A SAFETY REMINDER

If you're using irrigation pumps
on your farm, place a shield over
the pump before it's too late
Most pumps are driven by belts
or a power shaft and may lack
adequate protection.
Ar unshielded pump is danger
Gus because you become SO famil-
lar with it that you forget it can
harm you. And besides, we're all
guilty of thinking accidents al
ways happen to the other fellow.
Don't take a chance. Set the
pace for your community and
get that pump shielded now.

AGRICULTURE U

-Four major agriculture tours
were held in Richland County this
past week. The first one, held on
Tuesday, was the annual summer
tour and meeting of the Eastern
Montana Branch Experiment Sta
ton advisory committee. Two
farmers from each of the eleven
counties in eastern Montana served
by the Station, along with the
county Extensions agents from
each Of the eleven counties, meet
twice a year to review Station
work and to make recommended
tionS for future experimental
work. The Experiment Station
staff, headed by Glenn Hartman,
superintendent, conducted the tour
of experimental work.
On Wednesday, a group of Jap
aneSe agricUlturiSts visited the
Eastern Montana Branch Expert
ment Station in relation to wheat
production and research.
Thursday the Richland County
Weed Control District held their
annual tour for agricultural
agency groups, commercial chemi-
cal concerns, and others particul-
arly interested in weed control. A
detailed account of this tour can
be found in the Weed District
News column written by Paul
Petrik, Jr. On Friday, the Rich
land County Soil Conservation
held their annual tour of the
various agricultural agencies
leaders working in the county.
Ministers of the various churches
in the county were also invited on
the tour this year. Soil conserva-
ton projects completed recently,
or those presently in the construc-
ton phase were viewed.
All tours were excellent and of
real value to those who attended.

CLEAN AND SPRAY
GRAIN BINS

It's best to apply an insect
spray several weeks before storing
grain, but it is also better to do
it late than not at all. Insects
won't be killed unless spray gets
into cracks and crevices. First
clean old grain and dust out of the
bin completely before treating
with an insecticide.
Chemicals that give good results
and that are approved as insecti-
cides for use in grain bins are
m~alathion, methoxychlor which
are easy and safe to use. Mix one
pint of a $40 malathion with
three gallons of water, or use one
quart of a $50 emulsion of
mehtoxychlor or three-fourths
pound of the wettable powder
with three gallons of water. Spray
the solution on the walls to the
point of runoff.

FRUIT STAINS

DASAI AlAG AlGdLS T6Sl fruits,
and to any mother that means
trouble. There are so many fruit
stains that just don't come out in
the wash.
When any fruit juice is spilled
on a fabric. it's a good idea ia
sponge the spot Immediately with
cold water. Some fruit Juices, cit
u among them, are invisible on
the fabric after they dry, but turn
yellow on aging or heating. This
yellow stain is generally difficult
to remove.
Stains on washable articles
should be soaked in cool water for
80 minutes or longer. Some of
these stains require an over
night soaking. If the stain remains
after SpOnging or soaking, work a
detergent into it, and then rinse.
Also sponge the stain of a non
washable article with cool water.
Or force cool water through the
stain with a small syringe, using
a sponge under the stain to absorb
the water. If the stain remains,
rub detergent on it and work. the
detergent into the fabric. Then
rinse.
A final SpOnging with alcohol
helps to remove the detergent and
dry the fabric more quickly. But
test alcohol on the fabric first to
be sure it doesn't affect the dye.
And dilute alcohol with two parts
of water before using it on acetate.
If the stain still persists, use a
chlorine or sodium perborate
bleach. However, don't use chlor-
me bleacheS on synthetic fabrics
or natural fiber fabrics which
have been treated with a special
finish.
And, if it's safe for the fabric,
try boiling water. Pour it through
the spot from a height of one to
three feet.

