CHARLESTON'S CHARM

Charleston, S. c., retains it's 18th
Century architecture, so full Of
warmth, charm and beauty. It
might not have been so well pre-
serXed except for funds raised by
War Bonds that enabled our fighting
forces to erect and hold an impene-
trable barrier against attack from
overseas. War Bonds bought now
will keep 1t unmarried. The quaint
house that Col. Charles Brewton
gave his daughter in 1888 embodies
that charm. The delicate iron bal
cony and carriage entrance leading
directly to the street are character
istic touches prevalent in Southern
homes in the formative years pre-
ceding the Revolutionary War.

Approximately $4,000 yards Of
dirt were moved on a field of
ISL acres. Mr.. Macleod said
he estimated that the work had
increased the value of his farm
at least $1,000. He will be able
to irrigate the field in about a
fourth the time and more land
will be under production be-
cause fewer bitches will be
needed for irrigation.
Yields will be considerably
increased, Mr.. Macleod stated,
though no accurate estimate
can be made until crops are
harvested. He pointed out that
the more uniform application
of water will be a large factor
in increasing yields.
The cost of the work will be
more than repaid in a few
years by the increased product
ivity of the land, he added.
Farmers in the area have
been inspecting the work.

Schaak. The Soil Conservation

HOT WEATHER
SPEEDS HARVEST

The dry, hot weather of the
past week forced all vegetative
growth to speed up the ripen-
ing of winter wheat to a point
where harvest will probably
get well started in another
few days.
The first combining of wheat
in Big Horn county was report
ed at the Sam Ragland farm
northeast of Hardin, where cut
ting was started Wednesday. It
was stated that the yield was
more than 40 bushels per acre,
and weighed So pounds per
buShel.
Nearly adequate showers fell
in the western counties of the
north-central region, but the
rest of this area and some To-
calities in the southeast re-
manned critically dry. More rain
is generally needed over the
state east of the divide.
Spring grain crops and flax
suffered light to heavy dam
age from the hot drying winds
and hot weather also caused
range grass to begin to cure in
many counties. In southeastern
Montana an earlier marketing
of cattle is expected on this &C
count. Such showers as did oc-
cur last week were accompan-
led in many cases by damaging
hail which caused several of
the counties to report moderate
to large crop losses.
The hot weather made heavy
demands upon water supplies
in irrigated areas, but only in
few localities we're supplies
short and irrigated crops as a
whole made excellent growth.
The week was favorable for
haying and found most of the
first crop of alfalfa in the
stack.
Midsummer farming opera
tions reported included picking
the sweet cherry crop in west
ern Montana, harvesting the
canning pea crop in the Gal
latin valley and completing
the hoeing of sugar beetS and
wedding of beans.
Although grasshoppers were
reported over a wide area ex-
tending from extreme north
western Montana to the Dakota
line, damage to date has been
light, although in some areas
large amounts of bait have
been needed to keep the pests
in check.
While livestock continue in
good condition the continued
hot dry weather on range feed
is causing ranges to dry out
and bringing about some short
age of stock water. Only in
Blaine county so far have these
conditions forced any move
ment of livestock. Ranges and
water holes would be helped by
general rains,
