URGED TO
EDUCATE CHILDREN
IN USE OF FIRE ARMS

Summer is just around the cor
ner. According to the calendar, the
boys and girls who comprise the
student bodies of u school system
here in Montana will be loosed
from their educational shackles for
three months vacation in a matter
of some short weeks.
A great source of diversion for
Treasure State youth in the past
has been to take gun in hand and
scour hill and dale for likely look
ing targets at which to shoot.
These vacation rifle-hikes are not
expected to decrease this year. On
the contrary, it is anticipated that
more young men and women,
with small caliber weapons,
will be afield than eve before.
From the Montana fish and
game departments Helena offices
came a request to all parents of
these young people to be certain
that their offspring are well edu-
Gated in the handling of firearms
before they are turned loose.
Twenty-Five caliber weapons, and
others of similar size, are not play

R. Thomson, Jr., M of the six
State university students who lost
their lives in the disastrous Mann
Gulch forest fire last August near
Helena, Dean Ross Williams of the
M. S. U. school of forestry an
nounced today.
Thompson, 81, was a junior stu
dent in forestry and an army vet
eran. He and four of the M. S. u.
students who died were smoke
jumpers who had parachuted on the
big fire; the other student was 4
fire guard who had joined them
during the emergency. They and
seven other fire fighters were
trapped on a steep mountainside in
the Gates of the Mountains region
when the area around them burst
into flames.
Thompson's parents established
a scholarship as a memorial to
their son, leaving administration
of the fund to university officials,
who plan a permanent scholarship
in Thompson's name to aid forestry
students.
DIR. james A. Mccain, university
president, said in a letter to
Thompson's parents, "Your schol-
arship will be a permanent memo
rial to the selflessness and cour-
age which were manifested in the
tragic incident which cost Ray
mond's life. Further, it will hold
up to future generations of Mon
tana' state university forestry stu
dents the high standards of schol-
arship, fellowship and professional
spirit which he exemplified."

Tame hay condition on May 1

than reported a year ago and 5 per
cent under the 10-year average.
The May l pasture condition was
10 per cent, compared with the
10-year average of SO per cent.
Stocks of hay on Montana farms
and ranches amounted to 223,000
tons. This is the smallest carry
over since 1887 and is only one
third of the average for the dec
ade, 1939-48. Many farmers and
ranches exhausted their hay
supplies during April and had diff
ficulty obtaining hay to carry live

ton for April last year. The

bered 1000 less than the CORE

compared with 1,446,000 layers and
production of 26 million eggs dur

U. S. Central Report
Crops prospects in general were
less encouraging than usual On
May l. Winter wheat developed
slowly in most areas and deterior-
ated further in the dry southwest,
reflecting growing conditions less
favorable than usual during April.
Additional abandonment decreased
the acreage for harvest and slow
growth lowered yield prospects.
Winter wheat production is now
estimated at 600 million bushels.
Seeding of spring wheat has been
seriously delayed in the important
Minnesota -Dakota-M Montana area
and farmers may find it impracti-
cal to seed their full intended
acreage. With only average yields
in the spring wheat areas, pro-
duction of all wheat may fall be-
low a billion bushels for the first
time in seven years. The first Of
fetal estimate of spring wheat
production is scheduled for June Q.

WHEAT FORECAST
LOWER THAN l949
Northern Section Of State
Winter Wheat Suffered
Greatest Winter Kill

The 1850 crop season in Mon
tana has opened several weeks
later than usual but an abundance
of top soil moisture will give crops
a good start. Winter wheat pro-
duction, from a reduced acreage
remaining for harvest, is expected
to be slightly below average. Hay
carry-over is very small and
growth of range and pasture feed
has been retarded. However, cur
rent prospects are bright for hay
and forage production this season.
Based on May 1 condition, Mon
tana's winter wheat crop is fore
cast at 24,O73,000 bushels. This
would be $4,000 bushels below
production in 1949 and $4,000
bushels less than average output
for the 10 years, 1889 to 194S.
Acreage remaining for harvest
this year is estimated to be
1,267, 900, compared with 1,348,000
acres in 1949. Although survival
of winter wheat during the past
winter was better than a year
earlier, the 1,5O8,OOO acres seeded
last fall was 10 per cent less than
the 100000 acres seeded the
previous fall. The northern por-
ton of the winter wheat belt suf-
fered the greatest winter kill. Most
of the acreage so affected will
be reseeded to spring wheat and
other grains.
Rye production is estimated to
be 100000 bushels, SO per cent

impressed upon them. If they re-
quire moving or live targets, par

Wildfire spread of ringworm, a

occurs during the winter in herds
of young cattle crowded into damp,
poorly lighted barns. Scrubbing the
quarters with a solution of I've dis

important factors in safeguarding

Jewish Center To
Cease Use of Old
Temple on July 81

Use of the old Temple Beth
Israel at 122 E. Culver for ac-
tivities of the Jewish Community
Center will be abandoned after
July 81, it was announced this
week.
The decision was made at a
recent meeting of the Jewish Cen
ter Board. The old temple has
been in use since Nov, 1949, un-
der a special arrangement with
temple officials.
Executive Director Hirsh Kap-
Ian of the Jewish Community
Council explained the building
proved inadequate for further use
since youth h activities expanded
under the direction of M e e r
Baum. Attendance swelled from
1900 to $500 during the period
in which the structure hts been in
use.
Too Costly
"The necessity for uniting un-
der one roof, if possible, all rec
reational activities and the offices
of community agencies made the
further use of the old temple
premises impractical, since the fl
nancial arrangement was such as
to prove too costly for the amount
of use possible there" said Kap-
Ian.
The board adopted a resolution
expressing it's gratitude to Temple
Beth Israel for the loan of the
building.
