the Pacific coast line, are among
the best ways for visitors to get
the most out Of their vacation.
During the winter season one
of the most interesting travelog
trips Is the tour from Los An
geles north to the Spanish style
city OF Santa Barbara. One route
which takes in seaside movie
homes, wide stretches of the Pa
cif1c beachline and both lemon
and avocado groves.
This tour of approximately 100
miles can be taken by automobile,
sightseeing bus or public trans
portation. 1t is among those sug-
gested for vacationists calling at
the All-Year Club Free Visitors
Bureau at SIT West Sixth street,
in downtown Los Angeles. Here
visitors can obtain free sightsee-
ing maps, highway routing and
bus information.

From the club bureau the
route Is down Wiltshire boulevard,
swank shopping district. Palms
and banana trees-green and lush

modern buildings. many having
sides almost entirely of glass (the
better to enjoy the abundant
Southern California sunshine).
Wiltshire boulevard ends at the
Pacific seashore in Santa Monica,
a community long popular with
ocean-loving film and. radio folk.

heads north On the Pacific Coast
highway. At times the route is
directly alongside wide stretches
of public beaches (several have
fire rings and picnic facilities:
then it climbs into hills from
which sightseers can look down
onto spectacular marine pano-
ramas of sandy beaches and sea-
splashed cliffs.
Beach for Public.
First stop is Carpinteria (Span-

most popular Of winter vacation
places. Santa Barbara boasts
many fine. hotels. They lie along
the seashore and in palm shaded
estates in the hills above town.
Santa Barbara fronts a cres-

AT least l3 mineral elements
are essential for proper animal
nutrition.
But most of these are provided
by nature in Montana.
Phosphorus is the mineral most
likely TO be lacking in Montana
range. hay and grain feeds. This
is the No. consideration in pur-
chasing a mineral mixture.
In areas where salt consump-
tion is adequate. a salt-phos-
phorus mixture will supply stock
needs. Where animals consume
little salt. feeding of protein or
concentrate pellets fortified with
phosphorus is the surest and most
reliable method of assuring ade-
quate phosphorus intake.
Commercial mineral supple
nents used should contain al least
10 percent phosphorus and as lit
lie calcium as possible. since there
is little likelihood of calcium def
cheney in any area of Montana.
There is no reliable information
indicating deficiencies of trace
minerals other than iodine in
Montana. Neither is there infor-
nation indicating adequ u e
amounts of trace minerals in ma
1uraI feeds under all conditions.
Many commercial mineral mix
lures as well as commercial con-
centrafes are fortified with trace
minerals. This is good policy TO
insure against possible deficien-
cies. The premium for such insur-
ance should never be high be-
cause trace minerals are not ex-

grazing of 'hayed" cattle and sheep.
This then means that no extra
amounts of calcium are needed by
our range cattle and sheep.
Phosphorus
The situation with phosphor-
us is entirely different. Phos-
phorus. along with iodine. are
probably our greatest mineral
deficiencies IN our Montana for
ages.
To illustrate this the phosphorus
requirement for pregnant beef cattle

is approximately 0.18 percent of the
total ration. Sheep requirements
are similar. The phosphorus con-
tent of growing forages is highest in
the spring of the year during the
early green growth stage. With ad-
vanced stages of maturity, the phos-
phorus steadily declines along with
the protein content.
Range grass cut from an area
north of Livingston, in July, con-
tanned ola percent phosphorus; in
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-09-15

