EASY on GRADE CROSSINGS


EASY on GRADE CROSSINGS
Az usual. The New Haven rail-
road is to be kindly and cousi4era,e-
" treated with regard to the dim
nation Of dangerous grade crossings
in the state. That means, Of course,
that no more grade crossings "ia

m This grade crossing matter ON
merely needs to refer to the law
about it as il has stood on thu
books" This law required tho riim-

for every 50 miles of track fri the
state
But there is a nice little joker
connected with the law. making it
merely one Of those things on the

THE ioker is that, if a railroad
fails 20 do this, the Public Utilities
Commission may make arrange

A LTHOUGH the grain or hay fatten-
"a ing Of steers for market is carried
on only TO q limited extent In
Montana, there are number Of
regions in the state where there is room
for expansion. The discussion of this
question, undoubtedly, will be among the
most interesting matters to be consid-
cred at the meetings to be held in con-
nection with the Livestock special train
to be run in southern Montana by the
Montana extension service and the
Northern Pacific railroad this month.
Surplus hay and other ro1ghages hav-
ing a low market value may be marketed
prOfitably by feeding out" beef steers.
In the sugar beet districts beet by-prod-
ucts are cheap and efficient feeds that
can be fed at a profit. Many ranchers
are so situated that they can produce
their own feeders as well as all OF the
feeds necessary for fattening.
Age of Cattle to Fatten
The nature of q ranch enterprise af-
feCts the age of cattle that should be
fattened. If a rancher has learned that
he can make more money by growing
his steers until they are yearlings or two
year-Olds than by selling as calves, this
must be considered before he decides to
fatten calves tor baby beef. However
it is a well established fact that young
cattle make the most economical gains
in the feed lot. Less concentrates anc
roughage are required for every pound OF

Crippled animal was bitten but the
coyote decamped when the bell rang.
Several other sheepmen who have heard
Of the success of the experiment have
written to the Woolgrowers' association
as to the price Of bells and where they
may be obtained.
The Kentucky long-distance cowbell,
No. 10 size is used, and full leather
straps, Ia inches wide and "a inches
long used. The bells are clear-toned and
Of excellent construction. So pleased
were the sheepmen with the bell pro-
gram that followed the removal of the
bells from the ram lambs when sold,
they were attached to eve lambs.
Today a sheepman with a sense of
humor predicted the solving of the herd
ing problem with the introduction of
romance, the return to the Greek method
of ''herding by music"
"Wi1l not the no6ern sheepherder, re-
turning to primitive methods, arise in
the morning, comb his Whiskers with g
| cocklebur, take from the sagebrush his
snowwhite tunic, his shepherds crook
/ from the limb Of a tree, and, Crawine
from the pocket Of his tunic his pipes in
emulation Of Pan, sally forth to the days
/ work happy and contented?"
Then again, he said: Combination o.
Chimes are possible" To pick out any
| particular sheep, for instance, bells o.
| different tone may be used.
"At sunset the silvery chimes, blend
ing with the tones of the Rocky Noun
tain canary, the wall of the coyote, tn,
lowin of gthe cattle, will evolve into on
grand symphony, soothing the nerve
Of the weary herder."

q. Playing the reverse of the system,
hich prompted stOclImen in Oregon to
attach a bell to a coyote and turn him
loose to chase his mates out of the
stock district, the Mount Haggin Land

tried belling the sheep this year to pro-
tect them against marauders in the
hills.
The plan worked. DR.. H C. Gardiner
who put lOng-distance cOwbells on ap-
prOXimately 1000 ram lambs and when
the latter came through with practically
no loss from coyotes and were sold, the
bells were attached to eve lambs.
Murray Stebbins secretary of the Mon
tana WoOlgrowers' association, said the
plan was suggested about a year ago al
a meeting Of sheep men. 1t was not re-
called by anybody in the party that {

1000 sheep this season and turned then
out in the forests.
Last year, he writes, the Mount HaggiI

asked to submit what information they
have on practical methods OF developing
the irrigated lands and it is hoped 8
rather definite program can be worked

community in the valley to discuss diff
ferent problems in irrigated farming"
