Getting Ready for Fall
Wheat.

{. 3. HoDD,on in Field and farm
It will soon be time to prepare
the ground for a stand of winter
wheat and I would like to cut in
with few remarks on the sub
iect. Neglecting to plow early
so that the soil will become thor
oughlv settled and compact
is perhaps the cause of more
complete failures in dry countries
than almost any other. Some
times it is impossible on account
of lack of moisture to pillow the
ground soon after harvest. When |
this is the case and the land can
not be irrigated beforehand |
would rather drill the wheat in
to unplowed stubble, if fairly free
from weeds and insects, than to
plow late. Flowing can usually
be begun by the middle of Aug
ust, giving month or so before
seeding AS to time of sowing
no definite rule can be given.
All depends upon the condition
of the soil and the season. If
the field has been plowed in
August SOW by the middle of
September in order to catch the
equinoXial storm which comes
along about a week later. Do
not SOW later than the last week
of September or the first two
weeks in October.
The wheat should not be
stunted too long by standing in
the hot, dry autumn sun and
wind. There should be continu-
Gus growth from the time the
g seed drops into the ground until
, II goes into winter quarters and
e then again from the time the

MAKING OF SUGAR

as follows;

The cold storage for grief has been

opened and the sugar factory is re-
sponsible-the first Of its kind in Idaho.
"The sugar factory is located about
three miles from Idaho Falls on Sand
creek, but it is not proposed to locate
any OF Sand creek in the sugar. The
management guarantees that. The cor
ner stone Of the bnilding was laid in
April Of this year, and it-seems almost
incredible that the immense structure is
so soon completed and the machinery
set in motion. Skirting the factory is a
little town that is decidedly Pullman
esque in its inception and appearance.
1t is composed of number Of neat cot
tages for the married men, and hotels
and lodging houses for the others, all
as trim as first-class ship. These
buildings were erected by the company,
whose policy it is TO make the surround
ines of its employees as pleasant as pos
sible, and which has planned many 9TH
er improvements including public
park, with the same end in view. All
the buildings are lighted by electricity
generated in the factory
"sugarville is surrounded by $40 acres
Of very fine land owned by the company
and the operating plant occupies about

the factory until its capacity is increas-

"lnciuding the amount paid out for
sugar beets and to be paid out this
month to the farmers in that section,

very close to million dollars.

If the plans of several gentlemen in
this city materialize, Lewistown will,
some day in the near future. boast
OF as nice a club room as can be found
in any of the smaller cities of the
state. The men of the city have long
felt the lack of some place to go to
spend an occasional social evening
and the question Of organizing a club
of some sort has been generally dis
cussed.
C. A. Case, the well known mining
man, and r. ID. Young have decided
to put a second story on the Majestic
buffet building, and they express the
belief that they will be able to secure
a sufficient number of gentlemen
about town to subscribe to make Il
one of the most elegant places in the
country. The plan is to assess each
member 800, which sum Will furnish
the Vol and give the club a six yea
lease on the building. The propos!
ton has been most favorably looked
upon by several of the business mel
of the town, about thirty having sig
niied their willingness to become
members of the club under the condi
lions named.

; story will begin at once and the con
tract having practically been let Il
