Soils and Crops

WHILE MANY of US have reached
the point where we're saying, when
the works all done this fall" many
more are wondering just how those
critters are going to get through the
winter with a limited supply of win
ter grazing and a reduced reserve of
winter feed.
Fortunately the same condition
does not exist all over the state, but
in several areas the rainfall was not
very abundant this tall. and the
grasshoppers played hob with the
range grasses. There are areas where
there is a surplus of forage, but it's
going to come mighty high to the
fellow who has to buy and then
transport it.
My old friend John was Sorta pat
ting himself on the back recently
for putting up hay from every acre
of crested w~heatgrass ne had on his
holdings this year. He even went
over the fields that had been pas
tured rather extensively this spring.
He said he was afraid of the appetite
of the grasshoppers and figured
every pound he salvaged from them
would help him see his cattle
through the winter. Knowing John
as I do, I'm inclined to believe he
would have put up a lot of hay any
way, but maybe the thought of past
experiences with grasshoppers kept
prodding him on to make the piles
higher and deeper.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-12-15
BETTER GRASSES?

During our chat John said, Ralph,
what's all the talk about these new
grasses? Are they as good as o. bet
ter than crested wheatgrass? If they
are, they'll have to be good" After
a statement like that my only reply
vas a sort of rebuttal. Every state
experiment station in the country is
working on grasses and legumes.
Some day the plant breeders may
find a grass or grasses that are bet
ter than crested w~heatgrass for our
conditions. In the meantime we
should thank our lucky stars we
have a cultivated grass which has
the capacity to do such a good job
in s~upplementing native grasses.
Sure, we'd like to have a COM
panion grass that would extend our
grazing period a few weeks, but
we aren't in a critical condition with
just crested wheatgrass. Sure, it has
its limitations, but so nave all of us.
One of our limitations is that very
few use crested wheatgrass to its
full capacity. Here we are talking
about grass when most of it is under
a blanket of snow, but it will be
green before we know it.

WHEAT SHOW

You have probably seen the an
nouncement of the Montana wheat
show which will be one of the fea-
lures of the Montana Winter fair to
be held in Bozeman Feb. 81 to 26,
1949.
This is the type of show we have
been hoping to see for a long time.
1t will be a straight commercial
show with the samples being judged
on their commercial value.
1t is hoped that producers of hard
red winter and hard red spring
wheat all over the state will prepare
exhibits for this show.
Judging will be based on varietal
purity, test weight, protein content
and baking qualities.
The state has been divided into

OTHER SHOWS IN STATE
Besides the Montana Wheat show,
other shows and dates are as fol-
lows:
Jan. 29-29-Milk River valley
seed and potato show, Harlem.
Feb. 3-4-5-Montana potato and
seed show, Kalispell.
Feb. 11-12-Carbon county seed
show, Red Lodge.
These shows will feature regis
tered small grain, seeds and certified
potatoes and approved small grains.
1t is suggested that producers of
registered alfalfa and clover growers
who have their seed cleaned at an
authorized cleaning plant authorize
the manager to put up a 1-pound
have it entered in the Montana Po-
tato and Seed show at Kalispell.
This is a state show and deserves
the support of all producers.
In those counties eligible to show
in the Milk River valley seed and
potato show, the registered small
seed and registered small grain SAM
Piles could compete in this show and
then be shipped on to Kalispell for
the show there,
1t takes samples to make any show
and Pm sure the management of
each of the shows listed will appre-
ciate the fine cooperation which
Montana producers always give.
FLAX INSTITUTE
During the early part of Novem-
Der I had the privilege of attending
the annual meeting of the Flax In

Reports given by research workers
of the state experiment stations in

TO me that the flax crop is getting

true from the standpoint of research
in the utilization of the crop.
