BIG TEAMS ARE FACTOR IN
Low PRODUCTION COST

The farmers who sold the largest
amount Of produce from their dry lane
farms In Phillips county last year were
those who farmed with eight or more
horses, according to H. L. Lantz, coun-
ty agent. In a survey carried on by
the county agent 1t was found that sew
eral farmers came out ahead on their
grain farming In spite OF the low re-
turns per bushel because Of the low
cost Of production due to their ability
to farm large acreages by using big
teams.
The survey further showed the ad-
visibility Of allowing live stock to do
the corn harvesting, according to Mr..
Lantx. In many cases farmers who
used this method OF harvesting and
were thus enabled 10 market their
crops ION the hoof," realized twenty
dollars per acre from their corn crops.
On the matter Of size of farms, Mr..
Lantz concluded from HIS survey that
there were manv half section farms In
his county where a man could make
a good living provided he started out
OF debt. On the other hand, he stated
that 1t would be difficult matter to
pay off a big mortgage with from 40
to 100 acres Of cultivated land unless
some higher priced crop than corn and
small grain was raised. he found a
few farmers on half sections of land
who were making success by raising
corn, hogs, turkeys, chickens, small
grain. feed crops and milking cows,
and concluded that there were many
other half section farms In Phillips
county where proper diverslficatlon
would result in good labor incomes.

DIVERSIFICATION IS
BEING CARRIED OUT
Census Shows Advancement Along
This Line Among Montana
Farmers

The extent to which the diversified
tion movement Is being carried out in
Montana Is indicated by a recent cen
sus taken In Daniels county by County
Agent A. w. Warden. While the emu
meration is considered as being only
about so per cent complete, 1t very
well shows the general advancement In
this northern Montana county, accord
Ing to Mr.. Warden.
AS a result Of the good crops Of 1922
and 1923 the general crop acreage in
creased from ZOOS acres in 1923 to
Abs In 1924, approximately 100 per
cent.
Flax showed the greatest Increase
with 8,20S acres in 1920 and 11,404
acres in 1924. This total ACREAGE may
be euFtailed a little, according to Mr..
Warden, because Of the scarcity Of
flax seed toward the end Of the plant
ing season and because of the latenessI
of the spring.
The drift towards livestock is indl-H
Gated by the report Of a total Of 525
brood sows and 1904 turkey hens re-
served by farmers OF the county for
breeding purposes. Allowing the con-
sentative figure of five pigs to the
litter, Mr.. Warden estimates that Dan
iels county farmers viii have $500
head Of pigs to sell during the coming
year. The turkey cron should amount
to at least 100 tons OF dressed turkeys,
II favorable growing conditions pre-
vail during the summer.
The movement toward a wider range
OF crops and more definite assurancel
of sufficient feed supply for livestock
is brought out by the intentions of the
farmers to plant 40 acres of sweet
clover, AZ acres OF alfalfa, 30 acres OF I
beans and great many additional
acres OF such crops as millet, cane, rye
grass and other feed crops.
