Washington, July tP-HiGh tribute to the courage of navy divers and others of the salvage crew which took the wreckage submarine S-51 safely to drydocl at the New York navy yard was expressed in messages exchanged by Rear Ad- miral Plunkett commanding the New York naval district.
 The docking of the craft com pleted a salvage operation ref1eCting credit on all the officers and men so long engaged in the task, the ad- miral wired to the secretary.
 "The work of the divers is noth- ing short Of heroic and their con- duct will be made the subject Of a separate report" he added.
 In reply, Mir. Wilbur expressed his commendation "of the most ex- cellent work on the part Of the personnel engaged In the task" He added:
 This work has been carried ont with great skill and all possible dis patch notwithstanding it's arduous and dangerous character. The great difficulties overcome and perils encountered in raising the ship from a depth of 132 feet in the open sea and often under severe weather con- ditions reflect credit on the judgment, initiative and stamina Of the officers and men. The unduuht- ed persistence and unparalleled en- durance or the divers merit very great praise"
 May Get Promotions
 The secretary explained that spc- cial letters Of commendation woul3 he sent 10 the men recommended by Admiral Pluukett when the detailed report Is received. Consideration will be given, he added. to the Ques- ton Of possible promotion or other substantial recognition Of particular ly meritorious work.

A RE the harvester that has firmly
"A held it's place in American ag-
4 n riculture since the cradle was
laid aside, the header which has so
recently found a place on Montana
farms, and the stationary thresher
which has played such an important
part on every grain farm, doomed
to be martyrs to the cause of pro-
gress? It is too early to give an
affirmative answer to this question
but a very rapid and significant
trend noticeable in Montana and
some of the other grain producing
states of the Great Plains indicates
that the days of the old type harvest
ing and threshing implements are
numbered, in many of the wheat
growing sections in this area.
In the everlasting search for new
er, better more efficient and more
economical means for doing the ne
cessary work of farming there has
come in a small type of combine
harvester which cuts the grain,
threshes it, deposits the grain in a
wagon box and spreads the finely
cut straw evenly over the field. The
machine cuts swath from 10 to 16
feet wide. In most cases only three
men are required for the entire op-
Grafton; one to drive the tractor
which hauls the combine, another
to look after the cutting and thresh-
ing and the third to drive the wagon
which receives the grain.

PROTEIN IS
UP TOSTANDARD

(FrOm the Montana State COlIege)
DROTEIN tests made on i22 sam
pies of hard red spring wheat
and 96 samples of hard red win
ter wheat at the Montana Grain In
spect1on Laboratory at BOzeman do
not bear up the reports that Montana
Grain is generally lower in quality
than last year, according to w. o.
Whitcomb, superintendent of the Ia
boratory. Hard red winter wheat
tests have averaged a little lower
than last year. but spRing wheat
is averaging a little higher in pro-
tein content and since there is seven
times as much spring wheat as win
ter wheat, the general average pro-
teln content should be higher than
last year.
In the protein tests made at the
Bozeman laboratory up to August 21
spring wheat averaged 1903 per
cent protein. Last year the aver
age for the state on spring wheat
was 1888 per cent. On the other
hand the SO samples Of winter wheat
tested up to August 21 averaged
1888 per cent protein, while last
year the winter wheat average was
1888 per cent.
So far this year the highest sample
of spring wheat tested 1905 per
cent protein and the lowest, 9.e6 per
cent. More than 25 per cent of the
samples tested have contained more
than 15 per cent protein. The high
est winter wheat sample of this sea
sons crop tested 1922 per cent
protein and the lowest. 8.3 per cent.
Last year the highest sample of
spring wheat tested 1925 per cent
and the lowest 9.26 per cent. In
winter wheat last year the highest
sample tested 1875 per cent and
the lowest 8.86 per cent.
Mr.. Whitcomb explains that the
averages quoted are on a limited
number of samples of early season
grain but that they have come from
all Of the important grain growing
areas in the state and, therefore,
should quite accurately indicate the
quality of the present seasons crop
Mr.. Whitcomb cautions farmers
against using the averages given to
indicate the protein content of any
given field of grain. The high and
low figures given indicate the great
variation in protein content of diff
ferent lots. of grain. The only safe
plan, according to the superintendent
is for each farmer to have his grain
tested.

MILK RIVER HAS
GOOD BEET CROP
IRRIGATION COUNSELLOR COM.
PLETES HIS TRIP OVER
NORTHEAST
e. e. ROddis Assists Farmers in GIas-
cow Area to Form Reclamation
District; Says Certified Seed PO-
tatOes is Becoming Profitable Crop

Il. E. ROddis, district recIama-
ton service counsellor, Fefurned to
Billings the other day after spend
ing ten days on the Sun River and
Milk river projects. The sugar beet
crop on the Milk river project
shows prospects of the best yield
in many years, Counsellor ROddis
reports, Milk river has not been
furnishing enough water for the
project this summer, but through
a treaty between United States and
Canada, water from st. Mary's lake
in Canada has been diverted to
the project.
Plan New District
While on the Milk river project,
Mr.. Roddis aided the farmers in the
filing of a petition for the forma-
ton OF an irrigation district at GIas-
cow. The new district would COM
prise $4,000 acres of land. Hearing
on the petition will be held IN the
district court at Glasgow, September
25. The land in the proposed dis
trict is now under irrigation, but
the users rent the water from the
government. Formation of the new
district would allow the users to
take over the management of the
project.
The government has adopted a
policy of turning over the manage
ment of reclamation projects to set
tiers as soon as the projects are well
enough established to make such a
move feasible, Mr.. Roddis states.
This releases government appropria-
tions for additional projects. A sim
liar move is now under considera-
ton to turn the Shoshone project
over to the settlers of the region.
Raise Seed Potatoes
i Milk river farmers are attracting
statewide attention, according to Mr.
lRoddis by their success in the rails
ing and marketing of certified seed
potatoes. They have contracted FOL
the sale of 35 carloads of these pOta
toes to farmers Of Louisiana. The
potato yield on the Milk river pro
ject is estimated at from 125 to Isl
bushels to the acre and the farmer
are guaranteed 50 per 200 pound
for the crop. A similar price guar
antee is made for all of the certified
seed potatoes produced on the projec
next year. The seed is certified b,
representatives of the Montana Stat
College at Bozeman and is carefulI
inspected by Representatives OF tn
Louisiana buyers.
