At 100000
By the Assoeiofed Press

DETROIT, Oct. 28.-The estate of
the late Henry Ford would have a
total valuation of approximately
$70,000,000 If figures used for tax
payment purposes finally are ap-
proved.
This was indicated today in an
accounting prepared for Probate
Court by Mr.. Ford's widow, Clara
j. Ford, as executrix.
The accounting showed total as

stockholdings had been paid, but
was yet to be approved in court.
In settling the estate of the late
Edsel B. Ford, Mr.. Fords only son,
VINO died several years before his

Doctor Who Reported
Finding Cancer Virus
To Make New Report
BY the Associated Press

MIAMI, Fla, Oct. 2S.-Dr. John
E. Gregory, San Marino (Calif.)
researcher who says he believes
cancer Is due to virus, has been
invited by the American Cancer So
clety to give first-hand account
OF his research for appraisal.
This was related today by DR.. B.
A. Schneider, Cancer Society rep
resentative at the meeting of the
Southern Medical Association, where
DR.. Gregory reported his views.
DR.. Gregory also says that in
the test-tube, the virus" of GER
tain cancerous and cancer like con-
ditions can be destroyed" by a
bacterial organism called "bacterium
subtilis"-a germ that occurs in
hay.
DIR. Schneider said DR.. Gregory
had accepted the invitation TO con-
fer with the Cancer Society's head
quarters staff Friday in New York.
Photographs Shown.
In an exhibit at the Southern
Medical Associations annual meet
ing-for which he won first honor
able mention" among scientific ex-
hibits-Dr. Gregory offered what
he described as election microscope
photographs of cancer "virus"-said
to have been discerned in various
types of malignancy.
Success with a new weapon
against Rocky Mountain spotted
fever-the golden" drug aureomy-
cin-also was described today.
A team of Winston Salem IN. c.
researchers said the mold-derived
drug had checked fever in about
three days in three cases treated
with it. Untreated cases of this
disease have fever for about Is days
unless death occurs.
Earlier this week, a group OF
Baltimore and Washington, re-
searchers reported that another
mold derived drug - chloromy-
cetin-had checked fever in
Is cases in an adverage of
% days.

Later the Archbishop said the
"connotation of my statement tc

soften the water you need to use by
any of the usual methods.
1t is possible to stop the hardness
by coating the walls with hot paraf-
fin or with thin asphalt paint, but
this is likely to cause some slight
taste in the water and to cause
trouble when you try to replaster the
walls.
If the water is still hard after two
or three filings, it indicates that

HANDY WIRE E E

A. B. G. writes: 1--WE have found
that a leaky 55-gallon oil drum
makes a handy reel for rolling up
electric fence wire, whether the wire
is barbed or smooth. The fence
maker can roll his wire tight on it
by pulling back on the drum. In I'M
winding, he simply kicks it ahead
of him as he staples.
The large diameter of the drum
permits rapid winding and unwind
ing and reduces the need of straight
ening the wire to a minimum. The
drum with its wire can be put on
or off a wagon by one man.

SAWDUST INSULATION

T. S., writes: "How does sawdust
rank in value as an insulation for
farm homes as compared with other
types costing much more?"
Dry, weathered sawdust has a high
insulating value as compared with
most commercial types of insulation,
but the great difficulty is in keeping
it dry. All homes have considerable
moisture or steam in the air, which
tends strongly to work through to
the outside, especially in cold
weather.
Hence, before putting it in, a mois-
ture barrier such as heavy water
proof paper or light roll roofing
should be placed between the studs
against the inside sheathing and
fastened by lacking strips over it to
the studding.
Then similar wa~terproofing should
be tackled on the outside of the studs
or outside the s%heathing before put
ting on the siding Or other outside
finish. When the dry sawdust is
poured in where an upper siding
board has been removed, it should
be tamped down lightly with a short
length of hose to be sure no pockets
are left and that it will not settle too
much.
1t is even more important to in
sulate the attic over the upstairs
ceilings, as much more heat escapes
there than through the walls. First
lay tough insulating paper between
the joists and then spread about four
inches of dry sawdust, and be sure
the attic is well ventilated but that
no snow or rain can blow or leak in.
NEW CISTERN WATER HARD
w. S., writes: "We built a new
cement cistern and the water is very
hard. The longer it stands in the
cistern the harder the water gets.
Should the cistern be sized, or what
can I do to have soft water?"
1t very often happens the water
in a new cistern becomes quite hard
for the first filling or two, due to
the absorption of lime from the un-
finished hardening or setting of the
cement in the concrete. However
this should not bother more thar
for n or two filings. If the rain.
fall permits, it helps to let it fill ur
well and stand a few days, ther
pump it out and let it refill once o,

