T. S. Underhill is wintering 100 calves
at his Springvale stock farm. He feeds
bran and cut wheat straw and says that
he never saw calves doing better. He
bought two carloads Of ground feed from
the mills last fall and by mixing a little
of this feed with straw he is enabled to
winter a large number of cattle and
horses at a small expense. The stock
thus fed thrives and Mr.. Underhill says
that he believes it to be a cheaper feed,
in the way he handles it, than prairie
hay.

Forum:-Representative Lish of Stark
is quite interested in the states of Mon
tana, and the two Dakotas' wolf bounty
law. His idea is to have the three states
enact a similar law-so there will be no
advantage to a man who takes a scalp
each state valuing them the same. Mr..
Lish impresses me that he believes a wolf
bounty a necessity and that the state
owes it to the western settlers to exter-
inmate these animals existing so largely
in cattle and sheep growing sections.

]. Crowley returned the first of the
week from Hebron where he delivered
to c. F. Missingham of Mandan rs re-
gistered Hereford calves, probably the
finest herd to be found in North Dakota.
The consideration was $4,000. Mr..
Crowley and sons have been breeding
thoroughbred Herefords for several
years on their farm near Broncho and
