An assorted lot of mountain peaks,

"Unwillingly" the railroad company

A Pig for Every School

If a plan which State Superintend-
ent II. A. Davee has in mind ever
gets to first base, every city and ru.
raj school in Montana will be fur
nished with a squealing porker, which
is to be fed by the pupils of those
respective schools, says the Helena
Independent.
Out in Oregon the Union Stock
Yards of Portland has offered to fur
nish, free of charge, a pig to every
rural and city school in Oregon and
Washington.
The only condition attaching to the
gift is the requirement that the school
accepting the pig must furnish to the
owners Of the stock yards, an exact
inventory of the cost of feeding said
porker, the kind of feed used, and
the cost of same, which information
is desired in order to ascertain which
is the best and cheapest feed pre-.
pairing the pig for market. OF course
the pig is to be shipped to the Port
land market.
State Superintendent Davee has
written to the management of the
stock yards, asking that Montana be
included in the gift. He believes the
plan of the stock yards company will
tend to stimulate interest in the coun.
try life movement which is now being
SO prominently discussed by educat.

Local Grain Quotations

Conrad Independent: Up until De-
cember first there had been fifty cars
more of grain shipped out from the
Conrad station than for cne same per.
iod last year. From this fact it is
taken that the grain shipments this
season will at least equal those of
last season, despite the much lower
per acre production this year. The
shipments started earlier this year
than last, however, and it may be that
the total will not be so great for the
entire shipping season.
