BANKING AND FARMING

development the bankers can put
farming on its feet and they are
ready to do everything in reason to
accomplish that end.
Progressive things come about
slowly. Progress amounting almost
to revolution in methods is the
urgent need in marketing farm pro-
ducts. 1t is quite as important as
increasing production per acre and
cutting the cost. Cooperative mar
keting of grain, livestock and wool
is coming about through force of ne
cessity, just as cooperative market
ing of fruit has already done. The
most successful methods cannot be
worked out at the first trial but they
will be found, and the profits of
speculative middlemen will be added
to the producers legitimate earnings.
Bankers are conservative and eau
tious about embracing new things
but cooperative marketing of grain
is in line for their endorsement and
when that comes the battle for fair
prices will be nearly won. The i'm
mense advantage to sheep men of
wool pooling was shown at the recent
meeting and such comment as was
made on grain pooling was favorable.

the farmers.

If you want the latest and best
information on farm conditions and
successful farming methods, attend
convention of the bankers or mer-
chants. The program of the annual
meeting of Group Four, Montana
Bankers Association, held in this city
on June 9Th, demonstrated the truth
Of this statement. The bankers of
the state realize the absolute neces-
sity, for the success of their busi-
ness, of getting the agricultural in
dustries of the state onto a basis
that makes farm prosperity possible
and probable. That is the reason
they call on such authorities on farm
subjects as ]. G. Haney, M. L. Will
son and Matt Staff to fill places on
their Group programs.
This is proof of the dependence
of business on agriculture, a fact
freely admitted by all. And none will
deny that the farmers and stockmen
of a new country are largely de-
pendent upon the bankers and mer-
chants. To do justice to the agri-
cultural resources of this great state
requires harmonious and intelligent
cooperation between both farmers
and business men. At this stage of

9TH INNING RALLY TOO LATE
WILL TRY 1T OVER AGAIN
HERE SUNDAY

1t was our good ball team that
went to Glasgow last Sunday and
they returned with the proverbial
bacon in the form of a bakers dozen
of scores. While the Wolves were
collecting the 13 the Milk River
crowd stacked up 8. 1t was not ex-
actly classy exhibition but it was
our battle after the sixth session.
The gladiators went into that now
historic inning with the count 8 to 3.
The Glasgow athletes for their por-
tion drew the center of a doughnut
but the Pointers had just got the
hang of the ball park and after bat
ting once around and half way on
the second lap, for net gain of 7,
called time on themselves to save
breath enough to finish the game.
The next outbreak was by Glas-
gov, in the ninth. By the time two
were out the bags were all inhabited
by Valley county folks. On the next
play there was a loud noise when
the jumps wobbled and finally called
the third man out at second on
forced play Then it was all over,

sensation of the afternoon was when

MONEY WELL INVESTED

Neut & Kap said to The Herald
man this week: "Our cleanup sale OF
dry goods and shoes, advertised in
The Herald, went fine. We sold just
twice the amount of merchandise we
expected to. Our grocery trade, too,
has been extra good. The money we
invested in advertising this sale was
we'll spent" The boys are right.
Using the right kind of advertising
in the right way is like increasing the
voltage of the current that runs your
business machine-it speeds it up.
The sure way to make slow business
is to turn off the advertising juice.

Citing machinists and car men, the

of the former under the new wages

gram-A Agriculture Holds Largest Share of Attention
Valuable Discussions by Haney, Staff Wilson and
Others-Marketing Methods Grow In Importance
Banquet With Good Eats and Plenty of Fun.

/ An exceedingly valuable program
full attendance and excellent spiri
were the outstanding features of tn,
annual meeting of Group Four O.
the Montana Bankers Association
held here Tuesday. The membership
of Group Four includes the fifty-foul
banks of Phillips, Valley, Roosevelt
Daniels and Sheridan counties.
The business sessions were held II
the Palm room of the Sherman anc
the banquet in the dining room. The
morning session was opened by ar
invocation by Rev. S. McIvor of this
city, and Mayor R. J. Moore in q
brief address welcomed the visitors
to the city. G. G. Lewerenz of Cul-
bertson made a gracious response.
Mr.. Lewerenz, in the absence Of
c. B. Bull of Redstone, president of
the Group, presided at the meetings.
The presidents address had to be
omitted, but president Lewerenz
made few appropriate remarks and
called for the report of the secretary
treasurer, c. E. Hoppin of Glasgow
Mr.. Hoppin's report was routine
covering the minutes of the previous
meeting and the financial statement
of the organization. Reports by
counties were next in order, Daniels
being first on the list, but c. T..
Swenson of Scobey, who was to
make the report, had not yet arrived.
These county reports were surveys
of resources and industrial con}li-
tons and were of much interest, but
of course cannot be reported at
length.
P. K. Everson of Dodson, report
ing for Phillips county, spoke es-
pecially of the progress and success
the farmers of that county had made
in growing corn and potatoes.
H. c. Skarie of Culbertson re-
ported for Roosevelt county and de-
scribed conditions of livestock and
crops. He told of the largely in
creased acreage of corn, of the boys
corn growing contest, and of the i'm
oortance of dairying. He said the

