WON GRAND APPLE PRIZE.

San Francisco, CAL, Nov. 3d.
(SpeciaD-Montana stepped promi-
nently to the front as horticultural
state, last Saturday, when the apple
display at the Panama-Pacific expo
sition was awarded the grand prize.
The award was given for the biggest
and best display of apples shown at
the fair and in addition to this big
victory growers of the state received
68 medals and awards for individual
entries. These included one award
of honor, seven gold medals, 27 silver
medals, II bronze medals and IA hon.
orable mentions. 1t is expected that
additional awards will be announced
in horticulture before the exposition
closes, as some of the fruit was judged
late.
Montana potatoes of the 1915 crop
vere given two awards of honor, a
gold medal and bronze medal. Com
missioner Frank Hazelbaker is re-
ceiving congratulations from con-
tending exhibitors for the signal Win
ming of Montana in apples, an award
hardly expected by many Montanans
who do not realize the horticulture
possibilities Of the state.

WHY BUILD A SILO

The first and probably most import
ant point in favor of the silo is the
saving Of feed. Bundle corn left in
the field or stack loses from one third
to one-half of it's feeding value
through evaporation. This statement
may seem absurd to many, because as
far as we can see with the eye there
is nothing gone in we'll cured fodder,
but the moisture; but upon analysis
the chemists find loss of nutrients
as we'll as moisture. This is due to
drying out and dry fermentation.
Succulent feed is natures feed. Fod-
der and grasses in their green state
are the best feed we can get for our
stock. When dried out it loses mois-

DOES TILLAGE
INCREASE RAINFALL

Many very optimistic persons have
been comforting themselves with the
idea that the conditions in the arid
states will be improved by increased
rainfall as result of tilling larger
acreage of land. Such persons claim
to have seen a change in climate in
Kansas and Texas from this cause
However, the Arizona agricultural ex-
tension service states that no more
moisture could be evaporated from the
cultivated soil and crops than had
already fallen in the form of rain,
which is the only source of moisture
in a region far from large bodies OF
water. Hence the moisture thus CIV
en- off would not increase the rainfall
because the rainfall itself had not sup
piled the additional moisture in the
first place. Weather records in the
past kept for over 100 years show no
increase in rainfall during that time.
However, it is true that irrigation has
1nCT0dSou Inc AOCdl VI
valleys perceptibly, but this increase
in the local humidity has not increa-
sed the local rainfall. The fact is that
improved methods of moisture con-
servation by tillage, the growing OF
drouth resistant crops, and the plant
ing of trees have utilized more fully
the existing rainfall, SO that flourish
ing crops in the place of barren plains
give the general impression that the
rainfall has increased and the climate
changed. The arid region farmer
should utilize every source of mois-
ture, including rainfall, flood waters,
and pumped water, to insure the sue
cess of his crops. And then he should
always farm as if the next year were
going to be the driest in the history
of the Observation-Disclosures Record.
The Glasgow courier., 1915-12-03
(OTE other readers wish
ANYTHING appear in theseco kindly send it in

the moisture from sweating grain to
escape.
These essentials are most perfect
ly secured by proper storage in an
attic, as careful tests have shown that
better results were obtained from
such storage than from any other.
Cellars in which there are furnaces
are excellent; others are likely to be
too damp. If it is impossible to use
any of the house in this way, suitable
places can be found in tool houses or
other farm buildings.
A frame of 2x4's may be built from
two to six feet square and strongly
braced. If chicken netting is then
stretched over both sides in such a
way that the holes match, the ears
may be thrust through and stored
very cheaply. They may be swung
from the roof in strings, held by ball
ing wire or binding twine, or may be
stuck on nails driven into an upright
4x4 post from which the corners have
been trimmed so as to make room for
eight rows of nails instead of only
four. Mice may be kept from this
seed corn tree by mailing tin around
the bottom just above the base or by
inserting hook in the top by means
of which the tree with it's load may be
hung with wire from the roof.
