FEEDING STEERS
PAYS STOCKMEN
POLICY BEATS THAT OF DIRECT
SELLING

When Shaffer- Bros. Of Billings,
Mont, cashed 81 head of good white
face yearlings averaging 923 pounds
at South St. Paul, MINI, recently at
$500 q hundredweight, they not only
set the days top on steers but. also
provided a demonstration to other
Montana .stockmen that they have an
excellent opportunity to feed out their
cattle to advantage.
These steers we're pulp-fed and before
being put on feed last fall would not
have Melted the owners more than $500
a hundredweight, according. to con-
sentative estimate, whereas they Melted
$3.50 when sold at South st. Paul, as
It cost around o cents a hundred
weight to run them: -
The finish, although not comparable
with that. obtained on corn and con-
c%entrates, was attractive enough to
make a very profitable deal out of it
for the owners and they were well
pleased with the sale. Beet pulp is
available economically for many Mon
tana stockmen and the experience of
these men proves it possible for cattle
growers to realize better returns by
finishing off their steers on pulp and
grain and marketing them along
through the winter than to sell them as
feeders to direct buyers or to rush them
to market in the fall when the heaviest
cattle movement is on.

BOOKLET
AID TO GROWERS
"A COMPARISON OF IRRIGATED
AND NON-IRRIGATED POTATOES"
IS NEW PUBLICATION

MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)
Convincing proof Of the relative
value Of irrigated and non-irrigated
potatoes for seed purposes is found
in "A Comparison Of Irrigated and
NOn-Irrigated Seed Potatoes" a Mon
tana Experiment station bulletin by
F. M. Harrington, head Of the State
college horticulture department.
There is a distinct prejudice among
growers in some districts against ir-
rigated seed potatoes. while other
growers accept irrigated seed as readily
as non-irrigated. They Judge the value
of the seed by the methods employed
by the grower, Harrington declares.
Some states will certify only non-irri-
gated fields, others accept irrigated
fields, provided they are above a Ger
tain elevation. A third group of states
certifies both irrigated and non-irrigat-
ed fields.
In settling this much disputed point,
Harrington conducted two experiments.
Two fields, about three miles apart,
with similar soil and climatic condi-
lions were selected, one with irrigation
and one without. Six varieties of po-
tatoes were used, being divided in equal
parts between the two plots.
Two detectives were in view when
the experiments were made: First, a
study OF irrigated and non-irrigated

ms RESTORED|
WITH PHOSPHATE
NEAR CUSTER REBUHDS
BEET LAND TO PROFITABLE :.
LEVEL CHEAPLY
By VERN SWARTZ,

Great Western Sugar Company:
James Cross Of Custer. Mont, has
been trading horses and buying and
selling cattle and, hogs the past few
years because the farm on whcih he
lives would no longer produce a prof.
table crop. co.,.
Last spring Mr.. Cross decided to try
raising beets again, after being out of
the beet raising business since 1927. He
was forced to quit raising beets at that
enough tons per acre to keep beet
farming on the profit. side of his ledger.
Since 1927 he has been. observing the
success and the increased tonnage his
neighbors are having from the use of
phosphate. He decided that by using
phosphate he. too. could raise a profit
able tonnage. He knew that if it were
phosphate his land needed, it needed
a lot of it. Therefore, he planted q
six-acre field to beets. first applying
200 pounds of phosphate per acre with
a grain drill. This field yielded 20.19
tons per acre.
Mr.. Cross knows that phosphate was
the main factor in producing his high
yield and he is also convinced that by
the use of phosphate, he can grow a
profitable crop on other fields as well.
After applying phosphate to his beet
field. he had ONE so or go pounds of
phosphate left in the drill and wishing
to clean out the drill, as well as for ex-
perimental purposes, he applied this
phosphate in strips on one side Of an
adjoining 20 acre alfalfa field.
The results in this experiment were
almost unbelievable. MIR. Cross esti-
mated the foliage to be ten times as
heavy IN the phosphated strips as on
the rest of the field. The past two
years this alfalfa field has not been
cut. This year it was let go for seed
and the year before it was used as a
summer pasture, because it would not
produce enough hay to pay for the
cutting and stacking of it.
The last crop of beetS raised on a
10-acre plot on this field in 1927 pro-
duced a total of 10 tons for the entire
plot. The entire plot was thinned, but
only on a few spots did the beets de-
velop so that they were large enough
to harvest.
Twenty years ago, this farm was con-
sidered one of the best farms in this
part of the country, but year after year
decreased. Finally, phosphate was ap-
piled this year, making farming profit
able again on a part of it.
Mr.. Cross has fall plowed and work.
ed down this 20-acre alfalfa field. He
is confident that with phosphate as his
silent partner, he will again make the
old farm pay dividends and horse trad
ing will become a side line.

tobacco contracts for growing crops
for direct consumption by the farm
family or for feeding livestock contrib
uting to the food requirements of the
farm family.
The use of the retired acres should
benefit American agriculture beyond
the immediate effect of balancing the
production of basic surplus crops now
produced beyond our domestic and ex-
port demands. An increase in perman-
ent pastures and meadow crops, at the
expense of the acreage now being used
in producing too much corn, wheat,
cotton, and tobacco, should result in
decreasing losses from erosion and
should aid in maintaining and improv-
ing soil fertility"
Estimated acreage reductions for 1894
under the various adjustment programs
are about 20 million acres in corn, is
million in cotton, 8 million in wheat,
and 500 thousand in tobacco.

