UNHANDY TELEPHONE

From Glendive Daily Ranger

In an unusual display of pa
tience, we have reserved COM
ment on the new telephone di-
rectory provided last September to
telephone customers in this area.
Quite frankly, we put the big
book to a four month test to see
if the large size would grow on
us. Unfortunately, it didn't.
One of the ideas behind the big
directory, which as everybody
knows includes Glendive, Miles
City and nine other communities
was to draw attention to the par
ficular area. You would predict
that the large communities would
like such a directory because it
might help bring business in. This
has not taken place we think, be-
cause most people firmly believe
that where possible they should do
business in their home community
where everybody benefits from it.
The new book is downright un-
handy. We tried several methods
to make it flop open to the Glen
dive section but none were salts
factory. First we clipped the cor
ner of all pages before Glendive.
That became ineffective when
the other corners wre tattered.
Then the bank gave us a cover
which holds all pages aside ex-
cept the Glendive section. This
worked fairly well to convert the
book to the previous type except
when we wanted to look in the
yellow pages or for the police sta
ton number.
Our basic objection to the ar
rangement is that it completely
destroys the usefulness of the
classified section. It's utter con-
fusion to look for a number
there. Names of the towns where
the businesses are located are
much too light for quick reference.
We've given the new directory
a fair trial and still don't like
it. Give us back the old style.

OUTER A TRAVEL.

Recent surveys have shown that
the population of the world is in
creasing by some 43,000,0 900 citi-
zenS a year. The boom in world
population began after World War
ii and is continuing steadily.
Because there are no longer
many large areas of productive
land open for migration, and be-
cause the world has shrunk and
population increased daily, a
problem is to be faced, eventually,
concerning the feeding, clothing
and housing of our steadily in
~creasing population.
Birth rates, of course, are the
highest in under-developed coun-
tries, where people are never adj
equately fed, clothed or sheltered.
In fact, it is reported that more
than half the people on earth to-
day r hungry.
Unless scientific and technolog-
ical Improvements can keep pace,
and then some, with the growing
population, millions and millions
VI 0QOAOo oAAo JOaAt6 PNORA0 wall
continue to go hungry, and the
figure might even increase. This
aggravates an already pressing
problem, especially in
countries like China and India.
All of which brings US around
to the question of outer space.
There are some who wonder why
and defense officials are
making plans to travel to outer
space. In time it may be that we
will need the undeveloped lands
productive surface areas of
some of the planets that surround
us.
No one can answer this question
finality until outer space is
explored and that is the reason
why the scientists of the world,
and some of the worlds humani-
tarians, are genuinely interested
n outer space travel for reasons
connected with our sharply-in-
,reasing population.

THE WAR


One of the wars which is now
under way, between the United
States and the Soviet Union, is the
war to control the weather. The
actual fighting cannot be said to
have broken out but it is known
that weather scientists in each
country T hoping to unravel the
secrets about the weather first -
and control it first.
Two main avenues of approach
are known, and there may be
many others. One of the forms of
human control might come in the
form of evaporation. If evapora-
ton could be controlled, then the
amount of precipitation could be
controlled.
The nation which controls pre-
cipitation, or which can deny it
to the other, holds a powerful
trump card in any prolonged con-
flict.
Another approach concerns the
storage of heat. There are reports
that Soviet scientists have made
some progress toward the storage
of heat from the sun in particles
particularly receptive to sunlight
and heat. The theory is that these
particles would be scattered in the
polar regions and gradually melt
the ice cap.
This would result in new sea-
coast lines, the inundation of some
port cities, and the moving of the
vegetation line northward - if
carried out successfully on a large
space for a period of time.
Nuclear weapons might also af-
feet the weather, according to
some experts.
Thus there are several ap-
proaches to the problem, and sci
entists of the leading countries are
undoubtedly engaged in something
of a race to control the weather.
But, so far, and this is rather re-

New Hardy Fruit Varieties

Nine new varieties of fruits es-
pecially adapted to Northern
Great Plains conditions have been
developed by the USDA's North
ern Great Plains Field Station at
Mandan, North Dakota.
No trees of these varieties are
available as yet, the USDA re-
ports, but nurserymen who want
scions or budsticks of the new
fruit may obtain them by writing
the Mandan station.
The new varieties include four
apples, two plums, two sandcher-
ry plums and one apricot. All
have been developed for winter
hardness.
The apple varieties are Gar
rison, a cross between Gutenberg
(Duchess) and Stalking Delicious;
Thorberg, also of Gutenberg
Stalking Delicious parentage;
Peace Garden, which is of Malin-
da Gutenberg parentage; and Kill
land, a McIntosh-Dolg cross.
Plum varieties are Gracious and
Chinook. Both ripen in late Au-
gust.
The sandcherry plum varieties
are called Sacagawea and Hia-
watha. Both are Seeding hybrids
of the Sapa variety.
Mantoy is the name Of the new
apricot variety and it was de-
rived from seed obtained from
Manchuria by USDA plant ex-
plorers in 1925.

