Cleveland Ladies Set
For Battle To Finish

CIeVelanu, u. - Our girls
are continuing to blast the
pins in the Cleveland Ladies
League in the new year as
they did in the old.
Goldie Malone threw a nice
1S4-503 set for runner-up
honors. Mary Sarapa toppled
the pins for a 1896, high
for January 3rd thus keep
ing her average in the 1905
which is nice bowling in any
league.
Our mother and daughter
team is letting us down as
most recently they could only
hit Al for Mary Bejjak
and 500 for Helen Pokersnik.
What happened Helen? Ann
Perovich is finding the spot
lately by hitting a 179 game
as part of a 462 series. Ella
Rudman hit a 116 game, re-
versed herself in the second
game for l61 land addeds a
Iyg game FOR a 75s IS J total.
On the Pioneer team the
$50 games seemed to pre-
dominate, M. Butler, 1856
157: Jean Beljan, 1856; Fran
ces York, 156 and Ann York,
154. For the Golub Funeral
Home whom the Pioneers de-
feated 80, Mildred Krivacic
is doing a grand job, picking
up her average from last
year by having rolled a 173.
Nice going, Milka. Mary Lou
Kuhar is doing nicely also on
a 1T average. She had two
good games Of 13S-134 for
367, boosting her average to
119; which is the way many
present higher than you seal
ed the. heights.
Our Junior Order trans
feree hit a beautiful 147-
137-146-430. Keep it up
Mary Ann Lesiak and we
are sure you'll soon overtake
some Of us older bowlers.
Whites Chime Bar team
did nicely against the lead
ing Miljak Painters taking
one game and holding their
own well in the other two
against such bombers as the
Miljaks. Credit is due for the
Whites squad for their week
lily turnout. We hope that
their regularity and nicely
will have it's compensation
one of these days.

farmers and ranchers may continue
to carry out conservation work under
the 1855 ACProgram which will con-
tinue through December 1865. Pro-
ducers desiring to carry out conser-
walton work this year may request

Should marketing quotas be voted
down "the agricultural economy of
Montana will suffer a decrease in
purchasing power of some fifty mil
lion dollars" Attorney General Arm
old H. Olsen told two large Farmers
Union picnic audiences this past
week in urging eyes" vote on the
wheat referendum, Saturday, June
25. Olsen spoke at the McCone
County Flu picnic at Circle last
Thursday and at the Hill County Flu
picnic at Havre Sunday.
eff the farmers do not vote IN
favor of marketing quotas in suffi-
Gent numbers-if more than one
third of them vote against such quo
tas-then all marketing quotas will
be off and the wheat price support
will drop to $1.20 per bushel," Olsen
pointed out. eff such a thing should
come to pass, dread the thought of
the agricultural depression that will
result.
Cheap wheat will result in
cheap corn and other feed grains,
weakening prices all along the way.
Cheap feed would mean cheap live
stock, cheap milk, cheap butter,
cheap poultry and cheap eggs. Such
conditions would ruin most aver
age farmers.

Every farm family is faced with the
situation now that farm prices are
at stake. Everywhere | go, | have
been urging wheat farmers to vote
in favor of marketing quotas. The

GAS a matter of fact, if the wheat
marketing quotas are defeated, the
agricultural economy in Montana will
suffer a decrease in purchasing pow

Even though marketing quotas

The job of developing a 1866 Agri-
cultural Conservation Program adapt
ed to Montana conditions and needs
will get under way soon following
announcement of the National ACP
Program by True D. Morse, under
secretary of agriculture.
The 1856 program will be developed
and conducted on the basis of a $3.50
million fund recently authorized by
Congress. Under this program, the
ACP shares with farmers and ranch
ers a part of the cost of approved
conservation practices carried out on
their land.
The 1856 progra21 is similar to the
1866 program, with notifications
which are expected to make it more
effective in helping farmers meet
conservation practices, but assistance
will not be limited to such practices
Special emphasis in next years pro-
gram is to be given to measures which
will protect land diverted from al
lotment crops IN 1856.
County conservation groups will
consider the National ACProgram
and make recommendation to the
state Sos committee, according to
Leo S. Kolstad, state ASC admins

