TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
DUCK RAISING IS GOOD SIDE
ISSUE ON SUCCESSFUL FARM

Of hens eggs. It usually takes duck
lings from "a to % hours to hatch
after they pick the shells; therefore
1t is advisable to allow the hen to
get off the nest for feed and water
when the first ducklings pick the
shell and then confine her to the nest
until the Matching Is over. Ducks
eggs need more moisture than hens
eggs at Matching time, as It takes
the ducks much longer to get out Of
the shell. Poultry specialists in the
department Of agriculture advise,
therefore, that the eggs should be
sprinkled literally with warm water
previous to Matching.
All duck eggs should be tested at
least twice during incubation, pre-
ferably ON the seventh and four
teenth days, and the infertile eggs
and those with dead germs removed.
Dead germs in duck eggs decompose
very rapidly and are often detected
by their odor and should be removed
from the incubator.
Eggs having pure white shells can
be tested as early as the fourth or
fifth day and the infertile eggs sold
to bakers or used in the kitchen.
Ducks are much easier to brood
artificially than chickens, but they
may also be raised under hens sue
cessfully. II raised by the latter
method, It is advisable to confine the
hens and allow the ducklings free
range, as the hens are apt to wander
too far away with their broods.
Ducklings which are to be sold az

much range, but are fed heavily and
forced for rapid growth. The duck
lings which are to be kept for breed
ing should have the web of their foot
punched, using a different number
Of punch marks for each year so that
their age can be readily determined.

A MILLION; THIS STATE HAS
ONLY 4S,498 HEAD LEFT
Game Census of State Is Taken by
Officers Of Federal Forest Service;
Coyote Ii Becoming Native Of For.
est Regions Of Mountains Instead
Of Plain Dweller.

Montana's game population, as
compiled by officers of the United
States forest service is: Elk, 1878
(not including those in the Yellow
stone national park. deer, 1923;
mountain sheep, 2,606; mountain
goats. 3,463; moose, 1873; antelope

are between $4,000 and $4,000 head
Of elk in the Yellowstone national

The forestry service gives the pop
ulation of deer in other states as
California, 100000; Idaho, 1886:
Colorado, 1850; Wyoming, 27,412;
New Mexico, 1865; Utah, 1880;

Game preserves in Montana in
clude 851 200 acres not counting the
Sun River preserve.
r. p. Mclaughlin of the bureau
OF public relations of the forestry SER
vice here said:
1T is a long way from the days of
40 when hunting was a profession
and business, to the present day
sport. The buffalo hunters In the
early days considered that herds OF
buffalo were inexhaustible, and they
little dreamed of any such possibility
as the practical extinction of the
wonderful herds that formerly roam
of game animals in that day would
have been, II proposed, not only i'm
practicable but the suggestion of it
would have been considered absurd.
1T is perhaps interesting to note
{v~ oh ~S
characteristics of many of the great
wild animals, that have been due to
enforced change of habitat. The
coyote is gradually becoming ma
tive of the forest regions of the
mountains; the elk is becoming more
and more browsing animal; the
antelope is almost extinct; the wild
turkeys and sage hens have almost
altogether left the plains. Settle
ment and agriculture together with
the ruthless hunter have been res
ponsible for this situation.
I'm consequence of the settlement
of the prairie, many of the big game
animals formerly accustomed to the
prairie regions have been slowly and
naturally forced to take refuge in the
national forests. The national for
eStS, therefore, nave become, TO q
large extent, the home Of most of the
big game in existence at the present
time. It is fortunate, in fact, that
such vast Incorporated regions re-
main adapted and suitable for the
home Of these disappearing herds.
Were it not for these regions, there
must needs come time when the big
game of this country shall have be-
come extinct.
Forest fires have an important
bearing upon the game situation in
the country and hunters and sports
men are adopting vigorous measures
to assist in preventing and suppress
sing fires in the woods. During
some Of the severe forest fires In
Montana and Idaho. 1t has been FIRE.
Quently noted by forest rangers that
hundreds Of deer, especially does and
fawns and smaller animals. are killed
outright in these terrible conflagra-
tions. Forest rangers frequently re-
port numerous carcasses of these
animals found in burns by them after
the fire has subsidized"

PURE BRED HEREFORD
ON FIRST BIRTHDAY

There is a young farmer, down
near Hamblin, McCone county, who
had a birthday just recently that
brought him a birthday present worth
talking about, especially for a farm
er stock man, even if he is but one
year old.
Robert Frank Whitmus lives with
his people on the C Diamond w
ranch and his grandfather, VIM.
Frow, a livestock commission mar of
Chicago, thought that a pure bred
white face would be an appropriate
birthday present for his grandson, so
he had a young Hereford bull of
about the same age as the little
grandson shipped to Wolf Point by
j. H. Shute & Son of Ottawa, III.
The calf was met on his arrival here
this week by members of the Whit
mus family and Mrs. C. L. Whitmus
very kindly came in and gave The
Herald the item.
The aristocratic young Hereford is
of the very best breeding and is on
sidered a prize animal even in the
pure bred district from which he
comes. Descriptive matter sent out
by the breeders say his name is
Prince Dandy and he is pronounced
by the Shutes as one of the best
calves they ever raised. A lengthy
and impressive pedigree tells how he
was sired by Beau Dandy and is a
grandson of Beau Brummel and that
his dam is from the Onward family,
etc.
Mr.. Frow is presenting this ami
NAL to his grandson on his first birth
day on the theory that, coming from
cattle raising stock, there is merit in
giving the youngster an early start.
1t would be hard to suggest any
thing that would do as much fer this
country as pure bred sires of the
right breeds, with every herd, drove
and flock on the farms and ranches.
