The treeless plains. the mountains bare,
The brazen sun,
Fill with vague dread the weary

anced ration; or if the foundation
stock, sire and dam are not of a high
producing strain, the herd viii wane
instead of improve. However, if all
the essential features are strictly OBJ
served, the farmer will be rewarded
by having a very attractive net bal
ance at the end of the year.
In view of the permanent demand
for dairy cattle and products, and the
assurance of stable price, and be-
cause of the fact that dairying is
the important feature Of farming, the
fertility and productiveness of the
soil has not waned but increased, it
is reasonable to assume that if every
farmer would keep herd in propor-
ton to the size of his farm, he would
not suffer financial stumbling blocks
which so often embarrass those farm
ers who do not observe, equally, stock
raising and crop raising.

SHEEP ON THE FARM.

The disposition of congress to give
sheep men a fair tariff on wool is
having the desired effect. Passing
through the country, we see more
sheep than for a long time in the
past.
Another encouraging thing about
It is that the sheep we see are better
than those of a few years ago. We
are learning that it never pays to
keep poor sheep.
Again, our farmers are keeping
their sheep better, which counts
very must in sheep economy. Time
wasted on poor sheep is thrown
away. Time given to the care of the
best possible sheep is money put out
at good interest.
In our haste to get back into the
sheep business, let us not be in 81
much of hurry that we do not work
for the best small herd, and not the
biggest inferior flock. Better few
well-kept than many, all sighted.
Do sheep fit into your other farm
plans? Then get a few and "use
them white"

COUNTY AGENT.

The secretary of the Montana state
fair has forwarded supply of prem
ium lists and entry blanks for the
state fair which will be held during
the week of September II to 18th.
The criticism is frequently heard
that exhibiting at the state fair has
become the job of a professional, and
the exhibits are not representative
of field crops, and that very few
growers are represented in the county
exhibit. To a greater or less extent
this is probably true, and the farm
bureau and county fair boards have
expressed the intention of cO-operat-
ing with the agricultural department
of the state this winter in having
these conditions remedied Whether
or not professionalism in exhibits
can be eliminated and exhibits made
representative of the county, depends
largely upon the growers.
In the meantime all farmers who
are interested in the success of the
state fair and who have exceptional
ly good samples Of grains, grasses OF
vegetables should cooperate by eth
er preparing thee exhibits themselves
or by calling upon Mr. Conkling, who
is in charge of the county exhibit
this year and requesting him to come
and get your material. Anyone de-
string premium lists OF entry blanks
can get them by calling at, or phon-
.ng the county agents office. The
management promises a bigger and
better fair this year and we should
cooperate in making it a success.

FIRST GRAIN GRADING CASE
CONVICTION IN MONTANA

Helena, Aug. 31.-The first convic-
ton in Montana for violation of the
state grain grading law was obtained
at Billings this past week when
Frank Cousins pleaded guilty to act
ing as a public warehouseman. He
was fined. The complaint was sworn
to by John H. Davis, chief of the di-
vision of grain standards and mar
keting, of the department of agricul-
ture, labor and industry. This divis-
on now has inspectors in the field,
and as ample time has been given all
grain dealers to obtain licenses, it is
the intention to proceed summarily
against all unlicensed grain dealers,
as well as persons who have not re-
newed their last years lisenses.
Cousins last year operated eleva-
tors at Huntley and Worden. All
grain licenses automatically expire
June 80 of each year. Cousins APP
piled for new license, but his appli-
cation was rejected until such a time
as he had satisfactorily settled w
with holders Of storage tickets fol
business done in the previous year.
Penalties for violation Of the grain
grading laws range from a fine Of
$25 to 500 for each days business
done without a license to a maximum
fine Of $500 and imprisonment fol
six months in the county Jail.

BRINGS AN INCOME EVERY DAY

The price of dairy products is in
keeping with the cost of labor and
feed, but there is always a fair mar
gin Of profit. Returns from the dairy
are not once each year, but a good
cow makes an income every day, at
least three hundred years of the year.
The skim milk alone has a feeding
value almost equal to whole milk, and
the value of the calf ranges from ten
to fifty per cent of the value of the
cow. In addition to furnishing our
most appreciated food, the dairy cow
plays a very important part in main
tanning the fertility Of the soil.
The number of dairy cows in our
county has increased from $685., O94
in 1850 to 23,747,0O0 in 1920. Wis
consin stands at the head, having L.
$4,000, and New York second with
1,493,000. Minnesota has 1,395,O00,
and Iowa 1,353,000. Illinois and Ohio
have about 1,060,0 each. Wisconsin
has approximately 1,72O cheese fac
tories and New York 995. Mime

duction of butter, having 848 cream

In any of the other more important
dairy states. The return from Min
nesota are truly wonderful when we
consider that less than one-half the
state observes dairying. The records
show that during the year 1919 Min
nesota produced 153, ,2OO4 pounds
of creamery butter. The farmers in
one county in that state received ST.
429, 600 for butter alone. Twenty-nine
other counties ranged from 81 OO0,-
600 to $4.00OO0O. While the aggre.

GrasshOppers Breeding Now.
Grasshoppers are now collecting
on their breeding grounds and VIII
be laying their eggs for the next

keep watch for these breeding
grounds, plainly mark them, and
make it a point, where cultivation is
possible, to thoroughly cultivate and
stir up the ground this fall or early
next spring, so that as soon as the
eggs hatch, the young hoppers can be
poisoned. Wherever eggs are being
laid this fall, it is pretty safe that
unless they are destroyed, we will
have lot of grasshoppers next year
Start Campaign October First
The farm bureau has requested
that the T. B. campaign be started
October first, that all cattle in the
county not tested last winter anC
spring be tested, and that the few
herds where diseased animals were
found be retested this fall. We want
to start in October first, so that
most or all of the work can be com
pleted before roads become impas
sible from snow. 1t will be conduct
ed by school districts and it is impor
tant that every herd be tested as WE
progress. The test will be made
without any cost to the farmer o.
stockman, but they VIII be expected
to have their cattle in a barn or cor

DAIRY STOCK MUST
BE FREE FROM 7. B.

The battle being waged against tu-
berculosis in livestock, which has
been carried on in Gallatin valley, is
one that should be kept up for all
time. The present situation in the
county is good, as there has been a
great deal of work done through the
efforts of the county farm bureaus,
which have been so ably assisted by
County Agent Bodley.
What it means to a community to
let one case of tuberculosis go unno-
ticed is very wildly illustrated in an
article sent to this office covering a
condition found to exist in Illinois.
The action of the authorities in taking
drastic action in this case demon
