Suffolk Rams d
Better Lambs

A 1947-48 COMPARISON of Suf-
folk and Hampshire rams by the
Wyoming experiment station for
their ability to produce market
lambs when used on typical range
ewes showed in favor of the Suffolks
On a final tally, a report from the
station said.
A final summary of the lambs pro-
duced in the comparison showed a
larger number of Suffolk-sired lambs
reaching the market, with the Suf-
folk lambs averaging heavier in
weight than the Hampshire-sired
animals. A total of lat Suffolk-sired
lambs weighing 1920 pounds was
sold at the end of the season, while
IA Hampshire-sired lambs with a
total weight of 1896 pounds were
marketed.
Although the final comparison
favors the Suffolk-sired animals, &C.
cording to r. H. Burns, head of the
station wool department, ewes on
which Hampshire rams were used &C
tually produced a larger number of
lambs and a greater aggregate of
lamb weight at lambing time. Losses
from death or by straying during
the summer reduced the Hampshire
total below that of the Suffolk-sired
total.

Remount Service
Saddle stations owned by the
Agricultural Remount service will
be called in on or about April l, ac-
cording to word received by the
Great Falls Saddle club. In Montana
at the present time there are in the
neighborhood of 100 remount stall
lions. Most of these are thorough
bred horses, with some Arabian
stock also.
The program of the service, to
loan stations of high merit to in
dividual horsemen for their use and
for the use of the community at
large for a small fee, has been car
ried on since the days of the cav
airy. To a large extent the excellence
of the saddle type horses of the coun-
try is due to this program. Discon-
tinuance of the service will be a loss
to both the horse and cattle industry
in this area.

President Assures
Indonesia Of Support
AsIndepend lent Natior

President Truman has assured
the new republic Of 1ndonesia
that it may count upon the SYM
pathy and support of all who be-
lieve in democracy and the right
Of self-government."
The President congratulated the
1ndonesian people on attaining
their independence from the
Netherlands in a statement issued
late yesterday, soon after H. Merle
Cochran presented his creden-
tials as United States Ambassador
at Jakarta formerly Batavia /,
capital of the new state.
Asserting that this country
looks forward to admission Of the
new republic as member Of the
United Nations, Mr.. Truman said:
"Indonesia has already DEM
onstrated that the goal Of the
new state will be true nationalism
for Indonesia and that aggressive
acts and efforts Of the part Of
foreign relationships to subvert
this newly won independence will
be resisted with vigilance"
This was an obvious reference
to anti Communist action by the
1ndonesian leaders, which is ex-
pected to result in Russian opposi-
ton to United Nations member
ship for the new nation.
Formal recognition of the 1ndo-
nesian republic. planned to CO.
incide with inaugural ceremonies
Tuesday, was delayed until yester-
day when Mr.. Cochran was held
up by weather on a flight to ia
karta to present his credentials.
The Indonesians asked for Mr..
Cochran as their first Ambassador
from the United States. An ace
career diplomat. he represented
this Government on the United
Nations Commission which played
an important role in the long nego-
tiations leading to Indonesiar
independence.
Mr.. Cochran had been named
Ambassador to Pakistan last
March, but never filled the post.
Avra M. Warren, now Ambassador
to Finland, was named Ambassador
to Pakistan in his place. Edward
A. Dow, jr.. who had been an as
sistant to Mr.. Cochran, was named
to his post on the U. N. commits

Cheese Rules

To make the most of the plenti-
full cheese on markets this spring,
three rules are suggested to the
cook by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
First, go easy on heat. Cheese
needs only enough heat to melt
and blend with other ingredients.
High heat or too long cooking
makes it tough, stringy and lea
thery. Also too much heat may
cause curdling in mixtures of
cheese, egg and milk.
Second, add cheese to other in
gradients in very small bits rather
than in one large piece. When
broken up, cheese spreads more
evenly and quickly among other
ingredients, does not form a solid
lump or curd when the fat melts
up, and allows the mixture to
cook in a shorter time. Grating is
the easiest way to break up hard
or dry cheese. Soft cheese may
be shaved thin, flaked with a
fork, pressed through a sieve or
run through a meat grinder.
Third, blend cheese in a smoothe
sauce before adding to other in
| gradients whenever possible to
prevent curdling. A white sauce
with cheese melted in it may be
poured over cooked vegetables foi
a scallop, into beaten eggs fol-
Welsh rabbit, or on macaroni be.

/. Can an unborn baby be cur

Answer: Yes, if the case of
syphilis is diagnosed in the ex-
pectant mother soon enough. Be
fore the fifth month of pregnancy
the baby can be cured along with
the mother in almost all cases.
After the fifth month it becomes
increasingly difficult for the baby
to be cured and therefore the
chances of curing the unborn child
are considerably reduced.
