SO dry, but no difficulty of that kind
should be met with the present sea
son.
AS is now generally known, the
Turkey Red winter wheat is the
variety to SOW. 1t will answer to
use seed of both 1910 and 1911. Seed
Of 1910 will answer quite we'll when
seed of 1911 cannot be obtained in
time. Generally speaking the seed
should be sown during the last half
of August, but in some of the warm
er sections it may be well to defer
sowing to about September LIST.
The seed should be sown with the
drill. Three pecks of seed should be
enough OH summer fallowed land.
The seed shond be put in somewhat
deeply. usually not less than three
inches. If the moisture is further
down, it should go more deeply. The
ground should not he rolled after
sowing the wheat. Whether it should
be narrowed will depend on such con-
dltions as the crustlng OF the land,
just when the points OF the grain be-
gin to show it will do good to harrow
the crop with Il light harrow. The
teeth should have a backward slant.
Narrowing. subsequently, should not
be done in the autumn as IL rule, save
when the ground crusts. n good
stand in the fall in the larger portion
of Montana promises well for the crop
of the next season.
1t is not good plan usually, to
SOW winter wheat on dsked or au-
tumn plowed stubble land, but if
ample moisture is present it may be
sOWn thus. In Il very dry autumn
and especially il the land is dry when
the wheat is sOwn, such sowing is
hazardous. Ii the wheat does not
terminate well as soon us it is sown,
the results are not usually satisfac-
tory.
Crops have been grown by simply
drilling in the grain amid the stub
bles, but they have not been heavy
yielding crops as a rule.
The wheat may also be sOwn in
standing corn and the corn cut ut the
proper time. When sown thus it is
put in with a one-horse drill. In
such a case, it is pre-supposed that
the corn is kept clean while in process
OF growth. This method Of sowing
should give good crops OF wheat. and
as large areas of corn are now being
grown in Montana in some instances,
this method of sowing should engage
the attention of farmers. \ disk
drill is usually to be preferred.

WINTER WHEAT in
TREASURE STATE

Prof. Thomas Shaw: Rains more
or less copiOus fell over much Of
Montana during the first week in
August. Where these fell on sum-
mer fallowed land that had been pro-
perly cared for during the previous
part of the season, they will put
enough of moisture in the soil to ger
inmate winter wheat when it is sown.
Of course this implies that the farm
ers took the precautiOn to run the
harrow over the field at the close of
the period when the rain fell. to keep
the rain from escaping from the
same.
This rainfall. somewhat uncommon
ut this season in Montana. may be
turned to most excellent account. 1t
has come too late to materially help
the grain crops except in the case
Of corn and flax. In Il way it gives
promise of Il good winter wheat crop
IN 1912. providing the opportunity is
improved. To improve it properly
the moisture should be kept in the
soil and the wheat sOwn in good sea-
son. In the autumn of 1910 it was
not easy to sprOut wheat in many in
stances in Montana the ground was

ON THE FARMS.

Figures recently complied by Off
cial authority show gratifying adj
vance in the value of Montana pro-
perty. This year the valuation is
about 81, ,OCO in excess of the to-
tai for last year-the grand aggre-
gate is about S3333, o'm, OCO, says the
Anaconda Standard.
Montana showed, in last years cen
suS returns, marked increase i'm
farm values. There was IN unusual
gain in the total area cultivated, i'm
the number of farms, in the value per
acre and in the amount Of money re.
presented in improvements.
1t transpir"s that the record for
Montana in this respect is typical of
the experience of the whole country.
Final figures resulting from last
farm land, buildings, machinery and
implements for the census decade in
creased from seventeen thousand mil
lion dollars to thirty-live Thousand
millions. During the ten years the
number Of farms accounted for in the
federal census increased from ;. 49,
312 to 6,34O, 900. OF course, the acre
age was moi heavily increased, since
most OF the public's domain has been
taken up. But the increase in valre
per acre for the entire country was
astonishing. That average was Sl5.-
80 in 1900: in 1910 it was So 40.
The marked increase in the value of
improvements OH farms is in token of
substantial permanent gain, and it is
a gratifying fact that with respect to
all these items showing gains Mon
tana ranked among the foremost
states. The gain Tor last year was
heavy. The current year will make
All excellent record on that score.

The cool weather and abundant rains
in the past few weeks assure the North
west farmers good crops. More than
usual returns will he had by many of
the more progressive farmers, who will
exhibit at the New York and other big
land shows. The habit of exhibiting at
these big shows is good one TO get-it
brings honor and money to the cnterpris-
ing farmer. In past years the Northwest
farmers have won many prizes for the
best pOtatoes-barley
finest apples-and prize winning corn
sugar beets. alfalfa and hops are also
raised. Every time Northwest farmer
wins prize at the big land shows more
settlers come into the Northwest and
many times they move close by the prize
winners farm. This increases the value
of his land and brings him good, ambi-
tious ncighl,ors, who also get the prize

is Il big silver cup for potatocs-a 81 .OGo
cup. The Northwest ought to win that
potato cup. as well as the wheat prize
money. Then there is the lAriing cup
for the best oats--the James J. Hill cup
for the best 100 pounds of whcat-thc
Busch cup TO: llops-the Pab>t cup for
barley. All these are beautiful cups. all
worth 81 1000. except the Pabst barley cup
that's worth 81 800. Surely the North
west should win these cups. Where else
do they raise such potatoes, wheat, bar
ley, oats, etc.!
$500 for Apples.
President Elliott. Of the Northern Pa
cilic Railway. has offered $500 in gold for
the finest apples. The apples raised in
Montana, Oregon and Washington are
easily the best in the world. They bring
the highest prices and have the best
flavor. color and keeping qualities, as the
National Apple Shows have demonstrated.
1t is now harvest time, and the farm
crs of this section should 90 after these
prizes. The Great Northern Railway will

MANY PARTIES
in THE FIELD

Seventeen million acres of land. APP

year in the public land states of the
United States, according to Frank
NJ. Johnson, supervisor of surveys,
who was in Helena on II ter days Wis
it to keep in touch with the progress
that is being made in Montana.
\ hundred and fifteen surveying
parties are at work in the field in diff
terent parts of the west. OF this
number more are at work in this
state than in any other. and greater
acreage will be surveyed in Montana
than in any other state. "ln addi-
tion to its proportion OF the general
fund Montana has II special appro-
priation of one hundred thousand
dollars to survey lands in Fergus,
Valley, Dawson and Custer counties.
and a fund for the surveying of public
lands within the limits of the railroad
grant," said Mr.. johnson today.
.'lt is the policy OF the department
to first survey lands for which set
tiers have made application" contin-
ued the supervisor, "next, those for
which the states have applied under
the several land grants. and then
lands which are believed to possess
agricultural possibilities.

these days when thousands of acres
OF land are leased, it has often been
impossible for the StOckman or cow
