In the Roman valley, Montana,
there was, seven years ago, eighty
acres of untitled soil. The land was
twelve miles from the nearest town,
and it was bounded on the west by
desolate hills where coyotes began
to bark when night fell. Came Lars
Beck, alone and with all his earthly
possessions on his back. He staked
off the eighty-acre tract and set out
to break the soil and make it ready
for planting.
He married, sowed two acres OF all
falfa and began grading two scrub
heifers up to the point where they
would become Holsteins. How he
Jared from then until the present is
told by the Rev. Ralph Carleton of
Roman in an article written for the
Reclamation Record:
each succeeding year he enlarged
his alfalfa crop. Last year his eight
Holstein cows brought him in round
numbers $1,000 worth of dairy prod
ucts, and he had the by-products in
the shape of humus which went back
to the land and the milk which went
into the production of calves and
pork. His hogs, which had cost him
nothing that he had not
raised upon the farm, brought him
another thousand dollars. Then, be-
sides the hay consumed on the farm,

WOULD COMPLETE
GREENFIELD UNIT

Progress toward obtaining funds
for the completion of the Greenfields
division of the Sun River irrigation
project took step forward in reso-
lutions passed at meeting of water
users of the district, according to
Miles Cannon of Washington, d. c.,
field reclamation commissioner, who
represented the department.
Would Cost Millions
The resolutions, signed by virtual
ly all of the land owners on the divi-
sion, outlined work which the water
users desire done and the aid they
would give in bringing this about.
The plans include adding 10000
acres and formation of an irrigation
district to guarantee payment. Full
fillment of the plans of the resolu-
lions would mean expenditure of be-
tween 100000 and s4,000,000.
This action of the landowners was
essential to obtain proper appropri-
ations for the project, Mr.. Cannon
said. Following heavy rains shortly
after the project was begun several
years ago, the landowners lost inter
est in obtaining water. Mr.. Cannon
pointed out. They did not purchase
water and the department had lost
interest in furthering the project.
Passage of the resolutions does not
assure the needed funds, but money
would not be appropriated were not
this assurance of interest of the land
owners given the government, Mr..
Cannon said.
Present Conditions Poor
The present condition of the di-
vision is most unsatisfactory to the
government, Mr.. Cannon said. He
spoke of it as 'more than 100000
and 100000 acres neither
under irrigation nor dry land The
$4,000 acres now within the project
mas not adequate assurance of water,
he supply running out soon after the
middle of July in normal years. Fol-
owing the program of the resolutions
would mean some three years of ac-
i've construction work.

RECORD OUTPUT
OF SUGAR BETS

Production increase of the Great
Western company's sugar plant at
Billings will mean that 1000 sacks
of sugar will be manufactured this
year with the 1928 payroll amount
ing to 100000. 1t is expected that
the output of the plant will be the
largest of any in recent years.
There are $4,000 acres of beets
planted this year as against the total
acreage of 1900 acres in 1922. This
is accounted for by the fact that
farmers are returning to the sugar
beet industry following the war peri
cd when the principal crop raised was
wheat.
The increased production of the
sugar beets practically means that the
Great Western company will pay out
in actual cash to producers and labor
100000 more than last year 1t is
estimated that the 1923 initial pay
ments will amount to $1,380,000.
Whatever bonus may be paid on the
sugar content will be in addition to
that.
The factory payroll for 1923 will
be 100000. Last year it was
9oOO,VVV. Ing ldCtOIy pIdHL anu Ol-
flee will employ 500 persons, instead
of 460 as last year. The beet field
hands this year number 5000 as
against $500 for 1922. The sugar
factory last year used 10000 tons of
coal. This year it will use $4,000
tons. 1t will need 5000 tons of
lime rock as against 10000 used last
year. 1t will use 500 tons more coke
than last year.
In 1923 the sugar factory paid for
coal, lime and coke, $4,000. This
year it will pay for those things $751;
900. The freight paid to the rail-

NOW EVERYONE is FISHING

"Strange things are done meath
midday sum-" according to George
Benoilken, rancher of the Trail creek
district near Livingston.
Recently George, an enthusiastic
angler, was "doing his stuff in ap-
proved Isaak Walton style when he
hooked something that seemed too
sluggish for a trout. Pulling in his
line, he discovered a sack and in it
a bottle of cool, sparkling moonshine.
Grasping his prize firmly by the
neck, George gave devout thanks to
the late lamented John Barleycorn
and proceeded homeward. Soon
thereafter a horde of anglers, armed
with seines, dragnets, graphing hooks
and all varieties of tackle, could be
seen hiking in the direction of Trail
creek.
However, if any good catches were
made, they have not been reported.
In the meantime George is being be-
sieged by fishermen anxious to OBJ
tain supply of bait.

