exploration, the Acc offered a
$4,000 bonus "for the discovery
of a new deposit and production
therefrom of the first 20 tons
of uranium ore or mechanically
produced concentrates assaying
20 per cent or more uranium
oxide"
But the commission says that
carnotite produced lin the Colo
RADIO plateau" does not qualify
for bonus consideration because
it is a long-known and not new
source.
Question: Does the Grants.
N. Mex. area fall within the Colo
RADIO plateau so that some one
there would be out of luck on a
bonus even if enough sufficiently
rich carnotite were found? No
one knows for certain.
The commission says that "the
limits of the Colorado plateau
have never been defined" and
that If any one applied for a
bonus, the Acc would depend
upon geological opinion" as to
whether the area concerned was
within the Colorado plateau.

The United States, Britain and

All Germans, even if they live

Western Allied officials in Ber-

ate climax to Russia's campaign
to scuttle Western Europe's re-
armament.
They admitted, however, that
without West German units in
any united European army, that
army would be doomed almost at
the outset of a war with Russia.
West German government officials

TRACK HOPEFULS PREPARE
FOR FIRST MEET

With the coming of warmer
weather, track and baseball candi-
dates have begun daily workouts
on the oval. The workouts have
consisted primarily of calisthenics
and conditioning practices, and
learning form in the various
events.
The coaches this year devised u
five star placement program, and
the five events in the program
were the 100 yard dash, $50 yard
run, shot put, broad jump, and
high jump. From these events, the
coaches placed the track hopefuls
into their various departments, in
which they showed their greatest
ability.
At the start of this week, the
men were singled out in the de-
partments for individual and group
instruction. Work has been done on
the hurdles, dashes, shorter dis
tance runs and the weights. The
first track meet will get under way
this weekend, with Laurel parti-
cipating in the Billings Public in

Is to 20 inches apart, depending on
variety.
Set the plants in the planting
hole or furrow at the same depth
as they were previously, and have
the roots we'll spread out and not
cramped in a small planting hole.
The dirt should be firmed so it
comes in contact with roots. Do
not cover the crown of the plant
with soil.
Particular attention should be
paid to weed control the first sea-
son. Cultivation should be shallow
but frequent and care must be
taken not to disturb the early set
ting runners. The first formed run
ner plants will be the ones most
likely to bear the most fruit the
next year. Fruit should not be per-
mitted to set the first year-it is
desirable that all flowers be picked
off at least for 60 to 80 days after
planting. If plants seem to lack
vigor in the early growing season,
side dressing of ammonium sui
phate will help when applied in
late June. If the planting seems to
be overcrowded and matted, re-
moval of some of the late formed
runner plants may be desirable.
Strawberries are shallow rooted
plants. Since they benefit from fire.
quent light irrigations, weekly ap-
plications of water may be neces-
sary on most soils. Twice weekly
applications of water may be used
to advantage during the production
season. The irrigation should not
be so heavy that it causes flooding
or washing of the soil.
Well maintained strawberry beds
can often produce good crops three
or four seasons. Because of the
weed problem, some grow only one
crop of berries and always have a
new bed coming along to provide

practice is handled as a three year
rotation. If the patch is kept more
than the second season, part of the
rows should be cultivated out to
eliminate some of the old plants
and some of the new in order to
give the remainder of the plants
enough room to develop and not
become matted too closely.
Mulching of plants in late fall
is recommended. Such practice
reduces winter loss of plants.
Leaving part of the mulch between
the rows serves to conserve mois-
ture and also keep the berries
cleaner.

Yard and Garden
By Leonard Yager,
Assistant Horticulturist


Montana Extension Service
Strawberries in the Home Garden
Strawberries are one of the most
successful small fruits that can be
grown in Montana. However, they
need to be planted on we'll drained
soils that are high in organic mat
ter. Sites free from late spring
frosts must be picked especially
for June-bearing varieties.
Some of the June bearing vari-
eties suggested are Dunlap, Dor
sett, Sparkle and Premier. Sioux is
a new variety developed in Ne
braska that is worthy of trial.
Gem, Evermore, Goth Century and
Streamliner are some of the better
everbearing kinds.
When selecting or purchasing
new plants for planting, see that
they are young runner plants with
soft, whitish, pliable roots. Dark
brown roots indicate age and
blackened roots indicate root rot
infection.
In preparing soil for straw
berries, plow in a generous amount
of well-rotted barnyard manure
plus 5 pounds of triple superphos-
phate per acre or it's equivalent in
other phosphate fertilizers in the
fall. Set the Strawberries early the
next spring as soon as the ground
can be worked satisfactorily.
Rows may be spaced 21a to 31a
feet apart, depending on equip
ment used for cultivation. The
plants in the row should be spaced