The farmers of the community as
much as $4,000 in one year. The
1921 crop had been generally good,
lie said, and the county had suffered |
ess from pests and storms than some
,ther sections.
S. C. Faaborg, of Medicine Lake,
eporting for Sheridan county, spoke
# the severe hail losses that occur
ed last summer, especially in his
ommunity. He said there would be
slightly increased acreage this year

tions, ETC., an adjournment was mad,
until 200 p. m.
Afternoon Session
! Curtis L. Mosher of the Fedora
Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, whC
was to have spoken on Agriculture
and Livestock, was not present.
L. @. Shelton, state superintendent
of banks, gave an excellent address
that kept within the sphere of bank
ing and dealt with the problems Of
bank supervision that attended pres
ent business conditions. He referred
also to some needed legislation.
Fitting Future Farmers was
the subject discussed by C. E. Pot
ter, state leader boys and girls clubs
an important feature of the exten.
sion work Of the State College. He
quoted statistics to show that con
trary to popular belief it was not
so difficult to keep the boys and girls
on the farm, as to fit them to be eff
cient and successful. He described
the growth of the work and men
toned the fine spirit of cooperation
shown it by bankers and other bust
ness men.
Haney on Diversifying
J. G. Haney, agricultural expert,
for many years employed by the In
ternational Harvester Company in
their development work, and as man
ager of their experimental farms,
talked on diversified farming and he
urged it as the salvation of the North
west. He is thoroughly Informed and
experienced in the subject, and his
leture, illustrated as it was, by nu-
merous charts, was of great interest
to his hearers. Mr.. Haney talks so
rapidly and puts so much into his
lecture, that it is quite impossible to
give even an outline of what he said.
In the beginning, he laid down the
premise that to succeed, the farmers
of the Northwest must grow their
living instead of buying it. Cows,
hogs, chickens and a garden bridge
over the bad years and bring profit
in the good years. The question at
the top of one chart was: Whats
a home Without a Cow" He touch
I'd upon the many benefits from the
cow and related the experience of
he settlers around New Salem, N.
D., who, after reaching condition
# poverty trying to raise grain, are
low prosperous and Independent,
,nly two in the circuit of SO having
my encumbrance on their farms. A
ew of the suggestions of the speaker
we're: improve your dairy business
" better blood; let the hogs work |
or you; hog off some of your al
alta and corn; poultry is profitable;
row your own fruits and vegetables;
livestock on the farm divides the
isk. Each topic was followed up
nth practical, convincing arguments.
Mr.. Haney is the strongest kind
advocate of alfalfa and said he be-
eyed it could be grown wherever
nything else could be grown, or on
ny land that was fit to farm. Sweet
lover, he said, was even better
dapted to semi-arid districts than al

OOC1dI Events
Many events kept the Seniors busy
the last week. Besides those listed
in previous issue were a breakfast
at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Allen
and theatre party given by Mes
DANES Young and Dillard. After
the party a luncheon was served at
the home Of Mrs. Young. Both en-
were thoroughly ap-
oreciated by the Seniors and added
much to graduation week.
The special levy vote carried 70 to
II. The vote was close because many
people were misinformed. The spec
al levy is not accumulative. 1t has
o be voted each year. The special
evy you vote this year can be used
My one year. The fact that you
oted 20 mills last year does not
i've the board the right to add 20
nils this year unless you vote it.
IS you only voted ten mills, we shall
ave ten mills less to run the schools
ne coming year than we had last
ear. This will reduce your school
axes and it also means that the
,hool cannot run on the same basis
5 it did last year. The commercial
apartment has been discontinued
nd other strict economies will have
be observed if we wish to keep

Thursday evening with chairman Frank

Charles S. Bickford of Belfast as secre
tary. 1t is very gratifying to all who
have the interest of the schools at heart
that Supt. Edward E Roderick was re-
elected. This is his 9th consecutive cleo
tun. Mr.. Roderick is perfectly familiar
with all the details of every school in the
district and is giving excellent satisfac-
ton. A member of the Board remarked
that in all these years there has been no
friction or ill feeling. 1t is also pleasant
fact that Mr.. Roderick is considered one
of the best superintendents in the State.
He has frequently been offered more
lucrative positions out of Maine, but the
congenial cooperation of his teachers,
the respect of the pupils and the good
will of the people are taken into con-
sideration and he remains in Belfast, his
home.
