begin construction was eliminated by
the Commissioners before they sent the
budget to Congress this year.
AS for Dunbar the idea has been to
make a $1,05O,O0O addition to that
structure. The 1850 budget appropriated
$23,250 for drawing up plans.
Again, however, the Commissioners
struck money for beginning this con-
struction (s4OO,OO0) from the budget be-
fore sending it to Congress.
Now the question arises whether new
Armstrong is needed and whether an
addition to Dunbar will be necessary.
The Board of Education will have to
answer this question, in the light OF con-
ditions under the new set-up.

watch on the quality of the enforcement of the

will depend in considerable degree on the

Seven Points For
Growing Beans

WYOMING BEAN GROWERS
will do well to watch seven factors
in producing this years crop.
Douglas w. Burke, assistant plant
pathologist at the Big Horn Basin
laboratory of the University of Wyo-
ming, lists these pointers for the
benefit of growers:
l. Rotation. This makes it posi-
bic to maintain soil fertility through
blowing under alfalfa and clover
crops. It also discourages the de-
velopment and spread of soil-borne
bean diseases.
2. Good Seed. In clean, fertile soil,
good seed is a good combination to
start with. Seed should be bright
and plump, free of disease organ
isms, free of varietal mixtures, and
have high termination. Certified
seed meets these requirements.
3. Dusting with Sulphur. Prevent
ing rust development in Great
Northerns and Pintos is always good
practices. At least one application
of 20 to % pounds per acre should
be made early in the season, when
the plants are to 10 inches high.
4. Frequent. Light Irrigtions.
These will reduce the teaching away
of soil fertility and provide a gen.
orally more healthful environment
for plant growth. Light irrigations
will also aid in controlling soil-borne
root rot and white mold.
5. Early Varieties. including the
new Idaho Great Northerns Nos. Is
and 81 and Pintos Nos. rs, Il and
Ill. These should prove desirable
for growing on fields with heavy
infestations of root rot or white
mold. Since these diseases generally
cause greatest damage late in the
season, these varieties, maturing
or 2 weeks earlier than commonly
grown Great Northerns, should
escape some of the damage.
6. Depth of Planting. Plants from
seed planted 275 to inches deep
were much more severely damaged
by root rot than those from seed
planted l inch deep.
z. Time of Planting. Don't plan
beans before soil is well warmed up
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1950-05-15

depends on the amount of water
available, but if it is under man
hour per acre it is very good, or l
to man-hours per acre is fair to
good. Over 2 man-hours per acre
probably indicates too small stream
of water or poor efficiency in the
irrigation system.
Every farmer should analyze his
irrigation system on this or a similar
basis and know the fact. If water is
the limiting factor, it may be that
either the corrugation or sprinkler
method would have to be used in
order to cover the land adequately
and use labor efficiently.
Measure for Sprinkling
If a sprinkler system is to be in
stalled it is very important to meas
ure the water available throughout
a season and determine the average
flow and the minimum flow. When
water is limited, the sprinkler de-
sign must be based on the amount
available.
Another situation where water
measurement is important occurs
when water is to be pumped from a
limited supply. The size of pump and
power requirement will be deter
mined by the amount of water to be
pumped and the lift.
On many projects in Montana we
have unnecessary bitches which par
allel each other and which serve no
definite purpose. In order to deter
mine what the ditch loss is and what
might be accomplished by rearrange-
ment of bitches it is advisable to
measure water at different places in
the bitches on the farm. Certain sec
tons of bitches may be losing water
in large enough quantities to justify
lining with bentonite or concrete.
For this type of measurement, port
able measuring devices are best
adapted.
Measuring water is a relatively
simple thing if properly installed
structures are available. Plans for
making water measuring structures
can be obtained from county agents
or by writing to the Montana State
college, Bozeman, Mont

tional League championship and then defeated the New
York Rovers in the National finals.
In the 1948-49 season, Toledo finished first in the
northern division and second in the southern division OF
the international League, winning the playoffs in both
units. Last year the team went to the U. S. semi-flnals
as representative of the Eastern Hockey League. =
During the three seasons, Muligan's teams won a to-
tai of 81 games, lost 81, and tied 20 in regular league play.
Mulligan, born Feb. IL, 1906, in Winnipeg, attended
ST. Boniface High School and University of Manitoba in
that city before he began his professional career as a
hockey player with the Regina Capitals OF the Western
Canada League.
His hockey trail took him to st. Louis, Chicago and
Providence in the American League; st. Paul, Minneapo-
: lis and Kansas City in the American Association, and Bos-
ton and Saskatoon. He was on the league an-star teams
several times.
After leaving Toledo in 1941, he was a ~yardmaster
for the Canadian Pacific Railroad and also was an inves-
tors syndicate bond salesman, and keeping busy in hockey
as a scout and coach for the st. James Canadians OF Win
-nipeg.
Muligan, generally known as "Mr. Hockey" in To-
ledo because of his promotional efforts which built up
sell-out crowds for Toedos games, will continue to direct
promotional efforts in that field as well as directing all
entertainment programs in the Sports Arena. One OF his
first duties will be to select a successor as hockey coach.
Mr.. Mulligan and his wife, Mildred, are the parents
fsof two daughters, Patricia, a nurse, and Barbara, a stu
dent in Waite High School.
