TO DRIVE TRIItTORS:
Butte Can Supply Competent
Help for the Big Mon
tana Farms.
If demand is made the bovs in the
machine shop« at the Bute high school,
who are thoroughly familiar with mo
tors and able to take them apart ami
put them together again, will run the
tractors on the big Montana farms
this summer, according to Hupt. W. E.
Mad dock, who has »-etumed from the
meeting of the state commission of
the national defense council held In
1 lelena.
"When the demand for help cornea
—and it is expected in the line of
tractor operators more than any other
line," said Mr. Maddock today, "the
matter will be presented to the boys
but no boy will be encouraged to go
by the school authorities without the
written consent of his parents. I
look upon such a scheme as one
in which the boys will be as much
benefited by their experiences as will
Montana's food crops by their labors,
of course, full credits will be awarded
them for their work."
The local commission of the coun
cil of national defense Is holding a
meeting late this afternoon at the of
fice of Eugene Carroll, who is the
chairman, others present are A. J.
Davis and Charles Austin, the other
two members of the commission, and
Superintendent Maddock and Rev. T.
t\ Brockway. It Is generally under
stood now that appeals for high school
boys for farm work this season will
come through the clearing house of
the state association in Helena,
through the local commissions in each
city and through them to the school
superintendents and principals, who
rill act
"The
Girls Will Help.
mpaign for food conserva
tion and greater food production,"
"«Id Mr. Maddock today, "will be ex
tended In the schools to the girls, who
will be instructed and urged to work
for more savings in the home kitchen
and to use every particle of food. Tho
home gardening in the schools will
help much. This is the first attempt
made in the local schools and it is un
likely that enough will be raised to
put away for winter use. However,
if onl> enough fresh vegetables are
raised to supply the table during the
summer and early fall this will at least
give the larger producers an oppor
tunity of putting away supplies for
canning purposes, since they will not
be called upon to furnish the fresh
supply to the cities during the sum
mer. So that the work in the home
gardens by the children will be quite
a large one.
"The nation is a wasteful one and
whatever t*e the result of the war or
whatever its length, whether there will
be n big food shortage or whether the
precautions taken will have proved to
be unnecessary—as we all most sin
cerely pray for—a great lesson will
have been learned by the American
people, a lesson that was sorely need
ed. The resources of the country will
be greatly amplified and the producers
will realize how much can be done
with a little more effort."
