PLANTING VALUABLE
GRASS IN MONTANA

The Montana experiment station at
bozeman, cooperating with the Unit
States department of agriculture,
TINS year is making mer plant
lngs of Siberian wheat in Montana,
according to a statement from P. V.
Carbon, agronomist at the experiment
station. This grass has proven to be
n OF the most promising grasses
ever imported into Montana.
Siberian wheat grass is a perennial
with a roofing habit similar to the
blue joint or western wheat grass and
hence is not subject to the common
objection in Bronze grass, which has
a running DOT stock. The new grass
apparently is as hardy as any known
in Montana and makes a fine leafy
growth. 1t can be used to advantage
on dry land for either hay or pasture.
The supply of seed of the Siberian
wheat grass is limited in the United
States, the paintings this year in
Montana representing practically the
entire available supply of this coun-
try. Importation of additional seed
from Russia now is impossible, so the
agronomy department of the Montana
station will arrange for local produc-
ton and distribute the seed, as rapid
ly as it becomes available, to all far
mers of the state.

"LISTENING IN" ON CALIFORNIA

Prof. j. A.. Thaler of the electrical
engineering department of Montana
State College is Bozeman has devel-
oped some novel stunts of Listening
in" on the conversation of other peo-
Pile. If John Jones of San Francisco
wishes to talk to Jim Smith of Los
Angeles, they must remember that J.
A. Thaler of Bozeman is liable to
hear their conversation.
Professor Thaler does his listen
ing-in with a wireless telephone. The
instrument set up in the electrical en-
gineering rooms at the college has
been the source of more than common
attention, since the members of the
department have found that they can
hear conversation from all parts Of
the western United States. Last week
Prof. Thaler heard an Oregon farmer
telling a Washington farmer about the
condition of his crops and the health
of his family.
The electrical engineering depart
ment has done some interesting work
with wireless. The wireless tele-
graph instrument has picked up mes
sages from a distance as far as three
hundred miles out in the Pacific
ocean, and is in communication with
the stations of northwest America
most of the time. During the basket
ball tournament and other important
events at the college at BoZeman,
scores and other items are flashed out
to other towns of the state by wire

GOPHER WAR IN
VALLEY COUNTY
General Campaign Against Rodents
With Headquarters at Glasgow
Where to Obtain Poison.

Farmers of this county are taking
an active part voluntarily, in the
statewide war for the determination
of gophers. They are handicapped
however, by the large amount of va
cant land owned by no~n-residents, the
state and the government.
The Farm Bureau through County
Agent Stebbins, has made arrange
ment for the distribution of prepared
poison for cost, and persons requiring
it, can obtain the necessary supply at
the following points in the county:
Al Nashua, Equity Cooperative
store; Frazier, general store; Oswe-
go, Wall & Krall; Larslan, postof-
flee; Avondale, postoffice; Baylor, DR..
Miller's; Orpheim, postoffice; Glen
tana, Howard Mercantile Co.; Roun-
wood, postoffice; Thoeny, Theory
Mercantile; Genevieve, store; Hins-
dale, Weber Drug Co.; Vandalia, L.
c. Hansn; Tampico, general store. At
Glasgow at the Farm Bureau office.
AS required by law, persons have
been appointed in each locality by the
county commissioners, whose duty it
is to see that the poison is used gen
orally. If they find land upon which
it is not used it is their duty to re-
port to the county commissioners,
who will then order the work done,
and the cost will be charged against
the land as other taxes.
Poison for the state, government
and Indian land, is mixed at Glasgow
and this will be used under official di-
rection. The government authorities
plan a field party Of four for the res
ervation, under the direction of Frank
o. Sullivan of the Biological survey.
Full directions for the use of poison
accompany each package, also in
structions are given in the same way
for the giving of first class aid and
treatment to stock that get poison by
misake. If the directions in it's use
are followed, the danger to poultry,
wild game and stock is reduced to a
minimum.
The campaign vas first undertaken
in this county in 1918, and good re-
suits have been noted each year in
the decrease in the number of the
pests, from year to year. 1t seems
as though the general and persistent
use of the poison is a great benefit
to farmers and will finally result in
the complete eradication of the ro-
dents.