TURNS AWAY

J. L. K. writes: "a very common
nuisance around barns is to have
sparrows and ~starlings roost on the
hay track and spoil a lot of your
best hay with their droppings. I
have found that if you smear the
hay track with creosote, the birds
will never come near it, and your
hay will be kept clean"
Note by L. W. d. have never
tried this, but it sounds reasonable.
At least it will do no harm and will
act as a lubricant. Creosote also
might be smeared literally on other
things where these birds tend to
rooSt.
Farm machinery prospects-Ac-
cording to the bureau of agricultural
economics, is looking up. More new
farm machinery will be on the mar
ket for farmers in 1913 than in 1947.
Production of farm machinery in
1913 will probably be enough above
1947 to allow for a slight rise in
total exports and still leave more
new machines for the home market
than in 1947 or any other year. How
ever, export demands for some types
of tractors and machines may be
relatively high in relation to our pro-
duction of these machines"

Five ice cutting has been going on
each winter since 1925 without a

Now on the job preparing FOL
the harvest are "a men with a to-

Dam Specs to Include New Lower Road

A lower water level road from
highway No 2 to Hungry Horse
damsite will be included in speci-
fications for building the S1OO,0OO,-
900 project.
This will involve reconstruction
and relocating the present steep
grade one-way road that more or
less follows the Flathead's South
Fork, and will be used for haul
inc materials and transporting
workmen. Later it will provide &C
cess to the powerhouse
It is believed that the new road
will join highway No 2 at Hungry
Horse village and at another spot
closer to the South Fork river.
Call for bids on the 525-foot high
concrete dam, the worlds fourth
largest. will be issued sometime N
February.
To be completed this year is the
3.9-mile long three-lane access road
from highway No 2 to the top OF
the damsite. This contract held by
C and F construction company Will
be finished by oiling in the spring,
and then an extension of about GU
feet will be built, now that the ex-
act location of the dam is known
Other road building in connect
ion with Hungry Horse includes
the IA mile Spotted Bear forest
service road relocation out of the
reservoir area. This is a S632,44S
contract held by the F K HeWett
company, Spokane, and actual road
construction will get underway in
the spring. Additional sections OF
the Spotted Bear road will be ad-
vertised for rebuilding.
December employment at the
project totaled $40 as compared
with November's average of 31o,
and September's peak of 4S9. Pre-
sent employment is about $50.

Two Federal School
Bills Hold Interest

Of interest to upper Flathead
county residents are two school
bills before congress.
Congressman D'Ewart has asked
for federal payment directly to the
support of Fort Peck schools. Much
of the land in this district is tax
free. A result is that about S8O,oOo
of the 100000 federal emergency
grant to Montana schools each
year goes to Fort Peck.
Therefore Congressman DEW
arts bill would free the 100000
for other school emergencies In
Montana
Introduced on December 10 by
Congressman D'Ewart was bill
to provide school or for facilities
in Yellowstone national park Al
present Yellowstone employees sup
port a private school
With the population increase as
a result of Hungry Horse dam
construction, District 6 by itself
does not have tax raising facilities
to provide adequate school build
ings Or a sufficient number of tea
cheers.
There is also the problem of fed
eral employees living on public landS
that do not provide direct rev.
