year at the Wildcat helm, forecasts
a tight game but says his charges
will be well-prepared.
AS II stands now. Culton's main
problem will be in selecting II
boys to take the field for the
kickoff. He simply has a wealth
OF material at every position from
which TO choose.

gressed well, also.
At left halfback there's a bril-
liant runner In Junior Dave Henry.

CHAPEL HILL
CHAFF
BY Louis Graves

Wallace E. Caldwell tells
me of a queer gift that his
son Roberts family received
on their arrival in Karachi,
Pakistan, this summer. Bob,
as all of us call him, was
transferred to the u. S. En-
bassy there from the post
that he had held with the
Embassy in Copenhagen,
Denmark. When he and his
wife and two children alight-
ed from the plane at Kara
chi they were greeted by
the members of the Embas-
sy staff bearing two gifts.
One was a wreath of flow
ers. Nothing queer about
that. And to anybody who
had lived in Karachi there
was nothing queer about the
other one, but it would have
seemed queer in Copenhagen
and it seems queer to peo-
pie in our part of the world.
This was a giant thermos
bottle filled with boiled
water.
d Natives of Karachi have
built up an immunity which
protects them but if visit
ors from America or West
ern Europe drink unboiled
water they are apt to be
taken seriously i'll and may
die. There was no doubt
about the flowers being the
prettier of the gifts, but the
Caldwells know from their
reading and what travellers
had told them that the
thermos was a lot more i'm
portant.

Pete, one of the 1l-year-
old Ronman twins, has a

Whereas. 1t has been many
years since the citizens of Orange

cratic government to call another
such referendum.
"And whereas. the county'S eff

And whereas, the tax to be de-

that had been approved by the
commissioners since so many vital
needs were not met by 1t. lie was
particularly disturbed that a gross

allocated to school capital out

ficiency in the budget that he was
seeking means OF getting new

Board last Tuesday had on them

pleted a series of safflower grow
er meetings in Northeast Montana

the joint venture during the 1858

which were held in Sidney, Gull

Point, Glasgow, Glendive, Mon
tana, and Beach, and Williston,
N. D., about 500 of the farm
ers growing safflower for us at

was to explain theI method of
operating in the area and to give
farmers pointers on producing the
best safflower crop possible. DR..
Carl Claassen, president of Pacific
Oilseeds, Inc, Woodland, Cali
fornia, was the main speaker at
these meetings. DR.. Claassen has
been active in safflower develop
ment work during the past II

Weed District
Board Organizes

Richland County Weed District
supervisors, who e recently
appointed by the Board of County
Commissioners, held that initial
organizational meeting this past
week. Alfred Anderson of the
Sioux Pass community was elect
ed chairman by the board. Mr..
Anderson, former secretary of ag-
riculture for the state of Montana,
is we'll known locally for his or
ganizational ability with new ag-
riculture programs. Other mem
bers of the board are Volney An
derson, Sidney, and Pete J.. Ruff
fatto of Brockton. Dean David
son, Richland County Extension
Agent, will serve as secretary to
the board.
The Weed Board will meet with
both public and private groups
and agencies as soon as possible
to work out a coordinated weed
control program for the county
During the organizational phase,
il will be impossible for the dis
trict to engage in weed control
work on county roads etc, to any
extent due to the lack of equip
ment and personnel.
From the 81 other organized
weed districts in Montana the
board hopes to obtain as much
information as possible in orde
to profit by their experiences. P.
E. Heikes, Extension Weed Speci-
alist at Montana State College,
who is well versed in weed dis
trict operation in Montana, viii
meet with the board on March %
At the present time, approximate
ly one half of the county's lane
is the weed district. This includes
the irrigated valley and the major
share of the dryland area which
is titled. An enlargement can be
made of the present district by
submitting a petition signed by
the owners of 51l of the agricul-
tural land lying within the pro-
posed enlargement.

Richland County
Property
Assessments

New York - For the first time
since 1912, a full-scale survey of
property values has been made,
covering Richland county and the
other counties in the United
States.
1t was undertaken by the Bu-
e of the Census in connection
with its 1857 Census of Govern
ments. There is now available, as
a result, data on the 81 million
pieces of real estate listed on To-
cal tax rolls throughout the coun-
try.
In Richland county, it shows,
the assessed value of taxable
property the prior year was
$685. 900. This was not its true
market value but rather the tax
base to which local tax rates were
applied. Generally, realty is as

Two way radio costs about
