To Mississippi Valley Group at
Washington-Dr. L. H. Labbitt
Joins Dam Lobby.

The proposal for the construc-
ton of the Big Horn canyon dam,
SO miles south of Hardin, was
placed before the Mississippi val
ley committee in Washington, D.
c., Monday, by John J. Harris of
Chicago, representing the propon-
ents Of the gigantic project, ac-
cording to a Washington, D. c.,
special to the Billings Gazette.
MI. Harris, with the aid of Sen
ator J. E. Erickson of Montana,
has been working t~irelessly to
have the project approved by the
wal department.
Some days ago Mr.. Harris was
advised by the war department
that the Big Horn project had
been turned down because of its
high cost, but that a revision in
the estimates could be obtained if
recommended by the Mississippi
valley committee. The Hardin man
promptly arranged a meeting with
the committee, an agency of the
public works administration, COM
posed of engineering experts of
the federal government.
The proposed dam, 500 feet in
height, with power and irrigation
facilities, would be constructed
across the Big Horn river SO miles
south of Hardin at a cost of ap-
proximately $17,647, 900, according
to data gathered by MI. Harris
from reports by the late Gen.
George W. Goethals. prominently
identified with the construction of
the Panama canal; Hugh l..
Cooper of New York, nationally
known water power builder, and
A. w. F. Koch of Hardin, chief
engineer of the Big Horn project.
1.-The project will serve to con-
troll flood water. erosion and sedi-
ment flow along the Big Horn,
Yellowstone, Missouri and Missis-.
sippi rivers Mr.. Harris informed
the committee, land in addition
will aid navigation, provide aux
iliary water for existing irrigation
canals, place $1,000 acres of land
under irrigation, and develop from
$4,000 to ESQ., 900 horsepower of
electricity.
I'm conserving the waters of the
Big Horn beneficial assets are eff
fected instead of liabilities to the
extent of 10 times the damages"
He vigorously urged that the
flood water be checked at its
source, thereby adopting the
ounce of prevention policy rath-
er than the pound of cure. which
has been the vogue" To do this,
Harris continued, will entail the
construction not only of the Big
Horn canyon project but of many
lesser projects along the upper
reaches of the Big Horn, some of
which have already been surveyed.
Harris also showed that every
such project built would lessen the
silt flow into Big Horn canyon,
and that which did assemble there
could be dredged out at the mini
mum of cost by peak power at the
dam. It was apparent that his

HARDIN RAISES $4,000
FOR CRIPPLED CHILDREN
From the Presidents Birthday
BalIs-Billings Orthopedic
Gets One-Half.

The two dances given in Hardin,
Tuesday evening, on the occasion
of. the SIND birthday anniversary
of President Franklin D. Roosevelt,
were the most largely attended af-
fairs of the kind ever held in
Hardin. Both halls, the Warren
hall, where music was furnished
by the Swindle six-piece dance
band, and the Sullivan hall,
where old-time dance music va
furnished by the Wagner orches-
ira, were crowded to the limit by
happy, orderly throngs.
An simplifying apparatus had
been installed in the Warren hall
and the speech of President
Roosevelt at 800 was heard as
distinctly as if the president had
been there in person. His talk on
the Georgia Foundation at Warm
Springs, Georgia where he was
treated for the dread infantile
paralysis with which he was
stricken at the age of 80, in
August, 1921, was listened to with
keenest interest. He told of the
noble work in aid of the infantile
paralysis sufferers done at this
institution and spoke his gratitude
to the people of the country as a
whole for the financial aid as a
result of the 5000 Presidents Balls
given on his SIND birthday, which
makes of it the most happy BIRTH
day of his life.
While the returns from the two
dances in Hardin are not yet COM
plete, all expenses have been paid,
thanks to the liberal donations by
the various lodges and other or
CARNATIONS of the city, leaving
the receipts from the sale of tick
cts, clear. On Thursday evening,
just before going to press, Chair
man J. A. Koebbe told the Trib-
une-Herald that at least $3.50 was
Melted, which means that the
Georgia Foundation will receive
at least SITS, and the Billings
Orthopedic hospital at Billings,
SITS as its one-half of the net
proceeds.
The receipts were swelled ap-
probably by the action Of L.
Reuben Elarth, Of the Hardin
Bakery, who donated two large
birthday cakes, each bearing So
candles, which were auctioned off,
with County Attorney c. c. Quinn
acting as auctioneer. to the high
est bidders. The cake in the War
rem hall, where the largest crowd
assembled, brought a few dollars
more than the one auctioned off
at the Sullivan hall. the two
bringing a total Of $42.40 One
cake was bid in by Henry Pitsch
Of Crow Agency the other by
Henry Kray. Hardin dairyman.
A detailed statement of receipts
and expenses will be given after
all ticket sales are in.

SECOND ANNUAL LAMB
FEEDERS DAY A SUCCESS
. I. M. c. Anderson of the Mon
ana Extension Service at Boze-

by I. M. G. Anderson of the Mon
tana Extension Service at Boze-
man. =.
It was clearly brought out by
Geo. Custer, who is in charge Of
the sheep, that the lambs are be-
ing, fattened onfa daily ration Of
approximately two pounds Of dried
moasses beet pulp, two ounces of
cotton seed meal and 1k to 2
pounds Of alfalfa hay. A supple
mental mixture OF; phosphate and
salt IS supplied for the mineral.
In this feeding, the pulp is fed in
s~elf-feeders and the amount they
actually eat Is controlled by limit
ing the amount Of alfalfa hay. BY
this method Of feeding, a very
satisfactory gain has been and is
being made, and all lambs ship
ped to date have topped the
market on the days on which they
were sold.
The crowd then adjourned to
60 to dinner at the Methodist
church, to which ample justice
was done.
The afternoon program, held at
the church; consisted of a series
of slides, which were thoroughly
EXPLAINED by o. o. Wagner, agri-
cultural agent for the Burlington.
These slides gave many illustra-
lions Of feed-yard equipment and
methods of feeding, as well as
showing desirable types of feeder
lambs.
I. M. c. Anderson followed with
his charts showing results obtain
ed at various experimental feed
yards in Montana and brought
out some interesting facts, the
principal ones of which were as
follows:
1. That by adding calcium
phosphate to the average feeders
ration, a slight additional gain
could be made.
Z. That oats still proved itself to
be an efficient gain-maker, fed
with beet pulp and alfalfa hay,
and in some respects was super
ior to barley.
8. That barley alone as a grain
supplement did not put the final
finish desired on lambs.
c. D. Adams of Sidney, district
superintendent of the Holly Sugar
Corp, followed with a discussion
as to the value of the manure OBJ
tanned from feeding to the pro-
duction of beets, illustrating his
point with figures from the Sid
ney and Worland districts, where
farmers have increased their pro-
duction from non-profitable ton
nages to exceptionally good ones.
He further stated that he hoped
the farmers here would avail
themselves of the proposition Of
fered by the company, the past
year, let farmers take company
owned lambs on a gain basis, the
the farmer being paid for the
number Of pounds he actually put
on the lambs. He stated that this
offer would no doubt be made
again this fall.
An open discussion followed, af-
ter which the meeting adjourned.

Holiywood-war ia raging tho film capital once moro-thie tim@ between the Paramount studio and the Wampaa.

They are Ev- elyn Venable, Frances Drake, Dor othy Dell, Helen Mack, Elizabeth Young, and Ida Lupino.
 Tho current battle recalls the one staged several years ago bee tween the Fox studio and the Wampaa. This fight started over the fact that no Fox actress was picked as baby star that year.
