PULSE OF

AMERICAN SHIPS

Editor The Times: ! read a
short while back in Casey Davis
sons article about the navy TAX
ing over tho merchant marine.
Now, the conditions on board
American ships today are the
best In the world. The pay is
best with the highest paid over
time, the hours of work are
shortest and the distinction be-
tween officers and men is not
30 great as on foreign ships.
All this was not given 10 the
American sailors by the navy or
the shipowners thsmssl
Those conditions were fought
for by long strikes. sometimes
with the loss of life by the sail
ors' union and the credit for the
conditions aboard American mer-
chant ships today should go TO
the men that sail them.
As far as fearing strikes dur
ing war time on board the ships.
that is foolish. The American
seamen realize their responsible
ity and take certain pride in
the necessity OF their work. We
must remember that the DAYS OF
the cat OF nine tails. etc. have
passed and should not be revived
again ever.
The seamen naturally hate
school ship men because their
training does not include better
ing the conditions on board ships
the way that is successful. The
only proven way Is to demand 1t.

Tobacco Root mountains about 10 miles
north of Silver Star, Madison county,
there is a low grade, scattered deposit

About 10 miles west of Dillon, near
the Ermont gold mine, Beaverhead
county, there is deposit of antimony
oxide on the Comstock claim. This is
being operated by leasers who have
not done sufficient work to give any
idea of indicated tonnage. The ore is
known as stibniconite, an oxidized an
timony sulfide and some of the oxide
still contains cores of the sulfide The
ore can be sorted by color so as to
give a high-grade antimony product

20 years. but Tom. although sleeping
only the normal number OF hours OF
each "a, kept himself apart from the
world and its advances in science and
transportation and everything else that
happened for over 30 years.
English Tom as his friends called
him. in 1923 came to Bozeman for
the first time since 1892. despite the
fact that he had lived all this time
not many miles away. He was taken
for drive about town in an automo-
bile. this being the second time in his
life that he had had an auto ride He
had never seen picture show and
watched the development Of the story
in the pictures with all Of the delight
of child.
Lincoln was born within hearing of
Bow Bells, London, was educated in
a London university, and received a
degree in mining engineering. Forty
nine years ago he came to this country
and went up the Gallatin on a pros
pecting expedition. What happened is
not known, but he soon gave up his
work as a mining expert and settled
down to the life of a trapper. There
he spent the days in trapping and
fishing.

Worms continually threaten the
health and normal development of the
growing flock. The longer poultry is
kept in one place, the greater the
danger of infestation. Experiment sta
ton records show that one-fourth to
one-haf of the fowl examined are in
tested with worms: either roundworms,
tapeworms, cecal worms or capillaria
worms.
Infected fowl constantly discharge
the eggs of worms in their droppings,
providing a continual source of infes-
tation to others in the flock. Round
worm eggs may be picked up directly
by the fowl, but tapeworm eggs spend
a part of their life cycle in many COM
mon insects eaten by poultry. Earth
worms and flies also serve as hosts
1t is hard to find time to move the
growing flock often enough during the
busy summer months on the farm, and
if poultry have been raised for a long
time, it will be difficult to locate clean
range onto which they may be moved
That is why many poultry raisers find
the most practical way to reduce the
degree of parasitic infestation is to
give regular worm treatments through
out the growing season.
Two forms of worm treatments are
available; one is administered indi-
vidually to each fowl, and the other
is given as flock treatment in the
mash. The individual treatment will
assure a uniform dosage, although ii
requires more labor. While the mash
treatment requires less labor, those
individuals that are most severely in
tested often will not have the appe.
tite to eat enough of the indicated
mash to eliminate all the worms. A
wet mash will tempt the appetite and
assure adequate feed consumption.
Worms not only rob the fowl O.
their feed, but they secrete harmful
poisonous toxins. Worms also burrov

in the United States, as the remelting
of scrap is a big source of supply and
in 1889 this secondary antimony
amounted to over 10000 tons. In 1915
the apparent consumption of antimony
from all sources in the United States
was over $4,000 tons and it is believed
that the 1910 consumption was about
twice that much. About IS percent of
the imports of anthony in 1899 came
from Mexico and Bolivia. Formerly
China, with an annual production of
about 5000 tons, supplied the greater
part of our demand but due to the
war in China deliveries have been de-
creasing and the total production in
China in 1889 was only $500 tons Ore
reserves in China, Mexico and Bolivia
are said to be large
One of the principal uses of anti
mony is in the manufacture of storage
batteries. For that use anthony is al
Logged with lead. In 1899 some LOG, 500
tons of antimonial lead were used in
batteries compared with 80 200 tons in
1888. The antimony content of this
material runs from 4 to IL percent,
most of which is supplied by battery
scrap, although some primary anthony
sumed in large quantities in the man
ufacture of babbitt metal for bearings.
In the manufacture of type metal
usually tin, nickel, or copper are added
to the lead-antimony alloy. In the
manufacture of lead conduits to carry
electric wires and cables, antimony
usually is added to give hardness to
the lead. Anthony also is used with
other metals to make ornamental cast
ings. candlesticks and small bric-a-
brac. The principal use in defense ma
terial is the manufacture of artillery
shells, rifle bullets and storage batteries
for mechanical equipment. An alloy
of lead, antimony and copper is known
as Britannia metal and pewter consists
of lead or copper, tin and anthony.
Used in Chemicals
Anthony is extensively used in the
manufacture of chemicals, the output
for 1899 being 1868 tons of oxides and
other salts with an estimated anthony
content of 6,188 tons as compared with
1893 tons of chemicals containing
$3.50 tons Of anthony in 1898. Anti
mony sulfide is used in shrapnel shells
as it produces a dense white smoke
on explosion. thus showing the loca-
ton of the shell burst. Anthony sui
fide also is used for the explosion caps
of rifle and artillery cartridges.
Primary production in the United
States has come from Idaho, Alaska
California, Nevada, Washington and
Montana. The largest deposit in the
United States Is said to be in the
Yellow Pine district, near Stibnite IL
Valley county, Idaho. The Bradley
Mining Co. Of San Francisco Is actively
interested in that district.
