becomes a problem for different or
CARNATIONS to cooperate in mapping
out possible plans which will give the
settler sure guarantee against fail
ure if he carries out the plan. 1t is
necessary to have detailed informa-
ton on the cost of equipping an ir-
rigated farm with buildings, fences.
machinery, livestock and everything
to carry on successful farming. Op-
Grating expenses must be estimated
for number of years including the
cost of feed, seed, leveling of land,
water costs, etc. Taxes and insur-
ance, depreciation on buildings and
equipment together with personal ex-
penses, including living, furniture
and fuel must all be estimated so
that man can get a fair idea of Just
how much cash he needs before he
anticipates settling on farm; then
actual figures from settlers who have
lived on this land are necessary to es-
innate what yields a man can ex-
pect from his crops and what money
he can expect to assist him in meet
ing his payments. After definite in
formation is obtained, then plans for
the payment of the land can easily
be estimated.

Yes, the dry land farmers of Phil
lips county have spent Is years ex-
perimenting and number who prac-
ticed diversification have won, while
others who wanted to make their
stake" in wheat have not been able
to retire but had to borrow money
to get out of the country and back
to their city jobs where they can be
of more use to society than on dry
land farms. Their farms are now for
sale at ones own price and if one
is a real farmer no better values can
be obtained than right now.
There are 48,258 acres of land I'M
der irrigation in this county, out of
which only $4,000 acres can be culti-
waited. This land can be bought
from $35 to $50 per acre, plus the
irrigation construction charges, but
40 years time will be given for pay
ing these charges. 1t has always
been a mystery to me why people
pay 5000 an acre for irrigated land
in the valleys of interior California,
L z
degrees in the shade most of the
summer, which produces very little
more than our Montana irrigated
farms where it is a pleasure to own
a home and enjoy the summer wea-
Their.
The Milk river project lies right
along the Great Northern railway
which brings every irrigated farm
within six miles of shipping point.
Alfalfa grows in abundance and from
four to five tons per acre are pro-
duced each year. The production of
certified Grimm alfalfa seed has be-
come a speciality. Last year this seed
was sold for SO cents per pound by
the growers because the purchaser
was guaranteed an absolutely pure
product. Farmers are slowly begin
ming to realize that alfalfa and cows
are the sure and reliable road to
success on these irrigated farms.
One of the big problems a begin
ner on irrigated farms has is to get
a cash crop and the Great Northern
bean has helped many solve this
problem. Twenty bushels per acre
is a common yield and last year the
growers realized z cents per pound
for the beans, giving them an in
come of S84 an acre-enough to pay
for their land after deducting the
cost of production. Edgar Lee, a !
successful irrigation farmer living at
Dodson, states that his potato and
bean land is flooded before planting
and no more water is needed to pro |
luce excellent yields. This proves a |
great advantage over the regions
where it is necessary to continue the |
irrigation during the whole summer
eason and more land can also be
armed and bigger profits realized
Sugar Beet Experimentation
This year there are 120 acres

THE, MIDDLENIAN

Charles P. Steinmetz is admired by capacity for doing big things in big
 way with electricity. He is probably as well informed on that subject as any other living human being. He has mastered the electric spark and made it his abject slave.
 When he allows his mind to be at- tracted by subjects foreign to his training he is apt to make statements which are at variance with the cx- pressed opinions of others whose train ing qualities them to be authorities on those subjects. Like Ford and Edi- son, he occasionally strays from the canyon which he has hewn out in his lfe's work and not always with pleas ant results.
 MT. Steinmetz prepared an address for luncheon of the Boston Chamber of Commerce and it was read, in due course, to the business men of that busting, eastern city In it, he suggest ed that a great deal of needless ex- pense could be avoided by minimizing the expenses and profits resulting from distribution by middlemen. He did not go so far as to say that the middle man himself should be eliminated, but he probably had that thought in the back of his marvellous brain.
 For some time it has been popular to lay the blame for the cost of dis on middlemen. No doubt they have wasteful methods, but what merchant can deny that. in rome re- spects, he also is sometimes extrava- gant, or to put it in milder tones, not careful of every penny spent? Tn our present economic arrangement the middleman is as essential as the rail- road. He is simply step in the dis tribution Of manufactured products. | The public must pay for his sales men. who are specialists in their own 1 territorics but it would also have to pay for the manufscturers' salesmen

THE IGNORANT TURK

The "unspeakable" characteristic of the Turk, so often referred to, sinks at the moment before his ignorance Of the true condition of affairs in Europe. The Angora government of which the Lausanne delegation was distinctly afraid, secs in Frances invasion of the Ruhr unsupported actively by Eng land, chasm between England and France which exists only in the mind that France and England may act in dependently upon a certain matter, and yet act in the most complete sym pathy with each other in regard to the demands of the Angora govern ment.
 The possession of an army so re- gently successful against Greece, and the fact that he has been successful in gaining points which the allies be- grudged him, has made the Turk be- lieve his power is feared to far greater degree than is the fact. The matter of principle is a small ono to him and he fails to see that he cannot play at the dangerous game of war without meeting united opposition from the allies. He even thinks Italy might aid him, and he is quite sure that Russia is only waiting.
 It is unthinkable that England will back down from her stand warning the Turk against firing upon the war ships before Smyrna, and it is almost as inconceivable that the Turk will obeys that command.

THE SALVATION ARMY

The tone of the request for in- formation made by Commander Dewey Selander, of the Disabled Vet erans of the World War, calls for a compliance with such request at least as far as a discussion of the reasons for the exclusion of the Salvation Army from the funds Of the United Community corporation goes MT &c., lander says we assure you (the United Community corporation) that any substantiol reason will be upheld by this organization.
 The Herald may speak only for it. self in this matter. having in no sense been deputized by the United Com- munity organization to speak for it. And as far as this newspaper is con- cerned it's sympathies are entirely with the Disabled Veterans of the World War in their plea for the Sal- vation Army. Even those remotely connected with the world war know of the affection for the Salvation Army held by every fighting man who was in need, at any time, of help. \ great human sympathy moved it's members to deeds of kindness which sometimes amounted to necessity. Nothing seem- ed too hard for the Army to undertake and carry through.
 Moreover men and women who have come in contact with the art-broken, the Respondent of the world in times of peace, know of the great good members of the army have done. Few of the well-fed. self-satisfied of the country appreciate these things. It would be revoltingly unpleasant for thsCi to look such things in the face.

YALE HAS NEW PLANS.
Engineering Asso. to Raise Fund for
 Summer Camp Buildings.

New Haven, Feb. 9.-The Yale En- gineering Association at recent meeting announced it's decision to raise fund for buildings at the summer camp for the Sheffield Sci entific school on the property at East Lyme For number of years the Sheffield trustees have been adding to their property around Sheffield lake, and now own 2,000, acres-a tract of rugged land, extending three miles in one direction, and at one point for two and half miles in the other. This property has been used for sev- eral years for the summer courses in surveying which form part of the curriculum of the school, but the work has been very much restricted because of the lack of buildings.
 The Yale Engineering Association, which has a membership of nearly 1,200 members, will make an impor- tant contribution to the development of engineering at Yale, by raising funds for buildings at the East Lyme, camp, making possible the finest sumner surveying course in the country.