Is States
Healthiest Year

Montana enjoyed the "healtiest"
year in its history in 1888, Secretary DR..
M. D.. Cogswel of the state board Of
health reported.
cogswell said. Montana reached a
new low in 1888 with the lowest birth
and infant mortality rates in its his
tory, and a death rate which has been
lower only four times in @ years.
There were 1854 births recorded for
1888, a decrease Of 480 since 1882. low
ering the birth rate from ITO to 16.1
per 1000 of population.
There were SO less deaths, 5,192 as
compared with 1921. The infant NOR
tally rate was 400 per 1000 live births
as compared with sos in 1882, only 426
children dying before their first birth
day."
Heart disease was deaths most
dread agent, accounting for one out
of every six deaths, a total Of 918. Can
Ger ranked second, causing one out of
every 10 deaths, a total of 499, and &C
cidents were a close third, resulting in
1913 fatalities.

REGULATIONS ON
CROP REDUCTIONS
DEFINITE AND EFFECTIVE USES
OF RETIRED ACREAGES PERMIT
TED UNDER CONTRACTS

Assurance that reductions in pro-
duction of major farm crops which
are sought through the retirement Of
more than 40 million acres in the
adjustment programs for 1884 will be
an actual and effective reduction for
the United States as a whole, without
the danger of mere shifts from one
basic commodity to another, is given
through regulations the Agricultural
Adjustment administration is placing
into effect for use of the land with
drawn from production under growers
contracts.
Farmers agree in each contract not
to use the acres retired from produc-
ton of that particular commodity for
the growing of any crop for sale, either
directly, O. indirectly through feeding
to livestock or poultry for market, or
for the marketing Of their products.
There is one minor exception in the
case of limited fall pasturing of new
seedlings of permanent pasture and
meadow crops seeded without nurse
crops.
Absence of such limiting agreements,
officials of the Adjustment Administra-
ton point out, would leave the door
OpSIl lOI Slll1GQlS 1IOul OLc DdSlC ClOp
to another, thus contributing to exist
ing SURPRISES in those other crops and
defeating the fundamental purpose of
the national production adjustment
program.
Definite and effective uses Of the re-
tired acreage, in accordance with the
restrictions against contribution to sur
pluses, are permitted under the adjust
ment contracts.
I'm the main, a uniform program
for the use Of the land withdrawn from
production of basic crops has been de-
veloped," said j. F. Cox, chief Of the
replacement crops section of the ad-
justment administration. "All of the
contracts, for wheat, cotton, tobacco,
and corr and hogs, permit the use of
the retired acres in establishing new
seedlings of soil-improving and erosion
preventing crops; resting or following
the land, where these practices are
practicable; cultivation to control nox-
ious weeds; and planting to forest trees.
In view of the fact that cotton and
tobacco are contract crops, produced
largely by share renters and share
choppers, limited use of the withdrawn
acres is permitted in the cotton and

Mineral Rights Are
Not Retained When
State Trades Lands

When the state Of Montana sells
portions Of its land, it provides for the
reservation of minerals, but when state
lands are exchanged, the state conveys
and accepts the full fee title to the
lands exchanged, Attorney General
Raymond T. Maggie, ruled recently in an
opinion requested by I. M. Brandjord,
commissioner of state lands and in
vestments.
The question was submitted in re-
gard to an exchange of land by the
state and TooIe county. Commissioner
Brandjord wished to know whether the
land should be exchanged with mineral
rights or whether either or both parties
should retain such rights at the time of
transfer.

CHANGE MADE IN
PROCESSING TAX
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL
REVENUE ANNOUNCES CHANGE
IN REGULATIONS

On Nov. 22, 1888, the bureau of in
ternal revenue issued a release in
which it was stated that the producer
who slaughters his own hogs and sells
or otherwise disposes of any part of
the products is subject to the process
ing tax on the portion sold.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Helvering now calls attention to the
fact that that ruling has been changed.
Under regulations just issued by the
secretary of agriculture, approved by
the president, the producer of hogs may
sell or exchange during any marketing
year not to exceed 300 pounds of pro-
ducts derived from hogs slaughtered by
him without payment of any processing
tax. The producer in this instance
means the wner Of the hog at the time
of narrowing. If the producer processes
hogs and sells or exchanges during any
marketing year products derived there
from in excess of 300 pounds but not in
excess of 1000 pounds he shall be en-
titled to the exemption of 300 pounds,
but shall pay the processing tax on the
amount sold in excess of 300 pounds.
He is not entitled to any exemption
if he, together with his own family, en-
ployees or household, processes hogs
produced by him and sells or ex-
changes more than 1000 pounds of the
products derived therefrom during any
marketing year.
Any person who s%laughters hogs and
sells all or any part of them should
confer with the collector of internal
revenue for his district who will advise
him as to whether or not he is subject
to a tax, and, if so, will assist him in
preparing and filing the necessary re-
turns
