During the course of the something to help herself, investigation charges were made "There were between 20 and 25 against some California police officers that they had taken "protection money" from the vice ring. A civic "decency" or "purity" league was organized in San Francisco but Jean apparently was a "pawn" in the game that San Franciscans and Californians did not care to use any more. When the trials were over they sent her homo to Great Falls. Even some of her relatives did not care to help her. Her father, J.

W. Walters, 72, who gets a pension of $27 a. month, wants to do everything he can to help her but he does not know how. For more than six weeks the state and county departments of public welfare have been attempting to make some arrangements for Jean, some of the officials insisting that she be sent away from Great Falls. Jean wanted to go to business college, but the officials said they had not been able to complete arrangements.

Many of Jean's so-called friends are more curiosity seekers who want her to retell and relieve her experiences by detailing what happened. Others seem to think she is a girl to be shunned. Jean feels she has never had a chance. Her mother and father were separated when she was a child and her mother died in 1931. After that, she was sent to the orphans' home and later worked In private homes as a maid before going to California.

"There was another girl from Great Falls who went along with me, too." (This girl, 19, had run away from home. She was returned to Great Falls a few days ago). When it was learned that the girl was in Butte, local officers called and arranged for Jean to return home. When she returned she was lodged in jail on a health warrant. As Jean sits in the county jail she wonders and ponders over the meaning of "decency" and "purity" leagues, "public welfare," "relief," "social work," National Youth administration and Works Progress administration.

When officers in California hastily put her on the train they told her that the folks in her home town would look after her. Yesterday she was taken to the city jail to be "mugged" and "fingerprinted."

He has staked off th" areas where phosphate was applied to bo able to determine definitely tho results. However, when in town the other day, ho said that the stak- ng was unnecessary as the treated grain at the present time is sev- inches taller than the untreated. Mr. Waldo also has made experiments with Yoyo wheat of which he is about to harvest SO acres.

He reports it has as much protein as Marquis wheat and yields from 10 to 15 bushels more per Mr. Wald resides two miles east of the Post Creek store. Hamilton, Aug. Gaffney, ranchman of the Blodgett canyon area, reports seeing a bull moose in his field this week. Moose are not infrequent visitors in the valley farm country as they make their way from the east and west ranges.

The animals are apparently aware of the law's protection as they are delib- in their movements across Last fall one was killed by a car on the upper valley highway. The Lake Como woods have been favorite haunts of moose for many years, and more than one visitor in the Como mountains, has glimpsed as many as three in a moose family.

I Bozeman. Aug. sev- jeral years of drouth have brought more requests for assistance to i build flood Irrigation systems and stock reservoirs than one man can fill, Gib Zeidler, extension agent for Fallon and Carter counties announces the "graduation" of 2-j authorized engineers from his practical training school. The "graduates" are now pre- pn-ed to a ii necessary s'ir- i veying for flood irrigation systems for stock reservoirs or for irrigation, Zeidler says. 1 Instructors for the school were Horace Parker and Elmer Olson.

1 of the state A.A.A. office, members 'of the county agricultural conservation committee, and Zeidler. Textbooks were free bulletins supplied by the agricultural engineering department of the Montana Agricultural Experiment station. The Idea of a school came after Zeidler viewed the requests he had for assistance to build flood irrigation systems. In 1937 he received 60 from Fallon and 2S from Carter county farmers.

This year he has received 26 from Carter and 34 from Fallon. He presented the idea of a school to residents of both counties and received a favorable response. I Roy Williams and 'William Lam- jbert, two of the "graduates," made 'a round i of 160 miles to attend one They have since purchased a farm level jointly to use In their work. Other engineers have hand levels, sufficiently accurate for the work. Necessary technical training was given before the group took the field for practical work where they "ran" levels.

Each man in this group is experienced in building dams, having built one or more for his own use. As dams have to be built securely to stand any type of rain, each engineer is furnished with the extension i specifications. Forms are provided each engineer so reports are uniform. Each engineer Is assigned territory convenient for him and he furnishes his equipment. The authorized eneinoers are Roy Williams and William Lambert, Piniele; Frank Arbuckle, Walter Nutter.
