GETTING FINE RESULTS FROM
SUMMER FALLOW IN THE NORTH

That the efforts of the 1921 sum
mer fallow club of Harlem are begin
ming to bear fruit in the community
is shown in a recent statement made
by Harold HendricksOn, who lives
near Little Jewel. Hendrickson was
one of a number of farmers who join
ed the club and summer fa1lowed lis
acres. He says that last spring he
would have left the country if he had
not had this land summer fallowed.
He was discouraged with farming, in
debt, and could see no way out.
However, he summer fallowed well
and kept the weeds out, and as a re-
suit this fall he harvested % bu-
shells of wheat an acre. He has be-
come convinced hat summer fallow-
ing is the only method to pursue and
is making arrangements to continue
farming that way in the future.

due to venereal diseases. This also
holds good of the nation as a whole,

for so per cent of the insane. These
may be classed as i%ncurable. We have
a remaining 20 per cen to work with.
Last week we released six. The re-
covery in most instances may be per
manent. Crowded? One can readily
see that of course. Nevertheless, the
federal doctors have paid us the COM
pliment of stating that the Montana
asylum was the best they had seen
in several states.
DIR. Lurton has stated that out Of
10 state institutions Montana gave
the best cooperation, the most en-
enlargement and the best quarters
to the soldier vocational work"
Out of the 1850 now confined, 1873
are natives of Montana. Other states
contributed 818 and foreign coun-
tries I'll. The nativity of 80 was
unknown.
Handsome buildings of pressed
brick and stone grace beautiful lawns
decked with shade trees. Fertile
farms surround the asylum grounds.
The surrounding foothills in the
shifting sunlight of an autumn after
moor lend a panorama of soft colors.
Within the buildings, through the
heavily screened windows, children
who are never to know a completely
rational moment gaze out on the in
viting scene. Old men, whose days
of usefulness are ended, and are fast
falling into %doddering, helpless SEN
ility, gaze out upon the view also
and nod their old heads at times in
appreciation of the kindness and
forethought of the state in selecting
such a charming location for the
home of the mentally unfit.
No Time for Scenery
The tired nurses in the women's
and children's department have little
time for the appreciation of the nat
ural beauties as they fit about the
quarters striving to maintain the
high standard of cleanliness and
order set by the asylum management.
The nurse has time only to keep up
her work to the accompaniment of a
prayer that the powers that be may
moved to provide more room and
speedily.
IF we had continued to receive
lrug cases." said DR.. Scanland, "we
would have been swamped. If the
funds r. used to care for

$50 an acre, it will be seen that the
statement is not far out of the way.
Much of the irrigated lands of Mon
tana will produce bigger yields than
herein suggested. The feeding value
of Montana corr is high and many
varieties outrank the corn of the
middle west in this respect.
1t is believed that the Montana
corn show will bring these facts be-
fore the farmers more forcibly and

MONTANA A CORN STATE

1t Is the belief of corn experts of
the northwest that Montana should,
and will, attain a higher rank as a
corn producing state, and it is the
purpose of the Montana State Corn
Show at Miles City, November IT, IS
and 10 to bring this fact before the
people of this and other common
wealths.
The statement that certain districts
in Montana produce better corn val
ues to the acre than such states as
Iowa is usually met with a certain
amount of derision by those not ia
miliar with the situation. There is,
however, considerable acreage in the
state where cor will run from 35 to
40 bushels. If it be considered that
this production comes from land

while the slow and the heavy must
