DECREASE IN NUMBER OF
MEAT ANIMALS IN STATE
Federal Agent Gives as Reason Severe
Weather Last Winter and General
High Price of Feed.

Missoula.-A decrease in the number
of all classes of meat animals in Mon
tana Is noted in the January report
just issued by Guy Fitzpatrick Of Mis-
soula, field agent in the state for the
department of agriculture.
The report attributes the decrease
caused by last years severe winter
weather, to forced reduction of range
herds for lack of grazing facilities
and to the general scarcity and high
cost in Montana of hay and other
feeds.
Mr.. Fitzpzatrick's report notes the
following decreases on January /, 1918,
as compared to January l, 1917:
Beef cattle, 10000 head; sheep. 3d.
900 head; swine. $4,000 head Despite
the decreases in numbers, however,
the value of meat herds has increased
as follows:
Beef cattle, $1,S7S.00O; sheep, S13,-
$1,000; swine. $1,179,0OO.
Horses and milk cows have increas-
ed in numbers and value as follows:
Horses, 10000, $7,26S. 600: milk.
cows, 10000. $2.306,5OO Mules have
increased not at all in numbers and
have decreased $4,000 in value, the
report shows.

cessitates the employment of some
other method of selection. In the
breeding of high producing animals
through several generations it has
been observed that there are certain
characteristics of the conformation
which are correlated with large pro-
duction. These characteristics are
namely: ID Extreme angular form,
carrying no surplus flesh, but in good
physical condition. (2) Prominent de-
velopment of the udder and veins. t3)
The symmetrical development of the
barrel with large capacity. After one
becomes familiar with these external
characteristics it is possible to select
cows producing 300 pounds of fat per
year from those producing $50 pounds.
The difficulty comes in picking the ami
NAL that will produce 500 pounds of
fat per year compared to the one pro-
ducing 400 pounds.
The selection of animals by this
method is rather uncertain. Until rec
Ords are kept of more animals or some
other means devised for selection, the
selection by type should be used and
it is up to everyone interested in
dairy cattle to become familiar with it.

Physicians Deaths.

As an example of how malicious and
seemingly innocent is German propa-
ganda il, the United States may be
cited the rumors and the actual facts
about mortality among the allied
physicians at the western front.
Recently the actual statistics were
produced, which showed that the bat
tie risks of physician are scarcely
more than those of civil life. Between
the beginning of the war and June %,
1917, only 195 French and English doc
tors have been killed, 707 wounded and
90 cut down by disease.

LEGUME HAYS ARE VALUABLE
Solves Dairyman's Prob
lem of Feed.
By G. E. WEAVER, University Farm.
st Paul Minn)

CBy G. E. WEAVER, University Farm,
St. Paul, Mimi
One hundred and seventy-fve pounds
of good alfalfa or clover hay is worth
as much as 100 pounds of the ordinary
grain feeds. With the present prices
for feeds ranging from S25 ton for
bran to SS5 per ton for corn, the aver
age cost for 100 pounds of grain is
about S2.75. The cost Of its food
equivalent in the form of IT'S pounds
of legume hay is S2.15. This much hay
will produce 200 pounds of milk and
effect saving in feed cost of 60 cents,
which is at the rate of 80 cents for
each hundred pounds.
The utilization Of such hay partly
solves the dairyman's problem in these
days of high feed cost and milk in
vestigations.

SwindIehurst Interested.

State Fuel Administrator Swindle-
hurst is wondering where the Great
Falls jobber will find that surplus coal
for shipment to North Dakota and
Washington that they have advised the
national fuel administration is avail
able. Figures he obtained from the
mines and the railroads show that in
stead of Montana having a surplus, it
actually produced 100000 tons less of
coal than are required for its own
needs.
The word was sent to Washington
by the jobbers that the Bear Creek
field alone could export 1900 tons of
coal daily. The records show that the
average daily production of the Bear
Creek mines last year was only 1850
tons. For the week ending January %,
the Bear Greek mines shipped to Mon
tana points 11,700 tons OF coal.

State Veterinarian w. J. Butler to the

He believes that the slaughter of
the animals right off the ranges and
shipment of the frozen meat would

to ship the animals on the hoOf, be-
cause horses slaughtered for food can
be killed only in abattoirs separate
from those used for beef.

The Battle of the Marine was one of
the early encounters of the European
war and was really not a single bat
tie, but series of desperate engage
ments lasting from September to
September IL, 1914. The battle front
was more than 140 miles long, from
near Paris to Verdun, and more than
212 million men, the largest number
up to that time ever engaged in one
battle, took part. At one time the
Germans were only thirty-five miles
from Paris and they had driven the
French and the few English in confu-
sion for over two weeks, but at vital
moment the French and English turn
ed and drove the Germans back to
their line of forts on the Aisne- River.
This battle was the most critical of
the first period of the war, and is al
ready classed as one of the few decis-
i've battles of the world. 1t ended for
some time the German effort to reach
Paris, which had it succeeded, would
doubtless have made Germany victori-
Gus in the war and the dictator of
Europe.
