any. We did all these things as nearly
as possible. We found you can double
the hay crop with 200 pounds of
AZ percent phosphate. We don't
know how long this increased yield
will last. I'd say three or four years,
anyway.
Calves Prefer Fertilized Hay
In the feeding test we found that
calves will run from a bale of hay
not fertilized to a bale of hay that
was fortified. The difference was
this, the hay that had been fer
tilted was richer looking, darker coll
ored, leafier and had a stronger al
falfa smell.
One of our neighbors started using
phosphate soon after we did. He told
me that he could tell where he used
phosphate and where he didn't this
year in his alfalfa seed crop. He
said he ran out of phosphate on part
of the field. This year when he har-
vested his seed crop. the part that he
missed fertilizing produced about one
third the seed the rest of the field
did that he has phosphated.
Withstand Drouth
The year 1919 was extremely dry
here on Rosebud creek, no moisture
only from the deep snow of the pre-
vious winter and absolutely no rain.
We had three crops of hay off these
fields in 1949 and they were pretty
good crops. The phosphate I'm sure
was responsible for this.
Our cattle used to eat several tons
more bone meal before we phos-
phated our hay than they do since
we feed the phosphated hay.

In l947 we secured five tons of 40
percent super phosphate fir ON an ele-
vator company in Valley City, N. D.
Our Rosebud county agent, Ben Hill,
contacted the company for us. The
deal was this: We were to keep rec
ords of the fields that were fortified,
we were to put on different amounts,
100 pounds to the acre, 200 pounds
to the acre, and keep a check of re-
suits as to productivity.
We were also to feed this hay off
the fertilized acres to certain cattle
and watch the results if any.
When we phosphated a field we
were to skip some here and there
and see the difference, if there was

Hay Crop Doubled
Phosphate Boosts Yield, Quality
Rp DON Mp AZ Poeehx,J Co.ntu
BY DON McRAE, Rosebud County

McRAE RANCH IS one of the old
est ranches in Rosebud county, it
being started in the early 8O's by
John B. McRae.
The hay or bottom land is partly
sub-irrigated. This land in the early
days raised wonderful crops of blue
grass and alfalfa hay. AS time went
by, some of this land produced less
and less alfalfa hay.
In 1915 we bought 500 pounds of
AZ percent phosphate. We put this
amount on three acres of ground that
had been plowed and cropped the
previous year. This piece of ground
yielded very heavy crops of alfalfa
hay ever since.

Berkshires Make
Good Bacon
By C. BARTON BERGSTEDT,
Fremont County, Wyoming


WE ARE PRETTY much out of the
hog country and we are not equipped
as we would like to be for raising
swine. However. still relish good
pork and bacon and the Berkshire,
as proved by their numerous win
nings in carcass contests, certainly
rank among the best in the produc-
ton of quality pork.
It was their quality, uniformity
and aristocratic appearance which
first attracted me to the Berkshires.
In my experience, the Berkshire
sows have been good mothers. They
are usually active, wide awake, yet
of docile disposition.
They farrow and raise moderately
large, thrifty filters of pigs that are
unusually uniform in type, quality
and size. have found them to be
excellent feeders in the dry lot and
also good rustlers on pasture. To date
they have not been as destructive
in roofing up their pastures as some
hogs with which I have had expe-
rience.
AS I stated, we. still do not have
things arranged as we would prefer,
and are not always able to practice
what we preach in our hog opera
tons. The following are a few of
the things / consider important in
general hog management:
Provide clean, sanitary, narrowing
quarters, on new ground, if pos
sibIe. Guard rails, electric light pig
warmers and similar devices will
usually save some pigs, where they
can be installed. A good pasture viii
reduce the cost of grain and in
crease the thriftiness of the pigs.
1t pays to feed balanced ration.
Skim milk, green pasture or alfalfa
hay will aid in reducing the cost of
protein supplements. Water and
some shelter from sun and storms
should be provided at all times.
Breeding stock should have exercise,
be kept in thrifty, but not extremely
fat condition, and handled enough
SO that they are gentle. This will
reduce the difficulties at narrowing
time.

