TRANK RAUNIG of Stockett

NKANh KAONIG OF OtOCkel
was the only Montana boy t.
attend the international Live
stock show in Chicago last month
He went there as the guest of Ar
mour's bureau of agriculture anc
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 Raunig pro-
duced more beef in less time and at
less expense than any of his compe-
titors. His Angus steer gained 800
pounds in 113 days, averaging 2.66
pounds a day, at a 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 a
day, at a cost of .0483 cents a pound.
Raunig's steer was out of a pure
bred Angus bull and a 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. j. 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
Show, he says:

Success on any farm depends first
of all upon the man who operates it,
according to M. L. Wilson, farm man
agement demonstration of the Mon
tana State college extension service,
the results of whose study of farms
and farmers in north central Mon
tana are summarized in a recent bull
letin of the Montana Development
association.
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.
IL lOAAo ih5 4 ShO P1OPooAN&OAo
announced by Mr.. Wilson:
/. 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 a 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 a good crop year,
the farmer must farm large acreage
which means cheap land-in order
to leash 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 8 to IL
horses, and efficient machinery;
g.. Proper tillage, including, of
course, the eradication of weeds and
the growing of corr as an inter-tilled
crop, will be an essential part of the
crop program;
Z. The farmer must plan a 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 n to 100 acres

"They took us into the room where
meat was stored. We found that il
was frozen, too. There was differ
ent kinds of meat, beef, veal, mutton,
pork, chicken, duck, goose, turkey
and venisoH, and some we did not

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.
"We soon joined the other groups
and all went up again into the room

had to wait about a half hour to get
our pictures taken for a movie.
While we were waiting we danced the

had a very enjoyable time.
