MONTANA CALF
SHOWS PLANNED
STATE STOCKMEN INTERESTED IN
EVENTS SLATED FOR BILLINGS
AND GREAT FALLS
Dates for Shows Not Definitely Set,
But Quite Likely Will Be Held in No
vember; Calves to Be Entered Will
Not Require Special Feeding.

Many Montana stockmen are
thinking of entering calves in the
feeder calf shows that will be held
this fall at Billings and Great Falls,
according to I. NJ C. Anderson, cx- Il
tension livestock specialist at Mon
tana State college. The dates for
the two shows have not been defin-
itely set yet, he said, but it is quite
likely they will be held in Novesn-
Der.
Anderson has received number of
inquiries about the shows from etock-
men in nearly every section of the
state. The chief reason for the interest
being shown is the fact that calves to be
entered will not require special feeding
or fitting other than usual practices,
with possibly the exception of dekorn-
ing, the specialist explained:
In connection with dehorning Ander-
son reminds stockmen that show
calves would look better and probably
bring higher prices if they were prop
erly dehorned. The earlier in the calf's
life the horns are removed the better.
Bruises caused by horns detract from
the appearance of a carcass and lower
its sale value.
Anderson recommends three methods
of dehorning calves. Dehorning paste
which Is applied directly on the norm
buttons without previous preparation,
ISIS simple method for dehorning young
calves on the range. The dehorning
spoon is good instrument to gouge
out the horns of calves under months
old, and the Barnes dehorner is suit
able instrument for dehorning calves
from months to a year old.
Cattle one year old or older that nave
not been dehorned have generally de-
veloped a good horn that must be re-
moved with saw or one of the several
types of heavy horn clippers, Anderson
said. Cattle of this age suffer moro, are
recover than those dehorned as calves.

"Slow up" he snapped. 'We're
pullin' up on Pink. We're out here
to hold this gang back instead OF
haul 'em up. Git yore Winchester
loose, kid"
Johnny pulled the rifle from the
boot beneath his left thigh and
ilevered in a cartridge. Then he and
Tex hauled their nervous mounts
down to a leisurely lope. The
horsemen in the rear came up fast
and Tex watching them closely,
measured the distance.
-Four hundred yards" he an
nounced finally. Fan 'em a couple,
Johnny"
Obediently Johnny turned and
slammed five shots to the rea 1t

a running horse, but the following
band made a big mark and at the
fifth shot a horse went headlong,

"Yeah, fer a minute" answered
Johnny, ~feverishly plugging more
shells through the loading gate.
'But they're gonna spread out.

"Nemmine. Pink's almost out O
that's the main thing"
As Johnny had said the pursuers
had spread out and no longer pre-
sented a solid mass to shoot at.
From now ON any fire Johnny
give through his rifle would
perforce be merely haphazard with
chances for a hit very small, at
least while his own horse was in
motion.
The dull thudding of gun-shots
sounded in the rear but only one
lone bullet sang past. Tex, quick
to read this sign smiled grimly.

You needn't avoid it altogether, but

IF everyone could loaf under the
1 trees in hot weather, slipping cool
drinks and making no effort, there
would be no heat prostrations, and
everyone would be happier. But
this imperfect world does not per-
NIT the human animal to do that
for more than a few moments at a
time. We can, though, increase our
comfort considerably by observing
a few simple rules during the worst
hot weather.
l. Don't wear clothes that are
tight anywhere. You need easy cir
culation of the blood.
2. Eat light foods like salads and
fruits as much as you can. and go
light on hot and heavy dishes. Eat
slowly.
8. Wear light clothes and wear
hat against the direct rays of the
sun.

of courage returned to him and he
advanced threateningly into the

it. C'mon Johnny, the story's told.

The two partners made their way
to the street, Tex watching Spelle
warily over his shoulder. Down the
street Ronny and Pink Crosby were
waiting at the blackboard. Further
On, tied in a line at the hitching rail
before the Starlight Saloon, was a
sroun of horses, all wearing the
Double S iron. Tex's face was fur
rowed and serious as he reached the
blackboard.

in that rig an light out for home.

to ramble all mornin'. Let 'em out.
Pour the whip into 'em. Burn the

"You don't think there will be

Don't think a thing, Miss

beautiful grin. "Nemmine us, Miss
Ronny. Me an this ole sand rat

cussed onery to stop lead. Pink,
shake them reins. See yuh while
ago."
Pink spun the blackboard around
on n wheel and turned the bron-
cos loose in a wild run up the
street. AS the blackboard passed the
bank Spelle leaped out into the
street with a bawl of anger, shaking
his fists above his head. Then he
headed down towards the saloon at
a clumsy run.

Tex crisply. Leads due to fly in

In a moment Tex and Johnny
were squirting after the rapidly dis
appearing blackboard. As they
cleared the edge of the town the
dim roar of voice reached their ears.
