One Affects All-The fact that
some Latin American countries
have liberalized their tourist re-
uuirements has not aided general
travel throughout the area, Mr.
Simmons holds. He says:
"The simplicity Of the tourist
travel must. unfortunately. suffer
by the restrictions placed by any
one Of several Of the countries
through which the tourist plans
his trip, since each country on his
route must be considered individ-
ually.
Very little has been done to
encourage travellers. Over the
past few years. there have been
numerous meetings of internation-
al organizations in an attempt to
standardize and simplify the docu-
ments required by the Latin Amer
lean countries for tourists. How
ever, none Of these conferences has
succeeded.
II feel it is now up to the Latin
American countries to decide
whether or not they want to en-
courage North American tourism
and that, if they do, my sugges-
ton would be that they call a
Congress of all the Latin American
countries, and for them, and them
alone. to decide on a standard and
simplif1ed tourist document.

countries want to prevent undesir-
able persons from entering the
country. However, ! think that

Notebook
By Joeques Futfelle. Jr.
The Stars Trovsl Editor

When American tourists de-
scend In droves on a foreign land
year after year. they tend to
change the character of the coun-
try. Like water wearing away q
stone. they hammer on and ding
at an idea of service, custom or
practice until 1t is adopted, at
least in a modified form. Yet too
easy q qualification Of American
tourist whims can ruin the for
Ieign appeal Of a country by Amer
icanizing it too fast and too much.
With thousands Of United States
tourists going to Europe each year.
thoughtful Americans might won-
der why they have not thus spoiled
Europe. They haven't, and part
lof the reason is that Americans
are a small percentage of tourists
that visit, for instance, France.
Although they have given in to
some American tourist ways and
ideas. the French have not had to
compromise much to keep their
tourist trade at a high pitch. Too
much change to satisfy the Amer
ican might ALLEVIATE tourists from
other countries.
X Il 4 4
Europe Likes Tourists-Over the
years. France could have changed
not one whit and still have
offered distinct appeal to Amer
lean tourists. France has tourism
cit" All European countries pos
sess that alluring quality in various
degrees. And it is their privilege
to determine how best and how far
to appease the American tourist,
If. indeed. they want him at all.
Fortunately for those who like
to become acquainted with various
parts Of the world, Europe wants
the American and his tourist dol
lar. and has slashed away red
tape to induce him to come.
Virtually the only thing he needs
now Is a United States passport
and the means Of travel.
But it is not that easy for re-
creational travel within many
South American countries, and
that has a great deal to do with
the fact that only about l per
cent Of the number of Americans
who go to Europe visit the Latin
continent to the south.
There is no apparent fear that

cials are fully aware than an un-
desirable traveller can and will en-

the casual American traveller will
so modify South American life as
to become obnoxious. Nevertheless,
red tape barriers against the
tourist are formidable, whether
or not 1t is their purpose to dis
courage him.
\ II 4 Il
Hesitancy Found Warranted
This red tape situation was
pointed up In q recent survey made
by A. L. Simmons, president Of
the American Society Of Travel
Agents. Also founder Of one Of
the worlds largest travel agencies.
Mr.. Simmons recently made q trip
through South America to deter
mine II more tourists could not
be induced to visit those pictur-
|esque lands.
He doesn't want to foist travellers
from the United States onto the
countries. but feels that If they
want to encourage tourism from
North America, they must stand
ardize and simplify tourist red
tape. In his view, it is up to the
countries themselves to decide how
far they should go in promoting
this trade.
Mr.. Simmons travel organiza-
tion has specialized on all-expense
tours, both conducted and inde-
pendent. He has concentrated on
tours to Europe. In turning his
attention to South America. he
hopes to develop tours in that di-
|rection. On his personal inspec-
tion. however. he found that the
United States tourist "has good
reason for his hesitancy to come
to South America"
Long Check List-Mr. Simmons
conclusions follow in part:
Those reasons (for not going
to South America) are the COM
Iplicated and numerous regulations
|set up by the various Central and
South American countries. which
discourage the average traveller.
ITO give you an idea of what
these complications are. this is the
list of documents which had to
have prepared in order to make
the trip: .
valid passport. smallpox certif-
Iicate, tourist cards, general health
lcertif1cate.
"Also. letter Of recommendation
from the airline confirming my
status as bona flde tourist, certifi-
cate establishing my financial re-
,sponsibility, police certificate in
Guiding fingerprints, which all
law-abiding citizens resent; IL
photographs, visaes.
Most Of these documents re-
quired my personal appearance at
various offices and at various con-
Isulates for visaes. Most consulates
insist on certain limited hours of
the day. and request the traveller
to leave his passport with them