have been considered, the

the State Board of Land Com
missioners appears justified in
looking for more than the usual
return for the state. The boards
new policy aims at a bigger
share of the oil when the state
can practically guarantee its
lessee that oil is there. This
seems perfectly fair. The oil
industry claims that it must
have seven-eighths of the pro-
duction of every we'll to pay
off all the dry holes it drilled
in looking for that producer.
In this case, there is no need
for all that exploration.
Wouldn't it be funny if
the Land Board removed the
state tract from this sale, and
held it off the market until
they know what Atlantic's

cred? Maybe the state would
then qualify for one of those
fabulous royalty deals which
the industry is so free with

Because of the state leasing
controversy, Atlantic was un-

that oil field is as big as it
looks now, the state land is
worth its weight in uranium.
The state acreage is up for

It's value, which would have
been next to nothing a month
ago, may now have gone clear
out of sight. And some bidder,

rs acres for wheat and Is acres
for other crops" the farm editor
stated "At an average yield of ID
bushels an acre, there would be
1880 bushels of wheat at rs per
cent of parity as recently set by
Ezra Taft Benson. Taking the ma
tional average price of rs per cent
parity at $1.81 bushel, the cash
value of 1880 bushels would be
$2,497.00 plus any income from
the diverted acres"
But" he continued, Tets take
this same farm with the operator
staying out of the program and
going on the free market under
prevailing mo" vote and we find
the income from the entire 100
acres planted to wheat and yield
ing 18 bushels per acre amounting
to only $2,142 assuming market
price equals so per cent of parity
or $1.19 a bushel. This is still
$355 LESS than the farmer would
have with a prevailing yes vote.
Meanwhile there would be no add
ditional income from diverted
acres. Moreover there is good
chance the free market price will
be considerably less than $1.19 a
bushel. Freight charges (of about
20 cents a busheD would have to
be deducted for Montana wheat
(from the national average sup
port price,"
Kenfield also emphasized to
wheat growers that, even though
they vote down marketing quotas,
they will still have to operate under
the drastic 35 per cent reduction in
acres decreed by the Secretary of
Agriculture if they are to be pro-
tected by even the bottom SO per
cent of parity price supports. The
SO per cent support automatically
go into effect if more than one

In Montana .

Although placing considerable
importance on an overwhelming
yves" vote on the wheat marketing
quota referendum of a means of
backing up the strong bipartisan
fight in Congress to enact a sound
farm program, Leonard Kenfield,
Great Falls, told Saturday night
radio audience that "the big issue
-. is one of hard, cold cash."
Kenfield, editor of Montana
Farmers Union News, spoke over
the facilities of the five-station
Z-Bar network.
Emphasizing the Importance of
a large yes" vote from the stand
point of purchasing power, Kenfield
said i'm Montana yes vote means
dollars and cents not only to farm
ers on the land, but to everyone"
A turning-down of the quota
referendum, he said, could mean
a loss of anywhere from $50 mill
lion to $40 million a year. Such
loss would take big chunk out
of Montana's economy, adversely
affecting not only farmers, but
businessmen, workers, school teach
=ers and many others. Even a $50
million year loss on wheat income
by way of prevailing mo" vote
is almost equal to the total value
of the 1852 oil and copper produc-
ton in Montana. That gives you
an idea how important yes vote
is in the wheat marketing refern-
dunn, June g."
(The marketing quota, to carry,
must receive 662s per cent of all
votes cast by the nations wheat
growers.)
To point up the Importance of
the "cold cash" angle to the indi-
vidual farmer, kenfield used the
example of small operator who
normally plants 100 acres to wheat.

Typical for the entire industry
was the statement made recently by
Con Kelley, the retiring chairman of
Anaconda Company. Kelley said:
'Anaconda's future was never so

Against this promising outlook
for the corporation owners is the fact
that workers in the industry have not
recovered from their loss of earnings
last year, the fact that their wages
buy less of what is needed to support
themselves and their families, the
fact that they are entitled to far
more decent living than the COM
panies are now paying. Non-ferrous

of all industries. In Butte, Montana,

average of over IL men each year

extreme hazards to which these work
