GERMAN MEDICAL WORLD
NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP

Somewhat of transformation Is
taking place in Germany's medical
world as a result of the limited funds
available for experiments and studies,
according to prominent surgeons and
physicians.
Attention is being turned from labo-
ratory work, which is expensive, to a
closer study of the functioning Of the
human body. The laws of heredity,
psychic reactions and the structure OF
the body are coming to the fore, medi-
cal circles assert, thereby opening
fields of investigation that are as prom
Using as the former studies and require
less material and less expenditure.
In this connection attention is called
to Germany's need for more men in
other walks of life who are sufficiently
interested and wealthy to support sci
ence.
IF one compares our paltry means
with the sums America devotes to sci
entidc work." one writer declares, che
is inclined to lose all hope"
This writer cites the local pride Of
American citizens for their institutions
and the popularity these enjoy as
evinced by donations to their support.
Medical men assert that the crying
need In Germany today is contribu-
lions which viii keep pace, to some ex-
tent at least, with the rate Of exchange.
They say high prices not only prevent
them obtaining necessary apparatus,
but deprive them of foreign technical
literature. Libraries and institutes, as
we'll as individuals, cannot afford a
large selection Of professional books
and periodicals. Gratitude is ex-
pressed that an exchange arrangement
is being effected through which other
lands, including the United States, are
being made available
Leaders in the movement to cope
with prevailing conditions also call
upon members of the profession to
adopt such American customs as popu- |
lar lectures and press articles by sci |
entists. Prof Wilhelm His, one of |
Berlins most prominent surgeons, adj

Big MONEY in HOGS

! We are glad to print the following

Deary He is going to make sue
cess of it, for he is on the right

"Another year has slipped by. We
as farmers find ourselves in practi-
cally the same condition as last year
and the year before. We have fol-
lowed the line of the least resistance
land to grain, obtained a poor yield,
depleted our soil little more and
about made taxes. There are a few
exceptions, however, and they are
men who had the foresight to raise
a few hogs.
do little thinking There is an
enormous amount of potatoes in this
Upper Potlatch country that can
hardly be given away. They are not
of much value raw FOR feed, but
cooked and mixed with grain they are
excellent. OF course, it is a little
trouble to cook feed but are we too
busy in winter to cook feed especially
if we are utilizing product that
otherwise will be wasted? The hog
is the answer.

ing where we must summerfallOW

Agricultural Notes
From the State Agricultural College,
B0zeman

A hedge should precede a shelter
belt. Caragana is one of the best
shrubs for hedge in dry land sections
of Montana.
Poultry experts hold that the north
Montana triangle" is peculiarly
adapted to turkey raising. With fine
range, good feed and natural climatic
conditions, it is believed the "trian-
gle' will become a famous turkey
country.
A trench silo will carry over green
feed for many head of livestock, and
costs only the labor of a mar and
team for a few days.
More than half the chicken flocks
of Montana are infected with avian
tuberculosis. The disease is serious
and dangerous. The veterinary de-
partment of the Montana experiment
station at Bozeman has issued a cir
cular on eradication of avian tuber-
culosis. 1t may be had free of
charge.
Thousands of dollars are lost to
Montana dry farms each spring in
the spring water run-off. Cheaply
constructed dikes or reservoirs
would catch and hold this water OF
the land, insuring good crops.
Corn is increasing in acreage fast
er than any other Montana crop.
With the increase in corn is coming
an increase in hog raising and an
increase in the average number of
livestock per farm.
Records for 40 years in north CEN
trail Montana show that summer fall
low would have returned a more
steady or more certain income, but
that in the bumper" or very good
years spring blowing returns greater
average profits than summer fallow.
Cultivation without blowing, by
the use of the duckfoot type of i'm
plement is being adopted on many
Montana farms where soil blowing is
a problem that follows cultivation of
plowed land.
Copper carbonate dust is the best
treatment for sinking smut of wheat.
Any county agent can explain the use
of the copper carbonate dust.
American foul brood is the worst
disease affecting bees in Montana,
but is not yet a drawback to beekeep-|
ing in this state. The state college
beekeeping department has issued in
structions for the eradication of foul
brood.
The annual north Montana corn
show this year will be held at Chi
nook, according to the present re-
ports. This north Montana corn
show is advertised as the worlds

on the ranch where plenty of room
IS available the rows may be planted
farther apart to allow for cultivation

make a good bed for the city lot. On
a ranch the number may be increased

find a ready sale. The possibilities
of growing them commercially either
1ntensIvely or on a ranch are very at

There is some difference of opin-l
ion as to care during the winter. 1t
is likely that the character of the
winter has much to do with it as the
same treatment does not always give
the same results. The most success
full practice seems to be to allow the
ground to freeze quite solid and then
apply straw, coarse manure, potato
corn stalks, or any similar material.
Straw is easily blown away, is apt to
contain weed seeds and is the least
desirable material for covering.
We cannot all move south but
we can all plant this very desirable
fruit and in that way move part Of
the south here. Plan now to plant a
patch in the spring.
