generally IS to prepare himself for
10 career in engineering. law. busi-
mess. medicine. or some similar
line. He picks the school he thinks
best suits his purpose and which
win give him the best training.
Here is one boy who wants to be a
professional boxer and who picked
ibis school because of its boxing
coach and team.
He is Ronnie Rhodes, who came
jail the way from Abilene, Tex, to
ATTEND the University Of Mary
land and work under Coach
Heinie Miller. Miller isn't coach
there now, but one Of his pupils,
Frank Cronin. is, and Miller still
lacts in an advisory capacity, SO
the situation is much the same as
it was when Rhodes and his
father chose Maryland.
Hes Got Everything
Rhodes, q sophomore, Is Mary
lands 165-pounder. He's 10 years
iold and still growing, and he at
least will be a light heavyweight
and possibly q heavyweight be-
fore he is through school. Both
Miller and Cronin like his pros
Ipects Of becoming a professional
lighter. Hes got everything, /"
they say. He's q naturally clever
boxer and exceptionally fast. His
punch doesn't have all the power
Iit should, but his coaches are
working on that and expect him
to develop into Q very dangerous
iall-around man.
Billy Edwards. who manages a
number Of professional fighters
mere, has seen Rhodes work out
and Is very enthusiastic about the
boys prospects. Edwards already
wants to handle him when he
turns pro. Rhodes himself likes
the idea Of becoming profess
sional. "But only II I develop

American University Is three
games away from confronting the
lstrangest jinx In the Mason Dixon
conference.
In the IL years Of conference
history, no team which finished

In 1941. the first year Of con-

the tournament. In lo43, both
Washington College and Ran.
idolph- Macon had perfect records
up to the tournament. but that
was the year Of the astounding
upset by Gallaudet.
Catholic University won its IL
ular-season games In 1894, but
Mount st. Mary's captured the
championship, while the only

John DaGrosa told both boxers
that he had been asked by many
people. why this fight?"
Fighters Warned.
He reminded Marciano that he
had catapulated into heavyweight
boxing prominence with his knock
out Of 3T-year-old Joe Louis, the
old Brown Bomber. DaGrosa
mentioned that this same fading
Louis had unceremoniously Dump
ed Savold.
'You fellows will have to prove
to the public, why this flght?''
DaGrosa said. The commissioner
warned the fighters he would hold
up purses if it wasn't a good show.
It's q cinch the fight won't be
a turkey financially. A crowd of
$4,000 is expected to pay some
$90.000 to see the battle. Promoter
Herman Taylor is confident his
old gate record Of $85.41 for the
Bob Montgomery-Wesle Mouzon
fight in 1916 will be topped.
Marciano will receive 80 per cent
Of the gate, plus proportionate
share Of the $35. 900 being paid for
a National television and broad
cast rights. The Columbia Broad

Marciano, who has knocked out

resting since Sunday when he took
his final workout. The good look
ing New Englander is making no
predictions on the outcome al
though he said 1t probably
wouldn't 60 the limit. The Rock
has little to gain and everything
Ito lose In this bout. AS things now
stand, Marciano Is a cinch for a
heavyweight title fight by sum-
mer. A defeat would set him back
many months.
On the other hand, Savold has
nothing to lose. The one-time
British : recognized heavyweight
champion has seen his best days.

throughout the major crop areas of the state,
the new equipment and materials will sup
plement rather than replace the basic meth
ods and practices that have been developed
over the years. Chemicals will be a great
help in weed control and will reduce the
cost of tillage operations. Compounds that
may be found to stimulate the activity of
soil organisms may improve production
Fertilizers will bring greater yields where
mineral deficiencies exist. New tillage
equipment and improved methods of ham
ding straw will add to the efficiency of OPP
erations.
Along with the basic program of $3.50
summer tillage. some of these discoveries
have already contributed Importantly to a
more dependable production. They give the
plains farmer greater assurance of more sta
bic yields. They strengthen the founda-
ton upon which he is building an enduring
agriculture.