Wife Invented
Attacks, Says
Finch Lawyer

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 2 (AP)
The defense said it would
utter its last word at the Finch
murder trial today after a part
ing playback of the big scene:
The death of Mrs. Barbara Jean
Finch.
Defense Attorney Grant B.
Cooper approached the climax
of his exhaustive summation
yesterday by arguing:
/. That Mrs. Finch invented
stories of being attacked by
her doctor husband simply to
get the doctor lover a barrell'
and to get more money out
Of the divorce she had pending
Q. That there was no con-
spiracy to kill Mrs. Finch and
even if there had been-what
finally happened was an acci-
dent.
8. That Marie Anne Lidholm,
the Finch housemaid who testi-
fed for the prosecution, is a
sweet and wholesome girl,
but not necessarily an entirely
credible witness.
At issue in the two-month-
old trial is whether DR.. R. Ber-
nard Finch, AZ, and his 23-
year-old mistress, Carole Treg-
of, are guilty of conspiracy and
murder in the shooting of &C.
year-old Mrs. Finch last
July 18.
Mr.. Cooper brought out that
Mrs. Finch's attorney, Joseph
Forno, has testified that Mrs.
Finch told him her husband
beat her with a gun May Is.
And Miss Lidholm has testified,
Mr.. Cooper said, that Mrs.
Finch told her the doctor
threatened to put her in a car
and push it over a cliff.
Yet when Mrs. Finch later
filed for divorce, Mr.. Cooper
said, she made no mention of
a gun beating or of threat 10
dump her of a cliff.
In fact, Mr.. Cooper said,
when police came to the Finch
home June Is to investigate a
domestic squabble, Mrs. Finch
told them the doctor owned a

maintains. there is nothing left
of the prosecution case. y
Mr.. Cooper said Miss Lid
holm. a domestic worker from
Sweden, was influenced by
sympathy for her dead mis-
treSs when she testified. Miss
Lidholm told "a different
stories of l8 incidents, Mr..
Cooper said.
The estimate now is that the
case will reach the jury late
this week or early next week.

Finch and Miss Tregoff paid a
Minneapolis convict, John Pat
rick Cody, to murder Mrs,
Finch,
Mr.. Cooper argued that If
there was a conspiracy-which
he denied-the doctor pursued
fresh and independent" ac-
ton the night his wife was
killed by a gun he held. But
Mr.. Cooper says this shooting
which occurred outside the
luxurious Finch home-was an
accident. Consequently, he

threaten her"
Generally" Mr.. Cooper said,
when you get down to it
it's important to women to get
their just deserts in dollars and
cents Gin a divorce action.
Mrs. Finch had been
through a divorce case before
(she had a previous husband)
and she was anxious apparently
to get as much money as she
could"

BY JAY CARMODY
Drama Critic Of The Star

A white convertible is
something we never thought
of as an adjunct to a drama
reviewers meditations until
the other night.
Yet, there it was gliding,
top down, like a ghost car
through the darkness and
providing it's driver with
some of the most pleasant
thoughts he has had in
months.
All the theater needs, it
suddenly occurred to the man
behind the wheel, is a living
playwright or two who can
write more like the late Jean
Giraudoux.
How did M. Giraudoux
write?
Well, as it had just been
delightfully."- reaffirmed by the
sight of his "Elektra," as a
brilliant, intelligent member
of the species more interested
in the human condition than
the pain within his own
psyche. From this detached
viewpoint. so unlike say those
of Tennessee Williams and
William Inge, to mention a
contemporary pair, Giraudoux
in "Elektra" shows how wisely
and cheerfully a classic
tragedy can be turned into a
brilliant philosophic comedy.
The Sick Remembered
All the sick, angry and
hurt young men never seemed
as shriveled as at that mo-
ment nor, more irritatingly
for a few minutes. the thea
ter which they SO dominate
around the world today. Let
them take their miSeries to
their analysts. M. Giraudoux's
enthusiast thought, instead
of trying to infect the rest
of us.
Or, if that is too harsh, let
them learn to write of misery
in social terms and as cheer
fully as NJ. Giraudoux does.
In "Elektra," the late
French diplomat -dramatist
deals with one of the sickest
girls in dramatic history.
Never for moment does he
deny that she is a psychic
mess and with every good
reason. He feels compassion
for her, indeed for all the poor
