Five years ahead of schedule, the
Farmers Union Elevator Co. at Glas-
gov has become entirely free of
debt. The co-op's eighth annual
meeting, early this month, was high
lighted by the burning of the mort
gage which had been held by the Spo-
kane Bank for Co-operatives. The
mortgage represented a $4,000 loan
procured by the coop in 1914, to be
paid off by 1856.
7. C. Croll, assistant general man
ager of Farmers Union Grain Termi-
nal Association, was guest speaker.
Croll briefly outlined the growth of
GTA and said that the terminal CO.
operative has handled more than 900
million bushels of grain and at pres
ent has almost 20 million bushels in
terminal storage space. GTA OBJ
served it's thirteenth birthday June 1.

funds to fight your legislative bat
ties in Washington.
Croll also aimed blast at the Ma
tional Tax Equality Association
which, he declared "is not for tax
equality, but the complete and total
elimination of co-ops."

Brehm, last week, received a $4,000
fine and a suspended 5-to-1 5-month
prison term following conviction of
accepting "kickbacks" from an en-

MIDLAND COOP GROUP
HEARS Commissioner OF
AGRICULTURE ANDERSON

Commissioner of Agriculture AL
fred Anderson was the featured
speaker at the quarterly meeting of
Midland Coop Activities in Billings
last Friday night. Mr.. Anderson re-
viewed the growth of co-operatives in
Montana, the attacks currently being
made on farmer co-ops by 'tax equal
ity" groups, and the onslaught of the
power trust on public power devel-
opment in the halls of the Sind Con-
gress.
Max Mathews, Huntley, manager of
the Yellowstone County Electric
Coop, and member of the State Wat
er Conservation Board, presided at
the meeting. E. R. Hardy" Kinder,
head of the Farmers Union Central
Exchange Branch in Billings, was
elected secretary-treasurer of the
organization, succeeding R. J. Thorn

Former coop board member, anC
a pioneer in bringing rural electric
ity to the Beaverhead. G. E. Blinn
acted as POSTMASTER, according to the
Dillon Examiner. Mr.. Blinn explain
ed the meaning of the advance pay
ments and introduced many of the
founders and original members of
the coop who were present and who
had helped bring electric power to
many farm homes and communities
in that part of Montana.
Mr.. Smith, in accepting the check
for REA, reports the Examiner, paid
tribute to the ability of ranchers in
handling their own (tax-paying)
private utility, citing what great re-
suits a small group can achieve with
good management and support from
members. He outlined the new STAN
dard voltage, increasing capacity
from 12,400 volts to 24,80O volts,
and providing four times as much
power over lines as previously.
Smith also stated that of the ST.
300, 100000 loaned to electric co-ops
by REA only one-quarter of one per
cent is more than 60 days delinquent,
and that most of this amount will be
paid up in the future, proving the
capability of rural people in man
aging their own utility.
In presenting the check, the Exam
iner report continues, Secretary
Treasurer Wheat cited the fact that
the amount of $4,000 originally pro-
vided so miles of line and service to
129 members.

They Don't Even Earn Coffee
Money!

The big food corporations can't

coffee these days. A Costa Rican

City early this month, reported that
workers on coffee plantations get
only 10 to II cents day.

