Two carloads Of Bitter Root valley
hay will provide a choice bill Of fare
for Man o'War. one Of the greatest
race horses the world has known. The
hay, which was bought at the Walter
Long ranch, near Darby, by J. p.
whyte, acting for DR.. Charles Hag-
yard OF Lexington, Kentucky, was
shipped last week. The freight rate
on the hay from Darby to Lexington
totals S24.4O per ton, but the Kentucky
man says Man o'War must have the
best and they regard the Bitter Root
product as superior to any. Other cars
Of hay will follow, 1t is said.

Battery Wires Should
Be Well Insulated

II is particularly important that the
battery wires and all accessories con.
nected to them be well insulated in
all sets. as the batteries generate the
strongest currents. The higher the
voltage of the batteries the better
must the insulation be. as high volt.
age causes more Of strain on Insu-
lators than low voltages. Bare wire.
or wire covered only with thin lay
ers Of cotton or silk. should never be
used between the "A" and "B" bat
teries and the set binding posts, as
the weak insulation is likely to wear
away and to cause a disastrous short
circuit of the batteries which will
manifest Itself In the form OF bril-
liant pyrotechnics and perhaps few
flames.

IN MONTANA
STEADILY ON INCREASE
Rapid Growth IN Industry for First
Six Months Of This Year
ls Noteworthy

According to a statement Issued by
G. A. Norris OF the dairy division, de-
paFtmeHt of agriculture, the dairy In
dustry in Montana has developed rap
idly during the last year, and those
engaged in this important business
are much encouraged by the advance
ment made during this period.
For the first six months OF 1925,
increase in production Of butter
amounted to 100000 pounds more than
was manufactured In the same period
last year" says the statement The
price paid for butter fat to the pro
Queer was higher than last year and
from present indications, the price Of
butter fat will be steady for some
time to come.
Those interested in the industry
should thoroughly anaiyze the real OPP
portunities through the wonderful
value of our alfalfa, which is OF I'M
usual quality and can be raised in
such large quantities, thus making pos
sible an economical feed for the dairy
COW. In addition to this, those who
are interested in the purebred branch
of the industry have a good market |
within the state for dairy stock Of
proved production ability. The pure
bred breeders OF Montana have been /
greatly encouraged this year by the
keen demands from local dairymen
for purebred sires and good founda-
ton dairy cows. Six carloads OF
dairy cattle have been transferred
within the state during the last year.
One carload has been shipped in from
,tifer states5 and two carloads are at
he present time enroute from coast

How Air Pressure
Acts on Reception
Fair and Bad Weather The
DRY Right and Wrong,
Says Expert.

The exact manner IN which radio
transmission and reception are affect
ed by the weather still remains large
~ In the realm OF uncertainty. but the
popular belief that bad weather means
peer reception, and fair weather good
reception, is correct in principle, but
frequently wrong In specific applica-
lion, says Eugene Van Cleef, q me
neurological expert. in discussing ra-
do and the weather In an article In
Radio News Magazine. There does
seem to be some relationship between
the general atmospheric conditions ac-
companying a certain kind OF weather
and the amount OF static interference
noted at the same time, he vouchsafes,
and he describes the observations he
has made on the relation Of static and
passing high and low pressure areas,
The most impressive relation be
tween static and the atmosphere, he
declares, is the fact that whenever
the radio waves travel along a route
at right angles to isobars (the heavy
curves Of equal barometrlc or atmOs-
pherlc pressure found on weather
maps) reception is clearest and
strongest. This Is as true for low
pressure areas as for high. although
reception tends to be weaker. Recep-
ton is usually weaker when waves
pass from one pressure area across
another than when they are confined
to single area Static appears TO be
most frequent when the isobars are
far apart that is. when the waves
travel across areas Of little difference
In air pressure.
So far as the state Of the weather
Is concerned, one may obtain as good
results on a night when It is raining
or showing and blowing as when the
skies are clear. All that rs necessary
Is the right distribution of pressure.
Listeners generally recognize >-rfTe
fact that programs come In better on /
clear, cold evenings than on evenings
with moderate temperatures. This is
due, II seems. to a lower percentage
of atmospheric moisture when nights
are cool than when they are warm.
But II must be remembered that
,old or cool wave accompanies an In
.ensive high pressure. in which the
sobars are close together. or again
We fall back on pressure distribution.

tatic is more common in summer

setting up Of more con

air than In winter. and the
occurrence OF numerous thunder
