ST. Olaf Choir to Sing
Here Sunday Afternoon

The St. Olaf Lutheran Choir with
F. Melius Christensen as director.
will appear in concert at the Murat
Sunday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock.
The choir is brought here under
the auspices of the City Walther
League of Indianapolis.
The beginning of the ST. Olaf Lu-
theran Choir dates back more than
a score Of years. 1t was first known
as the St. Johns Church Choir, but
the name was changed in 1912 to the
st. Olaf Choir. as most of the mem
bers were students of st. Olaf College.
1t was at that time that the choir
made it's first tour, III GLIDING such
cities as Minneapolis, Milwaukee and
Chicago.
During the years 1912-1920 short
annual tours were made, principally
through mid-western States. In 1918
the choir, which is very largely com
posed of young people of Norwegian
parentage, visited the Scandinavian
countries and gave about thirty five
concerts abroad Enormous crowds
greeted them everywhere. and press
comments were extremely favorable
At its first appearance in Christi
ania, Norway. the King and Queen
attended the concert. and at the close
came forward to greet the director
and the choir. and to express their
profound admiration. More recently
1920-1923, the choir has visited the
larger cities of our own cour y. 1t
l.
ferent occasions, the last time in the
Metropolitan Opera House. 1t is ac-
knowledged everywhere to be one of
the best choral organizations in
America, if not in the world.
The choir always sings without ac-
compartment and from memory. The
programs rendered contain selections
from the hest sacred choral music
from Johan Sebastian Bach to the
present tIma Usually the program is
divided into three groups separated by
short intermissions. during which the
choir leaves the stage The choir al
ways stands while singing-a compact
portable platform arranged in tiers
being used TO bring out the best en-
sembIe effects.
All the members Of the choir are
students-at ST Olaf College. and
very littls time is available each year
for concert tours. Il has always been
recognized that the first consideration
and prime duty OF these boys AMI
girls Is their academic work.

Montana Should Prepare to
Meet the Dockage Problem

as sold and raised the grade one or
more points.
1t is even more important to care
fully clean the grain that is to be
used for seed for the amount of for
eign material and undesirable seed
in the seed grain largely determines
the amount of dockage for the COM
ing year. 1t is reported that SO per
cent of the spring wheat farmers in
1922 planted from 1000 to half a
million weed seeds per acre with their
seed wheat. Millions of bushels more
of spring wheat could have been
grown on the land if the wheat plants
had not been crowded out by weeds.
Screenings or dockage can be re-
moved from wheat or rye with port
able disc grain cleaners at a cost of
two or three cents a bushel. A num-
Der of these machines will be in OPP
Grafton in the spring wheat states
this year and many other farmers
will be able to get first hand infor-
nation as to how much the cleaning
of wheat is worth.
The average docKage for the spring
wheat states shows Montana at the
bottom of the list. North Dakota was
highest, showing an average dock
age of 11.3 per cent, South Dakota
next with TT per cent, Minnesota 7.2
per cen and Montana 2.5 per cent.
Thus while the dockage problem can
hardly be considered serious in Mon
tana yet, the figures for the other
states indicate that Montana farm
ers must be prepared.
Dockage material consists largely
of weed seeds, cracked and shrunken
kernels of grain, chaff, broken stems
and straws, dirt and other foreign
material. Screenings often consti-
tute from 10 to 20 per cent of the
grain as it m from the threshing

