FACING BREAD-FRUIT TREE

Food That for Centuries Sustained South Sea
Islanders Threatened With Extinction.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1924-02-14
By R. B. Bowden

GOD SEED does not "just
T happen along" In the last
~ few weeks Montana news
paper readers have been stirred to
enthusiasm by reports of the win
nings of Montana grains and
grasses at the Chicago Interna-
tional Hay and Grain show. These
winnings have given Montana a
definite leadership among Ameri-
can states in the growing of high
quality small grains. And the av-
erage Montanan, reading the re-
ports that went over the state,
probably sat back and praised his
state, its soil, its climate and its
type of farming. Too many read
ers have failed to search for the
fact behind these winnings, to
learn the "why" and the chow" of
Montana's indisputable small grain
leadership. Many thought the seed
winnings just happened that way.
Back of these years of great win
nings at Chicago, back of the I'm
precedented showing of Montana
grains at the Oklahoma Dry Farm
ing congress and again at the Pan
ama-Pacific exposition in 1915,
stands a body of Montana farmers
who call themselves the Montana
Seed Growers association. For
the sake of a quick conclusion it
may be said here that this organi-
cation has done more to place Mon
tana at the head in small grain
farming than have all other fac
tors combined. Without state aid,
without wide publicity or general
statewide recognition, this body of
men, under the leadership of state
college experts in agronomy, has
been slowly but surely improving
the quality and type of Montana's
grains until this state now stands

the best grain types for that area
then there is a demonstration of
the superiority of certain types
throughout the county that every
farmer may see results with his
own eyes third, there is the grow
ing of the supply of this pure seed
and the continuation of the supply
through approved growers. In
this third class one finds members
of the Montana Seed Growers as
ISOLATION.
One other little side business of
the Seed Growers association is
worthy of comment. 1t is foster
ing interest in pure seed by grain
Judging contests. A. H. Stafford,
a Boezman farmer, won the 1924
seed growers medal as the best
grain judge at the Farmers short
course at Bozeman Fred Weather
son of Columbus won the open
competition for all farmers and was
given a medal; Cecil Ashley of
Hillcrest won the medal offered the
best grain judge in the boys and
girls clubs of the state; E. ]. Bell
of Wibaux won the contest among
the students at Montana State coll
Johannes Peterson of Crane
won the medal offered to students
in the State college short courses.
The Montana Seed Growers as
ISOLATION is growing, and growing
fast. 1t is keeping pace with the
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1924-02-14
Organized in 1912

1t may be said that good seec
growers have been in Montana ever
since agriculture first started here
and that certain individuals have
always been improving and select
ing seed. But it was in 1912 that
the seed growers association was
started. 1t was not an suspicious
start, for the membership rolls for
that year were short. Alfred At
kinson, since elected president of
the State college at Bozeman, was
the first secretary, and other Off
GERS were Fred Sumner of Clyde
Park, Pat Carney of Waterloo, I.
d. O'Donnell of Billings and Jim
Griffin of Chinook. In 1928 the
association had 248 members in
Montana actually growing pure
seed, and in that year ISL fields
of high quality grain were inspect
ed. (The growth may be made a
contrast from the fact that the in
spection started in 1919 with a to-
tai of three fields inspected.)
1t is a point worth mentioning
that of the original group Of Off
GERS, F. c. Sumner was president
of the association the past year,
! Jim Griffin was vice president, and
Pat Carney was on the board of
directors. It is to the honor of
these men that they have worked
consistently and enthusiastically
for the last II years to build up
the quality of Montana grain.
For the last few years, when
Montana's grain winnings at Chi
cago have drawn international at
tention to the state, the secretary
and moving spirit of the associa-
ton has been Arthur J. Ogaard. In
his more dignified moments, Mr.
.Ogaard is rated as an extension
specialist in agronomy from the
State college, but most of the time
he is a plain "pure-seed bug" with
enough energy and native ingen-
uity to keep any organization hum
ming with activity. With the fine
cooperation of the present Off
GERS of the association, Mr.. Ogaard
has been able to do a job of secre-
taryship that has increased the
membership of the association, in
creased the number of fields in
spected for pure seed, and improv-
ed the quality and quantity of Mon
tana grains shown in world COM
petition. Officials of the Seed
Growers association claim that Mr..
Ogaard is largely responsible for
