SHAW VISITS THIS REGION
Suggests That the Farmers Devote Some Of
Their lime TO Raising Fodder Corn.

Prof. Thomas Shaw Of ST. Paul,
MIMI, the most widely known and
foremost authority on agriculture in
tho United States, recently visited
th,b region 20 make an inspection of
the soil and lands and also Of dry
farming conditions, the report being
obtained for James J. Hill of Great
Northern railroad fame. Prof. Shaw
was accompanied by Prof. +. Is. Lind
field of the Bozeman agricultural
college.
The.two gentlemen spent several
days driving throughout the country
Both were liberal in their statements
as to the rapid agricultural develop
ment, and We're agreeably astonished
by the large crops being harvested.
During Il conversation Prof. Shaw
stated that he believed the portion of
the country south, but near the Snowy
and Little Belt mountains, would
eventually raise the largest crops of
this region. He said the soil analysis
shows the same rich ingredients as
the soil of the Basin, and that this
portion of the country receives five
inches more Of rainfall each yearthan
the Basin.
During his drive he saw many
patches Of corn, and he made the sug-
gestion that farmers pay more atten-
ton to the raising of corn for fodder
Claiming that from 1 to tons could
be gathered from each acre. He also
predicted that this would in the near
future be great dairy region, as with
an abundant yield of fodder corn,
sugar beets, mangel-wurzels, alfalfa.
timothy and other tame grasses, to-
ge:her with the mild what ers and the
even temperature Of the summer
months, make dairy conditions nearly
ideal. With butter selling from 30 to
40 cents pound, the prevailing
prices throughout the year, il surely
should be Il profitable industry.
