DEMONSTRATION OF
FARM MACHINERY, WE'D

Latest machinery suitable fol
large scale farming will be dem.
onstrated at the Fairway Farm
north of Brockton Wednesday,
July 18th under the supervision of

demonstration. The demonstra-
ton will start at 2 p. m. and is
open to the public.
The Fairway farm is use as a
testing station for large scale
farming by the Montana State
college, and has tested out many
models and types during the
spring months. Much of this ma
chinery will be demonstrated
July 18th and all will be available
for inspection.
The demonstration will include
seven or eight makes of tractors,
three and five row listers, rotary
plows, a four row corn planter,
cultivators, windrow and pickup
attachments for combines, stub
BILE burners and various other
of machinery suitable for
farming on a large scale. Dual
purpose grain bins, a Hart head
er barge, and a good herd of Dur
DC Jersey hogs are added attrac-
ions.
The Fairway farm where the
demonstration will be held is CEN
rally located in Roosevelt county,
being about equally distant from
and Brockton. Visitors
coming over the Roosevelt High
way are advised to follow the
road northwest from
3rockton for about u miles. This
will lead to the west border of the
Fairway holdings. Farmers from
north can follow the same
highway from the Biem commun-
ty. East county farmers can

land can be purchased on easy
terms at from $40 to SIS an acre,
according to the distance from
market and the nature of the soil.
No better bargains in productive
soil in proven, general farming
country, can be found.
The federal highway, known as
the Roosevelt International high
way extends entirely through the
county, graded and all but small
portions of it ~gravelled. A sys-
tenn of lateral highways extending
through the farming setions is be-
ing developed as rapidly as funds

COMBINE BULLETIN
NOW OFF The PRESS

"Shall I Buy a Combine" the
question which is bothering many
farmers of the northwest, is dis
cussed in Farmers Bulletin No.
1866 recently issued by the Unit
ed States Department Of Agricul-
ture.
The problem of deciding wheth-
er to purchase a combine or to
continue harvesting by the older
methods is one which hinges on
individual needs and on crop con-
ditions. Without a good sized
acreage of small grain, combines
are considered too expensive.
Weather conditions, power avail
able and need for straw for feed
are also factors to be considered
The bulletin by L. A. Reynold-
son is a study of combine opera
ton in all parts of the west and
middle west and covers the har-
vesting of many crops. Mr.. Rey-
noldson does not attempt to ans
wer every question with a Yes

lent data on necessary acreage,
crop conditions, extra equipment
needed, and other problems Of
combine operation.

S~EAS0NABLE RAINS
ARE BOOMING CROPS

After dry weather in May and
the early part of June, timely
rains have soaked every part OF
this section of the state and are
already sufficient to insure yields
from ten to % and even 80 bush
els per acre of wheat. With the
largest acreage ever planted, the
1928 wheat crop promises to from
80 to 100 percent of the great 1927
crop.
At Ed Schillinger's farm near
Vida a government gauge record
ed AZ inches of rain during June
and Mr.. Schillinger reports wheat
in ideal condition in his vicinity.
The GOODNESS of the season has
had much to do with causing
wheat to develop a good root sys-
TEN and form vigorous stools.
The rains are now giving it the
height and heads.
The weather has not been so
cool as to retard the growth of
corn, so it has made growth,
many fields standing a foot high
at this date.
Grass and alfalfa and other hay
crops are making splendid growth.
The rains are continuing and
about one and a half inches of wa
er has fallen the first six days of
July. The Havre government
yeather station recorded 4.32 inch
S of rain in June.
