THAT DEPOT A BOX

Now that the Commercial Club is
looking the field over to see what
work is waiting to be done this year
the old matter of a mail box or two
at the depot ome to mind. These
are a real need and would be a great
convenience and time saver for the
public and it seems improbable that
the postal department has any OBJ
lection to putting boxes in place if
the matter was put up to the right
officials in the right manne and the
need and demand made emphatic.
1t looks like a nice little job for
a club secretary or special committee.

in SEED
FREE TESTS

Seed wheat and other seed grains
of Montana are of good weight and
in all cases show a high percentage
of termination according to the re-
suits obtained from tests made at the
Montana Seed Testing Laboratory.
Corn, it is reported, is of exception
ally high quality.
However, from the standpoint of
purity in many sample which have
been received for testing, there is
one serious defect. Spring wheat
samples are frequently found to car
ry mixtures of winter wheat, and
Durum wheat is often found in sam
piles of Marquis and other hard red
spring varieties. Mixtures of winter
and spring wheat, when used for fall
seeding, result in-poor stands because
the spring wheat winter-kills; and II
used for spring seeding the winter
wheat is not likely to produce nor
mally. Mixtures of Durum and Mar
quis, and like varieties of spring
wheat are likely to result in a fnan-
cial loss when the crop is marketed
because it will grade mixed wheat.
The seed laboratory of the expert
ment station at Bozeman is anxious
to be of service to all farmers who
desire to know the purity and per-
centage termination of any seed they
expect to use for planting next spring
and the laboratory will make tests
of all seeds and report promptly the
value from the standpoint of crop
production. Tests of this character
are made free of charge and, further
more, sacks in which seed may be
sent to the Laboratory for testing
will be furnished gratis upon appH-
cation to the laboratory.

earth receives only one hundred and fifty-nil-
lionth part of the radiant energy of the sun, but
even so, calculations have been made that the
earth receives, on surface of 10000 square
kilometers, assuming only six hours as an eff
fective day, quantity of heat that corresponds
to that produced by burning 3,650,000,000 tons
of COAL
Of the portion of solar energy received by
the earth, DR.. Little said, only about one three
hundredth part is stored up by plants, but that
heat has been calculated to produce $4,000, 000,-
900 tons of vegetable matter which, if burned,
would develop quantity of heat equal to that
derived from the combustion of 1,000000,000
tons of coal.
Radio active elements, the speaker said, lose
spontaneously much of the energy with which
they are surcharged, but they have brought
scientific recognition of stores of energy con-
cealed in matter which are UNNECESSARILY greater
than those derived from chemical reactions.

USELESS KNOWLEDGE
BY WALT MASON

With many vain and useless things
my memory is stored; | know the
histories of kings, and of the lands
they bored; l know Of happenings on
earth long centuries ago; if any fact
has little worth, that fact I'm sure to
know. But when my motor car breaks
down, and will no longer choo, and /
am forty miles from town, don't know
what to do. | lift the hood and view
the works, and raise my loud lament,
and all know of ancient Turks won't
help me worth a cent. And l am
versed in all the lore that pleased the
ancient Greeks, but that can't make my
head less sore-the carbureter leaks.
And l can stand on end and quote the
poets by the hour, but l can't figure
why my boat is shorn Of all its power.
My neighbor, Johnson, never reads, no
poets does he know; but when he
plants his garden seeds the blamed
things always grow. And he has lusci-
Gus prunes and kraut, and squash and
sparrow grass; and all that | can raise
is govt, which isn't garden sass. This
Johnson's chickens always lay, their
output keeps him strong, while my old
hens eat corn and hay, and give their
lives to song. / know a million use
less facts concerning long dead kings,
and | have read a million tracts dis
cussing hot air things; but these things
do not help, odsfsh, when | am in a
mess, and there are moments when !
wish | knew a whole lot less.