buzzing about health. Probably the
general thought of all is expressed
by council member, B. w. Thomas,
representing the Chinook American
Legion, when he says:
II think Blaine county is just be-
ginning to realize what health inn

bership on the council, keep up our
radio broadcasts and continue to
have the excellent cooperation so
far received, then there is reason to
believe well-rounded public health
program can be developed in Blaine
county that will be second to none.
At any rate, we are started in that
direction"

health programs. Typical are the
achievements of the Blaine
County Health Planning coun-
Gil. which the chairman here re-
ports at the request of the Farm
and Ranch Experience depart
ment.
BLAIN COUNTY is health
minded.
Wherever people gather - in
homes, on street corners, in stores,
at group meetings-the subject of
public health invariable comes up
for discussion. Folks are asking each
other, GLOW can we promote better
health in our county? How can we
make best use of public health serv-
ices? What health problems shall we
tackle next?"
And the answers to these questions
are being worked out-slowly, but
real progress is being made.
1t began with the organization in
the spring of 1913 of the Blaine
County Health Planning council,
with about 80 members. This group
made study of the wealth of help
full material available through the
state department of health at Helena
and the Montana extension service
and delegates attended health con-
ferences at Bozeman, Glendive and
Helena.
Three Main Functions
The council found its functions are
three-fold: To get the information
about health to the residents of
Blaine county, to study the health
needs of the county and to plan for
meeting these needs.
The first objective, getting the in
formation out to the public, has been
met through the cooperation of
Havre radio station and the Chinook
and Harlem papers.
In determining the health needs,
the council found a number of local
situations which could be improved.
Some, like adequate hospital facili-
ties at some points, enlarged facili-
ties to care for the county aged, de-
velopment of a full time public
health department, etc., have been
set up as long range goals.
Others, such as a uniform, county
wide child health program, more
widespread school hot lunches, inn
nominations for children needing
them and revision of the county
board of health to conform with 1945
state legislation were considered
problems which might be tackled
early.
Lunch Program Achieved
Already the desired increase in the
school lunch program has largely
been accomplished. Thanks to the
cooperation of the county public
health nurse, county superintendent
of schools and parent organizations
such as home demonstration clubs
and P. T. A., Blaine county this year
provides an opportunity for from go
to 95 percent of its school children
to have hot lunches.

the school public nurse and volun-
teer helpers handled diphtheria i'm

Meet
Mary
South Pocific's'
Miss Martin
Wins Friends
By Mark Boron

Miss Mary Martin, q lady with
a cute bang on her curly head, is
a happy person. She is a top
flight performer. can sing like a
canary bubbling with honey and
she continues to break Broad
way records.
Miss Martin recently has been
taking a weeks vacation from
her high-faluting show, as she
would say in her native Weather
ford, Texas, drawl, South Pa
cific," which has been around
here for some time. 1t is tune
full musical which continues to
be a top Broadway hit, and has
just reopened after a short vaca-
ton.
Also around is Miss Martins
soft spoken husband. Richard
Halliday, a motion picture execu-
tive. It is a true love match.
Miss Martin, a lady with good
and pretty head on her shoulders
refused to go back to the movies
after her success in South Pa
cific."
She said: MY contract in the
theater doesn't expire until June
1851. and I shall be playing Nellie
in Forty-fourth street right here
until then. After that, I cannot
tell. In England, have many
friends. Also in Texas"
So she has remained on the
stage playing South Pacific and
afflrmS that she will not accep.
any of the Hollywood offers. Miss
Martin has human, heartwarm-
ing quality. Once Katharine Cor.
nell came backstage and asked II
she could borrow Miss Martins
makeup kit because she hao
been crying and the tears have
destroyed my makeup"
Sure, Missy" Miss Martin Saic
to Miss Cornell. A musical show
star thus met a serious drama
star.
Other than South Pacific" Miss
Martin has been singing such
songs of her own as Glad To Be
Unhappy" and Maybe" and "It's
a Lovely Day Tomorrow" Also
she says, she has a new recipe fol
barbecue sauce. But, you will have
to ask Mary Martin in person for
that. And she is the kind of home
girl who will cook it for you
That's Mary Martin.

