PAN-AMERICAN
MAIL PROJECT
is DISCUSSED
Capitals of Six Countries
Would be Linked Under
Proposed Plan
ROUTE OF SERVICES

Washington, Oct. l6.-An air mail
service linking the capitals Of the
six central American republics with
the United States is being discussed
by Latin-Amerisa gan, governments
With American officials. The pro-
posal has advanced to the stage
where American officials Rave been
designated to 20 over the ground
and pass upon the feasibility Of the
scheme These officials will con
duct preliminary negotiations with
the central American governments
and upon their return to the th!tea
States Il decision will be made.
The route Of the proposed service
has been mapped out. Mail planes
would go from Key West TO la-
wanna, thence westward across Cuba
lance covered from Key West to
and the iucatan channel and south
ward TO Guatemala City. The dis
Guatemala City would be about $50
miles. From there the air mani
ships would head southeastward TO
San Salvador City, 100 miles away,
From there to TeguiGalpa, 1ondu-
ras, is approximately l2o miles and
from there to Mangua, Nicaragua,
is 2G0 miles. To San Jose, Costa
Rica, the distance is 220 miles more
and from there to Panama $50 miles.
I'm all. the route would be about
1000 miles.
Mailservice by steamer to some Of
the central American countries IS
very poor and the officials Of those
governments are anxious to improve
their facilities.

ANIMALS KILL
1900 SHEEP ON THE RANGE

Predatory animals and poisonous
plants were the principal factors in
causing a loss of approximately per
cent of the total number of stock and
sheep grazed on the national forests
of district number one during the
last year. Permits for 170,8G6 cat
tile and 705,393 sheep were issued
during the season and the losses were
1,615 head of stock and 1888 sheep.
Coyotes caused heavy sheep losses
on the Absaroka, Deer Lodge, Jeffer-
son, Lolo and Nez Perces forests,
where they killed more than 200 on
each during the season. Bear killed
1875 sheep on the Selway forest and
$50 on the Lolo, Clearwater and Nez
Perces. Predatory animals killed a
total of 273 cattle and 1894 sheep,
wolves being the principal stock kill
ers, doing the most damage on the
Jefferson, Madison and Custer.
Lupine was found only on the Gal
latin and loco on the Absaroka, where
SO head died from eating that plant.
Larkspur and water hemlock were
other poisonous plants which caused
losses. The total number of strays
to disappear were 113 cattle and s.
"a sheep. Forest fires caused prac-
tically no losses, stockmen and
sheepmen reported.

ZAWADKE AlKALl GRASS
PREPARING THE SEGDBED

, always be packed firmly before the
seed is put in.
If it is not feasible to level the
land, a covering of straw or manure
will generally keep it from FLOWING
when very wet. have found it very
satisfactory to SOW the seed on such
places and then cover the surface
with straw or hay.
When these instructions are fol-
lowed this grass will grow, and pro-
duce large crop on either white or
black alkali. 1t will make fair
crop the first year and a full crop
the second year, and stand more sum-
mer drought than any grass | have
ever seen. The third year will be
still better than the second year.
When it starts up it grows very
fast, and should be cut as soon as it
is fully headed out. 1t commences
to bloom when the head is about half
way out of the boot If the season is
very dry it may not completely head
out and it is better to cut it before
it bleaches. Cut it under these cir
when it commences to
bleach.

1.-THE land should be leyeled, so thai
i in the thawing or hard rains thai
more or less liquify alkali soils
it will not run. When the surface
soil moves in that way termination
of the seed then in the ground is
stopped and the plants fail. To re-
seed without leveling will be but to
repeat the failure. When the land is
leveled it should be plowed and har-
rowed much the same as any other
land. This Zawadke alkali grass
seed should be planted 2 to 21a lbs.
to the acre. For pasture lbs. may
be better. 1t should be planted early
in the fall or early in the spring so
that it can form its roots before the
land gets too dry.
The seeds seem to find their way
a proper distance into the ground
without covering, and my experience
is that when I covered the seeds they
were too deep and failed. 1t is bet
ter to keep stock off for a year or
more so that the ground will not be
tramped while the plant root is form
ing. This is especially important in
the spring when the ground is very
SOFT
Manure on the surface seems to
help at any time, and it may be
disked, but 1 have found the best re-
suits by leaving it on the surface.
Straw goes we'll as surface dressing
on alkali soils for this kind of grass.
A heavy coat of straw is found to be
very good on those patches where the
alkali forms a white crust on the
surface and the I've is so strong that
it seems no plant can stand it. On
these extra strong patches have put
on the straw and cut it with disk
and then give it the seed. This, of
course, after I had the land as level |
as I could get it. The surface should |

FIathead Farmers Testing Cows

The farmers of the Flathead prof.
ect have recently organized coop
erative COW testing association, this
being the third such organization of
its kind in the state.
G. H. Griswold of Moiese, who has
had considerable experience with this
type of work, was elected president.
The other officers are: Lars Beck of
Round Butte, vice president; f. c..
Becker of Charlo, secretary and treas
urer. Two other men to act with
these three as directors, are L. r..
Strum of Valley View, and Earl
Mutchler of Reservoir valley.
Enough farmers to provide 26 days
work for the tester constitutes the
organization. The tester makes
monthly visits to each farm and while
there secures records of production
of each COW and feed costs, so that
at the end of the year the profitable
cows only need be retained.

PLENTY FOOD FOR
GOOD BROOD sow
BY DIR. ID. e. JOSEPH
Montana State College

"IIE SOW that raises two litter:
year must have more liberia
allowances of feed during the
dry period than a sow that
raises but one litter year. Ir
raising but one litter year, a sow
that is sucked down to a thin con-
dition has long period for build
ing UP her condition for raising
another litter. AS a result she may
be carried through the summer and
fall on pasture and grain stubble
and then fed little more generous
" from breeding time until farrow-
ing time if she has not picked up in
condition before that time.
Attempts to follow this method
of procedure during the dry period
with sows that are used to raise two
filters a year has resulted in weak
filters at narrowing time and few
or no pigs raised. This has been
experienced repeatedly and no ex-
ception has been noted. A dry pc
Rod of not less than IS days on
fairly generous feed seems to be re-
quired to put sows that are sucked
down to only moderately thin con-
dition in shape to farrow large lit
tiers of strong pigs and to give the
required flow of milk for starting
&l,a,,, aff rrOra,-Ity
1t is false economy to attempt to
save grain by markedly reducing
the feed in the case of the sow that
raises two litters a year, as it is al
most certain to result in fewer pigs
raised. Lengthening the dry period
by weaving the pigs earlier may
help the sow recover proper con-
dition for a new litter, but under
many conditions in Montana this is |
not the most favorable method of |
handling the litter. Unless the best
supplements are available it is bet
ter practice to grow the litter to an
an average weight of at least IS, I
or better still, AS to so pounds, be-
fore weaving, and then to feed the
SOW little more generously during
the dry period.
