YES, HE'S SOME MAN.

He may wear last years straw
hat; his finger nails may need mani
curing; his vest may hang a little
loose and his pants may bag at the
knees; his face may show signs of a
second days growth, and the tin din
ner bucket he carries may be full of
dents and doughnuts; but don't you
call him "the old man" he's your
father.
For years and years he has been
rustling around to get things togeth-
er. Never once has he failed to do
the right thing by you. He thinks
you are the greatest boy on earth,
bar none, even though you plasted
you hair back, wear smart clothes,
smoke cigarettes and fail to bring
home a cent. He is the man who won
the love and life partnership of the
greatest woman on earth-your moth
er. He is "some man" and not ''the
old man"
If you win as good a wife as he
did you will have to go some.

HITCHCOCK STUDIES
TICK FEVER" CURE

A recent newspaper account stated
that DR.. E. D. Hitchcock, state bac-
teriOlogist, had announced the discov-
cry of specific treatment and cure
Of Rocky Mountain spotted stick"
fever. In justification to DR.. Hitck-
cock, this department wishes to state
that the news item in question was
unauthorized and issued without his
knowledge. The probable basis of the
story was the rapid improvement and
recovery, of an apparently hopeless
case of the disease following the in
travenous administration of a five
per cent solution of sodium bicarbon-
ate, in which case DIR. Hitchcock was
a consultant. The treatment was
largely empirical, based upon the
theory of combating a condition of
intense acidosis. The result was en-
couraging, but further use as a reg
ular measure must be sumbitted to
laboratory study and investigation.
Any authorized announcements of the
progress Of this study will be made
In proper manner.

THE COUNTRY BOYS CREED.

l believe that the country which
God made is the more beautiful than
the city which man made that life
out-of-doors and in touch with the
earth is the natural life of man.
believe that work is work wherever
we find it, but that work with nature
is more inspiring than work with the
most intricate machinery. l believe
that the dignity of labor depends,
not on what you do, but on how you
do it that opportunity comes to a
boy on the farm as often as to a boy
in the city; that life is larger and
freer and happier on the farm than
in town; that my success depends,
not upon my dreams, but upon what
actually do; not upon luck, but upon
pluck. I believe in working when
you work and in playing when you
play, and in giving and demanding a
square deal in every act in life.-Ed

FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
LOANS TO FARMERS

Of a total of slightly more than
$12,O00,000 loaned by the federal re
serve branch bank at Helena, farmers
and stockmen of Montana have re-
ceived S11,OOO,OOO, Oscar Carlson,
manager of the bank, declared in his
address, which featured the weekly
luncheon program of the Rotary club,
held at Butte Thursday.
In his explanation of the workings
of the federal reserve bank system, its
benefits and accomplishments, Mr.
Carlson nailed as lies the charges that
enormous profits have been made by
the federal reserve system. Instead
of the 2.001 per cent profit which the
system has been charged with max
ing, the net earnings have been only
20 per cent, Mr.. Carlson asserted.
"These beliefs have been due to a
misunderstanding of the workings of
the federal banks" he said. "The
amount of money which is ordinarily
considered as profits for the individ-
ual banking concerns is turned into
surplus fund. Other funds are TAX
en- out by the government as a fran
chise tax. This has cut the net earn
ings to 2.9 per cent, which certainly
is not profiteering."
Out of the 146 banks in Montana
there are only 10 which have not ask
ed for loans, two of which are ir
Butte, Mr.. Carlson stated.
"The federal reserve banking sys
tenn is the greatest banking stabiliz
er in the world" he declared
Through it the war was financed
and this country has been held aloo
from the terrors of a financial pani
because of the elasticity of it's finan
cial system"

Montana Farming Topics


tie are much better adapted to such
conditions than are dairy cattle, sheep
or hogs. Dairy cattle cannot pro-
duce large quantities of mix on slc3
winter feeds nor when they have to
pasture over considerable areas to OBJ
tain feed in summer. Sheep are not
we'll adapted to such winter feeds
without the addition of considerable
quantities Of purchased concentrates,
and hogs are unable to utilize such
rou6hages at all. Straw and silage
supplemented with a little hay or at
times purchased concentrates can be
used to excellent advantage by beef
cattle.
Livestock for Rough Ground.
The topography of many Of our dry
farms is such that a considerable ac-
reage of native grass cannot be plow-
ed and so if the maximum reaurn IS
to be utilized by some form of live
stock. Open range if often available
nearby and can be used in addition
to home pastures. The area of the
farm pastures may be considerable,
but the carrying capacity may not
be large and when open range IS not
available the number Of cattle that
the farm will support will depend on
the number that can safely be car
ried through the summer on the pas
lures available.
As transportation to market inn
proves many dry farmers will want
to milk some cows and sell the milk
or cream. Although such farms are
not usually adapted to strictly dairy
farming, it is probable that in most
cases the farm income can be IN
creased by milking few of the COWS
in the farm herd. In few cases will
the entire herd be milked and on most
farms the number will probably run
from two to siv, the remainder Of the
COWS being run on pasture with their
calves.
Many farmers have reached this
point and are searching for a meth
cd of breeding or an established breed
that will enable them to produce cat
tie that will meet their requirements
Most of their COWS are grades anc
they desire to use bulls that can sire
the type of cattle they want. Then
need is for bulls that can sire steers
that will sell near the top of theil
class and COWS that will produce sucI
steers and a liberal flow Of milk
Some desire bulls whose cows viii
produce a very large amount of mix

BEEF CATTLE ON
MONTANA FARMS
By R. B. MILLIN
. CLivestock Specialist, Montana State
x College).

Beef cattle long ago proved their
ability to transform the native grass
OF Montana into a commercial prod
uct when run on the range. But time
has seen the development of a farm
ing industry on much of what was
formerly the range land of the state,
and since the development Of most
of these farms has been within recent
years, and indeed is still in progress
and methods of farming have been
more or less m a transition stage,
beef cattle for the most part have
not as yet obtained definite place
in farming operations.
1t is probable that we are nearing
the end of transition period during
which most of the land than can prof
itably be put under plOw has been
taken upand that the expansion will
not be much greater. Development
in the past has come through an in
crease in the acreage under cultiva-
tion but as the land situation be-
comes stabilized, development must
come through a more stable system
Of farming. In such a system beef
cattle will probably play an fmpor-
tant part.
The place that beef cattle will
COME toSsycupy in the farming opera
tiOns will be greatly influenced by the
crops produced, the area of the farm
its topography and environment.
On the dry farms but few grain
crops of good feeding value are pro-
duced and most of the roughage is
of comparatively low feeding value
Alfalfa or clover hay, our best feed
ing roughages, are produced in but
very limited quantities. Native hay
is very small factor. The princi
pal feed is straw from the oat OF
wheat crop. Silage crops such as corr
or sunflowers can be produced OF
most dry farms. Native pasture il
aSusaally~ %saiIable for summer use.
