The patient housewife who is try

Of the question gets on ones nerves,
and there is lot of real difficulty in
planning a wholesome variety for
each day. The Chicago Record Herald
has mercifully come to the aid of
puzzled housewives by printing in
each issue set of three menus, with
receipts, under the title, "Meals for

cash prizes every week for the best
of these menus, and women all over
the country are invited to compete.

DATA ON
DRY FARMING
Furnished by the Billings Congress. : Havre
and Vicinity Shown To Be Great.

Havre, Montana, May q, 1909
(speciaD With an empire Of unde.
veloped land tributary to it, Havre
gives promise of becoming one of the
important dry farming centers of Nor
thern Montana. Already a start has
been made in the agriculture of the
non-irrigable lands in this vicinity,
but as one of the Hayre men puts it.
'sThis part of Montana has not vet
been discovered. -
On every side Of this place stretch
miles upon miles of bench land, for
years regarded as fit only for grazing.
There are a few who still claim that
it is only a cattle or sheep country,
but settlers are beginning to come in
and crops are being raised. In the
SWeetgrass Hills, northwest Of here,
farming has been carried on for a
number Of years and it is said there
has not been a crop failure in decade.
The grain raised in that part of
Choteau County is claimed to be
among the finest in Montana. DIR. T..
L. Clark, who has a ranch near West
Butte, is reported to have harvested
l23 bushels of oats to the acre on nom
irrigated land. Around Havre, and
stretching northWard to the Canadian
line, are millions Of acres of dry
farming land awaiting the plow of
the homesteader Four miles west of
here a demonstration farm has been
established under the auspices of the
Havre Industrial Association. The
work is done under the supervision of
James Holland, business man who
believes in the principles of dry
farming. Last year work was started
on this farm and the ground was sum-
mer fallowed in preparation for crops.
Winter wheat, rye and oats were
planted, seeded as follows: Wheat
four pecks, rye three pecks, and oats
five pecks. The winter wheat through
an extension tract of northern Mon
tana suffered from climatic conditions
and only in few isolated instances
escaped destruction from alternating
freezing and thawing. But the rye
and oats at the demonstration farm
came up in good shape and its thrifty
appearance now indicates good crops.
This farm will give valuable ex-
perience and the results will be watch
ed with interest because the crops
have been planted and are being culti-
waited under the same difficulties that
the average homesteader faces. The
Yellowstone monitor. [volume] (Glendive, Mont.) 1905-1928, 1909-05-27

soil is typical of the bench lands Of
this vicinity, being a deep, rich sandy
| loan. AS the result of deep blowing
and thorough tillage during the sum-
mer fallow season and cultivation
since the passing of winter the mois-
ture has been conserved in the ground
and is perceptible from considerable
depth almost to the surface.
The rain fall as recorded at the
Weather Bureau Station here last
year was 1872 inches; the normal be-
ing 1857. The records show that DUR
ing the last 29 years, since the local
bureau was established, the major
portion of the precipitation comes dur
ing the growing season, being
heaviest during May and June.
Havre citizens are becoming deeply
interested in the agricultural develop
ment of this part of Montana, which
includes part OF the famous Mill Riv-
er Valley. The Havre Industrial AS
sociation of which w. Fl. Stringfellow
is President and W. B. Ryper, Sec
retary is an active agency working
for the development Of the district.
This organization has the cooperation
of the leading business men Of the
town and farmers of the surrounding
country, including l.. Newman, men,
ber Of the Montana Board of Control
Of the Dry Farming Congress- Mr..
Holland, C. F. Morris, Cashier of the
Security State Bank of Havre and
others and has promised to send an
exhibit of non-irrigated crops to the
international Exposition of Dry Farm
Products which will be held at Bill
ings, Montana, October Is. %, 1909,
where the Fourth sessions of the Dry
Farming Congress will be held Octo-
Der 26-27-28.
There are several places in this
part of Montana where other crops
than grains are being grown with
marked success. Morris Price of Hill,
Montana, is one Of the successful po-
tato raisers of this section. It is said
that the potatoes grown on dry farm
land in this vicinity excel in quality
those of many older and better known
potato districts.
Havre has been coming to the front
SO rapidly during the last two or three
years that movement is on foot now
to secure the county plat. The popula-
tion of the town is reported at over
thirty-five hundred.
