Col. 0ehmann Says Well
Built Homes Withstood
Fury of Winds.

An examina ton of structures in the
Northeast and Southeast sections Of
Washington swept by last weeks tor
nado has revealed no case wherein
damages were due to faulty construc-
ton. Col. John w. Oehmann, District
building inspector. reported today.

mann. AL the structures damaged IN
the storm area stood up surprisingly

As result of close inspection, he
expressed the opinion that there was
no valid reason to recommend
STRENGTHENING of any code in the Dis
trict building regulations.
Damage Placed at 5000.
With the exception of one or two
placesy the report showed that the
damage to structures does not exceed
$500 in average cases. A revised esti-
mate places the total damage at about
$95, 900, which includes approximately
$4,000 in the southeastern section and
500, 900 in the Northeast.
One row of ancient frame houses,
1923 to 1897 Benning road northeast,
was ordered condemned Col. Oehmann
said, solely as a safety measure. These
houses some of whose fronts were
partially swept away by the wind,
were fitting so badly that it was neces-
sary for the inspectors to order the
entire fronts torn down to keep the
structures from tOppling over.

w YHILE there is no record that
Nv P. T. Barnum ever was in the
w seed business, it appears that
there are many in this business whose
activities are based on the old Bar
mum theory that There's one born
every minute says A. ]. Ogaard,
agronomist for the Montana Exten-
sion Service. The existence Of these
opportunists who owe their success
largely to their ability to picture the
miraculous results to be obtained
from a recently discovered strain or
variety, is particularly apparent in
the early spring. Advertisements by
the score tell of new wonder crops"
Glittering promises appear along
with an infinite variety of ~alluring
statements, framed solely for the
purpose of extracting the "small
sum" from the pockets of unwary
farmers.
"StOp, look and listen is the best advice
that can be given before buying wonder"
crops, Mr.. Ogaard advises. Those who
have such seed to sell usually have little
evidence to support their claims, or if
there is support for the generous claims
the facts apply to conditions far different
than those found in Montana.
On the other hand, according to the eX-
tension -agrOnomist, farmers Of Montana
do have a vast amOun of sound infOrma-
ton regarding crops that dependable seed
dealers and other reliable authorities
recommend for the state. The Montana
Experiment Station has conducted an inf
mite number of tests for the sole purpose
Of finding out which crops are the best
Since the start of crop Improvement and
crop Standardization work in the state by
the Montana Extension Service, many hun
dreds of farmers in all parts of the state
have lent their aid in conducting farm
tests with different crops, also for the pur.
pose of finding out those that are best
adapted. On the evidence thus obtained
certain strains and varieties have beer
recommended for Montana conditions
Others are added to the recommended lis
when they have cOnclusively proved theil
superiority, not before.
There is no letting up in the effort Of Mon
tana's institutions and cooperating farm
ers to find higher yielding and bette,
crops, says Mr.. Ogaard. The process o
eliminating the unfit from the ht and o
crossing and breeding to establish desir
able characteristics in new crops goes oil
. year after year. Much Of the work dom
along this line is technical and exact ant
requires trained men. Once a strain give
experimental evidence Of superiority, tn
