CuIling to Increase Eggs

A sure mean of increasing egg
production by proper culling was
given in an exhibit entitled make
your poultry pay" shown by the de-
partment of agriculture at the Inter
national Livestock exposition.
Two pens of live chickens were
shown. One lot of IL hens was not
culled, and ate in one year 900 lbs.
of feed, costing $2O.7O. The IL hens
laid 100 dozen eggs during the year.
Contrasted with this lot is one of
eight hens which were culled, and
which laid the same number of eggs
but ate only 600 pounds of feed, at
a cost of $3.50. The lot of IL hens
that was not culled ate SO per cent
more feed than the lot that was Gull
ed and produced no more eggs. The
extra cost of feed, however, is but
one of the larger costs. The others
are the extra labor, extra housing
room, and extra capital invested.
To enable the p~oultryman to Gull
his hens properly the exhibit gives
the paints to be looked for when de-

Nearly everyone knows that
Grimm alfalfa is a very desirable
variety to grow but how many Mon
tana farmers a distinguish this
from other varieties or tell anything
about it's early history?
According to experts in the depart
ment of agriculture, the variety
takes its name from one Wendelin
Grimm, who, when he left his home
in Baden, Germany, in 1857, to
settle in Glover county, Minnesota,
brought along Is or 20 pounds of
Everlasting clover" from his old
home. This seed was sown in Mime
sofa in the spring of 1858. Accounts
differ as to it's hardness and success
at first attained with it. However,
a sufficient number of plants sur
vived the winter to enable Grimm to
save small quantities of seed from
time to time for future sowings.
When Seed Came High
The first considerable quantity
was produced in 1867 when $50
pounds were threshed from three
acres and sold in Minneapolis for SO
cents a pound. During subsequent
years Grimm's neighbors attempted
to grow alfalfa from seed produced
in other parts of the United States,
but in practically every ase the SOW
ings we're entirely winter killed while
a good portion of the Grimm plants
came through in good condition. In
1905 the department of agriculture
began to experiment with this variety
and since that time it has been grown
in comparison with a large number
Of other varieties and strains and in
practically every case has proved it
self the equal and generally superior
20 any of these for hardness.
To the casual observer, the Grimm

TO HEAT WATER
FOR THE STOCK DIM WINTER

without it than drink any more.
This results in a bad situation fol
they do not get abe amount they
should have to keep them in good
health and it seriously affects their
ability to digest the feeds given
them. In order to digest the food
they have eaten it must be mixed
with water and the digestive liquids
so as to become semi-liquid in char
acter. When the water supply is
reduced there is not enough of it in
the digestive tract to mix with the
food and the ability of the animal to
digest the food is decreased. This
condition causes impactions in the
digestive tract which are injurious to
the good health of animals and may
cause their death.
Cattle which are on the winter
range when it is covered with snow,
usually pick up a little snow with
each bite of grass and as a result
need much less water from regular
watering places than do cattle being
fed hay or straw on the snow. Where
water is scarce or exceedingly cold
it will be well worth while to use
this method of feeding in preference
to feeding in racks or letting the
run to the straw stacks.
Water that is fresh from the
ground usually is warm enough so
that the cattle may drink freely of
it without becoming chilled and
where springs that do not freeze over
or that can be kept clear of ice are
available, the water supply will cause
but little trouble during the winter.
But when they are not available
the water should come from wells
or twice a day rather than from
a hole cut in the ice. Where troughs
or tanks are available and water can
not be furnished fresh from the earth
it should have the chill taken off by
means of a tank heater rather than
to have 1t used from the troughs or
tanks at a very low temperature.

TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
MONTANA CROWN GRIMM
ALFALFA SEED is HARDEST

! alfalfa does not differ materially
from the common strains, but a close
examination will show a greater div
ersity of form, upright and dropping
plants often occurring side by side.
While most of the flowers are of the
same color as those of the common
alfalfa there are a few that are green
ish, smoky or blackish and occasion
ally a plant is found with yellow
flowers. The tap roots show a ten
dency to branch and the crowns to
be low set and spreading, character
istics which are undoubtedly of great
Importance in rendering a variety
resistant to cold.
Montana Grown Seed Best
When Grimm alfalfa first began to
demand attention all of the seed was
grown in Minnesota but as condi-
lions there were not favorable to seed
propagation, stock was sent to Mon
tana in order that the available sup
ply might be more rapidly increased.
Carefully conducted tests of Grimm
alfalfa seed produced in Montana in
dictate that it has not lost any of it's
hardness from being grown under
changed conditions and, in fact, the
Montana grown seed is probably
more hardy than the parent stock.
Tests conducted in North Dakota
show that Montana grown Grimm al
falfa suffered no loss from winter
killing while in some other varieties
tested over 35 per cent of the plants
killed out. Tests conducted by the
Montana experiment station have al
so shown the Grimm variety to be
more resistent to winter injury than
any of the common types.
There is a big demand at good
for Montana grown Grimm al
falfa seed and Montana alfalfa grow
ers do we'll to cater to this demand.

