Quite naturally, Rosy (male

more about the raising of sugar

nothing, and according to his

SAYS SHOULD USE ONLY
STANDARD SEED WHEAT

When Montana farmers take
to the fields to put in their
spring wheat crop they are
urged by Ralph D. Mercer, ex-
tension agronomist at Montana
State college, to use only seed
of standard varieties whose ad-
aptability to Montana condi-
lions has been proven.
As seeding time approaches
growers will read and hear
about many new varieties of
spring wheats, Mercer said.
While many of these have been
successful in the localities for
which they were developed, they
have not yet been proven SUI
periOr to recommended varieties
now on the standard list of the
Montana Seed Growers associa-
ton. Farmers should avoid new
varieties until they have been
thoroughly tested under Mon
tana conditions, he said.
Among the spring wheats
which are not recommended for
Montana are: Renown, Canus,
Apex and Coronation. All of
these are Canadian varieties and
the first three have not proven
as good as Montana standard
varieties. The fourth - Corona
tion-haS not been tested for
yield in Montana.
Then there are three varieties
developed at the North Dakota
Agricultural Experiment station.
These are Rival, Vesta and Mer-
curry. Sufficient tests have not
been made in Montana to de-
termine the adaptability of
these varieties. Another North
Dakota variety, Premier, has
not been tested for yield in
Montana.
Only limited tests have been
made in Montana of two varie-
ties developed by the depart
ment of agriculture in coopera-
ton with the Montana agricul-
tural experiment station and ex-
pertinent stations in North and
South Dakota and Minnesota.
These varieties are Pilot and
Merit.
Nordhaugen's New is a variety
which will require futher test
ing before any conclusions can
be drawn.

WPA SAWMILL MAKES
LUMBER FOR G

A unique WPA project, the
saAmill located near Ekalaka in
Carter county, during the past
year has produced almost all
of the lumber needed in WPA's
extensive water conservation
program, officials reveal.
Since beginning operation less
than a year ago, 809, 900 feet of
lumber have been logged and
100000 feet sawed. The lumber
has been used on scores or pro-
jectS throughout Eastern Mon
tana in the construction of
spillwayS, headgateS and other
facilities for water conservation
DAMS, it is revealed.
Powered by a steam engine,
the sawmlll uses a 48-inch saw,
a 3-saw edging machine, a pla-
ner and a lath machine. Using
80 unskilled laborers to begin,
WPA has trained the men so
that production is now said to
be comparable to privately op-
Grated mills of this size.
Timber being used is mostly
over = mature pOnderoSa pine
from the Custer National For
est. Forest service officials cred
it the project as having been
highly beneficial through the
clearing off of aged timber
stands in certain forest areas.
Slab wood from the sawmill
fires the steam engine and a
large surplus is regularly hauled
away for the use of Carter
county relief families who can
not procre wood on their lin
tied resources, officials said.

'racketeering" on the bench.
Aside from Manton, what federal
judge is being even shot at?
| don't know OF any one at pres
ent
To be sure, the District of Column
bia court has a very dirty case on
its hands. Three brothers, of the
name Of Warning, are accused of run
ming a numbers. racket" They can
not be convicted of it; so, in order
to convict them of something, they
are being prosecuted as income tax
evaders
1t is like Al Capone's case. AL
could not be convicted as a murderer
SO he was convicted as an income
tax evader.
The Warnings are not so easy to
convict. They got a hung jury. Re-
trial, their second trial blows up,
because of u. S. deputy marShals' &C
tivities to fix the new jury in the de-
fense's behalf. 1t is not the fault of
the judge. It is the fault of his I'M
derlings. The argument is that these
underlings ought to be put on a civil
service basis, to keep them honest.
They plead guilty.
Out of Politics.
Recently the president had occa-
sion to appoint a..local federal Judge
in Virginia. Senators Glass and Byrd,
the two Virginia solons, made rec
concentrations. Senator Byrd is a
candidate for senatorial reelection in
1910. Acceptance of his recommen-
datlon would have been helpful to
him. But Governor Price of Virginia
made an alternative suggestion.
Price senatorially is trying to lick
Byrd next year.
Byrd is an anti-New Dealer, Price
is pro-
Yet the dope is that President
Roosevelt, in naming Prices candi-
date, was endeavoring to keep poll
tics out of judicial appointments.

Byrd doesn't think SO.
