And now that there is financial
assistance through the ASC il
practically behooves us to or
ganize a weed control district.
Fertilizer Recommendations
For the past couple of weeks
we have had numerous inquiries
on fertilizer recommendations for
Richland county. Our office has
two excellent bulletins illustrat-
ing the recommended amount and
type of fertilizer to use. They are
recommended seed list and circu-
lar 262.
On dryland in eastern Montana
straight phosphate is recommend
ed for most small grains. Apply
ing 25-40 pounds Of superphos-
phate has given good returns.
With corn on dryland a mixture
of nitrogen and phosphate appears
to be helpful.
Recommendations for alfalfa
on dryland is 40-80 pounds of
superphosphate on established
stands. For additional information
on fertilizer obtain the above
mention bulletins or contact DR..

duced IA pounds.
Lamb feeders do not discrimi-
nate against twins or singles. On
concentrated feed there is very
little difference on which will
fatten the faster. But the man
who sells twins is making more
profit per eve and that is gen.
orally why he is in the sheep
business. To make the most money
per eve.
Weed Control Payments
The Agriculture Sterilization
committee has announced that
farmers in Montana may receive
payments for noxious weed con-
troll.
However, in order for the ASC
to make these payments on or
ganized weed district must be
established in the county. For the
past several years attempts have
been made to organize a weed
district in Richland county but
without much success. Now, if
such a district were established
you as a farmer would be able
to receive payments entirely out
of your pocket.
Petitions are now being cir
culated in hopes that this time a
weed district will be the result
of much work. If it is defeated
this time it will probably take
several years before enough in
terest can be obtained to attempt
to establish a district.

"Our American Heritaren

A boy OF girl born in the
United States is a fortunate indi-
vidual, blessed with a rich heri-
tage and many opportunities. The
right of free speech, freedom of
the press, and peaceful assembly,
are very important. But just as
important are their homes, free
schools, churches and the right to
choose their own occupations.
Homes, schools and churches
have many aims in common. They
all try to help each citizen to
grow in understanding, truth and
wisdom. They help to make a
citizen who will be a credit to
his country and to his God. They
try to make him a happy, healthy
citizen from childhood to old age.
Today the American home has
changed from a fanny which took
care Of its own needs to a home
where machines do most of the
work. However, the duty of the
home is the same. The home
must still take care of boys and
girls SO they will grow up with
strong, healthy bodies. They must
teach the difference between
right and wrong and how to live
happily with others.
The church is very important
in the growth of a citizen. There
are many churches. The members
of every church have helped the
United States to fight for liber-
ty. They have also helped the
nation to progress in times of
peace. All churches and all re-
ligious faiths should work to-
gether for the betterment of the
people and of the nation. The
people Of the United States are
allowed to build any kind of
church they choose. They are al
lowed to worship in that church
in any manner they desire. The
government does not decide which
church the citizens shall Join. It
does not support any church
through taxation.
One of the greatest h~eritages
is free education for all. This
has not always been true. The
people realized that if the Unit
ed States was to be governed
by the people; the people must
be educated. This idea grew until
today, every boy and girl in
America can attend a free publ
lie school, which is supported
by taxes. The public school sys-
of our nation is the largest
IN the world. In these modern
schools the pupils learn to do

NATIONAL HON FACTS: Did you know
that your VIEW. National Home is the largest
private program operating in the state OF Michi-
gan? The Home encompasses $40 acres Of farm,
pasture and orchard land. This last fall the ap-
proximate 100 acres of orchard yielded over u.s.
900 bushels of apples, 400 bushels of pears and
800 bushels Of peaches. Our herd of Holstein
cows produces over 1900 pounds Of milk a day.
We plan to increase the milking herd to 80 cows
soon, thus increasing milk production to well
over a ton a day! We have, on our poultry
farm, nearly 1000 laying hens producing many
cases of eggs each week. And all this is in
addition to and subordinate to our primary
task of caring for $50 children in individual
housing units on a spacious, suburban-like
campus.-From Nat. VIEW. Magazine, April

Our American Heritage"

