Taylor Resigns After
80 Years Service

AFTER NEARLY SO years of con-
tinuous service to Montana agricul-
ture, ]. c.. Taylor, director eneri-
tus of the Montana extension serv-
ice since 1916 and prior to that x
tension director for 20 years, retired
Nov. 80, it was announced by Presi-
dent R. R. Renne of Montana State
college.
A native Montanan, Taylor began
his extension career April 1, 1914,
as district agent for Dawson and Fal-
lon counties and was one of the first
three county agents to pioneer ex-
tension work in the state.
Taylor's rise in extension was
rapid and a year after beginning
work he was named Custer county
agent. In 1917 he was made assist
ant county agent leader, advancing
to acting leader in 1921 and to leader
in 1928. In 1924 Taylor was named
acting director and a year later he
became director, a position he held
until Dec. 81, 1945, when at his own
request he was relieved of admins
trative responsibilities. He was sue
ceeded by R. B. Tootell, present di-
rector.
To his extension work Taylor
brought the practical experience
gained on a farm. He was born and
raised near Utica, Mont, and after
graduation from Chinook high school
he enrolled at Montana State col
lege, graduating in 1912.
While director of extension Taylor
was prominent in the activities of a

When we got to the outfit which
had stopped a few yards after the
wagon turned over, n of the wheel
ers was down on his back in a little
wash. The other three were stand
ing waiting for the next move.
After we saw the horses didn't need
help we went to see if Pink needed
any. He was. sitting on the ground
holding his head. The sage brush
had broken his fall and falling on
his head wouldn't hurt him.
Baking Powder?
The other boys were making a
circle, SO we three had to pick up
the mess. The top of the mess box
had hit a bump and torn it up
bad. Everything scattered around.
Pink got a spoon and was putting
baking powder into an empty can.
Tex told him there were a dozen
cans in the wagon, but Pink said
it wasn't baking powder; it was
strychnine sulphate he poisoned
wolves with. He kept it in the mess
box and knew it from the baking
powder because he had torn the
label from the IAN.
That evening John got the whole
story, so he made more medicine.
Pink wasn't cook anymore, just one
of the riders. 1t was Tex's turn to
cook. Pink wouldn't have a turn.

each of us, the ones we'd sooner not
have and gave them to Pink. Pink

But nowadays the systems
changed, the whole routine's been
rearranged. Electric b rooders
purr along, it's seldom anything
goes wrong; the house gets
cleaned just once a year, there's
nothing bout the chores to fear,
'cuz feeders hold a weeks supply,
the pipe-fed fountains can't run
dry. Each high-producing pullet
lays so well Mirandy gladly pays
for her own chicks and for the
feed, and there's no longer any
need for me to sit up with the
sows or struggle with a bunch of
cows; now I can rest my back and
legs, and live off of Mirandy's
eggs.

We were making a circle of Tele-

I think it was the most

wall-eyed sorrel. I twisted the end
of my lines around the saddle horn
to roll my smoke and Sleepy went to
chewing on a bunch of grass.
I'd just got my cigaret lit when
Sleepy exploded. My reins were
gone, I pulled the strings off my sad
die. My head was popping like the
silk on a stage coach whip until I
found myself sitting on a rock with
a dead RATHER in my hand.
1 asked Tex what happened, and
he said, 'That RATHER you got was
hanging on Sleepy's nose" Sleepy
took me into camp but he was a sick
pony next morning. You couldn't
have got his head in two wash tubs.

This is the fourth of a series in

spring of 1899. AT the close of

brush as I circled the ~decaying pile
of what had been a short time be-
fore, a band of North Americas
most beautiful wild animals. l took
a quick estimate of the number of
antelope that had fallen as I hur-
ried away. I thought that at least
200 lay there while the noisy mag
pies surveyed them from the rocks
above.
I had made a wide circle, the sun
was getting low and l was hungry.
AS you know, a horse outfit has
two meals a day except when you
might slip a flap-jack into your hip
pocket to eat on circle. l was about
10 miles from the wagon when l
met Pink and one of the boys.
Pink's pinheaded bay he had been
riding when he left the wagon in
the morning had taken a bucking
spell when he found a nice steep
hill to go down among some badland
washcuts. He had landed in one
that was too deep and narrow to
let his feet touch the ground and
he hung suspended by his sides with
his feet about three feet from the
bottom.
All he could do was wiggle his
toes and throw his head, after pull
ing and jerking for about twenty
minutes. With a rope around the
saddle and another on his heels we
pulled him down the coulee until
his feet touched the ground. When
we got him on the level he didn't
look like a horse that would buck.
Pink dug out some buckskin that
night. The 10-mile walk had almost
ruined his moccasins. He had stuffed
them with grass to shield his feet
from the prickly pears.

