Health Day affords an excellent
opportunity to bring the public
health nursing service to the at
tention of the community, convert
many to the cause, and secure
financial support in maintaining
a service which brings health and
happiness to the children and
youths of today and the men and
women of tomorrow; the ultimate
goal of May Child Health Day.

ported by taxation for it is as i'm
portant that our children should
know how to live that they may be
well and strong as that they know
how to write. 1t is as much the
duty of a community to protect
its citizens from disease as it is
to afford protection from fire and
theft. The average cost for the
public health nursing service is
$4,000, yet it is an investment that
pays wonderful dividends in health,
happiness and human life.
"If scales could be placed before
us and put on one side the life of
a child and on the other $4,000,
no economic stress or financial de-
preston would go against that life,
and yet how many communities
look at the dollar rather than the
life. If a nurse should be the
means of prolonging just n girls
life and if through her efforts de-
fects are corrected which otherwise
would handicap a boy for life,
would she not pay for her salary,
especially if that child was yours?
Many states compel the employ
nent of the public health nurse.
Montana, a county has the pri-
vilege of expanding funds for the
service, yet many of u counties

ing of more model poultry houses,
and will also stimulate the en-
ployment of better feeding and
management practices.
The committee recommends on
slant and vigorous culling. In
cases where day-old, chicks are
purchased the committee recon-
mends that these be purchased
from accredited iocks and hatche-
ries.
Turkeys
The committee encourages eX-
pansion of the turkey industry and
urges the formation of pools
where the volume is of sufficient
size so that the grower may get
the benefits of better grades and
packs.
The committee suggests that best
results are obtained when one tom
and not over II hens are kept.
Late matches are discouraged in
order to avoid roup and immature,
stunted birds at marketing time.
The building of turkey corrals is
considered practical in order to
protect birds from coyotes.
The committee further recon-
mends that in areas where coyotes
are a real that plans be
made to cooperate with the United
States Biological Survey in hiring
hunters for coyote determination.
Since large annual losses occur
from marketing birds with crooked
breasts, the committee recommends
that special attention be given to
breeding only birds with straight
breasts and to giving feeds which
are rich in minerals as we'll as
attention to general vigor
and vitality of breeding stock.
In order to protect the district

another general English test will
be given about the middle of the

farming profitable. Better labor
distribution will be secured through
summer following, through stub
ling on summer fallow stubble.
through the use of a duckfoot cul-
~tivator for following and the sub
stitution of an acreage of winter
wheat.
Safety Factors
Effectiveness of labor on wheat
farms may be increased by the use
of large teams Of medium sized
tractors, the use of larger ma
chimes and possibly through the
use of a combine" harvester.
The safety factor in wheat farm
ing is important and may be in
creased by carrying over moisture
reserves in summer fallow, by in
creasing cash reserves and re-
serves of seed and feed for work
stock. With lower wheat prices
or with increasing soil problems,
these farms will shift to mixed
livestock and grain farms.
The farming-grazing farm is
best adapted where some rough
land is adjacent to crop land.
Wheat should be the main crop
but should be raised on summer
fallow or corn ground. A feed re-
serve of M years supply is re-
commended. The amount of live
stock will vary, but s to 10 cows
should be MIXED and 5 to 10 brood
sows should be kept.
The committee recommends the
s of sweet clover TO increase the
carrying capacity of grazing land.
On all types of farms a larger
acreage may be desirable where
there is more regular labor avail
able throughout the year. The
committee recommends a keeping
of accounts and the study of cost
by farmers as a means of making
the farm organization more pro
ftable.
The Land Utilization committee
has not tried TO make many spe-
cifc recommendations as to crops
and livestock problems as these
were taken up through special
committees dealing with these
subjects.
POULTRY COMMITTEE REPORT
The committee finds that there
are few people in the district who
are specializing in the production
of table eggs on a commercial
scale. Further that the egg mark
cts Of the district are poor at
most seasons OF the year
In general the poultry practices
of the district are poor with few
adequate houses, poor feeding
methods and little attention given
to any breeding plan. The tur-
key industry of the area is found
to be On the increase, in several
parts of the district counties al
ready are marketing their turkeys
collectively.
Recommendations
The committee does not recon-
mend an expansion of the com
mercial egg phase of the industry.
In the cases where individuals are
DESTROYS of developing this phase
of the industry and do not have
good local markets, they are adj
vised to market with the Cascade
association if by so doing greater
profits a be obtained.
For the average farm the COM
recommends the keeping of
dual purpose birds in focks of not
more than 100 birds. In places
where the grower has the proper
equipment to keep caponized birds
this phase of the in
dustry Is recommended.
In connection with the keeping
Of these general farm focks the
urgently recommends
q comprehensive educational pro-
gram which win result in the build !

the safety factors in wheat farm
ing were recommended by the LAND
utilization committee at the Balm
vile Conference, March 31st. In
arriving at their recommendations
the committee made an exhaustive
study of conditions that exist in
northeastern Montana.
Farm Glasses
They found that there has been
a steady decrease in the number
of farms and an increase in the
acreage farmed during the past
five years. Farms are larger and
in general are better managed
than formerly.
On the dry lands of northeastern
Montana the committee found
that agriculture roughly falls into
% small farms all tillable land
where intensive methods bring
good results; (2) wheat farms OF
a large acreage that lends itself to
extensive methods; 90 farming
grazing farms where grazing land
is combined with adjacent crop
land and some livestock is kept.
Farm Sizes
OF the first type, the minimum
size should be 800 acres or more.
In many cases a section is most
profitable. Wheat should be the
main cash crop using the 1-3 fall
low, 1-3 wheat on fallow and 1-3
crop system. Some live
stock and feed crops should be
lsed TO divide risks and a mini
mum to 6 or s COWS and 5 to 10
should be maintained. Corn
ihould be used to replace summer
allow and furnish feed. Sweet
lover for hay and pasture, works
n best with his rotation. Some
arm poultry should be maintained.
Wheat alone does not provide pro-
use of labor and manage
lent on this size of farm.
On the wheat farms one section
f crop land is desirable and
attention must be paid to
ultural practices to make wheat
profitable. Better labor
istribution will be secured through
ummer following, through stub
ing on summer fallow stubble,
trough the use of a duckfoot cul- {
ivator for following and the sub {
of an acreage of winter {
heat. {
