 Several people have written to the News-Mlner to protest the fact that we printed editorials from other papers criticzing the Universty's commencement exercise. While respect the right of these people to entertain their opinions the letters indicate that some confusion exists as to the NeWs-Mner feeling about the exercise. So we are going to make our stand clear.

 Regardless of Achesons English zorebears, however, part of this failure is probably more due to the fact that the State Department has been so bounded by Senatorial critics that it is punch-drunk and timid If it makes any peace moves, for instance, it immediately gets tagged with the appeasement label.

Farm Methods
Buckralse wastes Hay

SEVEN YOUNG farmers, five
from Denmark, one from New Zea-
land and one from Norway, are
working on Montana farms and
ranches this summer for training in
American agricultural methods.
Each trainee has. been assigned to
a farm family that is engaged in the
type of farming or livestock produce
ton in which he is interested. He
will also be introduced to the activi-
ties Of the community so that he may
get true picture of rural life in
this country. The program is spon-t
sored by the Economic Cooperation
administration with cooperation of
the. extension service and the U. S.
department. Of agriculture.
The trainees from Denmark and
the families they are living with
while in the state are H. H. Knud-
sen on the Esger Mikkelsen farm at
Lewistown, Knud Jensen with the
Don Tavenner family at Deer Lodge,
Carl Lund with the Elmer Olson
family at Stanford, Erik Johansen
with the Arthur Hansen family at
Sidney and Owe Staun with the L.
H. Andersons at Conrad.
Maurice Moffat. an international
farm youth exchange delegate from
New Zealand, is living and working
with the W. W. Carr family near
Creston. Knut Frogner, trainee
from Norway, is on the Kenneth
Role farm near Billings.

Making silage
Without Silos

IF YOU DON'T have a silo of any
kind just pile your grass sflage on
the ground.
That's what farmers in Iowa farm
ers are reported to be doing and
several seasons Of experience have
proved the procedure to be success
full there.
First they level off an area of
ground, leaving it slightly high in
the center for good drainage. Then
they pile the silage on this area
making a rick of any length or width
they want and about IL feet high.
The important thing, they say, is to
pack the silage well by running over
it with at frequent intervals with
tractor or truck.
When the pile is completed thew
cover it over with a couple of inches
Of dirt-heat from silage keeps dirt
from freezing even at 20 below
and that's that.
The above-ground piles keep wen
and are easy to feed from, the farm
ers report.

How Much Is In a Stack
OF Chopped Dry Hay?

with a 24-foot overthrow the calcula-
ton would be like this: 17x40x24x 10
divided by 27O equals 11.48 tons.
Buckralxe Wastes Hay
A surprising revelation as to the
wastefulness Of handling alfalfa hay
with sweeprake came to light as
result of the tests to establish meth
DDS Of measuring stacks Of chopped
hay to determine tonnage.
When the stacks were weighed it
was found that the long hay stack
weighed nearly tons less than the
chopped hay stack. A careful check
showed tn, moisture content of the
hay in the two stacks to be the same,
so the only conclusion possible was
that the difference was due to extra
SCATTERING as the hay was hauled to
the stack by the rake.
At $50 ton this loss would
amount to $40 for half the field or
$50 if the entire field had been
gathered by buckrake. Since most Of
the loss was of leaves, the feed loss
would be more serious than the mere
tonnage would indicate.

HERE IS a. formula worked out
by the Colorado A & NJ college for
measuring the number of tons in
stack of chopped dry alfalfa hay.
Tonnage equals width x length x
overthrow x percentage factor di-
vided by 30 fcubic feet per toni.
Here's the method used to arrive at.
the formula:
A S2-acre field of alfalfa was cut
and single windrowed. When cured
it was stacked, with two outfits
working simultaneously. Every other
windrow was gathered as long hay
and taken to the stacker with
power sweep rake and each alternate
row was chopped and hauled to the
stacker in truck. One stack of each
type of hay was made. The stacks
were measured for estimates of
weight and then hauled to scales
and checked.
The field chopped hay was found
to have a. density of go cubic feet
per ton, but it was found that errors
in calculation resulted from differ
ences of width 1t was necessary to
work out percentage factors to vary
the overthrows with the widths.
Here are the factors for various
