With the coming of the homestead.
er u expectations increased due tc
the closing out of many OF the larger
outfits. Our cattle decreased to an
alarming extent. We were not used
to fences and many of us thought the
days of the cattle industry were OH
the wane. These fears, we realize
now, were unfounded, but whether
unfounded or not they were real and
many thousands Of breeding cattle
were shipped out. Better would it
have been if they had remained in
the country, and better would it have
been for Ii stockmen today had
they remained in the stock business
instead Of selling out, and, as in
motors of foreign enterprises simply
because they had a surplus of money,
were out of the stock business, and
wanted something to do.
Mistake Soon Realized.
Fortunately We. as a people, were
not long in realizing our mistake and
for the past few years we have been
building up a stock industry founded
on the new methods Of stock raising
SO that today the stock industry of
Montana has a better future, a more
stable foundation, than it ever had
in the past.
Our future is indeed bright. AS a
state we offer that which few coun-
tries in the world can offer. Our
natural resources are unsurpassed,
our dry climate during the greater
part of the year is ideal. Our ma
tive grasses have a food value that
is unequaled, u hay cures green,
and our pure mountain water gives
that to live stock which in the east
they lack. Take, for instance, the
grass fed cattle shipped out of the
Big Hole basin, or the Lodge Grass
country. They have topped the mar
ket for years and are Just as eagerly
sought and competed for by the buy
ers in the large stock centers as are
the grain fed cattle of the middle
west. These conditions are not tenn
porary-they are permanent. We
can, and are, raising bigger boned,
bigger framed, and better grained
beef than most any other country in
the world. In fact, we have no SUI
perior in the raising of beef cattle,
o. for that matter any grade or class
of live stock.
Coast Markets Improving.
Our markets and shipping facilities
have been much better. The coast
markets are improving and open to
us an outlet which we car reach from
many parts of Montana without UNI
loading and feeding. They are offer
ing inducements to u stockmen and
there is no legitimate, economic or
industrial factor, or reason, why
their prices and facilities should not
be in active competition with Chica-
go, or any of the eastern stock mar
kets.
The feeder stock industry of Mon
tana is indeed full of possibilities
but it's development will not depend
alone upon the stockmen but to a
great extent upon our farmers. We
it is a problem to make a
straight grain farm pay, especially
when it is considerably removed from
its market. We must stock our
both large and small. The
farmer must be placed in a position
to secure as many cattle or sheep as
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1916-12-08

COWS freshen in the spring they are
in full flow of milk and need the
best care when all kinds of other
farm work are most pressing. On the
other hand, if the COWS calve in the
all and are MIXED all winter. the
farmer can give them close atten-
ton, has more time TO study feeding
problems and can give the hired man
employment all the GEAR and in that
way get better help.
Fall calves can be raised better
than those born in the spring. Young
calves should be FED on milk for sew
eral months after which they must
be weaned and fed on solid food.
If born in the spring they may be
neglected in the rush of farm work,
may be tormented by flies all sum-
mer, and when it is time to wean
them they must be put on a dry win
ter ration. Fall calves come at a
time when they can be given the
closest attention and when weaned
they can be put on grass at an age
when an easily digested and nutri-
tious food is most needed.

TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
Men, Methods of Stock Raising Building for the Future
Feeder Stock Industry Full of Possibilities; Means Money for the Ear1ne,

By w. F. Butler, State Veterinary
Surgeon.
Tell me where the roundup gathers,
Where's the long horn Texan gone,
Where's the prairies of our fathers,
Where's the trails we rode along,
Where's the mustang, chaps, and
saddle,
Where's the cowboy and his song?
"Where's the old Dutch oven outfit,
Where's the cOwman and his lay.
Where's the antelope. the white tail,
Where's the old-time faro play,
Where's the %frolics, circles, pas
times,
Where's the life Of yesterday?"
The swan song has been sung and
range days are but memories. Pleas
ant they are to those who live and
remember. Sad is the knowledge
that they will never be again.
The COW man of range days has
trailed over the big divide or has
been caught in the eve %encroaching
net of barbed wire fences, pastures,
and farms.
To the stockman and stockwoman
of bygone days, we of the eve and
present generations bow our heads
in deep and worthy admiration.
Theirs is the knowledge of work
we'll done. Ours the heritage of an
industry founded on a solid basis.
But what of the present and fu-
ture?
Problem of Early Maturing.
We must no longer figure on how
little hay we have to feed to bring
our cows and calves through the win
ter. We must figure on feed
ing every animal we have in such a
way as to not only bring them
through the winter, but to keep
them growing. The problem of
today is how to mature our cat
tie and get them ready for market
at as early an age as possible. To
do this we must no longer chance

