CEREAL EXPERIMENTS AT
JUDITH BASIN SUB-STATION

Washington, d. c., Oct. 18.-The
results of cereal experiments conduct
ed at the Judith Basin Substation.
Moccasin, Montana, by the Bureau of
Plant Industry and the Montana Ag-
riculture Experiment Station, are
given in Department Bulletin 39S re-
Gently published by the Department
Of Agriculture. Included in the report
are such conclusions as seem warrant
ed to the investigators. This substa-
( tion, which has an altitude Of 400
feet, is located in Fergus county, CEN

varieties were tested is drak gray

airy prosperity resulting from the war
is not a sound or stable condition and
such fact should be plain to our
workers.
Ample evidence is at hand that in a
short period previous to the war, we
were approaching an industrial paraly-
sis. When the present war is over,
Europe will wage desperate trade
war to regain the trade she has lost
Then, indeed, will the present Under
wood tariff prove not a protection
but serious menace to our industries
The presidential and his party de-
clare that the present tariff law is
sound and scientific. If the Under.
wood tariff is correct why does he pro-
pose tariff commission. Let Us
have law which guarantees protec-
tion.
Conditions are now extraordinary
Far better for tariff commission to
find that We have too much protection
than too little. In the former, the
tariff can be reduced without injury
to industry. In the latter the indus
try may be ruined before the tariff
can be raised.

barley as early in the spring as soil
and climatic conditions will permit.
The highest average yield of oats
was obtained from the Sixty Day var
iety. This variety averaged about
lG bushels per acre more than later
maturing varieties.
The best rate Of seeding for the
small-kerneled early varieties of oats
such as the Sixty Day, is about 4
pecks per acre.
The White Smyrna barley, brow
ed bearded hulled variety, has given
the highest average yield.
The hulled varieties of barley are
seeded at the rate of 5 pecks and the
naked varieties at the rate Of pecks
per acre.
The highest yield of fax in a s.
year test was obtained from the Rus
sian variety.
It is probable that the best results
will be obtained if flax is sown early
between April Is and May l. The
best rate seems to be from 20 to 25
pounds per acre.
| In pounds per acre, the average
yield of the White Smyrna barley is
greater than that of the best variety
of any OF the other ccriaI crops. The
Kharkof winter wheat is second in
yield, followed by the 'Sixty-Day oats,
the Nepal naked barley, the Pelissier
| spring wheat, and the Russian flax.

conferes. They have a strong repre-
sentation on both our state and ma
tional tickets and there isn't a sore
head in the bunch.
Former United States Senator Joe
Dixon, manager of the Roosevelt cam
paign four years ago, is working
tooth and nail for the success of the
republican ticket. He didn't wait for
the Chicago Convention to declare
himself, but anticipated the action of
his party leaders by three months and
with his newspaper, is making a most
effective campaign for Hughes and
the state ticket throughout western
Montana.
That Miss Jeannette Rankin will be
elected to Congress, / haven't the
slightest doubt, as will George Farr,
bullmoose candidate for the supreme
court four years ago. Charlie Pray,
former member of Congress is run
ming like stake horse for the United
! States senate, and will have 10000
votes to spare over Senator Myers,
who is seeking reelection.
Whatever strength the democrats
had in the state two months ago is
dwindline as the election approaches
and confidently expect that Montana
will not only give Mr.. Hughes a
splendid majority, but will send a re-
publican senator and two republican
representatives to Washington to car
ry out the constructive sensible pro-
gram outlined in the national plat
form.

Why Hughes Should Be Elected
BY Thomas A. NARROW, Republican National
MOntan
Montana.

The Democrats cannot fool the far
mers of Montana with this buncombe
that prosperity is attributable to
democratic legislation. Our people
are far too intelligent to accept any
such doctrine as that
They realize that the prices they
are getting for their products today
are due entirely to the European war
and that they are getting them in
spite Of, and not through the assist
ance Of, the democratic administration
in Washington.
The wool growers of Montana have
their six-cent wool experience from
the Cleveland regime; the beet grow
ers have vivid recollection of the
collapse of our vast sugar-beet in
dustry under democratic government
al theories; the stock growers have
only to look at the market sheets to
see that democratic successes in ma
tional campaigns have invariably made
prices tumble; the lumber men have
had the leanest days of their expert
ence under democratic rule; the min
ing industry suffered severely in COM
petition with foreign ores by foreign
cheap labor.
Our orchards, our grain fields and
our fax industry have reflected the
blight of democratic legislation in the
influx of these products from the vast
empire Of Western Canada which ad-
joins US.
Bald statements from imported
democratic campaign speakers, whose
very words betray an utter ignorance
of the conditions in Montana, do not
stand the acid test of the Montanan
Our people are familiar with actual
conditions and they realize that if the
democrats remain ip power, the min
ute the war is over down will go mar
ket prices until, instead OF prosperity
they will face ruin and disaster.
Mr.. Hughes made a splendid i'm
preston in Montana Not only in the
farming and stockCrowing sections
was he greeted with the utmost enthu-
siasm, but in the great labor centers
like Butte, he found a large sympa-
thetic audiences which cheered his Ut
terances and extended him a thorough

will illustrate: 1t was learned in Bill

to the train schedule, tine Hughes par

half an hour the people Of Billings col

ARTIFICIAL PROSPERITY

In an interview with the writer in
New Haven, Connecticut, in the mid
die Of April, 1919, William Howard
Taft coined the expression "artifcial
prosperity" Nine months before that
month OF April the European war was
still thing Of the future, the I'm
derwood Tariff was getting in it's fine
work and the business of the nation
was headed toward the rocks.
But by April 1915, the belligerent
nations had sought the American mar
ket for food stuffs, merchandise, and
war supplies, and the business boom
that has been increasing ever since
was on, although the general public
had not grasped the reason.
"To what do you attribute the re-
markable growth of the nations bust
ress," the former president was ask
ed.
And old Bill Taft,
He just laft.
"Artificial prosperity" was all he
said for moment. Then he added
"This country is about to pass thru
one of the greatest eras of prosperity
in its history. 1t will last until the
war is over. Then everything is go
ing plumb to-Well, look out-that's s
all"

MIGHTY LANDSLIDE OF VOTES
FOR ROBIWSOWFOR GOVERNOR
At the Primary Election Tues
day is the Predictions of
Campaign Managers.

HUNTINGTON. juno 3.-That hO
expects to carry the state by a large
majority in the primary election next
Tuesday was the declaration made
today by Judge Robinson before
leaving for ParkcrsburG where he
spoke tonight. Cabell county voters
gave Judge Robinson an enthusiastic
reception upon his visit here and II Is
predicted freely tonight that he will
get three-fourths OF the Republican
vote OF the county.
During his visit here Judge Robin
son received reports from supporters
in various parts OF the state which
indicate that his majority in tho pri-
mary will be even greater than he had
figured and there are good reasons
suit in landslide for hts candidacy.
Following his speech here dozens
OF voters who had boon classed as
supporters Of his opponent called up
on Judge Robinson and assured him
that he would have their support.
Similar reports came TO him here
from other parts Of the state, and
when he left Huntington II was with
a feeling OF confidence that the vOt-
ers OF the state want him for their
next governor and will nominate him
in the coming primary,
Reports reaching here are 20 the
effect that there is strong drifting
sentiment toward Robinson and that
there Is no question about his win
ming the nomination, Not a discour-
aging report reached the candidate on
his visit here but everywhere his sup
porters displayed absolute confidence
in the result Of the primary.
Those familiar with the situation
declared that Il looks like a mighty
