Grace Franklin recounts western travels and Choteau ties
Grace Franklin writes of a 1901 Fish Lake assignment, meeting locals in Teton county and Glacier Park, and the humor of rural life. She recalls mentors, letters from Missoula, a San Diego pupil, and a Soo Son anecdote, ending with a note on Old Timers night and small town bonds. She closes with a playful wish to visit the moon.

Farmers Included In Social Security Provisions
Stanton S Thompson of the Great Falls district office said the 1954 Social Security amendments bring over 50 million agricultural workers into coverage. About 3.6 million self employed farmers and 2.1 million hired farm workers will fall under old age and survivors insurance on Jan 1, 1955. Self employed operators pay 1955 tax with 1956 return by April 15. A farm worker earning $100 or more from one employer in a year is covered from Jan 1, 1955. Farmers must withhold two percent for social security and send total to Internal Revenue. Workers need a social security account number on payroll reports. A leaflet on farm family social security is available.
