A sanguine feeling continues to
prevail in the cattle industry as a
whole and this stands out particular
ly through the contrast to the sever
al years of depression experienced
during the liquidation and readjust-
ment period following the World
a
Cattle prices generally seem booked
to maintain satisfactory levels
throughout the coming year and
probably for some time following,
This applies to fat cattle and is ma
turally reflected upon all classes as
high fat cattle prices mean cor
respondingly high prices for feeder
cattle. This has been emphasized
particularly in the past few weeks
during which the Pacific coast has
been a heavy buyer of feeders in both
the Southwest and Intermountain ter
ritOries.
The coast feeder buyer has been in
the position Of being forced to pur-
chase feeder cattle to take advantage
Of the promising range conditions as
well as a hay and grain crop above

the average. This has resulted in
the stimulation Of feeder cattle prices
to q point where it is questionable
whether the margin between these
prices and present fat cattle prices
allows a reasonable margin of profit
to the feeder. This condition may be
helped by putting on the weight. = .
Producers Of all classes of live
stock are quite optimistic as to the
future and are looking, from all of
the territory lying west Of the Rocky
mountains, toward the immense con-
sumer demand and accompanying OUT
let provided by the unprecedented
metropolitan development in Southern
California. At present it takes over
100000 cattle, 10000 calves, 100000
hogs and 100000 sheep to supply the
demands Of Los Angeles and Vernon
packers and these supplies % from
territory as far east as the Missouri
river. The benefit tO the producers
Of the Pacific slope outlet may be APP
preciated when it is considered that
a large portion Of this supply moves
from territory highly competitive
with the Missouri river and Eastern
markets.
Phenomenal progress has been
made on the south Pacific coast in
the matter Of centralizing the outlets
for livestock, the development of the
meat packing industry to take care
of the immense consumer demand and
the building up Of distributing facil-
tiles so that the product may be
handled most economically through
Capitalization. All Of these things, OF
course, gravitste to the benefit Of the
producer, distributor and the con-
sumner.

Suggestions to Follow
to Raise Strong Chicks

Raising early matches Of baby chicks
has long been one of the most difficult
problems of the practical poultryman.
Recent findings In feed and feeding,
however, explain some of the trou=
BILE, and help to make 1t possible to
raise chicks Matched at any time of
the year. Another edition Of a bulle-
tin Of the states agricultural expert
ment station has been published to
supply the poultrymen Of Wisconsin
with the Results Of these important In
vestlgations.
The ration recommended by the In
vestigators at the University Of Wis
consin consists Of so parts Of yellow
corn, 20 parts of wheat middlings,
parts of raw bone. parts Of grit Zeal
eium earbonate), and part of COM
mon salt, and skim milk used freely.
They warn poultry raisers against a
very serious condition called leg
weakness" or ricketts,, common to
young chicks Matched in northern ell
mates during the winter. The most
simple remedy, they find, is to expose
the chicks to sunlight. The ration
given above plus sunlight is a COM
plete one for raising strong, healthy
young chicks. Il needs no further
supplement, they declare.

older. the quantity may be increased
until the calf is getting IL to 2
pounds of the meal mixed with water
in a day when two months old. This
calf meal has been used with success
as a substitute for skim milk for

CROPS IN MONTANA GETTING
FINE START, SAYS FIELD MAN

Montana's 1926 crop season Is get
ting off to the finest start in the his
tory OF the state, according to ]. G.
Taylor, director Of the Montana Elk
tension Service. On his return recent
~ from a visit to central northern and
northeastern counties he reports the
season from 10 days to two weeks
earlier than usHal, and grain crops,
pastures and livestock in excellent
condition.
The early opening OF spring and the
favorable weather conditions during
April gave farmers n chance to pre-
pare a large amount OF land for plant
ing this year and Mr.. Taylor estimates
that there will be a 10 per cent In
crease In wheat acreage IN the area
visited. BY the 18th of May pract-
ically all grain had been seeded with
most of 1t up and growing rapidly.
The corn acreage is expected to be
about the same as last year. although
n number of northern Montana coun-
ties will have a slLzht increase. There
promises to be a substantial increase
in barley and rye and many counties
report a hundred per cent increase in
sweet clover acreage. Many farmers
were planting corn the second week in
May.
The lamb crop this year probably
will break all records, says Mr.. Taylor.
Range sheepmen are reporting lamb
crops of from 90 to 100 per cent and
ordinarily an so to IS per cent crop is
good. With pastures and
-ange starting early and In fine con-
iition live stock OF all kinds is making
