Winter wheats being tested at Montana State College field trial
Montana farmers cooperate with Montana State College to test winter wheat varieties for higher yield disease resistance and other advantages. Alfred Dufresne grows Montana 36 Karmont Turkey Red and Yogo side by side, with Moccasin Station data showing Yogo’s smut resistance and strong yield. If Dufresne’s results hold, more Yogo seed may be produced for Cascade County. R E Cameron notes the plots along the Belt highway north of the Turn Inn for public viewing.

Diesel Engines Use Cheap Fuel for Farm Power
A Montana Experiment Station test in 1933 compares a 50 horsepower Diesel tractor with a 50 horsepower gasoline tractor on the same implements and fields. Diesel fuel cost 6.5 cents per gallon versus gasoline at 17 cents. On a 3,000 acre farm, fuel use cost 308.49 for diesel and 1100.84 for gasoline. depreciation was 1761.49 for diesel and 1607.93 for gasoline. Overall operating cost favored diesel at 3795.06 versus 4405.21 for gasoline, with cash costs 51.7 percent lower and total costs about 14 percent lower with diesel. The study notes figures depend on local fuel prices but show diesel’s cost advantage.
