University Plans Big, New
Sub-Station Field Day

Something new in the way of
field days for Delaware is being
planned by the University Agri-
cultural Experiment Station.
The annual August Georgetown
Sub-statien Field Day is being en-
aarged to an aIl-day event, with
four big new features. The new
Geld day is a special feature Of the
Sub stations 10th anniversary
year.
The Field Day has been an an
nuai event OF the departments of
horticulture, agronomy, plant path
ciogy, and entomology for seven
years. The 80 and more acres of
their experimental plots are open
ed to the public, and research ex-
planned by staff members.
This year, for the first time, the
fapge poultry research plant at the
station win be included. The new
state poultry diagnostic laboratory
will also be open for inspection.
The Sussex County Artificial
Breeders Association viii hold
tAeir annual Calf Show in conjunc-
tson with the Field Day. There
will also be dairy exhibits, and the
Agricultural Extension Service
staff will join With the Experiment
Station to plan other events.
Professor Eugene p. Brasher, Of
the horticulture department, heads
tze planning committee. Says
Brasher. 'sThe Extension and Ex-
pertinent station stats are joining
together to show how the Univers-
ity serves its state through agri-
cultural research and teaching. The
Field Day will give us another
chance to talk with farmers about
new farm developments and how
cur research can help them. We
hope to make this enlarged field
day an annual event from now on"

Egg Production Needs

MANY BUSINESSMEN NOW
COVERED BY SOCIAL
SECURITY LEGISLATION

Nearly every Independent business
man in Montana acquired old age and
survivors insurance protection
through social security this spring
according to Stewart J. Thomas, man.
ager of the Helena social security
office.
Most self-employed people, whose
earnings began counting toward So
cial security on January 1, 1851,
earned their sixth quarter of cover
age" in April, Thomas explained. Be-
fore any social security old-age bene-
fits are payable, an individual who
retires at age IS or over, must have
at least six calendar quarters of work
covered by social security.
Family benefits through old-age
and survivors insurance would be pay
able if any of these insured business
men should die today" he added.
However, more than six quarters
of work will be needed to qualify for
retirement payments, unless reached
IS before July 1, 1854"
A few self-employed people COW
cred by social security neglected to
file Schedule G with their income
tax return on 1851 income, Thomas
said. Since this is the only method
for reporting business income for So
cial security, those persons are ad-
vised to get in touch with the inter-
nal revenue office to file an amended
return.
Schedule c must be filed by all
covered self-employed people who had
net earnings from self-employment
amounting to $500 or more in 1851,
he explained. The form is filed even
though no income tax is due.
Farm operators and some profess
ional people are excluded from social
security, but all others in business for
either as owners or part
ners, are covered on a compulsory
basis.
Eligible self-employed people over
The age of IS who have permanently
Or temporarily retired, or those whose |
income has dropped |
below $500 year, may apply for
social security benefits at this time,
Thomas said.
He suggested that others who are
planning to retire soon should con-
ult the nearest social security of
ice to determine the best time to
lie their applications.

with it's guard down. Nature on the
loose is formidable barroom brawl-
er, and the Army Engineers have
shown themselves to be pitifully I'M
derequipped to tackle her. Our ma
tional policy has been predicated on
the control of floods rather than on
their prevention. While complete pre-
vention is as impossible as complete
control, program designed to hold
the water on the land through revege-
tation and soil conservation would
make control of dangerous surplus
waters much simpler. less expensive,
and more permanent. BY running ev-

land as rapidly as it falls and by COM
pressing the flood crests between

floods. By encouraging industrial, ag-
ricultural and residential development
behind these Unstable bulwarks, they
invite flood disasters.
Flood damage can be prevented;
but it will be prevented only when

when the flood-control agencies learn

Around April 1, 1850, Montanans
together with other Americans, OBJ
served with interest the activities
surrounding the taking of the 18th
Census. The compilation of the data
collected represents a tremendous
job, which is still underway. Recent
ly, however, reports have been COM
pleted for Montana which add ma
terially to our knowledge of the
makeup and characteristics of it's
population. Earlier articles published
in Montana Business have dealt with
the growth in the states total popu-
lation, urban and rural residence,
and the age and sex distribution of
Montana's citizens. A more recent
Census Bureau report provides in
teresting details on such character
istics as education, martial status,
number and size of households, and
country of birth.
EDUCATION
Despite the fact that World War
III interrupted the education of many
persons, Montana's 1850 population
recorded substantial increase over
the 1910 population in the amount of
formal education received. The med
ian number of school years COM
pleted by all persons % years of
age and over in 1850 was 1912, COM
pared to 8.8 ten years earlier. These
figures indicate that the educational
attainment of Montanans is above
the national average; in the United
States as whole, the median number
of years of school completed was 9.3
in 1850.
The greatest increase in number
of school years completed occurred
among Montana's female population.
1t is likely that the war and oppor-
5unities for employment contributed
to the fewer years of schooling COM
Dleted by males.
Females residing in urban areas
had attained the greatest amount of
formal education of any group, with
/ median of II years completed. Ur-
)an areas as a whole showed a sub
tantially greater median educational
evel than did rural-farm and rural
lonfarm areas.
Over SO per cent of Montana's |
children between the ages of 7 and |
3 and "a per cent of the 14-and |
5-year-olds were enrolled in school |
n 1850. In the older age groups, the
Ter cent declines rapidly. Only 80 |
Ter cent of the 16-and 17-year-olds
we're attending school in 1850, indi-
ating that there is still sizeable
lumber of young people who discon-
niue their education before complet-

