Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at the Connor's chapel for Mrs. Daisy Doyle Carpenter, 74. who passed away at the Broadwater Clinic and Hospital, Sunday aftla ernoon. Mrs. Carpenter was born Aug.

36, 1863, in St. Louis, and came to Montana when 4 woman. She has resided in Broadwater county since 1884 and was resident of Toston, until about 10 years ago. This hospitable, kindly pioneer woman was entire1y blind in one eye and had very poor vision in the other but enjoyed reading the daily paper with the of a strong reading glass and hoarded each topic in a keen mind. Thus when sickness and old age came upon her an interest in current events was maintained and she closely followed the lives of her friends and their from events recorded in the paper.

Daisy Carpenter was a musician and lived for many years in the home of B. F. Bembrick as private teacher of piano for his children. She also taught in the Boulder school for the blind and went to and from Toston while employed there. For short time she taught in the Helena valley, She married a George Carpenter, Nov.

23, 1903, in Toston, where they built their home known to all old residents as the "Bird Cage" due to its pocullar style of architecture. Mr. Carpenter was postmaster and played the violin. Thus he and his wife played for all the dances in Toston and all gatherings in the surrounding country. Mr.

Carpenter passed away in 1921 and shortly after his death the deceased suffered a stroke which made her practically an invalid the remaining years of her life. She was brought to Townsend 10 years ago and has been a patient at the Broadwater county hospital and clinic since May 21. Services were conducted by the Christian Science church and burial was made in the Deep Creek cemetery by the side of the grave of her husband. GRASSHOPPERS GRASSHOPPERS "Grasshoppers are in for the' most severe setback ever experi-1 enced due to wet weather, and the strongest county, state and national organization setup ever perfected in this western area," states W. 0.

Zirnstein, county extension agent. Even though weather has destroyed some grasshoppers and delayed the damage to be done by those remaining, it will be dollars and cents saved for everyone who is careful in poisoning all 'hoppers on crop land when they are of sufficient size. To allow 'hoppers to mature- and lay eggs this year means more 'hoppers in 1939 when costs of control may be more expensive, due to larger numbers. en Federal aid in the form of bait, for instance, has been given counties on the basis that they would make every effort to destroy all the grasshoppers possible so as to stamp them out completely. If they fail to do a thorough job of extermination, the cost of control may.

be entirely thrown back on them. Bait mixing in Broadwater county has started and bait will be available for those who call at the county clerk and recorder's office. Those wishing bait can assist greatly by calling the office a day or two in advance. Materials for this bait are furnished free of charge by the federal government. A charge just large enough to cover the cost of sacks and the labor of mixing must be paid by those using the bait.

Any producer who wishes to furnish sacks and do his own mixing can do so at no charge.
