Senator KEN, Republican, OF
Missouri. a sharp critic of the
Truman administrators foreign
policies, complained that Mr.
Dulles had not attempted to
answer what the Senator called
Mr.. Hoover's main point" This
was:
THAT our Allies cannot ex-
pect continued assistance from
the American people when they
show no convincing will to defend
themselves"
Senator Schoeppel, Republican,
of Kansas told reporters he doesn't
think it is "isolationism" to plan
for a strong America Previously,
Mr.. Truman had said that the
Hoover formula was nothing more
than isolationism, adding that the
country wasn't going back to that.
Observing that he can't go
along with some of Mr.. Dulles
theories, Senator Schoeppel said:
''The American people are look

us out of this situation. He doesn' t
have to be too smart. but just a
plain. good American who puts
the United States above all-out

the United States finds out first
whether Western Europe has the

pleased that Mr.. Dulles has
spoken out against the Herbert
Hoover proposal of 1850 and the
Henry Wallace proposal of 1916, +"

Senator Douglas, Democrat, of

Mr.. Dulles has put the finger on
the weakness of the Hoover posi-
tion--if we abandon Europe and
Asia we give up most of the air
bases we need to defend ourselves
against attack"

Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of
Tennessee said he thinks Mr..
Dulles "is right in saying we must
consider our neighbors in planning

Ernest A. Gross. deputy United
States representative to the U. NJ,
told the same meeting that the
purpose of Soviet diplomacy and
propaganda is to split the rest of
the free world from the United
States
He said this effort to create
disunity among non-Communist
nations follows three lines:
/. To Asians, Americans are
pictured as imperialists and ag-
gressors.
2. For Americans, Communism
has stressed the relatively slight
military contribution made by
other U. N. members so as to dis

sweet clover or inseparable weed
seeds. They lose, first, in excess
dockage resulting from an attempt
to clean mixture out of the seed
and, second, from a lower price per
pound they receive in the sale OF
low purity seed.
New Varieties
The matter of new varieties is
coming into the picture and will
probably be more so in the future.
That doesn't mean that Grim, Cos
sack and Ladak will be out of the
picture for sometime to come, but
it would be well for growers who
have these varieties to begin work
ing out a program that will make
it possible to make a shift to these
newer varieties over span OF years.
All of the new varieties, such as
Ranger, that will be released in the
future will have disease resistance
bred into them. This means three
things as far as Montana producers
are concerned: l. Isolation from
other alfalfa will be a requirement.
2. Unless these new varieties are
raised under a certification program
and tagged and sealed, there will be
no certainty of their maintaining re-
sistance. 8. Fields now in other va
rieties of alfalfa will have to be fall
lowed and in other crops to 5 years
before they can be planted to any
new varieties.
Alfalfa seed production has always
been considered hazardous. If nature
takes her course, it is, but by regu-
lating plant growth we are able to
fool the plant in some years. Thus,
a lot of the hazards can be overcome
and a more stable industry de-
veloped.

taking place affecting all the hs-
man race. And, looking back
ward, I will bet that farmers are
dead sure TO get their share of
new machines and ways to ease
their work and shorten days.
Just look back at the last few
years and start forgetting all your
fears that we have gone as fairs
we can, then look ahead and
start TO plan.
Already I am practicing for
that time when most everything
will get done up the easy way, in
just couple hours a day. I'll do
my farming with my head, from
where l lie here in my bed I'll
push a button, throw a switch
and then without a single hitch
the cow and hogs will get their
feed, the hens will have the
things they need. With plant
food, new crops and machines,
our stuff will grow just like
Jacks beans; We'll whip the pants
of every pest and make the
weather that works best. Mirandy
won't have much to do, she'll
probably get lazy too.

Orchard & Garden

SEED CATALOG TIME comes IN
January, and we all like to relax
with the gaily colored pictures and
the glowing descriptions and dream
of the plump tomatoes and luscious
watermelons and other vegetables
we will harvest from our garden in
the good old summertime.
Somehow all this makes harvest
time seem just little closer. How
ever, we should pause to consider
number of facts before dashing off
an order for seed.
First, what are the characteristics
of good seed? Good seed is clean;
that is, it is free from weed seeds,
trash and dirt. With good vegetable
seed, cleanliness is not often a prob
lem.
Good seed is viable. This means
that the seed must be able to gerni-
nate, and have sufficient vitality to
emerge successfully from the ground
ard produce strong seeding.
Free From Disease
Good seed should be free from dis
ease. Certain diseases of vegetables
are seed-borne. Some of these can
be controlled by seed treatment, 9TH
ers only by careful production meth
DDS, if at all.
Unfortunately, the ranch or home
gardener does not always get all of
these desirable characteristics in the
seed he receives from the seedsmen
or purchases locally in packet form.
It has been something of a tradition
in the seed industry, and doubtless
good business, for the best quality
seeds to go TO those who purchase

