lie knows nothing but the tariff and
has a false idea about that. Mr..
Bryan made public assault upon
him last year, because he was re-
dictionary. He will draft the new
tariff for revenue bill for the demo-
Gratis. and the bill will be passed by
the democratic house, because the
south will have II majority there, and
they are all for free trade.
Mr.. Walsh called attention to the
miserable manner in which the in.
terror department of the present gov
ernment is being conducted, and be-
lieved that the western people should
vote for the democratic party if for
no other reason than to have a change
in the general land office. But lie did
not call attention to the fact that un-
der Cleveland man named Sparks
was the commissioner of the general
land Office, and he was the most ty.
ranical official who ever occupied
that position. 1t was almost impos-
sible for settler to comply with the
arbitrary rulings Of this most obnox-
ious officer. and he brought great dis
credit upon very much discredited
administration. The same mistake
might be made again, rs the eastern
plutrocrat in both the democratic and
republican parties is against giving
the public domain away to home
steaders. He did not promise Il re.
form i'll this office if the democrats
should win. but there would be a
change.
Mr.. Walsh stated that the
Northern Pacific railroad had receiv-
ed land grant Of every odd number
ed section of government land for for
ty miles Oh each side of the railroad
from st. Paul to Seattle. That in
this grant the railroad fell heir to ov-
er million acres Of land up the side
of Mt. Rainier in Washington. That
the mountain was 4 burned out VOL
c2nO ana no vegetation OH any pOr-
tion of it; that 4 senator of Montana
had persuaded the secretary of the in
terror to place this mountain in the
forest reserve, and trade million
acres of land lying outside Of the Or
iginal grant to the Northern Pacific
in lieu of the barren sides Of Mt.
Rainier. The company consequently
selected these lands in different parts
Of Montana, and that a large amount
Of it was taken out of Meagher and
Fergus county. But Mr.. Walsh did
not offer any remedy whereby the
government could repossess itself Of

SELECTION OF
MONTANA SEED

One Of the very important functions
OF the Montana Seed Growers ASSOC
citation, which was organized short
time ago. is to find out where good
seeds may be purchased. During the
winter and early spring. there is much
inquiry for seeds of all sorts. Farm
ers who live in the state, as well az
the farmers and dealers outside OF
the state desire to procure Montana
grown seeds. They ask for alfalfa
seed, early maturing strains of corn.
flax. wheat. oats, barley, spring rye
and other farm seeds.
Good service can be rendered to
purchasers and the splendid grains
which are raised in the state can bo
advertised and profitable markets pro-
cured ii farmers and others who have
seeds of good quality for sale would
inform the secretary Of the Seed Grow
ers' association. Buyers of seeds are
most anxious to procure seed Of good
quality. Of course they do not de.
sire to pay unreasonable prices, hut
are willing to pay high prices for good
stuff. There are now many good farm-
ers in the state and seeds of very high
quality must be available.

IT PAYS TO STACK
YOUR GRAIN EARLY

Todays successful farmer is very
different sort of farmer than the sue.
cessful farmer of a decade ago.
The successful farmer of today
must know something of the science
of farming and also something of the
business side Oh farming. These must
be combined in working proportion
Either without the compliment of the
other, is not sufficient to produce sue
cess in it's most economical, practical,
profitable maxium. The fact that
many farmers have made money and
have apparently been successful with
out a recognition of the science of
farming, without the aid of systematic
plans for field management, and with
out any system of farm accounts, does
not signify that they could not have
made more money, with less labor.
with infinitely greater economy. and
therefore have achieved greater sue
cess. had they employed these recog.
nized aids and necessaries in their
farm operations.
The few who have made a success
without these have done so in spite
of the handicap they worked under.
rather than because OF 1t. Failures in
many instances are directly due to a
lack of farm science. employment of
system, and intimate knowledge of
business princiDles.
We question If there is one per cent
of the farmers Of North Dakota who
Judith Gap journal. [volume] (Judith Gap, Mont.) 1908-19??, 1912-11-01

