Of the west has proven invaluable
to the ranchers. These reseeded
ranges provide excellent forage and
at the same time stop erosion on
abandoned plowed land and deter
iorated range lands. Flood danger
is also limited by reseeding in the
mountains and foot hills.
About 100000 of the vests de
teriorated range acres have been
reseeded since the mid-193Os. crest
ed. wheatgrass has been used on a
large portion of this acreage and,
under Montana conditions, it has
proven to be one of the best types
of grass for reseeding use.
1t is a drought-resistant grass
and can stand extremely low temp
eratures. In experiments conduct
ed near Havre at the Montana
Agricultural Experiment station,
nearly all species Of grasses other
than crested wheatgrass were win
ter-killed.
The ability of crested wheatgrass
to compete with weeds for soil
moisture is another important point
in its favor. AS forage, crested
wheatgrass provides an excellent
supplement to natural grasses and
is palatable to all classes of live
stock Being available as early as
mid-Apri it affords valuable green
lambing and calving pastures and,
after a period of dormancy in sum-
mer, fall rains start additional
growth. Crested wheatgrass cut at
its.flowering stage will produce hay
equal to native grasses.
Grazing Values High
The grazing values of crested
wheatgrass have been proven ex-
tremely high. IN 1899, the u. S..
Range Livestock Experiment sta
ton near Miles City began series
of experiments on 46 acres of crest
ed wheat to find how well the grass
would stand grazing and to test its
ability to produce beef.
In II years of the test, the 40
acre plot was grazed an average Of
80 animal-unit days per acre per
year. The average beef production
was 80-5 pounds per acre per year.
This amount of grazing was pro-
baby too heavy and the grass show
ed some i'll effects. There was a
decrease in growth height; fewer
seed stalks showed, and toward the
last Of the period, the grass was
thinning and weeds began to show.
Actually, recommendation are, in
areas where weather conditions are
similar to those of eastern Montana,
that crested wheatgrass pastures
should be grazed slightly less than
one animal-unit month per acre
This will allow freedom for varying
the length and start of the grazing
period with weather.

Dear Mr.. Wedderburn: I read
your story in The Star of Sep
TENDER 81 with much interest
and concern. I must say that I
agree with everything you have
said and so well expressed. When
the photographers reach the
time when they believe they are
not able to judge their own ex-
hibits it is time they stop hav-
ing exhibits. To turn over the
judging to a group. who I am
afraid do not understand the
mediums used. is big mistake.
I question that painters would
submit to photographers judg-
ing their exhibits. I have often
expressed to groups that there
is no art in photography. or a
bucket of paint and brush.
or a chisel and a block of mar
BILE. The art in any product
must be the result of the mind
producing and not in the me-
diums used which are only the
means of expression. Some use
them with understanding and
others do not.
AS ever.

Mr.. Eaton used a 4 by S B. &
j. Press camera equipped with a
Heliar lens. The exposure was
made on a 4 by S Super Pan
Press film by means of two No. S
flash bulbs. The lens was set at
f:18, the shutter being synchro-
nized, yielding an approximate
exposure of 1/100 second. Both
film and print were developed
with Eastman MO. developer
D72. The print was made on
Indiatone paper.
Analysis by Harry B. Shaw of
the society: This striking por-
trait of a young girl is an
unusually fine example of flash
light portraiture. Although the
principal lighting was placed
rather high and only a short
distance to the left of the
camera. the features are strong
ly modelled and produce a shad-
ow under the chin that is rather
too heavy. Apparently the sec
ond flashbulb was directed
against the ceiling to create
diffused fill-in light. The flash
was so rapid that the irises Of
the models eyes had not had
time to contract by reflex
action.
The quality of the original
print is excellent, with rich
vigorous tones extending over
the full range of the paper.
Possibly the portrait has been
printed rather too dark for the
best rendering Of the features
of young girl. The posing of
the model and the framing OF
the portrait are quite good.
Obviously the subject was posed
at a sufficient distance from the
background to give such an i'm
preston OF space and atmos-
phere as to produce an almost
three dimensional quality. 1t
may be noted, too. that the
corners of the print have been
slightly burned-in thus focusing
attention upon the face.

The great climax of the Revo-

forms the climax also of this

It was a climax heightened

points out, hung on a "wretched
