STATES TURKEY
OUTPUT GAINING
MONTANA SENT HALF MILLION
POUNDS TO MARKET DURING
I939-4O SEASON
Growers Justified in Increasing Their
Production Considerably in Future,
Reports Miss h. E. Cushman, Exten-
sion Specialist at State College.

Although turkey production In
Montana is on the upgrade again
and the state sent better than a
half million pounds to market dur
ing the 1939-1940 season, growers
are fully justified In increasing
turkey production considerably In
the future, says Miss H. Z. Cush-
man, extension poultry specialist
at Montana State college.
During the marketing season just
closed Montana producers shipped a
total of 554,913 pounds of turkeys to
market through cooperative marketing
associations, Miss Cushman said This
is about half the normal amount OF
turkeys the state usually sends to mar
ket and an increase of 281 AL pounds
over the 273, 472 pounds marketed dur
ing the 1938-1939 season. Shipments
by pools during the 1937-1938 season
totaled 1854, 405 pounds and the 1886
1887 shipments totaled 1,097,712 pounds
These figures are for pool shipments
only and do not take into account
shipments made by individual growers
independently of the co-operatives.
Miss Cushman believes Montana can
stand considerable expansion In tur-
key production because this state has
always raised a high quality bird that
4nlNlo a lCdQy Aild4hCb Ii CcAoO~AA NAS4So
Furthermore, she points out, this state
has an abundance of cheap feeds such
as alfalfa and wheat which are ideal
for producing turkeys with an excel
lent finish.
The trend in turkey production is
away from the small farm flock and
toward the large commercial flocks OF
at least 1000 birds and usually more
There is room in the state for an in
crease in commercial flockS, Miss
Cushman said and by growing turkeys
efficiency and economy in handling
the birds. Some commercial growers in
Montana who have kept careful rec
ordS of their costs show that turkeys
can be raised here for a total net
cost of IL cents a pound. Even at Is
cents a pound, which is the lowest
price growers have received in the last
10 years, there is still good net
profit.
In recent years the state of Virginia
has increased its turkey production
tremendously and is finding a profit
able market in New York Yet "a study
Of freight rates shows that because
of the lower rate on the long haul,
Montana turkeys can be laid down in
New York at only about cent pound
more than turkeys from Virginia. This
would indicate, Miss Cushman said,
that even though Montana is a long
way from big markets, still turkeys
can be sold at a satisfactory profit
on the eastern market

Helena SpOrtsBlen
Want Shorter Fish
Season ire Montana

The Helena Fish and Game associ-
alton has decided 10 ask the state fish
and game commission for q shorter
fishing season as a means of conServ-
Ing fish so there win be more for fu-
ture Montana anglers and tourists. A
resolution adopted by the club points
out the days of meat fishing" are
over, and that winter fishing Is the
hardest on the fish population.
The association favors a season be-
ginning May 81 as at present, and
ending Nov. IS, instead Of March 90.
Fishing In rivers would not be affected
by the proposed change. Al Riegel Of
Helena, president of the group, said
other sportsmen's clubs throughout the
state win be asked to join the Helena

CHAPTER XIII

The checkerboard Of the little
streets and the long, wavering pale
lines that were the beach and the
surf fell away below. The world,
only map now, wheeled and shift
ed: the plane settled to a steady
droning flight through silver space.
Her thoughts wheeled and circled,
too; she was planning busily. Her
great adventure was almost over;
it had been a time Of shame and
pain and anger, and yet Sheila knew
that she was emerging from it rich
er by far than the girl of few
weeks ago.
Mas life was richer, with this
new friend to help her. Joe had a

publicity that had suddenly dragged
a respectable family into the lime
light, at least she had been very
kind to Sheila, and Sheila hoped that
after quiet weeks-months-of re-
turn to normal conditions, she might
think of Sheila Carscadden with
friendliness and liking again.
But more than all this, more than
the excitement and change and sur
prise for which Sheila and Angela
had so often prayed, Sheila knew
that there was deeper gain. Her own
soul had been racked and stretched
and stimulated into new growth. AT
twenty-one she could not analyze
all this, yet she was conscious OF
new wings beneath her spirit, and
new courage to face the days that
were ahead.
She would go home and begin to
live on lines completely different
from the old haphazard ways of the
past. There should be dignity I'M
der teasing and innuendo, there
should be loving service quietly and
simply rendered. Dishwashing
should be ennobled, and Sheila
would brush her hair hundred
times every night, and rise in time
for a bath every morning. And as
for reading
"Oh, love it to slide like this!"
she shouted to Frank, as the deafen-
ing throbbing of the engine gave

way to stiffness, and the plane in
terrupted her musing with a grace
full forward gliding, like a gull.
And instantly the line between I'M
thinking safety and desperate need
to save life-just life-was bridged,
and Sheila's throat was thickened
and her heart stood still She saw
the world rush up at them, the
fields with lines of black trees on
snow, the long gray and white curve
of surf. She clutched Frank, as they
both instinctively struggled in their
seats, and buried her face in his
shoulder.
Then there was rending sound of
wood, and metal shrieking, and her
self shrieking. And then two long,
droning means, with her eyes shut,
and pain like fire at her shoulder.
Then blackness.
After a long while and a dead
silence, someone said conversation
ally, you're all right now, aren't
you, dear?" and Sheila answered DO
litely, "I'm fine, thank you. Except
my head was sort of buzzing-"
"Straighten the poor thing out a
little" some woman said compass
sionately; look how her arms
twisted under!"
Better leave things like they are
until the ambulance gets here" a
mans voice demurred.
Sheila did not know they were
speaking of her until someone be-
gan gingerly to raise her shoulders.
It felt more comfortable, and she
said feebly, Thanks"
"Her mouths all blood, she's
burst a blood vessel" the first
speaker said in a whisper.
There seemed to be good many
persons murmuring and moving
about. Sheila was conscious of no
interest, much less concern, in what
was going on. Consciousness waned,
strengthened, waned again. She
heard a tumble of words.
Hes took up his last planet"

Comanche, Captain Keogh's
Horse, Honored i'm New Book

sole survivor of Clusters last stand"
Captain Luce has searched the records
of the Seventh cavalry and has pro-
duced for the first time, a true and
complete account of the army life of
this famous cavalry horse.
tain Keogh and Comanche, the author
has included much of the Indian cam
paigns of General Custer and the
Seventh cavalry. The battle of the
Washita, and the Wounded Knee creek
campaign receive careful treatment, as
does the battle Of the Little Big Horn,
of course. In the several appendices
able source material obtained from the
Seventh cavalry records, which has
never been published before.
Captain Luce is the logical man to
write this history. He served in the
United States army for more than 70
years, advancing through the ranks
from private to captain. Some of these
airy. with the result that Captain Luce
knows the history and traditions of
the Seventh cavalry as well or better
than any man living. He elaborated
in writing the illustrated Review of
the Seventh United States Cavalry" in
1903. with Gen. E. S. Godfrey, Gen. w.
S. Edgerly and Col. Charles A. Var
1866 to 1908 He is now writing the
history of the regiment covering the
years 1909 to 1910 Within recent years
Captain Luce has reorganized the his
torical records of the Seventh cavalry
at its station at Fort Bliss, Tex. 1t is
from these irrefutable records that the
author has produced the major portion
of this book.
The book is ably written in fluent
lively STYLE The story moves because
the characters are men of action and
daring. Yet the story is a true one
Captain Luce is a diligent searcher
after facts, and has taken every means
to make his book authentic and fac
