TRANK RAUNIG of Stockett
n was the only Montana boy to

~ was the only MOllldlld IVY ~
~ attend the international Live
stock show in Chicago last month
He went there as the guest OF Ar
mour's bureau of agriculture and
economics and was one of 500 boys
and girls in the United States to
attend the show as guests of the
Armour institution. His trip was
made possible by his winning first
prize, a cash premium of $3.50 paid
by Armour's, in the statewide baby
beef contest.
In other words, young Raunlg pro-
duced more beef in less time and at
less expense than any of his compe-
titors. His Angus steer gained 300
pounds in 113 days, averaging 2.66
pounds a day, at cost of .0366
cents a pound His nearest compe-
titor, Percy Sundberg of Spion Kop,
produced 637 pounds of beef in 259
days, an average of 2.46 pounds
day, at a cost of .0483 cents pound.
Raunig's steer was out of a pure
bred Angus bull and scrub COW.
This tends to prove, according to
stockmen, that purebred bulls of the
right characteristics are able to pro-
duce offspring that will make cheap,
rapid gains and also go into the show
ring and win laurels.
Frank Raunig is Is years old and
1922 was his first participation in
any of the boys club work of the
state. He has two brothers, how
ever, who have competed in club
work in past years, both of whom
are attending the state college at
Bozeman as a result of their winning
state prizes in the form of scholar
ships. ]. E. Young of Stockett was
leader of the boys baby beef club
in that section last year.
Writes Two Essays
AS a part of his work in winning |
his trip to Chicago, young Raunig |
had to write two essays. One was
entitled, "My Trip to the Interna-
tional Livestock Show" the other,
MY Story of the Fulton Cold Stor-
age Plant"
Of his trip to the International
snow, ne says.

Next morning we assembled anG
then stepped in an elevated train
which took us to the livestock show
where we saw some very good live
stock. That night we were enter
tanned at the Chicago theater, where
we saw a good movie.
Tuesday was known as the pack

went to Armour's packing plant. We
watched them butcher and cut up
cattle. They butcher sheep and
calves at the rate of 1000 an hour.
1--WE also watched the making of
lard and oleomargarine. We went
into the cooling rooms and saw many
halves of pure clean beef.
eve saw the big power plant they
have now, and the small one they
began with, which shows the increase
in their business. Armour's have
one of the biggest power plants in
the world.
Visited Field Museum
"Then came the banquet. We sang
and yelled; men from the plant gave
some very interesting speeches. Then
we went to the stockyards and saw
many carloads of very nice stock.
Next we went to Wilson & Co. for
dinner, which was welcomed, as we

wilson's Eight Points

The bulletin outlines eight PROPOSE
lions upon which, Wilson believes, a
permanent and successful agriculture
in that section must be built. Wilson
explained the scope, methods and
conclusions of the farm survey which
he directed for the college last sum
mer to directors of the association
who have announced that they will
cooperate to the fullest in extending
these surveys to other parts of the
state wherever practicable.
The following are the propositions
announced by Mr.. Wilson:
1. Success in that section, as in any
other, depends primarily upon the
personality and adaptability of the
farmer;
2. The first consideration of the
farmer must be to insure living for
himself and his family on his farm
through the necessary diversified
ton;
8. In that section it appears that
wheat will continue to be the major
cash crop;
4. While it cannot be expected that
every year will be good crop year,
the farmer must farm large acreage
which means cheap land-in order
to "cash in" when his good crop does
come;
5. Large acreages requires reduc-
ing expense of production through
cutting down labor by the use of
large teams, perhaps from to IL
horses, and efficient machinery;
6. Proper tillage, including, of
course, the eradication of weeds and |
the growing of corn as an inter-tilled |
crop, will be an essential part of the
crop program;
z. The farmer must plan reserve
of feed, seed and cash to tide him
over no-crop years, which he must
anticipate;
8. "Dry land irrigation" by util-
izing the water run off during sea-
sons of excess precipitation, will in
sure crops on from one to 100 acres
on SO per cent of the farms in that
region.

Visits Fulton Plant

From here we went to the Fulto1
Cold Storage company, where W.
had our last banquet in Chicago.
"The next day, Friday, I sale
goodbye to my new friends and start
ed for home"
OF the visit to the Fulton PLAN
Raunig says:
1--WE went to visit the cold storage
plant about 1880 p. M, December q
1872. AS we entered we were sep
arated into small groups of about Is
and a gentleman from the plant was
our leader. He took us in an eleva-
tor and up we went to the top of the
building. We walked out on the
roof and looked down on the streets.
People looked about the size of mos
quitoes down there, then we went
back into the building into a room
about below zero, into another
room below.
eve went into the apple room
where many thousand boxes of apples
were stored; from there to the room
where many small fruits were stored
We were very surprised to find them
as hard as stones and as cold as ice.
we dlSO WGuL luIO Iu6 TOOm
where eggs were packed. l noticed
that each egg was tested by an ex-
perienced tester and that IL dozen
were put in each case by other men.
They were then taken into the room
where they were stored. We were
shown this room and told that it was
kept at an even temperature of
about 80 above zero.
Had Picture Taken
''They took us into the room where
meat was stored. We found that it
was frozen, too. There was differ
ent kinds of meat, beef, veal, mutton,
pork, chicken, duck, goose, turkey
and venison, and some we did not
see, think.
'From there we went into the
power plant and saw many large
wheels turning. Here they gave us
nuts and apples, which we certainly
enjoyed.
1--WE soon joined the other groups
and all went up again into the room
which was s below zero, where we
had to wait about half hour to get
our pictures taken for a movie.
While we were waiting we danced the
snake dance to keep warm. The boys
and girls from the south thought
hey would freeze to death, but I
vas quite comfortable as I am out
n weather about 40 below some
lines.
"After we had our pictures taken |
We went to the Sherman hotel for
old storage dinner. They served |
lothing but cold storage food. Some |
vas stored very long, but all was
cry good, just like fresh, especially |
he cherry pie a la mode. We all |
lad very enjoyable time.
eve were all thankful to the hosts
s I think the benefit we received
vas worth great deal, as none or
art of us had any idea about cold
forage before our visit to the plant. !

WARNING

Unless we receive the cooperation of the public in conserving the water supply, We will be forced to shut off the mains for a portion of each day. In this event customers unprotected pipes will be in greater danger of freezing, and we ask that under no circumstances should water be al lowed to escape through faucets left open for that purpose.

BREEZY BATCH OF NEWSITEMS
 FROM CHITINA

The records of the Commissioners office at Chitina show that for the year 1922, the fees for fur dealers licenses and pelt taxes amounted to $1400, which represents something like $40,000 forth of furs shipped from the Copper River Valley during the year.
 Now that the fur tax law is thor oughly known and understood its en- forcement will be more rigid; traders and trappers should inform them selves and act accordingly. Anyone who trades or traps without meet ing the requirements of the law is taking a very foolish and unreason- able risk The law requires that trappers shall, in their reports on the first of August, account for all furs taken, and pay the pelt tax on all furs not sold to licensed dealer or his authorized agent. Last year considerable leniency was shown be- cause the law was not entirely. under stood. It will not be the same this year. The following are the licensed fur dealers and their authorized agents at the present time:
