Everybody Of importance this
side of the Iron Curtain even
tually turns up at an afternoon
gathering in Washington.
T. S. Eliot, the poets poet
and one of the greatest living
writer's, is here for a weeks
visit with Mr.. and Mrs. William
Castle at their beautiful S street
home. After a Today stay in
Cambridge, the noted Britisher
arrived here on Friday. When
he leaves Washington he will
have a week in New York before
returning to his home in Lon
don.
The first questions that
greeted the writer here, as
everywhere else, concerned his
current dramatic hit, 1.-THE
Cocktail Hour" What was the
meaning of the play? Whatever
the people in the audience
choose to get out Of it: it is
not up to the author to tell
them, was his reply. Who were
the three people who guided the
lives of others in the play sup
posed to represent? They didn't
represent anybody; they were
whatever they seemed to be to
each individual watching them.
DR.. Eliot is as non-committal
about his plays as if he were
announcing his candidacy for
a high Office.
Though surprised the strange
play made a hit, the slim brown
haired poet said. II consider
The Cocktail Party my best
effort to date. I am writing
another play now." he con-
tinued, "but I won't tell you
the name for if it is published
I won't be able to change it,"

Impressions of Gen. and Mrs.
Matthew RidgWay:-Of renown-
ed physical courage and soldierly
ability, Gen. Ridgway turns out
to be also a man of great
sensitivity. He manifested it
when he became choked up at
the close of his speech at the
press luncheon; he showed it by
his constant awareness of the
people and things about him. by
his understanding eyes that look
with interest at others rather
than inwardly at himself; by
his gentle considerate manner
and by his serious attitude to-
ward a serious business.
His wife Penny is a woman
of great poise, both mental and
physical. Her compoSure and
her immaculate appearance are.

characteristics upon first meet

The Millard E Tydings' don't
worry about the cost Of meat these
days. They raise their own.
The former Senator and his
pretty wife entertained at a lunch
con in honor of the Vice President
and Mrs. Barkley. The main course
was chicken. These broilers were
no marketing problem as they
came right off the Tydings' farm,
Darlington.
This noon day party was one of
three such events, the Tydings
have planned. One was on May IL
for Speaker Of the House., Sam
Rayburn, and a look to the future
will find the Tydings honoring the
hostess father and Stepmother,
former Ambassador and Mrs.
Joseph E. Davies. This fete will
take place on June 8.
Over An Hours Drive
There were 40 guests from con-
gressional and diplomatic society
at yesterdays luncheon and like
the previous one and the one to
come. the invites had over an
hours drive to get to their desti-
nation. which is near Havre de
Grace. Md.
This was one time when the
hosts could count on the guests of
honor being on time. They started
the day before. The Vice President
and Mrs. Barkley left Washing
ton about quarter to three Sat-
urday afternoon for the Maryland
trek since they were also weekend
guests.
Regardless Of the weather, those
lucky enough to receive bids were
surrounded with a profusion of
flowers. Mrs. Tydings is presently
the proud poSseSSor of a half an
acre of peonies in full bloom. They
are of all shades from white to
deep red. Another horticultural
spectacle is the 200-year-old box.
The vase upon vase of flowers
IN the lovely old house were all
arranged earlier by Mrs. Tydings.
The residence, which was a land
grant in 1859 is of field stone and
the first part of it was completed
about 1900.
On The Boy
The place boasts 600 acres over
looking Chesapeake Bay. To fur
ther Surmount the meat problem,
the main product of Darlington is
on the hoof. They raise Hereford
cattle.
Although daughter Eleanor Tyd-
1ngs was not there. son Joseph D.
Tydings, his grandfather's name
sake, was present. He expects toI
be called back into the service al
though he has already done one
military stint. Summer plans forI
the rest of the family-down onI
the farm, of course.
Other hosts yesterday that
wanted the weather man on their
side were the Costa Rican Am
baSsador and Sonora de Orea-
muno. They had a to 8 o'clock
cocktail party at the Embassy.
This gathering was unofficial
and included about 200 friends
from all the different groups of
society. A little different from the
usual spring parties, the guests
didn't have to exclaim over the
flowers in the garden-there
weren't any.
Rose Bushes PIonted
The hostess claims she has mol
green thumb but promises that
next year the situation will be diff
ferent. She has had some rose
bushes planted which should
bloom in the spring.
Senorita Diana Oreamuno was
there wearing a black taffeta street,
length dress. Some of the guests
were her young friends. The
hostess wore a royal blue shan
tung afternoon frock.

