lRR,GATlNG THE ORCHARD.
Farmers Should Cultivate to Conserve
the Moisture.

G. l.. O., Ravilli county. sends the
follow ing communication: Il have two
feet OF water and would like to know
whether that is enough to irrigate
land for an orchard? The soil Is
a sandy clay loam and is fairly level.
The field slopes slightly to the north
and west. This land has produced
clover and small grain for about ten
years. The subsoil is composed of
mixed sand and gravel
Reply: In many sections in which
the annual rainfall is not equal to that
of the Bitter Root valley. young and
bearing orchards are grown with less
than two acre feet of irrigation water.
l should consider this an abundance

The tendency is for irrigation Or
chardists to irrigate too much and
cultivate too little. In many cases. l
believe it would be 4 great advantage
to the orchardist If he did not have so
much irrigation water. Irrigation will
not take the place Of cultivation and

COUNTY COURT HOUSE.

The journal is in receipt Of long
communication, from the firm Of Con-
well Il Conwell Of White Sulphur
Springs with the request to publish
AS Il news item. The communication
is signed by two of the county com
mi>SonerS. hut is to lengthy to pub
lish in our limited space The bur-
den of the plea for IL new court house
is that the present structure has not
vaults enough to adequately and
safely keep the valuable records be-
longing to the taxpayers, and the
several county officials are cramped
for room or crowded out entirely.
The election will be held on May
oath to decide whether OF not the tan
payers will agree to bond the county
in the sum of slOO, 900 for Il new court
house at White sulphur Springs, and
it will be up to the voters to agree or
disagree to the proposition. That
new court house is needed al admit;
that a SlOo,OOO one is necessary is Il
debatable subject: that any improve
nent at this time is il wise move is
doubted by all in this end Of the
county.
Conditions are rapidly changing in
Montana. The state is passing from
a live stock and mining era to o Z OF
agriculture, and he next few
years will see many new counties
formed out OF the unwtildly ONES rs
now established. Owing to the mac
cessability Of the present county seat
Of Meagher county, it is only Il gues-
ton of Il very short time when the
county will be cut into two. or pos
s!bly into three new counties. and
with this idea strongly impressed on
the minds of all voters, the Journal
is of the opinion that the time is in
Opportune to have the question
brought to Il vote this year. That it
will not carry, is Il foregone conclu-
sion.
The communication beforpmention-
Ell says: ">hould the county be div i'd
ell at any time the part taken away
from the present county would have
to assume it's share Of the indebte ed

for it. SO it would virtual Y
amount to an expense upon the old

Treating Flax
With Formaldehyde.
BY Il. T. Patterson, Montana
Agricultural College.

+ J. !. :. J. !. :. ! !. X !. !. ]. j. !. !. !
1t is only during the past two or
three years that attention has been
given to the treatment Of flax with for
maldehydc The North Dakota Elk.
pertinent station has conducted
large number of experiments along
his line. 1t has been stated that
forna!dehyde is very valuable in de-
stros ing the bacteria of the disease
known as fax wilt. Until recently the
only method known by which this dis
ease could be eliminated was by Sc
lection Of clean seed and sowing this
seed upon clean ground. As was men,
toned before, formaldehyde will de-
stroy this disease. The method Of
treatment, however, is very difficult.
Unless great deal of care is used in
treating the grain the flax seeds will
stick together and it will he almost
impossible to run the seed through the
grain drill.
The solution of the fOrmalin should
not he quite as strong as that used
in destroying smut on small grains.
A mixture that is usually recommend
ed is made by adding one pint OF form
ain to about fifty gallons of water.
Formalin is usually described as a 40
per cent solution of formaldehyde.
This mixture is of sufficient strength
to destroy the bacteria OF fax wilt.
We should use great deal of care
in the method of applying this mix
tnre to the grain. If we were to place
the flax seed in gunny sack and inn
merse this in barrel of the solution.
we would find that the entire amount
of seed would form into one large.
hard mass For this reason the grain
should he spread out upon the gran
ary floor to the depth of not more
than one.fourth to one.half inch. The
formaldehyde solution should be
sprinkled on this grain with small
force spray pump. Each grain should
receive enough of the solution SO that
il is saturated. It should then be GOV.
cred with tarpaulin, horse blanket,
or g,,nny sack and allowed to remain
under this covering for not more than
two hours. after which the covering
can be removed and the grain stirred
ard worked about until thoroughly
uried. If the flax seed is handled in
this way there is not much danger Of
large masses of seeds forming.
In this connection we desire to
state that the treatment of flax seed
with a formaldehyde solution will not
entirely rid the locality OF flax wilt.
/ II is generally known that the bac-
| terra that cause this disease live over
! winter in the soil and upon the weeds.
/ as we'll as upon seed grain. The meth.
od of treatment given above will only
destroy the bacteria that are found
upon the flax seed itself Ii we de-
sire to entirely rid ourselves of this
disease. we must select the land that
is to grow flax in locality where
!, the disease is not found or where flax
has not been grown more than one
