Great Falls.--A new method of
dry land farming. known as the
sclod surface system, has come to
the notice of the local farm bureau.
w. N. Robbins Of Kremln is the dis
coVerer of what he says is the sal
fation OF the dry land farmers of
Montana. This is the method:
Use the disc and then plow.
Turn Your dust mulch down. Put
your clods on the surface. That will
prevent the land blowing away, it
will hold the moisture in the dust

years and | have seen land in Tho
b's Bend OF The Columbia and in
eastern Oregon, where dry farming
IS the only possible method OF rails
ing cereals. increase from almost
nothing to more than 5000 an acre.
In the little more than a wear
that | have been at Kremlin I have
preached this clod surface method
and it has been used by a sufficient
number of my neighbors to prove
us advantage over the usual method.
The man who uses the old way and
discs after he plows gets his dust
much at the surface where the sun
draws the moisture out and he gets
a surface root. The man who turns
his dust much under has the c,ods
to protect his moisture from eyapo.
ration and his land from blowing
away, and gets tap root. The tlods
also catch the snow during the vim
ter.
This system is. believe, the
only salvation for farmers along the
high line In some of the towns
near where live some OF the banks
have been converted and are now
giving credit to farmers who sim.
mer pillow. The yield of grain of !
those who have done this has tean
uniformly greater than that OF those |
who used the old method, which Il |

When I was wicked, and down in sin
had no joy nor love within;
left my home and my dear old
mother,
left my sisters and left my
brothers.
All because that Satan had caused
hatred.
In the midst of it all was the
power Of Satan.
Five long years from home I wan
dered,
Hundreds Of dollars for liquor 1
sQuandercd,
For bitter liquor and so-called pleas
ure,
And seeking here and there for
worldly treasure.
told my dear old mother a dev'lsh
lie.
And here l will tell you just the
reason why
had followed the world and listened
That is the one and only cause of
hatred.

When Gods Spirit came down and

Giving me hope OF dwelling in His
great throne.
I wrote my dear mother a joyful let

And told her that God had broken
every fetter.
And now l overflow with love and
with JOY
IN my happiest days since l We're

I asked OF my mother kind word
of forgiveness.
Mother answered; "A wonderful

Though it may have been wicked
and rotten
Make your future life a help and
blessing
To some poor soul that the world
is possessing.
Give to the poor and give to the

And leave worldly treasure and
Satan behind:
Cling TO Jesus forever and follow
Him on:
Tell old Satan Today the battle you've
Bid farewell TO this world. of pleas
