Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1951-02-01

SINCE SOME MONTANA farmers may
be forced to plant frosted wheat next
spring, David J. Davis, superintendent of
the Montana grain inspection laboratory,
suggests that all such seed be given a ger
mination test shortly before planting.
No terminating research with frosted
wheat has been done here for some time,
Davis explains. However, the results OBJ
tanned in earlier trials are probably accurate
today.
These trials showed that the earlier the
frost hit the wheat, the poorer the germina-
ton This is because green wheat has more
moisture and suffers more damage. Wheat
that was frosted just before harvest was
damaged very little
Time of Test Important
Another point is that frosted wheat will
show a greater percentage of termination
month after harvest than Immediately after
harvest. But year after harvest the ger
n1ination will be low again, indicating that
the seed loses its termination with time
The only way to know whether spring
wheat will grow is to run termination tests
about TWO WEEKS BEFORE SEEDING
TIME Davis says. He suggests that farm
ers do this themselves in their home, using
the following easy method.
Dampen two or three thicknesses of or
binary paper kitchen towels. Place 100 ker-
nels of the spring wheat on these towels.
Then put two or three th1ckneSSes OF paper
towels over the top of the kernels. Keep as
close to 70 degrees as possible.
Keep Seeds Moist. Warm
1t also is a good idea to put moist muslin
over the top of the towels. Keep towels and
muslin thoroughly moistened throughout
the test. The sprouts should be large enough
to count in seven days.
Davis suggests making the termination
test in the home because the grain labora-
tory here already is flooded with germina-
ton test requests

| At this distance it's not easy
to diagnose your problem, Lenore.
but ! think that you and thou
sands of other girls can profit by
an investigation made by Psychol-
ogist H. K. Moore. He asked
dozens Of young men to think
about the girls they had gone
with and tell why they had
dropped the girls instead Of going
ahead to the altar. What were
the sins these girls committed
that led them TO be discarded?
"Sin No. l." says DR.. Moore, In
Family Life," the bulletin Of the
American Institute Of Family Re-
lationS, els for the girl to become
serious too soon or show affection
for the man before he speaks Of
it to her. Men do not usually
want girls to take the lead in
coWtship or to make the ad-
vances."

warned girls against being over

find that the young men in this

Modern Marriage
Girls Should Never Take Lead
In Courtship Nor in Dating

please inclose q stamped, SELF
addressed envelope.
1.-THE second reason for dropping
girls mentioned by men was bad
character and character traits, u
DR.. Moore continued.
'Male habits revealed by the
Kinsey report might lead one to
think that men do not prize vir-
ginity. But good character and
reputation are important. Men
tell other men when a girl lets
them go the limit Strange that
some girls still don't understand
this fact.
"The third reason for dropping
women is manners and conduct
Various crudities showing lack OF
good breeding were mentioned.
Nervous mannerisms were listed
by several" One man explained,
"I dropped this girl because she
giggled too much. 1t was very
Irritating in public" Another
dropped . girl because she con-
stantly talked about her other
men friends and what they did on
dates. One stopped going with q
girl who was too timid or bashful
to carry on q conversation.
Another girl liked to create a
scene. Others were too possessive,
or jealous, or set in their ways, or
disagreeable.
Two-timing is another thing
that irritates men. especially when
they are going steady and show
some signs Of being serious. A
girl may also be dropped because
the man discovers she comes from
an unsatisfactory family back
ground. Last-"and perhaps most
tragic"-as DR.. Moore says, "is
the woman'S choice of a poor
prospect" She went with men
on whom she should never have
wasted her time In the first place.
There you are, Lenore. Those
are some Of the reasons men give
for dropping girls who don't want
to be dropped. Do you belong in
any one Of those groups?

