COON AIR SERVICE FOR STATE
NOW AVAILABLE OVER UNITED
AIR LINES; FAST PLANES

No principal city in the United States
is more than twenty-four hours distant
from Montana via new air passenger,
mail and express schedules provided by
United Air Lines through connection
from Salt Lake City to Butte. Helena
and Great Falls via the Alfred Frank
air line, shows a survey completed by
traffic officials of the two air compan-
les.
A check of prevailing air service re-
yeals that Chicago is only 1871 hours
from Butte, 10 hours from Helena ana
40 hours from Great Falls, while New
York is only 81 hours from Butte, 2lh
hours from Helena and 22k from Great
Falls.
Additional examples of air time from
Butte to principal cities throughout the
country include to San Francisco, l2H
hours; Cheyenne, 81; hours; Denver,
15A hours; Omaha, u hours; Kansas

SALE PRICE OF EGGS
NOW DOUBLE COST OF
PRODUCTION, REPORT
MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)

Voluntary production records kept on
nearly 1000 chickens by A Montana
poultry demonstration farms indicate
that the sale price of eggs is double the
cost of production. The average price
of eggs, according to a report issued
recently by the Montana Extension
service, is IA cents while the average
feed cost per dozen eggs is seven cents.
Feed costs per adult bird average ten
cents.
Nearly 10 eggs per hen a month were
averaged by the various flocks upon
which records were kept, the range be-
ing from SO eggs a month to 25.7 eggs.
The high flock in Glass A EARNS
having 100 hens or over was one of
149 White Leghorns owned by Mrs. Bert
Christie of Bozeman. The flock av-
eraged 25.7 eggs per hen a month.
Mrs. Paul w. Wood of East Helena
had the best flock in the Glass B divi-
sion Of less than 100 birds. Her IS
White Leghorns averaged 25.6 eggs per
hen a month.

WHITE KING SOAP FOR SILKS

China gave us our first silk-Japan
furnishes much of our raw material,
but it is in America that silk really
comes into its own. Rich brocades,
dainty chiffons, alluring sport weaves,
the soft clinging crepes of today's lin
gerie-these materials are as well
known to the American shop girl as to
the m~illionairess. There is a good rea-
son for this. Silk properly washed,
wears beautifully. The washing recipe
is % simple. First, put a spoonful of
White King Granulated soap in a bas-
in-then add sufficient hot water to
thoroughly dissolve the granules-then
add additional cool water to cool to
lukewarm. Squeeze the suds through
the garment and rinse at least twice in
water of the same temperature as used
for washing. Silk, which is made from
a delicate animal fiber, should never
be "wrung out" or roughly handled. Dry
silk indoors, away from fire heat. You
can safely use the above method for
washing silk hosiery as well as all kinds
of silk lingerie. White King Granulat-
ed soap will not injure any fabric that
water alone does not harm.

: TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK
STILL TIME TO
FEED CROP
STATE COLLEGE ~AGRONOMISTS
ASSERT THAT PASTURE CAN BE
GROWN YET

Even though the dry weather has
been severe In many parts of MOn-
tana, there still is a possibility that
feed crops may be planted on many
farms during the middle of JUNE
! which will provide pasture during the
summer and fall and supplies of dry
feed for the winter months, where
there is plenty of moisture, declare
Clyde Mckee and Sam Sloan, agronO-
mists at Montana State college.
They base their assertion on the re-
suits of experiments conducted on nom
irrigated land at the branch station at
Havre, Judith Basin and Huntley over
a period of time ranging from Z to II
years.. Tests were conducted with mil
let, corn, Sudan grass and spring and
fall sown small grains.
At the northern Montana branch
station it was found that seedlings of
millet made by June IS under condi-
lions prevailing at Havre generally pro-
duced good yields of hay. Yields of g.
376 pounds of millet were averaged
during a period Of II years at the judi
it'll Branch station near Mocassion. In
many parts of Montana early maturing
and midseason varieties of corn will
produce an abundance of feed if plant
ed n time up TO June 10, the State
college agronomists affirm.
Sudan grass was planted last year
at the Huntley branch station May 20
and it emerged June 10. Because of
drouth little growth was made until a
rainy period during the latter half of
August, after which growth a rapid.
When the crop was harvested on Sept.
% it was fairly mature and yielded over
two tons of aircured hay per acre.
Seeded conditions should be made
as favorable as possible when planting
emergency feed crops late in the season,
it being especially important that these
late seeded crops be planted on weed
free land, the agronomists say.
Feed Crops for Late Planting in the
Drouth Areas" a circular just issued
by the Montana extension service, con-
tains much information regarding these
emergency crops. It may be obtained
free from local county agents or by
writing directly to Bozeman. Farmers
who do not have supplies of seed should
consult their county agent OF the agro-
nomy department, Montana State COL
lege, Bozeman.

