Canton and Youngstown win Swim Meet
West Girl wins Beauty Crown

Las Sunday at Idora Park in
Youngstown a determined Can
ton Swim Team once more re-
tained their title of Aquatic
Champs for the year of l948.
They were challenged quite few
times during the meet by strong
team from Youngstown and it
wasn't till the final event, the
200 yard relay, that Canton was
sure of victory. Youngstown
scored three first. one second and
one third to Canton's two firsts,
three seconds and three thirds.
In the girls events it was race
all the way through between 70.
and ClevelandWest with Youngs-
town finally emerging victorious
in the last event by winning first
place in diving. The few girls
that participated in the meet are
to be congratulated on their
sportsmanship and good show
ing and let us hope that next year
will see a larger number OF girls
entered in the meet.
There was good showing in
the number Of entry received this
year but it could have been much
better. There were five boys
teams and four girls teams. The
final results of the swim meet

1t Is the Other Fellow

out as much as 81, 500, 000, 900 under the
loan program in support of grain prices.
This may be true, but the huge figure
should not carelessly be accepted as a cost,
since the loans will be paid back. Only adj
charges and possible defaults,
if any, will be cost. The entire support pro-
gram last year, including the much pub
licized potato campaign did cost the gov
eminent SITS, 000, 900.
Finally, the farmer and rancher are not
forgetting that support prices are not fixed
prices but are geared to parity, which is
the ratio of the prices of things the farmer
has to sell to those of things he has to buy.
Support prices stay up only if other
prices do.
AS the present law stands, support prices
on basic commodities are to be maintained
at 80 percent of parity until 1850. There is
some agitation now to lower the parity
rates before then, but whether the 80 per-
cent parity level prevails or not, next years
loan or support levels are likely to be low
er than this year. The USDA has estimated
that lower prices for feed grains and feed
stuffs may reduce the parity index enough
to push the wheat loan level down 5 to 10
cents a bushel next year. Thus, the farmer
himself has brought about the first reduc-
ton of supports.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01
It's Time to Gull That Herd

quent drop in demand for meat is still a
matter of conjecture.
One positive factor does now exist, how
ever, that would seem bound to affect the
picture. The 1913 record crops nave brought
us suddenly close again toea surplus condi-
ton. Feed prices have tumbled, and since
meat is simply converted feed, the differ
ence should show in a practicable length of
time. Again the experts say now that it
should be by early 1850. 1t will be longer
than that before the conversion of feed into
more beef can come about, but the CONVEX
sion into increased supplies of pork and
poultry can be rapid and soon affect the to-
tai meat situation.
There are not too many cattle. Montana
herds have leveled off at about 10 percent
under the all-time peak of about 1000, 900
head in 1945. In view of the sharp decline
in sheep numbers, the present cattle popu-
lation is probably well within the reason
able carrying capacity of our ranges. But
there is probably also need for readjust-
ment of numbers in some individual opera
ions and there is always the possibility of
improvement of quality in any operation.
This is it. The time for trimming and
culling for more efficient operation is here
That time is always here.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01

w THO'S TO blame for the high cost of
w living? No.. Wait. We're not going
into that again. The subject will be aired
thoroughly and inconclusively from now on
through election time and after that until
it comes time to argue who caused the next
depression. Besides, the answer is obvious.
1t is the other fellow.
But when the conversation does inev-
tab1y come around to the subject, and par
t~icularly when it brings in farm price sup
ports for consideration as the possible Gull
prit, here are a few points that can add to
the discussion though they won't settle it.
First of all, the principle of supports is
not really an issue in the present cam
paign. Both parties are committed at least
to the principle. Thus the farm and ranch
operator who is convinced hat support of
agricultural prices is fundamental to the
economic health of the nation and his neigh
Dor across the road who is equally con-
vinced that supports are only a phase of
bureaucratic control should confine their
arguing for the time to questions of how
much support and how supplemented?
Further, reports that are being banded
about as to the possible costs of maintaining
supports this year or any year should be
considered with caution. One estimate is
that the government may be called upon to
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01

weeds. 1t might be labeled the last year
B. G. before chemicals), for only a little ex-
perimental spraying and busting was done.
And that year farmers were harvesting so
much weed seed with their grain tina they
found it profitable to screen the grain and
market the weed seed for vegetable oil pro-
duction. This year entire crops of thou
sands of bushels have been marketed with
out a single truck load being docked.
The contribution of weed chemicals in adj
ded yield, ease of harvesting and increased
value through elimination of dockage can
scarcely be overestimated.
And the same assessment Of value can be
placed upon new insecticides. Tests nave
shown that alfalfa fields treated with DOT
and other chemicals have not only out
yielded untreated fields but have produced
a better quality of hay. The saving of seed
yields from the attacks of insects has been
tremendous.
Recent years have shown that plenty of
good old water plus the chemicals can work
wonders. What the chemicals can contrib
ute when there is less moisture remains
to be seen.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01

THIS is it. Now is the time to trim that
L cattle herd if it is just a little bigger
than its average range and feed supply
warrants or to Gull the herd and replace
with better quality units if inferior animals
have been carried along during these times
when any critter is worth money and feed
has been comparatively plentiful.
So say the experts. They have said it be-
fore. In fact they nave said it pretty regu-
1arly through each of the past several years
of good livestock prices and good grass and
hay production in Montana and Wyoming.
Each year the advice has been given on the
sound premise that any time the price is
high is a good time to sell. Other arguments
were that, since the present year was a
good one for range and feed, there was at
least a $3.50 chance that the coming one
would not be and, further, that a recession
could always be suspected of being just
around the corner.
Today the advice is based on the same
premises, and they may or may not be any
more valid now than before. Prices are still
good, SO it is still a good time to sell. Wheth-
er next year will be dry or whether it will
bring a lower national income with conse-
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01

ord yields can be credited directly to the
use of weed chemicals will probably never
be known, but the share is unquestionably
large. This was a good year for weeds, and
the stories are numerous this year, as last
of weed chemical applications making the
difference between what might have been
no crop at all and a good crop.
Two years ago was also a good year for
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-10-01
Chemicals Contribute to Crop

