But gamblers luck never lasts forever.
Most spectators learn that it pays to know
when to quit. Past experience indicates that
the time is probably close at hand when
marginal land should be put back to grass.
For the grower who took flyer on such
land on top of his regular operations on
land that is really cut out for grain produc-
ton, the answer is comparatively simple.
He can divert the marginal acreage under
the wheat allotment program.
Even the out-and-out speculator who has
little or no good wheat ground and who
started farming on marginal land in recent
years would do well to look at his hole card.
The time to bow out of a risky venture is
before luck runs out-not afterwards.

in making this type of livestock loan, could
insure 10, 20 or 80 per cent under gov
eminent guarantee of that percentage?" in
quireS this banker. ga Pea or bank, in turn,
would risk its own assets for 70, 80 or go
per cent as the Individual case would justify.
For the amount insured only, let the Dor
rover pay penalty of 1 per cent additional
interest and let the lending agency pay a
similar per cent out of its earnings.
''Thus, you would accumulate a 2 per
cent per annum sinking fund to be held by
the government to take care of catastrophe
or unforeseen losses This would be equiva-
lent to "a times the premium paid to insure
bank deposits and over a period of years
would pyramid into remarkable safeguard.
The possibility of loss by the government
would thus be greatly minimized
Banks and other established agencies
would supply the money and pay all costs of
service and inspection. 1t would enable the
operator to continue to do business with the
people who know him, who know his back
ground and history, climatic conditions and
his production record"
Montana Farmer-Stoclman will be in
terested to hear how readers feel about this
proposal for long-term livestock loans.

Time to Retire Marginal Acres

FOR A DECADE and more, prices for
grain have been good and growing condi-
tons have been abnormally favorable The
temptation to pillow up land ordinarily re-
garded as marginal for cultivation has been
great In fact, too great to be resisted in
many Montana areas.
The result is that hundreds of thousands
of acres have been plowed up and planted
to wheat acres that under longtime aver
age conditions would not produce profitable
crops. But as things turned out, the gamble
paid out handsomely in many instances.
Moisture came in abundance and soil that
was comparatively poor and thin responded
amazingly. Those who gambled on such land
cashed in

LONGTIME Livestock Loans?

LIVESTOCK OPERATIONS should be
stabilized in the future through long-term
financing, in the opinion of Emmett J. Dig
nan, Vice President of the United States
National Bank of Denver
Speaking before a recent meeting of the
Wyoming Hereford Association, Mr.. Dignan
pointed to the way in which bank deposits
were stabilized through the establishment
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Program.
With this plan, banks paid one-twelfth of
one per cent premium as insurance to cover
the federal guarantee of deposits. There was
much criticism of this program when it was
started. But it has proved highly successful.
Years ago, about the only home financing
available was in the form of three or five
year loans at perhaps z per cent interest
with no amortization plan. Then the FILA
insured loan program was developed, fol-
lowed by CT insured loans. Fifteen and
20-year loans on an amOrtized basis are
now recognized as entirely practical for
home financing. Monthly payments include
the payment of principal, interest, taxes and
fire insurance.
The Denver banker firmly believes that
a similar program would be successful for
livestock loans "where the unit is well-bal-
anced, the operator is experienced and
sober, and his production record through
the years is good"
He thinks it is Illogical for lending
agencies, "Who are custodians of literally
billions of dollars in funds that rightfully
are due or will belong to the widows and
orphans of the nation, to invest these funds
in 20, Is and 30-year loans on farms and
ranches and then we, in the next breath,
say that the farmer, the rancher and the
operator who year after year produce the
current income to meet interest taxes and
amortization payments should be held down
to six-month or one-year loan, when in
the final analysis the productivity of the
livestock or farming operation is in essence
the only thing that makes the mortgage on
the land good investment"
The fact that such program has never
been developed is perhaps no proper basis
for contending that it cannot be done. The
trend in many lines of business and indus
try has been toward longer term financing
on an amortization basis.

every case of pneumonia. 1t may result
from irritation from breathing dust or
fumes. Many colds lead to bronchitis
Foreign bodies such as nuts or par
ticles of candy may cause bronchitis.
Lung cancer may also include a bron-
chuS. Therefore, bronchitis is simply
a term implying Inflammation of the
lining membranes of the bronchi.
AS in any other medical condition,
the treatment of bronchitis is primarily
to find and remove the cause, if pos
Sible. In other words, just painting over
the surface does not effect cure.
There are many kinds of cough syrup,
some mainly to stimulate the cough and
so get rid of the infection and some to
control the cough so the patient can
rest and sleep.
Cough Medicines
No cough medicine is particularly
good for serious diseases like tubercu-
losis, lung cancer, or a tack that may
have been inhaled. You can, therefore,
see that cough medicine which works
well on one patient may be just the
wrong medicine for another.
Inasmuch as the nerves of the bron-
Chi are stimulated by Inflammation,
the diaphragm becomes irritated and
cough results in an effort to remove
any excess material. OftentimeS after
an attack of bronchitis, one may have
cough for as long as two weeks. But,
any cough which persists for more than
three weeks or any cough which pro-
duces blood should have the immediate
attention of your family physician.
In recent years medicine has made
great advances. The bronchoscope has
been invented and by means of this,
it is possible for a doctor trained in
its use, to look right into the bronchus.
1t is a great help in removing foreign
bodies. Long continued bronchitis may
result in permanent enlargement of the
bronchi which allows an accumulation
of material to remain there. This otter
results in constant wheeling and al
unpleasant odor.
Medical science has also advanced t.
the point where in cases of early can
Ger and many other conditions of the
lung, it is possible to remove a part Oh
even all of a lung, resulting in com
plete recovery and return to daily
routine.

