HEAVY LOSSES FROM HAIR
LESS PIGS THIS SPRING

Stockgrowers Of Montana this
spring have experienced very heavy
losses from the birth of hairless pigs,
according to DIR. Howard WEIGH of the
Montana Experiment Station This
loss was ~preventsbie by the use of
additional iodine in the feed of the
pregnant Sow during the winter, but
many growers who suffered no loss
last wear ignored warning that they
should prepare against such loss this
spring. Most of the loss this spring
has been ~occasioned in eastern Mon
tana where it has been found that feed
is lacking in iodine content necessary
for the pregnant sow. Stock growers
who wish to prevent this loss next
year may write to DIR. Weich at the
Experiment Station at Bozeman for
detailed instruction.

How often have you felt that way?
How often have you wished for some
thing to give you genuine and lasting
relief from gas?
Don't buy any ordinary dyspepsia
tablets for temporary results. Go to
a first class drug store and ask for a
bottle of genuine Baalmaan's Gas Tab
lets. Take three an hour before meals
and again three after eating-then
watch. Now m a surprise. No
more gas, no more smothered feeling,
no difficult breathing, ne bloatfng.
Remember, Baalmaan's Gas Tablets
are not only for the relief of gas, but
also for the prevention of gas. Most
people with gas suffer from
dyspepsia-not common Indigestion.

Eastern Publication
Boosting Montana

Billings.-The good news of Mon
tana's united effort to make this state
the first northwestern state to come
back, is attracting wide and favorable
attention among investors outside the
state. The statewide summer tillage
movement and the effort of business
men. as well as farmers, to assist in
the promotion of better farming meth
DDS and the encouragement of diversi-
fled agriculture is the most convincing
argument that prosperity is soon TO
come, says eastern publications.
The most extensive article covering
this subject that is carried in the
Northwestern National Bank Review,
a publication issued by the second
largest bank in Minneapolis, com
menting upon this situation. This
conservative publication devotes near
fy six columns of it's last issue to dis
GUESSING the plan as it is being worked
out in this state, and the probable
results that would come from it. The
article says in part; at is an in
spring thing to see a great movement
sweep a state when that movement is
a forward looking one and is designed
for the common good"
It sketches briefly Montana's agri-
cultural history, commenting on the {
array Of prizes won at the J
San Franciso fair; it comments on I
the drouth years which have followed, '
but states that Montana people are de- q
termined to meet this situation in an /
effective way. 1t says at has not c
been the Montana land that has given {
the Disappointing results, as many of S
our Montana friends have pointed out, Q
but the methods commonly used in l
working it. Hence the summe tillage

advocated has been used in other sec a

Past Winter Heavy
Hay Feeding Year

The May report Of the Montana CO.
operative crop reporting service saws
that the amount of hay fed during
the past winter was the largest in the
history of the state and that very lit
tie of last years crop n left. The
report also states that the loss of
livestock from disease was light and
that Montana stock are unusually free
from disease, but that the loss from
exposure has been fairly heavy. Live
stock have suffered from the long
cold winter and lack Of early range
The 1921 hay crop was estimated at
100000 tons on May 1, 1921, SO per
cent of the 1920 crop was left on
farms, making available for the past
winter about 3,358,000 tons and
at the present time the carry-over is
but 6 per cent of the 1921 crop. This
is the largest amount fed since the
federal department Of agriculture has
been obtaining crop and livestock in
formation. Many localities that ap-
parently had a large surplus of hay do
not have a sufficient supply for spring
work.
The acreage of tame hay for this
year is 5 per cent larger than last
year, considerable alfalfa and clover
will be seeded and there is q decided
tendency to grow forage crops in con-
nection with the diversified program.
Practically no loss of alfalfa has been
reported and the hay outlook is very
favorable. (:

ment or placed in an upper foor win
dow where there is heat and sunlight,

and sunlight in Importance is suffi-
Client moisture to urge growth.
When the plants have reached an
age when they are large enough to be
removed from the flat-without injury
to the roots, they should be trans
planted to small pots or berry baskets
anything that will hold the soil and
little moisture. Cartons serve this
purpose very well.
Another transfer of the plant is
advisable as the roots became matted

II not large enough. 1t will be noted
that larger container will soon
be found too small, and that an ad-
ditioual repotting will be advanta-
geous, II a larger and healthier plant is
desired. Many careful gardeners make
at least three transplantlngs before
the plant is set out in the open. BY
that time II is strong enough to battle
the elements with the possible ex-
ception of frost.
In setting the plant in the open, by
this careful and interesting method Of
transplanting, the roots intact with
the mass Of soil clinging, may be
transferred in a manner that not the
slightest injury In done to the tender
roots and soon the plant has taken
hold in Its new home In a manner
that will astonish the inexperienced
cottage gardener-in fact II Is not un-
common for plants In the more sd-
vanced stage Of development to be
In blossom or bearing small fruit.
Plants such as tomatoes transplanted
In the open In this manner should be

and four inches deep and at once cover
with newspaper to help hold the
heat for longer time. After few
days or whenever the soil has dried out
enough the seed may be planted.
Young plants grown in this treated
soil not only have white, sound roots,
but also have healthy, vigorous ap-
pearance above grousd. Besides this,
seeds sprout better and the plants
grow much faster than those planted In
untreated, soil.
Ordinarily diseased seedlings are
lighter green color and are somewhat
smaller than healthy plants and have
sickly appearance. These signs Of
disease on the young plants, however,
may not be noticed and still the trouble
may be present on the roots and de-
veiop after the plants are set In the
garden.
To find out II diseases are present,
always examine the roots of young
plants before setting them out. II sf-
fected by molds or fungi, dark dead
patches may be seen on the roots A.

