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 an
nual Girls Vocational congress at the
State college in Bozeman have re-
turned home after attending a meet
ing that set 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
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 67 to an attendance of nearly 800.
Dean Herrick was given a great ova-
ton at the closing of the program.
Girls heard discussions upon agricul-
ture, Y. w. G. A. work, home econ
omics, clothing design, extension
work and social service.

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-
ize its 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.
It has been happy combination
and it is not over-optinistic to state
that that section of the state will
be "back on its feet" much sooner
than many have dared to hope"

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 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,
Is 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
we're shipped to market from that
county. This year there will be
almost 40. Silos are being built
and sheep and dairy stock are be-
ng added to hundreds of farms.

NORTHERN COUNTY AGENTS

Phillips county was one of the
first counties to go in for corn. In
1922, better than 1900 acres
were raised. This year the acre
age was between $4,000 and 49,
600. County Agent Lantz has been
able to avoid the catastrophe of
over-production of this new crop

by working out a scheme of coop
Grafton between the farmers of hi:
county and the sheepmen and cat
tlemen of that county and its neigh
bor,, Blaine, whereby spring lambs
and other stock have been fattenec
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 J. 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 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 we'll established
in the hog industry, there being
1850 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
Dads of the latter will be shipped |
rom Blaine county this year than
yer in its history. In both Phil
ips and Blaine counties next year,
ystems of dry land irrigation are
o be worked out. Alfalfa to fur
lish protein feed for stock and Il
o balance corn feed is the objective
hat the county agents and the
are working toward.
Wheat in Sheridan County.
Wheat still predominates in
meridian county. More than 100,-
90 acres were sowed with this
rop in 1923 and because of the
ust, the yield was cut to 10 to Is
'ushels an acre. But corn has
lade an impression, more than r. H
90 acres being planted to that
rop during the last season. Dairy

and hog raising is
citing substantial foothold. Ac-
