N.S0.-Mystery shrouded the

All representatives of the press

While Dickerson N. Hoover,

said he had no objection to re-

a representative of the Ward Line,
absolutely forbade it. Asked for
an explanation, he said:

Mr.. Crocco would not divulge
his position with the company,

The executive council of the
United Textile Workers went into
session today with the possibility
that before the end of the day it
would order out on strike 10000
additional workers, embracing silk
dyerS, rayon yarn makers and car.
pet and rug WeaVers.
Francis j. German, chairman of
the strike committee, said every
vice president of the union came
here with the most encouraging
reports, showing that the strike
lines were growing daily, and
added that the strike sis abso-
lutely unbreakable, except by the
granting of our demands"

Third Vice President John Peel,

Mr.. German made public tele.

The telegram to johnson de-

"YOur unjustified denuncia-

This strike is a protest
against the prejudiced manner
in which NRA is being admin

of its repeated violations, Sec

MINE FIRE WILL
BE E%XTINGUISHED
GOVERNMENT STEPS IN TO STOP
BLAZE DESTROYING SHERIDAN
COUNTY DEPOSITS

A burning coal mine nine miles
northwest Of Plentywood will be quen-
ed. Steps taken by the geological sur
vey department will make possible
the effort to combat the fire.
A crew of 10 men is working at the
mine site. It is expected additional
laborers will be added as the work
progresses.
How the fire originated is in doubt.
Miners first noticed the burning veins
Of Ignite in 1881. Old settlers of the
county say the fire started more than
20 years ago and the present blaze is
but renewed activity.
Work of combating the fire is a big
undertaking. According to surveys,
the face of the mine is 47O feet. Three
coal veins form the bed. It is believed
by mining engineers that the fire is
active in the center vein. How far
into the mine the fire has penetrated
has not been determined.
Several years ago tunnels penetrated
the face of the mine into the center
coal vein. Caveins have completely
filled the tunnels. Portions of a big

ed in, presumably caused by the burn
ing vein.
It is planned to make cuts behind
the fire. A cut Of than 80 feet
will be made to get below the coal
beds. BY moving the coal from the cut
and plugging with dirt, it is expected
the fire can be stopped.
Workmen excavating at the north
end of the mine face encountered in
tense heat from the burning coal. A
draft in the mine is apparent, as small
holes along the face Of the mine hill
belch smoke and heat.
A general survey of the project would
indicate months of labor will be neces-
sary to quell the fire.

The outgoing mail contained $1,000
in government vouchers and other
valuable matter and the kilograms were
of great importance. Their loss would
have been irretrievable.
The route lay through a section where
there was danger not only from hostile
Sioux but also from war parties OF
Blackfeet and Piegans.
The country was practically a rolling
prairie, though a part of a trail went
up the valley of the Milk river where
occasional points Of timber might Of
fer shelter, or fuel for camp fires.
Anderson and Gus Tyler, his guards
man, started out on horseback with
sleds carrying camp equipment, etc.
And it was not hostile Indians that
made the trip perilous.
In a severe blizzard soon after they
started, the men lost their bearings. A

TURKEYS
GROWN CHEAPLY
EVER, FROM BIRTH UNTIL "a
WEEKS OLD

Prime turkeys, the only mes which
return a profit at low prices, can be
produced with a feed cost of 8 cents
a pound, but they must gain con-
sistently from birth until "a weeks
old, the age when proper feeding and
management will make them prime
birds, advises S. J. Marsden, in charge
of turkey experiments at the Miles
City range experiment station.
The feeding life of a turkey falls
naturally into two periods. The first
period is from birth to eight weeks. The
second from nine weeks to maturity.
The same ration will not work for both
periods. In the early period the ra-
ton must contain about "a percent
protein. In the latter period the pro-
tein must be reduced to about 20 per-
cent, Marsden says.
From nine weeks on, turkeys should
have either a growing mash supple
mented with scratch feed in hoppers
OF an abundance Of milk, grains and
good green feed such as alfalfa hay.
Green feed Is most important at all
times, regardless of the ration.
A growing mash which Marsden sug-
gests is composed Of IS percent each of
bran, yellow corn meal, ground oats,
ground barley or wheat; 20 percent
shorts, 9 percent meat scrap, S percent
dried buttermilk, 3 percent bonemeal,
2 percent oyster shell, calcite or lime
stone grit. and l percent salt.
Marsden says that to get a white
carcassed bird 10 large amount of yell
low ORR should be fed in the grain
substitution during the latter part of
the feeding period. The growing mash
also should be supplemented by a
scratch grain made entirely Of wheat or
40 percent corn and 20 percent each of
wheat, barley and oats.
