A vote was made possible when
Chairman Borah of the foreign rela-

Audience.
GUESTS HONORED BY
BANQUET AT VESTS

Despite the bitter weather of last
Saturday, the SLOW Cost Wheat Spe-
cial Train" meeting was greeted by a
well-packed hall at the Orpheum The
ater, composed of interested farmers
and business men.
The special train, which is touring
eastern Montana under the direction
of the Montana State College Exten-
sion service in cooperation with the
Great Northern Railway, arrived from
Flaxville Friday evening, remaining
in Plentywood until Monday morning
when it departed for Medicine Lake.
The train consists of IA gondola cars
of machinery exhibits, one automobile
car containing a seed cleaning exhibit,
one passenger coach containing a gen
eral educational exhibit and two buff
fet cars for the use of the train staff.
The train had its own engine and eat
ing and sleeping facilities, provided by
the Great Northern.
"Wheat growing has undergone
phenomenal changes during the past
five years." declared M. L. Wilson
head of the department of agricul-
tural economics of the State College
Extension Service, at the Afternoon
meeting held in the Orpheun
theatre. "Wheat production in Mon
tana has been changed by the intro
duction of modem l,jwer farming
equipment from the old diversified
farm basis to the basis of a business
operating farm. Modern machiner!
has put wheat production on virtual!
the same basis as modern manu-
featuring plant"
Mr.. Wilson explained that al
studies indicate that the wheat pro
ducer must expect and prepare fo
poor crop years and bad crop year
and that the past five years durin,
which time the greatest development
of power farming has taken plac
were better crop years than normal
Consequently, the wheat producer
by power farming methods must TAX
these factors into consideration an
prepare for them by setting asid
cash reserves during the good year
to tide him over the lean years.
