10 connection with the opening OF q

on the Shonkin which was recently
purchased by the Milwaukee Land

RAISING PRIZE WHEAT
Adoption Of Latest Scientific Meth
DDS Brought Great Results

DDS Brought Great Results
The exhibit of Montana wheat that
captured the Is. 900 prize at the big
Minneapolis land show was the result
Of good farming. One of the owners
of the exhibit, Joseph P. Nash, of
Clyde Park, Mont, makes the follow.
ing statement as to the methods that
produced such gratifying results:
The five bushels which won the prize
we're grown at an altitude of 4,900
feet where the rainfall does not ex-
coed II to IL inches. One crop had
been produced on the land before we
seeded 1t to this turkey red wheat, the
seed for which came from the G all attn
valley.
We summer fallowed the land in
1911 by blowing with q mould. board
plow less than six inches deep In the
last part of May and first of June
We dragged it down rs DOR as pos
sible after blowing, the idea being to
preserve the moisture by dragging
within two days after blowing or
soone After any rainfall of coase-
quence the ground was dragged as
soon as it was possible TO get onto /,
with O team.
About the first of July we double
disked the field. The last of August
and fret of September it was dragged
and then the seed was planted bv
drilling with a double disk Kentucky
drill, which put it down VI least four
inches. Forty pounds of seed were
used to the acre and we prefer less
rather than more than this amount.
II the land is strong and clean it will
not require this amount.
With such methods of farming
moisture is preserved sufficient to
start the seed to germinate immed-
lately, whether there 10 rain or not.
In the spring of 1912 the field was
narrowed or dragged again as coon
a. the land was dry enough to permit
it. This is done to keep q mulch on
the land and keep it from baking or
drying out.
The soil OF our ranch is o dark
mountain loan, beneath which 10 q
limestone clay subsoil. The wheat
was produced without any artificial
means or subirrigation, though we
have considerable winter snow which
helps preserve the wheat through the
winter.