IWonnen,s Clubs:
Miss Perkins Hits Hat Rurnor
AT Postnnusters' Ladies' Fete

Although some Of the guests
couldn't see such notables ut the
head table as Mrs. Alben w. Bark
ley. wife Of the Vice President,
and Mrs. Jesse M. Donaldson, wife
of the Postmaster General, micro
phones carried the speeches and
fashion show commentary out into
the corridors. And the fashion
models. showing the latest In fall
and winter apparel, circled the
entire corridor after they left the
runway down the center OF the
banquet rooms.
Miss Perkins pointed out there
are now 1888 women postmasters
in the country and two Of them
were at the head table yesterday
Mrs. Dorothy 8. Weaver and MRS.
Mansell Orchard. both vice presi-
dents of the National Association
of PostmaSters.
Mrs. Roy M. North, wife Of the
District Postmaster who 10 host
to the convention, and Mrs. Ber.
nard r. Dickman, wife Of the as
Sociation president. also were at
the head table.
In addition TO Mrs. Donaldson,
the Post Office was represented by
Mrs. Vincent c. Burke, wife Of the
Deputy Postmaster General; Mrs.
Clifton c. Garner. wife Of the
Chief Post Office inspector, and
Mrs. Joseph j. LAwler, Mrs.
John M. Redding and Mrs. Os-
borne A. Pearson, wives Of Assist
ant Postmasters General. Still
others were Mrs. Robert M. Rams
peck, wife Of the chairman Of the

Sally Kirkland, fashion editor OF

Iture, and Mrs. Theodore Ives Mes
|senger, fashion co-ordinator Of
Garfinckel's. who acted as COM
mentator.
Mrs. Hazel Markell Of the Mu-
tual Broadcasting System was the
mistress Of ceremonies.
In a serious vein, Miss Perkins
paid tribute to postmasters for
the role they have played in their
respective communities since the
early days of the country. Tradi-
tionally. she said, they have been
men and women of distinction and
leaders who have set standards OF
behavior. culture and propriety.
Nor have their responsibilities de-
creased, she declared. To-day.
when educators have abandoned
the idea they have a duty to edu-
cate anything but the mind. peo-
pie like postmasters have more OF
a responsibility than ever to in-
fiuence the community 90 It win
move forward to an era Of en-.
lightenment," she said.

Miss Frances Perkins stoutly
denied what she described as a
"canard" widely circulated since
she has been an official in Wash
ington as she attended here first
fashion show yesterday.
II don't have my hats made at
the Bureau of Standards" the
former Secretary Of Labor who is
nov q member Of the Civil Serv-
lice Commission, afnrmed. '"They
may look like it, even though ]
buy them out Of the best mail
order catalogues. But that is one
canard I want to deny. I may
never have another opportunity" !"
Wearing y small, black tricorn-
shaped Chapeau--a style she has
chosen consistently since she came
TO Washington as a member Of
the cabinet--Miss Perkins drew
one laugh after another in a
luncheon address before the wo-

gates who are attending the con-

She confessed in the beginning
that it was the first time she
had ever attended a fashion show.
But this only proved. she pointed
out, the validity Of the saying that
liz you stay in public life long
enough, every experience will come
to you.
The ladies luncheon, held at
the Hotel Statler. also set an
Iother record yesterday. It was the
largest group ever served by the

I do not know why women are
so conscious of age. I know that
people often think I am putting
on an act when they ask me how
old am, which they seldom do.
I have to stop and think a minute
before I know.
Perhaps you are 40, that So
called fatal age when everything
is supposed to change. or maybe
you are so. So what? What does
it matter how old you are?
The important thing is how
happy you are, how much fun you
are having out of life, how good
looking you are, how well. sin
cerely believe that about half of
aging is thinking yourself into
it. The psychologists and doc
tors do not yet know what magic
powers feeling youthful and for
getting age may have over actual
physical aging.
Although the middle-aged wom-
an in our country seems to me to
be one of the most attractive ones
in the world, she has so felt the
pressure of remaining youthful in
appearance that she may have
forgotten some of those simple
traits which charm at any age.
Any woman who has lived in
awareness and observed acutely
must be more tolerant and kinder
as she grows older. This does
not come from the deterioration
of age, but from more understand
ing and wisdom.
She must be an expert on good
taste when it comes to clothes,
food, conservation and real values.
Her horizons should be broader
than her hips and her sense of
humor delightful because it will
be enriched by experience and
kindness and the art of the light
touch. And women should be
tender. A woman who lacks ten
