it may not pass through the winter

public auction the yearly lease to
highest bidder, who was allowed to
collect daily toll, which was used for
repairs each year, but several years
ago the State agreed to appropriate a
small sum for yearly repairs with the
understanding no more tolls would

been free to the public.

the plants that show evidence of good
quality and mark them some way.
Many stocks show high percent
age of disease this year, says Mr..
Harrington. These should not be
used for seed and the farmer will be
we'll repaid by getting new stock al
together. In this regard, it is not
advisable to buy seed from the open
market. The Extension Service rec
ommends buying certified seed, and
thereby guaranteeing good quality
potato.
Farmers should look to their seed
stock even before they do their COM
mercial stock. There are many in
stances to be cited where farmers
have selected their seed from the bin,
using Gull potatoes not marketable
or inconvenient for home consump-
ton.
This is a poor way of selecting
seed. Diseases are apt to be trans
mitted in this way, from cut, bruised
or otherwise injured potatoes. Ex-
periments have proven, also, that dis
eased seed visibly cuts down the size
of the tubers, this being most notice
able in leaf roll. A disease of this
sort is not to be found in potatoes
selected from the bin, therefore MAX
ing it more imperative that growers
select their seed in the field and in
sure a good potato crop next season.

fore and should be supported. The
farmers offerings are made to the
same people but by a more direct
route. There is no side-stepping the
fact that the best system will event
ually prevail, and with reference to
the marketing of wheat, the pooling
of immense quantities by the farmers
will give them power in the mar
kets of the world which prior to this
time has been vested in other people
not entitled to receive the profits
accruing from farming operations.
Farmer Cannot Make Price
Most of us have the privilege of
selling what belongs to us at a price
that is satisfactory but in the case
of the farmer he must sell at a price
made as a rule by someone not dir
ectly interested in farming and in
which he has no voice.
The success of this venture lies in
the complete education of the bust
ness man and his customers to the
point where their business interests
will best be served.
Proper recognition should always
be given to the functioning of any

general and no man or set of men,
corporations or otherwise, should en-
ploy retaliatory measures to defeat a
plan which is for the best interest
of all concerned.
For the present do not hesitate
to recommend that the farmers be
asked to affiliate with The Montana
Wheat Growers and thus avail HIM
self of the greatest opportunity he
has ever had to join an effective or
ganization for his future welfare.

cows FRESHENED ON FALL
MAKE MONEY FOR DAgR Y IMAM

These figures show that the cows
that freshened in the fall produced
SAT pounds more milk and 80 pounds
more butterfat than those that fresh
ened in the spring. Figuring butter
fat at 40 cents per pound this would
make difference of $3.50 per COW
in favor of fall freshening.
Besides getting an increase in pro-
duction there are other advantages
to having the COWS calve in the fall
or early winter. The price of butter
fat is usually much higher in winter
and then the farmer, as rule, has
more time to devote to the care and
management of his animals. Calves
raised in the fall or early winter gem
orally do better than those dropped
in the spring and when grass comes
in the spring they may be turned out
on pasture to rustic for themselves.
Whether the advantages of winter
dairying will offset those of summer
dairying is a question each dairyman
must decide for himself. Owing to
the great seasonal difference in the
production of butter in Montana,
however, winter dairying as a rule
is more profitable to the man who
is prepared to take care of his ami
mails at this time of the year.
More fall and winter dairying
would also tend to stabilize the mar
kets. In winter some of our cream
cries hardly have sufficient volume
to operate their plants and often are
unable to supply their regular GUS
toners with butter, whereas in sum-
mer their plants are crowded and
they have difficulty in finding ready
sale for their product without ship
ping to the large markets. Unless
The creameries have large cold stor-
age rooms for holding the butter they
are then forced to ship in small lots
which adds much to the cost of hand
ing the product.

SELECT GOOD POTATO SEED
FOR NEXT YEAR WITH CARE

MOT only should farmers be look
M ing over their potato fields
- with the view of selecting good
seed for next seasons crop, but they
should handle the potatoes dug with
the utmost care and look carefully
to grading and storing them, eau
tions F. M. Harrington, horticulturist
of the Montana Extension Service.
Last year there were great num-
Der of complaints received from far
mers who had had trouble with their
potatoes not keeping in storage be-
cause of dry rot. This dry rot, Mr..
Harrington advises, is caused by two
things: careless handling of the po-
tatoes during harvest, causing the
tubers to become bruised, crushed or
cut, and poor storage conditions.
Storage conditions have a great
deal to do with how the potatoes keep
even though they are in perfect con-
dition when stored. They should be
stored at a temperature under 40 de-
grees and in as dry place as pos
sible. Dry rot develops in potato
bins at a heat of from 40 to AZ deg
rees.
The potatoes should be graded be-
fore storing, eliminating all defect
i've tubers to be used for immediate
ALI potatoes that are
cut, bruised, sun burned, knobby,
cracked or evidently diseased should
not be stored.
Grading will show results in more
ways than one. Poor potatoes are
not marketable at good profit and
may cause a whole bin to spoil or
rot.
Formers should be considering
possibilities now for their next years

THE time of year in which to have
the dairy cow freshen is gen.
l. orally not given as much con-
sideration as the Importance of the
question might warrant So often
the herd sire is left to run with the
herd and as a result there is no ac-
curate record of the time of breed
ing, nor is there any attempt to regu-
late the time when the cows will
freshen.
Of those who plan to have their
COWS freshen at certain seasons of
the year, the largest number have
their cows come fresh in the spring
at the beginning of the flush season.

market for the products, the help ne
cessary for caring for the animals
and the scheme of farming practiced.
Because the cows do so well on
green grass, shortly after freshening
in the spring or early summer, many
dairymen are led to believe that the
greatest production for the year is
obtained from spring freshening.
This may be true if the conditions
during the remainder of the year are
not conducive to milk production, but
wherever conditions are favorable
records show that greater production
Is obtained from fall or winter fresh
ening.

WOOL GROWERS
MEETINGS LISTED

Interest of sheep men of the state
is centering around the series of wool
growers meetings to be held during
October and part of November while
all are awaiting word whether or
not c. j. Fawcett of the National
Wool Warehouse and Storage COM
pany of Chicago will be present with
discussions of the valuable charac-
teristics of wool from different lines
of breeding. Word from Mr.. Faw-
cett is expected daily.
Many sheep men who are interest
ed in silage as feed but who do not
want to go to the expense of put
ting up silo until they know whe-
Their their conditions warrant it, will
have an opportunity to have their
questions answered at these meet
ings.
The conditions where silage is apt
to prove of benefit to the sheep men
and those where it will not prove
beneficial, will be discussed by Dick
Millin, live stock specialist of the
Montana Extension Service. He will
also discuss the value of corn and
cake when fed with hay and on the
range and other points of interest in
the feeding and breeding of sheep.
In connection with Mr.. Fawcett's
tentative discussions, will be an ex-
hibit of number of fleeces repres-
enting the wool from Corriedale, Col
umbia, Rambouillet, Hampshire and
and various cross breeds. |
In addition to the speakers and ex-
hibits three-reel moving picture of
wool manufacture will be shown.