THE STORY OF LARS BECK
WHO WON OUT ON "a FARM

he sold 5000 worth of beef cattle to
the local butcher and 5000 worth OF
alfalfa.
He kept eighty chickens which
gave him an income of $500 year,
and sold in the local market $500
worth of fruit and garden truck.
All of this added up amounts to the
very neat income of $4,000 a year,
besides the food raised upon the farm
and consumed by the family. At a
conservative estimate this amounts
to 5000 more"
Then Mr. Carleton tells how Lars
bought Ford car, paying $500 in
cash, how he paid 5000 more for
a manure spreader, $50 for the lat
est model washing machine and $50
for a gasoline engine and roller
mill
ga store BILL" wrote Mr.. Carleton,
''is an unknown quantity in his
home. His house and barn and out
buildings are not large, but they are
comfortable and convenient, and
there are no mortgages hanging over
them.
''This progressive farmer tells me
that WIFI MS 0F6T-luCI6dSlhS blCdSS
of alfalfa, in few years he will have
twenty-five dairy cows, better graded
than they are now, which at present
prices will bring in $4,000 year.
He expects to multiply his flock of
chickens by two and a half and to
expand in other ways"
Mr.. Carleton says that while there
is no ''fear" that Lars will die a
millionaire, he is extracting a very
comfortable living for himself and
his very fine family and that Lars
wastes no time "cussing the million
aires and hurting sulphuric brim-
stones at the government" adding:
81 honestly think that people of this
type are extracting more of the right
wealth than any man who ever dealt
in the 'frenzied finance of Wall ST."

HELPFUL ORGANIZATIONS
UP IN ROOSEVELT COUNTY

The organized communities OF
Roosevelt county are developing a
reputation and name for the good
services they have rendered to their
members who have been struck by
extremely hard circumstances.
During the early part of July, John
Waro, a member of the "Be Square
Community" was taken seriously i'll
and it was found necessary to take
him to the hospital Immediately for
an operation. During his absence,
members of the community at one
of their meetings discussed Mr..
Waro's unfortunate circumstances
and practically every farmer in the
community volunteered to assist in
putting up a 25-acre field of alfalfa
hay of Mr.. Waro's, which was then
about over-ripe This will give him
enough hay to tide him over the win
ter, which he would not have had
otherwise
Another example of this type of
comradeship which is developing
among such organizations was dis
played by the Divide community
members last spring. Mr.. Kitchener,
a farmer who had just moved out to
make his home in that community
was taken ill at the time spring work
was being done. Members of the
Divide community knew that Mr..
Kitchener would not be able to get
a crop in in time to do any good if
he waited until he was well, so at
one of their meetings they volun-
teered to bring plows, teams and
drills. They all got together one day
and put in As acres of wheat.

TO STANDARDIZE
GRADING OF HAY

Organization of forces for the
Standardization of alfalfa hay grdes
will be recognized in II terminals,
will begin almost Immediately, &C
cording to E. c. Parker of Billings,
who leaves for Washington, d. c.,
this week for a conference with fed
eral officials and the making of
plans for the organization of which
he will have charge. Mr.. Parker
has ben resident of Montana for II
years and was the manager of the
Montana Ranches corporation with
headquarters here for eight years.
Initial Effort
This is the first time that efforts
ever have been made to standardize
hay grades, according to Mr.. Parker,
and the effort is the result of the con-
fusion existing each fall in various
terminal markets when the hay is not
given a recognized grading. That this
Standardization will be of great bene-
fit to the shipper cannot be doubted
since it will make alfalfa hay of one
grade recognized at that grade in ny
terminal market
The hay will be graded much in
the same way as wheat is graded at
this time and the farmers of Yellow
stone county, which is one of the
great hay producing counties of the
state, will reap untold benefits
from the methods which will make
sure the receipt of fair treatment in
the terminal.
Terminal Inspection
Another problem which will be
eventually worked out by the de-
partment of agriculture, thinks Mr.
Parker, will be track inspection
service by disinterested third party
in the terminal market. Through
this inspection by third party
rather than by the buyer, the diff
culties of marketing will be material
ly reduced. Mr.. Parker will hold
conference in Washington for sever
al weeks with department heads, and
will then have charge of the work of
organizing a sufficient force of in
spectors and deputies to carry on the
work of Standardization as soon as
possible.

roads in 1922 amounted to $448,-
900. This years freight bills will
amount to 1851, 900 and the bags of
sugar produced will number $1,000
as against 100000 last year.
In 1922 there were $4,000 tons of
pulp available for feeding livestock.
This year there will be $500 tons
of pulp.

