director of the soil conservation

The story:
“Farmers want research informa
tion, and when public agencies lack
the funds to provide it, the farmers
often will put “cash on the barrel
head” to get it, provided they have
an organization to tackle the job.
For example, in northeastern
Montana, research with summer fal
low practices and Ullage methods
was kept alive after 1947 when a
shortage of funds made it necessary
for the established research agen
cies to terminate the project.
Supervisors of the Froid and Cul
bertson-Bainville, Reserve and
Mona--Anes soil conservation dis
tricts stepped into the breach, sup
plied the necessary money and
saved the continuity of the tests, the
eleventh year of which was con
chuled last fall. Later the Daniels
soil conservation district added its
support, so that today all five north*
eastern Montana soil conservation
district are helping to maintain the
research.
So far, the tests have determined
conclusively that subsurface tillage
in addition to strip cropping is
needed on the lighter soil of tho
area to protect the fallowed land
from wind erosion and give the
sloping fallowed land a satisfactory
degree of protection from water
erosion during the hard, dashing
rains that occur.
The period of the tests, however,
has not been long enough to deter
mine whether the various types of
tillage will have any effect on the

land, and if so. which combination
of practices will provide the most
satisfactory erosion control and crop
production.
Start of this research came in 1939.
when the soil conservation service
and the Montana agricultural ex
periment station entered into agree
ment for the study of erosion con
trol practices in the Treasure state.
Northeastern Montana was one of
the areas chosen for the wind ero
sion control studies and, through
local SCS technicians and the local
county agent, the use of land on the
Moen brothers’ farm near Culbert
son was procured.
Under the arrangement, the Moen
brothers supplied the seed grain for
the part of the land put to crop,
paid the harvesting costs and re
ceived the crop, with the exception
of the grain taken from random
sampling areas for computation pur
poses. The soil conservation service
seeded the crop and did the neces
sary tillage work, and the state ex
periment station personnel assisted
in gathering the samples and han
dling the computations. Torlief As
sheim of SCS research staff has
been in charge of the project, with
the exception of the years 1943-45
‘ when he was in the armed services.
I Ralph J. Cline, now with the South
Dakota state sollege, was in charge
during that time.
The land was divided into 10-by
-48-rod strip plots so that several
methods of fallow could be studied
along with some systems of con
tinuous cropping. Thus, the experi
ments progressed for eight years—
only long enough to make a good
i start. So. when research funds were
insufficient to continue the project
। past 1947. the supervisors of tne soil
! conservation districts stepped in.
They felt a definite need for the in-
I formation being developed, pro-
I vided the necessary money, and
. saved the project. Moen brothers
also increased their contribution.
Gerald Olson, of the Culbertson-
Bainville soil conservation district
supervisors, remarked, “The Moen
demonstration farm is a highly es
sential project that effectively serv
es the soil conservation districts in
their educational program. It has
brought about advancements and
extension of soil conservation tillage
practices among the farmers in this
spring wheat area. I have adopted
for my own farm some of the meth
ods proven practical at the demon
stration farm. I am now using stub
ble-mulch tillage for my summer
fallow program.
Even the implement man spoke
up. John Simard, farmer and imple
ment dealer at Bainville, believes
“we should have more such demon
stration farms. All farmers and im
plement dealers should have an op
portunity to observe the newest til
lage methods. A good job has been
done through tours and publicity.”
Thus, co-operation between the
Montana agricultural experiment
station and extension service, the
soil conservation service, and the
soil conservation districts, backed

Favored Glasgow Team Makes 11th
Wolf Point Diamond Win of Season
Wolf Point added its eleventh
win Sunday in a 5-1 victory over
Glasgow to make up for a prev
defeat at the hands of the Glasgow
Vets. The Vets were rated favorites
£° r the game, after winning a <lOll
- two weeks ago over the
Great Falls Air Base team.
Wolf Point scored first in the
second inning with a double by
Lefty Jensen. A single by Mc-
Nett brought in Jensen. The
Wolves scored twice in the sec
ond, once In the fifth and two
In the eighth.
Capable pitching bv Lennie Loen
dorf held the Vets to seven hits and
the visitors did not score until the
ninth for their one nri Glasgow
threatened In the first when a
double play by Johnn' Bind at,
the district supervisor- made this
venture possible.
But more than that has been ac
complished. This is no demonstra
tion by outsiders for these farmers—
it is their experimental project.
That they feel this way i- evident
from their discussions when they
visit it. And visit they do —the
formal tours draw 500 or more,
many from long distances, and
throughout the season there are
visits by many farmer- who are
keeping an eye on the progress
of tne tests and comparing current'
observations there with their own
operations.
