Longs for Montana

WE USED TO LIVE in Columbia
Falls, Mont, but moved to Iowa in
1894. My husband died Oct. "a, 1947.
We have always taken Montana
Farmer-Stockman and I get so
homesick for Montana's hills I can
hardly stand it sometimes. I even
read all the ads in the paper, as
they seem to bring home a little
nearer
I would like to tell Mrs. J. c. w.
of Broadwater county to make a
weak solution of water and Black
leaf 40, about 1 teaspoon of Black
leaf to gallon of water and spray
her rose with it. 1 usually spray
mine one a week, and they are SO
nice. Just a little hand sprayer like
you use for mosquitoes will do

What l Miss

YEARS HAVE FLOWN, many of
them, and here I find myself an old
man. l am reminded of the line in
the poem: my birthday lessons are
done!" Still my memory turns back
to the days when I was a boy, and
to me it doesn't seem SO very long.
When l was a boy the robin sang
his noisy tune with all his might,
just as if the world were his, and
the suns rising depended upon him
to the opening day. I have
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-06-01

not heard that glad, noisy tune In
many years, and l wonder why the
little fellow has changed his mind,
for today the robin does not perch
atop the tree as of yore and twitter
his glad tidings.
Even the lark does not sing all the
tunes he used to sing. I have listened
for him to sing one I remember from
years ago. 1t went this way as I
recall it:
"Git there, Ely; stiff upper lip!"
1 miss the return of spring as l
used to know it in Montana. Living
today where there is just season,
I become bored with the sameness of
it. I miss the friendly greetings that
I used to know when I spent most
of my time in the saddle and could
ride in to any ranch any time and
find a hearty welcome.
True it is, there were In those
days so-called bad men and cattle
rustlers and petty quarrels, but
those characters have all vanished
from the scene. and today I think
Montana is outstanding for its high
quality citizens.
Like a child crying for the moon,
something he surely cannot have,
so it is with mel might cry my
eyes out, but the dear, dead past is
gone. no longing will ever bring it
back to mechanics H. Baumfield,
California.

Loves Coming

ITO some, love comes as softly
n AS spring come to the earth;
So gently that they cannot tell
The moment of its birth.
To some it comes like whirlwind,
Or sudden soaring flame,
But when it come, no matter how,
Lies never more the same.

Lucky Little FeAow,
Witb n ne1U Crane Bathroom

Lucky Mother, too! Il just don't know how we got along
before" she says. Running water has brought so much COM
fort and convenience to our home"
Work-saviug too! Give these Crane fixtures a quick once-over
with a damp cloth, and watch them sparkle!
The faucets are something new-Crane DiaLese-they turn
on and off just as easily as a radio dial.
You get this same convenience in the kitchen with a new
Crane sink -. and in the laundry with a Crane tub they
both have DaLese faucets just like the bathroom fixtures.
And outside? Ask this little fellows dad. He says be never
knew how easy chores could be till he got running water in
his barns.
True! And yoaH never know how easily you can have all
this comfort and convenience till you talk it over with your
Crane Dealer. Stop in next time you're in town you may
find it costs less than you think to have modern Crane plumb
ing for your farm and home.

A SAGA Of the Baltic People
Some Facts You Should Know about the
Baltic People

refugees have already been recog-
nized by resolutions of the UNRRA
Council and have been recommend
ed to the United Nations by deci-
sions Of the Special Committee on
Refugees, screening boards in the
American zone have deprived Lat
Wan refugees of displaced persons
rights, although being prosecuted by
the Soviet authorities these refu-
gees left Latvia in 1941 and till now
have retained their Latvian citizen
ship.
The second category of Baltic re-
fugees who are deprived of their
displaced persons status by the
American screening boards are per-
sons who have entered the Amer-
can zone from other zones Of oc-
cupation after August 1st, 1915, in
order to join their relatives. These
refugees could be admitted to DIP

camps only with the assent of UN-
IRA and the Military Government.
1t cannot be supposed that these au
thorities acted illegally. Besides,
this preclusive date was never an
nounced before and therefore has
retroactive force. A screening pro-
cedure Of this nature is contrary to
all principles of justice and of Pc
nal codes.
The third group Of refugees COM
ing under the category of displaced
persons not eligible for UNRRA care
are collaborators. In May 1916 UN-
RRA'S central headquarters sent

How we'll summer shoes wear de-
pends on how they are cleaned,
clothing specialists say. The right
cleaning not only keeps them look
ing new but also makes them last
longer.
White shoes should be cleaned off
the foot and not worn until they
are thoroughly dry. If worn damp,
the leather or fabric may stretch
out of shape. Put in shoe trees or
stuff with tissue paper before clean
ing.
There is no one cleaner that is
equally good for all white shoes. The
specialists advise reading the label
on the cleaner to be sure it is re-
commended for the type Of leather
or fabric in the shoes. In general,
white shoe soap is best for white
smooth leather because it cleans
without drying and hardening the
leather. Dressing that contains
whitening material like chalk is suit
ed to cloth shoes. Old dressing
should always be brushed out before
applying more. Shoes of white suede
or other mapped leather may be
"Powder-cleaned" rather than liquid
cleaned. Use one of the buffer bags
of chalk-like material sold for the
purpose.
If white shoes are grass-stained,
first brush or sponge off the old pol
ish, then brush with a solution of
sodium perborate (sold at drug
stores for cleaning teeth) or perox-
ide. Then rinse and polish, working
rapidly in order not to wet the shoes
any more than necessary.

The outlook for 1913 and a review
Of District USES activities last year
are carried in the latest labor market
news report Of the local Office.
The District USES reported that,
during 1947, an average Of less than
two workers were referred to en-
ployers to fill each job opening. The
number referred to each job, it was
explained, varies with the qualifica-
tions, but during 1947 $1,000 were
hired out Of 10000 referred.
The USES predicted some expan-
sien of job opportunities, but said
this will be hardly perceptible"
unless legislative action creates new
Government agencies and thereby
increases local business activity.
Frankly admitting that I'VE were
wrong" the report referred to its
prediction that employment would
decline during last November and
noted that employment actually
reached the highest point Of the
year that month.
The number Of unemployed
dropped to 10000 during the last two
months of last year, the USES re-
ported, but construction and sales
activities are now in their seasonal
decline and unemployment u ex-
pected to increase.
The USES reported that 10000
visits were made to the Ideal en-
ployment Offices last year, 5000
persons applied to the USES for jobs
for the first time, $4,000 received
special counseling service, 5000 were
given proficiency tests, 5000 job
orders were received and 5000 per-
sonal calls were made by USES field
Representatives on local employers.
More than 200 persons now are
applying daily to the employment
offices here for the first time, the
USES added.
