A NEW BONANZA has appeared
on the agricultural landscape in re-
cent months in the form of chemi-
Gals. Words by the millions have
been written describing their vari-
Gus properties, potentialities, and
methods in use.
From the farmers standpoint,
probably the. information which is
most lacking is emphasis on the linn
itations of various chemicals in the
field of agriculture. This is espe-
cially true with 2,4-D products in
relation to weed control. Since
2,4-D has an extremely high poten-
tial use over widespread areas in
Montana, it seems advisable to point
out some of the considerations
which should be taken into account
before treating crops for weed con-
troll.
Number. Kind of Weeds
In crops that are entirely free
from weeds, it is questionable if
benefits from spraying will be justi-
fled from the standpoint of in
creased yields. The weed popula-
ton is, therefore, the first consid-
Grafton.
The kind of weeds present is the
second consideration. Unfortunately
not all weeds are susceptible to
2,4-D. In general, however, most of
the broadleaf ANIMALS are s~uscepti-
BILE to selective treatment. On the
other hand, most of the grass-like
plants are more or less resistant to
2,4-D. As a guide to susceptibility,
the following list of plants most
commonly found in Montana crops
is submitted:

rennials.)
Bracken Milkweeds
Cactus, prickly Ragwort

Application Rates
The third consideration to be
given is with respect to rates. The
recommended rates should be fol-
lowed religiously. The old saying
"if a little is good, more is better"
does not apply to treating weeds in
growing crops. Most crops are sue
ceptible to 2,4-D in certain amounts
and at certain stages of growth.
There also appear to be varietal diff
ferences in small grain, flax, and
corn. In general, the manufacturers
recommendation is safe. If in doubt,
consult your county agents as to
rates and recommended methods.
Equipment
A fourth consideration of great
Importance is the equipment. The
sprayer Or buster should be capable
of putting on a uniform application
evenly distributed at the exact rate
you desire. This means your ma
chine should be elaborated before
starting treatment. Local dealers
and county agents can give some
good suggestions as to how this can
be done. The truck or tractor
should be capable of maintaining
a uniform rate of speed while trans
porting the sprayer. In using low
~gallonage sprays, accuracy of speed
and celebration is very important.
Time of Application
To derive the maximum benefit
from the control of weeds, consid
Grafton should also be given to tn,
time of application. In small grain

You've got to keep blowing back in rairoading too.
In rairoading, you've got to keep blowing money back.
New money is needed continually for new, more efficient
rolling stock, for better roadbed and tracks, improved
signals. New money is needed for a thousand improve
ments in plant and equipment-to insure better and
better service-to keep open national markets for your
products-to do a better job for you.
The ability of the railroads to obtain this money
depends upon railroad earnings. And adequate railroad
earnings depend upon rates and fares in line with today's
costs of producing freight and passenger transportation.
It's good business for your railroads to be allowed rates
which will enable them to maintain the transportation
service you need.
For everybody's business is linked vitality to efficient,
economical railroad service. Everybody's business
including yours!

Labor Education
Washington post)

An education extension program for industrial workers on something like the pattern of the Agrl- cultural Extension Service which makes educational assistance available the farm population, is so sensible idea that it is wonder it wasn't put into effect by Congress long ago Senate Education and Labor Subcommittee has just completed hearings on bill to establish such a programa bill introduced Tn the last session of Congress by Senators Morse ana Thomas of Utah. The AFL, the CIO and the Railway Erotherhoods joined in supporting the proposal, and such progressive industrialists Charles Luckman and Cyrus Eaton gave it their indorsement It is to be hoped that the House Labor Committee Will ma time to consider the measure soon
 The bill has been carefully drafted in such way as to make Federal funds available grants-n-a aid for labor extension service while retaining effective control of the program in the hands of the partcpat- ing universities and the industrial workers desiring it's benefits That great numbers of workers need and want such service has been abundantly demonstrated Tn point of fact 79 colleges and universities are now carving out some labor education program Wisconsin Michigan, Bryn Mawr Harvard and Yale, among them But these cannot, of course, begin to meet the demands of 42 million wage-earners. Under the Morse Thomas bill Federal funds would be made available only when local labor group having worked cut with local institution Of learning program ap proved by a State labor extension council requested aid and when 25 per cent of the funds required were made available locally.
 This program is not aimed any sense at voca- tional training Neither it supposed to take the place high school regular college education Its concern with labor problems and industrial relations with the responsibilities of workers as union mem bers and citizens It would equip labor carry out it's share of the collective bargaining process more ef- Actively in it's own interest and in the public interest In doing this could greatly to promote some stable and peaceful relations between unions and

