Explains Proper Feeding
OF Dairy Cows

BOZEMAN.-While the profitable
feeding of grain to dairy cows de-
ponds largely upon the ratio be-
tween grain prices and the prices
of dairy products, there are several
other factors that enter into the
practice, says J. O. Tretsven, extern
sion dairy specialist at Montana
State college
Among these are the feeding of
grain to poor cows Cows of low
productivity, he said, will not pay
for their grain if they receive a lib
eral allowance of good roughage
Another factor is the feeding of an
unbalanced ration which results in
low production of milk and but
terfat.
Feeding of grain may prove un-
profitable. Tretsven went on, If it
is not done at the opportune time
It is a good practice to feed the dry
cows in such way as to have them
in good thrifty condition at calving
time. Some dairynen overlook the
importance, too, of feeding cows lib
orally after calving SO as to stimu
late the milk flow.
Other factors which enter into
the picture include undertaking of
heavy producers, and careless feed
ing and management.
In the main, Tretsven believes,
careful feeders find it profitable to
feed grain to dairy cows when con-
ditions are favorable.

tsDogger', With Sheen Herds

In the list of strange occupations
can be named that of the logger, "
a well paid trapper, a specialist in
his way, employed by the sheep sta
ton owner. The Australian native
dog is a wild, strong, silent, cum
ming, ferocious beast that kills
sheep. known as the "dingo," he
roams the back country and causes
much damage to f1ocks. The dogger
sets a circle of baited steel traps
around the station boundaries. The
double jaws OF the trap are bound
with cloth sprinkled with strych-
nine: otherwise the dingo would es-
cape by gnawing its leg off. There
is danger in the lonely life OF the
dogger, for the dingo does not hest
tate to attack q man.

Keep Skin Clean to
Prevent Acne Is
Advice to the Y Dung
Local Treatment Is Best,
Say the Dermatologists

Chicago-For acne-the ado
lescent's congratulated skin
cleanliness brings the best re-
suits.
That improperly functioning en-
doctrine glands are probably respon-
sponsible for acne, medical re-
search examiners believe. But no
glandular substance found is enough
better than local treatment to jus
tify the expense and effort of its
administration.
Thirty-nine students at the Uni
versity of Iowa have recently been
treated for acne as part of scien-
tific experiment. DR.. Grace. E. Will
liams, medical adviser to women,
and Dr.. Ruben Nomland, profes-
sor of dermatology at the univer-
sity, report their observations on
these students in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
With evidence pointing to a def
cheney of sex hormone in acne pa
TENTS, the Iowa physicians began
their study. They took twenty-eight
women students and eleven men,
the average being nineteen years.
Of these eleven had severe, twenty
moderately severe, and eight mild
acne.
Hormone Treatment Not Effective.
All thirty-nine students were asked
TO give meticulous attention to de-
tails in the care and treatment OF
their skin. In addition, twenty Of
them were treated with sex hor-
mones, while the remaining nine
teen were also given injections but
the injections were merely sterile
water. The students did not know
which were getting hormone sub
stance and which were getting wa
ter.
Treatment went on for from four
to six months with IS per cent of
those given the hormone substance
showing moderate to marked i'm
provement and 70 per cent of the
control group given sterile water
showing the same degree of i'm
provement.
The Iowa doctors concluded at
the, end of the experiment that a
deficiency of the pituitary-like hor-
none is not an important factor in
causing acne and that the local
treatment is still the best bet for
controlling acne.
Here are the instructions for local
treatment of acne given to most of
the students:
Stop all picking and squeezing
Discontinue the use of all cosmetic
creams. Wash with soap and wa
ter twice daily, keeping the skin
nongreasy almost to the point of
scaling. Eat diet low in carbohy-
drates. Eat no candy. Remove
blackheads by placing hot towels on
the face for FIVE minutes, then ap-
plying a thin coating of 3 per cent
resorcinol in cold cream to the face
and again applying hot towels for
five minutes. The blackheads are
then squeezed out with comedon
remover, the face rinsed with cold
water and hamamelis water ap-
piled. Apply prescribed lotion two
or three times day Avoid iodized
salt. Shampoo the hair twice a
week.

Odd Head Decorations

Aristocratic French women, short

We'd with one another in decorating
their headdresses. Their large wigs
were adorned with such toy orna-

says Golfers Weekly, was the Kit

dress included dishcloth, bunch
