Only IS Turn Out
For Football At
Southern High

Coach Dick Travis expressed a
great deal of concern as only 35
boys reported for initial workouts
for the coming football season at
Southern High School, Wednesday
morning. A possible reason for the
poor turnout could be due to the
fact that a great many boys are
still working on the farm. Travis
emphasized the importance of all
boys reporting as soon as possible
Following brief workout on
Wednesday morning, all boys were
given a physical examination by
DR.. Arthur F. Jones Thursdays

ditioning exercises. Travis indi-
Gated that it would be a week or
ten days before any scrimmagc scs-

Drying Kiln For
County Suggested

The possibility of establishing a
drying kiln for timber, and the in
creased utilization of wood were
discussed at two related meetings
last Thursday night at the William
James hotel in Oakland
Charles Lockard, chief of the For
est Utilization Service at the Allie
gheny Forest Experiment Station
of the U. S. Forest Service Upper
Darby. Pa, first talked with the
Garrett County Forestry Board at
that groups annual dinner meeting
In his remarks to the board
Lockard emphasized new industries
which would utilize the cOuntys
supply of wood more effectively. He
said there is a sellers market for
pressed wood used i'm furniture
stock. This pressed wood is pri-
marily waste under present usage
Lockard also suggested the pos
sibility of charcoal production, OBJ
serving that Grantsville already
has new industry which treats
charcoal briquets with a flammable
material and packages them for a
specialized trade.
At the second meeting four
principal sawmill operators of the
county were told about the advan-
tages available to them from the
establishment of drying kiln in
their own county The operators
on hand were c. c. Mason, Oak
land; Virgil Steyer, Steyer, How
ard Petit, Grantsville; and Earl
Pritts, Blaine, w. Va.
Under present arrangements the
timber is shipped out of state to
other areas where drying kilns are
available and the final stages of
the lumber manufacture are con-
Guided outside of the county.
A drying kiln to serve the needs
of the county timber could handle
about five million board feet an
nually, about 80 percent of the an
nual cut in this county.
The drying operation, which re
duccs the moisture content of the
wood varies with the thickness of
the wood and the kind of tree. It
may take anywhere from six to IS
days to kiln-dry the wood Lockard
estimated that about 30 charges or
loads of timber could be placed in
the kiln each year.
No final decision was expected
at the meeting 1t was designed
more to give the county timber
men ideas that might be developed
in future months
Among those on hand besides the
sawmill operators were II. {.
Buckingham, state forester; Will
liam H. Johnson, district forester;
William Heston, kiln engineer for
the Moore Kiln company, PunXsu-
tawney, Pa: Donald Holland, Fair
mont, w. Va, forester for Monon-
gahela Power company; Joseph

Bank, Grantsville, and president

Board.

That would explain why Manning

why he goes out every night, and
why he secretly returns, an event
marked by the dimming of the gas

Minor roles of housemaids,
played by Suzanne Oglcsby and

All pass
Of course this is all to the good.
But it is by no means the whole
story. 1t is still true that bridge
is played by people, not by ma
chimes. And while you may not
be able to fool a machine, i know
that you can sometimes fool peo-
pie.
In theory you could find two
players today who had read the
same textbooks, taken the same
number of lessons from teachers
of equal ability and played the
same number of rubbers. One
might be a rather consistent
loser while the other emerged
victorious more often than not.
How could this be? Very prob
ably the answer is that our hero,
the winner. plays the people as
well as the cards. He employs
winning tactics, he has q knowl-
edge Of the psychology of the
game and he has mastered the
art Of instruction.
In today's deal MIR. Abel led
the queen of diamonds and
dummy's king won. With three
likely spade losers. it appeared
that the only chance for the con-
tract was a successful heart
f1nesSe. Mr.. Dale thought he
could add another chance. This
second chance was Mr.. Abel.
At trick two he cashed dunn
my's ace of diamonds and the
discard from his hand was the
seven Of clubs. Next came the
heart f1nesse and Mr.. Abel won
with the king. A spade switch
at this point would have been
fatal to the contract, but he
could not be expected to know
that. You can't blame him too
much for returning the 10 of
clubs. There is a strong urge
on the part of most defenders to
try to cash tricks in suit from
which declarer is discarding.
Mr.. Dale won the club with the
ace. cashed the ace of hearts, led
the queen of clubs and followed
with trump lead to dummy.
When the clubs broke 3-3 he got
two spade discards to wrap UP
the contract.

Montana in Strategic Position
With the right kind of hogs and small
grains for feed, Montanans are in a strate-
gic position for capturing a premium, on
top quality pork products, which the Cana
dams are now taking. First the west coast
market is pork deficit area closer to Mon
tana than to other producing areas. Already
thousands of carloads of us. hogs pass each
year through Montana to the Pacific North
west market. These have been largely the
fat kind of hog yielding Wasty cuts which
consumers are rejecting in our stores
Second, good lean pork products will sell
anywhere at premium The Canadians are
showing this to us by selling SIS million
pounds of fresh and cured pork on U.S.
markets in each of the last two years. This
is equivalent to $4,000 hogs.
Time to Cut In
= If raised in Montana, instead of Canada,
this number of hogs would have eaten five
million dollars worth of barley Eat 81 per
busheD. At $25 per hog Figuring price
advantage over current seasonal lows for
superior quality these hogs would have
crossed minimum $8,750,000 to cover feed
and other production costs.
Is it not high time Montana's smaller
farms cut in on this source of income?

Higher Prices
At the end of the 1855 fall hog run, what
do you think the price differences were,
comparing US. with Canadian markets? At
Chicago the very top quality choice barrows
and gifts hit low of $11.75 per cwt in mid
December. The same week the top Canadian
grade most Canadian hogs are carcass
graded hit low which averaged $23 per
cwt. dressed without premium equal to

TNHE CANADIAN HOG producer is now
u reaping profits that are coming out of
the pockets of United States swine pro-
ducerS 1t is a matter of the bacon or meat
type hog versus the fat hog -
For proof read what the editor of Ca
madam farm paper had to say about the I'M
portance of hog quality to the Canadian
producer.
United States consumers are willing to paw
a substantial premium for pork products from
good Canadian hogs and for that reason, the I
heavy market runs in Canada have been bought
and processed. The cream of the crop goes into
this export trade but if we did not have this
market for choice cuts, hog prices would drop to
the equivalent of United States price levels
1T is because of the percentage of good hogs
coming to market that price collapse was pre-
vented during the latter months of 1855
Many hog raisers still claim that it does not
pay them to strive for Grade; but if all pro-
ducers adopted that attitude, pork consumption
at home would decline, on per capita basis
ana all worthwhile export outlets would be
closed"
Prefer Canadian Products
CanadaS worthwhile export market is
nov in the United States and it has deyel-
oped since the close of World War ii. This
growth has come about in spite of ample
supplies OF pork IN tnlS country. The rea-
son for the change is that consumers in our
country liked the Canadian product better
than our own. This is direct result of the
many years Canada has promoted the de-
velopment of hogs that would provide the
kind of meat most attractive to urban con-
SumerS.
There is no logical reason why U.S. hog
producers could not have enjoyed this adj
ditional income had they paid attention
to consumer preference trends. Nor is there
any reason why Montanans could not pro-
duce hogs comparable in every way to the
hogs of neighboring Alberta This province
produces more than one-fourth of Canada's
hogs in an environment tougher than Mon
tana's and with barley, oats and wheat as
the basic feed. Our state is producing an
