FIRE MENACE
DIMINISHED BY RAIN
Flames Still Rage in Western Mon
tana But Showers Help
Fighters

Although the small showers that WIS.,
tied Missoula and western Montana
recently, did not amount to great
deal, they were instrumental in help
ing foresters to control six dangerous
blazes in the Blackfeet forest. north
of that place, according to reports re-
eeived there.
The rains have not, however, reiiev-
ed the serious situation which is con-
fronting the forests to the northwest
and west. Several serious blazes still
are burning.
The Grouse creek fire, $50 miles
northeast of Standpoint, Idaho, which
has covered more than 10000 acres
of federal and private lands, is de-
scribed as one of the worst conflagra-
tons that has occurred in years. The
blaze broke out on property belonging
to the Humbird Logging company and
has destroyed 1900 acres of their TIM
Der as well as 10000 acres of govern
ment forest.
H. r. Flint, chief of fire protection,
who is on the scene, stated in mes
sage to headquarters here, that there
is little that can be done for the time
being to stop the flames.

Producing Quality First
Is Aim of Good Dairyman

The far-sighted dairyman has no
trouble in realizing that .one of the
biggest factors in his business Is to
market a frst-grade product. During
the past few years, attention has been
more forcibly paid to dairy products
as an essential human food. Through
the efforts of the National Dairy coun-
ell, the great army of physicians,
nurses, state and federal institutions,
the consumption of dairy products has
been slightly increased per capita.
This increase per capita can be
advanced tremendously when each
and every man who milks COWS real
ICES that he is like every one else in
business namely, that when he pro-
duces quality first, volume always
follows.
The best buttermaker on earth cam
not make first-grade butter from Sec
ond-grade cream. This summer let US
all renew our efforts to market
product of which we can be proud.
Get out the milk cooler, keep the
barn and surroundings clean and
sweet, wash the separator after every
time 1t is used, wash the cows udders
and brush them off a little oftener;
the details count, and attention to de.
tails pays-H. R. Lascelles, Fieldman

INCREASED INCOME j
DERIVED FROM COW

The number of dairy cows and the
interest in dairying has increased
greatly during the past few years.
This has been due to the greater in
come to be derived from dairy cows
during the period of depression. The
ouestion of overproduction has been
brought I'D in view of this dairy in
terest
1t is not the problem of overproduc-
ton which should concern us, but
rather the problem of encouraging real
dairymen to take up dairying and how
to keep them In business permanently
after they are once established.
Periods of depression have come be-
fore and many have taken up the
dairy COW. The fact to be regretted Is
that as soon as grain or cattle or any
other agricultural pursuit became
profitable again, large number d.
yorced the COW and gave up the bust
ness. VIII this occur again, and II SO,
how can it be prevented?
No man should undertake dairylng
unless he really likes cows, and no
man should begin before first making
the firm determination to stay with
the industry. Nothing is more dis
'turbing to agricultural economics than
the lack of permanency, consistency,
and stability. The farmer who is con-
stantly changing his agricultural bust
ness is usually "out' in times of high
prices for that industry and in" DUR
ing the times of low prices.
Since 1850 the ratio between our
population and our dairy cattle has
remained practically constant. From
1900 to 1920 our population increased
80 per cent. If this increases at the
same rate in the future, our popula-
ton will need more cows to maintain
the ratio. During recent years our
consumption of milk has increased,
and it will continue to increase as the
value of milk as food is realized

OIL NEW
Observation-Disclosures
TREASURESTATE ACTIVITY
BRIErL Y RECOGNIZED

The Midwest Refining company has
acquired more acreage on the Big Lake
structure of the Lake Basin, scene OF
Montana's newest oil discovery, 81
miles northwest of Billings, when a
drilling agreement invilving 200 acres,
well I'D towards the top in sections IL
and IA, a mile and half from Hepp
No. /. was entered into with f. q. Ost-
land of Minneapolis, who secured the
lease some time ago from the Harrison
Oil and Gas company.
Operations at the Hepp well are held
ND awaiting arrival of new control
head. The control formerly installed
was broken and hurried call was sent
TO other fields for another The hole
is still full of water pumped in to Kill
off gas pressure so as to render &C.
menting of the six-inch casing more
easy. Rigging up for Moddrell No. z,
a Midwest offset of the Hepp WELL is
continuing rapidly.
Interest in the structure continues
as keen as the first day the well was
brought In. New arrivals at the holes
attest to interest of other oil centers
in the discovery.
The impetus given development In
the Kevin-Sunburst field in the last
few days by the completion of the Eos
ter-Sweeney well near Sunburst, and
the Van Nicer well, was further stimu-
lated when the Observation-Disclosures NO.
2 was drilled into production Excite
ment which began to grow with the
completion Of the Sweeney well was
perceptibly increased when the van
Nicer well was brought in, but when
the Dakota Montana began to shurl oil
over the crown block there followed
the greatest stir the field has known
since the Kelvin and Sunburst discov-
cries were reported
The Gas Products company has
brought in another gasser on the BECK
man farm on the outskirts OF Baker
Gas was struck at the depth of 800
feet making this the shallowest gas
we'll in the Great Baker field. This
comes as somewhat of a surprise as
the well was drilled on the western
side of the anticline where it was sup
posed if gas was found at all, it would
be at a greater depth than where gas
has been found in the field. 1t plainly
proves as has been stated many times
by those in a position to know that
there are a great many surprises in
store when this great field is develop
ed. The Great Baker dome has never
turned out dry hole yet although
there have been about Is wells drilled
to date.

Balanced Ration Is Best
for Producing More Milk

Twenty good cows were recently
placed in an experiment at the ILL
nois agricultural experiment station,
and the results are very definitely In
favor of balanced ration. The ~
cows were divided into two lots, ana
during a preliminary period, both re-
ceived a balanced ration, which con-
sists of 80 pounds of corn silage, 8
pounds of clover hay, 4 % pounds or
gluten feed, 1-3 pounds of ground
corn. The nutritive ratio OF the ra-
ton is :6. After the first period,
one Of the lots was taken off of bal
anced ration, and given the following
instead: Thirty pounds of corn 81
lage. 5 pounds of timothy hay,
pounds Of clover hay, 8 pounds of
ground corn; nutritive ratio of I'll.
At the end of 131 days, lot l, which
had a balanced ration, had gained
from III to 1906 pounds of milk per
day. The lot which was changed to
an unbalanced ration gained from .O0
to 3O5. In other words, even though
the second lot was getting what many
dairymen might call at a glance
good variety of feeds, 1t was failing
to gain along with the balanced ration
by a long ways. This illustrates very
well the point we have made before:
Even though you may be feeding
roughage and grain you are not get
ting all the milk you could from the
same cows unless you know that the
feeds are balanced.