Milk Tastes Better
Ice Cold

Ice Cold
If you want your family to
enjoy milk at its best, keep the
container closed in storage, keep
it in a dark place and pour 1t
promptly at meal time.
Ice cold milk has a refreshing
flavor - that's the reason why it
should be kept cold until poured
for immediate use. Too often it's
poured, then allowed to warm
in the glass before it's used.
Bottled milk should stay sweet
and fresh tasting five days or
more, if you handle it correctly.
Here's a point to keep in mind
the flavor of milk in the glass
containers is hurt by sunlight, as
is also some of the vitamin con-
tent. This is the reason why dark
storage is recommended. Another
suggestion, don't mix new milk
with old unless you're ready to
use it right away.

Clean Seed?

Clean Seed?
Time.
Yes, that's what commercial
seed cleaners say they need to do
an honest to goodness job Of
cleaning seed. 1t takes time even
under the best of conditions. This
Is significant because commercial
plants clean more than 80 percent
Of our small grains.
Yet, drill box surveys show that
much improvement must be made
to win the war against weeds and
get the highest cash returns per
care.
To give cleaners the time they
need, begin now to have seed
cleaned for spring planting. The
reward will be good seed clean
ing and treatment and less seed
ing time delays. But, be certain
that the seed is suitable for clean
ing.
II seed is fouled with weed
seeds, dirt, stones, bird and rodent
droppings, 1t will be better to
buy good seed of an adapted va
riety.

Potatoes

Potatoes
Here's a calorie comparison that
may surprise you. A medium-siz-
ed potato boiled, pressure
cooked, or baked - provides only
about 100 calories, approximately
the same as a large apple or or
ange or half of, a large grapefruit,
says the u. S. Department of Ag-
riculture. It's the added fat or
gravy that can greatly increase
the calories in the potatoes serv-
ed. Of course, fried potatoes may
be two to four times as high in
calories as the same weight of
boiled, baked, or pressure-cook-
ed potatoes.
It's worth remembering too,
that potatoes offer more than
calories. In fact, potatoes give a
high return in food value for the
money spent on them. One medi-
um-sized potato can furnish as
much as one-fifth of the vitamin
c recommended for the daily diet,
and worthwhile amounts of two
important B vitamins u thia-
mine and niacin. That medium
sized potato also offers worth
while amounts of minerals -
iron, PHOSPHORUS, and potassium.
Of all the vegetables our food
markets offer, the potato has long
been and still is the most popu-
lar. Consumption of fresh pota-
toes in households averages about
5 to 6 potatoes per person per
week, according to the latest U.s.
DA survey.

~Homemaking Tips

aPJ
Ironing rick rack trim is easier
if you reverse the garment and
iron it on the wrong side. In this
way the iron won't catch the
points of the trim.
Extension specialists say that
drop cords with metal pull chain
sockets should be replaced with
ceiling fixtures of. porcelain or
plastic. The metal socket and pull
chain is particularly dangerous in
the basement. Here, wet floors in

shock, especially in the laundry
area.
It's a common belief that high
protein foods such as meat and
fish contain few calories; howev-
er, the number of calories provid-
ed by such foods depends on how
they're prepared. Broiled meats
will have fewer calories than

Machinery Repair Suggestions

While you are going over your
farm machinery this winter to get
it ready for spring and summer
work, take a little time to clean
off rusted metal parts. Agricul-
tural engineers say that rust is the
number one enemy of farm ma
chinery mainly because it
shortens the life of the equipment.
Steel wool, kerosene and elbow
grease are the main tools needed
for removing rust. Then protect
the metal parts to keep them free
of rust. Coating bright metal sur
faces such as moving parts and
surfaces used to work in the
ground and soil, with a rust in
hibitor or grease will protect
them. Other metal surfaces may
be painted. Zinc chromate paints
are effective as a primer coating
followed by implement enamel.

Purchase Fertilizer Early

Purchasing fertilizer supplies
well ahead Of the time they will
be needed is a good practice. For
one thing you are more likely to
get the kind you want than later
when the rush season is on. Fer
tilizer may be safety stored on
the farm if it is kept in a dry
place that is well protected from
the weather. Placing the lower
row of bags on wooden stringers
to keep the bags off the floor will
prevent moisture from working
into the fertilizer. 1t is also rec
commended that the bags be piled
no more than four or five bags
high.