DAIRY RULES AD-
APTED BY BOARD
Inspection, Diaries, Creameries and
Slaughter Houses Provided for
and Milk Classified.

Important changes looking to bet
terment of the public health in dis
tribution of milk of a much higher
quality in Montana, are made in reg
ulations governing inspection of
products by the Montana livestock
sanitary board, according to Dr. W J.
Butler, state veterinary surgeon.
The board has been in session for
two days, on Thursday discussing
changes in the regulations with
dairymen and on Friday preparing and
formally adopting the regulations.
The board took over inspection of
dairies, creameries and slaughter
houses in compliance with a law of the
last assembly consolidating the dairy
commission and livestock sanitary
board.
Effective July l..
The new regulations, which will be
effective on July l, make little change
in the present rules for inspection and
sanitation Of slaughter houses.
Under the new regulations, milk
will be divided into three classes, GER
titled, inspected and market milk.
Certified milk, which will be of the
highest quality offered for sale must
conform to the regulations for certi-
fled milk which have been adopted by
the American medical association of
milk examiners. That body has copy
righted and defined the meaning of
certified milk. By the state board
adopting the same regulations the
copyright is protected in this state and
all dealers must comply.
Inspected Milk.
Inspected milk means it comes from
herds which have been inspected at
least once a year and are free of
tuberculosis, licensed by the state and
have a score or inspection of 20 on
equipment and so on methods out of a
possible 100 per cent.
Inspected milk will be on sale after
July l. The inspected milk will be
delivered in bottles only with the caps
free of advertising except the name of
the dairy or pasteurizing agency, the
date of production. This milk must be
delivered within SO hours after pas
teurizing or production.
The market milk is that which does
not conform to the other two higher
standards.
Municipal Agencies.
AS the state board cannot take up
the work of bacterial counts of milk,
because of shipping distances, it rec
ommends to all municipal health
agencies, to standardize milk by adop-
ton of the bacterial count.
The new regulations also require
that inspected milk shall contain not
more than $50, 900 bacteria per cubic
centimeter in milk nor 100000 in
cream and in ~pasteurized milk not
more than 10000 bacteria per cubic
centimeter or 100000 becteria per
cubic centimeter in cream.
The board also recommends the
Frost plate method for computing the
bacterial count.
The board has continued the same
butter fat standards.

speaker urged the farmers to "quit

their farms, and to raise more dairy
cows, hogs and other livestock and
poultry, not only to subsist on the
farm but to sell also, instead of buy
ing at stores everything eaten on the
farms.

STATE COLLEGES NOW
OFFER MARKET COURSES

A big, expensive obstruction will be
taken out of the road that leads from
producer to consumer when the bureau
OF markets, department OF agriculture,
extends marketing science to the ag-
rlcultural education agencies as is
now proposed. In growing his crop
the farmer has done only half of his
work; his own profits and the salts
faction of his customers aren OF as
sured until the product has been mar
keted efficiently. For seven years the
bureau of markets has been collecting
information upon this subject, and
this material has now been boiled
down into such shape that it may be
taught in schools and colleges along
with the other specialties and sciences
that GO into the profession of agri-
culture.

SAYS THE PICTURE
PLAYS THE THING
C%hallOner Uses Them Down in Vir.
ginia to Keep the Young Folks
On the Farm.