There probably is no phase of the
w~intering of beef cattle that is more
neglected than the water supply, says
Dick Millin, livestock specialist of
the Montana extension service. And
yet a good water supply is a great
necessity in wintering cattle, particu-
larly when they are receiving hay or
straw.
The water from creeks that are
covered with dep ice usually is so
cold that the cattle will not drink
enough of it to give them all they
need. They take a few sips of the
icy liquid and then go away SILVER
ing. They have not drunk enough
to satisfy either their needs or their
desire, for it is SO cold that after
drinking enough to take the edge off
their thirst they would rather do

BIackIeg Vaccination in Montana

DR.. M. E. Knowles, former state
veterinarian for Montana, now state
distributor for Lederle Biologics, says
that Lederle Blackleg Aggressin, a
vaccine being commonly used by the
Montana pure bred cattle breeders
and range cattle men, is uniformly
successful and popular among all the
cattle interests that are using it.
The fact that he was the originator
of state distribution for government
vaccine adds zest to his interest in
vaccination against blackleg, and in
the effective results now being re-
ported folling the use of Lederle Ag-
gressin.
Many thousand calves and year
lings, and several thousand two-year-
Odds have been vaccinated with Led
erie Aggressin during the past year,
of which DR.. Knowles has a record,
without a single loss from blackleg
among this number. In fact, so far
as is known in this country, where
careful supervision is maintained,
there has been no report of loss from
blackleg among cattle where Lederle
Aggressin has been employed to pro-
tect them.
Lederle Blackleg Aggressin Is OBJ
tainable in every civilized country on
the globe, and requires no commenda-
ton to those who have used it, of
whom there are many thousands In
the United States.
Cattle of any age can be protected
Lederle Aggressin against black
leg, but it Is perhaps better to vac
calves after weaving, unless
the disease is occurring among them,
when it can be used with assurance
Of success in younger calves.
Lederle Aggressin, or any of the
curative or preventive biologics pre-
pared by this company, a be pur-
chased from DR.. M. E. Knowles, Hell
sna, or from any graduate veterinary
surgeon in Montana.

Build Up Energy

Then, too, the system of the horse
cannot quickly accustom itself to
handing a lot of grain in place of the
straw and other forage. If grain is
fed for a few weeks before spring
work opens the horse gets in shape to
turn out the energy from concen-
trated feed by the time it is called
upon to do it.

termining a poor layer or a good lay
er. These points are quickly learned
and are Means of increasing profits
from the poultry.
The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1923-01-04

The $50 or $50 that it costs a far
mer to feed a horse a year is a con-
siderable item in the annual ex-
penses. 1t is important chiefly be-
cause it is multiplied by four, six, or
eight, and sometimes more, accord
ing to the number of horses required
to till the farm. Some farmers sue
ceed in feeding a horse for less than
$50 a year; more men pay a still
higher cost.
Cheap horse feed is needed. Grain
is costly, hay is high, and pasture
sometimes difficult to obtain. More
reliance on cheap but palatable and
healthful roughage offers the best
chance for c~heapening horse cost.
Some horses are wintered we'll with
little expense.
Dat Straw and Alfalfa
Dat straw and a small daily feed
of alfalfa or clover hay have been
used successfully on many farms.
With a bit of legume hay to balance
the ration somewhat and give variety
and the consequent encouragement
to consume more feed, the idle horses
do even better than they would on
a ration containing considerable
grain.
From the middle of March until
spring a horse needs some grain to
give the strength for the hard work
that is to follow. Somehow a horse
maintained all winter on roughage
alone has a tendency to be weak in
the spring.

WELFARE CONFERENCE TO MEET HERE IN 1924
Atlanta Committee Will Decide Date
 Of Local Convention

The Southern Regional Child Well fare Conference has chosen Birming- ham, Ala, as it's convention city in 1924. at the conference which closed in Atlanta Wednesday night. A com mittee has been appointed to decide upon the date of the meeting.
 Immediately following the welfare conference a ,meeting was held of all the state boards of public welfare of Virginia, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Reso- lutions were adopted at this meeting indorsing a national criminal identi- fication bureau. This. members said. would greatly aid welfare workers in tracing fathers who have deserted their children.
 The executive committee named at this time is composed of Prof. How ard Odum, University of North Caro- lima. chairman; Miss Rhoda Kauff- man. Georgia board of public vel fare; Ralph s. Barrow, Birmingham: Judge w. S. Criswell, Jacksonville. Fla; G. Croft Williams. Columbia. S. C.: Dr. Underwood. Jackson, Miss; Mrs. Claude Sullivan, Nashville; Mrs. G. B.