Although the per cent of the popu-
alton in school in most age groups !;
id not change appreciably between i

Increase occurred in the age 20 to I

the males (68 per cent? are listee
as married in 1850.
Montana continues to have ar
excess of single males, with about
$4,000 single men compared to $4,000
single women. The distribution of
the single males between urban and
rural residence is such, however, that
the Census Bureau in a recent news
release was moved to advise women
in search of matrimonial prospects
to focus their attention upon Mon
tana's rural areas. This appears to
have been good advice, since single
men residing in rural areas outnum-
bered single women, 100000 to IT,
900. Over half the single women re-
side in urban areas where employ
ment is more readily available.
NUMBER AND SIZE OF
HOUSEHOLDS
There were 1854 households in
the state of Montana in 1850. This
represents an increase of 10 per cent
over 1910 and reflects, as do the
high percentages of married persons
discussed above, the high marriage
rate since 1910. A household is de-
fined by the Census Bureau as in
Guiding "all persons who occupy a
house, an apartment, or other group
of rooms, or a room that constitutes
a dwelling unit" A household in
cludes the related family members and
the unrelated persons who share the
dwelling unit. AS is typically the
case, households in urban areas in
Montana have the smallest average
of persons (2.99) and the
areas the largest (3.69).
The average size of all households
in the state 1922 persons) is some
what smaller than the national aver
age of "a persons.
OF BIRTH
About SO per cent of Montana's
population was born within the
boundaries of the United States or
is possessions. The 43,119 persons
porn outside the country represent
\ variety of nations, with Canada,
he British Isles, the Scandinavian
countries, Germany, and Russia ac-
counting for about SO per cent. Cam
da has been the largest contributor
o Montana's population, with 7,468
or II per cent of all foreign
'orn residents listing it as the coun-
ry of their birth. Norway ranks
econd, having contributed IL per
ent of our foreign-born population.
The residence of the foreign-born |
opulation is almost equally divided |
etween urban and rural areas. |
Among the various nationalities, the |
nost significant concentrations as
etween urban and rural residence
ccur among the Norwegians, with
bout two-thirds living in rural areas,
lostly in the grain-producing re-
ions; and among the Irish, where
vo-thirds are urban jewellers.
Although Montana has no large
geographical concentration or colonies
f foreign-born population, certain
tend to center in par
cular areas. Canadian-born resi-
ents UNDERSTANDABLE are found in
rgest numbers in the northern coun-
es along the border. Fifty-six per
ent of the Irish reside in Silver
ow and Deer Lodge counties. Vel
wstone County is the home of ap- :
roximately one-third of Montana's
ussian-born population.

THE FACTS ABOUT O

The Civil Rights Congress, controlled as it Is by the
Communists, has attempted to put before the United Ma
lions the charge that the United States government, under
President truman, is guilty Of genocide against Negroes.
Genoclde means murder, or attempted murder, OF a whole
race, and is what Hitler was guilty of in his attempt to ex-
terminate the Jews in Europe.
This charge, like other political actions by the Com
munists and their various controlled organizations, is, OF
course, merely an attempt to help Russia. Embarrassing
the United States is one way to help Russia, because our
country is taking the lead in preventing or trying to pre-
vent Russian and Communist aggression in various parts
of the world. The charge of genocide against the United
States would certainly not help Negroes. And there is alb
solutely no truth in it.
The figures show that from 1880 to 1948, the latest
year in which complete statistics are available, the aver
age length of life in the United States went up for non
whites (about 95 per cent of whom are Negroes) from 48.1
years to 60 years, an increase in the life span of rs per
cent. The average length of life for whites increased also,
from Ola to 6S years, or between 10 and II. per cent.
When this country provides conditions which increase
the life span for Negroes at a rate more than double the
increase in the life span for whites, it is certainly not try
ing to exterminate the Negro people, as the Communists
in order to play Russias diplomatic game for her, are try
ing to prove.