THERE is no chemical that means as much
to Montana crops as good old H2O,
water. How Montana land can respond to
its treatment is happily demonstrated by
this years record crops.
But the showers of weed and insect con-
troll chemicals that were applied to the
fields this year also contributed enormously
to the good harvest. What portion of the rec

Straws in the Wind

Costs of producing crops in 1947 and 1913
were greater than the gross farm income
in any year between World war / and
World war 2, the bureau of agricultural
economics reports. 1t warns that if prices
fall, expenses will still tend to remain at
relatively high levels, making careful man
agenent essential and restriction of cash
OUTLAWS advisable.

Poultry producers of the nation are urge

Poultry producers of the nation are urged
by the u. S. department of agriculture to de-
velop a production force of 425 ,000, 900 lens
and pullets by January. Egg consumption
has averaged $50 per capita during 1947, the
department reports, and warns that a drop
of only 1,000,0 900 hens will mean one egg a
day less for everyon next year.
Last April the USDA asked for a 10 per-
cent increase in the fall pig crop, but with
corn supplies short and the hog-corn price
ratio far below average, the June pig report
showed nc increase. Now the recommended
ton is for the largest spring pig crop in
history, a II percent increase. With corn
plentiful, the goal this time may be reached.
Farm real estate values in the first half
of the year averaged 2 percent above the
1920 peak, z percent above a year earlier
and more than double the 1859 average.
Montana was among states in which an in
crease of more than 5 percent for the first
six months of the year was noted.

EAST, WEST:
In Italy

By the time officials finished
counting the first vote returns from
Italy's national election there was
no longer any element Of surprise
in the fact that the anti Communist
coalition parties we're winning two
to-one.
Unusual thing was that tie anti
Red Christian Democrats, Repub-
icans and Social Unity party had
scored such a top-heavy victory.
They led everywhere, even in the
so-called RED North where Com
munists had amassed considerable
strength in the Industrial cities. It
appeared that the anti-G Communists
had secured absolute majority in
both the Italian senate and chamber
of deputies.
Communist front Spokesman con-
coded that the election results must
be considered a victory for Pre-
mier Alcide De Gasperi's coalition.
This italian election had been the
plum for which both the u. S. and
Soviet Russia had been competing
frantically for six months. It was
a real contest Each nation had sent
myriads Of entries: 81 think Italy
should be anti-c Communist Cor Com
munist) because" Each entry was
accompanied. not by boxtops, but by
boxcars of food and machinery as
well as other Establishments.
Victory Of the anti Communists in
the election was, in a manner Of
speaking, a clear-cut victory Of
benevolent capitalism over militant
communism. AS such it could exert
tremendous influence on the course
Of European history.
Probably the principal factors de-
Gliding the outcome Of the election
were passage Of the European recov-
cry program and the U. S. proposal
to return Trieste to Italy.
Further, the election appeared to
make an important point concern
ing the workings of Communist ag-
erosion: Ability of the Communists
to take over a country is greatly
reduced in cases where the Red
army cannot be brought into posi-
ton to exert pressure on the in
tended victim.
The Red army was not a factor
in the Italian elections. It was a
factor, either through its immediate
presence or its threatening prox-
unity, in the coups Of Czechoslo-
vakia, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria
and eastern Germany.
If that reasoning is sound, a dis
turbing conclusion is evident: Should
Russia realize that Soviet domina-
ton of Europe cannot be accom-
plished without use of military force,
the next step might be to bring the
Red army into action.

HOLY LAND:
What NOU?

In its first positive action since the
U. S. backed away from its stand
favoring partition, the United Ma
tons security council issued a call to
both Jews and Arabs to stop fight
ing in Palestine.
It probably was a gesture Of i'm
potence, rendered even more i'm
potent by the fact that the security
council, although it laid down spe-
cific truce d~irectfyes to both fac
lions, decided against sending a U.N.
commission to the scene Of trouble
to check on compliance.
Russia, continuing to favor the
partition plan, refused to support the
truce proposal but at the same time
Andrea Gromyko, Soviet delegate, re-
Trained from applying Russia's big
power veto and thus permitted the
agreement to be concluded.
There was no assurance that either
Jewish or Arab forces would agree
to a United Nations truce and lay
down their arms.
Well aware that the truce proposal
had little or no significance in the
pattern of the Holy Land tragedy,
U. N. delegates shook their heads
gloomily and wondered if the United
Nations, not yet three years old,
might not be a blue baby.
1t was clear that the u. MS lack
of ''elan vital'' in the Palestine prob
lem stemmed directly from the de-
cline of American prestige and
leadership in the world organization.
After having pushed the partition
plan through the U. N. by the sheer
weight of its apparent conviction,
the U. S. suddenly abandoned its
support of partition in order to dab
BILE in power politics with Middle
East oil as the stakes. Instead of
partition U. S. leaders advocated Q
temporary United Nations trustee
ship. But they failed to indicate
what kind of trusteeship or exactly
how they thought it should be en-
forced.
While the American U. N. delega-
ton was playing h~ard-to-get, other
delegates were asking What are we
here for?""
Unofficial explanation was that the
u. S. was trying, through Secretary
of State George Marshall in Bogota,
Colombia, to get some South Amer
lean nations to offer to supply the
troops that will be needed to enforce
a trusteeship.
