Even as you and L."
He loaded his folks and his camp

And sought out the mountains

He found him a place hat looked
right nice
Where the grass was green and the

Where the songbirds sang and the

Hummed a sleep tune in the sum-

He made his camp and he fished
the creek
While his Riddles played in the
shade
Cleaning their bodies. and rinsing
their souls
In a paradise God had made.
A restful stay for a couple of days
Then the open road and away.
Leaving behind in the timber's

The rubbish and trash his camI

from drought and rust more than
some of the earlier varieties. 1t
has been a low yielder in the
tests conducted by A. F. Toavs
of Wolf Point and Charles Smith
of Bainville though Canadian au-
thorities make extravagant claims
for this wheat.
Garnet
Garnet wheat has had extensive
publicity in the Canadian press
and by many is thought to be a
wonder wheat. Roosevelt county
tests have not proved that it is
phenomenal though it was the
high yielder in the test at Charles
Smiths. In many places Garnet
is not showing up as well as in
Canada SO it a still be consid-
cred a questionable variety.
University 222
Early, even ripening and good
in yielding ability describes the
University 222. Tests in this coun-
ty have been limited to the trial
at Charles Hawkins at Lanark. In
this test Marquis and University
222 We're equal in yield.
One years results cannot be
taken as being any more than an
indication of what a variety will
do and until these varieties are
tested out more thoroughly in ex-
pertinent plots, it is believed adj
visable to stick to Marquis of the
best breeding. Registered and
Marquis of the Cana
dian and Montana strains has
proved to be the best all-round
hard spring wheat for Roosevelt
county, and until some other wheat
surpasses it, will be recommended
by experiment station and extern
sion authorities.
Variety tests are being carried
every year to determine the
value of new varieties. Several
are being planned for the coming
season. Until a variety has proved
it's value, stick to the Marquis and
other standard wheats and let the
experiment stations do the expen-
sive work of proving the value of
lntried varieties.-A. w. Warden,
Go. Agent.
