FAREWELL SERMON
BY REV. E.. E. WHARTON

Services at the Methodist church
for August II. There will be but one
preaching service OH this date, at
II a. m.
The pastor has been ordered to de-
liver at the coming session of the
Annual Conference, what is known
as the Annual Conference Sermon.
This sermon will be delivered in the
church in Malta on the above date
and hour. This will he the last SER
vice for this Conference year, and
we close the year regretfully. We
have made mistakes, for which we
are truly sorry. Perhaps we have
hurt some and offended others.
These offenses have been errors of
Judgment, and are the result of being
purely human, and were unintention-
al. We have been wholly Jealous for
the glory of God, and have simply
tried to promote righteousness among
the people.
We have upheld high standard,
yet the only one approved by God
the life Of Christ, lived to show us
how to live. For this we offer no
apology; but. trusting the work at
tempted to the care of our Heavenly
Father. we submit all to His approx
al. The work will go on without a
break. A pastor will be here prompt
1y, and will take up the work where
we drop it. Our prayers have as
cended daily, almost constantly. for
the success Of Christ's Cause in NAL
ia. and in His own good time the
Revival will come.

In much of the Dakotas and in
nearly all Montana the crop of
native hay is unusually bountiful
the present season, The unbroken
lands are covered with vegetation
such as is seldom seen in the areas
named. Old timers say that the ma
tive grass crop this year has not been
exceeded during the past twenty
years. In some favored locations
as the river bottoms, the blue joint
hay will run more than ton to the
acre, and even on bench lands much
of the entire area will repay cutting,
even where the growth may be too
light for profitable cutting, the pas
ture furnished is going to mean much
to the farmers of those states.
Here then is an opportunity such
as seldom comes to the farmers of
West. May they improve it to the
utmost. That hay should all be cut
and cured where it is all possible to
accomplish this end. 1t is an oppor-
tunity that seldom comes and it
ought to be improved to the utmost.
The hay that is thus furnished may
be kept for two or three years should
the surplus not he wanted the coming
winter, next season may be dry. The
growth may be as far short of nor
NAL as it is above normal the present
season.
When should the hay be cut? 1t
cannot be cut too soon. That which
is cut before harvest will he the best
hay as far as quality is concerned.
Therefore every effort should be
made to cut the crop at once and to
store it with care. But should the
ranchman not be able to harvest all
this crop before the grain harvest is
ready, they should 60 OH and harvest
it at later period. The harvesting
of this hay may continue OIL until the
late autumn, although the quality Of
the hay becomes of increasing woodi-
ness, deteriorates with the advance of
the season after the usual time for
harvesting grain. Every effort there
fore should be made to harvest this
hay because of the service that it may
render within the next year or two.
This hay should be harvested with
care. 1t should not be allowed to
cure too far before it is raked. 1t
rows or even in punches for days and
even weeks after it has been raked.
1t should not be stacked in careless
shipshod manner, such as will not
resist the advent of rain. The prai-
rie resists rain much more perfectly
than nearly all the kinds of cultivat-
ed hav. hence if it, is DrODerly stacked.

August, Jared we'll with the copious
fall rains, and the strong, we'll formed
stalks are about three feet tall 4,
with large heavy heads containing
plump, perfectly formed kernels. 1t
is conservatively estimated that the
yield will be thirty-fve bushels to
the acre but it may yield more than
that. The quality of this winter
wheat is so extra fine that should Mr..
Hardin compete for prize at some

to carry off a substantial sum and

The auction sale of pure bred stock
which was inaugurated as one of the
livestock department at the Montana
State Fair last year met with the
hearty approval of the breeders Of
the State who are interested i'm that
line of industry. The beneficial re =
suits of the auction sale in increasing
the number of breeders of thorough :
bred stock is noticeable this year, the
Fair management believes, in the
prospects for increased entries in
that department of the exposition:
Needless to say, the auction sale will
be one Of the features of the Fair
again this year.
Last year the sale was held on
three different mornings of Fair
W. elk. This year that will be chang
ed and the sale will occur only on
Friday morning. Cattle, hors s,
sheep and swine Will receive the at
tention of the auctioneer. Colonel
George Z. Bellows of Kansas City
who has a national reputation as an
auctioneer OF pure bred stock. and
who presided at the block last year,
will do the spelling again this year.
Harry l.. Summers of Bozeman is
the superintendent of the auction sale
and exhibitors who have stock to Of
fer should notify him before Septem-
Der 1st and send him pedigrees so
that sales list may be made up. Aside
from increasing the number of ex-
lllbits in the livestock department,
the auction sale tends to draw a large
number of men who are interested in
raising thoroughbreds and who come
as prospective purchasers.
The auction sale seems to fill a long
felt want of breeders in Montana
which market sales have failed to do,
and it is believed that it will be con-
ducive to higher breeding i'm all
branches of the livestock industry in
this State.
