FOREST LINOS

Washington during 1016, according t(
figures compiled by the Portland of
flee of the United States forest ser
vice. Douglas fir, noble fir, westeri

MONTANA ILL
CONTRIBUTE
t i, •» i
*
(By Associated Press)
BOZEMAN, Mont., April 30.—There
are millions of acres of fertile land In ,
Montann which still have been un
touched by a plow according to L. B.
I,Infield, director of the Montana ex
periment station. The cultivation of
this huge area would be a signal aid
to the nation in the present crisis, ac
cording to Mr. I.infield. He says:
“Montana Is a long way from any
probable scene of war. We have little •
fear from the presence of an armed
enemy, therefore, all the more reason
why we should do our part in the
work of the nation. With millions of
acres of fertile land yet untouched by
the plow a proper organization and
the use of the forces available for the
work would increase by a large per
contage the agricultural production of
the state. This at present Is a vital
need of the nation, and a place where
Montana can help.
"Our latest agricultural contribution
I will be for man. While breadstuff
must have first place, yet there must
be no curtailment in the supply of
live stock and live stock products.
Again, there are many industries in
the country that depend on the farm
er for their raw material while leather,
wool and fibre, all farm products, are
needed to provide the clothing of the
nation, and this must not he forgotten.
We should plan to use all our resour
ces and let nothing go to waste that
may be used to increase the crops of
the farm, its live stock and live stock
products.
“1 hope no farmer is so selfish as to
neglect to do his share for fear that
present prices will come down.”
