Baby Swallows Pin, Flown Here

A 9-months-old infant, Lydia Karlsen, of Sanak island, was flown to Kodiak Sunday after it was reported by radio that she had swallowed an open safety pin.
 The Coast Guard assistance flight was made by It. Comdr. E. A. Crock, pilot, and LTJG G. W. Wagner, co-pilot, who made the trip from Kodiak westward to Sanak in 3 and a half hours. The plane landed in Pavlof harbor and picked up the mother, Mrs. Mary Karlsen, 19, and infant, and brought them to the NOE dis pensary.
 The Navy then flew the child to Anchorage, where equipment was available for removing the pin, which was lodged in the throat.
 The child was reportedly in good condition after the re- moval.

meath a tree makes heat rash
break out over me. I've also got
some hay to NOW, and some's been
down a day or so; but though the
former gets too tough, and while
the 1atter's cured enough, you'll
never catch me pitching hay while
sun is beating down this way. I'd
rather sacrifice some wealth than
work today and spoil my health.
In fact, think I'll change my
plan next year and hire another
man to help Mirandy grow more
grain; and then, to get rid of the
pain of making hay and doing
chores, which any man with sense
abhors, I'll sell off ev'ry head of
stock, including my wife's chicken
flock. That way, as soon as har-
vests DER, I'll sell my grain and
lock the door and head for some
palm-shaded land to spend the
winter on the sand. Of course, the
farm may run down some, and
neighbours sure to call me dumb;
but for awhile the farm will pay,
SO why not live the easy way?

terial cannot cling. Secondly, the
single thickness of steel has no in
sulating value. 1t may freeze sooner,
but the first warm sun or breeze will
likewise melt the frost from the
inside walls.
If the proper care is taken while
feeding, there should be no freezing
problem. The important point to re-
member is, the top of the silage
should assume the contour of an
overturned pie pan. One should keep
the silage level with trench dug
down all around the wall. A little
extra effort to maintain this shape
will pay off. The reason. that a
trench around the wall eliminates
frozen silage is that as air gets to
silage it starts to decompose. AS it
decomposes, it creates heat, thus if
the trench is maintained the. silage
will decompose enough each day in
trench to keep itself thawed out as
fast as one feeds it down.

OUR GREEN ALFALFA was a lit
tie on the coarse order when it was
put in the silo. This made moisture
content rather low for grass silage. I
added little molasses as filling pro-
crossed, about 35 pounds per ton,
good deal less than the 80 pounds
recommended, because less was
needed for more mature hay, for as
moisture lessons, the proportion of
carbohydrates increases.
My silage is of excellent quality
with no Objectionable odor, as is
often the case with grass silage put
up without any preservative being
added. The cows are eating with
good appetite and doing quite well
and have shown little variation in
milk flow due to weather.
What About Freezing?
The one question asked by every
one about my steel silo has been,
how about freezing? Freezing does
not damage silage provided it is not
allowed to spoil before being fed
after thawing. I have seen little
written in midwestern publications
about freezing previous to 1949. How
ever, this past summer, fall and win
ter nearly every article dealing with
grass silage has stressed the point
of proper handling to eliminate freez-
ing troubles in upright silos.
I believe the steel silo is head and
shoulders above either wood, con-
crete or masonry for two reasons:
First, steel has a hard, smooth sur
face to which frost and frozen ma

Here again insecticida1 treatment
can be secondary to good sanitation
practices and other standard meas
ures such as screen doors, and screens
on windows. We have recently heard
a great deal about strains of flies
in various areas becoming resistant
to DOT. This has occurred primarily
in areas of fairly heavy population
concentration and where DOT has
been used extensively over a period
of several years.
AS yet there is no known case in
Montana of flies being resistant to
DOT. However, this can happen and
we should all be watching for it.
Unless resistance is indicated by in
effective kills, percent DOT
spray will probably prove to be more
satisfactory for housefly control
Where there are DOT resistant flies,
either 5 percent chlordane or 5 per-
cent toxaphene sprays should prove
to be effective.

Control Thistle
By K. L. WARDEN
Weed Control Specialist

CANADA THISTLE is one of the
most widespread of the perennial
weeds occurring in the state, since it
is found in almost all Montana coun-
ties. Though primarily a cropland
weed it has shown that it is capa-
BILE of infesting grasslands in the
western part of the state. It also
occurs along stream-beds and bar
row-pits in many other areas where
there is a little additional moisture
for its growth.
Canada thistle can usually be con-
trolled by one years tillage in the
lower elevations in the state. Eradi-
cation in one year is usually not ac-
complished in the Bozeman area,
which has an elevation of about
1850 feet. 1t is believed that the
longer growing season generally as
ISOLATED with elevations below $500
feet would permit eradication in
one year.
Soil Sferilanfs
Canada thistle is quite readily
controlled by soil sterilants such as
sodium chlorate and borax or COM
binations of the two. The use of
soil sterilants is recommended for
small areas but will be very expen-

