THE ELEMENTS OF SUCCESS
IN RAISING TURKEYS

To raise turkeys successfully. one
must learn their habits. The fowl
was originally wild bird. and still
likes the timber and seclusiOn. In
the early spring the hen will conceal
her nest in a most remote place, and
is she is followed she will wander
around for hours, eventually sneak
ing into the nest from the far side.
Very seldom have / known turkeys
to make their nest in the chicken
houses or barns. through choice.
The eggs hatch much better II left
In the damp. cool nest. Unlike
chicken eggs. they are not easily
chilled. Eggs laid out in our pas
ture last spring during a two days
freeze resulted in hatch Of fifteen
out Of eighteen eggs. The turkey
hen often remains on the nest as long
as three days after the eggs hatch,
or until the young ones begin to
forage for food. When the young
poults start out with the mother hen,
they pick up small bits OF dirt and
stone and peek under leaves for small
bugs. Tho mother will forage with
them, feeding on bugs, grass and
weed seeds, until they are about one
third grown. Then she willingly
brings them up to the farm yard. II

key hen almost always raises eleven
out Of twelve.

MONTANA VIRGIN wool GOODS
OFFERED TO MONTANA PUBLIC

The past year has been one of the
most disastrous and discouraging the
wool grower of the northwest has

extremely long and severe winter OF
1919 and 1920 with abnormally

factors that forced the cost Of pro-

ably above normal. Abnormally
heavy imports Of foreign wool. a

the grower to carry his wool, and to

some plan OF relief for the industry.
The problem confronting the asso-
citation was enormous stocks of wool
on hand. idle mills. jobbers and
wholesalers cancelling orders and
retail men unable to move their stock
at prevailing prices. The public had
quit buying. It Is not necessary to
discuss the reasons for this general
condition: they have been discussed
from all angles and from the stand
point of every branch of the trade.
Suffice to say. the stagnant wool
market and the eyer-continuing cost
of operation (the producer cannot
cancel orders nor stop his production
as is possible with the factories and
sales mem, is crowding the sheep
men nearer and nearer bankruptcy.
channel of marketing had to be
found. The association proposed to
manufacture suiting material and
blankets of all virgin wool and offer
them to the public direct. This move
was not due to a desire on the part
of the sheep men to enter the manu-
featuring. wholesaling or retailing OF
clothing, but it seemed the only pos
sible outlet for wool. The object
back Of this movement was first to
sell wool. second to show that the
high cost Of clothing to the consumer
had but little relation to the price
paid the grower for raw wool: and
third to show the people the superior
quality of an all virgin wool fabric
as compared with one containing q
high percentage of shoddy.
The question of financing and
working out the details Of this pro-
gram of work by the association
proved to be the real stumbling
block. DR.. H. c. Gardiner of Ana
conda. who is director of the asso-
citation and the originator Of the idea
finally proposed that he would per-
sonally undertake the work. arrange
for financial support and take full
responsibility for the sales agencies.
The directors Of the association APP
proved the proposition and agreed to
give the movement all possible moral
support, but requiring the guarantee
that only all virgin Montana wool
would be used in the manufacture of
the fabrics. The National Wool
Growers Association have also ap-
proved this work and in so doing
have opened up large field for ma
terials made from virgin Montana
wool
Much time and expense was con-
sumed in finding suitable mill that
would sign satisfactory contracts
and then after business arrangements
we're completed it required some six
weeks to get cloth patterns through
the process Of manufacture. This
explains why the goods are only now
appearing for sale when the frs,

Der of last year

The great natural advantages that
Montana has to offer to the livestock

remained on the land feel heavier

them. and consequently q change

ciple Of conserving surplus re-
sources for days of need will insure
US an adequate supply Of feed year

