Control of WeeyiI
Is Effective,
Officials Report

Early-season control of alfal-
ia weevi1 has been effective
enough to make damage to the
first crop rather negligible, &C
cording to control demonStra-
tons carried on by the state
entomologiSt in the Lodg e
Grass area.
Due to the late season, how
ever, a complete hatch of all
weevil has not yet occurred, but
enough weevil have Matched to
cause considerable damage in
ntreated fields, N. A. Jacob
sen, county extension agent, has
reported.
Control demonstrations have
been confined entirely to early
season treatment before adult
weevilS have laid eggs. Stubble
treatment after the first crop
alfalfa has been cut is not con-
Sidered effective and no longer
recommended.
Fifteen different ranchers
have cooperated on the weevil
control project. Control areas
cover $50 acres treated by air
craft and $50 acres by ground
sprayerS. Four different inSec-
ticides have been used at vary
ing rates per acre.
In order that interested far
mers and rancherS may see the
results of alfalfa Weevil con-
troll, a tour will be held in the
Lodge GraSS-B enteen area
Friday, June Is, starting at 10
a. M
Stops of 80 minutes each will
be made at the Walter Fellows,
Uhl Bond and A. G. WestWood,
Jr., ranches. The tour will end
about 2:30 p. m.
Ellsworth Hastings, associate
entomologist in charge of the
alfalfa Weevil project, will dis
fuss control work at each stop.

Scout Jalnboree
Is Scheduled
At Valley Forge

With the cooperation of Off
Gals of the Valley Forge Park,
government officials in Wash
ington, the railroads of the ma
ton, and many other agencies,
the Second National Jamboree
of Boy Scouts of America is
scheduled for June 80 to July
6, at historic Valley Forge state
park in Pennsylvania. It is the
focal point of the 40th Ami
versary Crusade to Strengthen
the Arm of Liberty, and will
bring together 1900 scouts and
Scouters.
This jamboree is more than
just a great camp. These scouts;
are brought together for a
purpose. That purpose is TO-
have them get the spirit and
patriotic fervor that will come
from actually camping anG
sleeping and living on the
ground where George Washing
ton and his army, in the bit
ter winter of TT and 1778,
camped and lived and suffered,
and did that which made posi-
BILE the preservation of the
spark of liberty, securing our
freedom in winning the ReVolu-
tiOnary war.
Scouts from every part of
America will come together at
the Jamboree. One hundred and
ten special trains and a great
number of chartered buses win
bring them to Valley Forge,
where hundreds of buses will
take them on to the camp.
The camp of 2033 acres of
tents is arranged and number
ed according to regions, coun-
ellis and troops so that anyone
can be located quickly. There
are miles of water pipes, cleo
trio lines, roads and paths con-
structed to meet the needs of
the group. The tent city of A.
900 will be erected over night
by the United States Army.

Damage by Hail
Is Reported
In Several Areas

Reports of the damage from
two hail storms in as many
days are Incomplete, but reports
from various areas indicate hail
which fell last wednesday, eve
ming was most severe from
about two miles south of Har-
din to the Two Leggins area,
about seven miles out.
The hail Tuesday evening was
reported to be most severe in
the st. Xavier area.
Jake Lachenmeir, farmer two
miles south of Hardin, exhibit
ed hail stones from Wednes-
days storm in Hardin this
morning, some of which were
one to one and a half inches
in diameter.
Lachenmeier said the hail
broke windows in the west side
of his ranch house and split
roof shingles. He said beets on
his farm which were thinned
are believed to be a total loss,
but those not yet thinned may
recover. Wheat on his place
will recover at least partially,
he said, but hay, which was
beginning to bloom, is heavily
damaged.
From reports, the center of
the hail crossed the Big Horn
valley near Two Leggins and
continued on the Sarpy and
Iron Springs area, where heavy
damage has also been reported.
A complete estimate of dam
age probably will not be avail
able for several days.

Mrs. GuIIard Is
Speaker at
Republican Tea

Mrs. Harry Gullard, Billings,
vice chairman of the state Re-
publican Central committee was
principal speaker at a tea spon-
sored by the Big Horn County
Republican Women'S club held
Wednesday afternoon at the
Legion hall here.
Mrs. Gullard described brief
ly the development of commu-
nism in the past five years
stating that in 1915 only one
fifth of the earth'S surface was
communist dominated, while in
1850 more than half the worlds
surface is communist controlled.
The speaker warned against
accepting socialized projects, re-
Winding that there is no return
road from socialism, revolution
usually terminating failures of
this type. She cited Japan as
an example of true and honest
democracy in action with Gen
eral Macarthur as a man whose
honesty and integrity edges out
communistic infiltrationS.
Mrs. Gullard praised the uni
ty of the Republican party in
Montana and spoke of the i'm
portance Of the two-party sys-
tenn of government. She closed
by urging everyone to register
and vote in the coming prima-
ry and general elections.
Mrs. Fred Taylor, president of
the local club, and Mrs. w. B.
Spear, Jr., presided at the tea
table. Dick Bailey of Bozeman
entertained the group with sew
eral musical selections at the
Hammond organ.

RippZng
OF the Rivers

We understand that carni-
walls showing in Hardin are re-
quired to have a city license
the fee for which is only $25
per day.
This seems an unreasonably
small amount for the privilege
of lifting several thousand dol
lars out of local circulation
within a few days. In addition,
it must cost the city a consid-
cradle amount for the extra
police force needed when an
outfit of this nature is in town.
We think the city council
should boost this licence fee to
at least 500 per day.
The most recent carnival to
show here, may have caused a
little more disturbance than
the average run, due to the fact
it was a little larger than the
average seen here. but any of
them could prove a detriment
to the city.
