Land Undervalued

Land Undervalued
Land in Montana is much under
valued and within the next five years
thru proper tillage and summerfallow
methods the real value will be placed
and it should be at least from $40 to.
$40 an acre higher"
Senator Schnitzler returned a counle
or weeks ago from the east where he
attended the Inauguration ceremonies
OF President Hoover on March 4th
and also took occasion to visit New
York and call upon several of those
interested in the exporting of wheat,
At Washington Sen. Schnitzler busted
himself with the promotion of the
prpositiOn to put former governor Joe
Dixon into the department of the in
terror and DiXon's appointment as
first assistant secretary of the inter
Tor was due in no small part to the
activities of the Roosevelt county
farmer. Questioned as to the pros
poets for the Montana farmer this
/ year by a representative of the Pro-
ducers News, Mr.. Schnitzler, stated
very pointedly:
g For the careful operator on Mon
tana sland there is only prosperity
ahead" He remarked further that
Land In Montana is very much un-
dervalued and that within the next
five years thru proper tillage and
summer fallOw methods the real
! value will be placed and it should
be at least from $40 to $40 an acre
higher. 1t is true that we are in a
transition period in the methods of
farming in this section and that con-
siderable concern is felt by the ul-
tra-conservatists just now on ac-
count of the shift to power farming
the incoming trainloads of tractors,
combines and tank loads of gasoline.
} It is feared that the farmers are
taking on a load which will eventu-
ally carry them into bankruptcy.
This may be true for the man who
will not use the tractor intelligent
ly. When a farmer buys a tractor
he should plan his work so that he
can use it most of the summer or in
other words, if you do not intend to
summer fallow then do not buy a
tractor. Summer fallowing and pow
er farming go hand in hand. You
must do your summerfallowing
right after seeding; first. discing
the ground to kill off the first
sprouting of weeds, then follow up
with the plow and then keep on
tilling all summer. 1t is not alone
to exterminate weeds that you sum-
mer-fallow, but mostly to store up
moisture; if you summer-fallOw on
the early moisture to have your
land ready to store up the moisture
! that comes in June. If you permit
weeds to grow before blowing you
have lost that much and if you wait
until June to plow then you are
losing more moisture which should
, be in the soil for the next years
needs. A tractor will work sixteen
hours when the sun is hot and the
' flies are bad and Whine the weeds
grow fast; horses cannot do this;
r hence if the tractor will increase

es made by the president at a Whites
House breakfast to committee mem
bers today delayed completion and
announcement of the bills provisions
scheduled for today, until Sunday or
early Monday. Hoover approved most
of the features of the bill as it now
stands, Haugen said.
Export Bonus Denied
The committee today voted down,
II to a, proposal to include the de-
benture plan, or export bonus system
in the measure and on test vote the
old equalization fee proposal was de-
feated II to 3.
Reading of the bill for amendments
and minor revisions virtually has been
completed. Haugen said II pages of
the 15-page bill have been approved
and the remainder of the draft was
not relatively important.
1--WE meet at 9:30 a. m. tomorrow
and hope to have the bill completed
before O'clock" Haugen said. cit
will be introduced Monday as soon as
the house is officially organized for
business"
1t was authoritatively stated that
the bill will set up a federal farm
board of seven members, including
the secretary of agriculture. The board
will be given wide power to administer
$5O0OO0,000 revolving fund to op-
crate stabilization corporations and
aid farmers in marketing their crops.
Hoover to Choose Board
President Hoover will be authorized
to appoint the board members, who
will be confirmed by the senate.
Authority to loan cooperative or
CARNATIONS money in advance of their
crop harvest probably will be given
the board by the legislation. Stabili-
zatiOn corporations also will be able
to borrow funds direct from the
board.
A new insurance provision empow-
erlng the board to sell insurance to
co-Operatives against loss of their
crops from the revolving fund is in
cluded in the bill.
Other features of the long awaited
measure include power for the board
to designate commodities to come un-
d,er the provisions of the farm relief
Olll, authority to make the boards
ruling final in all matters under its
consideration and authority to estab-
hSh councils to advise the board on
various commodities.
Protects Consumers
The committee took steps to pro-
tect the American consumers, how
ever by inserting a clause in the bill
prohibiting stabilization corporations
TO withhold commodities from the
market if prices have become so high
The public is unduly burdened.
Committee members said an appro-
prlation of about $1,OOO,OOO would be
made available by the special session
nor starting the work of the board anC
mat the remainder would be made
available as soon as needed.

With the first game of the newly formed Putnam hockey league sche- duled fer Sunday. December sth, m which Les Canadiens" meet the "Shippee Hill Whirlwinds' the fans vii get an idea of the comparative strength of the teams which formed the league.
 Although Les Canadiens" have been considerably weakened by loss of one of their stars. through a rul. ing of the board of directors and find themselves with their backs to the wall they feel confident that they are not destined to be tail-enders.
 Tn their first game the Les Cana diens" will present an aggregation of veterans against a cluster of youth who. have a reputation and clean playing.
 The Flying Frenchmen" may have to expand the breath of their wings on their feet and harden their wooden legs to pull out win. but revelations are in order. in these days of upsets. What, will the old timers dog

 In fact. there is more than enough strength, experience and speed to place Pomfret at the top before the end. Fans from the neighboring town expect it at least.
