Lycan. so is a GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY TO CONDUCT EXPERIMENTAL STATIONS By Co-operation With Farmers of Montana Will Carry on Important Experiments The Great Northern Railway pro poses to put into effect a plan where by the farmers of Montana, located along its lino, can demonstrate the adaptability of the soil for various kinds of crops. The plan was orig inated by Mr. L. W. Hill, President of the Great Northern Railway, and the various commercial clubs and local development organizations of Montana have been invited to cor respond with Mr. E. C. Leedy, Gen ; MR. J. J. HILL eral Immigration Agent, Great North ern Railway, St. Paul, Minnesota, and suggest the names of three or four of the best farmers located ad jacent to their respective towns for the purpose of enabling the railroad representatives to select one of the farmers who is in a position to give the matter proper attention. The work will be carried on under the jurisdiction of Professor Thomas Shaw, the well known agricultural and soil expert, who has already done so much toward disseminating valu able information relative to the pro ductivity of Montana's unmatched soil. The general outline of the plan is as follows: (1) Each farmer who engages in such experimental work will furnish where possible, six acres of land which has been summer fallowed the previous year or that has grown a cul tivated crop. (2) He shall grow on two acres of the same as he may elect, one acre of each of the following crops: Durum spring wheat; spring rye; oats or white hul less barley. The third acre is to be sown to field peas, one half to be put in with the grain drill, and the other half to be drilled in rows and cul tivated. The fourth acre is to be planted to corn. The fifth acre is to be planted, one half to field beans and the other half sown to alfalfa. The sixth acre is to be sum mer-fallowed and sown to winter wheat. (3) When new breaking only or part stubble can be furnished, the first acre is to be sown to flax, the second to alfalfa, the third planted to corn and the fourth to field beanB. The two remaining acres are to be summer-fallowed, and one of them sown to winter wheat and the other to winter rye. (4) The above crops are to be grown at the expense of the farmer, but from seed fur nished free by the Great Northern Railway. The grower is to harvest and thresh the crop at his own expense, and in due time he is to furnish to the railroad an accurate statement of yields. The farmer retains the crop. (5) The Great Northern Railway is to pay the farmer $10.00 per acre for each acre of land so used. Don't advise the preacher how to preach—help him and he will preach better.

An active young salesman—(who, by the way,makes a fine appearance,) very politely inquired if anyone was waiting on the lady . With one of her sweetest smiles she said ; "Why my dear boy, I was waited on twenty years ago." ( 6 ) The crops are to be grown subject to the instructions given by Professor Thomas Shaw. Professor Shaw will issue instruc tions regarding the best methods to follow in preparing the soil for the crop and also the proper methods to be used in cultivating the growing i crops and will either in person or by ! a representative visit the farmers 1 chosen to carry out these expert- 1 ments, for the purpose of co-operat ing with them and assisting them to get the best results. It is expected there will be considerable rivalry among the various localities to see who can make the best showing. The great interest taken by progressive farmers and by the local develop ment organizations in Montana, has been a great stimulus In creating a greater and deeper interest in the possibilities of Montana as an agri cultural state. The success of Mon tana exhibitors at the Billings Dry Farming Congress and at the Na tional Corn Show, Omaha, has been a potent factor in opening the eyes of the people of the state and the nation to the wonderful possibilities of Montana's fertile soil. Plans are already under way by many communities, to send exhibits to a number of the state and national agricultural shows held outside of Montana next year, in order to fur ther convince the world that Mon tana is "long on wealth but short on farmers." This movement which the Great Northern Railway is about to launch, is the first of its kind in this country and from a practical educational standpoint will be of untold value to our farmers. While we have state and national experimental stations the idea of operating an experimental station at nearly every important point along its line, is a new one and far in advance of anything of this nature that has ever been attempted before. PROFESSOR THOMAS SHAW Who Will Supervise the Experiments Let us hope that Montana farmers will appreciate this proposition and enter into it with the same degree of interest and enthusiasm that the rail road officials and Professor Shaw are showing. We have good farmers in every community and their success has been an inspiration and a help to others, but suçh work has been car ried on entirely at their own expense. Under the plan proposed by the Great Northern officials whereby the seed is furnished free, the use of the ground is paid for and the resulting crop reverts back to the farmer him self, there is no reason why those who are selected to carry on the work should not give it their very best care and attention. Full information relative to the proposition can be secured by ad dressing Mr. E. C. Leedy, General Immigration Agent, Great Northern Railway, St. Paul, Minnesota, or Professor Thomas Shaw, Great North ern Building, St. Paul, Minnesota. It is amusing to watch the aver age boy start to learn his trade. One week's work and he knows he will make a success. At the end of the second week he graduates. Another week and he knows more about the business than his em ployer and makes up his mind to have things run to suit him. Then by the middle of the next week he is loafing the streets, by invitation, and telling people how ignorant and how foolish that fellow is who owns that store, shop or office down the street. Do such hoys ever own a dollars' worth of property? Hardly. A few minutes delay in treating some cases of croup, even the length of time it takes to go for a doctor often proves dangerous. The safest way is to keep Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the house, and at the first indication of croup give the child a dose. Pleasant to take and always cures. Sold by all dealers.
