Managing Ranch Farm
Dry Climate, Fourth Class Soil,
But the County Produces Wheat
By MONT H. SAUNDERSON

"chiseP' type of tillage implements
get all of the moisture down into
the soil. Such tillage, along with the
alternate crop and fallow strip CROP
ping, also protects the topsoil from
the wind. The use of the chemical
helps save the topsoil from wind ero-
sion by limiting the need for surface
cultivation. Today's large-sca1e till
age and cropping equipment also
lowers operating costs, especially
where used efficiently in large-scale
farm units.
One might wonder whether a part
of the success of dryland agriculture
on these lands might not be due
to favorable weather situation in
the past 10 years or so. The weather
information denies any such an eff
feet. For the period 1940-1952, the
precipitation average for the wealth
er. stations in the county is almost
exactly the same as the long run
average.
Wheat Price Factor
The wheat price trend and situa-
ton is, of course, factor that we
must not overlook or discount in the
success of dryland agriculture on
these lands. Let's examine the trend
of the Montana average wheat price
per bushel from 1941 through the
past year. This is given below:
Montana auararrn ,.rl,nn+
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1954-04-01


fact that l have illustrative materi-
ais from this particular county is
entirely incidental The analysis and
conclusions which am here present
ing come mainly from observations
and work with agriculture in all of
the western states and over quite
period of years.
According to the us. Weather
Bureaus published weather statis-
tics, this county is the driest of the
counties Of this area. The long-run
average annual precipitation for the
local weather stations is around 10
or IL inches. Such arid land would
be distinctly sub-marginal for dry
land crop production were it not for
the fact that most of the years mois-
ture fall is during the growing sea-
son. Station records show that rs
per cent of the annual moisture fall
comes during the months April
through September.
Even so, such lands were until
rather recently regarded as marginal
for dryland crop production. The
US. Geological Survey report for
the county does not show any land
classed as farm land. The Montana
State College soil survey report for
this county shows the lands that are
classed as farm lands mostly as
fourth class, with probable wheat
yield of 8 to IL bushels per acre for
alternate crop and fallow practice.
Most of the Joplin Loan soils of the
county, the main crop land soil, are
shown as fourth-class farm lands.
Favorite Factors
Now, most of these lands are in
dryland wheat production. They
have, in recent years, been selling
at prices ranging from $25 to $50 per
acre, without improvement. A COM
bination of factors working together
in recent years have placed these
lands distinctly above the economic
margin for dryland agriculture.
These lands have a kind of soil be-
longing to the group known to soil
science as the brown soils. Their col
or, as an index to their fertility and
productivity, is intermediate be-
tween the grayish soils of the deserts
and the dark-brown soils of the prai-
ries. The brown soils are those that
have formed in moderately arid
climate under short grass vegeta-
ton in the plains and under a sage
brush and bunchgrass vegetation in
the intermountain west.
The brown topsoil of these lands
varies in depth from 4 inches to IL
inches, and at these depths the top
soil shades into the gray slime zone'
of the subsoil. These soils have as g
rule good mineral fertility, but they
are limited in the organic fertility.
Modern Tillage
Now, over the west, the lands Of
the brown soils support flourishing
agriculture, where only few short
years ago they were thought to be
definitely marginal for any such use
Aside from the wheat price trenc
and situation of the past 10 years
probably the number one factor il
this change has been the universal
adoption, in western dry-land agri
culture, of the modern tillag,

This price picture is, of course, one
of the factors in the success of the
dryland agriculture for the "12
bushel lands" That is the county's
average wheat yield per harvested
acre for the recent years, 1914
through 1852, according to the USDA
published crop statistics.
The same source shows the county
average wheat yield for non-irrigat-
ed wheat production to be the fol-
lowing for the same years for the
other counties of the area: Toole
County, Is bushels; Chouteau Coun-
ty, 20 bushels; Cascade County, 81
bushels; Hill County, IL bushels.

Senator Mccarthy, Republican.
of Wisconsin today asked the
Senate to cite Corliss Lamont,

and two others for contempt of
Congress.
He described the cases as test
ing the right of witnesses to re-
fuse to answer questions in con-

grounds other than the fifth
amendment.
In addition to Mr.. Lamont.
Senator Mccarthy asked cita-
tions against Albert Shadowitz,
a Nutley, N. j., electronics
worker, and Abraham Unger,
New York City lawyer.
Mr.. Shadowitz, in a public
hearing on December is, invoked
the name of Physicist Albert Elm
stein and cited the first amend
ment's guarantees of free speech
and association as reasons fol
refusing to answer questions.
Mr.. Lamont, on September %
had invoked the first amendment
in refusing to answer questions
about associations with alleged
Communists. He refused to pleaC
that his answer might tend tt

grounds. Senator Mccarthy con.
tends, on which witness may
refuse to give testimony.

did not invoke any amendment
but just did not answer questions