There Is now q widespread and .
rapidly increasing sentiment among
farmers and businessmen generally
for the raising Of more livestock in
the state on both large and small
scales and this sentiment Is fostereo
by banks and farm loan companies,
who see in the growth Of the live

tensive development of our great
state.
Montana Is rich In mineral resour-
ces, rich in coal deposits. rich in the
possession of tremendous power from
her water falls and swift flowing
streams and is now attracting nation
wide attention as an oil field of vast
importance. Her industrial develop
ment Is only in its infancy and at
more advanced stage will attract
much immigration and provide ca

the products Of the farm and of the
stock ranch.
These natural advantages which
Montana offers should appeal strong

STATE BOARD ACTS
Warming Issue to Prevent
Spread of Diphtheria.
Disease Reported as Dangerous
in Three Kansas Cities.

The state board of health today is
sued a warning against a possible state
wide epidemic of diphtheria. A bull
letin by DR.. S. J. Crumbine, secretary
of the state board, was issued Following
reports of 166 new dipthCria cases in
the state last week. The number of
new cases will be doubled this week,
early returns indicate.
Letters to Kanx7s physicians were
mailed from the state department dur
antitoxin be administered to children
that three doses be given in weekly
treatments. This course, it is declared,
will reduce the death rate from the di-
sease at least rs per cent. Use of the
Shick tests to show immunity is urged.
To Cooperate With Physicians.
The state board will cooperate with
local physicians and health officers in
fighting the disease. Today's letter
states that the department has for
free distribution both the material for
Shick tests and the the toXin-antitoxin
for immuniZation.
At present danger conditions exist
only in three cities of the state-To-
peka, Wichita and Usage City. There
is real danger of spread to other towns
and the state department is now urging

Diphtheria Epidemic Shows Big
Increase Here.
Board of Health Issues Another
Urgent Appeal.
'eported in Septenl-
Total for the week. =:

The diphtheria epidemic increased
its total of cases in the city to 70 to-
day. an increase of nine active cases
over the total number on Tuesday.
The city board of health today issued
another urgent appeal to the public
to use its best efforts in fighting the
epidemic. The months total of cases
counted at o'clock today showed SO,
a number to justify much alarm in the
city.
During the month of August fifty
cases were reported. In the three
weeks of September. the August total
has been nearly doubled.
The city board of health is meeting
a continual procession of parents and
children at the city clinic room and
making examinations. In nearly every
case the children are those who have
tically all of them have temperatures
and many are found to have diph-
iberia. More than seventy throat cul-
lures were examined at the city bac-
THEOLOGICAL laboratory this morning.
ANY person with a sore throat who
goes to a theater, a meeting of an or
ganiZation Or other gathering of per-
sons is as much a criminal as one
who will go out and steal something" !"
declared DR.. Earle G. Brown. city
health officer, today. 1.-The person is
running the risk of exposing to illness
the health of others. He acts de-
liberately, knowing that there is a pos
sibility of his having diphtheria.''
Some Parents Indignant.
'fThree-fourths of the parents who
bring their children to the health de-
partment are indignant that the chill
dren have been sent home from school
because they are thought to be ill.,
Doctor Brown said. Parents have no
right to object to their children being
examined at school and sent home if
it is thought necessary, but should be
grateful to the school management for
attempts to protect the children"
One small boy brought to the clinic
by his mother was found to have a
temperature of 1925 and a membrane
in his throat. Doctor Brown urged that
the children found to have a tempera-
ture should be put to bed and the fam
lily physician called, for quiet for the
patient and early medical attention is
vital in diphtheria. A poison from the
diphtheria germ, more deadly than
strychnine, is a great danger in the
disease and may attack the heart and
result fatally if the patient is allowed
to be active.
NEED for municipal hospital with
a contagion ward has never been more
necessary" Doctor Brown declared.
with diphtheria cases isolated the
conta gion in families could be pre-
vented"
Diphtheria has a rival for attention
with the city board of health. Scarlet
fever cases total twenty-four and many
are of serious nature.
