Safeguarding Water Development

only such use as does not conflict with any
beneficial consumptive use, present or fa-
ture, in states lying wholly or partly west
of the 98th meridian of such waters for
domestic, municipal stock water, irrigation,
or industrial purposes"
But the 10Th congress authorized the
army engineers to construct and maintain
9-foot navigation channel in the Missouri
from Sioux City to the mouth of the river.
The engineers are vigorously pushing this
program whose fulfillnent would almost
certainly interfere with future use of water
in the states specified in the OHGahoney-
Milliken amendment.
Since these enactments appear to be in
conflict with each other the adequate future
use of waters by the states where the streams
originate would seem to be far from secure
The headwater states have no wish to
adopt a dog-in-the-manger attitude But
they have every right to safeguard these
valuable water resources for primary use
within their borders.

MYTH competition for available water
w supplies in the western region increas-
ing every year, supporters of irrigation de-
velopment in the headwater states like Mon
tana and Wyoming must maintain unceasing
vigilance in protecting rights to future rum
off. Distant states and metropolitan areas
have plans of their own for use of water
from the streams that originate here. One
of the most water-consumin of such prof.
ects is for river navigation.
It was to guard against the establishment
Of conflicting rights to water that should be
available for western irrigation development
and other purposes that western congress
men supported the O,Mahoney-M illiken
amendment to the flood control act. This
amendment which was enacted in 1915 by
the 18th congress reads as follows:
''The use for navigation, in connection
with the operation and maintenance of such
works herein authorized for construction,
Of waters arising in states lying wholly or
partly west of the 98th meridian shall be

Debunking ''Organic'' Farming

But the self-styled "organic farmers"
appear to be taking the position that humus
content is all any soil needs. They attack
the use of chemical fertilizers in any form
and even go so far as to claim that such
materials poison the soil, kill such beneficial
organisms as earthworms, make crops sus-
ceptible to insects and diseases of all kinds,
and injure the health of animals and humans
that eat crops SO fertilized Generally speak
ing. the reverse is true.
Most farmers who use commercial fer
tilizers do so because they have found that
humus alone is not enough for profitable
crop production. Or they can maintain the
fertility of their soils more economically
through the use of chemical fertilizer than
by attempting to add enough manure and
other organic materials to maintain the
mineral content.
There is no scientific evidence that chem
ically fortified plants are less nutritious
than those not so treated. In fact the evil
dence points quite conclusively to the fact
that plants grown on soil in which some
mineral deficiency has been overcome

The value of organic matter in the soil
has long been recognized by farmers as well
as by scientists. It is essential to the normal
development Of soil organisms which in turn
aid greatly in changing food elements into
forms that are available to plants. Humus
is also a great soil conditioner giving the
soil, among other qualities, the ability to
absorb moisture and resist wind erosion.

Foot and Mouth Disease

vent the disease from breaking into the
state A proclamation prohibiting ''the i'm
portation from the Dominion of Canada and
its provinces Of any and all livestock, ami
mails of all descriptions, articles and. COM
modities likely to convey such foot and
mouth disease" was issued on March 8 by
Governor Bonner. This embargo is being
rigidly enforced and an airplane patrol is
being conducted along the border to spot
any livestock that might otherwise stray
across the Montana line.
Montana Farmer Stockman is presenting
information in this issue that will be helpful
to farmers and stockmen in guarding against
infection and in reporting any suspicious
disease conditions that might appear.

through the use of commercial fertilizer
are more nutritious.
If proper use of chemical fertilizer
poisoned" the soil yields Of the crops grown
upon it would soon suffer. But at the famous
Rothamsted experiment station in England
there is wheat experiment that has been
conducted for considerably more than 100
years. One plot has received nothing but
manure at the rate of IA tons per acre
annually. The other has received nothing
except chemical fertilizer. Average yields Of
both plots have been practically the same
in spite of the unusually heavy application
of manure
The Rothamsted tests have also shown
that there are just as many earthworms in
the chemically treated soil as in that
treated with manure but those in the fer
tilted plots are actually larger and stronger.
And here in Montana farmers know that
some soils will not produce profitably unless
treated with phosphate fertilizer. And that
animals feeding on such crops are far
thriftier when the soil is improved in that
way.
There are countless other examples that
disprove the destructive claims of the Tor
ganie farmers"

Blood Pyesswe.2

Blood PYeSS1IYe2
AS EVERYONE knows, the United
States Public Health service points
out, the heart pumps blood through
the body. The arteries-large and
small-which carry the blood away
from the heart are strong, elastic
tubes. As blood is pumped into the
arteries, it presses against their in
ner walls. This causes a certain
amount of pressure, the way air
presses against the inner walls of an
automobile tire.
Sometimes, because of illness, tenn
porary excitement, or even unknown
causes, the walls of the small arteries
construct. These arteries then mar
row down and leave less space for
the blood to travel through. When
this happens, the blood that is
pumped into the arteries has to press
harder against their inner walls to
force its way through. Such an
overly strong pressure of the blood
against the inner walls of the blood
vessels is called high blood pres
sure" or apprehension"
Average "Pressures"
Doctors have taken blood pres
sures on thousands of well and sick
persons and have learned many
things about blood pressure. Young
children have pressures of rs to 100.
Young adults range from 100 to 12O.
Older people, from 120 to 40. These
figures are averages. Some persons
run pressures slightly above lao
and never develop symptoms of
apprehension. However, when the
systolic pressure tends to be above
140 or $50 the doctor begins to Won
der if apprehension is developing.
Because the blood pressure can go
up from nervousness during medi-
cal examination, a single test is not
enough. It sometimes takes the
doctor several months to decide
whether the high blood pressure
reading resulted from temporary
nervous tension or from true hy-
pertension. Usually, by repeated ex-
aminations, it can be decided def
initely.
Remember that almost all persons
with high blood pressure continue
to lead useful lives and with little
restrictions of activities. On the
average it is very mild type Of
illness.
New Treatments
Even in severe cases, considerable
relief Of symptoms and a better ex-
pectancy Of life can be obtained by
new treatments which have been de-
veloped in recent years. There are
number of treatments for hyper
tension.
Suiting the patients activities tt
his condition may be as important a:
the medicines which the doctor gives
At certain stages of the illness, i
might be necessary to rest at moor
and to slow down in all activities
Strain on the blood vessels and hear
must not be too great.
If reducing diet is prescribed, j
should be followed carefully. A per
son with apprehension does bette
when his weight is average or lit
tie below. There are several medi
cines which the doctor prescribes i
the hope that they will reduce tn
blood pressure or relieve the symr
