Weaver pointed out. :,
'The nations population in.

Last Spring Freeze
Dates in Montana
By JOSEPH M. CAPRIO*

the last spring freeze throughout the
state is being conducted at the Mon
tana Agricultural Experiment Station,
BOzeman.
Detailed maps are being constructed
in order to show the wide variations
that may occur. The method of con-
Structing the maps is based On the OBJ
servation that the daytime maximum
temperature is much less variable than
the nighttime minimum temperature.
The range between maximum and
minimum temperature is character
istic of each particular site. When the
range from maximum to minimum is
large, the site is subject to freeze,
whereas small range between maxi
mum and minimum indicates rela-
lively low freeze-hazard area.
Correlation Found
It has been found that the date of
last freeze for locations with average
nighttime temperature drops of %
degrees F. and the average time when
the daytime maximum temperature
reaches 20 degrees F: occur on about
the same date. Since nighttime tenn
peratures are highly variable, while
daytime temperatures are relatively
much less variable, it is possible to
map the date when the average day
time maximum temperature reaches
20 degrees F. more accurately than the
nighttime condition.
A detailed map for every 100-foot-
elevation interval, from 1900 to 5000
feet, showing dates when the daytime
temperature reaches 20 degrees F. has
been prepared for the state.
Using these maps it is possible to
estimate average last freeze date for
all major farming areas in the state.
This date will be applicable for par
ticular location if the normal tempera-
ture drop from day to night is %
degrees F.
Hillsides VS.. Valleys
If you are located on hillside where
cold air doesn't accumulate during the
night, the temperature drop from day
to night is probably several degrees
less than % degrees F. On the other
hand, if you live in an area where
cold air accumulates at night, as is
true of many valley bottom locations
in the state, the temperature drop
from day to night probably averages
several degrees more than % degrees
F. Other factors in addition to topog-
raphy such as vegetation, irrigation
and soil also have some effect
1t has been determined that the aver
age date of last freeze will occur about
four days earlier than indicated on
the map for each degree that the day
tonight temperature drop is less than
% degrees F. Likewise, places with
average day-tO-night temperature drops
exceeding % degrees F. will have aver
age last freeze occurrence about four
DAYS later than indicated on the map
for each degree that the day-to-right
temperature drop exceeds % degrees +.
4 Days per Degree
For example, suppose the map i'm
dicates that the average last freeze
occurs May 10 at both points "A'' and
s'B" and the normal temperature drop
is % degrees F. at "A' and 80 degrees
F. at 3d." Then the actual average
IL mS

date, or May 6, and the average last
freeze date at point 'sB' would be four
days later than the map date, or
May ID.
Sites with most favorable cold air
drainage at night, such as along a
mountain slope quite high above val
ley or along a large lake, may have
average nighttime temperature drops
of less than IS degrees F. Places where
cold air tends to settle at night may
have average nighttime temperature
drops of more than 33 degrees F. Thus
the last freeze date at your particular
location may be more than Is days
before or after the date indicated by
the maps.
Small Nighttime Drops
Some Weather Bureau Chronological
stations with small nighttime tempera-
ture drops in the spring are Poison "a
degrees F., Bigfork-12S 25 degrees F.,
Red Lodge Is degrees F., and Boze-
man 26 degrees F. Both Poison and
the station IL miles south of BigfOrk
are in the cherry growing area on the
south and east shore of Flathead Lake,
respectively, and the early last freeze
date associated with these small night
time temperature drops may be an inn
portant factor in cherry production.
Some stations with large nighttime
temperature drops are West Yellow
stone So degrees F., Haugen "a degrees
F., and Wisdom 33 degrees F. The rec
ord low temperatures often reported
at West Yellowstone are no doubt
linked with these large nighttime tenn
perature drops peculiar to that loca-
tion No other climatological station in
the state exceeds Sc degrees F. and
only the ranger station at Libby has
an equally large nighttime temperature
drop.
Reference Points
These maps then will serve as ref
erence point and adjustment can be
made in the average date of last
freeze as indicated on the map, de-
pending upon local conditions such as
topography, vegetation, soil, etc. Tenn
perature measurements taken at any
location for a relatively short period
can be used to estimate how great the
usual temperature drop is at a par
ticular point and the map estimated
date can be adjusted accordingly.
In order to construct single map
of the state showing the distribution
of average last freeze dates, the 100
foot elevation interval maps are used
to determine average last freeze date
for each unit area over the state of
about six miles on side.
The lowest elevation in each square
is determined and the corresponding
elevation map is used to determine
the average last freeze date. The re-
suit is a map of Montana with many
small squares each of which has indi-
Gated freeze date for the lowest ele-
walton in the square A similar map
for highest elevations can also be
constructed.
One Day for Miles
The study has shown that the last
freeze date tends to be one day Later
for each 52-foot increase in elevation
and also one day later for each eight
mile northward distance From these

 Never give the pup rubber toyl Swallowed particles of rubber may prove fatal. And don't make the mistake of furnishing an old glove or slipper for him to chew on; all shoes and gloves will become fair game.
 If the pup is gnawing on some thing "yerboten" startle him. Throw an object at his feet; give the con- mand mo" in a loud voice. Reward him with a pat and a Hunt Club Breakfast Biscuit when he responds.
 Any alert housedog will bark at a strangers approach. Excessive barking is another thing and must be controlled. To quiet the dog, slip your hands around his muzzle, com- manding mo-. If the dog is wearing a leash, jerk it smartly as the com- mand is given. Spanking or shaking the dog helps in stubborn cases. It is important that the dog be corrected severely each time he offends this way.
 A puppy of three or four months should be pushed down immediately when he jumps on someone and sternly commanded "no". If the habit becomes fixed, correct the dog by pumping his chest with your raised knee each time he jumps up. Topple him over. Don't let him think you're playing with him.

Jim Thorpe, Legendary Athlete, Enters Indian Hall of Fame

ANADARKO, Okla, R - Jim Thorpe, the legendary Sac and Fox Indian who was acclaimed the outstanding athlete of the half century in 1850, entered the Ma tional Hall of Fame for American Indians Sunday.
 About 25O persons, including representative of IA Indian tribes attended the ceremonies at which a bronze bust of Thorpe was un- yelled.
 Orlo Robertson, veteran Asso- ciated Press sports writer who as boy in central Oklahoma knew Thorpe, praised the great athlete.
 Few athletes can walk down the street today and receive the attention that Jim Thorpe did" i" Robertson said. "The fame of most athletes is shortliVed but even 50 years after Jim had hit his peak he could walk down the street and people would still say There goes Jim Thorpe"
 Thorpe, who died in Los An geles of heart attack in 1853 at the age of 65, played college football at Carlisle Institution in Pennsylvania. He won the penta- thalon and decathalon in the 1912 Olympics and starred in both professional football and baseball.

mistic estimates with respect to
the availability Of trained Negro
workers during the next decade can
be reduced through education and
training.
These estimates constitute a
challenge to the nations educat-
ors, vocational guidance counsel
lors and employers, as well as to
Negro students and parents, the
Vice President said. In the words
of our Committee report, added
efforts must be made to help
Negro parents to keep their chill
dren in school so that they can
compete for employment more eff
fectively. But theirs is not the
only responsibility.
In the interests of the nation
al economy as well as Negro
workers, it is up to our educators,
vocational guidance counsellors
and employers to see that Negro
youth has the opportunity for the
kind of training that will prepare
him for the types of jobs which
we know will call for the greatest
numbers of workers during the
next ten years"
