GRADE HOLSTEIN
in FIRST PLACE
(From Montana state College,

CAREFUL culling, the use of high pro-
ducing breeding stock, and proper
" methods of feeding and management
are proving their value in the dairy herd
improvement associations OF Montana,
says j. o.. Tretsven. dairy specialist for
the Montana extension service. He points
out that the April production reports for
the testing organizations show that the
1882 COWS under test during the month
averaged 22.35 pounds Of butterfat, or
approximately 85 per cent more han the
average for all COWS in the state. If all
cows in Montana produced at the same
rate as those in the associations the in
come from dairy products in Montana
would be at least SO. 900 900 a year great
er than at present, he states.
The Lewis and Clark association again
led the organizations of the state with
an average Of 24.58 pounds of butterfat
according to Mr.. Tretsven's monthly re-
port. The Fergus county association was
second with an average Of %. 60 pounds
and the Bitter Root association THIRD
with an average of 22.88 pounds. There
were 249 COWS, or Sc per cent of all those
uKder test, that produced 40 or more
pounds Of butterfat and at least one
COW in each association produced more
than 60 pounds of butterfat.
Inc mlxed nero or Bruce Wheeler OF
the Pondera association had the highest
production average for the month anc
was first among herds of less than IL
cows with an average of 42.3 pounds Of
: butterfat. Among herds Of is to "A COWS
the purebred and grade Jerseys of P. j
McHugh & Son Of the Lewis and CLARK
association were first with an average OF
345 pounds of butterfat. In the large
herd class of more han as COWS the s. j
Burgess herd Of grade Jerseys and Hol-
stems was first with an average of 31.1
pounds of butterfat.
Beauty" a grade Holstein owned BY
Jno. Kalberer Of the Bitter Root associa-
ton was high individual producer fol
the month with a record of 1926 pounds
Of butterfat.
The records Of the association herds
are made under ordinary farm conditions
and are not out of line with what may
be expected through the use OF proper
dairy production methods, says Mr.. Tret,
sven. Guided by the records Of the asso.
citation and the advice Of official testers
dairymen and farmers who belong t.
dairy herd improvement associations ar,
making constant improvement and in 81
doing are paving the way for q sounc
and profitable development Of dairyinl
IN the state, he says.

TIME premium list for the 2ichland
county fair is being prepared under
L the direction of H. F. DePue, county
agricultural agent. Total cash prizes at
the fair this year Will amount TO nearly
81, 900. The development OF community
fairs throughout Richland county which
serve as feeders for the county fair has
made the Richland county exposition n
of the leading exhibits of its kind in the
northwest.
Severe drouths OF 80 days or more in
duration occur even along the Atlantic
coast and in the Mississippi valley. in
about so per cent of the years accord
ing to records of the United States
weather bureau. In the Great Plains re-
gion such drouths occur in 70 to 90 per
cent of the years, says the report. Dry
spells of this kind do MOI always cause
crop damage.
In recent years wool growers of Aus
tralia and New Zealand got as much or
more for their wool clips than wool
growers of the United States. according
TO j. F. Walker of the U. S. department
Of agriculture who talked at meetings
of sheep men at Helena and Bozeman re-
Gently. He attributes the reason for this
to the fact that all wool is carefully

sales are distributed throughout the year
with but a limited amount sold each
month.
Fifty-seven kinds of birds feed on the
destructive. white grub or the adult

which is highly destructive to many
crops in this country.
approximately IS per cent of the cast
crops being grown in the Bear Springs
community of Fergus county this yea
were planted on standard summer tillec
land 1t is known as one of the mos
progressive and efficient wheat growing
communities in Montana.
The number of milk COWS in Ohio de
creased nearly 5000 from Jan. /. 1927 Il
Jan. l, 1923. However. during the sam,
period the number of heifers increased
5000 head so that q gradual recovery IL
numbers of lows is expected. During tn

head Of milk cows for the United State
as a whole.
Farmers of the irrigated lands o
northern and central Montana are plan
ming to take part in the tour of tn
Huntley irrigation project in July. TIL
tour is being arranged by the Montan
extension service for the purpose c
spreading information on approved GRO
/ production methods under irrigation. Wis
e its will be made to the Huntley expert

r successful farms on the project.
S More than 800 sacks Of poison hay

squirrels in Gallatin county this sprir

ISSUE BOOKLET ON
WALLER PROJECT
Grom Montana state College,

."nAYING Out on an Irrigated Farm on
the Valier-Conrad Project" is the
L title of a leaflet prepared by A. c..
Peterson. county agent of Pondera
ty and Blaine Ferguson. agriculturist for
the Waller Land and Water company. The
publication contains a number of differ
ent examples of different combinations of
crops and livestock for 30 and 160-acre
farms on the project with costs of opera
ton and income. The suggestions are
based upon the recommendations of the
agricultural economic conference held at
Great Falls last fall and upon farm sur
veys made by the department of agricul-
tural economics at Montana State coll
lege.
Undoubtedly the irrigated lana of the
Waller Conrad project can be made to
yield more dollars per acre than at pres
ent and IL is the purpose of the booklet
to suggest means whereby this may be
accomplished. says Mr.. Peterson. The
figures on costs and expenses are baseo
upon actual results obtained by farmer;
on the project and the prices used il
figuring returns from various crops anc
livestock products are conservative sC
that estimated Incomes are within rea'
sonable expectation.
The various combinations OF farming
enterprises considered in the booklet ar,
dairy cow-hog, sugar beet-dairy cow-hog
dairy cow-ewe and lamb, beef COW anC
baby beef. four-year-old eve and lamb
yearling eve II lamb. eve lamb to year
ling, eve and wether lamb. sugar beet
eve and lamb, sugar beet-dairy COW
sugar beet and lamb feeding, ant
straight wheat.
The highest incomes may be obtaineI
from the eve wether to lamb combina
ton, with yearling eve and lamb, ew
and wether lamb. n sugar beet-dair
COW and hog enterprises also rating high
Lowest incomes may be expected fror
straight wheat farming. Estimated ne
returns from the different combination
range from 1856 per year on a straigh
wheat farm of 100 acres to S295l pc
year for farms OF the anne size wher
eve lambs and yearlings are raised. A
80-acre sugar beet n dairy COW farr
should return a net of s 1889 per year.
The publication takes up in detail tn
financial structure of the different typs