Chart Furnishes
Pipe Volumes
By w. F. SCHAPHoRST

EVERY ONCE in a while one
wants to know the volume of
given length Of pipe in gallons. This
writer does not know Of any table
that gives such values and where
volumes are to be found they are
usually given in cubic feet. Besides,
the range of a table is seldom great
enough to cover all desired condi-
tionS.
Here is a chart that takes care Of
all of the standard pipe sizes from Is
inch to is inches in column A, and
any length Of pipe line from OIL foot
to 100000 feet in column B. Column
c shows volumes from to 1000
gallons. The chart will therefore
take care of most conditions.
TO use the chart simply run a
straight line through the pipe size
Column AZ and the length of pipe
line in column B and the intersec-
ton with column G Immediately
gives the total number of gallons in
the pipe or pipe line.
For instance the dotted line drawn
across this chart shows that if the
pipe size is 21z inches Column Al
and the length Of line is 400 feet
Column b the volume of the pipe
Column G., is 100 gallons.
Vice versa if it is desired to know
the length Of the pipe line required
to hold a given number of gallons,
or the size Of pipe necessary to hold
a given number Of gallons within
certain limitations of length, the
chart may be conveniently applied.
In other words, if two factors in any
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-08-15

two Of the three columns are known,
the unknown in the third column can
be readily found.
In using charts of this type there
are number of good tricks to know
and here, for instance, is one of
them: To determine the volume Of
a X" pipe one foot long, the easiest
way is to run line through the r.,
column A, and the 10000 in column
B. The intersection with column G
says 160 gallons, but that, of course,
is for a pipe line 10000 #. long. BY
merely pointing off four places to
the left we have 0.016 gal. as the
volume of a II" pipe one foot long.

winter wheat in most sections of the
state this year, there may be re-
sulting tendency toward early VIM
ter wheat planting this fall. In most
areas of the state this would be a
mistake because of the disease factor.
The many hundreds of samples of
winter wheat from the field sent in
for the Identification of malgrowth
had a large number that showed
signs of root rot.
Delayed seeding until after Sept.
/ seems to be the only protective
measure available. Sept. Is seems to
be the most reliable seeding date, so
most growers, even those with very
large. acreages, can usually start
Sept. and complete seeding in
plenty of time.
Not an acre of winter wheat should
be seeded without first treating the
seed with one of the recommended
compounds. While it has always
been good practice, seed treatment
becomes more important as this state
becomes an older wheat producing
area. 1t isn't expensive and it doesn't
take much time, but it is vital in dis
ease prevention and should be used.
Legume Seed
Many growers will remember the
rather sad experience of 1851 in the
harvesting and marketing of their
seed crop. At present, there aren't
many signposts to go by in determine
ing what the situation will be this
fall. Neither have we any idea of
what kind of weather will greet us
at the time Of harvest.
It is a safe bet, however, that the
crop should be handled so as to get
the seed in the bag at the earliest
possible date and to get it cleaned
and processed in time to go on the
market well in advance of the plant
ing season in the consuming area In
general, it should be in tie consum-
ing area by Jan. 1.
This means that there must be
quite change in the procedure used
by many growers. There are many
factors that can develop to change
the seed situation from year to year,
but tineliness seems to be a definite
part of the new order of seed market
ing.
Feed is being baled, stacked and
piled all over Montana. Even with
this seasonal squirt it is nearly a GER
tainty that hay will be at a premium
before spring.
While some of the feed isn't the
best, still it would seem to be good
rule to put up every ounce that is
available. While it may not be the
best it will furnish bulk and may
save lot of livestock where some
concentrate is fed.

my friends whether do any good

Food Contamination
We hope every producer of wheat
in Montana is aware Of the Food and
Drug administration program to keep
wheat clean for human consumption.
This program is a far cry from the
old methods of handling wheat and,
unless taken seriously, may lead to
rather substantial losses.
The whole program revolves
around keeping wheat free from
adulterants from the field to the
table of the consumer. 1t is therefore
obvious that every handler from the
producer through the shipper and
professor has definite part to play
in its handling.
Inasmuch as present day methods
of handling and marketing permits
grain to be brought to town in a
short period of time, elevators, mills
railroads cannot handle the entire
crop as fast as it could be delivered.
To keep wheat clean on the farm,
then, will require adequate and tight
storage. Not so tight as to exclude
ventilation, but so constructed as to
prevent contamination from rats,
mice, birds, chickens as well as rain.
None of these types of contamina-
ton can be corrected fully by any
kind of cleaning operation and may
cause a lot of trouble.
What may happen has been pretty
clearly demonstrated in the rejection
for food and wheat that had been
treated with mercurial compounds
for disease prevention. While the
exact number of cars involved is moi
known, in two-week period there
were % cars of Montana wheat in.

or some of the grain may be usec

The results where grain is found
to be contaminated are so drastic
that every care should be taken al
the way along the line to preven
contamination of every kind.
