UNCLE OF LOUIS WHITED
VISITOR r o IDAHO

Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Carter have
been here from Meridian, Idaho,
visiting his nephew and wife, Mr..
and Mrs. Louis Whited. A native
of Missouri, MI. Whited lived at
Meridian a number of years be-
fore coming to Sidney in 1914.
Meridian is in the highly produc-
tive Boise valley irrigation pro-
ject which is SIS miles long and
80 miles wide. Our irrigation pro-
ject has that length but is mar
row in comparison. This is the
Carriers first visit here and he
was very much impressed with
the development he noted on tours
of the area with MIR. Whited. He
has been in nearly every phase
of irrigation development, includ-
ing ditching and farming, in the
Boise project supplied with water
by three dams in the Boise
river. Favoring this valley is the
leveller land for gravity irriga-
ton while the land in the Boise
project is rolling and not SO adapt
able. However, it is richly pro-
ductive of fruit, vegetables and
all kinds of row crops, and farms
there are beauty spots, one after
another. Mrs. Carter is a native
of Missouri, like Mr.. Whited, while
Mr.. Carter was reared in Lee
county, Virginia, adjoining Scott
county, where Ed Edmondson,
manager of the local Penney store,
grew up. This came out when Mr..
Whited introduced the two in the
Penney store the other day and
occasioned a very pleasant visit.

IndustiiesPlan
Getting Results

Helena - Montanans are get
ting fatter paychecks and then
dollars are going farther due tC
increased economic development
of the state, Gov. J. Hugo Aron-
son pointed out in an analysis OF
new industry in Montana during
his administration.
Aronson scored efforts by his
opponent, Atty. Gen. Arnold H.
Olsen, to "scare industries out
of Montana" The governor point
ed out the Aronson program Of
inviting industries to "Share Mon
tana's favorable industrial CHI
mate has given us new payrolls,
new tax bases and new resi-"
dents"
The states chief executive
called attention to the fact that
Montana has shown STEADY eco
nomic progress throughout my
administration, and all Montana
has shared in that progress"
Specifically, he pointed out that
the personal income of Montanans
in 1850 was only 1886, 000, 900,
while last year it had risen to
0,000,0 900, a gain of 21.5 per
cent. AT the same time, he said,
the cost of living index in the
state had risen only IL per cent,
giving CONSUMERS 10 per cent
more money to spend for grocer
les"
Comparing with neighboring
states, he showed that the aver
age Montanan last year earned
$1,844, the largest per capita in
come a Montanan has ever en-
joyed. This, Aronson said, was
a 6 per cent increase over the
previous year, largest increase
in per capita income in the north
west and l per cent larger than
the national increase. Both Ore
gon and Idaho, he said, had
smaller per capita incomes than
Montana last year.
While industry was burgeoning,
the governor said, the state land
commissioner was increasing COL
lections from state land under
farm leases, thus adding to the
school children's income in the
state.
SIN 1852, the year l was elect
ed governor" Aronson said, "the
collections from agricultural leas-
IS being farmed on a c~rop-share
basis were $1,425,436.30. Only
.wo years later the collections
rom crop-share on state school
ands were $2,651, 453.87, or about
81 ,225,0 900 more.
This increase was due to bet
er administration. Appointment
If the present land commissioner
vas made by me because he had
solid farm and ranch back
ground. He has administered
hese state lands as though they
we're his own, and the schools
lave benefited enormously by
he practically effective methods
lie has used to get full value
them.
eff the same practical admin
Stration had been applied to the
il lands, if the attorney general
Iad not through legal maneuvers
nd bungling dried UP the flow
f oil money to the schools, Mon
ana could have had a similar
ecord on that score"
