MAY YOU A THE
VOTING BOOTH TO
ASK A QUESTION?

A voter is expected to Know
how he wants to vote before he
enters the voting booth. If he
is in doubt about any point of
procedure after entering, it is or
dinarily within the discretion of
the election judges to permit him
to ask a question, then resume
voting.

HOW LONG MAY
YOU STAY IN THE
VOTING BOOTH?

In some states the law limits
the time a person may spend in
a balloting booth. In Illinois, for
instance, it is five minutes.

MY Trip To
Camp Marden'
By Clara Marie Steppler

! was chosen as girl delegatI
from Richland County to Ar
Conservation Camp at Camp Mar
den, July 1920. Gary King wa.
chosen as boy delegate. Carl Hun
ter took us up in his car.
There were delegates from forty
counties, seventy-one boys anc
girls. Ten local leaders, ten coun.
ty leaders and thirteen staff mem.
bers participated. There were also
three people from Saskatchewan
an IFYE delegate from Jordan
Iran, Egypt, and Turkey.
There were five workshops al
Camp which were range conser-
walton, wildlife management, wa
tershed management, exploring
the insect world, and Geology and
soil formation. Each person picked
one of these shops to work in.
was in the insect shop with MIR.
M. P. Jones as my teacher. !
learned many things in this shop.
Three quarter of all animal
life on earth are insects and they
outweigh all other matter of the
land animals. Out of eighty-five
thousand kinds of insects in the
United States, ten thousand are
considered enemies. Each year
more trees are lost by insects than
destroyed by fire.
Insects inhabited the earth
more than two hundred and fifty
years ago. The first flight on earth
was probably made by insects.
Honey bees would have to trav-
ell a distance equal to twice around
the world to make me pound of
honey.
We also learned that one pair
of houseflies and their progeny,
if all survived, could produce one
hundred and ninety-one q%uintril-
ion youngsters in a single season..
These would weigh nine and a
half trillion tons.
The four delegates from differ
ent countries gave talks on their
countries. From DR.. Ismail Ba-
shak's talk on Turkey / learned
that their main crops are: vege-
tables, fruits, cotton, rice, wheat,
barley, rye and corn. They raise
sheep and cattle, too. Most of the
farmers live in villages and go
out to their fields every day. The
transportation is by highways and
bicycles.
Abel Shadi gave us a talk on
his country, which is Egypt. In
Egypt, no one has nor than two
hundred acres of land or less than
five acres Their chief o are
cotton, wheat and orn They raise
four crops a year.
Marjid Yaghoub told US that
Iran DIETER known as Persia) has
a population Of twenty-one million
people. Persia is six times larger
than Montana. Their main crops
are cotton. wheat, barley, tea
rice and fruit. They have fish,
lots OF sheep, and are second In

the nation for oil. Their climate
is hot and they have sixteen inch
es of rain per year.
The delegate from Jordan was
Salah Yacoub. He told us that wa
ter is carrying much of their soil
away so they are planting fruit
trees which keep the soil from
washing. The insects eat their
fruit and vegetables so they have
to spray. They have All clubs,
too. Each member has one pro-
ject and their uniforms are like
our scout uniforms. They have
IA years of schooling in Jordan.
I really had a good time and
learned a lot about conservation
and its importance to us. / feel
that this camp was very worth
while. I also want to take this
opportunity to thank everyone who
made it possible for me to attend
this camp.

O111ce OF the secretary

July II, 1856
Honorable Mike Mansfield
United States Senate
Dear Senator Mansfield:
Reference is made to your let
ter of July 10 enclosing a tele-
gram you received from State
Senator George McKenna, and
State Representative Archie Nc
Innis, Geyser, Montana, concern
ing drought conditions in Judith
Basin County. The telegram from
the Board of County Commission
ers, State Senator Kenneth Cole,
and State Representative M. N.
Gershmel, Winnett, Montana, con-
corning the grasshopper situation,
that you referred to us, will be
answered in a separate letter fol-
lowing a study of the problems
involved.
The President on July IA de-
termined that a major disaster
o~ccasioned by drought exists in
Montana. Promptly thereafter the
Secretary of Agriculture design
ated three counties as being the
areas within the State where such
disaster conditions exist.
After reviewing all of the data
assembled by and available to
the Department, it is the opinion
of the Department that drought
conditions in Judith Basin county
were not at this time of sufficient
severity to justify a grazing au-
thorization under the Soil Bank
Act or a designation as a major
disaster area.
In keeping with Secretary Ben
sons desires, the Department will
continue to closely follow the
drought situation in the State Of
We r returning the enclos-
lres submitted with your letter.