Lower prizes for admission to the
fifth annual Bozeman Roundup, Aug.
2. 8 and 4, and free fireworks every
night of the big show, are the out
standing features this year, accord
ing to Harry Healy, who further de-
clares that the entertainment this
year will be better and more inter
esting than ever.
Noted Riders Coming
The Cheyenne Frontier Days" will
be held this week, and already many
of the stars of that meet together
with some of the best horses and
steers will be called upon to make
the Bozeman Roundup a success.
Among the riders are Lorraine
Trickey, Ruth Roach, Bonnie Gray
and Mabel Strickland. who have been
seen here before who have always
furnished good sport. They have
asked to be signed for this fifth an
nual event, knowing they have many
friends here and also that their rep
utations as performers are sustained
when they can please Bozeman.
Johnny Mullins, manager OF the
sports, declares the horses and wild
steers are the best ever brought out
in any wild west show. Among the
bad bucking horses will be Miss Deer
Lodge, Moonshine, Absarokee Gray,
Lightning, Black Jim, and Prison
Bar.
To Resurrect Gregory
An effort will be made to get Guy
Gregory, a trusty of the prison at
Deer Lodge, and a rider of excep-
tional skill, to compete in the buck
ing events. Before Gregory was sent
up from Malta, he was the acknowl-
edged king of the bronx busters
among the cowboys of not only the
state, but other states. Influence
will be brought to bear upon Warden
Potter to allow his trusty to come
over.
Another of the interesting features
will be the trying out of new buck
ing bronks. Anyone having a bad
horse will be eligible to enter this
contest and prizes of $40 and $50
will be awarded. The management
also will be in the market to pur-
chase the best one shown.

FIND 1900 WEEv|LS
ON 15-ACRE PATCH
Startling Condition Discovered on
Raines and Hollingsworth
Farm

he Dawson (Ga.) News, May IS.
The boil weevil is already stirring in
Terrell county, in fact the greatest
enemy of the Georgia farmer is dis
playing an activity that is dangerous
to the planters as it is disquieting.
On the farm of Messrs. Raines and
Hol!rngsworth, about four miles be
You'd Chickasawhatchee, the cotton
acreage was heavily infested with the
pests. The owners were unable to
cope with the weevils by having the
negroes on the farm pick them and
the situation was indeed grave. AT
the last time picking was attempted
upwards of twelve hundred of the cot
ton pests were found and there SEEM
ed to be no indication of the prolific,
destructive weevils diminishing
Messrs. Raines and Hollingswortt
decided that determined effort must
be made at once to completely Grad
icate the cotton destroyers. AT the
suggestion of Lowrey and Davidson
who are local agents for Hills Mix
ture, well-known boil weevil ex-
terminator, about five gallons of the
poison were taken out to the farm to
experiment on the worst infested
acres. Last Thursday the Hills Mix
ture was thoroughly applied to fifteen
acres of the most densely populated
with the insects. Tuesday morning
the same acres were inspected by a
large number of prominent Terrell
and Dougherty county planters who
are in the same fix regarding the boil
weevil as Messrs. Raines and Hol-
llngsWorth. The negroes again went
over the fields in question and found
only five live weevils, while numbers
OF dead ones were scattered all over
the plants and down on the ground
between the rows.
Then live weevi1 was taken and
placed on a plant which had been
l0o2ped with Hills Mixture on last
Thurs day. The weevi1 gnawed OF
chewed at the leaf for little while
and then fell off the plant dead
Messrs. Raines and Hollingswo-t h
were delighted with the results, and
rnainder of the plantation.
Besides the Terrell county planters
who witnessed the sight there were
Messrs. Theo Irwin and Charles
Burke of Americas, I. Q. Thomas

Charles Mallory of Albany, and Ju.
liam Barrett Of Augusta, Mr.. Barrett
represented the Hills Mixture Com.
pany of Augusta, while the rest Of

men in their respective towns.

GAME OF ely TENNIS"
NOW PROVES POPULAR

ATLANTA, Ga, May 31-Here is
a brand new game. It's called "fly

official fly swatters in the city and
state health departments. The game
has been officially endorsed by ali
organizations here which are conduct
ing the fly campaign.
Youngsters are taking a great hand
in 'swatting the fly. One Atlanta
woman held party for boys and
gave a prize to the youngster who
killed the most flies; and ice cream to
all who participated in the game.
The incident suggested the game O.
lily tennis, which may be played
by two or more persons each equipp-
ed with a swatter. The fly should be
led into the room and released, with
the players standing around the room.
1t Is best to have light in the center
OF the room; to keep the victim away
from the windows.
When the fly says where we live.
humans die" the rule demands that
one OF the players give a mighty swat.
II he survives, the other one swats.
and so on back and forth across the
room until the fly is exterminated.
The game may be played for an indef-
mite length of time until all flies are
exterminated.
lie refreshments may be served
without endangering the lives of the
players.