An American citizen is one of
the most fortunate persons in
the world. To him has been given
a rich heritage.
America is a rich country in
natural resources such as: water,
soil, sunshine, air, minerals, for
ests and wildlife. The greatest of
all natural resources is its people.
America has many great artists,
singers, scientists and inventors.
Probably we cannot be any Of
these, but we can be a loyal
upright citizen. Our constitution
has given us freedom of the
press, freedom of speech and
freedom of assembly. We have
other things that are important
also, such as our homes, free
schools, religion, and the right to
choose our own occupations.
Home life has changed thru
the years, but the home still is
very important. 1t must take care
of the boy and girl, SO they will
be healthy and strong. They are

right and wrong, and to live
peaceably and happily with 9TH
ers. Our democracy believes that
everyone should have the oppor-
tunity to live happy, normal, and
useful lives. The government tries
to help families who are poor, by
giving them work and minimum
wages. 1t also established better
housing projects. These things all
help, but the best solution for
better homes and better citizens
is education.
Boys and girls Of the United
States can go to free schools. If
the people are to rule they must
be educated. The schools in the
United States are supported by
taxes. We have the largest school
system in the world.
People in the United States can
go to any church they choose, and
worship as they please. All re-
ligions try to teach people to
live better lives and be honest
and courageous. There should be
no bitterness or i'll feeling among
the different churches. The men,
bers of every church have helped
the United States fight for iber-
ty and peace. All churches and
religions should work together
for the betterment of the people.
In America people have the
right to choose their own occu-
patton. In many other countries
the children must follow the
same occupation as their fathers.
In the United States workers may
also organize into unions which
try to improve working condi-
tons. People in some countries
are not allowed to do this.
So we find that our American
heritage has been given as a gift
to us to preserve and pass down
to the coming generations. In this
way "the government of the peo-
pie, by the people and for the
people shall not perish from the
earth"

tuition was written by brilliant
men. But in these last two hum
dred years we have had men
just as intelligent to keep this
Constitution a document for all
America to live by.
There is another privilege we
have, which can also be thought
Of as a duty. That is the right to
vote, and to vote intelligently.
Everyone over the age of 20
should vote. For the United
States, a democracy, is today the
leader of the free world.
Many Americans do not prize
their right to vote as highly as
they should. We who are not old
enough to vote can help make
The Sidney herald., 1957-04-11

the spirit of democracy stronger
in America by being the means
of getting others out to vote. We
can also stress the importance Of
knowing the candidates and the
issues they favor. II a voter Is
not well informed, he cannot
vote intelligently.
II it were not for brave men
ready and willing to fight, our be-
loved home land might too be
under the Communist dictators.
Because we have fought long and
hard our America can truthfully
be called the land Of the free
and the home of the brave.

Our american heritage"
Our American Heritage is
something we cannot afford to
lose under any circumstances.
Our forefathers fought long hard
battles to gain for us the free
dom we as citizens should sin
cerely appreciate and preserve.
We are allowed to worship as
we please and every American
man, woman, and child should
go to church every Sunday, as
thanksgiving for this, and other
priceless treasures.
Everyone living in America has
the privilege of printing and
speaking whatever he chooses.
In Communist countries for in
stance the majority Of the people
have no freedom. Everyone is
told just what to do by the die
tators. In our country we have
the right to make suggestions
about how we want things done.
Where in Communist countries no
one dares to suggest anything,
but must do what others direct.
We really don't realize how for
tunate we are, here in a country
where there is no real suffering.
There is another thing we
hardly ever think of as a free
dom, and that is that everyone
is allowed to take up the pro-
fession he wants. Everyone usu-
ally gets advice from parents,
teachers, a pastor or someone
else, but nevertheless the de-
cision in the end is their own.
Each may choose his own career.
All these privileges are stated
in our constitution. This consti-
The Sidney herald., 1957-04-11

many things. Each year the
schools grow and improve.
Another great heritage is the
right to choose ones occupation.
Young people do not have to
follow the same occupation as
their parents, as boys and girls
do in many lands. In America
workers may organize into unions.
In some countries workers are not
allowed to do this.
When our country was formed,
the Preamble to the Declaration
of independence stated the fol-
lowing facts which are still true
today: eve hold these truths to
be self-evident: that all men are
created equal; that they are en-
dowed by their creator with GER
tain p~nalienable rights; that
among these are Life, Liberty
and Pursuit of Happiness"

