community was visited by rep
resentative of the Jewish National
Fund. He met with some of us to
discuss the formation of a Jewish
National Fund Council whose pur-
pose it would be to coordinate the
local activities for the Jewish Ma
tional Fund and to raise money
for that agency.
Until he met with me, the story
that he told was that the Jewish
National Fund was no longer a
partner in the United Israel Appeal
and therefore was obligated to raise
money Independently. In our con-
versation, | pointed out to him
that the bulletins which / had re-
ceived from the Jewish Agency ad-
vised me that the Jewish National
Fund this year would receive the
sum of $8,400,000 from the Jewish
Agency, which in turn gets it's
money from the United Israel Ap-
peal, which gets it's money from
the welfare funds of the country.
Furthermore, / advised him, the
agreement which the Jewish Ma
tional Fund had with the Jewish
Agency provided that the JNF
could carry on its traditional fund
raising activities as in the past, but
all funds received over $2,100,000
from these collections must be
turned back to the United Israel
Appeal.
All of this, he assured me, was
utter nonsense.

Seek Feed Rates
On Frosted Wheat

COMMISSIONER Of agriculture,
Alfred Anderson, asked three rail-
roads serving the grain producing
area in northern Montana for the
same rates as other feed grain to aid
in the movement of damaged wheat
into consuming channels.
Because of inclement weather last
fall during the harvest season, he
said, ''much of the wheat in the
northern tier of counties in Montana
was damaged by frost and sprouting
to degree that makes it unfit for
milling purposes and places it in the
category of livestock feed.
Freight rates on wheat, intra-
state, make it difficult for this north
ern area to compete with other
sources Of feed grain supply. There
appears to be IA cents per hundred
weight difference in rates on wheat
and feed grains between the points
of Great Falls and Billings.

Weather Observer
By MILDRED KELSO

Before all of this, however, you
are likely to have to 60 through a
period of adjustment. Speaking from
experience, would say it goes some
thing like this:
You are inclined to be sullxy when
the weather bureau is first estab-
lished at your home, and you refuse
to cooperate with the cooperative
observer who happens also to be
your husband. You wonder, audibly,
how he ever let himself be slickered
into such a deal. and you mention
tartly that you don't enjoy playing
second fiddle to weather bureau.
You ignore the precision instruments
in that beehive-like contraption out
in the garden, and you continue to
check the temperature from the old
Sears Roebuck thermometer tackled
to the shady side of a tree.
You Take MotherlY Interest
After awhile, though, much to your
own surprise, you find yourself be-
coming interested in the set-up.
Likely this happened the first time
you were forced to pinch-hit while
the observer was i'll. You were proud
of the accuracy of your temperature
readings, and thrilled when you
succeeded in setting the delicate in
struments in readiness for their next

Growers Protest
Potato Ceiling

WHAT IS A FAIR price for Mon
tana potatoes?
Definitely not $3.45 a hundred
pounds, the ceiling set by OPS, Mon
tana growers have declared. In pro-
test, representatives of Montana po-
tato grower associations announced
a marketing holiday" that began
Saturday, Jan. 10.
In the meantime grower repre-
sentatives journeyed to Bozeman to
study price records at Montana State
college. With the cooperation of
college agricultural economists the
group determined that state growers
need a price ceiling of $4.73 to show
a fair profit.
Montana growers particularly re-
scented the fact that OPS had set
higher price, $3.85, on Idaho pota-
toes. In protesting to Washington
they marshaled evidence that Mon
tana potatoes had always command
ed a premium over the Idaho product.
Growers further argued that levels
of ceilings established now should
reflect the fact that potatoes were
produced at loss last year.
As this issue goes to press assur-
ances have been received from the
office of price sterilization in Wash
ington. that it will review the cell
ings set on Montana potatoes and
make such adjustment as may be
warranted" What the adjustment
will be, if any, remains to be seen.
