Pure-Bred Sires Being Added to Herds of
Dairymem Inn The Yellowstone Valley

veloped and more farmers are taken
into the circle. AS has been said
there are now "a bulls so distributed
among farmers of the Yellowstone
valley. All that is required of the
farmer is that he keep accurate and
careful records; he receives the SER
vices of the bull without cost. With
in a few months seven more bulls
will be put out, and it is expected that
the increase will continue at the
rate of IL to Is each year. At the
present time, the bulls in service are
used in Sc herds and serve $50 head
of cattle. Bulls that reach the prov
en- sire class, are worth several thous-
and dollars each and yet the farmers
cooperating in this work, receive
their services without charge.
The five years that have already
been spent in this work in Montana
have been largely devoted to getting
the undertaking started. 1t is expect
ed that it will require period of 40
to so years to accomplish the hoped
for results of developing cattle that
can be depended upon to transmit
high milk producing qualities. Re
suits from the first generation of
Offspring are just beginning to come
in, and those in charge of the work
are satisfied that the first great step
in this important work has been sue
cesfully taken.

Crago animal trap, purely Montana
invention, which combines very light
weight with immense holding power
and high catch, catching tn body in
fifty per cent of the cases.
The company on this recent occa-
sion exhibited two sizes of traps,
their No. 4, weighing 6 II ounces, for
mink, marteen, and other small ami
mails, and their No. Z, which is used
for coyote, beaver, and larger game,
and weighing two pounds.
The headquarters of this COM
pany is located at 108 Spruce street,
Missoula, Montana, while the fac
tory is at Toledo, Ohio, in conjunc-
ton with the Bingham Stamping &
Tool company's plant.

The attendance at the Seattle ex-
position was over 100000 for the six
days, being an average of $1,000 for
each day, and of this enormous crowd
there were trappers from Alaska,
and almost every part of the north
west, who visited tn booth and mar
veled at the performance of this new
in animal traps.
For a period of eighty years all
animal traps have worked on the
same basic principle of jaws closing
the same way. The Crago trap has
completely revolutionized the trap
idea, and it is the porduct of the mind

BUFFALO INCREASING in
LARGE NUMBERS AT The
FEDERAL GAME RESER We.

What to do with about $50 Amer
lean bison and like number of elk,
each year, is problem confronting
officials of the United States biolog-
ical survey, under the direction OF
which the national bison range in
western Montana is conducted, ac-
cording to Frank Rose who is warden
of the big game refuge.
So rapidly have the herds of buff
falo and elk increased on the $4,000
acre range between Missoula and
Poison that there is grave danger of
the native grasses being destroyed,
unless portions of the elk and buff
falo are disposed of.
Provisions will be made therefore
to remove the surplus elk to other re-
serves, but the buffalo, unless re-
moved to public parks and zoologi-
cal gardens throughout the country
will be slaughtered and the meat
sold on the market this fall, Warden
Rose stated.
There are at present 1,400 big
game animals ranging in the refuge,
700 buffalo, 500 elk and the re-
mainder in deer and mountain sheep,
and room is to be made for flock
of antelope.
The surplus may be purchased by
individuals, societies or municipali-
ties for exhibiting purposes, at a
small cost.

that they had hard time to kill
him."
Such were the instructions given
White Shield by his father.
In considering this preparation
of White Shield for battle, as re-
counted by Grinnell, in "The Fight
ing Cheyennes," its psychological
effect should not be overlooked.
White Shield carried himself brave
ly; his confidence in himself; his
horse; and his quirt; was due, I'M
doubtedly to the stuffed kingfish-
er's influence, the medicine, and to
Spotted VOLTS instructions, but for
a reason neither of the Indians
could have understood.

you, make this noise (initating the
cry of kingfisher) and the bull
let will not hurt you" He took in
his mouth a little medicine and a
little earth, and raised the right
fore foot of the horse and blew a
little of this on the sole of the hoof,
and did the same thing on the right
hind foot, the left hind foot, and
the left fore foot. Then he blew
the medicine on the horse between
the ears, on the withers, at the end
of the name, and at the root and
end of the tail. Putting this on
the soles of his hoofs," said Spot
ted Wolf, Twill make him carry
himself lightly and not fall. When
you come in sight of the enemy
and are going to charge, put the
in your mouth and whistle.
That is what the kingfisher does
when he catches fish. You shall
catch one of the enemy. When you
see the enemy they may brighten
you SO that you will lose your mind
in battle, but I do not think this
will happen. You will brighten
your enemies before they will
brighten you. I have dressed you
fully for war. There are some
women with the party; you must
not ride by the side Of any of them.
Give me your quirt, SON."
He took some horse medicine
md rubbed it over the quirt and
aid: eff you see anyone ahead of
7ou and whirl your quirt about
our head, the mans horse will fall. |
When you charge try to keep on

