Roins Halt Harvest;
Hamper Logging

continued heavy rain sees har-
vesting in the Flathead at a stand
still. In addition increasingly mud
dy back roads are resulting in
drastic curtailment to logging.
Jim Gustin, manager of the
Kalispell Feed and Grain Co.,
Thursday noon described the sit
uation is Every serious"
He continued that especially in
Creston and lower valley there
is considerable grain down, start
ing to sprout and mould.
In the Columbia Falls section
most of the grain seems to be still
standing, and it is somewhat light
er and better able to stand than
lower in the valley. Yields from
Bad Rock fields harvested be-
fore the rain went 35 and 40
bushels. Already partially har-;
vested were Eberhardt, Luther
Brown and Frank Carter fields.
Gustin remarked that Jack Ire
week of the lower valley cut some
barley Wednesday during the brief
rain respite, and it ran % percent
moisture content. Maximum allow
able moisture content is 13 per
cent if the grain is to keep.
Pea crop still remaining to be
harvested is in serious jeopardy.
The crop yield outlook became
more depressing as rain Thursday
became heavier. Pastures were
benefitting, but the problem is to
get the grain in.
Last wet fall that seriously re-
duced the harvest was in 1851.
Kalispell Feed and Grain and
Equity Supply Co., bought grain
dryers at the time, and these are
crop saving features. The dryers
are ON hand; three years ago they
had to be purchased and shipped.
From the logging standpoint, the
situation threatens the Flathead's
winter economy. August and Sep
tember ordinarily are dry months
with favorable conditions for a
strong inflow of logs into local
mill yards for storage purposes.
These help extend operations
through the winter when logging
is no longer practical.
Lawrence Rude, Plum Creek,
general manager, remarked Thurs
day morning that up the North
Fork it was taking one cat push
ing and another pulling to get a
loaded truck out of the woods.

CLEVELAND, April 24.-The
American public is about to rebel
against the large number of
health fund drives. the National
Conference on Solicitations was
told yesterday.
Charles C. Shafer, jr., head of

going mad with health fund
drives" and urged Government
control of such campaigns.
He said he was convinced that
many of the So-called health
and assistance drives are big
time promotions fostered by
nationally known advertising
agencies"
Government control is the
only answer" he said. Our
people are kind-hearted suckers
and they have to be protected
from themselves lest they give
away their last dollar. I actually
believe health drives will even
