Among those appointed as dele
gates to the Fifth Dry Farming
Congress to be held at Spokane
from Oct. 3 to 8 Gov. E. l.. Nor
ris recently chose j. G. Kinney as
q representative from eastern Mon
tana. The fourth Congress held
at Billings last October was great
success, having proved especially
profitable to Wibaux and vicinity,
from an agricultural standpoint.
It is the great desire Of the gov
ernor that similar representation
be given this year and earnestly
requests of all farmers in this To-
cality to prepare another splendid
exhibit. Get busy and do it now.
Since receiving Mr.. Davis an
nouncement as a candidat for coun-
ty commissioners we learn that the
friends Of Mr.. L. j. Bushell have
persuaded him to accept the cand-
idacy for the same office, on the
Republican ticket. Mr.. Bushell,
as well as the above mentioned
candidate, is a personal friend Of
the Pioneer and under these cir
cumstances we do not feel iusti-
fled in showing any choice between
the two candidates, for as a mat
ter of fact, we believe they are
both efficiently qualified to per-
form the duties of that responsible
office. Mr.. Bushell has been a
resident Of the county for a num-
ber of years, and being a good
mixer" in politics, has no doubt
acquired a good knowledge of what
is required Of a county commits
sioner.

SUMMARY OF
BALL SEASON
Locals win 1S out of
20 GameS---GOOd
Bat'g average

According to the following sum-
mary OF the seasons games by Man.
ager Jennings, Wibaux has won
the championship over all the teams
along this line between Valley
City n. d. and Billings, Montana,
and Beach was the only team by
which they were defeated. The
locals also proved the strongest bat
ting team in eastern Montana and
western North Dakota, having been
out-hit in but one game during the
season.
Out Of the twenty games played
there were eighteen homeruns
made, as follows: Jennings, 9; Tue
ker, 3; Sporer, 2; Griffin, 3; Reed,
!. The team was also exception
ally strong on bunting, and in the
more recent games they frequent
ly worked the squeese play with
good results. The teams percent
age Of winnings was 9CO, and that
is not SO poor.
All the players have left for diff
ferent parts Of the country except
ing our left fielder, Schmidt, who
remains in town and is learning
the automobile business, and
"Janey" McLeran, the fleet-foot-
ed right fielder, who is now stick
ing type 1or she Pioneer. "Pa"
Tucker and Michael Anthony Griff-
in have gone to st. Paul to spend
the winter. Mike, like Jim jeff
cries, is boiler maker and intends
following bis trade there this win
ter, while "Tuck' will probably
go on the Bijou circuit in the east.
Ford is surviving at Belfield, N.
d., and Deltschman at Beach.
Reed, the dandy little catcher, is
also at Beach where he is working
at his trade. "Redo Tennant is
now doing things on his farm near
town, and Manager Jennings has
gone west to his farm on the Mus
sellshell river, where he intends
spending part of his time, and will
also spend portion Of the winter
at his former home in Wisconsin.

ed the heavy roller close. It was
getting late SO the other part of
the field was not rolled or harrow
ed until the flax was drilled in
and theu it wasn't it was as
dry as powder house in less than
a week. The best piece of barley
in the country across there, was
sown on land that was we'll plowed
the week after the macroni wheat
was cut off of it the year before,
and as it was twice thoroughly
narrowed between that time and
winter, beside being narrowed the
day it was plowed, the dryness does
not seem to affect it any more than
it does summer-fa fallow or clean
corn land. There is mile long
piece OF oats not worth putting the
binder into, and upon looking into
the cause we find it very seedy
and "stubbled in''. This same piece
OF land in very favorable season,
being little loose in texture gave
pretty fair returns after this same
treatment years ago, but the mus
tard is thicker now, the farming is
written plainly in withered grain
and bright yellow of the mustard.
And SO the lessons run from one
end OF the country to the other,
There are sections, It's true, where
SO little moisture has fallen that
even the best of farming is bring
ing encouragement and loss; but
all over the vast stretch Of country
through which we have travelled by
auto, train or on foot we have con-
stantly come across from good to
extra crops of almost everything,
and every time we have stopped to
look up the reason for their exist
auce we have found one. And we
have found too, that in great ma
Jority OF cases the one in charge of
the poor crops had more acres than
he could properly handle. Occas-
ionally we found man who had
by ample hired help and machin-
cry produced crops that were bet
ter than those of smaller farms a.
round him, but as rule the plea
for not plowing well and early, for
not working down the breaking.
for not narrowing behind the plow
and SO on to the end, was Il had

LESSON OF
THE FIELDS
Professor Shaw offers
Plain Reasons for
Good Results


ture, no expert in dead or living
languages to interpret the great
lessons that today loom in unmis-
taxable lettering above the fields
of tha wide northwest. The Ian
guage, in which these lessons are
written, is a universal tongue, and
the most ignorant and careless as
well as the brightest and best in
formed can real and profit by
them. Good seasons blind us to
the absolute need of good farming
and the poorly hendl led soil at such
times frequently responds to abuse
almost as literally as to good treat
ment; but such season as this
brings out good farming in out
standing distinctness, and Just as
surely uncovers neglect and poor
management. Here is a field of
grain SO hidden in wild oats and
other weeds that much Of the scant
fertility and all of the surplus mois-
ture was taken from it, just when
the grain needed it most, and it is
not worth cutting. Across the
road is a field of wheat or oats
that does not show a weed from
the road, only few old corn stalks
are visible, and it may make fifteen
or eighteen bushel il. spite of the
dryness. A good season it would
have done much better. Here is
field of alfalfa completely burned
out, while not far from it is one
still green and vigorous, anu if the
fall and winter is not to hard up-
on it, there will BE- a good stand
left another spring. The first peice
was sown on an ordinary seed bed
and owing to weeds and other
drawbacks, did not get rooted very
deeply before the dry weather
struck it and the weeds robbed it.
Ihe other piece was put into a
clean, repeatedly and deeply work
ed seed bed, we'll fertilized, and
the early vigorous unhindered root
growth put down such long feed
ers that now it is beyond the harm
of surface dryness and the owner
believes that alfalfa will prove a
upon his land. Over there
is a small field of potatoes so rank
and vigorous that it attracts the at
tention of people on the prssing
trainse ven, for all other potato
fields seem given up to bugs and
dryness. Looking up the matter,
we find that the field is a deeply
worked, top dressed clover soil;
that the seed was from large select
eel potatoes kept SO cocl in the
spring that the sprouts were only
Just starting when they were put
into the splendid seed bed early. |
