Modern
Marriage
Neglect Of Father
Affects His Views
Toward Child
By Dr.. Paul Popenos

Mr.. c. wasn't much Interested
n the baby. his wife said.
isn't there something wrong
With q father" she asked. when
hs comes home at night and
hardly notices an adorable little
girl Of eight months in her crib?"
Men are usually not SO much
interested In babies. as women
are" replied. after a child is
old enough to be responsive, to-
talk back, to be something Of a
companion instead Of mere OBJ
3ect Of alteration, a father usually
feels happier. He doesn't ignore
your four-year-old boy In the
same way, does hep"
"Oh. no. he plays with his boy
. lot. But I wish he weren't 30
indifferent to the baby"
DO you think there might
unconsciously be a little feeling
Of rivalry there?" I inquired.
Maybe you have given 50 much
attention to the baby that he
feels he is the one who is being
ignored"
She looked guilty. and then
nodded her head in assent.
"It's easy for a young mother
with fascinating baby to lose her
own perspective" I pursued.
~Some times the change is sud-
den and more than the husband
expected. She won't 60 anywhere
with him, because she can't leave
the baby. Meals are never on time,
because she is playing with the
baby. Buttons aren't sewed on his
shirts, because she is altering
baby clothes. The sex side of mar
1iage deteriorates ....'
She looked guilty again. and
then nodded assent once more.
TITS all true" she confessed.
IT was just guessing" I insisted.
Fathers should not be childish
IN wanting attention. but many a
young mother fails to live up to
her own responsibilities in the
marriage partnership, after a baby
appears. That's the time when she
should lavish extra affection on
her husband, making him feel
that the baby is not hers, but
theirs. That one of its greatest
values is its embodiment of its
fathers personality. That's the
time when both husband and wife
must keep their goal In mind.
Q. What are the most important
subjects on which husband and
wife should agree?
A. Sociologist M. F. Nimkoff
says children. employment OF wife
outside the home for pay, religious
beliefs, sex and friends. Conflicts
over any one of these may arouse
strong and destructive feelings.
@. My parents don't agree with
each other about my plans for
marriage.
A., Studies show it is safer to
follow the judgment of your
father than that Of your mother.
He Is more likely to be objective
and disinterested. But of course
the thing you must finally do. after
weighing carefully the opinions Of
your parents. is to follow your
Judgment. It's your marriage!

WINTER WHEAT

In most areas of Montana the
best date for seeding winter wheat
is Sept. Is. Winter wheat seeded
prior to Sept. l is very likely to
be infected with root-rot.
All winter wheat should be
treated prior TO seeding as a pro-
lection against sinking smut. The
cost is low and the protection
large. When sinking smut shows
up in the field if is then too late
to do anything about it.
The planting of clean seed of
Montana recommended varieties
is one of the surest ways of main
tanning quality production. All
such seed should be treated.
Supplies of such seed can be OBJ
tanned by consulting your county
extension agent. who has a list of
available supplies.
For all areas of the state. ex-
cept those in the mountain areas
where dwarf smut is a factor.
Yogo. Karmont and Newturk are
the varieties recommended. The
first two are bearded and the
third. Newturk. is beardless. All
are good Yielders and have SAT-
isfactorY milling qualities. Yogo
has more resistance TO winter kill
ing than Karmont and Newturk.
Wasatch is the recommended
variety for the areas where dwarf
smut is present. There is no treat
ment against dwarf smut. Wa
satch is not sufficiently winter
hardy for planting in the winter
wheat area and east of the noun
tains.

the Montana Seed Growers asso-
citation at the 1949 meeting.
1. All samples for grade and GER
mination from Individual growers
must be taken by a representative
of the Montana Seed Growers as
ISOLATION. For small grain a full peck
must be sent in to the association.
2. The grade sample must be taxi
en- from the entire cleaned lot. Be-
cause of the time element in winter
wheat between harvest and plant
ing, a sample from a partial cleaned
lot will be accepted. The grower
should keep a portion of the cleaned
seed sent in for grade and make
sure the entire lot is as good or
better than the grade sample.
3. All sales made for the produc-
ton of registered seed in 1850 must
be packaged in clean bags and
tagged and sealed by a representa-
tive of the Montana Seed Growers
association. Bulk sales will not be
eligible for registration.
4. The regulations recommend
that all seed be cleaned at an au-
thorized cleaning plant. This is not
a requirement where a producer or
group of producers are equipped to
do a good job and maintain the
purity.

