where the patient was helpless.
Mr.. James H. Allen, of Rochester

NOTORIOUS TOWN OF WEST
PASsES-EVEN TRAINS
NOW GIVE 1T "0o.RY'

WASHINGTON. D. C.-The tough
est town of the West has passed. The
wonder Is 1t survived so many years
after the 18th Amendment took effect.
Mondak Station, just over the North
Dakota line in Montana, has been
closed. the Montana Railroad Com
mission officially informs the Inter-
state Commerce officials of Wash
ington.
Train crews that always worried
over their proximity to death while In
that vicinity now wave light hand"
at the barred station doors and almost
depleted population of a one.time wild
and woody Western burg. The noto-
riety Of the town was so widespread
| that former Indian commissioners at
Washington used to offer thanks that
the Glacier National Park Indian res
ervation and the Fort Peck agency
were situated far enough in the
western part of Montana to be out of
harms way Of Mondak's untamed
night life
1t was a typical staggering bully
of a town spraddled across the rail
way track, clearing house for all the
booze, vice and crime for the sur.
rounding country.
Hundreds Of gamblers used to
make Mondak their headquarters. fol
1t was the town that supplied dry
North Dakota as far east as Devils
Lake with it's recreation In tho form
of games of chance and bar BOOZE
The onductors Of trains that
stopped in Mondak had to qualify az
fist fighters as we'll as railroad mon

TO MAKE STONE FOREST
A NEW NATIONAL PARK

Commercial interests In Arizona are
asking their representatives in con-
gress to take steps to establish Ari-
zonas present national monument"
the famous "petrified forest" as ma
tional park. Last season more than
$4,000 motor cars passed through the
stone forest, over the National Old
Trails Road, bringing upward Of Co.,
900 visitors to the region, exclusive
of those who visited in other vehicles.
The commercial interests of Ari-
iona point to statistics of other states
and the results of other national
parks in increasing travel, instancing
among others that Glacier National
Park last year drew more than 3d.
900 touring cars over the Custer Bat

1t is desired to Fave the stone for

a five-year rotation were planned fol-

This would increase the cultivated
land, reduce the acreage in clover and

labor to harvest both crops at the

more extensive oat raising sections,
sugar beets would work into the crop

farmer takes kindly to the sugar beet
crop.
Labor
A crop of sugar beets requires the
employment Of extra labor at thin.
ming time and at harvest time. Thin.
ming beets Is about as laborious and
monotonous an operation as will be
found in any kind of farming. II
must bs done promptly when the time
comes, otherwise the development OF
the beets will be seriously delayed.
Prompt thinning is doubly imperative
in Western Washington, because Of
the fast weed growth which may
smother the young beet seedlings
The labor requirement for thinning
bsets will vary somewhat, depending
upon the distance between rows OF
beets. Usually where rows are 20 to
"a inches apart, which is the recon-.
mended distance in other sugar beet
districts, one man will thin at the rate
Of one acre in five days.
1t Is desirable to get the beets har-
vested before the hard freezes occur
and before the heavy rains Of Novem-
Dor and December. This means ex.
ira labor again during this period in
order to accelerate pulling, topping,
piling and covering the beets. The
labor required for these combined op-
erations will be based upon one man
harvesting at the rate of one acre in
four days. From this 1t can be seen
that the greatest labor requirement

Sugar Beets--An Old Crop

KUCH interest has been recently

the crop and how successfully we can
meet those requirements on our farms
will be of material help.
Soil and Climate
Sugar beets will grow well in this
climate. The growing season Is fully
long enough, and the moderate sum
mer days with cool nights are propi-
tious.
The sandy loan, silt loan and clay
loan soils of our bottom lands will all
produce good yields of beets. Much
bottom land Is poorly drained, and for
that reason would be unsuitable, but
this condition could either be- correct
ed or avoided Well drained muck

Our upland soils would generally be
quite poorly adapted for sugar beet
raising.
Sugar beets have been included
each year in root crop variety trials
at the Station for a number Of years,
and have yielded, on the average. rs
tons per acre. Rows were spaced 30
inches Beets grown in Skagit and
Whatcom counties last year yielded
from 10 to % tons per acre. The sugar
content of these beets averaged 1874

readily met, making possible salts.

Crop Rotation
1t has been found to be very desir

then follows this cultivated crop, since
it can act as a nurse crop for the