II Disease Spores are Not Eliminated
Plants Will Become Diseased

To be sure of obtaining healthy
young plants for transplanting to the
home garden or elsewhere, treat the
soil in the seed box with boiling water
a few days before planting Most all
soils commonly used for seed beds con-
tain one or more kinds Of harmful
molds or fungi and in addition, in the
South, destructive eelworm which
causes a disease of many garden crops
commonly called rootknot.
Recently it has been learned by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture that seed-bed soil can be made
reasonably free from these plant enc
mics by this simple hot-water treat
ment. If disease spores are not killed,
plants grown In such soil will usually
become diseased and die, or else will
remain stunted and sickly. 1t is be-
cause of the transplanting Of such dis
eased seedlings that many of the poor
crops or failures in the home garden
occur. Every gardener should there
fore learn how to recognize troubles OF
young plants and become familiar with
the method here described for prevent
ing them.
Before treating the soil II should he
placed in the box ready for seeding.

The suggestion is made that the
legislature first fix the tax levy and
then bring appropriations within the
levy. That is fine suggestion ana
the only way by which there will be
any reduction. Then if the approprl-
alton Dill gets beyond the income
from this levy another source OF IN
come will have to be prvided or some
cut made in the appropriation Dill
Just as sure as the appropriation oll!
is made up and then the levy is liked
there will be mighty little prospect
of cutting down the levy. And there
is no sense in holding the approprl2-
tion and supply bills to the end OF
the session. They should be the hrst
measures acted upon by the leglsIa-
ture at the very beginning Of the ses-
sion. We have known the appropria-
ton bill to be fixed up and changed n
the very closing hours of the session
when the great majority of the mem
bers had left for their homes.

Mr.. S. C. Dobbs, a millionaire
banker and cotton exporter from A.
lanta, was in Anderson the other day
and is quoted by the Anderson I'll
bune as follows:
eve can not hope to compete Wa
the middle West in the gorWth CT
corn: we can not expect to grow
wheat for market in competition with
the Dakotas, but We can beat them
bv growing cotton. We can grow CO.
ton despite the boil weevil, the plri
boil worm or any other chronological
pests and it will forever be the money
crop of the Southland"
The Herald and News has said this
so many times that we are glad u
have this endorsement Of cur views
from big fnancier who came fro.a
the country and has made money ar l
has studied the cotton business from
all viewpoints.
We can not in this favored land CT
ours surrender to an insect, even III
the face of the damage it did to the
crop the past year. We must not e1-
pect to grow cotton to buy all the
food we need, but as for the money
crop, it is the only ore we may dc
pend on in this section, and nature
has so fixed it. The same old story
and the same old gospel that The
Herald, and News has preached for the
past thirty years and more, that the
only way to succeed in farming in this
country was to grow what you need
for the farm on the farm and make
cotton your surplus crop.

COMING AROUND

We are glad to see things moving
around the right way. Many years
ago The Herald and News took up the
fight to have the old court house made
into a sort of community house, and
to use the two front rooms as res,
and reception rooms for the men and
the women, and the three back rooms
turned into one room and made pub
lie library. 1t would be ideal.
We note with pleasure that the
highway commission has agreed to
let one of the rooms be used by the
library association. 1t is coming
around and sooner or later our entire
platform for the use of this building
will be adopted.
When the question was submitted
to the voters of the county on having
the building torn down and taken ctf
of the square The Herald a::I News
opposed the idea, and we Won oy .
small majority We took the p5-:-
tion then that it w&s too good house
to be torn down, and could 5e use1
for too many good purposes, and that
Newberry h&d in this building ar
ideal place for real Community
house. Car plan then was to use the
entire building and the upstai.s for
pua3;> meeting place. Since the
legion IS using this foc practically the
same purpose, that is all right, be-
cause it carries out in marked de-
gree the very notion We had.
Now the lower floor could be made
into an ideal community house and
rest places and library. And the base
ment could be fitted up with toilets
ard bath rooms and shower baths
where the tired traveller could rest and
refresh himself, and if we had such a
place a great many more of the tour
lists would take advantage of break
ing TIE journey by a rest at this place,
and then what a fine place i would
be for cur own people. 1t will all
come around, but it viii take time.
You have to keep telling the people
even OF the gre2. advantages which
they have right at their own door ard
within their own grasp. and finally
they will see il themselves. The old
courthouse for an ideal community
house and q public library.
