"0ld Joe" Defies
Man And Machine
On Alcun Highway

According to U. S. Fish and
Wildlife Service report "Old
Joe" thc name given certain
bull bison is still king of the
lonely Alaskan highways. The
release tells that "Joc's" latest
antagonist, Territorial police
cruiser, was demolished. AS he
had in all previous encounters
with the machine age, the shaggy
beast. fast becoming legendary
in the Far North, snorted de.
fiancc at the wrcckage and am
bled away in the SHOWS.
Other animals, lacking the
blocking-back qualities of Old
Joe, are hard hit by traffic on
Alaskan highways and railroad
tracks. The mortality rate among
moose is particularly high be-
cause of their stubborn refusal
to yield right of way to man. the
Service reported
To date there is no record that
Old Joe, the bison, has ever tried
his prOwcSs against a locomotive.
He seems to satisfy his ego by
confirming his immovablc abject

Noting that indications point
toward a record barley acreage
in Montana this year, Ralph D..
Mercer, extension agr0n0mist at
Montana State College. calls the
attention of farmers to the four
varieties recommended for use
in the state.
Prospective barley acreage this
year, he points out. is l,526 600
acres or 81 per cent more than
last year and 7 per cent above
the record high acreage in 1855.
Recommended for dryland pro.
ductiOn in all parts of the state
is the Titan variety while Com.
pana is recommended for growing
on dry land east of the continent
tai divide. For irrigated land,
the Vantage variety is recon-
mended although it will also do
we'll in dryland areas where the
rainfall is above average. a
fourth variety called llordford
is recommended mainly for hay
production in the intcr.m0untain
areas.
Common and approved seed of
these varieties is in good supply
in most parts Of Montana. Mcr-
Ger said. but growers may have
trouble in locating certified seed.
County extension agents. he
said. can provide information on
seed supplies as we'll as more dc.
tailed information on each of
the recommended barley varic.
ties.
Although much progress has
been made in developing new
chemicals and methods that will
control most of the weeds which
annually cost Montana farmers
millions of dollars. not as much
Roadway is being made in get.
ting these Developments put in.

extension weed specialist at

Surveys made over the state
he said. show that weeds are in.

from weeds is becoming greater.

The answer to this problem.

their small grain.
"All weeds known to exist in
Montana" the weed specialist
said, can be controlled effcc-

control. Although it costs more
to control weeds. it is going to
cost a lot more in the long run
to let them go uncontrolled. ("

does not mean that stock should
be turned loose on the pasture as

spring. Let the leaves get five to
six inches long before turning in
the stock. From then on for the
next three months the main OBJ.
Jcctivc is to see that growth does
not get ahead of the grazing use.
Any system that can be devils

crested whcatgrass during its
