Montana Range Grasses
Bluebunch Wheatgrass
By F. Il. BRANSON
Montana Ag. Exp. Station

BLUEBUNCH WHEATGRASS is
one of the most abundant grasses of
the foothills of central and western
Montana. 1t may also be found
locally abundant on timbered hills,
stream breaks and buttes on the
plains. 1t is drouth resistant and is
found chiefly on dry, exposed slopes.
Because of its extensive distribu-
ton and high palatability bluebunch
wheatgrass is one of the most priced
range grasses on many ranges. 1t is
readily eaten by all classes of live
stock. Bluebunch wheatgrass pro-
duces large amount of forage and
stays green longer than many spe-
cies associated with it.
Blue bunch is one of the more
easily recognized wheatgrasses be-
cause of its bunch habit of growth
and conspicuous outward curved
awns or boards. 1t is a native per-
ennial grass of green or blush color
that grows one to three feet tall.
Although it is highly productive
grass when moderately grazed,
under heavy grazing it disappears in
few years and is replaced by less

at one fifty-seven Bill followed suit
and was surprised and delighted
when they paid him off in green
backs, to the tune of twenty three
thousand dollars.
''How long has this been going
on?" he asked Hymie.
Listen" said Hynie. I'm in the

so BILL MOVED into Hymie's
office and into suite at the Palace;
and by Christmas he was riding in
a carriage with Flood and hobnob-
bling with Lucky Baldwin. There
was only one of the big boys he
didn't meet-some guy named STAN
ford, who was building a railroad.
There was a joker in this layout:
The brokerage business called for
genteel front; there could be no
Sprees. One day in early spring Bill
turned around in his swivel chair
and looked down toward the Bay
and the Golden Gate. 1t was beau

centage?"

They gave it a ride, spreading il
thinly across the board; and wher
the Comstock crashed across the
board, some of the blooded sport:
lost millions. They fished a few o.
them out of the Bay.
When creditors moved in and tool
the furniture, Bill and Hyrnie wen
out and stood on the street corne
and shivered. One of those heav,
spring fogs mad moved in from tn
sea. ''Well?" said Hymie. 'What d.
we eat on?"
''What about your diamond?"

'Never mind" Bill said.

bunch. Lets get drunk"
''We start on beer" said Hynie.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-06-15

But Hymie slipped something into
the beer and when Bill woke up cold
and sick, he was lying in the scrup-
pers of tramp schooner, heading
north, and red-handed bosun with
a bucket was sluicing him with sea
water.
He was still sick when he jumped
ship at Portland and headed inland
with pack train bound for Canyon
City. By the time he reached the dry
wash outside of town he felt better.
He found his old clothes where he
had cached them, made a bonfire
of his salt-stained broadcloth and
headed for the claim.
JOEL McILROY saw him coming
but only grunted by way of greeting
and kept on shoveling. Bill looked
at him, and at the cut and the water
sparkling in the Long Tom, and he
felt fine.
''Do you know where I've been,
Joel? Listen"
''Your sinful trails mean nothing
to me-" said Joel you've spent that
seven dollars, no doubt?"
Cali of it," Bill admitted. 'But I'll
pay 'er back, Joel"
''That you will" said Joel. every
sweating cent of it, laddie ;. There's
your shovel yonder."
The sun beat on Bills back,
warming him to the marrow. He
sweated and grinned. The shovel
blade had rusted but the clean grav-
ell would soon make it shine again
There was something about the des-
ert that warmed mans heart: The
crickets singing in the rimrock and
lone buzzard wheeling out there
against the sky. 1t was good to have

that guy, Stanford, building hi

There was no use admitting al
this to Joel. Joel wouldn't under
stand that it had been cheap at tn
price. Joel would say-which wa
fact, of course, anyway you locke
at it-that Bills spree had cost hir
all of seven dollars, a sinful vast
of good, hard money.

McKe|din Hits Failure
ToHo|d Hearing Prior
To Rate Increases
By Gene Goodwin

Gov. McKeldin believes the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission should have held a
public hearing before it passed
on increased charges to its some
$4,000 customers in nearby Mary
land two months ago.
II can't understand why, with
all the evidence on their side,
they couldn't have called the
public in for a hearing" the Gov
ernor told The Star during an
interview in Annapolis yesterday.
He called attention to the re-
port of Ford, Bacon & Davis, the
New York engineering consultant
firm which was hired to investi-
gate the sanitary commission
last year. The report, delivered
early in 1853, recommended that
the commission increase its rev.
enues to clear up long standing
deficits.
The sanitary commission in
April added a IA cent sewage
charge to its present water rate
of q cents per 1000 gallons. It
also increased its Montgomery
County refuse collection rate from
$1.65 to $2,25 a month, raised its
incinerator charge from So to $4
per ton and decided that the new
front-foot benefit charges on wa.
ter and sewage installations
made last year would be IS cents
per front foot for each service. :,
AppOintees Of Governor.
Gov. McKeldin said he had
received only a few letters pro-
testing the increased charges.
He added, however, he doubted
whether many nearby Maryland
residents realized that the sani-
tary commission is a State
agency and that he appoints
the three commissioners.
| Asked whether he felt any
reorganization of the commission
was needed, the Governor said
that is a question for suburban
Maryland residents to decide.
He said it might be good
idea to bring in a general man.
ager, as was recommended by
Ford, Bacon & Davis.
NOn-Expert Salaries.
1--WE can't expect to get ex-
perts to sit on the commission at
those salaries" he said. The
three commissioners now receive
$4,000. $1,000 and $500 a year.
But perhaps it's more impor-
tant that the commission have
a good chief engineer rather
than a general manager" the
Governor added. And I think it
does have a good chief engineer
now"
Asked about one proposal that
the sanitary commission be re-
quired to submit proposed rate
increases to the Maryland Public
Service Commission for approval
as private utilities are required
to do, the Governor said he
doubts whether that should or
| co,l1d he done'
mo other State agency is re-
quired to do that" he said.

Board Backs Raise
For Districts 3,1OO
Per Diem Workers

The wages of about 3,10O per
diem workers in the District will
be increased shortly, if the Com
miSSioners follow the recon-
mendation of the District Wage
Board.
The board had q conference
with Schuyler Lowe, director of
General Administration for the
District. and told him that an
increase in wages for the per
diem employees was justified. He
is expected to forward the recon-
mendation to the Commissioners.
Just what the increase will be
was not made known but it is
believed that it will be about
18 cents an hour. This is based
on the 18-cent raise given in
April by the Defense Wage
Board.
Last Raise in 1851.
The last increase for District
per diem employees was granted
on July /, 1851. according to
Henry F. Hubbard. Wage Board
chairman. The Defense Board
has since granted two raises.
The problem which the Com
missioners will have to face is
how to get about 81 million to
pay the increases. Pay raises for
teachers, police and firemen are
granted by Congress. In the case
of per diem workers. the Com
miSsionerS do not have to get
the consent Of Congress. but
they do have to get the money
1t was pointed out today that
there are three courses the Com
missioners could take in grant,
ing the increase. They could
make the increase effective at
once or on July IS, grant the
increase retroactive to either
July / or Is and wait until Con-
gress appropriates the money. or
grant the increase effective at
a date when Congress passes the
needed appropriation.
400 Jobs Surveyed.
The wage board has held four
sessions and discussed the ma
terial furnished by investigators
of the Personnel Once. In ad-
dition to the wage scale, they
also have made a survey Of job
classifications.
One member said that about
400 jobs had been surveyed. Some !
we're advanced in classification !