USEFULNESS OF INSECT
IDENTIFICATION is
REVEALED IN E A S 7
(MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)

(MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)
Proof that people as far away as
Pennsylvania recognize the usefulness
of the insect identification service Of
fered by the Montana State college de-
partment of entomology was indicated
recently when a gorgeous gold and
iridescent blue-green giant mosquito
was received from there with a letter
requesting it's name and other infor-
nation. This latest mosquito specimen
to be added to the insect collection is
brilliantly colored and probably Of trop-
ical origin. 1t was captured at Holicony,
Pa, and wa probably blown there by
a hurricane which wrecked crops in
that region in 1888. Hurricanes in that
part of Pennsylvania usually originate
in the Caribbean region, where insect
life is unusually profuse and brilliant
ly colored. Montana farmers or other
interested people who wish to ascertain
the identity of some unknown insect,
and want to know control measures if
it is of destructive nature, are urged to
avail themselves of the free service Of
fered by the college.

TELLS ABOUT
LARGE ELK HERDS
MUCH MATERIAL ASSEMBLED IN
EXTENDED SURVEY OF SUN
RIVER COUNTRY

L. J. Howard, ranger, recently re-
turned to the forestry Headquarters at
Great Falls, after spending the last
winter studying the Sun river elk
herd, camping IN their trail n
making notes on their feed, trekking
habits, and the like.
In the course of the study, MI. How
ard covered more than 1000 miles on
foot and snowshoes and about 200 miles
by pack train. The territory where the
study was conducted includes h sun
river district, Dearborn district, Wrong
creek and Teton district of the Lewis
and Clark forest.
Interesting sidelights in the study
were disclosed almost daily through the
winter, Mr.. Howard related. He DIS
covered that where moose and elk seek
the same grazing grounds, the moose
Is boss and the elk will leave him
to himself.
The elk herd started down from the
highest ranges late in November and
remained in more or less concentrated
bands until early in February. During
the summer months, he has found,
they scatter over a larger territory. A
number of elk come to the Sun river
district feeding grounds from as Tar
as the Flathead area and have a trall
across the divide at Indian creek.
The strategy of coyotes was graphl-
cally illustrated for Mr.. Howard While
camping neal Gibson lake. A faWn was
slowly separated from a group OF deer
and forced downhill onto the ice OF Inc
lake. where it was easy prey.
The coyotes, however, were care1u1
not to attack until the animal was on
the ice, as it could easily have outrun
the coyotes while still on the mountaln-
side and regained its herd.
An abundance of wild life was seen
during the winter study, Mr.. Howard
stated. with a seeming increase in turr-
ed animals. He saw three large gr1z-
xiv bears, brown bear, marten, lynx,
sheep, moos many mule deer and oVer
l6 mountain goats. The goats are IN
the West fork region, he stated. Inc
moose are fat and mostly around Gates
park and Wrong creek. Tracks OF only
one mountain lion were found.
There was little or no destruction OF
the elk by other wild life, about % mead
being lost through the winter, a normal
number.
During the winter months, MI. How
ard took over $40 pictures OF the elK'
other wild animals and scenes.He also
noted more than 200 types OF plant Lie
in addition to the conifers.
Mr.. Howard camped by the Chinese
wall late in May, and the snow was
still about 10 feet deep, he SAID.