have considered the stacking of grain
from business standpoint. Does it
pay. in hard dollars and cents, to stack,
or shall We continue to thresh from
the shock as is the common practice?
When We experience fall such as
we have had for the past month, al
most everyone will agree that stacked
grain will give better quality seed
than grain that has been subject to
the continued rains and wet weather.
Carefully and accurately conducted
experiments and Investigations in
Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois show that
stacking grain pays in actual dollars
and cents.
Stacking prevents deterioration,
makes grain a better color, with plump.
er kernels. and with smaller per
cent spoiled or sprouted. Exact com
parisOns of cost of stacking and thresh-
ing from the shock are available on
practically every kind of grain COM
mon in North Dakota. These CON-
parisOns on the same field, under sim
liar weather conditions, and with the
same average yields show as apparent
~ additional cost for stacking of IL
cents per bushel yield. This apparent
additional cost is Offset. however, by
the insurance against bleached, sprout-
ed or bin-burnt grain and by the I'M
prOvement of grade.
Improvement in grade of stacked
grain is often sufficient to pay the en-
tire additional cost for stacking and
give from to 3 cents additional profit
per hushel yield. Only when machines
and labor are quickly available soon
after harvest and uniform weather
conditions positive. will standing in
the shock be Offset, since in standing,
loss of grade is no slight item. Shock
threshing Of seed grain is even then
questionable. since stacking seed grain
insures plumper kernels. of unimpaired
vigor and strong vitality.
We know North Dakota farmers
who annually stack the grain from
three-quarters or more. These men,
even in such falls as 1911 and 1912,
have no difficulty in getting their fall
plowing done. These men, too. are
among the progressive farmers, since
they combine science and business,
to the end that their farms improve
and at the same time their bank ac-
count grows.
On a much larger number of farms
OF the state. under prevailing condi-
tfons of climate, availability of ma
chimes and Of labor, stacking would in
dicate better management.

these lands selected in lieu and re-
store them to the homesteaders of
the country.
Mr.. Walsh stated that patriotism
was burning low in the breasts of
those American citizens who annual
ly tlocked to Canada to take up lands
and become subjects of King George,
and accused the invisible government
OF being responsible for this tremen-
dous migration of people and money,
but he did not guarantee that the
Wilson administration would not be
controlled by the same invisible in
tuences as now control.
Mr.. Walsh promised to stand with
the progressive democrats in the con-
gress on all measures of 4 progressive
nature. There is no doubt about this
matter in any mans mind who knows
Mr.. Walsh. All his public acts tend
to confirm this opinion. But he did
not explain that in the democratic
senate, if it is democratic. the rule of
seniority absolutely prevails in the
makeup of the standing committees.
The most powerful committee of the
senate is that on finance, which cor

the enactment OF the Aldrich tariff
law of 1909. He joined his friend
Bailey of Texas in supporting the no.

reactionary, opposed to progress at
all points; a tory of the ultra type.
With these two powerful committees.

Mr.. Walsh knows well that the pro-
gressives will be unable to secure any

A GREAT SPEECH
BY 7. ]. WALSH

The editor of the journal was in
Lewistown NJ onday night and attend
ed the democratic rally held IN the
opera house. The speakers were j.
N. Evans. candidate for congress,
and T. J. Walsh. candidate for Z. s.
senator.
Mr.. Evans was the first speaker,
and prepared the way for the princi-'
pal speaker by relating some humor-
GUS anecdotes, thus getting the audi
ence in a pleasant frame of mind.
Mr.. Evans is Il fluent talker, gracious
in his demean0r. and able in argu.
ment.
Mr.. Walsh followed, and for over
two hours held his audience in rapt
attention. 1t was an argument of the
lawyer to jury, and was filled with
forceful facts, illustrating the reason
for the great success of this little
giant of the Rockies in the practice
Of his profession Of the law.
His trained and master mind held
the big audience spell bound as he
drove home sledge hammer blows
against predatory wealth acting us
the invisable government under Taft,
establishing the fact that the speaker
1s progressive of pr0gressives, and
all the time craftily concealing the
remedy for all the political wrongs
which the democratic party is going
to right when placed in power. In
this he showed the skill of the train.
ed and successful criminal lawyer.
1t was a greet speech as much in
what he did not say as In what he
said. His listeners, however, were
impressed with the fact that they
were hearing the wrongs of the ad-
ministration controlled by Barnes,
Penrose and Crane presented to them
In language that burned into the soul,
but the orator avoided mentioning
how the Wilson administration was
going to get rid of Boss Sullivan,
Boss Taggart, Boss Murphy. and
Thomas Ryan, the protector Of
preditory wealth.
He promised 2 gradual reduction
Of the tariff, but he did not explain
that Oscar Underwood is the chair
man Of the ways and means commit
tee in the hous and will remain, in
that position if the democrats win on
