The method used was a front
page editorial which ap-
peared in the paper the week be-
fore the state primary election. DR..
Johnson, staunch supporter Of
Judge Carlos Spaht, charged that
the author of the editorial, and who
recently took over the paper, used
his paper to incite racial hatred.
DR.. Johnson said that the trick
failed.
What happened was that DR..
Johnson dashed out against certain
injustices and abuses of Negroes at
political meeting, but talked in
general terms.
He said that the paper misquoted
him and twisted the facts and dis
torted the quotations from his
speech which destroyed the whole
meaning or what he SAID. lie stated
that he considered the views of
the editor as bordering along the
lines of a "Dixiecrat."
Several Radio broadcasts by him
clarified what was said at the
political meeting and several thous-
ands of handbills were put in prac-
tically every home of every white
person here in reputation of what
was printed in the local weekly.
He told reporters that he was
constantly being visited by Chief of
Police Stephens who was doing all
that he could to protect him.

"The opposition during the cam

large majority and 2410 Negroes

Beet Officials
Study Price

OFFICIALS OF beet grower as
sociations in eight western States
while agreeing that current sugar
prices are LOO low to maintain the
industry adequately, were told this
month that considerably lower
prices" are in the offing for 1858.
DR.. Phillip E. Jones, USDA,
speaking at the annual meeting Of
the National Beet Growers fedora
ton al Billings Dec. "a, said large
Cuban and Puerto Rican carryover
supplies plus international develop
ments are factors influencing his
forecast for lower sugar prices next
year. He also told growers that the
USDA sugar branch can not solve
the industry's problem Of low
prices, though it can influence it's
solution.
Ishmae1 Yost, Billings, was named
to the executive committee of the
federation at the close of the meet
ing, and Anvil Millar of Shelley,
Ida, became the new chairman,
succeeding A. E. Olson, Torrington,
Wyo. John Bowen, Burley, Ida, was
elected vice chairman and Richard
w. Blake, Greeley, Colo, was reap
pointed executive secretary.
About 100 delegates attended the
meeting to submit information for
use by the agriculture secretary in
determining eligibility of beetgrow-
ers for government subsidies under
the sugar control program.

last report was made. With an
alfalfa seed crop reported in the
United States this year of 147,000,-
600 pounds, about 30,000,000 higher
than the normal consumption, it
doesn't appear that demand will be
brisk for much of the Montana crop.
Demand for planting may be high
next spring, but it seems hardly
likely that such a demand would be
able to absorb the surplus that is
in the picture at the present time.
Some of the better lots of seed
that have been processed and are
ready for sale, will be sold, but the
volume will not be great. 1t would
appear, now, that much of the seed
harvested in the state this year will
be placed under the loan program
or purchase agreement and stored
on the farm.
1t is always a tough break to have
a depressed price condition, though
it generally happens when big
crop has been harvested, but to have
slow buyers market is even worse.
1t isn't often that all seed producing
sections of the U. S. come through
with big crop as apparently they
did this year.
Crested Wheatgrass
This was another year when ideal
moisture conditions for the produc-
ton of crested wheatgrass hay were
present in the spring, but continued
dry weather later did not give the
crop an opportunity to develop as
it normally should. The amount OF
crested wheatgrass was reduced and
the seed crop harvested was well
below the normal poundage.
With the dry conditions existing
in the eastern part of the state this
fall, we would normally expect a
small crested wheatgrass crop in
1858. However, where there are
young paintings or where the older
fields have been titled to keep the
stand thin, it is possible that early

Soils and Crops
Winter Wheat, Alfalfa Seed
Situations In Question
By RALPH MERCER

HERE WE GO again for the last
issue of the year for this column in
Montana Farmer-Stockman.
I have mentioned many times be-
fore, but it bears repeating, that
have an opportunity to visit with
more producers in Montana during
a years time through the medium of
this column than any other way.
Evidence that you read this column
comes both from letters / receive
and from mention made while am
visiting with you of something that
has appeared in it. This is crafty
ing indeed and helps to keep me
plugging away trying to bring you
information once month.
Maybe, in this last issue of 1852,
it might be well to review a few
things.
Winter Wheat
There is a great deal of specula-
ton among growers as to just what
the winter wheat situation will be
next spring. It's as lively question
as you would want to try to ana
lyze, but no one can tell until
around May 1, 1853.
While the situation is bad and
there could be a heavy abandon
ment of acres, still there are many
unknowns that sometimes work in
favor of a crop. 1t would be well
to wait as long as possible if there
are indications of continuing growth.
In some areas, the seed never
did sprout, or, if it did, it never
come up above the surface of the
ground. This is not good, yet we
have gone into the winter with
tough conditions before and have
come out fairly well. The biggest
danger lies in the fact that wheat
dries out more often than it kills
out. For that reason we may ex-
pect a rather high abandonment
next spring.
The alfalfa seed situation in the
state has not improved since the
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1952-12-15

spring moisture might make fair
Iy good crop. But this is another
place where there is a question
mark.
Treating Grain
There was time in this state
when treatment of grain before
planting was confined to the con-
troll of bunt or shrinking smut. But
now, with the large number Of
fungus disease of cereal grains that
have been cropping up, particularly
in the Seeding stage, it is almost
mandatory that spring grain be
treated with one of the mercurial
compounds.
Treating grain before it is plant
ed is one of the cheapest forms Of
insurance and should be an annual
procedure. In the last 10 years many
producers have found out too late
that they would have been a lot
better off if they had treated their
DIlOI W SScuAlSs
Grain Contamination
Recently, reports have been re-
ceived of grain seizures because Of
bird and animal contamination.
Here, again, farm storage that is
adequate to protect the stored grain
from contamination is one of the
best pieces of insurance a producer
can have.
When grain is once contaminated
there is no known method of elimi-
mating this contamination; and,
when a carload of grain is seized
in the terminal, it is either con-
demned and destroyed or sold as
livestock feed. However, some Of
the contaminants which makes
grain unfit for human consumption
also make it unfit for livestock feed.
AS rodents are among the chief
causes of food contamination, it is
best to start out on a program OF
sanitation, doing all that can be
done to clean up around the storage
bins and to make them rodent proof
If necessary, put on a poison pro-
gram.
In the matter of food contamina-
ton, prevention should be the
watchword, as there apparently is
no cure.

his hair. TIE girl was singing, too
her voice rose above the others,
sweet and clear. He put his hands
over his ears. Why had she come,
prodding the sore places he had
hoped were healed!
Finally they stopped. He could feel
himself relaxing, as though a tightly
wound spring inside him were slowly
releasing itself. She was going home
the chauffeur was gathering up
the boxes and tissue paper, and the
boys were all shouting goodbye and
Merry Christmas.
SHE HAD almost reached the
door when the doctor stopped her.
They were discussing him-he knew
by the way the doctor kept glancing
in his direction. When he saw them
walking towards him, the four walls
of the room seemed to close around
him like the sides of a trap.
She nodded graciously as someone
handed her another gaily wrapped
package. Sure, she'd take time to

bother. He didn't want her Christ

thing but to be left alone.
AS they neared his bed he closed
his eyes, hands clenched tight upon
the drab blanket. She couldn't talk
to him if he pretended to be asleep!
"HeIlo, Bill"
She was standing close to the bed
now-he could tell by the fragrance
of her perfume. She had put the box
beside him, and apparently she
didn't care whether he was asleep or
not, for she went on talking.
''Do you like the tree?" she asked.
Still he didn't answer. In a minute
she would give up and go away, he
told himself desperately.
"I'M so SORRY you missed ali

He had seen such radiance befor

No sound came from his lip
though he tried his best to speal