Soils and CROPS

~ 80
be classed as the average for Mon
tana. Coming on the heels of of
our best production years, it seems
even worse than the average.
In the southeastern portion of the
state it really is. worse than the av-
erage, for, following a very tough
winter, the lack of adequate rain
fall has coupled with n of the
worst grasshopper infestations ever
experienced in this section of Mon
tana.
Livestock producers are wisely re-
ducing livestock numbers and in
some cases are hauling every hoof
to town. While nobody likes to see
these good herds and bands reduced,
or even dispersed, experience has
shown that this is the only wise
course to pursue.
While travelling from Lewistown
to Jordan to Miles City recently,
with the temperature in the shade
well over 100 degrees and no shade,
I was tuned in on a sales yard and
heard most of the better class of
cattle knocked down at $18 to $500
per cwt.
Contrast 4 Sad Past
Listening to the ~grasshoppers
'bust" themselves against the wind
shield and, between the splatters
viewing the denuded rangeland, I
recalled without pleasure the ex-
perience of directing the cattle and
sheep purchase program in Rose
bud county in 1884. That is the year
and the program that gave. me my
first gray hairs. Mine were only a
few l n comparison to those of the
growers I was trying to help in the
disposal of an industry which it
had taken a lifetime in many cases
to build up. Maybe that experience
is helping many in making the de-
cision to sell now.
Tillage
Prior to 1888 most of our small
grain producers came to realize that
str~ip-cropping to hold the land in
place and summer fallow to store
moisture in the soil and make plant
food available was an essential prac-
tice in maintaining crop yields.
The following series of good years,
of which 1913 was the climax, led
to gambling that every year would
be good. In 1949 many a producer
got caught short, not only for 1949
but for 1850.
1t is a comparatively easy matter
to drive through various commune
ties or counties today and make a
complete check on the type of farm
ing being done. All you have to dc
is look at the cereal fields and lack
of abundance of stubble-mulch till
age.
Like an Oasis
One of these better areas thai
sticks out like an oasis in the deser-
in 1949 is the area around Dentor
in Fergus county.
In this area you will find entir,
communities still maintaining thei
strip-fallow program. In addition
you will find that they are prac
ticing stubble-mulch tillage on tn
fallowed strips to further reduce tn
possibilities of soil blowing and t

US. ENGINEERS TO SURVEY
 ALASKA'S WATER RESOURCE.

A comprehensive survey of the vast Territory of Alaska designed to accomplish in Alaska what has been done by the Corps of Engin- eers in many river basins through out the United States, has been authorized by the the Chief of Engineers and will be carried out by the Alaska and Seattle Dis tricts under supervision of the North Pacific division, Colonel Theron D. Weaver, division engin- ger, announced recently
 Similar to the recent 1908" re- view report on the Columbia river and tributaries, the Alaska survey will cover the entire Territory and plan for development to meet the needs of Alaska's rapidly expand ing population for power, flood control, navigation and other uses. When completed the studies will result in a comprehensive and CO., ordinated plan for the water re- source development in Alaska com parable in scope to the three-mil lion dollar program recommend ed in the Columbia basin report com pleted by the North Pacific divi- sion last October. Colonel Weaver said.
 Resulting from a congressional directive contained in the flood control act of June, 194S, the work has been assigned to the Alaska district engineer with the provi- sion that he may obtain help from the Seattle district. The Seattle
