THREE LETTERS
CAUSE TROUBLE

Great Falls Tribune: Three inno-
cent letters following the signature
to check for $l59.75 caused p. Il.
Apple some hours Of discomfort yes
terday afternoon but everything was
explained to the advantage Of Mr..
Apple and he was released after hav-
inn Ebeen detained ut the police sta
tion. In fact, it happened that apol-
ogies were coming Mr.. Apples way
and that he was the victim of an un-.
fortunate lot of circumstances.
Mr.. Apple sold his team few days
ago preparatory to coming to the city
from his ranch to get employment at
the smelter. He had failed to get a
crop for two years. and, as he put it,
he had to get to work to keep his
family. He secured employment at
the smelter and came. here. The sale
Of the horses was part OF the prepar-
ations to come to Great Falls.
For his team, Mr.. Apple got
check and when he went to get it
cashed at Judith Gap the man to
whom he applied did not have sutii-
citht cash but gave him all the cash
he could spare and 4 check for the
balance, amounting to $156.75. Yes
terday Mr.. Apple went to Strains
store to make some purchases and Of
fered the check in payment, asking
for the balance in cash. The matter
came to the attention Of W. j. Strain
and it appears matter of mistaken
identity caused him to be suspicious
Of the man anyway. and the fact that
the signature was 20. +. Deyarmon,
ESQ.," did not help to clear the stu
alton. Mr.. Strain called Chief of
Police Robert Pontet and Mr.. Apple
was taken to the police station. -

MayorJ. w. Speer and he telephoned
for him to help him yet the tangle
Strengthened out. Mayor Speer, af-
ter short investigation, found w.
F. Burgess, a rancher who lives in
the same section whore Mr.. Apples
home is located, and he quickly came
to the rescue of his neighbor. He
said he would vouch for the check, as
he had seen it written by Mr.. Deyar-
mon and knew why it was given. He
said he knew Mr.. Apple we'll and that
his story of the transaction was alb

BETTER FLOWING
BETTER CROPS

The maintenance and improvement
of soil texture depends more upon
plOwing than upon any other tillage
operation. Flowing adds neither
humus or plant food, bit if done
right will keep the soil i'll good tilth
and make plant food available.
The time to plow depends upon
both the season and the soil. The
farmer should exercise his best judg-
ment. always keeping in mind the
necessity of having his seed bed in
good physical condition.
There are good many advantages to
be gained by plowing in the fall.
II heavy clay soils are lap plowed be-
fore winter. the soil is exposed to the
action of the air and freezing wlici,
renders it mellow and friable or puts
it in condition to be- made so in the
spring by the disc and harrow.
Ii clay soils are plowed in the
spring when the ground is wet, pudd-
ling Will result and the seed bed will
be full OF Jumps that cannot be
pulverized.
Sod should bt plowed earlyg in the
fall; first, to destroy by freezing any
cut worms and insects that NAV be
brought near the surface: second, to
give the sod more time to rot.
Ground with y cover crop Of. anv
kind sheuld he plowed i'll the fall to
insure rotting Of the mass turned un-
der. Again, if the ground il plowed
during the fall and left rough, it alb
sOrbs rains and SHOWS. In semi-arid
regions however, surface cultivation
after plowing is necessary to prevent
the escape of stored water.
1t is advantageous to plow light
soils in the spring. Such soils are
easily brought to good filth by the
disc or harrow and made compact by
the sub-surface packer or roller.
We advocate deep plowing, hut the
operation Of deepening the seed bed
should be gradual. Plants require

ties the homestead law. The circular
reads as follows:
