GIRLS CONGRESS
BENEFITS 5000
THROUGH SOME 500 DELEGATES,
DISCUSSIONS WILL BE TRANS
MITTED TO REST OF STATE.
Dean Una b. Herrick Was Given a
Great Ovation at Close of Program;
Women from Other States Attend
TO Study of Conference Idea.

Tired but still enthusiastic, the
more than 200 high school girls of
Montana who attended the ninth TN
nual Girls Vocational congress at the
State college in Bozeman have re-
turned home after attending a meet
ing that set a new record in America.
With the open purpose of present
ing to high school girls of Montana
the opportunities open to them in
various vocations of today, the con-
ference drew attention from all parts
of the country, women coming from
other states to study the conference
plan of Montana. 1t was said in the
conference that the discussions will
be transmitted through the confer
ence delegates to more than 5000
young women over the state, since
each delegate is required to make a
full report to her home town.
The final meetings brought a fine
tribute to Dean Una B. Herrick of
Montana State college, the woman
who started the conference nine years
ago and built it from an attendance
of 81 to an attendance of nearly 800.
Dean Herrick was given a great ova-
tion at the closing of the program.
Girls heard discussions upon agricul-
ture, Y. w. C. A. work, home econ
omics, clothing design, extension
work and social service.

Bozeman.- 1--WE are not out to

but we certainly are out to break
records of service rendered." says M.
J.. Abbey of the State college, director
of the annual Boys Vocational confer

that a great good is coming from
these conferences and it is our plan to
continue this service to the young
of Montana on the broadcast pos

riculture in the county, according
to County Agent Stebbins. Forty
farmers in the county last year
raised and sold $4,000 of alfalfa
seed. Then carloads of hogs have
been shipped from the county this
year. Valley county is able to util-
lie it's exceptionally large corn crop
because there are $4,000 sheep in
the county, and sheepmen see the
wisdom of fattening their lambs
at home instead of shipping them
east for that purpose. Turkey
raising and dairying is increasing
gradually.
If it were not for the sturdy, in
dustrious farmers in northern Mon
tana who are satisfied to stay on
their land and anxious to adapt
themselves to the diversified pro-
gram that is necessary, the county
agents would not have been able
to accomplish all that they have.
1t has been a happy combination
and it is not over-optimistic to state
that that section of the state will
be "back on its feet" much sooner
than many have dared to hope"

NORTHERN COUNTY AGENTS

Phillips county was one of the
first counties to go in for corn. In
1922, better than $4,000 acres
were raised. This year the acre
age was between $4,000 and 49,
900. County Agent Lantz has been
able to avoid the catastrophe of
over-production of this new crop

ty agents have Carried on" in nor
thern Montana, not once losing
faith in the possibilities of agri-
culture there, and working virtu-
ally night and day with their farm
Ier constituents to help them evolve
a type of farming that will be Sue
cessful and permanent.
The second annual Northern
Montana Corn Show held recently
at Chinook, was an event that en-
phasized in relative terms the pro-
gress that has been made. It
proved that hundreds of farmers
already are well along the road to
permanent prosperity that divers
ification is the vehicle which is car
rying them to that goal, and that
the agricultural extension service
of this state is the dynamic force
which keeps that vehicle going.
While corn culture followed by
corn shows, has been the spectacu-
lar element which has brought at
tention to the broadening of the
diversified base on northern Mon
tana farms, by no means has it
been the sole or even major project
conducted by the county agents.
They have made just as worthy
progress in other lines.
Pure Seed Development.
For instance, in Roosevelt coun-
ty, County Agent Noble in coop
Grafton with many farmers has put
over a pure seed project which
started in 1920 and which already
has increased the average yield per
acre and the grades of Canadian
Marquis wheat and Victory oats,
rs per cent. 1t is confidently ex-
pected that this yield will have
been increased to so per cent. by
another year. Another project in
Roosevelt county is hog raising.
Last year only five carloads of hogs
were shipped to market from that
county. This year there will be
almost 40. Silos are being built
and sheep and dairy stock are be-
added to hundreds of farms.

Grafton between the farmers of his
county and the sheepmen and cat
tlemen of that county and its neigh
born Blaine, whereby spring lambs
and other stock have been fattened
in corn fields, farmers being paid
for one-half the increase in weight.
In other instances, the corn was
bought outright for $40 to $12 an
acre.
Hog Industry Growing.
In Phillips county lives ]. N.
Mangis who won sweepstakes on
corn at the Chinook show. He is
typical of many farmers in that
section of the state. For several
years he has been developing and
improving his corn until he now
has a Northern Dent that outyields
almost any other variety. Pure
seed potatoes and pure alfalfa seed
are other projects that are being
developed by County Agent Lantz
and his progressive farmers. Phil
lips county also is well established
in the hog industry, there being
4,5O0 brood sows on the farms of
the county this year.
When one thinks of Blaine coun-
ty, he thinks Of hogs. Perhaps no
county in the state has more pure
bred swine than this. Boys and
girls, with the aid of a progressive
banker, F. M. Burks, and County
Agent Gustafson, are responsible
for this achievement, for it was
through the success of the Young
people that their parents were won
to the idea. Sentiment favoring
dairying is crystalizing. Turkey
raising is already established and
there will be three carloads of
dressed birds shipped from Chi
nook this fall.
Sugar beets and potatoes have
proven successful, and more car
loads of the latter will be shipped
Blaine county this year than
ever in its history. In both Phil
lips and Blaine counties next wear.
systems of dry land irrigation are
to be worked out. Alfalfa to fur
nish a protein feed for stock and
10 balance corn feed is the objective
that the county agents and the
farmers r working toward.
Wheat in Sheridan County.
Wheat still predominates in
county. More than 1OO.-
700 acres were sowed with this
,rop in 1923 and because of the
'ust, the yield was cut to 10 to Isl
bushels an acre. But corn has
made an impression, more than IT,
700 acres being planted to that
:rop during the last season. DARYL
ng already is established in several
communities and hog raising is
a substantial foothold. Ac-
:ording to, County Agent Ostby
i've carloads of dressed turkeys
viii be shipped from the county
his fall.

Former Supt. Davidson Compares
Conditions Here With Those
in Pittsburgh.

The District of Columbia handles Its
school problem like a village, COM
pared to Pittsburgh. Pa. according to
DR.. William Mehard Davidson. former
superintendent of schools of the Dis
trict, and who for the past ten years
has held a similar position in the
Smoky city.
DR.. Davidson was one Of number
of delegates representing educational
institutions who called on President
Coolidge yesterday.
He said no difficulty is met in Pitts
burgh to obtain sufficient money to
operate the schools properly and to
furnish adequate buildings.
"a seat for every child" Is the
motto of Pittsburgh, he said. To give
a comparative idea of conditions in
that city and in the District of Co
lumbia, DR.. Davidson said. there is
an annual appropriation of 10000
900 for new school buildings besides
an equal sum for operation of the
system. 1t was only limited this year
that probably $10.000.000 would not
be sufficient to maintain the seat for
every child program, when the coun-
Gil Immediately appropriated S3,000,-

had made the trip to Washington and
intrusted himself to the Veterans
Bureau. The latter organization was
anxious to do the right thing by this
veteran, but it took time. In the
meantime, this veteran. with his
mother and wife, were stranded In
strange city without friend or
penny to buy food.
After making appeals to several
organizations which had no funds
available for emergency use. he tried
the Veterans. who supplied his need
and thus tided him over until the
Veterans Bureau could. after some
time, get his claim adjusted.
A second case of similar circum-
stances also happened recently, only
this time it was veteran with tuber.
culosis, and a wife in Washington anc
without funds or friends. His needs
were also supplied.
These are only two of hundreds OF
such cases that have to be handled
in this city and 1t is for this work
and for the purpose of keeping some
poor fellows from becoming desper-
ate and committing suicide, that the
