CONSIDER AGRICULTURE

One of the leading bankers Of the
state gives the following advice in
recent issue of the Montana Banker:
prob EN- confronting the bankers OF
Montana today is tc, induce dry land
farmers to start milking cows, rats.
Ing hogs, and diversifying their crop.
The movement towards mixed farmtnE
was well under way when the war
boosted the price of wheat. We must
start it going again. and start in at
the bottom by urging the building CT
silos and the planting of feed and for
age crops.
1.-THE next most important problem.
in our opinion, is the putting under
which can be irrigated. 1t is essential
that the area Ct irrigated land be in
creased II dry farming Is continued on
the present large acreage. To this END
every banker should work for a state
bond issue in aid of irrigation dts
tricts."