FILM STATISTICS

According to statement Of re- sponsible manufacturer. there was an output of 65o,OO0.000 feet of mo- tion picture film for 1921, and about the same for 1922. This is enough film to go five times around the earth at the equatCr. At the usual rate of Approximately a foot per second, it would take a single oper- ator 1S0000 hours to proJect 1t; or, working 25 hours per day, 7,50O days 20 years and months. It contains enough guncotton, according to best estimates, to blow up II battleships, with the Brooklyn bridge thrown in for goo dmeasure. If it were ignited flame under a kettle half mile across and Of proportionate height, filled with water, the water would boil throughout.
 As a final blow, it may be pointed out that, at the traditional rate of Is pictures per foot, there have been no less than 10,400 100000 individual pictures displayed to us on the screen during the year--assuming, what is far below the truth, that each piece of film has been run but once.

 Althogether an export business in- volving 10000 tons of coge has been recently closed and more would have been closed but for the growing scarcity of coke. Foundry coke, which was at SS, advanced first to ss.5O and the spot price Thursday was nearer s9 than any other. Sew eral coke spot makers are out of the market.
 There has also come to the front a demand from abroad for Alabama iron, but there seems little prospect of much business in that quarter on account of the sold-up condition of Alabama furnaces based on the dom estic demand.

CIVIL SERVICE BOARD SUSPENDS POLICEMAN
Also Hears Case Of Fireman West
 On Drink Charge

Police Officer J. E. Phillips, charged with assault in arresting John Pearson, negro, near the Hill man hospital, on February g, was suspended 10 days from the service. beginning March Is, by the civil service board in a meeting begun at S:5o Thursday night. Evidence was heard on the case of W. B. West, fireman, charged with disorderly con duct on an alleged drinking party case was postponed until the next meeting of the board on Monday night, March 19.
 Action on all applications of spe- cial officers. policemen and firemen was deferred by the board until the next meeting.
 Opening the trial of W. B. West, fireman, charged with disorderly con- duct on the fifth floor of the Lyric building on February II, M. c. Tucker testified that West had been a mem- Der of the party composed of himself. R. M. Burneil and J. E. Phillips on that date.
 J. F. smith was next placed on the stand.
 Smith stated he had seen Tucker trying to force West to take drink against his wishes.
 George Bennett and Mir. Weir, both Of Weir Brothers company, next tes- ufied West had come to their place, apparently sober, and had hired a car at 2:30. returning 1t at 5:30. Four firemen from Station 1, Capt. J. R. Smith, II. A. Bell, Gossett and c. E. Crossett. were next interrogated and all said West had reported for duty at o'clock bearing no signs of in toxication.
 West testified he had met Bur nell and Tucker downtown Sunday morning and had taken drink with them Immediately after the trouble, he claimed, he went to the Weir com pany place and hired a car, returning 1t at 5:30 and reporting for duty be- fore 6 o'clock.
 Questioned by John Altman re- garding his interpretation of fire department rules in regard to drink. West said he understood it to be forbidden to drink on duty or around the station, but said he had not considered it contrary to rules to take a drink off duty, as long as his efficiency on duty was not af- fected. Chief Akin, questioned by the board, said he considered all his firemen on duty while in the city limits. West had served with the apartment four and half years. Chief Akin stated. and had never been previously reported for drink ing. He is at present driver of No. s squad truck at No. 1 station.
 A motion to postpone judgment of the case and adjourn was carried over the opposition of J. E. Lacey.

BIDS COME IN FOR. LARGE EBY-PRODUCT. AT EMPIRE
President Walter Moore Says They Expect to Let Con-
 tract by April l

Plans and specifications for a 5O- oven by-product plant have been re- ceived from one coke oven maker by the Empire Coal company, and Walter Moore, president, states that other bids are about ready and the company expects to be in position to let contract by April 1. MT. Moore will go east again next week to further plans.
 We will have a 5O-oven plant" said Mir. Moore with a daily capa- city of about 1000 tons of the best cake there is our coke will be es- pecially suitable for us where an and west and We have arranged for a broad distribution of the product in that quarter. The radiator makers are also interested in coke suitable for burning in the furnaces which they manufacture and that will also be a feature of the product of the Empire ovens. The coke naturally will be suited to all the other pur- poses which good coke serves"
 O O O
 Coke High In Carbon
 The analysis of Empire coke is 93.60 carbon and 6.S0 ash. There is only 10 volatile matter and 50 sul- phur. It has always been recognized as high quality.
 MT. Moore says that he does not propose to waste any of the by product gas coming out of the ovens. but that the 5000 ,000 feet of daily production will be utilized for fuel purposes by other industries and through means adapted for its dis tribution.
 We hope to let contract for build ing the plant by April" said MT. Moore, fin which event we ought to be producing coke by November.
 The plant will cost between $1.500,- 900 and s2.000 000. it is estimated, all though MT. Moore makes no specific statement in that quarter.
