PROFIT MADE IN

Sweet peas do not need any special

must have light, sandy leaf mold and

advocates a briny atmosphere neces-

who lives in the west thinks inland
air the best for sweet peas. Wherever
you live and whatever your soil and
climate, grow sweet peas and make
the best of existing circumstances.
Here are few pointers by one who
has grown sweet peas in the middle
west which were awarded prizes. and
we found no mystery in their growth
or care.
Select a sunny locality, and have
the rows run north and south. Dig
the soil deply and stir in plenty OF
well rotted COW manure-other ma
nure will do if COW is not to be had.
Wait until the frost is out of the
sell to do this Even if the earth
freezes it will not hurt the sown seed.
After the soil is well spaded and en-
riched. firm it well, and then run two
burrows two inches deep and eight or
ten inches apart Cover the seeds,
and firm the soil. You may soak the
seeds for "a hours before planting il
YOU wish. Sow the seeds thickly. and
only when the vines begin to spin
thin out so that the vines stand three
inches apart
Remember that sweet peas like a
firm soil and therefore, when it is
necessary to have them to kill the
weeds. firm the soil well about the
pea stalks.
If the season is very dry. water,
and when the flowers begin to bud

For Better Farmlna.

A unique idea has been started by
Brown-Fagley Co. to encourage the
ranchers in vicinity of Lewistown to
raise better oats. This firm is Offer
ing $25 In prizes to the rancher in
vicinity Of Lewistown for the best and
second best bushel of oats submitted
to them between September 1st and
November LIST. Judges will be chosen
and the prize winners picked.
Movements Of this kind are an en-
couragement to the rancher, and leads
the rancher to take more interest in
the quality of his crops. and as the
Judith Basin has the soil and climate
to make it the garden spot Of Mon
tana, it is only up to the rancher to
make 1t such, by seeding good clean
seed and diversified farming.
We hope that the ranchers will take
advantage Of this offer and get In line
for prize, as anybody interested in
the welfare and betterment Of the Ju-
dith Basin should.