More Profit in Cows
Which Freshen in Fail

Milk is more in demand and high
est prices are paid for butter fat and
cream during the winter months.
This is mainly because the great ma
jority of cows freshen during the
spring months, produce heavily dur
ing the spring and summer months
and begin to dry uI at the approach
Of winter. This lea is one to wonder
why more dairymen 90 not arrange
to breed their cows 81 that they will
freshen in the fall and maintain a
high rate of production during the
bring the highest prices. Where a
good supply of winter feed is avail
able, intensive winter dairying is
highly profitable and could be fol-
lowed to advantage on many Mon
tana farms. The following are some
of the advantages gained by revers-
ing the usual order and having the
calves come in the fall instead of in
the spring.
Higher prices are obtained for
dairy products. During the winter
months milk can be cooled at little
or no expense and cream can be kept
longer and with less danger of sour
ing than in warm weather.
The milking period is heightened
and the yearly production is in
creased. Cows tina. freshen in the
spring milk heavily while the pas
ture is good but in late summer when
the pasture begins to fail the flow of
milk falls off and with the approach
of winter the COWS are so nearly dry
that they respond but little to the
winter feed rations. On the other
hand cows which freshen in the fall
will produce we'll on a winter ration
for six months and when turned out
to pasture in the spring. under the
stimulus of the fresh green feed, will
maintain for a time a milk flow
nearly as great as that from fresh
cows. Recent investigation by ex-
pertinent stations verify this state
ment.
In winter dairying the amount of
labor on the farm is better distri-
buted throughout the year. If the

the accumulative results of hard win
tiers and dry summers. We must
build adequate sheds, we must Sc.
cure an adequate water supply for
both summe and winter and we
must secure sufficient feed to
make the dread of a hard winter a
thing of the past.
Artificial Protection Necessary.
A few years ago, when range was
plentiful and not over-stocked, when
cattle could travel into bad lands
and brush bottoms when shelter was
needed, this was not necessary. With
the coming of the homesteader and
barbed wire fences the natural pro-
lection afforded by our country was,
in many instances, closed to our live
stock so that today-as has been
stated-we must build artificial pro-
lection, drill wells to take the place
of the fenced in water holes, and
feed our live stock.
Actual expense of raising live
stock is more today than it was in
the days of the open range. To Off
set the additional cash outlay, we
have our cattle maturing faster, less
loss, better quality of stock, better
shipping facilities, and better prices
for early matured young beef.
The figures, showing the number
of cattle shipped out Of Montana
from the year 1900 to 1915, as fur
nished by the board of stock COM
m%issioners, furnish an interesting

Pure Bred Cattle.

Pure Bred Cattle.
We are in our very infancy in the
raising of pure bred cattle and yet
we have several herds whose equal is
hard to find, and have some Mon
tana bred and raised cattle that have
never been beaten in their class at
any of the large stock shows through
out the United States--a record tina,
is hard to equal in any state so young
in the pure bred industry.
1t should be unnecessary for us to
go to outside states for the heads of
our herds. Our native raised animals
not only have more stamina and bet
ter breeding qualities but are accli-
mated and in the aggregate are freer
from disease than those shipped in.
This is an industry that should be
fostered and to those who are not
acquainted with the splendid herds
that we have in Montana a few DAYS
spent at u state fair will be a re-
velation.

sufficient money to purchase the
number of stock necessary for him to
make winter feeding pay. Thou

roughage feed goes to waste every

We are accustoming ourselves to the
new order Of things. The stock in

into the greatest of all live stock
states, as a glance at the following
