not illegal. She was carrying con-
trabanda wheat, and got warning
from the submarine, and the crew
we're saved. Germany's acquies.
cence to the United States demands
| TO release the Americans taken from
ships sunk by the German raider is
regarded as a conciliatory attitude.

marine position had been received.

ment and action is being considered.

latlons was introduced in the Sen

R00STS RAVACED
BY TUBERCULOSIS
HENS WITH DISEASE FOUND
IN NEARLY EVERY COUNTY
IN MONTANA.
New Flock Should BE Started Separ-
ate From Old, With Both Careful
ly Under Fence; Meat Is Whole
some If Liver Is Free From Spots;
Drastic Measures Only Hope.

A hen isn't worth very much, nor
two hens, nor a dozen, but if all the
departments of the average ranch
paid as regular dividends as do the
flock of chickens, the farm mortgage
would soon be curiosity. But be-
cause a hen represents such a small
investment, no one pays any atten-
ton to dead hen or two, and the
occasional funeral procession from
the henhouse stirs up no excitement
on the average large ranch. For this
reason, tuberculosis of poultry, the
most deadly and destructive of dis
eases of fowls, has become widely
spread in Montana. and is present in
nearly every county.
The disease is introduced into a
flock by bird from a diseased
flock, and in six months or so the
older birds begin to show various
symptoms, such as becoming lame,
getting very thin, droopy and rag I'd
in appearance, and finally dying un-
der the roosts or in some corner. If
they are cut open, the liver will be
found thickly spotted with small
white nodules, the intestines may
have knots and punches along their
walls, and other organs may have
punches or swelings. The liver al
ways shows small white spots on it's
surface. An emaciated hen, a year
old, or older, with spotted liver, is
almost certainly a case of tuberculo-
sis.
There is no treatment. A good
way to get rid of the disease is to
start new flock, separate from the
diseased one, keeping both flocks
carefully under fence. The eggs
from the old flock, are all right, and
the meat is wholesome if the liver
is free from spots. When the young
flock is beginning to lay the diseased
flock should be destroyed. Not a
single bird, no matter what it's ap-
pearance, should be kept over. The
house can then be G1sinfected, white
washed and the young birds moved

catching SO few fish that we must
pay higher prices to keep them fish

progress, a shortage OF sup.
plies of grain and a prospect
for a big demand for all of
our grain next year whether
we have peace or war, you
are sure to secure handsome
prices for all grains raised.
A saving of so cents per
bushel on your seed wheat,
flax or barley will probably
mean a decreased yield of
from 2 to 10 bushels per
acre. The production of
choice quality means a pre-
MUM of from So to 81 per
acre.
1t is a deplorable fact that
Montana, with her wonder
ful crop and large yields,
produces such a small per-
centage of grain which is fit
for seed. When [ say that
it is unfit for seed ! do not
mean that it will not grow,
but that it is of inferior
type, mixed variety and con-
tains foul seeds.
