MONTANA farm women, in their con-
tests dealing with better kitchens.
1'A better living rooms and better yards
have worked out certain ideal types
which make for the maximum efficiency.
comfort n enjoyment. Now an effort is
being made to work out ideal types OF
farm homes, advises Miss Miriam Hawk
ms, home management specialist for the
Montana Extension service.
With the cooperation OF a leading ag-
ricultural journal in the state a contest
is being conducted with cash prizes to-
falling 1920 for the best house plan to
meet Montana farm conditions, The
contest is divided into two sections, one
for plans of farm homes OF not more
than five rooms, with all rooms on one
floor and the other for homes Of five or
more rooms, of one or two stories.
In this way, according TO Miss Hawk
ms, 1t is hoped to get a widespread ex-
preston of opinion from farm women,
which will result in the establishment
of certain ideal types of houses to meet
varying conditions in the state. At the
present time there are no distinctly Mon
tana-type rural home plans available.
Plans in common use in the state are
the same as those for other states and
in many cases do not meet local require
ments-
Miss Hawkins points out that there are
distinctive types OF poultry houses, hoB
houses and barns that have been devel-
oped especially for Montana conditions,
but until the present time there has
been no concerted effort to carry the idea
to the farm home. The home manage
ment specialist believes that the comfort,
convenience and happiness of the farm
family is fully as important as the we'll
being of the livestock.
Full details of the contest may be OBJ
tanned from county extension agents;

Montana Farmer, Great Falls. The con-
test closes April 80.

Deer Lodge national forest Is not a
very lucrative field for the professional
fur trapper, according to John b. Tay-
Tor, supervisor Of the forest, In COM
menting upon a wild animal census re-
recently made by foresters. There Is
not a point I'm the forest more than
10 miles distant from an automobile
road, Mr.. Taylor says, n the vicinity
Is so thickly populated that trapping
Is naturally discouraged.
There is not one professional trapper
In the forest, but q number of ranchers
and farmers adjacent thereto do consid-
cradle trapping as O side venture, accord
ing to the supervisor. One rancher has
cleared 81, 900 annually from his sales OF
coyote pelts, Mr.. Taylor says. One fur
farming permit has been issued, but
aside from that the fur business near
Butte is negligible.
A number of f~ur-bearing animals do
make Deer Lodge forest their habitat,
however. Beavers are the most numer-
Gus of the smaller animals, and are be-
lieved to be increasing. At present for
esters estimate 1880 beaver living near
forest streams.
Next in number come mink. About
GOO mink are to be found on the reserve,
according to MIR. Taylor's estimates. One
hundred and seventy-five fox and zoe
marten are estimated to be living in and
around Deer Lodge national forest. be-
sides a great number Of weasel and a
goodly number Of muskrats in certain
locations.
Coyotes Are Increasing
Despite exterminative measures by the
biographical survey, coyotes are increas-
ing, Mr.. Taylor says. Efforts have been
made both by government men and
ranchers to decrease the number Of coy
otes but without avail. Since black bear
has been listed as q game animal they
too, have increased. according to forest
reports. There are at present approx
mately 100 black bear In the reserve.
Nothing definite is known concerning
silver-tip and grizzly bears in Deer Lodge
forest. An occasional silver-tip is seen,
however. Mr.. Taylor says.
Among other predatory animals found
in the forest are approximately 300 Wild
cat and lynx, IL mountain lions, and a
few wolves. Wolves are not natural resi-
dents Of the forest, Mr.. Taylor says. Ad-
1acent districts are too thickly populated
to encourage these beasts. Wolves seen
are thought to drift into the forest from
outlying districts n are said to be
migratory.

went back to the old familiar club

Frank insists he is playing golf