LOCAL AUXILIARY l AIDS IN GIFT
 PROBLEM FOR VETS

Shopping for Christmas gifts for families at home is no prob lem for disabled war veterans in the veterans hospitals throughout the country, according to Mrs. Bess Dugas, rehabilitation chair man of the Matanuska Valley Unit No. IS of the American Le- zion Auxiliary. In nearly every hospital where veterans are under treatment a Christmas gift shop is operated by the Auxiliary, stocked with gift articles donat- ed by local and state groups of the nearly one million women organization.
 The Auxiliary's gift shop ac- tivity is expected to be even lar ger this year than last year when 218 shops were operated at cost of $365,O0O," Mrs. Dugas said More than 150,000 sick and disabled veterans were enabled to send gifts home to their fam lilies by the gift shop program. Tn addition to supplying the gift articles to the veterans without charge, the Auxiliary wraps and pays the postage on the gifts.
 The purpose of the shops is to give the hospitalized veterans many of whom are without funds, share in the joy of Christmas giving" she explain ed. The Auxiliary always has distributed gifts to the patients in the hospitals at Christmas time, but we found they receive greater enjoyment from sending gifts to others than receiving gifts themselves. From a small beginning in one hospital num- Der of years ago, these shops have increased in numbers each year until now they reach nearly all veterans who must spend Christ mas in hospital.
 The shops, operated by Auxil- iary volunteers, are set up in spare room in the hospital, gaily decorated and with a wide var iety of gifts attractively display ed. Patients who can leave their beds come to the shop, many on crutches or in wheel chairs, and make their gift selections. For those confined to bed, Auxiliary workers take hospital carts load

Good Relationship?

N10Od heldLlOnSllp.
 In attending the Back to school night" we. found it to be enjoyable and interesting. MT. Smiths invitation to visit often in order to create good relation ship between faculty and parents, was well received and appreciat- ed. At this point I am confused The school pictures are completed and available. We find we can- not buy few of each child, but must purchase the set at cost of $2.50 which is reasonable enough if you have a small num- Der of students, in our case, and I'm sure in many others, it ceas- es to be reasonable. It seems to me a rather cruel and thosEgaS- less plan as if one can't afford Che complete set they will be des- &rOyed.
 In this approaching season of Hove and good wilr' I find my --good relationship feeling bat ting zero, in fact I don't even Feel the least bit chummy and it will take several more 'back to school nights" to feel a little as M did.

'6 Driver Training
 Gar Turned Over 10
 School by Hartley

Hartley Motors, Inc. of Palmer for the second year has made available to the Palmer High School driver training class a new Ford sedan. The four-door 1858 Custom 300 car has stand ard transmission with dual con- trols and is in the school colors of blue and white. The vehicle will soon be familiar sight on the streets of Palmer with stu dents at the controls under the training of John Schreiber, dri- yer training instructor.
 In announcing the car delivery William Zahradnicek, school SUD- erintendent, pointed out that the driver training course offers an opportunity to young people to learn not only how to properly drive a car, but the mechanics of the machine and Territorial driv- ing laws. The course offers many advantages to students 16 years or older many of whom do not have an opportunity to learn to drive at home parents and stu dents look forward to the chance for the student to receive quail fled instruction-students who successfully complete the course are eligible for lower car insur- ance rates-police officials state they find the young driver who has completed a driver training course to be better driver; they have less trouble passing their driver tests, and know more about their cars than young peo- pie who have not taken the course.
 The driver training course in the local high school had been sought for many years by the Palmer P-TA and their moral support, said Zahradnicek, has more than paid off in the driv- CT training program we now have.
 The new Ford which has been made available to the high school IS a donation of Hartley Motors, Inc. The school pays only for the insurance and cost of opera ion.

ed with gift articles to the bed sides. 1t is a large-scale operation requiring the work of many thou sands of volunteers from among the Auxiliary's nearly one mil lion members.
 Locally the Auxiliary is com pleting a large box of gift items which they will send to the VA hospital, American Lake Hospital, in Tacoma, Washington. Each year the local Unit sends a num- Der of gift items to this particu- lar hospital for the use of vet eranS.