form of manure or commercial fertilizers
The thinner the soil the faster fertility
becomes problem. If you have been disap-.
pointed with yields in recent years chem
ical analysis of representative soil samples
may help to determine whether a mineral
deficiency is preventing maximum produc-
ton But in many cases more practical
way is to establish small test plots on your
farm. Apply phosphate on some and per-
haps nitrate fertilizer on other spots. If
the plants do much better on the treated soil
it may pay you to apply fertilizer more gen
orally. In some instances the application of
two or three dollars worth of mineral to
the acre has brought substantial improve
ment.
Your soil may not be deficient. If it is
reasonably deep and hasn't been farmed too
long it is probably still long on fertility. But
if you have reason to wonder, a little ex-
perimenting may bring surprising results
Even in Montana fertility won't last for
ever unless something is done to replace it.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-09-15
Fertility Doesn't Last Forever

HERE in Montana irrigation farmers have
IL been using fertilizer for many years.
Now some dryIand operators are finding
that it pays to add minerals. In most cases
the deficiency has been in phosphates. But
some growers in the Gallatin Valley and
elsewhere find that crops respond to treat
ment with nitrates
While mineral deficiencies are just begin
ming to show up on some Of our dryland
farms in Montana in areas where they have
been under cultivation the longest, loss of
fertility is already serious problem in
some of the other states of the Great Plains
region.
Experiments conducted at the Mandan
station in North Dakota showed that treat
ment with manure increased oats yields
about 60 per cent. And in Nebraska similar
applications raised potato yields more than
20 per cent. Other tests in Minnesota and
Kansas reveal that most farmers cannot
afford not to add minerals to the soil in the

Stabilizing DryIand Agriculture

program of fallow and crop pays out, there
are some exceptions.
Some growers whose land lies up near
the mountains where annual rainfall is
heavier than in most Of the plains region
derive comparatively little benefit from
following operations as far as moisture con-
servation is concerned. Then there are some
of the thin soil areas that can hold just so
much moisture. The soil may be rich in min
erals and the rainfall sufficient for crop
production in most seasons But where the
soil is too thin to hold more than one sea-
sons moisture there isn't much use trying
to make it hold two.
The regular benchland and plains farm
er, the grower in the foothills who gets more
rain than most, and the thin soil farmer,
can all benefit from the new equipment that
has become available, from the weed chemi-
Gals that are proving SO effective, and per
haps from some of the plant stimulants and
fertilizers. In some instances where the land
has been in sort of twilight zone between
tillage and straight cropping because of soil
or moisture conditions, the new develop
ments may make enough difference to re-
solve the question in favor of straight crop
ping
But for most of the dryland operators
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-09-15

ETNHERE have been so many developments
= in farming techniques, and in new equip
ment and in the growing field Of agricul-
tural chemistry in recent years that it is not
strange that some folks are beginning to
look at some of the old time honored prac-
tices with wondering eye.
To what extent have some of these new
things affected the need for methods that
have been considered basic in the past? Are
some of the old standbys no longer essen
tial? Or should some of the recent develop
ments be used to strengthen rather than
replace some of the practices that have
evolved from experiment and experience of
the past.
The answers depend largely on individu-
al situations and conditions. Experienced
operators have learned that generaizations
are often misleading. The secret of progress
is to adapt new things to old environments
Take summer tillage for instance. Dry
land operators throughout most of Mon
tana's major crop region learned years ago
that it pays to follow $3.50 summer til1age
program. This time-tested practice con-
serves moisture, helps to control weeds and
gives the soil organisms an opportunity to
make minerals available for plant growth

Plant breeders are making encouraging
progress in developing one-germ sugar beet
seed. By selecting the comparatively few
plants that produce seed with one germ and
crossing them with regular commercial va
rieties in order to fix the monogerm char
acter into the present high-yielding, disease
resistant multi-germ varieties they are Slows
~ producing a good quality seed with the
monogerm characteristic This process will
require several years of careful breeding
andselection but in time the breeders expect
to have an ample supply of one-germ seed.
This will mean the almost complete elimina-
ton OF the expensive thinning and blocking
operations. With mechanical harvesting
equipment already available this new seed
will be the final step in transforming sugar
beet production into a completely mecha-
nized operation.
Weather authorities anticipate that crop
conditions throughout most of the United
States may be somewhat less favorable for
the next few years than for the past IL
or 10. In fact most farmers expect the same
thing. Weather has been unusually satisfac-
tory in most Of the country since about 1888.
Good farming is likely to pay off more than
ever from now on Efficient use of the new
agricultural chemicals, and improved equip
ment plus superior know-how will help to
counteract any unfavorable weather Mother
Nature may have up her sleeve
Another farm equipment shortage ap-
pears to be shaping up as a result of the
recent steel strike. If you are going to need
any new equiun1ent next season better place
your order soon.