John Armstrong C%haloner, publicist
and capitalist, announced recently
that he had the right to answer the
song running, "How you gonna keep
'em down on the farm, after they've
seen Paree Dor New York, or Yon-
kers. He offered in proof a telegram
reading: "Great success; twenty-one
autos, 25O people"
1t was a report on the premiers of
his new motion picture theatre, which
he described as a cowshed, 50x35 feet,
heated by woodworking. stoves,
lighted by storage battery electricity
and situated two miles from Gotham,
Va, which consists of n store, one
blacksmith shop, a water tank and
two houses.
Down there, where only one thou
sand people live in ten square miles,
Chaloner is trying to prove that
the motion picture is the only thing
to keep people on the farm and to
counterfeit the drift to cities, recog-
nized as a peril to the coutry's food
production.
"My own help quit Mr.. Chaloner
said, land my farm of 400 acres is
idle, and that's why l started this
thing, for l want to raise crops again
And it also was my own gearing for
the movies when | am lonely on the
farm which led me to think that the
picture show might be the city's chief
lure.
What else does the city afford :?
The average man does not care much
for museums or libraries, the taste
for music must be cultivated, and the
vulgarity of the average actors voice
is objection enough to the theater.
One in ten can pronounce properly
the word real, and that is a sure
test of the actors polish. AS for the
women, you remember Shakespeare's
line. Her voice was ever soft, gentle
an low, an excellent thing in wom-
an?' Well, the voice of the usual
actress is never soft, unless she is
southern.
"The city's luxury merely tanta-
Lies and there is more and better
food in the country, so that honestly
| believe it is the soothing, romantic
merging of pictures and music in the
movie which draws the farmer to
town. To be sure about it, l am
keeping a record Of the number of
people attending the picture shows
which | am giving free, hoping that
the government will adopt the scheme.
"The state governments might bor-
row at interest from the national
government, or provide funds them
Selves, to supply all graded schools
more than five miles from a town
with a picture plant, costing only
$4,000. Charging a low admission, the
states would soon pay for the cost
and then be making a profit"
Mr.. Chaloner said that he would go
to his home at Gotham, Va, to pass
the winter at literary work, and per-
haps would make a speech in his
theater asking the adult farmers to
inculcate in their children the idea
that it is their patriotic duty to re-
main on the farm. He said that he
was making tests of the extent of
his amusement zone," and cooperat-
ing with motion picture companies to
provide good programs, including an
educational film a travelogue, a
drama and a comedy.

WATCH FOR CUTWORM SIGNS

Prof. R. A. Cooley, etomologist at
Montana State College at Bozeman,
has sent out a notice to farmers, ad-
vising them concerning the pale west
ern cutwom. which is doing some
damage in Montana and which cannot
at present be controlled.
"We ask that all farmers send in
specimens from fields that they think
are infected with the pale western
cutworm", says Prof. Cooley. "Other
species of the cutworm are possible
to control. Some farmers have given
up hope of a crop in fields where cut
worms were found, believing them to
be the pale western species. Where
specimens are sent to US we can de-
termine the species, and outline meth
DDS for control for all but the one
species"

BETTY COMPsON AT TRIANoN IN PENSIONERS OF LOVE-

Betty Compson, who scored d na- tional success as the leading femt- nine lead in The Miracle Man." Is in her first starring role at the Tria- non this week In Prisoners of Love" The picture is a very strong drama with an intense and absorb ing love theme, which forms the greater part of the interest. It is a theme on some aspects of the love or men and women that Is big and vital, and handled in a manner that Is especially interesting, in the las, half breathlessly interesting.
 Are all men alike? Just what part does protection play in the life of g girl? are the two most vital ques- tions propounded That many men do not villainously take advantage of an unprotected girl, but them selves find a girls protection an aid In living out their better instincts toward her, seems to be the author s idea. A queer twist of fate in the early part of the story has given the situation great significance to the spectator.
 The suspense of the story Is well handled. the outcome never being subject to guess work in any degree, a very thrilling climax topping many interesting incidents. Betty Comp son gives strong character sketch of girl who was called on to en- dure an unusual trial though she wins in the outcome. Ralph Lewis Is a center of interest as the father of the girl. with Emory Johnson and Roy Stewart in supporting roles.
