FIVE BUSHELS WIN $4,000 PRIZE
Good Dry Farming Cause, Says J. p.
Nash, Montana Grower.

Nash, Montana Grower.
Minneapolis, Minn.-Good dry farm
ing methods produced the wheat which
won for Nash & Bridgeman of Clyde
Park, Mont, the $4,000 prize for the
best five bushels of wheat exhibited
at the Minneapolis Land show, accord
ing to Joseph P. Nash, who gives a
description of the methods used in rails
ing the wheat.
Nash was here with his wife and six
children to claim the $4,000 prize and
take it back to Montana with him. He
called at the office of the exposition
and was given a certified copy of all
scores and an order for the Big Four
"30' gas tractor, Emerson-B rantingham
plows, etc. Then he called on Presi-
dent Howard Elliott of the Northern
Pacific railway and received further
congratulations. He told Mr.. Elliott
how the wheat was raised and demon
strated that good dry farming methods
or just common sense, will produce
not only good wheat but the maximum
yield per acre.
Grown at 1900 Feet.
"The five bushels which won the
prize were grown at an altitude of
1900 feet where the rainfall does not
exceed II to 18 inches. One crop had
been produced on the land before we
seeded it to this turkey red wheat, the
seed for which came from Gallatin
valley" said Nash.
1--WE summer fallowed the land in
1911 by blowing with mould-board
pillow less than six inches deep in the
last part of May and first of June
We dragged it down as soon as pos
sible after blowing, the idea being to
preserve the moisture by dragging
within two days after blowing or
sooner. After any rainfall of conse-
quence the ground was dragged as
soon as it was possible to get onto it
with team.
Forty Pounds Of Seed to Acre.
After the first of July we double
disked the field. The last of August
and first of September it was dragged
and then the seed was planted by drill
Ah5 WIN q AOuDAO 0Aoh ICACuChy WILL,
which put it down at least four inches.
Forty pounds of seed were used to the
acre and we prefer less rather than
more than this amount. If 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 terminate immediate
ly whether there is rain or not.
"In the spring of 1912 the field was
narrowed or dragged as soon as the
land was dry enough to permit it.
Once or twice later we dragged it.
This is done to keep a mulch on the
land and keep it from baking or dry
ing out.
Loan With Limestone SubsoiI.
"The soil of our ranch is a dark
mountain loan, beneath which is a
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"

SHORT ON BROTHERLY LOVE
Luckily William Had Grace Enough to
Remember That Henry "a
Was Sacred.

William was not kind to his small
brother Henry; in fact, he looked upon
him as a nuisance. a scourge sent from
heaven to try his spirit and spoil his
fun. Especially that day was Henry
a thorn in the older boys flesh. In
his efforts to rid himself of his burden.
William resorted to all the methods
the mind of youth suggested, but in
vain. Henry continued to stick as
close. IL not closer. than a brother.
William" finally said the boys
father. who had witnessed, unheard,
the final paroxysm Of the unequal
struggle, you should be ashamed of
yourself to treat your little brother in
that way! He ought to be sacred to
you"
William made no reply: but short.
ly a~fterward, believing himself to be
free of surveillance, he al heard to
address Henry thus: Always taggin'
after me! II you weren't sacred I'd
break your blamed face for you!'-