kARLUK FISHING CASE IS GOING 10
 HIGHEST COURT

WASHINGTON, April 6.--lR-- The Supreme Court has agreed to review decision that the Secre- taiy of the Interior could not in- clude certain tidelands in a res ervation for the benefit of the Karluk Indians of Alaska.
 The Secretary in petitioning the Supreme Court for a review said natives of the Karluk tribe live solely by fishing. He said the inclusion of the waters in their reservation was intended to pro- tect them as wards of the govern ment.
 The order applied to waters at the mouth of the Karluk River on Kodiak Island, off the southern coast of Alaska A group of com- mercial fishing companies won in lower Federal courts a decision that the Secretary was not au- thorized to include such lands in a reservation when the reservation had been created out of public lands.

LOGGING OPERATIONS
 IN FULL SWING AT KAKE

A news release dated Rake, March 31, says logging operations are in full swing at Fake. A crew of Is men began operations today in the area recognized by the Department Of the Interior as belonging to Rake community The 53 hemlock and spruce trees cut today is just warm up for the much larger operations that are anticipated within the next few months.
 The crew-all Rake men-in- cluding fallers, trimmers, buckers, hook tenders, chokers and boomers, were in high spirits. Thomas L. Jackson, manager of the timber project, is well satisfied with the first days work and states that he will expand operations as soon as possible He estimates an out put of 10000 board feet a day when the sawmill begins opera tions. Jackson also announced that the men employed are being paid the current wages as elsewhere in similar logging enterprises.
 The Timber Development Com pany, with which the Rake com munity has a contract, assured them that it will take all the logs and timber they can produce.

during the war, General Collins pointed out that these officers were not West Pointers and that the Army couldn't do anything about it.
 However, General Ingles is a West Pointer, and now draws a pension from American taxpayers. Finally, the Army could easily bring suit against RIGA to show that it will not tolerate actions of this kind in the future. Such a suit has been prepared by the Justice Department, but the Army says no. It not only says no, but it surrounds the radar patent case with strict and mysterious secrecy.
 May I suggest that the Army must put it's own house in order by cleaning out brass-hat big business favoritism before it can get or keep the confidence of the men it now seeks to draft into a new, efficient fighting force.
 Yours sincerely,
 Drew Pearson.

as early as Dec 19, l947 the amazing fact that the Army had permitted the Radio Corporation of America to make available to the Germans and laps in 1888 our most priceless radar secrets, and that the Army had done ab- solutely nothing to reprove either the radio corporation or the Army officers who were negligent.
 I asked you first orally, then in a letter dated Feb. ? to give me the facts on this case Two months is a long time to wait for a reply to an inquiry. Having heard noth- ing from you, I have obtained copies of some of the secret records myself. They tell a shocking story. Here it is.
 Back in 1882, the Signal Corps got orders to produce a device for locating the approach Of enemy airplanes while they were still out of sight. Lieut.. Col William Blair, Commander of Signal Corps Lab oratories at Monmouth, N. J., put a young civilian named William D. Hershherger on this job, under pr. Samuel Anderson in the Sound and Light section.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1948-04-06
RADAR IS BORN

HerShDerger, working on the idea of having radio waves bounce back from an object, finally used heavy filament tubes to produce a mic ro-ray machine which he tested out on a Signal Corps launch, the Russell, and which was able to detect passing boats, towers and aircraft.
 Thus after four years intensive work, was born the miraculous in- venticn called radarAa secret which no foreign country then knew about and which the Army believed might revolutionize mod ern warfare. It meant that you could detect ships in the fog and prepare for approaching enemy airplanes before their arrival.
 Shortly after perfecting this treasurer secret Hershberger left the Signal Corps April 1936) i, studied for time at the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania, then in the Spring of l947 joined the Radio Corporation of America.
 A few months later, Jan. II, 1888, the radio corporation filed at the U. S. Patent Office for Patent No. 2,401,7l7, the basic patent on ra- dar It listed as joint inventors Wm D. Hershberger and L. Wolff, an RAG Laboratory man who had done some previous work with Hershberger.