Take pity on everyone. If you see

nine-tenths pounds. The range was
two pounds of hay in the ration, Civ
ing practically equal results.
5. No advantage in health OF
thrift of breeding ewees i'd hay and
sunflower silage over those fed al.
falfa or clover hay only was noted in
any of the tests.
6. Sunflower silage as the sole
feed for breeding ewes did not prove
satisfactory in one trial. During the
period that ewes were fed half the
usual feed of hay and all the silage
they would eat in addition, they held
up in weight very well. When fed
silage only for three weeks they lost
in weight at the rate of about one
third of pound day, losing a con-
siderable part of the reserve that
they should have had at LANDING
time. While fed silage only they ate
as much as six pounds per head daily
at first, but after two or three days
they would not eat more than five
pounds.
Z. A ration made up of five and
one-half pounds of sunflower silage,
one-half pound of oat straw and three
and six-tenths ounces of cottonseed
cake per eve daily gave fairly good
results in one test. The cost of this
ration at the prices prevailing was
the same as ration of al
falfa hay with which it was com
pared. The results obtained with
three and nine-tenths pounds of al
falfa hay per head daily were some
what more favorable as indicated by
the condition of the ewes. Other con-
ditions as to prices and feed supplies
might occur that would make the ra-
ton with no hay more economical.

From Montana State College

(" HE highest producing COW in
/ Montana gives more than $4,000
n pounds of milk in a year; there
are a great many others in this state
that only give about a tenth of this
amount. What is the cause of this
| great variation in milk production
Is it possible to definitely fix the
characteristic which will definitely
assure high milk production? BY the
careful selection of plants and the
elimination of those that are unde-
sirable, it has been possible to great
ly increase the per acre yield of
wheat by developing seed of high
producing habits. Is it possible by
the same means to develop cows that
will also have the high producing
habit fixed in them?
In the Yellowstone valley of Mon
tana a cooperative work between
farmers, the Montana Experiment
Station, the Montana State College
Extension Service, and various
branches of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, is being
conducted to determine this very
thing. Those who are working on
this problem are assuming that the
tendency to produce large quaint
ties of milk, can be definitely fixed,
just as the high producing qualities
of wheat can be definitely fixed, the
only differnec being that the work
of fixing this characteristic in cows
must necessarily cover long period
of time because of the time involved
in breeding and in arriving at the
age of production. In three genera
lions a single grain of wheat may re-
produce itself $4,000 times and this
would involve but three years, while
in similar work with cows, three
years time would find the first gen
Grafton, consisting of a single ami
NAL, just coming into production.

Station has distributed "a high-class

The PROPER FEED
BREEDING EWES
From Montana State College

wv HAT to feed the breeding eve
M is a question on many of the
Wv sheep ranches and farms OF
Montana. To answer that question,
DR.. w. Joseph of the Montana Elk
pertinent Station has carried on SER
les of feeding experiments with diff
ferent feeds available to the sheep
men of Montana. The results of
these experiments may be had by
those interested, in the form of bull
letin 1874, winter Feeding of Breed
ing Ewes" and may be secured with
out charge by applying to the Mon
tana Experiment Station, BoZeman,
Montana.
DR.. Joseph not only compares the
value of different feeds and differ
ent rations for eve feeding purposes
but also provides basis for compar-
ing costs.
In summary at the close of the bull
uetin, DR.. Joseph states:
1. A ration of four pounds per
head daily of good alfalfa or clover
hay proves satisfactory for lao to
10 pound bred ewes that were in
good condition at the beginning of
the feeding period.
2. In one trial of the value of
beets for replacing part of the hay
rations for breeding ewes, one pound
of stock beets replaced one-half
pound of hay and produced fully as
good results.
8. The average weight of sun
flower silage required to replace one
pound of hay in rations for breeding
ewes was approximately two and
