(By WILLIAM A. FREEHOFF.)
Did you ever realize the large mum
Der of topics included under tillage
such as preparation of land, seeding,
care of crop, kinds of crop in order to
improve the mechanical condition of
the soil?
This is in it's broadcast sense, of
course. The narrower view of the
subject would include, strictly speak
ing, blowing, narrowing, cultivating
and rolling.
The advantages of fall blowing are:
1t facilitates the putting in of the
crop to have portion of the spring
work done in fall; the action of the
frost and other elements tend to pull
verize the land; all soils, but particu-
larly stiff, clayey one, will then re-
tain moisture better
When grass lands are top dressed
with manure, spring blowing, especial
ly on light soils, is preferable for the
following reasons: The work can be
done early; the coarser manure is re-
moved out of the way of cultivation;
the liquid will have had time to leach

notary public, and had the paper

have an opportunity of making the
coveted sum.
But the girl baked at his going
away, as she feared he would forget
her. His promise to return in three
years and go through the wedding
ceremony did not satisfy the young
woman at all, so they appeared be-

agreement drawn up, according to the
terms of which they are to wed March

to get a good start; land washing
is much ! IS severe
Try both methods on your farm and
carefully note results. Comparison
with your neighbors might prove val
liable, Also
Plow deep, by all means, unless the
subsoil is of such nature as to render
this impossible. Work gradually to a
greater depth. The land so treated
will conserve moisture better, holding
a greater rainfall.
The object of narrowing should be
to simply drag the surface, pulverize
the soil, kill weeds, and put in grass
seeds in the very best condition.
Shallow and frequent cultivation is
best. Deep cultivation is death to
good root growth.
1t requires more judgment to do
rolling at the proper time and in the
proper way, than to use any other I'm

soil must be, but not hard. It is i'm

SUIT TO PREVENT PURCHASE
Action Intended to Defeat Effort of
City of Fort Benton to Buy
Light Plant Begun.

Fort Benton.-Suit has been com

teau county against the city of Fort
Benton, its mayor and city clerk, fol
the purpose of defeating the purchase
by the city of the electric light plant
or the erection of new one. An or
der has been signed by Judge Tatten,
restraining the city officials from sign
ing or delivering $4,000 in bonds re-
Gently voted by the city for the pur-
pose of acquiring light plant
The plaintiff claims to be acting in
behalf of numerous taxpayers who are
opposed to the project. 1t is alleged
in the complaint that if the bonds are
issued, the Indebtedness of the city
will then exceed the constitutions
al limitation of per cent of the tax
able property and would therefore be
void
A movement was started last year
for municipal light plant, but during
the negotiations the Great Falls Power
company secured control of the local
plant and it is believed it is opposed
to selling the plant to the city, and to
city ownership.
Bonds for the purchase of a plant in
the amount of $4,000 have been con.
tracted for with Ferris & Hardgrove
OF Spokane, but they have not been
issued and delivered.
The purchase of the Benton Light
company by the big concern up the
river is held by some to be a part of
plan to secure monopoly of the
light and power business in northern |
Montana.
