Homemade Electric
Lamb BrOOder
By 4 READER, Liberty County


HERE 1T is almost lambing time
again, so I thought I'd send you my
homemade lamb brooder idea. 1t is
just long two-strand heavy cleo
trio wire with light socket for each
jug. Where the socket is added on
have the socket about inches from
main wire. 1t is made the same as
Christmas tree lights.
Put hole in 2-pound coffee can
or other can of similar size. Then
put the bulb (150-watt through the
hole and screw into socket If you
get the hole too large, twist a piece
of haywire into spring to hold it
up to socket. Now the dust of feed,
ETC., does not get on bulb. Have the
bottom of can about 20 to "a inches
from bedding.
If you want the electric shop to
make this, it costs very little. We
have used this two years for early
lambing and haven't had a single
chilled lamb. 1t has been as cold as
Is below and our lambs were coy.
Another advantage is you always
have lamb and eve in a good light
without disturbing them. The lambs
crawl up in the corner under the
light and the ewes don't have a
chance to step or lie on them.

SprinkIers Best
For Sidehill Crop
By CLAUDE BENEDICK
Sanders County

MUCH OF OUR cropland is on
side hill. About four years ago we
decided that it was too steep to ir-
rigate successfully using the flood
system. Our best top soil was
washed away when there was an
abundance Of water, and when
water was low, we made very little
progress.
For years we dreamed of sprinkler
pipes, so when they finally came on
the market we invested in system
Montana farmer-stockman., 1951-03-01

of perforated aluminium pipes. These
pipes were four-inch. Last year we
added some three-inch pipes and
found them very satisfactory. We
bought a pumping outfit which we
operated with our tractor. This
worked very well, but as we worked
over the ground we discovered that
we could lay the pipes with fall
enough to create pressure to irrigate
without pumping on a large part of
our ground.
We often lay the line of pipes over
uneven ground and get good results
because the joints are very flexible.
All of the field can be wet equally
well with a little care Last season
was very dry here. Our grain would
not have made any crop without
sprinkling and our hay crop would
have been very short. We began
sprinkling the grain when it was
very small and sprinkled the oats
the last time when they were headed
up. The grain was tall so we were
afraid that we would do more harm
than good when we moved the pipes.
We found, however, that we could
not see where we had worked by
the next day.
We do not think the sprinkler
system is nearly as hard work as
flooding was and we are much
better satisfied with the results. The
aluminium pipes are not heavy
to handle. One person can change a
quarter of mile of pipe in a half
hour after little practice.
We find that the type of soil will
determine the length of time neces-
sary to leave the pipes in one place.
We plan to buy more pipes in order
to cover larger area at one time.
Whether you can use gravity for
pressure or have to pump, we feel
that is is the best method of irrigat-
ing yet developed.

Farm end Ranch Experiences
BY CONRAD BRUNGARD

L got my intermediate WnGaISrdSS
seed from the Soil Conservation
service. The seed, according to the
tag that was in the sack, had been
raised at the government experiment
station at Dickinson, N. D.
There were about IL pounds of
seed, so planted it in rows on s.
acre strip. The rate of seed probably
averaged ia pounds to the acre. This
seeding was done about the 10Th of
May in 1947. 1t was on ground that
had been in corn the year before,
so it had most things in its favor.
1t was starting to come up in about
week to 10 days, and it had very
favorable growing conditions, so I
was able to cultivate it the same time
that I worked my corn. l must say
that I had to travel very slowly
while I was going it, as it did not
stand out too we'll above the weeds
that were coming along with it.
Well Rooted by Fall
Some of the stems reached a height
the plants were well rooted. One
of the things that l did notice was
that where got the seed in the
ground about an inch to an inch and
one-half l got the best stand-why,
I could not say.
In 1913 it came up about week
later than the crested wheatgrass.
The plants grew well that year and
I cultivated it once about the last
of May. Outside of killing few
weeds it is hard to say whether I
did the grass any good, as it seemed
to me that the working disturbed
some of the roots of the plants. 1t
reached an average height of about
31a feet that year and cut it with
the grain binder and had it threshed
the same time as the rest of my crop.
I got something over 200 pounds of
good seed that year.
/ seeded IL more acres that fall to
see whether it would start better
from fall seeding or not. This plant
ing came up in the spring of 1949
all right and still seemed to be strug-
Cling along in the fall after a very
dry hot summer. The old stand came
along well as far as growth was con-
cerned, but hot weather hit it just
when it was in blossom and there
seemed to be a lot of empty hulls
when I had neighbor combine it for
me.
Drouth Resistant
I wasn't too sure whether it had
become well enough rooted to come
back the next spring. To prove that
it can stand up under adverse con-
ditions, it did make good stand
last spring. I moved the new stand
last summer as much to get rid of the
weeds as for any other reason. There
seemed to be a good stand all over
the field
The old seeding has given me g
crop every year since 1948 The
1949 crop was not too large, but
there were about 100 pounds Of
cleaned seed altogether.
This year I cut the crop with {
binder and because of wet weather
it had 20 stand in the shock unit
the first of October before it wa:
threshed. The heads became brittle
and broke badly when we picked i
up. After cleaning had 100 pounds
of No. seed and 81 pounds of No.