Bronchitis
By P. w. WILLIS JR., MD.
Asst. Secretary-TreaSurer
Montana Medical association

BRONCHITIS MEANS inflammation
or infection of the bronchial tubes. It
may be of short duration and relatively
severe, in which case it is called acute.
Or, it may be long lasting and called
chronic. 1t is not a disease in itself but
symptom of disease. In medicine,
the term ''itis" on the end of word
means infection or Inflammation. The
first part of the word deSignateS the
location in the body where that infec-
ton exists, such as tonsillitis, appendi-
citis, etc.
In breathing, we breathe in pure air
and the oxygen from that air is alb
sorbed by the lungs. When we exhale,
the used, impure air is cast out. In
order to maintain this exchange, our
breathing apparatus is much like a
tree. The windpipe is the main trunk
and the branches in the chest from the
windpipe are called the bronchi.
At the end of these branches are
small balloons made of tissue or mucus
membrane which expand or contract.
These constitute the five lobes Of the
lung, three on the right and two on the
left. 1t is through these small balloons
or bulbs that the actual exchange of
good and bad air is made but all the
air, good and bad, has to pass through
the windpipe to the bronchi
Protective Equipment
When these bulbs are infected with
too many germs or germs of a particu-
lar kind, it is often called pneumonitis,
pneumonia or tuberculosis. The wind
pipe opens into the throat through the
voice organ, the larynx, which has a
valve-like structure which closes during
swallowing so that food does not enter
the breathing apparatus In the bronchi,
the mucus membrane has tiny hair-like
projections called scilia. These wave
outward in unison, propelling outward
mucus and foreign material which
might otherwise enter the lungs And
this is the material that is raised when
a certain amount accumulateS and you
cough.
When these bronchi become infected
it becomes bronchitis. This is true in

PROPER STORAGE SAVES
FARM GASOLINE SUPPLY

Proper farm storage will save
gasoline just as a good roof will
save corn and hay.
Byron Bondurant, extension
agricultural engineer, says that
shading your outside storage tank
with a sunshade or tree will cut
down evaporation loss.
Loss from evaporation through
the vent can run as high as 10
percent in a month if the tempera-
ture in the tank rises in the hot
summer sun. The tractor will be
harder to start when you use the
gasoline that's left. Part of the
gasoline evaporates, and what's
left has a higher gum content
that may cause sticky valves.
Don't put your gasoline storage
tank in a building, Bondurant says.
That will void your fire insurance
policy and increase the possibility
of fire. Keep a storage tank at
least Is feet away from any build
ing.
Ask a gasoline service man
about using a pressure valve on
the vent to reduce evaporation
loss. Such valves allow the pres
sure to build up to 2 or pounds

4-H SOFTBALL
LEAGUE PLAY
Games Played During Week
End Results in Shake-up in
League Standings
COUNTY LINE FIRST

Three games were played in the
Smyrna All Softball League dur
ing the past week. AS a result
there was quite shake-up in the
league standings. The County Line
Clubbers took over sole possession
of first place by posting triumphs
over FIG and Bucking Broncos.
John Clark had only one bad inn
ing, the first, in beating FIG, 14-5.
He struck out IA in evening, his
won-lost record at IL. The Mem
orial Day doubleheader played last
Sunday found the County Line and
Woodland Beach teams pounding
out victories. The Bucking Bron-
cos were the victims of the County
Line Club in a slam-bang affair
which featured 33 hits, 27 runs,
and a 1911 final score. Ronnie
Stevens started for County Line
and, although shakey in spots,
weathered the storm to hang up
his second win against no defeats.
Jim Haas was the batting hero for
County Line with triple and two
homeruns. Junior Moore went all
the way in defeat. His record now
stands at 1-2. In the second half of
the double-header, another slug
fest took place. In this contest the
Woodland Beach Sea Gulls thump-
ed the FIG team, 1911. Reds
SethInan (2-1) went the distance
for the Sea Gulls. Walks proved
a great hindrance to him, however.
Ed Robinson and Earl Lowman
homered, and Juney Media tripled
to power the Woodland Beach at
tack. In games this week, County
Line played host to Woodland
Beach in a battle for first place on
Wednesday evening, while FIG
will entertain Bucking Broncos
next Sunday. The standings:
