Yields Reported
Nigh In County;
Quality Is Tops

Madison county's 1852 wheat
harvest is going full blast and the
grain is rolling into local elevators
in the thousands of bushels.
Almost all the wheat taken to
the elevators is transported loose
and in open trucks. The 1852 yield
is better than average.
The crop ripened early this sea-
son and the harvest was well un.
der way by July 5. The first wheat
received at the Farm Bureau ele-
vators here was on July 2.
Moisture content of the wheat
arriving in London is comparative
ly low and high yields are being
reported.
Yield High
Majority of the yields reported
locally were in the 1873 busheI
per acre group, although yields
ranging from % to 38 bushels have
been reported.
: The poundage is good, according
to elevator men, and the moisture
content II and 1917. However, in
grain combined early in the day,
the moisture is as high as .15k.
Almost ideal harvesting weather
has prevailed in Madison county
|since the first fields were opened
for cutting.
Il Up to 500 pm. Wednesday 1872
1000 bushels of wheat had been re-
ceived at the Farm Bureau eleva-
tors.
James Shaw of the Shaw Elevs-
Sstor also reported that they had
sbeen kept exceedingly busy taking
IN wheat, but reported figures
We're not Immediately available as
to the amount received.
Owen Alderman, organization
director at the Farm Bureau, said.
Most of the wheat received is for
storage and very little for selling"
/, The selling price Wednesday was
I.95. If the wheat is stored the
government loan is S2.14 a bushei.
Best Ever
This years crop of wheat is
said to be the best ever" accord
ing to Ralph Matlock of the Farm
Bureau. Not only the quality but
the quantity may set a local rec
ord.
Sunday saw the greatest number
of farm trucks ever seen at one
time lined up at the Walnut Street
elevator with trucks parked from
the elevator all the way to High
Street.
Another line of trucks extended
along Walnut Street and around
the corner of First Street to Union
Street.
London storage space for the
1852 wheat crop was dwindling
fast Tuesday and if the rate of
deliveries continue at the same
pace the elevators would soon be
filled to capacity, attendants in
dicated.

in your introductions, ''Mr. So
and-So is hard of hearing, so you
will have to raise your voice a
little to him." And don't leave
a deaf friend at the mercy of
strangers who are much less
liable to be understood than
people with voices he is accus-
toned to.
Don't say anything that would
embarrass him or others when
you have to speak loud enough
for everyone to hear. Far better
to get a piece of paper and write
down any intimacies or else wait
until there is a chance for privacy.
HEN there's the problem of
hearing aids. They're a wonder
full invention and have changed
my life. But they bring in other
questions of etiquette.
Because hearing aids are not
yet as common as eyeglasses,
many people, seeing you with a
button in your ear, still stare as
if you are some sort of freak.
Others decide you are pitiful and
shake their heads in sympathy.
But the worst effect is that
the apparatus reminds people
that you are deaf. So they begin
to shout. The only solution, l
find, is to snap the machine off
and save batteries!

Don't whisper and don't

Tors of people are wired for
IL sound these days and I'm
one of them. I've had wooden
ears since was a lad of IL.
The most disoouraging thing
to a person who can't hear is to
be with people who shout a cou-
pie of verbs in your ear and then
taper down to whispers when it
comes to nouns and pronouns:
did you know about squiss-
squiss-squiss? Why they went to
squiss-squiss-squiss."
Then there are. those who
shout loud enough to be heard
a block away. In talking to a
deaf person, speak slowly and
loudly, about two or three feet
away. 1t is not impolite to in
quire, "Am l talking loud enough
for you?" Enunciate carefully -
many deaf people read lips.
Be sure your mouth is visible.
Keep your hands down and your
face toward the listener.

Contract Lambs
At 2OR Gents

CONTRACTING of 600 mixed
whitefaced lambs from the Millegan
area at 20 cents and 1,4O0 mixed
blackfaced lambs from the Choteau
area at 2O1z cents was reported by
the First National Bank Of Great
Falls last week.
The bank reported these sales
marked modest resumption of for
ward contracting that had practically
ceased in the state because of price
recession in the general markets.
During September number Of lambs
that had been delivered to traders on
previous contracts were forced into
central markets for sale because of
lack of orders on the part of traders
to dispose of them directly to feed
ers. Such sales were usually made
at considerable loss over first costs,
the bank stated.
There are still number of lambs
in the state unsold and not under
contract, the bank reports, that will
be pressing for sale in the next few
weeks.

Government is willing to spend 81
billion for a new atom bomb plant

the United States Government for
"squandering" billions on anna

The quotation claimed that Presi-
