Use of Gypsum Improves
The Soil of Sanders County

hay on adjoining land was brown and
parched. 1t appeared that the gyp-
sum had stimulated plant growth to
the extent that the roots developed
more rapidly and extended to lev
els of moisture which other plants
did not reach.
On many farms where test plots
had been conducted in 1928, 1t was
difficult to obtain comparisons in
1924 because the farmers were SO
pleased with the results that they
treated their entire acreage, leav-
ing no %untreated plots for checking
purposes. Farmers in a number of
the communities have gone together
to order carload lots of gypsum and
it's use promises to be greatly extend
ed in 1925.
The experimental work will be
continued in an effort to determine
the effect of different soil and CHM
attic conditions upon the use of gyp-
sum. In the absence of a county
agent at the present time the locat-
ing of test plots and the checking of
results has become a problem but
the Extension Service is planning,
nevertheless, to go on with the work.

cords gives promise of high produc-
ton. Snowflake also has a younger
daughter, two grandaughters, and a
grand son. A truly outstanding
family of seven COWS that has been
developed from a single COW that is
now only six years old.
Like most good COWS, Snowflake
has the essential conformation of a
great producer. She is a large,
strong, rugged cow, deep in body and
has a great capacity for food. Her
udder is of good size and is excellent
in quality. The large milk veins and
prominent milk wells also indicate
her great productive capacity.
Aside from the conditions under
which the record was made the point
of greatest interest lies in the fact
that all the feeds used were home
grown with the exception of the small
amount of oil meal, and this, says
Mr.. Tretsven, may have come origi-
nally from Montana flax. It is
another splendid illustration that the
home grown feeds are quite sufficient
in themselves when fed in the right
way to the right kind of COWS.

In Bulletin II of the Montana

Reducing the Cost of Montana,s

Wilson and H. E. Murdoch have the
following to say: There should be
a relation between yields per acre
and cost of harvest per acre. Prac-
tees adapted to high yielding land
do not always apply to low yielding
land. Inventive Montana farmers
are concerned with the problem of
changing their methods until low
yielding wheat can be harvested
economically, just as they have de
vised means of seeding and tillage
at low acre costs. Systems are de-
veloped whereby one man a null

Being able to draw, lightened the

all would get a laugh out of it, and

a wonderful test for a mans mettle.

It was reiterated yesterday at the
White House that participation OF
Americans in the committee Of experts
invited by the reparations commission

many's economic situation does not
indicate in any way. that the United
States government has any idea OF
Participating offcially in the activi-
ties of the reparations commission or
to make any other change in Its In
ternational policies.
This was made known following In.
ouiries regarding the reported i'm
preston of the public of Europe that
the participation OF the American ex-
perts was merely q first step of the
United States In becoming moro ac-
tive in European affairs
A spokesman for the President, in
putting at rest this inference, made
1t plain that the unofficial partici-
patton could not give the impression
Of further participation on the part
Of the American government, inas-
much as the latter has taken no part,
and has no idea Of doing so.
Dawes, Young and Robinson, the
American experts invited by the rep
arations commission to assist In i'm.
proving affairs in Germany are serv-
ing merely at the invitation OF the

wise officially representing the United

It was pointed out also that any

them should not be taken to repre-
sent or reflect the policies " the
