in first and second half INSTALL
ments. This leaves slightly more
than $4,000 due from other owners
of real property in the county.
The record payments reflect the
general prosperity of the county"
Mrs. Mumford commented. But they
also mean that property owners are
putting themselves in the best con-
dition possible for any future con-
tingency.
She pointed out that, in addition
to tax revenue, the county collected
S25,034 in land payments during
October and November. Receipts at
last weeks sale of county lands
brought an additional $4,000.
Mrs. Mumford checked records
and found that the previous highest
total payment, made in 1871, was
s245. 969.

Game Species

Planting of 25, 1000 lingering large
mouth black bass and 1,500 yearling
blue gills has been completed in the
Musselshell river near Fort Peck
lake by the federal fish and wildlife
service, it was reported this week by
Thomas c. Horn, manager of Fort
Peck Game range.
THE plant was made in the river
to reduce the losses of the planting
to larger fish that now are in the
lake." Mr. Horn explained.
Blue gills are commonly planted
in lakes containing other fish to
provide food for more desirable
species. Their spawning period is
long and the successive matches of
this species provide small fish of
varying size for the various sizes of
perch, bass, crappies, pike, trout and
other desirable food fishes found in
the lake"
Food has been abundant in Fort
Peck lake and both native and in
PRODUCED fish have made a rapid
growth. Mr.. Horn reports.

CONTROL CROP
BEST Way TO
FIGHT FLIES
Extension Experts Talk About
Wheat Pest at Two
Meetings

Resistant crops, such as barley
and flax, along with summerfalloW
operations, are recommended as
best methods of combating the saw
fly, pest that now infeSts many
fields throughout the county.
This was the statement at two
educational meetings conducted by
the extension service Thursday in
Opheim and Glasgow, attended by
almost 100 farmers. Besides County
Agent James K. McGibney, speak
erS were M. p. Hansmeier, extension
conServationiSt, and j. A. Callenbach,
entomologist, both of Bozeman.
Cleaning up" one section with
resistant crops and fallow, then NOV
ing to another. was suggested by
MI. Hansmeier, who pointed out
that the fly will not migrate far in
a single season. MI. Callenbach
traced the sawfly history. and life
cycle.
1t was stated that the new Can
adam ABB" experimental wheat is
fly-resistant, but it has not yet been
thoroughly tested and, in any event,
will not be generally available for
four or five years. Some of the
wheat was grown on a demonstra-
ton plot at the Carl Hansen farm
near Richland this year.
In his annual report, the county
agent estimated that 10000 acres
of wheatland were infested this
year, with the degree of infeStation
ranging from 5 to 95 percent.
Control methods included barley
planting on $4,000 acres. trap crops
on 5000 acres, spring tillage on TO-
600 and fall tillage on rs, 1000 acres.
AS a result, he estimated, the con-
troll measures brought a saving to
county farmers of 100000 bushels of
Infestation now is heaviest in
northern Valley county but flies
have spread to include the whole
county. In the north, some fields
reported down" so severely
wheat could not be cut.
