SNIPE HUNTERS
ENJOY OUTING


SNIPE HUNTERS
ENJOY OUTING
AS a pleasant although un-
profitable pastime, snipe hunt
ing has lost none of its charms.
Monday night some of the young
fellows of the city decided it was
just the season to make a big
haul, so they selected as their
guests Rev. c. j. Curtin and
Rev. Tom Wylie. Gordon Beagle
was positive that he knew just
where to locate the snipe and
the trip was made to the neigh
borhood of Coverings Grove
where they stationed the two
guests, Rev. Wylie holding the
sack and FIR. Curtin standing to
one side with a club with which
he was told to knock the snipes
in the head as they entered the
sack. A lantern was convenient
ly located SO the snipes could
see their way to the port of
entry. The young men started
on a long detour to drive the
elusive birds to be captured by
the hunters. AS the boys rounded
the hill and were lost to sight,
the hunters dropped the sack,
lantern and club and hastily re-
paired to the only two ears util-
lied in making the trip to the
hunting grounds. When the lads
reached the place where the
cars had been parked they found
no cars. At a late hour a posse
of young snipe hunters were
seen walking four abreast to-
wards town. Gordon says some
one double-crossed him and he
is looking for the varmit.

be serious. A good way to insure
against loss of cattle next winter
is to saw the straw and chaff
that goes with it during har-
vest.
Straw, provided the chaff
which has most of the feed
value, if saved, can substitute
for part of the hay Oh all of it.
Durum straw makes especially
good feed for cattle and, of
course, a lot of it is being raised
In the county this year with in
dications of fair yields of straw.
Straw has about the same heat
value as hay in keeping stock
warm. But it doesn't have nearly
enough proteins, minerals and
vitamins. These missing nutrients
can be provided by feeding some
good quality hay with the straw
or concentrates.
At the North Montana Branch
station at Havre, cows wintered
as well on half straw and half
alfalfa hay as they did on alfalfa
hay alone. Also at Havre, cows
maintained their weight for
about four months during Sc
we're winters on barley and oat
straws. The straw was supple
mented with only five pounds
Of alfalfa hay per head daily.

Service Air Cleaner
Before You Combine
Take the air cleaner off your
combine engine and clean it out
before you start threshing this
season.
The air stacks and the air
cleaner body need a complete
house cleaning at least once a
year.
If you have not cleaned up
the air cleaner system on your
combine engine for a year or
two, dust, dirt, and chaff have
accumulated in the air line pipes.
This accumulation will eventual
ly restrict the flow of air to the
engine. When this happens, the
engine uses more fuel. !
The Sidney herald., 1956-08-09

Use a fuel soaked rag and a
rod or thin stick and ram rod
these pipes out much like you
would clean a rifle barrel.
Then take the air cleaner body
off the engine and slush it up
and down in a pail full of kero-
sene, diesel fuel, or cleaning
fluid. When you reasonable the
air cleaning system, inspect all
of the hose connections and the
clamps. If there are any dents
in the pipes, be sure to hammer
them out. You can't afford to
have air going into the engine
that has by-passed the cleaner
through a poor connection or
cracked hose or pipe.
A partially clogged air clean
er system on a combine engine
will make a "fuel hog" regard
less of how good a condition the
engine itself is in.
Care Needed When
Using Insecticides
Don't handle and apply insec-
ticides carelessly as there is a
definite health hazard in expos
ure to insect killers. Drift of
the spray may affect human
health.
With grasshopper control in
the state being stepped up at
this time, entomologists believe
human injury may also occur.
Grasshopper control chemicals
should be handled with "more
respect" than the usual chemicals
in weed control - but they're
safe if you use them properly.
Several precautionary measures
are stressed:
/. Avoid splitting any concen-
trated material on your skin. If
you do, wash Immediately with
large amounts of soap and wat
er. 2. Avoid spilling concentrated
on clothing. If you do,
battle and change clothes at
once. 3. When applying spray,
stay out of the mist at all times.
4. Change clothes Immediately
after finishing a job. 5. Never
smoke or eat while working with
insecticides. 6. Never keep in
secticides in unmarked contain
srs. Z. Always store insecticides
out of reach of children and
pets.
Usually the first symptoms of
exposure are headache and nau-
If either occurs while spray
leave the field Immediately;
change clothes and rest.
If symptoms do not leave in a
short time, see a physician. Ad-
vanced symptoms are convul-
;ions, which indicates an emer-
sency requiring medical attention
Immediately.
We cannot emphasize too
strongly that insecticides are
ooisons and must be used as
;uch.