From Montana State College

ONTANA'S dockage problem
MI canot be considered as serious
~ yet says A. J. Ogaard, agrono-
mist for the Montana State College
Extension Service, and yet the ex-
periences of the older wheat growing
states in the spring wheat belt indi-
cate that farmers here will have to
take steps to avoid the trouble and
losses hat come from foul grain
fields.
While the dockage problem is still
of little Importance the time is ripe
to act to prevent it from becoming
important. Proper crop rotations,
the use Of pure, clean seed, summer
tillage, care in graduating weeds, the
use of proper tillage tools, commun-
ity cooperation in combating the
pernicious weeds and other measures
are advocated as means of maintain
ing clean wheat fields. These prac-
tees, which all come under the head
of good farming, are worth consid-
ering on the part of Montana farmers,
if for no other reason than to hold
down dockage losses In years to
come.
"A lllIl6 I0dllZdIlOu OIL Lu0 mpOlt-
of maintaining clean wheat
fields is had from a review of condi-
lions in the spring wheat states
where the dockage problem is acute.
The farmers in these states, compris-
ing North Dakota, South Dakota,
Minnesota and Montana, last year,
hauled nearly 100000 bushels of
screenings from their farms and ship
ped them to terminal markets. After
the farmers had paid a $675,00O
threshing bill on these screenings,
they proceeded to pay around $780,
900 to send them to market. Then,
instead of receiving anything for the
screenings, their presence actually
helped reduce the price received for
The wheat.
The screenings, removed by clean
srs, sold for from 50 to $12 a ton
and were then ground up and ship
ped back to the farmers as ready
mixed feed. 1t Is estimated that in
his way the grain farmer gave away
millions of dollars worth of feed
which should have been removedat
he farm and turned into a gain in
tead of a dead loss.
Spring wheat farmers who cleaned
heir market wheat on the farm In
.923 gained more than 5 cents per
Iushel, due to the fact that the

EXPERTS
TALK CULLINC

A SERIES of poultry culling ant
n ~caponizing demonstrations were
held recently in Phillips county
where 1926 people were not only in.
formed concerning the principles Of
the art but were permitted to view
actual demonstrations.
These meetings were arranged
through the county agents office and
were conducted by Miss Harriette
Cushman, poultry specialist from
Montana State College. Ten demon
strations were conducted in the diff
ferent parts of the county. Practi-
cally every farm community of Phil
lips county has had n of these
demonstrations within the last three
years and already many good results
are seen since culling is becoming a
general practice among the farmers.
One important result of the demon
stration has been that farmers are
convinced that it does not pay to
raise mixed chickens since every flock
of mied birds had a much larger per
centage of culls than the pure bred
flock.
H. J. Rock of Black Coulee
community began following methods
suggested by the extension depart
ment three years ago and today has a
good flock of White Wyandottes that
are producing him a good monthly
income. Last year he built a model
poultry house that has given him 100
per cent satisfaction to keep his hens
in excellent condition for winter lay
His house is dry, warm, well
ventilated, and absolutely free from
in the winter time. Many farm
ers are planning their poultry houses
this model type.
Del Hodges of Flat Rock com
near Whitewater practiced
caponizing last year and believes it
Is the only system to dispose of all
the cockerels that are not sold early
for friers. BY following this prac-
lice the young pullets will have a bet
ter chance to mature and the old hens
will not produce fertile eggs in the
summer time.
Several flocks culled were infected
with tuberculosis. Most of these be-
infected by trading and buying
hens from neighborhood
1ocks--a dangerous practice for
my farmer.
Picnic dinners were given at most
# the places and at Harb commun-
iy a picture show was given in the
,vening which was attended by a
crowd. The Rudolph Valley
community had a picnic in connection
18th the demonstration and about 100
eople attended.

NEW WELL AT kelvin
FLOWS 1000 BARRELS

The Crumley-McKnig
Corey No. 2 we'll is the latest to
come into production in the Kelvin
field. The flush production was
estimated at 1000 barrels a day.
Preparations had been made prior
to the completion of the well to
to keep the oil under control, and
it was not permitted to become a
gusher, but from the force with
which the casing was filled, it was
thought that the flow would have
gone over the derrick had it not
been confined. The sand was en-
tered at 1905 feet and drilled to
1909.
The completion Of the Crume1y-
Mcknight tends to further prove
n of the best producing locations
in the northern Montana field and
it is expected to have an import
ant influence on developments of
the future. 1t is a direct offset to
the Queen City No. 1, which is re-
garded by some operators as per-
haps the best well in the field.
The well vas drilled to compile
ton in 16 days after it was spud-
ded in, making the job a close APP
proach to the fields record.
h completion of the Crumley-
Mcknight serves to greatly in
crease interest in other wells drill
ing near the Queen City, and the
Whitman-Sunburst-Co Corey, a third
offset is drilling. The Queen City
Is drilling its No. 2 a short distance
east of the No. 1.