sion decided to construct new uran-
ium processing plant on the Ohio
river" The plant would require an
enormous amount of electric power
one million kilowatts.
The commission asked for bids for
American Gas & Electric. and from
the public-owned Tennessee Valley
Authority.
COMPANY HELD BACK
The private company refused to
bid, though Uncle Sam sorely need
ed the power for national defense.
The IVA offered the extremely low
rate of 3.53 mills per kilowatt hour.
Seeing the IVA would get the
business if they continued "stalling"
in hope of holding Uncle Sam for a
high price, five private utility COM
panies Charged in, formed new
corporation, and it offered to furn-
ish the power for 3.57 mills per XVIII
only little higher than the iva
bid.
The final result was that the atom
ic commission will get half the power
from IVA and the other half from
the new private company.
SAVED $50 MILLION A YEAR
"But", says King, suppose there
had been no IVA yardstick? In that
case, the atomic commission would
have been at the mercy of private
companies, and would have been COM
PEELED to pay at least mills per XVIII
for this service.
"a little figuring, therefore, in
dicates that, because of IVA this
one Atomic Energy Commission
plant is saving about $50 million
a year." That's enough to pay
for this government plant in just
three years.
The House cut out Sc million for
a 120-mile government cite line' be-
tween Klamath Falls in Southern
Oregon and the Central Valley prof.
ect in Oregon. This line, King says,
would earn $1.5 million a year, and
thus soon pay for itself. There's no
economy in killing it. and lack of
it will Cripple the Northwest,
which is suffering from shortage
of electric power.

Ditch bank erosion can be prevented
by using giant siphon tubes made of
metal or Of rubber such as the one
shown here.
nary wooden head-gate which can
be made up during the winter in
the farm shop is low cost and will
serve this purpose well. Plans can
be found in bulletin No. 40 de-
scribed before. Wooden, steel or
concrete headgates can be used for
ditch turn outs and border dixie
turn outs. Large syphon tubes A to
6 inches in diameter can also be
used for turn outs to serve border
bikes and border bitches.
Siphon Tubes
From the standpoint of conserva-
ton, syphon tubes have an advan-
tage in that they are movable and
thus it is practical to have number
of them which will break the stream
of water up into several points of
diversion. For row and corrugation
irrigation, syphon tubes of smaller
sizes can be used.
The head ditch can be eliminated
by using gated pipe on top Of the
ground. The pipe is equipped with
small slide gates which will regu-
late the flow into each furrow. This
pipe has an advantage in running
water down a steep grade to supply
rows running on the approximate
contour.
To practice conservation in irri-
cation, it is necessary to have good
control of the water at all times.
This means properly laid out bitches,
and bikes equipped with the neces-
sary control structures. It also
means getting the land itself in
shape to irrigate by leveling before
the ditch system is installed.

without control structures causes ditch

photos).
break occurs, then, it will not double
the size of stream in the next row
and no harm will result.
Point number three, turning too
much water out at one point, can
be prevented by simply breaking
up the stream into several turn
outs. Contour bitches help consider
ably in this respect since the water
can be turned out at several points
above each canvas dam. Where bor-
der bikes are used, increasing the
number of turnouts between dikes
will cut down erosion.
Excessive Water
The difficulty of water running
too long in one place has many
causes. 1t may be due to negligence,
excessive length of run, uneven
ground surface, improper method of
irrigation, or other situations, The
soil loss from this practice may be
largely that of washing out and
teaching of soil fertility. It might
also be contributing to a seepage
problem on other fields in the Yicin-
ity. It is a serious one because it
also wastes water and labor. :.
The solution depends on the cause.
If it is due to uneven ground, land
leveling or revision of the irrigation
system may be in order. If it is lack
of knowledge as to when the soil
has enough water, the use of small
steel probe or a soil moisture meter
will help.
The fifth point, erosion of the ditch
bank where the bank is cut, may be
solved by using some type of turn
out structure. There are many de-
vices that will do this job. heordi-

100 PER CENT AMERICANISM

What is 100 per cent Ameri-
canism'? Not, what do some of
its self-appointed and strident
opponents think it is. But what
ought it be?
Certainly it implies a sense of
national needs above attachment
to party, a comprehension of ma
tional welfare rather than eager
ness for partisan advantage. 1t
denotes also an adherence for
the shoddy currency of ''practi-
cal politics IT h e vote-buying
sops to special interest groups,
the parading of influence" by
henchmen, the ward-level, dis
sembling reaction to att a k S
rather than the fortnight re-
Spouse on the statesman's plane.

Truman carried with him a
heavy liability when he addressed

standards of political leadership

But there is much more to the
definition of 100 per cent Am
ericanism. And we say to our
sorrow that the larger veterans
