VAST RESOURCES
BEHIND GENERAL ELECTRIC
REFRIGERATOR

The vast resources and electrical ex-
perience of the General Electric Com
pany, tn worlds leading electrical
manufacturer, are behind the new Gen
eral Electric Refrigerator, according TO
r. E. Russell, local manager of Noun
tain States Power Co. This refrigerator
is the direct result of fifteen years Of
research and cooperative work by
sixty-four engineers.
The icing unit consumes minimum
amount of current keeps a uniform
temperature and never requires oiling
or attention of any kind, as all NOV
ing parts are enclosed in a hermeh-
cally sealed casing This unit is as
sembled in a dust-proof room, with all
the care that usually goes into the
making of precise scientific instru-
ments. II is then subjected to rigid
tests.
The fact that there are now nearly
half million G. E. refrigerators in
active use and not one owner has ever
spent one cent for service assures per-
feet satisfaction for every purchaser.
As special Introductory offer the
power company is making attractive
terms which will permit every local
resident to own one Of the popular
General Electric refrigerators. However.
as stated in the company's advertising
in this paper this offer is for limited
time only.

WHEAT HAS HIGH VALUE

BOZEMAN.-What are the facts
about the value of wheat as feed for
livestock? Many stockmen over Mon

Richards, extension livestock specialist
at Montana State College has dug up
some facts for the benefit Of those who
want to know.
In order to obtain some figures on the
comparative fattening value of wheat
and barley for cattle, hogs and sheep,
ii feeding trials were conducted by the
Montana Experiment Station. Without
exception wheat proved to be the bet
ter 1t averaged about 10 per cent bet

and cost per hundred pounds gain.
In hog feeding trial two lots of hogs
were given free choice alfalfa pasture
and settled tankage but one lot was
fed low protein wheat and the other
barley. Pork was produced cheaper per
hundred pounds with wheat than with
barley.
AS a partial replacement for hay, one
pound OF wheat has been found to
replace two and one-haH pounds of al
falfa hay. With alfalfa hay at $12 per
ton a bushel OF wheat would have a
replacement value of 80 cents while
$40 hay would bring the value of wheat
to $3.50 per bushel.
While corn has long held top place as
livestock fattener, Henry and Nor
rison, livestock feeding authorities,
made the following statement in 1923.
Fed in properly balanced rations,
wheat is about equal to corn for milk
production and for fattening animals"
Shrunken or frosted wheat is still
good feed. In fact If 1t will weigh IS
pounds per bushel, Mr.. Richards says II
is as good as plumb go pound wheat
for feed. AS such wheat Is usually soft
it is ideal for livestock feeding. How
ever any wheat should be ground
coarsely or rolled for hogs, cattle and

do better on whole wheat.
