TOURIST BUSINESS
AT 36 MILLION
TRAVELLERS IN STATE SPENT THAT
MUCH LAST YEAR, ACCORDING
TO RECORDS

If money spent by tourists in
Montana last year could be divided
equally, every man, woman and
child in the Treasure State would
receive $67.54, MOntanans' Inc,
report.
The compilation was based on fig
ures Just released by the United States
travel bureau which placed tourist
spending IN Montana at $50. 4O5, 248.
Montana ranked fifth IN the nation In
travellers retail expenditures in value
per capita last year.
Nevada, with 5000 per capita, head
ed the list while Wyoming was second
with 1887.
The report says "for the purposes
Of analysis. the per capita value is
more indicative Of travel activity than
is the total expenditure, since the
amount Of travel spending per resident
has a definite relationship to the
amount Of business received from out
side the state"
A breakdown Of the 1898 expendi-
lures indicates that So percent of the
tourists dollar was spent on trans
portation, % percent on recreation and
20 percent on food accommoda
and refreshments.

SWEET CLOVER
HAY HAS FAULTS
IN MANY WAYS ABOUT EQUAL To
ALFALFA, BUT SHOULD BE
FED CAREFULLY
Livestock Should Not Be Required 70
Eat Coarse, Dry Stems Because They
Sometimes Cause Digestive Disturb
ances; Often Results in BlOat.

Many Montana cattle and sheep
operators have put up a consider
able tonnage of sweet clover hay
this year and while it is about
equal to alfalfa hay of the same
quality, still some precautions
must be taken in feeding it to
livestock if trouble is to be avoid
ed, advises Howard G. Lewis, ex-
tension livestock specialist at Mon
tana State college.
In the first place, Lewis said. animals
should not be forced 70 eat the coarse
dry stems In sweet clover hay because
they sometimes cause conpaction and
other digestive disturbances.
The same precautions must be
taken with sweet clover nay as with
alfalfa hay in regard TO bloat. Live
stock should be allowed to gradually
get accustomed TO the feed. The most
satisfactory results are obtained when
sweet clover is fed as part Of the
roughage and sweet clover hay should
not be fed alone for periods longer
than one month. In some instances
sweet clover causes the blood Of cattle
TO become thin and for this reason
dehorning should not be done until
clover and on other feed for at least /
six weeks.
Occasionally sweet clover silage de- I
yelops a type Of mold which produces I
hemorThages in cattle, sometimes with 1
fatal results. Less often this mold de- 4
Velops In sweet clover hay and 1t can /
not be seen with the naked eye. The /
mold may be present only on the In (
side Of the stem and the outside will 4
have a bright normal appearance.
To guard against losses from this |
type of mold, Lewis suggests that 1
where stockmen have only sweet clover
hay TO feed that they first get a
couple of tame rabbits and try them
on the sweet clover feed Rabbits are
quickly affected by the mold and this
Of testing will prevent the loss
Of valuable animals.
When fed with Judgment, sweet
livestock and produces satisfactory re-
suits, Lewis said.

Molasses a Spring Pick-ne-up

With the coming of warmer weather, appetites automatically go into the doldrums. The old-fash- toned remedy for this hstless state included 8 routine dosage of treacle (molasses, to you) as surely as spring came round it was ladled out by spoonfuls to an unwilling fam- ily!
 This molasses milk drink is not a 'stonic" but 1t does prove that mo- lasses in the spring or any other time of year is not 8 bad idea! Mel- low and good, gloriously golden-it's a beverage that's sure to please the palate and delight the eye. It's nourishing, too-just the sort of drink to accompany springtime meals!
 Molasses Milk Drink
 2 cups irradiated evaporated milk
 2 cups water
 2 to tbs. molasses
 Dash of nutmeg.
 Milk and water should be cold. Mix and stir in the molasses. Sprin- kle with nutmeg. Yield: 6 servings.
 Because of its cream-like consis- tency, irradiated evaporated milk is perfect ingredient for the prep aration of milk drinks. This con- venient, economical, whole milk en- riched with extra vitamin D-the vitamin so necessary in the utiliza- ton of the milk minerals in build ing and maintaining sturdy bones and sound teeth-produces drinks which are not only rich in flavor and creamy smooth but very nutri- tious. This molasses milk, drink is particularly wholesome, for mo- lasses is rich in iron, and supple ments the shortage in uor other wise "most nearly perfect food"

 Spring seasonings and garnishes are in order at the moment, and in considering recipes for you I think first of:
 Chicken la Bagatelle The pieces of chicken are sauted in butter until lightly colored, and the pan rinsed with measure of Madeira and one of thick cream. This sauce is used to coat the cooked chicken after it has been arranged upon a hot dish large enough to permit the spring garnish of little new carrots and asparagus heads, both of which have been dressed in butter before placing them around the meat.
 Filet of Chicken Doria i Dip filets of chicken in egg, slightly beaten then in seasoned crumbs and cook in butter until tender and golden brown. Ar range on a hot platter and garnish with shaped cucumbers which have been cooked in butter. When serv- ing add little lemon juice and nut brown butter and garnish with sprigs of parsley.
 To shape the cucumbers you may cut them in halves lengthwise, then in quarters; remove the soft part around the seeds, then cut the quarters into lengths about an inch and half long, shaping around them to give uniformity. Drop the pieces into ice water to firm them then cook in boiling salted water until tender. Drain, add butter and but firm. Mix the pears and cucum- bers and dress with the lemon juice