in quantity, with the lower grades
being sold through the packet trade.
Those who grow vegetables in Mon
tana are rather vulnerable to I'M
scrupulous seedsmen, because there
is no state law governing the sale
of vegetable seeds.
Tested. Treated Seed
On the other hand, many reputable
seedsmen are making real effort to
deliver high grade seeds to the small
user, and they are to be commended
greatly for such effort. Among the
things which the best seedsmen do
in order to deliver high grade seeds
to their customers, both large and
small, are:
First, the testing of strains of vege-
tables in their own trial grounds, and
the selection and breeding of supe-
rior lines for their own particular
area;
Second, each packet is clearly
marked with the percentage gernl-
nation of the lot of seed contained
therein, together with the year and
month in which the termination test
was conducted.
Third, the best seedsnen treat
their vegetable seeds with suitable
disinfectants for the control of the
fungi causing damping-off, or en-
ploy hot water or other treatment
for the control of seed-borne dis
eases, especially for tomatoes and
members of the cabbage family.
The best seed is always the most
economical, even though the price
may seem high at first.

eggs, has been referred to this office
for reply.
under the program as announced
producers support prices for eggs in
1850 will vary from the specified 81
cent national annual average level
according to season, area of produc-
ton, and the quality of eggs sold by
individual producers. In seeking to
maintain egg prices for the entire
year at the specified average level,
which is about rs percent of the
modernized parity, it is emphasized
that the 1850 support level of 81
cents dozen should not in any way
be construed as meaning that all pro-
ducers will receive a farm price Of
81 cents a dozen at all seasons in
all areas for all the eggs they sell.
IS Cents Midwest
"An announcement has been made
by the Production and Marketing adj
ministration to purchase dried whole
eggs during January and February
in the midwest from professors who
have paid producers for all of the
shell eggs they buy at an average
price of IS cents per dozen or n
cents per dozen delivered by pro-
ducers directly to the processing
plant. Prices for subsequent periods
have not been announced to date.
However, normal price variations
because of season, for example, show
that to meet national average farn
price of 81 cents dozen, the aver
age price for the nation should be
about 81 to SO cents a dozen in the
spring. Taking into account the nor
NAL price variations according to
areas of production, the farm price
for the spring months in the mid
west, where prices are usually the
lowest, should average for that per-
iod about % to 80 cents per dozen.
''The actual prices received by
individual producers will vary, Of

eastern Montana, particularly, and
because it ties in so definitely with
the livestock industry.
Alfalfa seed production is an en-
terprise of its own. Alfalfa planted
for hay is different. Alfalfa for seed
should be planted and handled with
the idea of producing plants as large
as possible. This means that the
amount of moisture that will nor
mally be available during the grow
ing season should govern the thick
ness of the stand.
On dryland "a to 12-pound of seed
in 10-foot rows will produce stand
that will be really too thick in 2 to
years. If there is plant every 2
feet in these rows, the stand is about
right.
There's only limited amount of
moisture for dryland alfalfa produc-
ton. It's better to have one big
plant rather than one dozen small
ones cover a given area. Plants in a
thin stand will produce more bios
SONS and will cover more area of
soil and prevent blasting of the plant
from heat. A thin stand of large in
dividual plants is the first chapter
in an alfalfa seed production story.
Under Flood Irrigation
Under flood irrigation, where it is
reasonable to expect one good flood
ing year, the rate of seeding can
be increased to pounds per acre
Here again it is a good idea to seed
in rows Is to SO inches apart. Under
controlled irrigation where water ii
available at all times alfalfa should
be seeded at rate of to pound.
per acre in 12-inch rows. These ara
maximum rates of seed per acre.
Why stress row planting? Well
under this kind of a system, you
cultivation program can be made s,
much more effective. In the case o
dryland and flood irrigation plant
ings, cultivation to control weed
and conserve most of the availabl
moisture is essential. A much bet
ter job will be done where alfalf
is in rows than where it is broadcas
Generally there is a more uniforr
stand.
Again, when alfalfa is planted i
rows it's much easier to rogue Gro
mixtures and weeds that have bee
missed through cultivation opera
tions. And don't forget that alfah
seed growers lose a tremendou
amount of income every year whe
alfalfa seed is contaminated wit
