BIG IMPROVEMENT
IN TOMATOES BY
PLANT SELECTION

The steady improvement in quality
of tomatoes by selection is shown in
figures issued recently by the Mon
tana Experiment station at Bozeman
where Prof. F. M. Harrington, horti-
culturist, has added so per cent to
the productiveness of different
strains of tomatoes in three years
of such work. The tomatoes used in
the selection experiments were Bon
ME Best and Earliana strains, two of
the most popular in Montana.
In the first year seed was pur-
chased from 10 outside seed houses.
Upon the station plots this seed pro-
duced 1881 pounds of Bonnie Best
tomatoes per acre the first year.. The
best of this production was selected
for seed and, upon the same plots,
the following year returned 1927
pounds of tomatoes. The gain of
5000 pounds in productiveness was
the result of the first years selection.
Last year, the third year of pro-
duction and the second year of se1ec-
ton, the result was even more mark
ed. The Bonnie Best that had pro-
duced 1927 pounds of tomatoes the
year before now produced 1917
pounds, a larger gain even than in
the first year of selection. This pro-
duction shows a gain of approximate
ly 1000 pounds for two years of sell
ection and a gain of approximately
1000 pounds between the first and
second years of production, a re-
set of figures.
The selection is still going on at
the Montana experiment station at
and Prof. Harrington ex-

NOW is THE TIME TO GO OVER
YOUR POTATOES CAREFULLY

IT FARMERS are looking forward to a potato crop in 1924, now is
the time to get out in the fields and go over the plants, is the advice
- of Prof. F. M. Harrington, head of the horticultural department of
the Montana State college at Bozeman. Whether potatoes are being
raised for commercial purposes or whether for seed, certified or I'M
certified, right now the farmer should get out in the fields and rogue
out all plants that show disease or degeneracy or that are not normal
for the variety.
The thing that the farmer should try for in raising potatoes, he
says, is a maximum production of No. stock at a minimum cost.
plan to take their potato seed for next year and pull and dig out all
plants that show themselves in any way of inferior grade. In this
way a better and more productive strain will be insured for planting
the following year.

same factors are checking the hungry
hoppers in other sections, but crops
and ranges are being seriously injur-
ed by them in spots in various coun-
ties.
Livestock and ranges continue in
good shape.
Farm labor is short in several i'm
portant hay districts, and more acute
shortages are expected when harvest
begins.

poets marked increase in yield again
this year.. All plants at the station
are staked and trained to a single
stem. By this method of handling
the plants Prof. Harrington says they
gain from two to three weeks in time
of maturity. He says that stalking
and training the plants to a single
stem should be practiced wherever
there is a growing season Of 120 days
or less.

FEDERAL AGENTS TAKE
CONTRABAND LIQUORS

AS a climax to a series of raids
conducted in Reno during the past
ten days, liquor valued at approx
mately $4,000 was seized by fed
eral prohibition agents at the resi-
dence of James C. Mckay, Nevada
sportsman, on the South Virginia
road two miles south of Reno.
The seizure, which consisted of
four truck loads of Scotch whisky,
numerous kegs of whiskey, wine and
beer, several gallons of moonshine
and 10 gallons of alcohol, is de-
clared to be the largest in the his
tory Of prohibition in Nevada.

Several secret panels in the house
hid the liquor, according to the
officers.
| Mckay, federal officials say, is an
officer of the Reno Social Club, and
is known as a member of the "Big
-Four" of the bootleggers.
The raid is a direct result of
complaints by prominent Reno citi-
zens to Prohibition Commissioner
Haynes at Washington, asking that
special efforts be made to secure
evidence against certain places in
Reno where local officers had been
unsuccessful, the federal man an
nounced.
Orders from Washington were
sent to ALI Oftendahl, chief of the
Pacific coast division of the internal
revenue secret service in San Fran
cisco, it is said. Oftendahl, accom-
panied by George v. Parker, said to
be one Of the most trusted men in
the service. and five other men
participated in the catch.
Following the raid, the liddor was
placed in custody of Louis A. Spell
ler, collector of internal revenue
for the district of Nevada.
1t was announced that Spellier is
expected to levy heavy penalties for
failure to report the liquor. While
United States Attorney George
Springmeyer will file an Informal
ton against Mckay in the federal
court in Carson City, charging him
with conducting a nuisance and with
unlawful possession of liquor.
The raid was made on a search
warrant based on an affidavit of
sale to a woman said to be a Mrs.
Marshall. 1t was admitted, how
ever, that this is not her real name.

During the raid J. E. Brown,

for drugs, but a protest was made
by Mrs. Mckay, who was said to be
in charge of the premises. Not
having warrant, calling for search
for drugs, Brown desisted.
Spellier knew nothing Of the op-
erations of the revenue men until
after the raids had taken place. His
only connection is said to be as
custodian.
