moisture. 1t should be maintained
until wheat is sown in the fall. and
until the end of the open season when
wheat is not sOwn.
This mulch must be renewed after
each cOnsidera BILE rain as soon as the
land gets dry enough to harrow with
out the earth sticking to the harrow
teeth. The fallow must be kept free
from weeds. 1t should also he remem-
bered that the earlier the ground is
plowed, the more moisture 1t will store
up against the time of need.
The wheat crop Of 1913 will largely
depend on what is done by the farm
ers in areas that are known as dry,
between now and the time for SOW
ing winter wheat. If a large crop is
to be reaped in 1918, a large amount
of land should be devoted to fallOw.
There is no good reason why this
should not be done, as there is now
a large amount OF moisture in the soil.

GETTING READY
FOR WINTER WHEAT
(Ry Prof. Shaw

The large amount of moisture in
Northwestern soils brings with it
temptation that may result III harm.
Because the land can be plowed easily
on account of the more than average
amount of moisture in the soil, the
danger is present that flax sowing
will be too long continued. Unduly
late sowing brings with it two dang
ers. One is that the crop may be
hurt by dry weather that may follow
the sowing, aud the other is that the
crop may he hurt by frost before it
natures. It is true at the same time,
that a good yield is possible from
late sOwn crop. But since there is
hazard in sowing it, why should such
hazard be incurred? Will it not be
safer course to follow, to summer fall
low the land to prepare it for sowing
to winter wheat, where the condi-
tlons favor that crop, and to make it
ready for spring grain where they do
not?
With the supply Of moisture that is
now in the ground, it should not be
difficult to hold enough to terminate
fall sOwn wheat when the time comes
for sowing it. The large amount Of
moisture that has fallen since last
August in the Northwestern States is
very liable to throw people off their
guard. The dry farming methods
should not be neglected in any way.
Next season may be very different
from this one. Last autumn rain was
30 abundant that grain could be sown
amid the stubbles with safety. 1t may
be very different next autumn.
As soon as the land is plowed for
the fallow it should be packed. The
disc will usually do this work fairly
well. If the land has been plowed out
of sod, the discs should be so set as
not to tear up the sod. 1t may be
necessary in some instances to weight
the disc. The packing of the land
should be done the day the land is
plowed. II this is not done the soil
will lose all or nearly. all its moisture
IN + ew days, down as far as. the
plow went. It is greatly important
that such moisture should not be lost.
The disc or packer is to be followed
by the harrow, so that fine soil
mulch will be made on the land. This
mulch will prevent the escape of

NAKED ISSUE OF
RIGHT AND WRONG

New York, June 1O.-Thetdore
Roosevelt discusses conditions at Chi
cago in an article entitled "a Naked
Issue of Right and Wrong" to appear
in the current issue of The Outlook.
Mr.. Roosevelt says in part:
1.-THE contest for the republican
nomination now has narrowed down
toa naked issue of right and wrong;
for the issue is simply whether we
shall permit system Of naked fraud,
of naked theft from the people to tri-
umph.
properly speaking, the national
committees only function is honestly
to judge what delegates have prima
facie the right to a seat and to sug-
gest the name Of a temporary chair
man, who shall call the convention to
order. Practically the attempt is be-
ing made by the Taft members to use
the present national committee for the
purpose of unseating honestly elected
delegates and of seating enough fraud
ulently elected delegates,E especially
from the states where there is no
real republican party, to secure the
nomination of Mr.. Taft
After reviewing the primary results
in the various states, Colonel Roose-
velt continues:
Mr.. Taft cannot be nominated un-
less he gets the overwhelming major
ity of the rotten borough states which
never casta republican electoral vote
and in which the delegations represent
only the office holders. Even if he
gets practically all the nandpicked del

FRED UEECK GETS
A HEAVY FINE

For taking junk valued at not to
exceed $50, Fred Ueeck, we'll known
in Judith Gap, was fined $500 by a
Harlowton justice of the peace.
The stuff was taken from Nye's
shearing plant in the Hopley creek
country. 1t consisted of an old piece
Of betting, grind stone and few
tools.
Last yearthe Ueeck brothers bought
a gasoline plow outfit and moved out
to their claims on the forest reserve
south of the Little. Belts. They have
had enough contracts for breaking to
keep them busy all spring. 1t is not
known why the stuff was taken from
the shearing plant, but it was mn-
dOubtedly done to make some repairs
on the plow outfit. The brothers had
good reputation while living here
before going on to their claims, and
it is hard to believe they took the
stuff with the idea Of getting away
with the loot.
Anyhow, Fred was arrested and
taken to Harlowton. Assistant
County Attorney W. G. Husbanl adj
vised Fred to plead guilty and assur-
ed him he would receive the minimum
fine Of 5000 for petit larceny. Fred
took the suggestion, pleaded guilty,
and got $500. Attorney Husband did
all he could to get the minimum fine
placed, but the justice was obdurate.
Fred could not pay the fine, and was
taken to White Sulphur Springs We'd
nesday to serve $50 days.
1t is strange how many men wor-
ried through boyhood without the aid
of the Boy Scout movement.
