FEEDING DRY MASH TO HENS
Ground Grain Should Be Available
for Layers At All TImes-Feed
Is Easily Dlgssted.

Dry mash, consisting Of ground
grain, should be available for free &C.
cess for the laying hen at all times
She will eat at least one-half as much
mash by weight as grain, If 1t is
placed where she can help herself
whenever she wants 1t. There is a
decided advantage in feeding dry mash
in addition to the regular morning and
night grain feed. The mash is ground
feeds, and, therefore, is more readily
dIgested add assimilated by the hen.
An occasional feeding at noon OF the
same dry mash mixed with milk and
fed in troughs Of sufficient length for
all birds to eat at once will do a great
deal toward increasing egg production
What the hen likes is variety. At this
feeding the table scraps and boiled
vegetables may be mixed in. A small
amount of red pepper added to the
wet mash will do no harm as a stimu'
liant.

RECEIVE THANKS
Missoula's Appreciation FIX.
pressed by Richards.

Commander Charles Dodge of Fred
Winthrop Post of the Grand Army of
the Republic yesterday made public a
letter from d. D. Richards, secretary
of the chamber of commerce. thanking
the Grand Army men for the part they
took in the demonstration of patriot
ism here last Sunday The letter fol-
lows:
ut is not fitting that I, in behalf of
the Missoula Chamber of Commerce.
extend thanks to the members OF the
Fred Winthrop Post Of the G. A. r.
and their participation in the patriotic
demonstration held on Sunday AFTER
noon. ! say it is not fitting for me or
the Missoula Chamber of Commerce
to thank you because l realize that
you men were patriots of the most
patriotic kind long before the Missoula
Chamber Of Commerce was conceived.
However, the Missoula Chamber of
Commerce does want you to know that
it appreciates greatly the fine turn
out of the Fred Winthrop Post to the
patriotic exercises. We know that you
did this heartily and cheerfully, and
we know that the spirit which sent
You to fight for the Union in '61 still
lives, though the house which holds
it has possibly weathered some in the
storms of the years.
Without the participation of the
members of the Fred Winthrop Post
of the q. A. r. ot,r patriotic demon
stration would have lacked a great
deal; with your cooperation the
demonstration was the biggest and
most successful patriotic demonstration
western Montana has ever had. We
are grateful to each and every one of
your men for the very material as
sistance you have rendered in arous-
ing the heretofore latent patriotism of
some of the residents of Missoula.'

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
TO DISCUSS STAMPEDE
General Meeting Called at
Which. Fourth of July
May Be Subject.
DECRY SPECTACULAR
With Nation at War, Com
mite Decided, Frivolity
Would Be Unseemly.

A special meeting of the Missoula
! Chamber of Commerce general mrm-
| bership has been called by President
A. l.. Stone for Saturday evening at 8
o'clock in the chamber of commerce
building.
The meeting is called at the request
of some of the chamber Of commerce
members, who yesterday presented to
President Stone written request for
the session.
II is said that at this meeting the
action Of the executive committee OF
the chamber of commerce in calling
off Stampede for Missoula this year,
will be discussed. The executive COM
mittee in a meeting held Wednesday
noon passed n resolution, calling upon
the people of Missoula to devote their
energies this year to mammoth
Fourth of July celebration and urging
that the day, for patriotic reasons, be
given over to q celebration Of a serious
nature, rather than to purely spectac-
ular amusements. The resolution also
pointed out the seriousness of the
present international crisis and gave
as its opinion that in as much as the
United States is now at war. the re-
sources of the organization and all
the citizens should be devoted to those
things which will result in bigger
crops of foodstuffs for the army, navy
and our citizens.
The officials of the chamber of
commerce hope there will be q large
and representative gathering in the
chamber of commerce auditorium on
Saturday evening in order that if the
matter is brought up the present in
ternational situation may be discussed
from every angle and that every men,
Der of the chamber of commerce may
be given AN opportunity to be heard.