Farm, Ranch Experiences
VIII StubbIe Mulch -.
Tillage Is Easier
ByW. LESTER MCMILLAN, Rieblend County
WnbSubble Mulch
ByW. LESTER MCMILLAN, Ricblend County

S. Ample implement clearance
makes burning of stubble unneces-
sary.
6. Stubble retained on top of the
ground holds the winter snow.
Z. Stubble mulch is more eco
nomical than black fallow because
blades pull easier and tractors OPP
crate at a greater rate of speed.
The main disadvantages are that
it is somewhat harder to get weed
seeds worked into the ground for
sprouting and it is harder to get
weed kills in damp wet weather.
It is my belief that little trouble
will be experienced if the fallow is
cared for at the time it should be.
I believe less trouble from wild
oats on my farm is a direct result
of stubble mulching.
The first trip over fallow with a
blade should be before the growth
gets rank. Weed plant kill is greatest
at this time and best results are to
be had on clear, warm day. Sub
sequent working of the ground
should be done under the same con-
ditions.
On ground covered with so much
stubble that a rod weeder wouldn't
work, I got perfect kill on pigeon
grass by covering the field twice in
one week when the sun was hot.
The steep pitched weeder blade was
used of course.
1 have found that these blades are
sufficiently strong to Withstand
gravel and rocky conditions, and
when weighted down they prepare a
good seed bed in gravel soils.
It is to be emphasized that, as in
other systems of fallow, good re-
suits cannot be obtained unless the
work is done at the proper time.
Subsurface tillage can't put mois-
ture into the ground but it can
preserve it if weed plants don't take
it away. At the same time top soil
is saved from wind and water ero-
sion for your boy and mine.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1952-02-01

IN JUNE, 1913, I bought my blade,
a subsurface tiller. That year a part
of my ground was plow fallow and
part bladed fallow. Moisture tests
that fall by the Soil Conservation
service gave the stubble mulch the
nod. The same was true by COM
parison for last season.
This spring with an abundance of
fall and winter moisture to begin
with, practically all of my crop was
seeded on stubble mulch ground.
The carry-over of stubble from the
good crop of 1850 was very heavy;
however, this spring the stubble
was so brittle that neither the duck
foot nor the disc had any trouble
in preparing the ground for the
double disc press drill.
The first seeding this spring was
April II. Except for IL acres of
green wheat my harvest was COM
pleted on Aug. %. Yield on the
stubble mulch ground ran between
1874 and 241s bushels per acre. This
return was very satisfactory and to
the best of my knowledge equal to
that on land using any other sys-
tenn in my community.
From records kept for the soil
conservation department on the
farm, between the dates mentioned
above, 1872 inches of moisture was
recorded. Ample beginning moisture
and cool weather made an ideal con-
dition for small grain.
From my experience and observa-
ton I would say that trashy fallow
or stubble mulch pays off in the
following ways:
!. Fields definitely will not wash
as much in rain and spring runoff.
2. Stubble on top of the ground
makes for less evaporation.
3. No top soil will blow from the
field after stubble mulch farming
is started.
4. Foul seeds are not covered
deeply as in moldboard blowing thus
preventing late surprise crop from
spring moisture.

Paul Bunyan's Blue OK
Couldn't Do Better

EVEN PAUL BUNYAN could do
no better at plucking trees out of
the ground than the two diesel
track-tractors pictured here at work
on the Dick Nelson farm, Valley
county. A Pinch cable strung be-
tween the two tractors does the job.
A hydraulic hay stacker on a
lighter tractor is used to lift the
cable well up on the tree trunk.
Then the cable is frightened up and
the tree starts bending. The tap
root snaps out and a good many of
the heavy limbs are broken off as
the tree strikes the ground and the
cable is pulled the length Of the
tree. The resulting hole is amaz-
ingly small and no stump is left.
The trees are then pushed over the
nearby river bank by using the
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1952-02-01

dozer blades on the big tractors.
Dozens of the large cottonwood
trees on some 100 acres of Milk
River valley farmland, owned by
Dick Nelson and John David, were
cleared off the land using this easy
and quick method. The clearing is
''fill-in" work for the operators and
tractors when not busy with other
farm jobs that include building
water spreading bikes for an ex-
tensive flood irrigation system
The automatically controlled dozer
blades on the tractors also come
in handy for clearing sage brush,
Dick Nelson found. The practice is
to wait until the ground is well
frozen IN the winter and then
scrape off the brush like a Paul
Bunyan razor.
