PROVE VALUE OF BEET
PRODUCTS FOR FEEDING
With lamb feeding oneratic

With lamb feeding operations
under way in the principal SUI
gar beet areas of the state, E.
P. circuit, extension livestock
specialist at Montana State
college, cites some results OBJ
tanned in feeding trials conduc-
ted at the Montana Agricultural
Experiment station in which
beet 3y-products were used.
A year ago five lots of lambs
were fattened at the Huntley
field station with y5ry satisfac-
tory results. In addition to the
rations containing beet by-pro-
ducts, such as pulp and tops, all
of the lots received alfalfa hay.
One lot of lambs fed half an
half oats and dried molasses
beet pulp made an average daily
gain of As pounds per head at
cost of 1894 per hundred
weight. Thi sWas .!.e highest
gain of any of the five lots.
The next highest gain was
made by a lot fed oats, wet
pulp and dry beet tops. This lot
made an average daily gain of
.112 pounds per head. The cost
Of gain was $497 per hundred
weight. This was the highest
Of the lots.
Another lot fed oats and wet
pulp, without beet tops, showed
an average daily gain of .4O1
pounds per head at a cost of
$500 per hundred weight.
One of the two remaining lots
received oats and corn silage,
making an average daily gain of
"a pounds per head at a cost
of $5.77 per hundred weight.
The check lot received only oats
and made an average daily gain
Of $40 pounds per head at a
cost of 1881 per hundred weight.
These trials demonstrate the
economy of the rations and in
dictate the practical value of dry
or wet beet pulp or beet tops
to the feeder, circuit said.

War Secretary Reported To
Have Differed With The
General Staff
STANLEY IS APPOINTED
Sir John Reith Will Take
Over Minister OF In
formation Portfolio

LONDON, Jan. 5.-(AP)
Prime Minister Chamberlain
unexpectedly reorganized his
cabinet today by dropping his
war secretary, energetic Les
lie Hore-B elisha, who was re-
ported to have differed "vio-
lently" with the general staff
on army administration.
In the shuttle, Lord Mac
Milan, minister of informa-
ton who had come in for
the bulk of Britons' criticism
of their censorship, also re-
tired.
To Oliver Stanley, presi-
dent of the board of trade
and a wheelhorse of the con-
servative party, whose faith
er was war minister in 1916,
went the task of directing
Britain's war office.
Reith Named
Sir John Reith, famous for
his direction of the British
Broadcasting corporation and
head of Imperial Always,
takes over the ministry Of
information portfolio, and Sir
Andrew Rae Duncan, steel
and iron lawyer who has not
been active politically here
tofore, becomes the new pres
ident of the board of trade.
Hore- Belisha who warmly
advocated the selection of the
French general, Maurice Gus
tave Gamelin as generalissi-
mo of the combined French
and British forces in France,
was reported to have had
lukewarm support from his
officers on the army unfit
cation question.
His resignation also was
regarded by observers as a
move to promote good rela-
lions between the army and
the royal air force units in
France.
According to these reports
Hore-Belisha ran counter to
Sir Kingsley Wood, air min
lister, when the war secre-
tary urged a unified COM
mand of the army and air
force in France.

Hollywood heard the news with

Since PowelI's well-publicized 70

before, the last time to Actress
Carole Lombard, now Mrs. Clark Ga

nearly 20 years.
In contrast, his bride is a rising
young starlet She has appeared In
a few films, notably "She Couldn't
Say No." and will return Monday
to take the feminine lead in Forty
Little Mothers"
The couple chose a ranch at Warm
Springs, near Las Vegas, New, fol-
the ceremony. They drove there this
morning from Palm Springs, after

her friendship with Actor Laurence

Holman's move o~ccasioned no sur.

an unknown, to pluck the prize pic
ture plum of Scarlet in Gone With

with Olivier has been noted.
Hollywood understood that Ac-
tress Jill Esmond, Olivier's wife from
whom he is separated, also had filed
her first divorce papers in London.
Through a studio representative,
Miss Leigh said there was nothing
she could say about Holman's suit.
The spokesman reiterated her pre-
vious statement that she and Olivier
had met after both had separated
from their respective mates and that
they both hoped to be free to marry
the latter part of this month.

Taft (R-Ohio), offered a five-point

would balance the national budget

about $1,000, 100000.

ton spending policies for the last
two years and longer, and be-
cause he made his proposal a
short time after the Presidents
budget message, covering the
same ground, had been receiv-
ed, the move was widely inter.
preted as sharply anti-adminis-
tratiOn.
But if, as some were led to
believe by Doughton's attitude
today, the administration is now
preparing to embrace the pro-
posaI, two explanations are pos
sible: That President Roosevelt
is anxious to remove the anti
administration tinge from the
proposed investigation by EN-
dorsing it; or that in his desire
for a national unity session."

WARNED BY NAILS
Told Not To Provide Trans.
it For British-French
Aid To Finland

BERLIN, Jan. 5.oR- In point
ed words apparently rejecting
growing official concern over de-
velopments in Scandinavia, the
Nazi press today warned Norway
and Sweden anew against providing
transit for British-French military
aid to Russian-invaded Finland.
The newspapers, which called
upon the two northern countries
to "clarify their positions" stimuli
%taneously sharpened their drive
against League of Nations members
who were referred to as ~"so-called
neutrals' for agreeing to fulfill the
League covenant by aiding Finland.
The League, of which Germany
ceased to be a member in 1885, is
considered in official Nazidom as a
British-French tool. Hence any
country remaining a member is
held by the Nazis to be more or
less on the allied side.

bore an official tinge, accused the
