Counties Get $37,584
From Grazing Lands

TEN MONTANA counties receive
37,584.35 this year as their share
of the 1913 receipts from lands in
land utilization projects that are
owned by the federal government
and administered by the Soil Con-
servation service, Truman c. Ander-
son of Bozeman, state conservation
ist for the SCS, has been notified.
Mailing of checks for such pay
ments throughout the United States
has been started by the U. S. treas
ury, Anderson was informed, and
Montana's should arrive soon if they
have not already been received.
The payments, Anderson ex-
planned, are 25 percent of the re-
ceipts and are made in lieu of taxes.
This years payments bring the to-
tai to the 10 counties-Prairie, Phil
lips, Blaine, Valley, Petroleum, Mus
selshell, Fergus, Yellowstone, Gus
ter and Fallon-to $149, 1852.
Lands from which this revenue
comes to the counties, Anderson
said, are those that were bought by
the federal government in the late
1905 and were included in land
utilization projects. There, they have
been used in cooperation with pri-
vate and state lands to help make
needed land use adjustments and
establish stable, livestock units.
Their purchase was made under
authority of Title III of the Bank
head-Jones Farm Tenant act. The
act provides that the money paid
in lieu of taxes is for schools and
roads.

Billings, director Of the bureaus re-
gion 6, said.
Applications received by the SUI
perintendent of the Shoshone prof.
ect at Cody, Wyo., by 2 p. M, July
IL, for one of the 104 farms of about
100 acres each on the Heart noun
tain division of the Shoshone prof.
ect in the vicinity of Cody and
Powell, Wyo., will be considered as
simultaneously filed. Applications
received after that date will be con-
sidered, in the order received, only
if farm units remain available after
awards are made to those applicants
filing before the July IL deadline.
The close of the simultaneous fill
ing period for the SO irrigable farm
units on the Riverton project near
Riverton, Wyo., is 2 p. M, August 2,
and applications must be received
by the superintendent of operation
and development at Riverton by
that time in order to be considered
for the public drawing which will
establish the priority for considera-
ton for the available farms, which
average more than 100 acres each.
Application forms can be secured
from the project offices at Cody and
Riverton or from the regional direc-
tors office at Billings.
The land opened for settlement
has, for the most part, never been
cultivated, but is well adapted to
irrigation farming. Canals and lat
erals for irrigation have been con-
structed by the Bureau of Reclama-
ton. The Bureau of Reclamation
plans to give each entryman the ap-
proximate equivalent of one bar
racks building 20x120 feet, located
at the Heart Mountain relocation
center midway between Cody and

but in general the rainfall is expected to be in
adequate and may even become more deficient
later in the month. The first week of July appears
the most favorable for precipitation in the Wyo-
ming area, whereas the second week has the best
chance of bringing substantial moisture to north
ern Montana. With showers as the main source of
moisture, big variations are to be expected, and
some localities may be fortunate enough to receive
the normal amounts while other areas receive very
little. Above normal temperatures are expected
much of the time, and this period should see the
beginning of a trend to real summer weather
and high readings at times. The few shower
periods are not likely to cause abnormal inter

new rainfall stations are now being
set up in cooperation with the
Bureau of Reclamation for use in
their Missouri valley development
program. These AZ new stations will
be a considerable supplement to the

in the state. The stations are manned
by public-spirited volunteer local
citizens who receive nothing for

New Weather Service
Aids Farmers

ord?" This is one of the latest ques-
tons being asked by farmers before
buying new land, according to R. A.
Dightman, climatologist with the
u. S. weather bureau, Helena.
The value of weather data was
felt in dollars and cents when a
group of Idaho farmers started look
ing over a Montana ranch they
thought of buying. One of the first
things they wanted to see after
looking the place over was the past
were planning On converting much
of the rangeland to wheat produc-
ton. What they were willing to pay
hinged largely on weather records
from the Genealogical service,
showing average temperatures and
rainfall as well as the driest and
wettest figures.
New Statistical Service
Dightman also reports that his
staff may soon find it possible to
devote some study to the applica-
ton of weather data to the problems
of farmers and ranchers, business
men and government agencies in
agriculture, industry and transpor-
tation-a service phase that has
been neglected for many years. The
reorganization of the Genealogical
service started some two year ago
is near completion of the first phase.
This step has been establishing a
new punch-card statistical system
IN Seattle, Washington.
This new processing office and its
machines have allowed the empha-
sis of the service to change from
the drudgery connected with COM
piling figures to application of the
information in the figures. Stats
teal jobs that heretofore took days
and months can now be solved in a
matter of minutes or hours.
One of the most notable improve
ments to date has been in the regu-
lar publications of the office. More
information is now available in the
monthly report, archaeological
Data for Montana" subscriptions
available for $3.50 a year by request
to Genealogical Service, u. S.
Weather Bureau, Helena, Montana),
This is also true of the weekly
weather and crops bulletins which
are widely publicized by newspa-
pers, radio stations and government
services.
Specific problems from farmer:
or ranchers and businessmen are an.
swered directly where the amoun-
of research work required is not pro
hibitive. In cases of specific prob
lens requiring extensive analysis
weather data from the records ar,
sent and interpretations are left III
to the individual.
Production Estimates
Using the SIS years of weather rec
ords available for many Montan
localities, the farmer could, for ex
ample, do a good job of estimatin
crop yields over a period of year.
One way of possibly leveling OF
the farm income would be to set u
a 10-year possibility chart. If tn

ference with haying and harvesting. July weather will favor the
corn, ant and sorghum crops more than the small crops.
Weather Changes
The period begins with a day or two of cool, showery weather,
especially in the south portions of Montana Farmer Stockman terri
tory. A disturbance and moderate temperatures are likely to cause
showers east of the continental divide from the 4h to 9th, followed
by warmw weather from the 7th to 9th.
A frontal disturbance and lower temperatures m expected to
reach northwest Montana by the 10th and cause a few days of thunder
storm activity throughout this forecast area. This is a favorable time
for precipitation in various amounts but heaviest east of the divide.
Another storm period is indicated from July 18th through the
weekend. At this time a wave Of cooler air, accompanied by showers,
will cross this forecast region and result in fairly widespread pre-
cipHahon in various amounts. Northern Montana, however, is ex-
pected to fare best for moisture from this storm period.