acting. she'll be remembered Tor
her oomph.
Some Of these marks are
dreamed up by the towns bril-
liant and generally anonymous
press agents, the boys who make
the stars famous. However, some
stars are smart enough to create
their own trademarks, or to capi-
talize on something other folks
might regard as liability.
Lloyd'S Glasses Now Real.
Gloria Swanson, for instance,
has a mole on her chin. Many
women might try to disguise it
with makeup. but not Gloria. In
Sunset Boulevard" as in all her
past films, Gloria's mole is much
in evidence. Without her mole
she says she feels undresSed.
Harold Lloyd was the first actor
to make eyeglasses his hallmark.
For years Harold wore only the
rims-no lenses-because his eye
sight was actually normal. Then
one day small bomb exploded
in his hand during a Photographic
stunt. blowing off two fingers
and soaring his eyes with powder.
Thereafter Harold Lloyd had to
use real spectacles all the time,
but his fans never knew the Diff
ference. They would not have
recognized him without specs,
anyhow.
Perhaps the most famous vari-
alton on this theme is Charles
Coburn's monocle. Kentucky born
Coburn. often mistaken for Britt
ish, has an excellent reason for
the monocle. He has one bad eye,
one good one. So. he reasons, why
wear glasses on both eyes?
However. Coburn is also hep to
the Importance of his monocle as
Ia trademark. 1t is a valuable eon-
versation piece. as well. and every
so often some curious kid pokes
a finger in Coburn's face and
knocks the monocle into his soup.
All this is food for the columnists.
A Boost to Fame.
To illustrate the power Of a
trademark. you need only ask the
average film fan to identify the
following: The Straw Hat, the Ski
Nose, the Trench Coat. Chances
are even a casual moviegoer will
correctly answer Maurice Cheva-
lier, Bob Hope, Alan I.add. Nobody

When Groucho Marx took q role
with Bing Crosby in mfr. Music
a few weeks ago, he grew a mus

like news. Some folks will say
Groucho always did have a mus
tache. But he didn't. It was a
painted-on job. The fact that
Groucho finally decided to go in for
the real thing and make it a per-
manent feature of his funny mug
does have a news twist because 1t
serves to emphasize once again
the tremendous Importance of
trademarks to people in public
life, especially in the world of en-
tertainment.
Every place you turn, a trade
mark reveals its value. In movies
you have Crosby's pipe and golf
sticks. Andy Devine's voice, Sinat-

These are items which stamp
the players firmly in the public

But does that make her happy?
No. Linda says a devil sprite fol-
lows her around, waiting to slap
her down as soon as she enjoys
even a modicum of happiness.
"I've begun to think there's
something to the law of compensa-
ton. I've had all of the good
things any woman could ever de-
sire-and most of the bad things
no woman wants"
She almost lost her husband

minor irritations'' parted them
two years ago. She recently lost
her savings, amounting to $50, 900
when her affairs were mishandled
She wanted children so madly
that her friends feared. at one
time, 1t might lead to a serious
neurosis. But Linda Is learning tc
lick the tough breaks.
1T took a six months separa-
ton for Pew and me to discover
we couldn't live without each
other" the brunette beauty tells
me. What we had thought was
incompatibility were silly little
things that got on each others
nerves. We've eliminated them
and now hope to build happy life
for ourselves. We're like a couple

Our next will be a little boy
one with dark hair. Lola's fair
like Pew. I'd like the boy to look
like me. After that, we'll adopt
or I think a better word for it is
'choose'-others. I'm from a fam
lily of five myself. That's just
about right.
And as for the savings. Well
it's fortunate it happened at this
time in my life. I can start all
over again. It's not like losing
your life's savings at 60."
Linda's career, too. has some
times run a hectic course. But
apparently she has licked that
also. Now recognized as a good
actress. she has just finished play
ing a human derelict in Daryl F.
