samples and have them tested be-
cause the results of the analysis
will be available for study and
planning we'll ahead of the time
when the fertilizer will be APP
piled.
Checking ON the amount of nu-
trients contained in the soil is just
like keeping track of how much
money you have in the bank.
The soil test is a fertility gauge
for your farm. 1t tells you these
important things: /. How much
and what major plant nutrient
you have in your soil; 2. what kind
of fertilizer is needed; 3. how
much fertilizer you need; and f..
where you need it.
The County Extension Office
has the information sheet that
must be filled out when a soil
sample is sent to the laboratory
for testing. we will be glad to
provide directions on the correct
way of doing the job.
A soil sample that is representa-
tive of the area is especially i'm
portant since a test can only be
as accurate as the sample.

ERGOT IN GRAIN

Growing conditions this year
seemed to favor the development
of ergot in small grains. We would
TO warn growers and others who
feed grain to livestock to be on
the alert for this fungus growth in
feed grains.
Ergot is a fungus growth that
attacks rye barley, wheat and
oats. In mature grain ergot is a
hard, dark colored growth that re-
places n or more of the kernels
in the head. A cool, moist grow
ing season favors the development
Of ergot.
Ergot infected grain is especial
~ dangerous when fed TO bred
sowS. AS little as one-tenth of one
percent ergot in feed grain will
cause death losses in baby pigs
and lack of udder development in
the sow. Dairymen have also G
ported declines in milk production
when COWS were fed grain con-
tanning ergOt.
While ergot may be partially re-
moved by a tanning mill or other
types of grain cleaning machines,
il is safer TO avoid feeding any err
got infected grain TO pregnant an
finals, producing dairy COWS or
poultry.

got, see Extension Circular 201,

RETRIEVING OF THAWED
FOODS

When a frozen food thaws in
your home, it's not always neces-
Sary to discard it.
You may consider refreezing the
food if its temperature hasn't
risen above ordinary refrigerator
temperature Gao degrees F., and
has IN acceptable odor, texture
and color.
The refreezing process in itself
is no hazard. If the partially thaw-
ed food is safe to eat, it's safe to
~refreeZe.
Here are some facts about re-
freezing from the USDA's agricul-
tural research service and other
agencies.
A rise in a foods temperature
UP to thawing impairs color. fla
vor, and texture, and the refreez-
ing period causes further loss in
quality. If the total time invol-
we'd is short enough, there may be
enough quality left to justify re-
freezing.
No health hazard is involved il
the temperature of the food hasn't
risen above ordinary refrigerator
temperatures. Food-poisoning bac-

SEEDING


Since late fall is recommended
as one of the best times to plant
permanent dryland pastures, we
would like to remind ranchers
that one of the most common
causes for failure to obtain stands
is seeding too deeply.
This has been demonstrated in
tests to compare the percentage
emergence of plants when seeds
were planted at various depths.
For example, crested wheat
grass planted at one-half inch deep
had go percent emergence as COM
pared to only As percent at one
and one-half inches and zero per
cent at three inches. Sizes of the
seed is the key to proper depth Of
planting.
Small seed such as orchard
grass and most legumes should be
planted one-fourth inch deep or
less. Medium size seed like crest
ed wheatgrasS should be planted
nc more than one-half inch deep.
For large seed such as intermed-
late wheatgrasS the maximum
planting depth is one inch.
It's also important to have a
firm, well packed seeded that is
free of plants that compete for
moisture. 1t is best to seed with
a grass drill or a disk type grain
drill equipped with depth regula-
tor bands.
Your County Extension Office
has information on pasture species
adapted to this area.

NEW PUBLICATIONS ON
FARM

Two new publications in the
area of farm economics have been
published by Montana State Col
lege and copies are now available
at the County Extension Office.
One is a bulletin published by
the Cooperative Extension Ser
vice at MISC and entitled "How
Much is Land WORTH" The pub
LEGATION is designed to help farm
erS, rancherS, and others in APP
preaching the problem of evaluat-
ing land. 1t discusses in detail and
gives examples of the income ap-
proach and the market data APP
proach in evaluating land as well
as the factors that determine
trends in land values.
The other publication is a cir
cular published by the Montana
Agricultural Experiment Station
entitled Seeding Cropland to
Grass - Does 1t Pay?". It discuss
eS the various costs involved and
how to figure them and also takes
UP the problem of estimating in
come from grassland. Three bud
get forms are included to help the
reader determine whether it will
pay him to put cropland into grass.
PRE-MEASURED DETEGENTS
One of our new products for
laundering is that of pre-mea-
sured detergents. They are found
in tablets or in poly vinyl solu-
BILE packets, which dissolve in the
water
What are some of the features
of using pre-measured de~tergents?
Ease of use, no measuring neces-
sary, no mess of spill-overs, thus
no spill cleanup problems. These
pre-meaSured products contain
the amount of detergent which is
necessary to clean the clothing
thoroughly. 1t is a known fact,
found through research and sur
veys, that the average homemaker
doesn't use enough detergent in
her washer to do an effective
cleaning Job.

CLEANING AND OILING OF

lint.
Always remove dust, lint, and
threads before oiling any part OF

The Style Is Classic

ATHENS (AP) - Instead of try
ing to invent something new in
fashion, Greece is trading on its
classic culture to develop a haute
couture which is uniquely its own.
Recently the first fashion show
was held with 10 cOuturiers and
27 weaving firms participating and
with the Queen Frederika and her
daughters in attendance.
The show is the result of new
organization set up to develop
handwoven fabrics among the ma
tional handicrafts The National
Orga alton of Handicrafts
gathered Greek traditional designs
of the last few centuries, sifted,
selected and channeled them into
practical use.
Costumes made from the hand
woven material were fashioned in
to winter sport wear, as well as
dresses to be worn in the early
winter months.
The queen bought several num-
bers But it was never made known
whether any Of the selections made
by the Queen were for the trous-
