MANY VETERANS
CHOOSE FARMING
ONE-FOURTH OF DISABLED SOL
DIERS IN TRAINING IN MON
TANA STUDY AGRICULTURE
G. Il. Busha, Sub-District Manager of
Bureau, Explains that This Tend
ency is Due to Many Service Men
Coming from Rural Districts.

Approximately one-fourth of all
disabled ex-service men who have
accepted vocational training in Mon
tana have gone into some phase OF
agricultural work, according to G. It.
Busha, sub-district manager of the
United States veterans bureau in
this state. This strong preference
for agriculture is attributed to the
fact that a large proportion of our
soldiers in the late war came from
the rural districts. Naturally, if the
injuries they sustained in military
service were not too serious, their
thoughts turned to farming upon the
award of vocational training.
The record shows that nearly 800
Montana veterans have received or
are now receiving instruction in
scientific agriculture under the juris-
diction of the veterans bureau,
studying up-to-date methods which
should enable them to become sue
cessful farmers. The actual number
at this time is 210. The instruction
of the men is practical as well, for
their training in most instances is
about equally divided between
schooling at the State college, Boze-
man, and supervised farming on
their own land.
With are exceptions, the bureau
insists, Busha states, that the men
possess their own farms, upon the
theory that the only successful farm
er is the farm owner. If they have
no land at the time they enter train
ing they are required to secure suit
able acreage for the particular kind
of agriculture they intend to follow.
The bureau assists them in doing
this.
Farm activities represented in the
mems studies include stock raising,
dairying, poultry raising, bee culture,
horticulture and general farming. A
number of veterans are taking full
college course at Bozeman with the
view of becoming county agents or
agricultural teachers. Many ex-ser-
vice men have already been rehabili-
tated in agriculture, it is stated, and
are now firmly established upon their
land with every prospect of contin-
ued success.

HOW TO PREVENT
SPUDS' DRY ROT
f. NJ. HARRINGTON GIVES VALU.
ABLE ADVICE FOR POTATO
GROWERS
How to Grade United States No. 4
Potato is Explained; Kind of Crop
to Avoid Loss; Keeping Product
Up to 100 Per Cent is Advised.

Last winter complaints were re-
ceived from many farmers who had
trouble with potatoes spelling of dry
rot in storage, says F. M. Harrington,
horticulturist of the Montana Exten-
sion Service.
Dry rot is caused by two things:
poor storage conditions and careless
ness in handling the potatoes. Pota-
toes should be stored in a place where
the temperature is under 40 degrees.
as dry rot develops best at a temper
azure of from 40 to AZ degrees.
Thus, farmers will find it to their
advantage to Gull over their potatoes
before storing, eliminating all those
cut, bruised, burned or otherwise in
ferior. This will not only make the
potatoes more marketable, and at a
better price, but will eliminate the
possibilities of disease.
The U. S. No. 1 grade potato is
listed by the U. S. department of ag-
riculture as follows:
"U. S. No. / shall consist of pota-
toes of similar varietal characteris-
tics which are not badly misshapen,
which are free from freezing injury
and soft rot, and from damage caused
by dirt or other foreign matter, sun
burn, second growth, growth cracks,
hollow heart, cuts, scab, blight, dry
rot, diseases insects or mechanical or
other means.
"The diameter of potatoes of round
varieties shall not be less than 1 7-8
inches, and of potatoes of long va
rieties 1 ga inches.
Sin order to allow for variations
incident to proper grading and hand
ling, not more than five per cent, by
weight, of any lot may be below the
prescribed size, and, in addition, not
more than six per cent, by weight,
may be below the remaining require
ments of this grade, but not to ex-
coed one-third of this six per cent
tolerance shall be allowed for pota-
toes affected by soft rot"
In grading second growth are gem
all eliminated except where
the two tubers are of commercial
size and then there should be few of
them. Potatoes with growth cracks
should be eliminated unless the
are shallow enough not to in
terfere with peeling. Clean, smooth
cuts are all right if they do not
change the shape of the potato;
rough cuts are always considered de-
fects; where second growth has been
broken off is a rough cut.
Bruised potatoes are generally eli
minated if the bruise detracts from
appearance or is large enough to
make an appreciate waste. Sun
burned and wet or soft decayed pota-
toes are always eliminated, wet decay
particularly as evidence of it cuts
Down the grade and price of potatoes.
Evidence of two per cent wet decay
will throw a shipment Of potatoes
out of grade.
While six per cent of all defects
ire permissible, farmers should not
to live right up to the limit but
have their stock ready for
shipments as near 100 per cent per-
.ect as possible. The sacks should be
uniform size and type for conven-
ence in handling and for appearance.
Julls should not be shipped at all but
Kept at home for use as stock feed or
or household purposes.

Flush your kidneys by drinking a

thority. who tells us that too much
rich food forms acids which almost
paralyze the kidneys in their efforts
to expel it from the blood. They be-
come sluggish and weaken; then YOU
may suffer with a dull misery in the
kidney region, sharp pains in the
back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is. coat

nave rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy. full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated.
oblising you to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids: help cleanse the kidneys
and flush off the body's urinous
waste, get four ounces Of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy here. Take a
tablespoonful in glass Of water be-
fore breakfast for few days, and
your kidneys may then act fine. This

OF grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia. and has been used for
years to help flush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in the system so they no

BELFAST
Ice Conditions More Hopeless
On Penobscot Bay. Cutter
Makes Slow Progress
BY Albert T. Reid

Ice conditions in the western
Penobscot bay appear more hopeless
than ever Wednesday morning and
the Ossipee making an attempt to
cut a channel into Searsport, is bare
ly able to move ahead. This channel,
which was opened for some time. was
recently closed by anchor ice which
packed in and piled up. making it
worse than ever after it froZe, So
that Searsport and Belfast are closed
up tight, the latter having had no
outlet for many weeks. The few days
of thaw last week did not have much
impression on the II and 20-inch ice
not aided in weakening 1t.
The four-master Maurice w. Thur
low. which went ashore at Saturday
Cove last week, and which was
quickly fioated without much dam
age. was unable to continue to Sears
port and has gone to Rocklard 70
wait until a channel is open.
1t has been confidently hoped that
the ice would be out by the first Of
April but all hopes for this are aban-
doned now Unless drastic measures
are used it will be the middle Of the
month before the bay is free. While
there is some open water off Temple
Heights and below. the remainder Of
the bay from Belfast to Castine is
one white. unbroken field.
Watched from the shore for two
hours or more it cannot be seen that
the ice cutter makes the least head
way. She is mile below Turtle
He ID, on the west side of Islesboro.
