POTATOES DUE FOR A
DECLINE IN PRICES

'Potatoes can't keep the present
price level,' declares an Equity pro-
duce distributor. "The crop in Mon
tana is the largest in our history and
no part of it is yet on the market.
Wait until potatoes begin to move and
prices must come down. We have
learned the potato crop is generally
good in the west and middle west
whereas many grain crops were a
failure. That, too, would indicate that
lower prices must come.

Farmer Pays for Holdings
In Past Two Years.

The plan was first put into effect
about three years ago. Its operation
has been very successful. Thirty-five
or 40 farmers have bought land on
the company's holdings, around Gey-
ser, and the big wheat years that they
have had recently have had the effect
of reducing their Indebtedness ma
terially. One farmer in that Sec
ton, who bought 16O acres from the
company three years ago, has realized
enough money from wheat grown last
season and this to pay for his hold
ings. He threshed 1000 bushels Of
grain this year. On the list of the
farmers who are indebted to the CON-
pany, his name is like that of Abou
Ben Adhem-it leads all the rest. 9th
er farmers hae done almost as well.
Some of the land is sold as low as
$40 per acre. The quality of this
cheaper land, however, is not very de-
sirable. The better class of land sells
all the way from $25 to $55. The $50
land constitutes a record price Tor
some land sold last fall, which was in
crop.

Carrots for Horses,

Save the carrots that are too small
for market or for the cellar, fer your
horses. The animals love them and
they are better than condition pow
ders. A few feedings of the smaller
carrots, chopped so that the horses can
eat them easily will give your ami
mails that sattiny coat that any horse
man is proud of.

Bonfires Keep Off Frost.

Steens Point, Wis.-Irvin Smith, a
town Of Belmont farmer, used bonfires
to save fine 1O-acre potato field
from the frosts. He and his sons
hauled two loads Of old pine stumps
and set up several piles about the
threatened field. The fires during
the night saved the crop, while others
in that district were destroyed.
At the present price Of potatoes,
Smith is ahead about 81, 500 as re-
suit.

Company Is Lenient
With Land Purchasers.

The company is very lenient with
farmers who make purchases on the
crop payment plan. Their idea is to
develop the farm possibilities of the
section, where they have large hold
ings, and the farmer who makes an
honest effort to grow crop and fails,
is given every consideration. The far
mer agrees to plant certain per cent
age of the land, and within 60 days
after harvesting the crop must deliver
to the nearest railway station to the
company's order one half of the crop
grown. The company sells the crop
and credits the farmer with the
amount realized from the sale. The
purchaser undertakes to pay in the
entire purchase price Of the land with
in ten years.
"We are very well pleased with the
operation Of the plan," said Mr.. Har-
low. "We satisfy ourselves that the
farmer who desires to purchase our
land on this easy basis is man who
knows his business and has enough
money to carry himself and his family
over for the first year. Mother Ma
ture does the rest. Practically all

from us on this basis are doing nice

Cover With Earth.

Raspberries can best be protected
from drying winds and low tempera-
lures by bending over the canes and
covering them with soil. This should
be done as late as possible in the fall
vet before the ground is frozen. Some
of the soil should be removed from one
side of the row with either pillow or
hoe, the canes bent over to that side
until they are in horizontal position,
and then entirely covered with soil to
a depth of three or four inches. Often
in practice the canes are bent over so
that the top is alongside the next hill.

canes to hold them down, and the re-
