GRAIN LOADINCS
LESS THAN 1923

Although total railroad car load
ings were lighter the first two
months of this year than the same
period in 1923, several lines Of bust
ness and industry i'll Montana have
shown improvement. In the two
months mentioned one more car of
automobiles was shipped into the
state this year, in this period, than
last year, and the movement of mules
and horses, cattle, hogs, flour and
mill stuffs, fruit and vegetables and
mining products was aDpreciably hea-
vier in 1924 for January and Feb
ruary than for the same two months
in 1928.
Figures taken from the reports of
railroad companies to the Montana
railroad commission also seem to in
dictate that the p1 ocess of diversity
ing Montana's agriculture also is
making headway-to date without
governmental or outside assistance.
AS an illustration, taking compare
tive figures for the months of Feb
ruary, wheat shipments this year de-
creased from 2,057 cars to 1886
cars, while dried peas and beans in
creased from 80 cars to AZ cars; po-
tatoes increased from 81 to 43 cars;
fruit and vegetables increased from
nine to 16 cars and smaller increases
were registered in the miscellaneous
crops.
In the mining industry the follow
ing changes were noted in comparing
February car loadings in 1924 with
the same month in 1928: copper in
creased from 416 to 523; concen-
trates increased from GA to 1856;
Stag and tailings decreased from 1859
to 257; ore shipments increased from
4456 to 1899.
Fourteen more cars of crushed
rock were shipped in the state this
year, the total being So; crude oil
shipments increased from 708 to
S64, and refined oil from $50 to 1876.
Shipment of logs increased from
1,76S to 1851.
The total number of car loadings
for February this year was 24,100,
compared to 26,892 in 1928, 21,193
in 1922, and 1890 in 1921. All
figures given are for both interstate
and intrastate traffic.

Chinook-Ten car loads of hogs
have been shipped by the Blaine
County Marketing association.
Reports from the Suf-

crop conditions in that section at this
time of the year never were better.

Gus precincts for the presidential
primary to be held May 27, show a

2,447 as against s.242 in 1920.
Baker-Sixty-seven cases of eggs

have been sent from the local post

Sidney-A second six-car special
train, direct from Ell Paso, Texas, ar
rived here with 300 Mexicans to go

This brings the total of Mexican la
borers in this community up to 900.

until recently a serious problem.

FLAX ACREAGE TO
BE INCREASED

"HE Montana flax acreage in 1924
will be limited only to the
II amount of seed available, and
farmers are advised by County Agent
F. E. McSpadden to locate their seed
supply as early as possible. Cards
have been sent to all farmers in Cas-
cade county, asking for information.
Mr.. MacSpadden states that there
will be a large increase in flax acre
age in Montana this year, and in
structions in handling the crop will
be furnished by his office, also the
Montana agricultural experiment sta
ton at BoZeman.
Montana ranks fourth among
American flax producing states" said
Mr. MacSpadden, and will mode than
double her acreage this year because
the crop returned good yields in 1928
and brought fairly high price, Mon
tana keeps among the leaders in flax
production because she has much new
land where flax is an ideal crop and
because the crop does well on old
land that is in proper condition"
According to government statistics
the United States uses four times as
much flax as is produced in normal
years. AS protection to the Ameri-
can grower, there is tariff of 40
cents per bushel on imported flax.
Most of the imported flax comes from
the Argentie, where there is now
big crop moving. The March price in
Buenos Aires, Argentine, was $1.60;
the March Is price in Dulth, Mimi,
was $3.50. 1t is estimated that the
United States flax acreage will be in
creased by SO per cent this year, but
it is believed that with this increase
there will be enough flax produced to
meet American demands. There are
many predictions that the flax price
will remain fairly high this year.
Instruction to farmers sent out by
the county agent contain the informa-
ton that flax is not a good weed
fighter. Land where flax is to be
seeded should be free from weeds and
must have a firm seed bed. New
breaking is the ideal land for flax,
but fallowed land or corn land fur
nish a good seed bed. Land should
be gone over with duck foot or sim
liar implement early in the season to
start the weed growth. Just before
seeding all weeds should be killed by
shallow cultivation and it is impor-
tant that the seed bed should not be
stirred too deeply and made too loose.
1t is wise plan to treat seed before
planting.
Much of the trouble experienced
with flax has come through lack of
knowledge of the crop. 1t requires
special treatment and care and coun-
ty agents will furnish information
about all steps in the handling if the
crop, and farmers may write to the
Bozeman experiment station for cir
culars on planting and harvesting.

BE CAREFUL 1M SELECTING
SEED CORN, SAYS EXPERT

water and this may be more econ
omically secured from the well.
Where conditions are as variable
as they are in Montana it is to
be expected that the extreme types
of corn which may be grown will
also vary. One must be governed
by local practice and the results of
local experience and local variety
tests. Silver King is about the lat
est variety grown successfully IN
the state and is grown largely in
Rosebud and Custer counties.
Paynes White Dent is quite similar
in behavior. Minnesota Is is pop
ular variety which is represented
by various strains both early and
late. While not as late as Silver
King it is not recommended except
in the southeastern portion of the
state and number of other favor
able localities scattered over Mon
tana. These varieties are late and
usually require from ITO to $50
days for maturity.
Late flints are noted for their
leafiness, fineness of stalks and
comparatively high yields of fod-
der. Varieties such as Mercer, Tri-
umph and Longfellow are popular
where corn is harvested by machin-
cry and threshed with an ordinary
grain separator. They are quite
late and mature only where Min
nesota Is is safe.
For the greater part of Montana,
corn varieties known as the semi
dents are the most dependable pro-
ducers of roughage. Northwest
ern Dent and Minnesota % are in
the lead. Local trials will deter
mine the choice. These varieties
are reasonably early and usually
mature in less than 100 days.
Whatever varieties are given it IS
best to use home grown acclimated
seed. Seed corn does not run out"
if properly selected. Three worth
while suggestions regarding seed
corn are: CD secure corn of well
selected adapted varieties; (2)
make sure that the seed is strong
and vigorous; (3) grade seed corn
to insure even planting.
No matter how rich the soil, how
excellent the seed bed or how thor
ough the cultivation, if the seed is
poor or mediocre, poor or mediocre
results will follow.