September, 0.09 percent, and Febru-
ary, 0.05 percent. These figures IL
lustrate the general phosphorus pic
ture in many of our range forages.
That is that in the spring of the year
when the phosphorus content is at
its peak it may still not quite meet
the phosphorus requirements and.
phosphorus is definitely deficient
during the fall and winter months.
Legumes and mixed hay also cam
not be depended on to contain ade-
quate amounts of phosphorus. The
phosphorus content of forages is de-
pended to a large extent on the
available phosphorus in the soil. AL
falfa hay may contain as little as
0.10 to OH percent phosphorus.
The recognition of phosphorus de-
ficient areas in Montana particularly
: in the plains and in many of the 1r-
rigated valleys is not new thing.
These areas have been recognized
for a considerable time. However,
many of the livestock operators ap-
parently do not yet realize the sig
nificance and the Importance of this
phosphorus deficiency.
II should not be implied of
course that forages in all areas
of Montana are deficient in
phosphorus. Experiences of old
time successful operators will
give a good indication of the
phosphorus situation in a partic-
uIar area.
Phosphorus deficiencies in Mon
tana have been observed to be more
serious in cattle than in sheep. Phos-
phorus deficiency in cattle very def
initely impairs the productive per
formance of herd. Phosphoru:
is required for proper formation and
development of bones and is also
required for optimum feed utili-
zation. 1t is probably in some way
connected with the activity of the
micro-organisi in the paunch. A
phosphorus deficiency results in the
loss of appetite, eventual general
starvation, reduced growth and de.
velopment in growing stock, reduced
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-09-15

milk production, and also reduces
the percentage of calf crops.
This apparently is brought about
by an impairment or irregularity of
the normal heat period or breeding
cycle. If phosphorus deficient
cow conceives, there will probably
be little reduction if any in the size
and vigor of the calf at birth since
the phosphorus will be drawn from
stores in the body, particularly the
bones, for the proper development
of the calf.
The chewing of bones, sticks,
leather straps, stones, dirt, corral
posts, and so forth is often reported
as indicating phosphorus def
cheney. Generally this is true and
if this takes place phosphorus de-
ficieney should be suspected. How
ever, there are other deficiencies
which will also cause these same
symptoms. The best test for phos-
phorus deficiency is to have vet
erinarian take blood sample and
obtain an analysis of the phosphorus
content of the blood.
Phosphorus experimentation
The above discussion indicates
that the No. / consideration then in
purchasing a mineral mixture is
phosphorus. The ideal situation is
to have as much phosphorus and as
little calcium as possible, since ex-
ira calcium is not needed.
The convenient way to get phos-
phorus into cattle is of course to mix
bone meal or other phosphorus sup
plements with salt. A mixture of
one sack of iodized salt and one
sack of bonemea1 will usually meet
the phosphorus requirements in bor-
derline deficient areas if about
ounces per head per day are con-
sumed.
However, in many areas salt
phosphorus mixture is not an an
swer to the problem because of the
low salt consumption of cattle. In
fact, in some areas the salt consump-
ton is extremely low and almost
negligible. In those areas the salt

tional information and a picture of
the Montana mineral situation as
far as is known in hopes that such
information will serve as guides in
purchasing mineral mixtures. One
should realize that selecting a min
eral mixture is no different from
purchasing other products on the
market. There are good buys, poor
buys and in-between buys.
Essential Minerals
1t is well established that there
are at least is mineral elements
which are essential for normal per-
formance of an animal body. These
mineral elements include calcium,
phosphorus, sodium, chlorine, potas-
sium, magnesium, iron, sulphur, 10
dine, manganese, copper, cobalt and
zinc.
This does not mean however, that
all IS of the minerals must be sup
piled in mineral mixture to insure
Definitely not. Many of these min
erals are abundantly supplied m
natural feeds and water. Minerals
considered to be adequate in natural
feed stuffs for sheep and cattle in
clude potassium, magnesium, iron,
sulphur and zinc.
Calcium
We often hear and read that cal
cium and phosphorus along with
salt are the mineral elements most
likely to be deficient in our livestock
rations. This is true on a national
basis and considering all species of
farm animals The farm grains are
very low in calcium content and
since they make up large portion
of swine and poultry rations, the ra-
tions of these species are generally
deficient in calcium and require
added amounts of calcium for sat-
isfactory results.
If we consider the calcium
and sheep. we find an entirely
different situation concerning
this deficiency. In brief. it is
very difficult 10 conceive of q
possible calcium deficiency for
range cattle and sheep In winter
or summer IN Montana. This is

well as forages harvested for
hay contain enough calcium 10
meet the requirements of sheep
and cattle and many of these
forages contain considerable
excess of calcium.
For example, the calcium require
ment for pregnant beef cattle is con-
sidered to be about 0.20 percent OF
the total ration. Sheep requirements
are similar. Numerous analyses o1
range forages indicate they win usu-
ally run at least 0.20 percent calcium
and usually considerably more. Ma

stages of maturity.