Potomac Study
By JOHN w. sTEPP

A bilr authorizing a study OF
all the water resources use OF
the Potomac River basin today
was introduced by Senator But
Ter, Republican of Maryland.
The measure is similar to but
broader in scope than pending
legislation directed exclusively
at pollution abatement in the
Washington Metropolitan Area
The proposed study. for which
S425, 900 is authorized, would be
made by the Interstate Commits
sion on the Potomac River
Basin. The commission member
ship in its recent winter meet
ing declared overwhelmingly in
favor of a basin-wide survey Of
water resources.
Sewage Aid Proposed
Senator Buffers bill also pro-
vides for appropriation Of $40
million for immediate aid to
Washington area communities in
the construction Of sewage treat
ment plants. Funds from this
source would be available to the
Jurisdictions on a
matching basis, the Federal Gov
eminent supplying up to so per
cent of the cost Of each install
lation.
The United States Public
Health Service would issue these
grants. subject to approval of the
construction projects by the river
basin commission, and pending
completion of its water resources
investigation and recommends
lions.
These fund grant features
closely parallel provisions of a
bill submitted last month by
Representative Broyhill, Repub-
ucan OF virginia.
Full Study Stressed
Senator Butler emphasized the
need for a full and complete"
study leading to development OF
comprehensive master plan in
two parts. The first would be
designed to END" pollution of
the Potomac in the Washington
area. The second would en-
compass future water supply as
it affects communities depend
ent on the Potomac. general
pollution control, agricultural,
industrial and recreational needs.
The overall objective, the
Senator said, is the orderly de-
velopment and conservation OF
the basins water resources
Plans resulting from the study
would be submitted to the sig
natory bodies of the five-State
commission and TO Congress for
preparation of necessary legis-
lation..
OF the total survey fund au-
thorization $4,000 would be to
cover costs incurred by the in
dividual jurisdictions in supply
ing information for the study.

Missiles Get Top Priority,
Eisenhower Declares

President Eisenhower said
today the United States is Civ
ing top priority to development
of guided missiles but there are
limits to the number of scien-
fists available to do the job and
the channels they can follow at
one time.
Mr.. Eisenhower discussed the
missile program at news con-
ference amidst rumors that TIE
vor Gardner has resigned as
Assistant Secretary of the Air
Force for Research and Devel-
opment. Mr.. Gardner, who
scheduled his own news con-
ference late today. has been
dissatisfied with missile develop
ment,
"A reporter brought up the
subject of missiles-but not spe-
cifically Mr.. Gardner--at Mr..
Eisenhower news conference.
He asked the President to COM
ment on statements by two SEN
ators that the United States Is
behind the Soviet Union in mis-
sile development.
Mr.. Eisenhower replied that
he was surprised by the amount
OF information that Others get
that he doesn't.
Complete Priority
The President said there were
many varieties of missiles and
It would be idle to say that in
every single field we were ahead.
He said the Soviet Union may
be ahead of the United States
in some phases in this field but
the United States leads in others.
Guided missiles. he said. have
complete priority over every
other project of the Defense De-
partment
Mr.. Eisenhower said, however.
there is a limit to resources avail
able, He said there are only so
many scientists and only so
many channels for them to fol-
low. He said that one must not
try to develop all kinds of mis-
siles at the same time lest the
scientists get in each others way,
The President discoursed on
the horrors of warfare with
atomic missiles. ~ raid the
u..ited States has means C4 de-
livering them that cannot be
100 per cent interceptive.
When you talk ABOUT such a
development, the President con-
timed. you are not talking about
war-because war is a contest
but you are talking about race
suicide.
He said that Of course you
can't be complacent about these
things and guided missiles have
complete priority.

He recalled that in last
months budget message he re-
quested about $l.2 billion for
guided missiles. which was the
amount that he thought could
profitably be spent with the re-
sources and scientists now avail
able.
Mr.. Gardner headed back to
Washington this afternoon after
a trip TO Miami. Fla, where Sec
rotary of Defense Wilson is
vacationing. Mr.. Gardner visited
Mr.. Wilson yesterday. presum-
ably to discuss his resignation.
Mr.. Gardner sent word to re-
porters he would hold a press
conference later today. and best
Pentagon guesses were that he
would announce that his resig-
nation had been accepted. What
was more interesting was spec
ulation that he also would
criticize administration handling
of the guided missile program.
Mr.. Gardner is known to be-
lieve that scheduled missile de-
velopment is too little and too
slow. He said in a news con-
ference last summer that the Air
Force should ask for $l00 million
to 5000 million in supplemental
appropriations for missile de-
ivelopment in the current fiscal
year. His recommends ton,
when put both to former Air
Secretary Talbot and to present
Secretary Quarles, was rejected.
The Army and Navy also
have guided missile programs
and overlap in work of the three
services is reported also to be
one OF the reasons for Mr.. Gard
