$4,000 TO MONTANA
FOR SURVEY OF FOOD
F. S. Cooley Of State College
Has Plan for Expend-
iture.

Bozenan, Aug. 1o.-The food survey
bill which has passed both houses OF
congress and which was signed by the
president today, carries with II an ap-
preparation for the pushing Of the food
production and conservation in the
various states, in which Montana will
share to the amount of $4,000, ac-
cording to the estimates made by the
department of agriculture at Wash
inston, made in anticipation of the
passage of the bill. This is the state
ment OF Directors F.. S. Cooley OF the
extension department Of the Montana
state college, who was requested by
the United States department To work
out and submit some time ago for APP
prevail a plan for the expenditure of
the money. This WAS done so that as
soon as the president signed the bin
the money would be available.
The plans made by Professor
Cooley call for the employment of 16
more county agricultural agents in the
state In addition to the Is already
permanently employed Besides these
there will be nine woman county
agents to assist in the food conserva-
tion campaign among the women OF
the state. 1t will also be possible to
employ a number of workers on part
or full time to supervise and stimu-
late the work of the boys and girls
garden and canning. clubs. which are
playing a large part in the food cam
paign which the government is pro-
noting.
! The securing of this money from
| the federal government will depend in
some degree upon the raising of money
| from local sources to support the
work, but the offer of the federal
| government is so generous and the
work so important that it is not. an :
| ticipated that there will be serious
difficulty in getting the local support

The supervisor refers to the re-

parts of the United States to sho"

Decrease in Seven Years.
1.-THE sheep census of the United
States in 1910 showed that there were
at that time 5s.00o,oOo Of them in the
country" says Mr.. Seely. "On Janu-
airy |, 1917. there were 47,00O,000. This
is accounted for by the fact that in
the last half dozen years or so 100000,
900 acres Of range land has been set

domain through the 640-acre home

Hay Shortage Serious.
THE steady decrease of range and
the experiences of last winter in re-
gard to feed will no doubt cause many
of the stockmen to dispose of many
head this fall. l am instructing my
rangers to learn as nearly as possible
how much stock is to be disposed Of
] do not think that any rancher with
so head or less will make any ma
terial reductions; only the growers who
will have to buy hay will sell extern
sively.'

tain by killing. the breeding stock tina,
