4O0-foot MGM picture portraying the

The library now contains films on

thing from potato growing to atomic

are:

Great Northern Railway, on best meth

recent agricultural film is Along the

scientific milk production. This pic

Agriculture.
OF particular interest on the inter
national scene is a March of Time"
news review on Palestine, furnished
the library by Helena Jewish group.
Two pictures, 'One World or None,
highlighting likely sociological, tech

ment of atomic energy, and Atomic

OF somewhat different vein are a

MONTANA FARMERS TO
LOSE CROP PREMIUMS

The economy drive in congress, as
evidenced by the recommendations of
the subcommittee on appropriations,
has proposed a so per cent slash in
conservation funds for Triple A for
1947 and plans no funds at all for 194S.
The loss of incentive payments to
farmers for conservation practices
will, no doubt, result in an increase
in our soil losses through erosion The
loss at present is approximately one
half million acres annually.
Crop Insurance Scheduled To Go
The same penny-pinching sub-com-
mittee has recommended that the
crop insurance program be curtailed
and limited to an experimental basis.
Crop Insurance Works In Montana
Federal crop insurance is covering
about 675,o acres of Montana
wheat land this year as compared
with about 482.0 last year. Acre
age estimates on flax coverage
aren't available but the increase in
applications from AZ last year to 744
tniS year iHuiCGLGS great expansion.
Coverage of wheat this year extends
to about 10,400 farms in 29 counties
in 1916. New counties in the insur-
ance program are Saltwater, JEFF
ferson. RichIand, and the two which
are trying out with an area cover
age type of insurance, Roosevelt
and Prairie.
The loss of the insurance program
in Montana will be particularly disap-
pointing to those many farmers who
have carried continuous insurance for
five consecutive crop years without
losses since they are now eligible for
a reduction of 10 per cent in premium
rates. Furthermore, many Montana
farmers have attained the goal where
paid-in premiums equal the current
years insured coverage which entities
them to so per cent reduction in prem
ium.
Montana farmers who have attain
ed or who are about to attain this OBJ
jective will not be pleased to find
their earned security jerked away from
them.
