Hopper Batting in
Area to Be
-
Aided by County

Plans Tor the range graSSnOp-
per control program were dis
cussed at a special meeting of
the board of county commits
sioners here on Monday, March
81, when a number of interest
ed ranchers appeared to ex-
press favor of such a program
this year.
The board has agreed to ap-
propriate county funds to sup
plement the contributions of
individual ranchers to make the
program more effective. In
addition to county and indi-
vidual funds which will amount
to about Is per cent of the
total estimated cost, there will
be state and federal funds
available. % .
The board has set Thursday,
April IA, as the final date for
receiving contributions for the
range grasshopper program. On
that date an agreement must
be signed with the Federal Bu-
reau of Entomology, which is
in charge of the program oper-
atl0nS. .E., ~
Interested ranchers who wish
to contribute to this program
are advised to do so as soon
as possible and not later than
April IA. Contributions made
will be payable to Big Horn
county and will be received by
the county clerk and recorder.
Such contributions will then
be deposited in a special fund
to be used for financing the
range grasshopper control pro-
gram. ALI contributions will be
accepted with the understand
ing that such funds will be ex-
pended as the Federal Bureau
of Entomology may direct and
without any guarantee of bait
ing any particular area on any
contributors range holdings.
Contributors will have the as
surance, however, that the Blu
reau of Entomology will select
areas for batting where the
need seems to be the greatest
for all concerned.
As soon as the several species
of range hoppers start to hatch,
the Bureau will send trained
entomologists into the infested
areas to select territory for air
plane batting.
Following the survey, batting
operations will begin. It is es-
timated that two to three
weeks will be required for the
survey of Matching beds and
then about 80 days for the
batting operations.

s2,541.5Ob IS Share
For County
In 1850 Tax Bill

Big Horn county taxpayers
will be called upon to pay ST.
541 500 in direct and hidden
taxes as their share of the cost
Of the $41, 1855, O00, 900 Federal
budget proposed by President
Truman for the fiscal year be-
ginning July /, 1919, and end
ing June 80, 1850.
The amount is a part of the
state Of Montana's share Of
$134,088, 600.
These estimates Of the effect
of the Federal spending pro-
gram on taxpayers, both indi-
yidualS and business concerns
of Montana, were revealed re-
Gently in a joint study made by
the Montana Chamber of Com
merce and the Montana Tax
payers association.
The study showed that the
share of the 1850 Federal bud
get cost to be borne by Mon
tana is more than twice the
total amount of all taxes col
Slected ii the state in 1913 to
finance tine entire cost of the
state government, the operation
of all public schools, the cost
of county government and the
cost of city and town govern
ment.
President Truman's budget
was submitted to Congress in
January. Its spending requests
are now being studied by ap-
preparations committees of the
House and Senate for their ap-
prevail or revision preparatory
to final action by the whole
Congress.
Commenting on the figures
showing the state of Montana,
Big Horn county'S share Of the
cost of the Federal establish
ment, Big Horn County Cham
Der of Commerce spokesman
said:
"This is a pretty stiff tax
bill for Big Horn county. People
here at home must realize that
I U1lCy Ui~lCllloClNCo lIdYC : III IOOU
the bill for the services render
ed by the Federal government.
The money handed out so Law
ishly by Washington comes
from the people in the states,
minus, of course, the political
brokerage of the bureaucrats.
"This 41.9-billion-dollar bud
get is not the whole story. In
addition, there will be deficiency
and supplemental appropria-
tons added from time to time
to carry this Colossus of Gov
eminent through the year. Con-
tract authorizations will be
made for work that will run
into more billions before COM
pletion. Still more billions will
be added ultimately to the cost
of Federal government if new
spending proposals are passed"
The computations were ar
rived at by estimating Mon
tana'S share on a three-point
formula comprising Federal tax
collections in this state, the
state'S share Of the national
income, and population.

Ripping .
of the Rivers

Harold Tippie Of Hardin
spent a little more time shop
ping at Miles and Timer one
evening recentlv than he had
intended to, when he got-lock-
ed in after closing hours.
In a rush to get out at clos
ing time so they could help
load some machinery, the force
locked the store, unaware of
the fact that Mr.. Tippie was
browsing over the merchandise.
Realizing that he was impris-#
oned, Mr.. Tippie stood at a
window and when a pedestrian
passed attempted to wave him
down. The paSser-by obligingly
waved back and continued on
his way until he realized the
mans predicament and re-
turned to summon aid.
After some delay in locating
the proprietor, the cooped-up
customer was freed. !:
With their new addition to
the store, we guess the Miles
and Ulmer force will have to
take more time to scour the
premises for hidden patrons
hereafter, before locking up for
the day.
We note that Governor Bon
ner vetoed a bill which would
have placed an extra one cent
TOW On n~ioarntfaS -hapauSa he
said, he promised in his cam
paign that he was against a
sales tax.
However, the governor didn't
mind slapping a three dollar
use tax on automobiles. The
money is probably needed for
roads, as the governor said, but
we wonder what became of the
immense amount which, &C
cording to Governor Bonner's
campaign oratory, ex-governor
Ford had boarded while the
roads of the state were going
to pot.

can Chamber of Commerce Thurs
day night, Douglas Blythe, second
vice president of that organiza

our relations with them but that
in the past six months I'VE have

Mr.. Blythe visited the offices

officials on his visit and they all
expressed great interest in the
work that the Camara de Com

He reported that Cuban Off
Gals, travel directors and the
people themselves expressed the
unanimous and very definite
opinion that Key West could ex-
pect very definite increase in
intercourse and travel if we kept
awake after $50 each night with
more activities which would at

if we offered more facilities such
as the Casa Marina opened on a

There were also number of in
