Room 1877, Senate ONCE Building
The room is at the end Of a cor
ridor on the first floor. There was
a report that it was occupied by
someone who neither was a Sena-

Chairman LANCER Of the Senate

turned the room over to Robert r.
Church, an old friend from Chicago.

Senator LANCER told a reporter he
did not know what Mr.. Church s
business was.
Room Wasn't Being Used.
"He came to me and said he

him to use 1877, just the same as If
any Of my friends came in and

Mr.. Church, however, said it was

Just a Reminder

ARE YOU MAKING frequent and
regular checks of your stored grain
to make sure that it isn't becoming
bug feed?
One of the best ways of inspect
ing, according to o. B. Hitchcock, as
sistant state entomologist, is to use
a grain probe. Also look for moldy
wheat or of caked wheat. If
the grain has a high moisture on
tent or is heating, it is likely to be-
come infested by insects.
If insects are present, fumigate
with three parts of ethylene di-
chloride to one part of carbon terra
chloride applied at the rate of six
gallons to each 1000 bushels.

Shelterbelt Success
Came in Third Try

By A. B. NEYLAND, Chouteou County
NGY present shelterbelt is the
AVA third attempt at setting out
trees. The first was in 1914, when
land conditions, where trees were
concerned. I remember the first
trees I set out were not suitable for
this section of Montana. There
were naples, oak, some evergreens
and a variety of fruit trees. They
were set in newly broken sod, rather
late in the spring, with no subsoil
moisture. Their chance of survival
was nil.
Later on I tried again with sum-
mer-fallowed ground and a better
variety of trees. They started and
grew fairly well for a time, but the
dust storms, dry weather and in
sects of the 1920s finished them.
Ash Do Well
A part of my present shelterbelt
was set out in 1881. 1t consists of
c~araganas, green ash, and a few Ca
madam poplars. The ash and cara
ganas have done very well. The
ash is a slow growing tree but seems
to have what it takes to stand Mon
tana climate. Some of them are 16
to IS feet tall and 5 to 6 inches
through the trunk. The poplar is a
fast growing tree but has a tendency,
after reaching a certain size, to die
back and make a new start from
the roots.
None of the ash or caraganas has
shown any tendency to die out, al
though they are too close in the
rows-6 feet apart and the rows IL
feet wide. This is too close to do q
good job of cultivating with a trac-
tor and leaves a lot of hand work
which could be done away with il
the trees and rows were spaced {
greater distance.
Planted Too Close
In 1886 I set out another lot O
green ash, with a row of caraganai
on the outside. The trees in this plo
are spaced 20 feet each way, blu
would have been better if they wer'
spaced 25 feet, as they are rathe
close to cultivate with a large trac
tor. These trees are now almos
as large as the ones that were Sc
out five years earlier, which seem
to indicate that trees need lots Q
room to make their best growth.

How We Started a Pure Strain
of Ladino Clover Seed
By H. S. PARKER, Flathead County

I would say one could expect $50
to 200 pounds of seed per acre under
favorable conditions.
We really haven't made money on
ladino yet, but do hope we have
given the state a good pure strain of
seed that will benefit everyone using
it.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

A FEW years ago we became inter-
"A ested in ladino clover, so my
brother obtained the best seed he
could get. This best seed was not
the quality that we made a practice
of growing. 1t had various mixtures
in it such as treefoil and alsike
clover. We put in 10 acres to start
with.
One six-acre piece in particular
we spent a lot of time roguing dur
ing the summer. However, alsike
clover is one thing you can't do
much roguing out. This ladino was
planted with western rye grass to
help hold it up so we could cut it.
1t failed to hold up very well, but
was easier to cut than ladino planted
alone.
Planting with a grass cuts down
the yield some. I believe we had
about 100 pounds per acre yield the
first time we cut it for seed. That
fall it froze up dry and winter-killed.
We did not irrigate it that fall and
the low spots where there was more
moisture were the only ones that
lived. Since then we irrigate in the
fall if it is dry, and the clover gen.
orally lives over.
Hand Sorted Seed
My brother took a couple pounds
of this seed and began picking it
over by hand the next winter, OBJ
tanning some alsike clover seed for
comparison. He picked about a
pound finally three or four times.
This seed was planted on about
one-third of al acre in rows IL
inches apart. This plot we again
rogued faithfully all summer, and
the next year E. A. Hallowell from
the department of agriculture was
out here and inspected it and gave
it his approval for registered ladino
seed. This is the seed that registered
ladino in Montana comes from.
We now have six acres planted
from this seed that will produce the
second crop in 1948. This is planted
without any grass for support and
is hard to harvest, as it is hard to
get a mower through it.
Good Pasture Crop
This clover grows knee high with
us and is a thick mat. 1t does {
great job enriching the land it i:
grown on. We have not pastured it
but a see that it would produce
a lot of fine pasture or irrigated
land or subirrigated. We usually If
rigate two or three times during the
summer with a sprinkler system.
We have always left the first crol
stand and the second grow up in
and cut it in September. This make
it late and hard to get dry enough t.
thresh. This year I am going to tr,
cutting the first crop to see if we
get a second.

A DEPENDABLE pumping plant
- plus sprinkler irrigation make
up the winning combination at Carl
Kuehni's Blaine county farm. The
pumping installation makes possible
the irrigation of land from the Milk
river which borders the farm.
''The sprinkler system is a great
outfit for sugar beets or potatoes"
says Kuehni. 81 think the sprinkler
system is better for beets than ditch
irrigation because the ground gets
soaked up too much by the ditch
system. Also, the sprinkler system
doesn't crust the surface of the
ground so much and gives a natural
moisture condition, penetrating well
down to pillow depth"
Irrigates Acre Per Hour
The rotary head type sprinkler
system will irrigate about an acre
an hour. Twenty-foot sections of
portable galvanized pipe make up
the 700-foot field feeder system for
the sprinklers. The pipe lengths,
complete with one sprinkler head,
weigh 10 pounds. Kuehni tried
using one sprinkler head for every
40 feet but found that it took too
long to irrigate and changed to
using one every 20 feet. At the rate
of 400 gallons per minute, an acre
can be watered in about one hour.
The 240-acre farm is usually
cropped with about IS acres of
sugar beets, 35 acres of grain and
the balance alfalfa. Kuehni keeps
about SO head of beef cattle includ-
ing 6 cows.
The main pump installation has
been operating since 1887 with ne
major breakdowns, and the only
real trouble was during the frs
two years of operation. The 25 hip
diesel power unit was the old ligh
plant for the city of Turner. A 2,20
Solioii PC1 iiiiiotC @OliIliluSol Polil

the pressure in the neighboring