evening with the cold rain trickling
down the spines of the boys who
didn't have slickers, which included
me. We made Jim ThornhilT's our
headquarters for several days. He
had quite a few horses.
Jim and his tiger, and two Pike
Landusky girls who also had horses
that were hard to handle, joined up
with us to make a pool. Any of the
boys that thought them Landusky
girls were not top hands changed
their minds.
In about 10 days we had all the
country cleaned that we could reach
from Jim's place. When John told
us we would have to move, I felt
terrible. I didn't eat for three days
when I learned that we were to leave
the wagon and take a pack outfit.
John made that medicine to get rid
of u two top hands. Tex wanted
to quit.
DrY-Cured Snake
The next morning we were shap-
ing our bed to throw the S hitch
when Tex shook a RATHER from our
blankets. 1t was dry cured. Tex said
he remembered killing him away
back there on Willow creek a month
ago. Sometimes Tex slept with his
boots on when he had to stand on
early guard. He said he felt some
thing crawling over his ankles and
thought it was a pack rat so he
stamped it a few times and went
back to sleep.
John left Ed Shuefeldt and the
wrangler to herd what horses we
had. We were headed for Peoples
creek by way of the south side of the
Little Rockies. Jim had a rawhide
pair of hobbies around each of his
saddle horses necks. Someone said
hobbling makes a horse stiff in front
Jim said he'd sooner have a stiff
horse than a horse track.
We had picked up a few more
horses by the time we reached Peo-
pies creek. John decided to make
camp there a few days. Tex and
were riding circle between the prong:

was part of the old Freight-Bo ttom-

RAMP BRINGS NON
SQUAT MILKING

CONWAY. 1 Ark. -{APl-If
milking bossy gives you a back
ache, Farmer H. o. Proctor fig
ures he can save you a lot of
stoops. It's just a matter of put
ting the COW on a higher level
than the mixer, says Proctor,
who operates farm near here.
Proctor used to wear himself
out STOPPING over to milk his 20
80 cows each day. He thought up
the idea of building a ramp
around his barn high enough so
that when he has to milk all he
does is to reach out and attach
electrical squeezers. Everything
is set-with no back bending.
The old method required one
bend to wash off each cows set
of faucets; another to attach the
electrical milking machine and a
third to remove the mechanical
apparatus That's six squats per
cow per day. Since Proctor milks
an average of 20 cows twice a
day for 10 months, that repre-
sents $4,000 stoops he now saves
each year-or so he figures.

What may be his final work is
now in the hands of publisher.
DR.. Nagai was professor at
Nagasaki medical college. His
field was. rays. His experiments
over 20 years had exposed him
to radiation which medical ex-
perts told him would doom. him
to an early death. Serene in his
adopted Catholicism, he continu-
ed his teaching and work. Then
on the morning of Aug 9. 1915,
the atom bomb burst on Maya
saki as DR.. Nagai was teaching
in his classroom.
His wife, was killed and his
home vanished. His school was
destroyed, and he suffered severe
burns on the right side. The
death of which he already had
been warned was brought close
and made certain.
DR.. Nagai donated his blood to
researchers in efforts to save the
lives of bomb radiation victims.
He personally visited the injured
until too weak to. resist orders
to go to bed. Doctors now say
he may live through the sum-
mer, perhaps. into the autumn.
Unable to continue visiting the
dying to tell of his faith in a
hereafter, his hatred of war and
his belief in the brotherhood of
man, DR., Nagai decided to write
his views. His first published
book was Leaving These Chill
dren Behind. collection of es-.
says on, Christianity, the atom
bomb and his two small children,
who were not in Nagasaki when
the bomb fell, and thus escaped.
This. book has sold more than
100000 copies and tops Japan's
best sellers. DR.. Nagai's first
book was Bells of Nagasaki",
which was published last jan
uary, three years after a publish
er had accepted it. Beads of the
Rosary" and "River of Life" are
his two other works.
Despite ever-increasing royal
ties, he has not altered his sim
pie living habits. He draws only
enough money for daily expenses.
The rest goes into a fund for re-
building war-razed Catholic
