dropping back to 41c in 1861.
LESS THAN 10c AN ACRE
The schools cannot exist on such
widely fluctuating income. In what
was probably the fattest year in
Montana livestock history, 1858, the
4,1O8,2 1928 acres under grazing leases
returned the schools only $384,816.
Think of it, that is less than ten cents
an acre in this day and age, when
taxes alone ON private grazing lands
are so much more.
If Ralph Miracle and the group he
represents believe in the public school
system. they would be willing and
able to pay three dollars AUM which
would go long way in solving the
schools financial problems and at
the same time would allow the UNI
subsidized stockgrowers to compete;
or. is it the opinion of the reader
that the livestock industry is en-
titled to and should continue to be
subsidized by cheap state and federal
leases and permits at give-away
prices?
Among stockmen, there appears TO
be great indifference to range con-
servation. In 1889 the legislature
passed the Grassland Conservation
Act. Unfortunately the administra-
tion of this act was turned over to
the stocknien and county commission
ers. No one representing the schools
was given a voice in setting up good
grazing practices for protecting the
school lands. The result has been that
these sections have been shamefully
and many worn out. Con-
servation as far as grazing lands are
concerned is almost complete flop.
In fact there appears to be a con-
spiracy among stockmen to defeat
the purpose of conservation. If some
thing is not speedily done to change
conditions that have existed for the
past seventy years, Montana range
lands may become barren, unpro-
ductive country.

By FRANK TICE, Ovando

There has been much loose talk
around the state since the last session
of the legislature and again follow
| ing the legislative hearing and in
vestigation into the states grazing
leases.
1t appears that a very small in
crease in the AUM (animal unit a
month"; fees had miraculously been
passed over the protests of Ralph
Miracles and the subsidized segment
of the livestock industry.
If the reader will stop and look at
his tax statement, he will find that a
very large part of his taxes go to
support education. At the present
time the Legislature is having very
difficult time to raise sufficient funds
to meet the needs of our greatly in
creased school population.
The livestock industry up to the
time Montana became a state had the
use of her lush and plentiful range
land for free. The enabling act set
aside two sections in every township
for the benefit of the schools. Since
that time the subsidized segment of
the livestock industry has had the
use of much of these lands at price
far less than taxes. 1t does not seem
fair to the other stockmen who have
no leases to have to compete with
stockmen who receive subsidies from
the state and federal governments in
the form of low rental fees. To make
a long story shorter, owing to their
influence in the legislature through
the years, the subsidized segment of
the livestock industry has been cheat
ing the school children out of their
birthright, that is, a fair return from
the grazing rights on school lands.
In spite of what Ralph Miracle
says, the increase in fees granted by
the legislature was just token one,

It is hard to believe it is Christmas
Eve. The weather is warm and bright.
A light sweater is needed only in the
evenings. Day after tomorrow we
start our tour south. From then on
we won't have typewriter, and not
much if any time to ourselves to
write. but we will do our best. We
will send report ON the World Agri-
cultural Fair.
Standing here at our post in the
Farm Organization booth of the Am
riki Mela at the World Agricultural
Fair is like standing ON a ledge at
the very edge of the water watching
with interest and admiration the
colorful, beautiful, and the grotesque
fishes swimming by. Some look ia
miliar to US; others are strange and
exotic; some are very timid while
some are powerful and command
great respect.
Then suddenly a great wave en-
CULTS us and we are part of the
stream. We look at them and they
at us with no unfriendly curiosity. A
few are too astonished at our strange
ness to do anything but stare. An even
smaller number are frightened and
disappear quickly. But most are so
interested they must find out as much
as possible about us.
The fair-goers go by or stop to talk
in just such waves. BY the time they
reach our part of the American
Pavilion. they have already seen a
great deal and are quite tired and
inclined to hurry on through to the
exhibit. Or some-especially those
who aren't farmers-are impatient
to get to the atomic energy section.
