records 1.-TWO milkings a day. MINI
COWS exceeded the 4O0-nound mark in

koningen, a 5-year-old. headed the lisr
with a yield of 22.206 pounds of milk
and 1882 pounds of bHtterfat. In the
ADVICE TretSven received it was noted
that the high average for the herd was

ularly enrolled In the college of agri-
culture.
Inc herd test was started four years
ago BY the Holstein association and is
proving quite popular as it affords an
economical NEAR of obtaining records
ON all the cows in a herd. These re
CORDS are preserved and published in a
DOCK each year and serve as an in
valuable aid In proving herd sires and
building a sound breeding program.

moving them from the herd books and

his purebred COWS brought $94O. his
grade COWS averaged practically $50
each, one pITe-bred COW brought $40
and one of the grade cows sold for so8.
The reason he received such high

Observation-Disclosures mmnmmMmMumMnMNv
: TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK :
Strip Farming is
Becoming Poplar

The proof of the pudding is In the
eating. For that reason the strip
farming method of preventing soil
blowing Is definitely accepted as the
best immediate cure yet encountered
and farmers in the Square Butte area
of Chouteau county are so sold on it,
effectiveness that about 80 percent
of the farms there are now practic-
ing 1t annually, declares Sam Sloan.
extension agronomist at Montana
State college.
In discussing some of the advantages
OF strip farming, Sloan uses the pract-
ical information obtained from H. D
Myrick, who first started strip farming
in the Square Butte area.
AS explained by Sloan. the strips
there are laid out in a north and south
direction and range in width from 20
to 90 rods. When handled in strips.
alternate strips are summerfalIoUed
each year. 1t has proved absolutely
necessary to sulnmerfalloW each year,
$ this alternate crop and summerfal-
low strip farming causes no inconven-
fence III this respect. The strips run
north and south, because of the pre-
valling winds. The 20-rod strips do not
prevent the soil from blowing but it
does prevent any loss. When the soil
does blow, only the east half of the
summerfalloW strip is affected. This
soil merely blows over into the west
half OF the strip in crop. Should ridges
build up, over a period of years, it is
only necessary to move the strips over
about 10 rods.
Under the strip system of farming.
the combine can be used more adj
v-antageously. 1t appears that entire
strips will ripen together. For that rea-
son 1t IS possible to get started at har-
yes a little earlier by picking out the
ripest strips. This is quite an advantage
for the crop can be harvested a few
days earlier, and in the case of hail.
even q day counts.
In the Square Butte area, 1t is con-
sidered d good policy to pillow, gold dig
or otherwise destroy the row of weeds
that grows along the west edge OF the
stubble strips after harvest, because the
soil blows there and the weed seeds
with It, It is not necessary to destroy a
line of weeds along the east edge of the
stubble strips on that account. The
strips are a nice width for clean burn
when burning is necessary.
There are disadvantages to the strip
farming method. 1t is slightly more
expensive. A fraction of the width
Of the various implements used is lost
finishing UP the strips. A small
OF grain is knocked down when
moving the implements from one strip
% another. The destruction of weeds
along the west edge of the cropped
strips also costs a little more. Then, in
5he case Of grasshopper invasions, there
are more edges to poison.

NEW YORK, June 3 GN.SO.
Reports of support bids placed in
the bond market gave the New

tone today and advances ranging
from fractions to about 2 points
in the railroad group were evi-
denced.
Good buying was noted in such
issues as Nickle Plate IS of 1882,
which jumped / point to 80 on
top of a 4point rise yesterday.
This issue is due to mature on
october /. Great Northern gained

United States Government
loans were active and mixed with
the Liberty 312s up 2-32 at 100 II,
the First 4Hs off 1872 at 101 ID,
the Fourth 4Hs unchanged at
1O2 II. The Treasury issues were
in fair demand and showed sub
Stantial gains.
Foreign government loans were
quiet and steady, with the Aus

the German 51as.
