FEEDING CALVES DRY GRAIN
Digestive Tract of Young Animals Is
Small and Giving Small Amounts
Often Is Favored.

In feeding skim milk calves the
grain needed to supply the missing
fat may be corn, barley, oats or mix
ture. Occasionally a feeder has skim
milk or alfalfa or clover hay on hand,
and to these he adds linseed meal,
cottonseed meal or gluten feed.
These are all high in protein, and
when any one of them is combined
with skim milk and alfalfa-both high
in protein-an unbalanced ration re-
suits and scours or other digestive
troubles follow.
The digestive tract of a calf is
small and frequent feeding of small
amount during the first month is best.
During the first month it is better to
grind the grains fed. At the end of
this period either oats or corn may be
fed unground. Hard grains like kafir
and milo give best results when
ground. All grain should be fed dry
in trough. Mixing feeds with milk
is not recommended, as calves chew
their feed better when fed dry.

INTEREST IN ZINC SHELTER
structed at Great Falls Expected
to Prove Big Asset to State.

Helena.-With hundreds of thou
sands of tons of zinc ore in the mines
of the Helena district awaiting the
construction of a cheap process to
treat it, the announcement of John D.
Ryan of the construction of $1,000
900 zinc smelter at Great Falls, was
received with great interest in this
city.
AS result of the increased uses to
which zinc is being put, and the de-
mands for that metal which have fol-
lowed the war, it is expected by min
ing men that the zinc mines in the
vicinity of Helena will be developed.
There are a great many mines in
Lewis and Clark county which pro-
duce that metal almost to the exclu-
sion of other metals, and there are
others which carry large values along
with other ores.

BANNER YEAR FOR MONTANA.
Federal Governments Report on Crops
Is Big Boost for State-Pro-
duction Increased.

Butte.-Montana' crop in the year
1915 was 35 per cent better than in
1914. This is shown by government
crop report just received. Not only
does it show the material increase, but
also that on Dec. l prices averaged ~
per cent lower than a year ago, max
ing a total value of crop production
about 10 per cent more than last year.
These estimates are based on the
crops whose value represented rs per
cent of the value of all crops in the
last complete crop census.
AS for the entire United States pro-
duction this year aggregates in guam
tity about 9 per cent more than last
year. AS the prices for the country
on Dec. 1 averaged l per cent lower
than a year ago, it gives total value
of crop production in the United States
about 8 per cent more than last year.
100000 Bushels of Wheat.
The report shows that Montana
farmers this year produced 33,S00,000
bushels of wheat, which was Is 100000
bushels more than was grown in the
state last year. These figures are
taken from the estimate of the United
States bureau of agriculture, just
made public. On Dec. 1, the price in
Montana for wheat was IS cents as
compared with 81 cents on Dec. 1 the
year before. For the United States the
price on Dec. 1, 1914, was 1856 cents
and on Dec. 1, last, the average price
for wheat in the country was 80 cents.
The area in Montana devoted to wheat
this year was 1,2S0,00O acres, as COM
pared with 10000 acres last year.

RING FOR SELF-SUCKING cow
Habit Is Brought on by Putting Off
MiIking-There Are Numberless
Ways of Prevention.

In most cases it pays to try some
remedy, for a COW of this kind is u.s.
ually a heavy mixer. The habit is
brought on by putting off milking. The
COW suffers and tries to relieve her
self and the habit is formed. Ways
of prevention are numberless.
A cure after the habit is formed is
almost impossible. The most effective
remedy is putting two rings in the
cows nose. Ring the COW in the usual
way, and in this ring hang another,
forming two links of a chain. Some
times one ring will stop the habit, but
In most cases two are needed.

Less than one-fifth of the teachers

under the provisions of that measure,

before Jan. 1, 1916, cannot avail them
selves of the benefits after that date.
Their applications under the law must
then be rejected.

Mine Inspector Makes Report.

With the copper industry in the
Butte district up to smelter capacity;
with the zinc mines turning out a
vast amount of ore that, to great
degree has been waste, and with a
mining revival that has effected the en-
tire state, Montana's mines during the
present year have produced nearly
twice the values they did in 1914.
This is the estimate made by State
Mine Inspector w. B. Orem, who has
submitted his annual report to Gov
ernor Samuel V. Stewart. Mr.. Orem
estimates that the mines of Montana
have produced this year nearly $780,
100000. In 1914 the production
reached $49,35O,O00. The figures for
1915 will not be available until after
the first of the year.
Mr.. Orem dwells particularly upon
the development of the zinc industry
In the state and declares that, where
as the producer of this metal was
penalized for the zinc in ore shipped
to the smelter, today, zinc is one of
the leading minerals of the state, and
he expects that a vast amount of de-
velopment work will be done next year
on these mines.

Car Shortage Disappearing.

Gradually the car shortage which
early in the fall threatened to hole
back Montana's immense wheat crop is
disappearing, the railroads having re
sponded to the call for more cars as
fast as they could get them from the
east.
1t now seems likely that the entire
crop will have been moved by the first
of the year, or possibly little later,
according to J. H. Hall, chairman of
the state railroad commission. Mr..
Hall says that the railroads operating
in this state handled threatened en-
barrassing situation in a manner high
ly satisfactory to the farmers and to
the elevator men, as well as to the
commission, when it seemed likely
that the same situation would prevail
here as in the east where traffic is
even yet badly congested.
