SEED CRESTED WHEAT
GRASS THIS FALL

BOZEMAN.-Cres Wheatgrass
should be seeded this fall any time
from September Is to freezing, to
assure better stand, better con-
troll of soil blowing and avoidance of
insect damage, according to Ralph
d. Mercer, extension agronomist at
Montana State college.
Fall seeding has fulfilled each of
these requirements for producers re-
peatedly during the drouth years
and in tests conducted by the Mon
tana Agricultural Experiment sta
ton. In fact, Mercer says, the in
crease in acreage of this crop is
practically all the result of fall
seeding.
BY seeding in the fall, particularly
the last few years, the grass has its
best chance of having enough mois-
ture to terminate. If there is
enough moisture it will grow this
fall, If there isn't it will be in the
ground to start in the spring, when
the first moisture arrives. Growth
Of the grass, even before the snow
is off. proves its ability to germi-
nate with the first moisture supply.
Fall seeding, which gives the grass
the best chance of good start
avoids cricket and grasshopper dam
age 1t gets good growth before
insects start working. Even though
eaten to the ground at that stage,
there will be no damage to the
stand This early growth also pre-
vents soil blowing damage.
Seedbeds should be firm and the
grass planted in stubble or weeds in
preference to summer fallow. The
grass should never be planted deep
er than one-half inch.
In urging fall planting of this
crop, Mercer says the establishment
of crested wheatgrass is important
because feed and pasture always are
at a premium in Montana. It is
particularly important now because
livestock numbers are increasing.

Blister Rust Makes Serious Inroods
Into Northern Idaho White Pine

high, are already dead, and rs per
cent of the remainder SO badly in
fected with trunk cankers that they
will be gone in two years. Large
areas here are so completely in
fected that control measures are
now too late.
There is no part of the white pine
belt in Idaho and northeastern
Washington which is not in inn
mediate danger.
In 1884 comprehensive plan of
blister rust control for the Inland
Empire was prepared by the bu-
reau of entomology and plant quar-
antine, with the advice and agree
ment of the forest service Up to
/ 1884, 1.076.000 acres out of the total
valuable white pine area of 2,7l0.000
acres had been covered by the first
working The plan called for eradi-
cation of current bushes on 726. 900
acres in 1885, 10000 acres in 1886.
and 100000 acres in 1887. Actually
/ but 262.000 acres were worked in
1895, $4,000 in 1886, and probably
i less than 100000 acres will be COW
i cred in 1887. Due to lack of ade-
quate appropriations for the work
the plan has not been carried out
| job with relief labor, but, owing to
many difficulties and limitations
connected with using this type of
labor, the job has proceeded much
more slowly than the plan requires.
1t is now the considered opinion of
the men best qualified to judge, that
unless appropriations can be OBJ
tanned sufficient to complete the
/ first working of the remaining white
pine area within two years. there
will be irretrievable losses of vast
areas of white pine before it can be
protected by removing the currant
/ bushes which spread the disease.
Not less than two million dollars
a year for the next two years will
/ be adequate to meet the emergency
situation The work cannot be post
poned or the pine will be lost
Matter of Vital Concern
1t is a matter of the most vital
concern to all residents of the In
land Empire to preserve the present
merchantable white pine and the
growing crops OF young pine which
will supply the lumber cut of the
future. The whole lumber industry
of north Idaho is centered on white
pine, and would largely disappear
without that species. The 1886 cut
of white pine in Idaho was Az mil
lion feet, which is approximately rs
per cent of the total cut Since each
million feet of lumber cut repre-
sents direct employment for ap-
proximately lI.8 persons, the white
pine industry supports around $500
men with their families. The con-
tinuing life of this industry affects
every man, woman and child in
north Idaho. The people of Idaho
should realize the threat which is
hanging over their most important
industry
Editors Note-Unless this disease
is controlled, it will be only a short
time until it will enter and destroy
the white pine of western Montana.l

HIGHEST EGG AVERAGE.

BOHEMIAN. The highest egg av-
.erage for June among poultry dem
onstration flocks of 100 or more
hens was reached by the flock
owned by r. Kjeldson of Hudson.
His hens averaged nearly Il eggs
each for the month, according to
the monthly report prepared by
Miss H. E. Cushman, extension poul-
try specialist at Montana State
college.
Leadership among flocks with less
than 100 hens, went to Henry Weier-
miller, Big Fork. His average was
nearly % eggs per hen.
Among the large flocks, two av-
eraged more than 20 eggs per hen
for the month, four bettered 10
and IL flocks averaged Is or more.
The average price received per
dozen eggs was % cents, which left
a profit margin of 10 cents per dozen
over feed costs.
Three flocks among those with
less than 100 hens averaged more
than 20 eggs and all but one beat is.
The average price received per
dozen eggs by this group was %
cents. The feed cost per dozen
was IL cents.
Compared with averages the last
three years there will be about three
flocks which will average 200 or
more eggs per hen for the year