WORKERS REQUEST
PARKING INSIGNIA
Replying to Kean, Leader Suggests
Police Permit Cars to
Remain.

More than so per cent OF Government
employees live in suburbs and therefore
are unable to walk to work, D. E. NC
Oueary, president Of the Association for
Adequate Parking and Recreation Facili-
ties Among Government Employees. told
Senator Kean, Republican, of New Jer-
sey. in q letter made public today.
Kean, a member of the Senate Dis
trict Committee, suggested at last
Wednesdays meeting of the committee
that Federal workers should not drive
automobiles, but should walk to work
for their health.
McQueary suggested Government
workers be provided with insignia so
police would not molest their cars dur
ing working hours. He wrote:
while the Government must plan
and provide the parking space, the
Commissioners of the District of Co
lumbia have the power to regulate traf-
fic on the streets. For the morale and
good of the public service it should be
provided, by act Of Congress. or the
Commissioners. that Government en-
ployes be not molested by traffic officers
for overtime parking until adequate
parking space is provided for them by
the Government.
"Insignias like Congressional or
Diplomatic should identify their cars
to traffic officers. The insignia might
contain the words Govt OmciaP."
McQueary pointed out members OF
the Senate and House did not have to
worry about parking their automobiles,

Mrs. Anne Lindbergh Awarded
Hubbard Medal for Air Feats
Geographic Society Gives
Honor to Woman for
First Time.
Recognizes Ability as
Radio Operator and
Aerial Navigator.

Mrs. Anne Morrow Lindbergh has
been awarded the Hubbard gold medal
by the National Geographic Society for
her brilliant accomplishments as radio
operator, aerial navigator and co-pilot
1t is the first time the medal has been
awarded to a woman.
The award, made by a vote of the
society's trustees, was announced today
by DR.. Gilbert GroSvenor, president of
the society.
Although several women have flown
the North Atlantic by plane, Mrs. Lind
bergh is the only woman so to cross the
South Atlantic. She is also the only
woman to have crossed from America
to Japan by air.
DR.. Grosvenor explained that the
honor was conferred for Mrs Lind
bergh's tireless and skillful work during
the aerial circumnavigation of the At
lantic by Col. Lindbergh and her last
Summer, and for similar activities dur
ing their flight in 1881 from Washing
ton to Toxic Presentation of the
medal is to be made in Washington on
a date to be fixed later.
Mrs Lindbergh's achievements during
the comprehensive survey trip with COL
Lindbergh were unique in several re-
spectS. She travelled more than $4,000
miles in 1913 flying hours, not as pas
senger. but as a co-pilot. She had the
sole responsibility throughout the trip
for radio communication and was COM
mended by veteran wirless operators on
both sides of the ocean as worthy
member of their fraternity, whose sig
nails always came in fast and clear.
Between radio messages Mrs. Lindbergh
found time to share the navigational
nf hlI in,
ceived plaudits for her skill and ac-
curacy. A competent pilot, she also
handled the controls of the high powered
plane at times to relieve Col Lindbergh.
Mrs. Lindbergh had first shown her
ability as radio operator in 1881. when
her signals cracked out of the wilder
ness of Northern Canada, the Arctic re-
gionS of Alaska and the windswept Ku-
rile Islands to reassure the world that
all was we'll on their unprecedented
air adventure. Since then she has given
further study to wireless operation and
is now ranked as an expert.

said today that the nearest approach
to trouble the garden has had since the
cold snap began was the replacement
of two or three panes of glass blown
out Sunday night and the draining of
valve in the heating system yesterday.
Today the force went about its usual
duties tending the plants that require
temperatures ranging from little sbove
frost to tropical heat.
Paget explained that the Botanic
Garden Is heated from the Capitol plant
