MONTANA LEADING
in SPRING WHEAT

A comparison made between
Montana spring wheat and spring
wheat raised in other states. made
by the United States department Of
agriculture from reports from mills
and elevators, is encouraging to
Montana farmers. A ranking OF
states according to the quality of
spring wheat grown, published in
a current issue of weather, Crops
and Markets." shows Montana
grown spring wheat heading the
list.
A percentage of IA of the Mon
tana spring wheat graded No. 1.
The state running next was Wyom-
ing with a grade of 59.4 per cent,
and Oregon third with 400 per
cent. OF the remaining nine states
growing spring wheat included in
the list none ranked half as high
as Montana, which means that for
every pound of their spring wheat
graded No. 1 there were more than
two pounds of Montana wheat
given the same classification.

stitutional and invu1nerable to at
tack in court has been attested by
the supreme court of Montana.
A recent decision by the court, In
a friendly test case brought by j. M.
Johnston questioning points of the
new statute which might be attack
ed, ruled that none of the possible
objections raised against it could be
sustained.
Mr.. Johnston brought his suit
against the commissioners of the Val
ley Center Drain District of Big Horn
county. The supreme court, in its
decision, said:
THAT lands may be brought into a
drainage district and subjected to the
imposition of special assessments to
defray the cost of constructing and
maintaining the drainage system up
on the theory that the use to which
the lands are subjected is a public
use, is not open to further discussion
in this state.
'In subjecting privately owned
lands to this public use the state acts
in virtue of its power of eminent do
main. So long as ample provision
is made for notice to every interest

for him to be heard before he may

With big crops in practically all of
the potato sections of the country,
the necessity for grading closely is
paramount this year. Poorly graded
or ungraded lots find few bidders and
usually at losing prices. The old
saying that cit is an ill wind that
blows nobody good" may be applied
to the present situation of our potato
growers in that it should serve to
impress upon them the fact that the
highest class of potatoes closely grad
ed will nearly always find markets
at a profit to the grower, while poor
ly graded or common potatoes are
likely to be marketed at a loss in the
average year. There is no question

cal disadvantage of the state with res
pect to marketing this crop.
United States Potatoes
The preliminary estimated produc-
tion of potatoes for the United States
for 1922 is 433,905, 900 bushels, com
pared with 3~46,823,000 bushels last
year.
The total United States shipment
of potatoes from the late potato
states up to November a was 85,621
cars, compared to 86,844 cars up to
the same date last year. AS the total
carlot movements of potatoes from
all of the late sections last year was
205,629 cars about AZ per cent of
the total movements had taken place

A special potato report issued by

potato stocks of the state and OF the
United States as we'll as the grades,
shows that of Montana's total potato

preliminary estimated production.
Thirty per cent will grade U. S. No.

About 80 per CEN of the entire crop
will be used on the farms for food
and seed, while 10 per cent is useless
for food or seed purposes, and 60 per

A total production for the state
of 6,174,000 bushels is estimated
from an average yield an acre of 126

was lis bushels an acre, and the pro-
duction vas 5.060,0O0 bushels. The
average yield an acre for the entire

yield compares extremely favorably.
Some fields were not harvested this
fall, and a big percentage of u COM

Shipments this year have been

When To Sidestep

Some salesmcn make habit of
yves .yesstng" their prospect. Others
pnttern their sales talk always upon
the theory that efficiency in selling IS
dependent upon ''dominotion' and
"nggressiveness. Both kinds are poor
statesmen, though a salesman Of the lat :

In this. az in nearly everything else,
the middle course Is the best. The truth
is that some prospects are best handled
BY the dominating, driving, aggressive
method, and with others these tactics
are literally the worst you could follow.
You can nearly always recognize the
latter type of prospect quickly enough
after you have made your mistake.
Instantly he becomes resistant or down
right conbative. and YOU cnn take II
for granted right here that you will be
wasting time more than anything else
by fighting with him.
The really important thing Is to size
up your prospect before you make the
break. and 1t is not difficult to do this
even before you have uttered word.

Who Invented Wireless Telegraph!

Sending messages by telegraph and
telephone without wires thousands of
miles over the oceans is a far cry from
sending wireless impulse the length of
a kitchen, table. But before Marconi
did that, others had discovered certain
principles which made 1t possible.
Michael Faraday first discovered
electro magnetic induction between two
entirely separate circuits, and about the
same time Stcinheil. Of Munich, sug-
gested that the metallic portion Of a
grounded electrical circuit might be dis
pensed with and system of wireless
tclegraphy established. The next sug-
gestion came about when Bowman
Lindsay demonstrated to the British
Association a method o,
messages by means q magnetism
through and across water without sub
merged wires. Subsequently James
Clark Maxwell laid down the theory
OF electro magnetism and predicted the
existence OF electric waves in the air,
such as are now used in wireless telc-
grnphy. Dolbenr. of Tufts College,
patented a plan for establishing wire
less communication by means of two
elevated insulated plates, but there is
no evidence that the method proposed
by him effected the transmission Of
Signals between stations separated by
any distance. Not until Hertz dis
covered the progressive propagation OF
electro magnetic action through space
was the period of speculation and ex-
pertinent near its end.
Marconi, then young man just out
Of his teens. read of the experiments
of Hertz and conceived the first ap-
paratus for demonstrating the idea. AT
the end Of several months he had his
idea Of such an apparatus complete and
