The value of the home garden on the
farm is being realized more each year
IN Montana. During recent years Of
low yield in crop production many re-
ports have come to Montana State
college, where values from the home
garden exceeded values Of all other
crops grown on fifty or more acres Of
land. Scores Of farmers recently have
reported to county agents In Montana
that their home gardens have been the
one thing that has made the farming
adventure possible In recent bad years.
Not few farmers say that the home
garden is the most valuable institution
on the Montana farm.
The horticultural department of the
State college has made many inquiries
concerning causes Of failure with the
home garden, outside of causes due to
insufficient moisture.
Some Of these causes Of failure
have been: ~ Poor plans or planting
SO that there is no economy in labor !;
(2) poor seed; (3) poor preparation Of
soil; (4) lack Of cultivation; 10y poor
planting; (6) attempt to grow for the
market without an understanding Of

continue for at least six months to

it is not safe to cut bids on the as

Wages In many lines have been

employers feel that they must come

Rumors that contractors in gem
eral are exhibiting a tendency to
bid lower on all kinds of construc-
tion work than they were willing
to do few months ago, raise the
question of whether or not the
present outlook justifies lower
prices for construction work. The
answer, according to the Associated
General Contractors Of America
based on an analysis of present
prices, wages, freight rates. freight
service and probable developments
of these factors in construction
costs. is that 1t is a bad time to
bid low.
The general level of prices has
been going up for the past several
months. All authorities agree that
the business depression has reached
the bottom and we are on tho up
grade. There is practically no ex-
ception to the rule that prices gen.
orally increase somewhat during
The Washington herald., 1922-06-11

sive reduction In their charges. Re-
ductions in freight rates offer mo
Justification for bidding low ON con-
struction projects.
1t Is perhaps quite as important
that contractor should get his
materials when he wants them as
that he should get them at the
right price. At present stocks Of
most things are large and produce
tion. capacity is not being used to
the full. These conditions are IA
yorable, but how long they will
stay So Is problematical. Demand is
increasing. II the coal strike con-
tinues all summer many industries
will not be able to produce up to
their normal capacity or perhaps
even at their present rates. II
seems probable that contracts can
be taken with any assurance of
prompt deliveries Of large quantl-
ties of material several months
from now.
II business improves, as is hoped,
there Is going to be car shortage
before the summer Is over. The
railroads are under-equipped both
in cars and locomotives for hand
ling the normal business of the
country. Even IL their equipment
were all in good condition a car
shortage would be the hardly avoid
able accompaniment of the next
period OF even ordinary prosperity
But II is not all in good condition.
There are nearly 100000 more cars
unit for service than there ought
to be under normal conditions OF
maintenance. II conditions were
such that a car shortage existed OF
precisely this amount. 100000 cars
1t would be very serious short
age. Low prices for construction
work are not justified II they are
based upon, the assumption that
freight cars will always be avail
able when they are wanted.
Anyone contemplating making a
low bid on construction work
should not do 1t on the assumption
that materials are going to be
cheaper. that wages will be lower
that freight rates will be reduced
that deliveries will be prompt, that
freight service will be adequate and
that all things will be harmonious
for not one of these assumptions is
likely to be true.-From the Ma