NATIONS PIG CROP
IS DECREASING

r Asst seasons prophecies of a fall
ing off in the pig crop in this
- country are being realized, say
R. B. Millin of the Montana State
College Extension Service. While
Montana's pig crop has increased that
of the country as a whole has dropped
considerably, bringing hog production
down to a more normal basis.
The report on the national survey
carried out during the month of June
to determine the present condition of
the hog business discloses that the
spring pig crop in the corn belt states
is around 10000 less than last
year.
The June survey shows hat the
flood of hog production in the corn
belt that reached its high point in
the spring crop of 1928 is now rapid
ly receding and has about reached a
normal level.
The survey was made by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
in cooperation with the post office de-
partment. Rural mail carriers were
used to collect the necessary informa-
ton and $4,000 farms located in all
sections of the United States are in
CluueQ LII the report.
A decrease of about 81 per cent
in the number of sows narrowed for
the country as a whole in the spring
of 1924 from the spring of 1928 is
shown in the survey. Because of a
slight increase in the average number
of pigs saved per litter this spring
the reduction in number of pigs is 20
per cent.
The number of sows bred or to be
bred for fall narrowing this year
shows a decrease of six per cent
from the number narrowed last fall.
This indicates a probable reduction
of 10 to Is per cent in fall pigs,
provided June intentions are not mod
flied materially by subsequent condi-
tions, since a considerable per cent
of bred sows do not produce pigs.
The decrease in the number of
sows narrowed this spring in the
corn belt states is II per cent and
of pigs saved II per cent, while the
number of sows bred for fall shows a
decrease of IL per cent. All other
regions show a sharp decrease in
the 1924 spring crop although indi-
vidual states in the far west show
increases. In the south central states
from Kentucky to Texas, !
the decrease is SO, per cent. All
regions except the corn belt show
more sows bred to farrow this fall
than narrowed last fall.

From Montana State College

Wv yHILE the average Montana
M hen was laying SO eggs ( {
W year, the birds belonging t.
the members of the Capital City
Poultry Club, the leading poultry
club of the state, were producing los
eggs a year, according to Charles E
Potter, boys and girls club leader
for Montana. Typifying the spirit OF
club work, the three boy members OF
this organization, actually taught
their parents and their neighbors,
"how to do it." The practices of feed
ing, breeding, housing and manage
ment in which these boys excelled are
being adopted by those around them
and a real improvement in the poul-
try practices of the community is eV-
ident.
The work of Albert Day, president
of the club is outstanding. He has
been a club member for seven conse-
cutive years, the last three of which
have been devoted to poultry. Al
bert started his club work when but
nine years old, deyoting himself par
ticularly to garden work at a time
when the World War demanded the
greatest possible production. Today
at Is he has developed a leadership
ability that speaks volumes for his
training in club work.
When Albert started poultry club
work he took over the family flock
and since his father had been a we'll
known poultry breeder, the birds
were in good condition and of excel
lent breeding, and their management
had been considerably better than
that given the ordinary barnyard
flock of chickens. However, Albert
found that the houses in which the
birds were kept were not the best for
Montana conditions, SO one of the
first improvements made out of the :
returns of the business, was the err
ection of a new and modern hen
house, which gives the birds every
possible protection and comfort.
While the feeding practices of the
Day flock were such as to allow lit
tie Improvement, Albert did in
troduce the feeding of sprouted oats
in the winter time with such excel
lent results hat a number of the
were induced to do like
wise.

F~ifty-six cars of livestock and IL
cars of wool were shipped from points
on the Butte division of the Great
Northern from July 1 to 8, inclusive,
according to Clarence Hogan, chief

largely flour. Eleven cars of coal
left stations on the division and 3S
cars of ore. The wool shipments
for the week included nearly 400, 900

states.
AS an indication of the feeding val
ue of dockage it has been found that
average screenings as they come
from the thresher have a value for
livestock feeding purposes nearly eq-
ual to oats. Heavier screenings
from which the chaff and lighter MAJ
terial has been removed has a feeding
value equal to that of heavier grains,
