It was on the strength of this con-

of variety of crops, among which
corn received attention.

he puts in his 200 ton silo. Every
visitor to the Corn show should make
an attempt to visit his ranch.
Sweepstakes Winner
One of the corn cranks of the coun-
ty is E. G. Miller, known over the
entire state of Montana. Mr.. Miller
is known for his listing methods in
the production of all crops, but es-
pecially for growing corn. Mr.. Miller
won the sweepstakes corn cup at the
Northwestern Montana Corn show at
Malta last year, and is determined to
win it again this year at Chinook.
A new yellow dent corn, known as
the golden glow, has been introduced
into the county by Mr.. Miller, in
which he has unbounded faith and
believes in time will supersede the
reliable dent.
From the point of years that corn
has been grown in Blaine county, we
have to take off our hats to John
Kramer and Rodolph Hermes of
Chinook, living in the valley under
the irrigation ditch. These two farm
ers have raised corn for 80 years, get
ting their seed from the Indians and
never failing to produce their own
seed from year to year.
Corn has been established and is
rapidly assuming proportions that at
tract the attention of every farmer
in Blaine county. 1t is not an I'M
common thing to see a 50-acre field
of corn in almost any section of the
county. Even in the mountainous
region of the Bearpaws, stockmen
are turning to corn for the solution
of their feed problems.
The only problem now before the
farmers of Blaine county is to pro-
duce homegrown seed corn to supply
the demand. They have learned from
sad experience, and at the point of
being absolutely discouraged, that it
does not pay to ship in corn from
outside states. The farmers who are
leading the way are cooperating with
County Agent G.. A. Gustafson and
the extension service in the produc
tion of adapted and tested seed corn.
Nothing less than approved seed
corn satisfies the most particular
corn grower, hence a few have asked

purity of their seed corn. A few are
raising corn from certified seed OBJ
tanned through their county agent.
Corn planted from such early seed
indicates the value of good
selected and adapted seed corn. L. i
G. Stevens Of Chinook will plant moth
ing but certified seed corn, and he
asserts he can tell to the row the
difference between the non-certified
seed and the certified seed.
Jess Conrad of the Fairview COM
munity disposed of 25 acres of corn
in 1922 by turning 100 head of hogs
into it, and "hogged off" the major
portion of it in a neat profit of
$1,000. After hogging it off, he
turned his cattle into it, cleaning up
every bit of the fodder.

the most skeptic will be convinced
about raising corn in northern Mon
tana, when they visit the Corn show
which will be held in Chinook from
November 8 to 10.
The fact that Blaine county ship
ped out IA carloads of hogs during
the last 10 months should argue
strongly in favor of the soundness
of raising corn. What surer cash
crop can a rancher produce than
that? A sure market every day OF
the year for corn is possible, when
utilized in this way.
The dairyman will tell you he has
insured a regular and steady income
because of his corn field to supply the
fodder. A. S. Baldwin of Chinook
will challenge you to an income of
$3.50 a month from herd of IL

David Fast of the Holland COM

cows by the virtue of the corn which
he produced this year. A. A. Bunker
of Lehman with his pit silo is secure
for the year with his so acres of corn
to go in it for his mich cows.
Harvey Marsh of Chinook will tell
you that without his rs acres of corn
it would be a question for him to
care for and feed more than 100 head
of purebred hogs. So far, he has
found ready sale for his picked
purebreds, and the balance is dispos-
ed of through the ordinary market.
L. B. Taylor of Lloyd is not worry