Fly Season Is Here
BY J. P. CoRKINS, assistant State EntOmologist

IN MONTANA WE ARE usually
concerned with three general groups
of flies: 1. The houseflies, which
feed largely on animal excrements
and breed in manure. 2. The horn
flies, which feed on the blood of cat
tie and lay their eggs on fresh cow
manure. Horn flies usually occur in
swarms on the backs of cattle. 3.
The stable flies, which also feed on
the blood of cattle and other animals
and lay their eggs on fermenting
plant refuse such as wet straw and
weed piles, or strawy manure piles.
Fly Control on Dairy Cattle
The use of DOT, chlordane, toxa-
phene and benzene hexachloride on
dairy cattle or around places where
milk is being handled has been
banned. The primary reason for this
is that these insecticides have
habit of showing up in the milk
II W1lClt QStso olOQilO OcllIO VI dlONl11A
dairy cattle.
Consequently, it is necessary to
substitute insecticides which do not
present this hazard. For spraying
dairy cattle a II of l perc n
methoxychlor spray or pyrenone
spray diluted as recommended by
the manufacturer will usually prove
to be satisfactory. About one to two
quarts per animal will be needed
for each spraying.
The spraying should be repeated
as often as is needed and in most
cases, the methoxychlor spray will
kill flies effectively over longer
period than will the pyrenone spray.
On the other hand, the pyrenone
spray will probably do much better
job of controlling the stable fly
group.
Control in Dairy Barns
For spraying the inside of dairy
barns and milk houses, lindane viii
probably prove to be more salts
factory. This should be applied SO a
to wet all treated surfaces thorough
ly to the point of run-off. The SAM
care should be used in applying
lindane as necessary as with othe
insecticides.

Citizens Committee Organized to
Sponsor School Levy Renewal Vote

Organization of a Citizens Com
mittee to sponsor a campaign for re-
newal of five-mill Bluffton school
levy was completed during the last
week, with active work under way in
publicizing the need for continua-
tion of financing school operations on
the same level as in the past.
The proposed renewal is not an in
crease in the school tax rate, the
committee pointed out this week, and
a continuation of the levy is neces-
sary to pay current operating ex-
penses of the school district.
Speakers representing the COM
mittee will appear at meetings of
organizations during the next month,
preceding the Nov. Z general election,
with the first appearance set for next
Monday nights P. T. A. meeting, at
which Rev. V. c. Oppermann, presi-
dent of the Board of Education, will
explain the need for continuation of
the levy.
Literature on the levy will be mail
ed to school district residents under
the direction of Mrs. Harry Yoder,
secretary-treasurer of the citizens
sponsoring group.

Gypsum Lath, Cement, Hardwood
Flooring have been short supply dur
ing recent weeks but most materials
are being produced at record rates
and the supply promises to catch up
with demand in short time," Mr..
Steinman said.
Although the new Federal credit
restrictions may cut down housing
construction, it is generally believed
that the number of new homes built
may still run as high as 100000 or
more, depending on the effect of de-
fense needs for materials.
'In general, so far as the materials
supply is concerned, families planning
to build or modernize home will be
able to do so.
From all indications there also
will be large amount of farm and
commercial construction, because far
mers' income is expected to be high
and many merchants have not yet
gotten around to undermining their
stores. No credit restrictions have
been placed on either farm or COM
mercial construction.
Unless the defense production pro-
gram is stepped up beyond the pres

ly large amount of steel, copper, and

LONDON, Dec. 28.-Mrs. Wal
ter S. Clifford, wife of the new
American Ambassador to Britain,
created a diplomatic precedent of
sorts yesterday by holding a full
dress news conference.
Normally the wives of ambas-
sadors prefer to be seen and not
heard in this city. where diplo-
macy is a delicate and highly re-
sponsible occupation.
But the new Ambassadors wife
is big news to the British press,
and so many reporters had sought
to meet her that she decided to
meet the whole group at once.
In the drawing room of her
new home in Princes Gate, she
welcomed photographers and
stood up to questioning by 35
newspapermen and women.
MY name is Augustine and let's
have no more confusion about
that" she said. 81 am not very
interesting. I was born and reared
in New York. I am the Ambassa-
doris second wife and. between us,
we have 10 grandchildren.
There was a little maneuvering
about her age. She explained
that in the United States a wom-
an usually isn't asked about it di-
rectly, but diplomatic questioner
asks what year she was graduated
from college and then makes his
own calculation.
A British woman reporter held
out for straight answer and Mrs.
Clifford finally said: Il am S."
London has been intrigued by
the variety of Ambassador Gif-.
ford's hats.
Mrs. Clifford said she does not
choose them, that she does not ad-
wise him on buying of clothes and,
for herself. prefers clothing of the
utmost simplicity.
For the conference she wore
simple afternoon gown with but
ton-through front. a single string
