Effects Only Temporary

In another set of experiments,
clean grain was substituted for the
grain containing ergot for two or
three weeks before narrowing. These
sows had a nearly normal milk sup
ply. This indicates that the effect
of the ergot is temporary in nature.
In another experiment it was found
that barley containing only " of 1
percent, or l ergot kernel to 200
barley kernels, also caused a COM
plete loss of milk and the pigs died.
Apparently, barley or other grain
containing ergot to the extent of 0.5
percent is dangerous to feed to dairy
cows and soWs.
Since the sows in the experiments
remained in good health and the
dairy COWS also, it might be that
such grain could be used for dry
cows or fattening hogs. OF course,
if the ergot content is high, running
5 to 10 kernels of ergot per 100 of
barley, then the grain is not safe
to fees to anything.
There - no easy way to separate
ergot from berley. Probably half the

Care Advised In Feeding
Ergot Infested Barley
By DR.. HOWARD WEIGH

ERGOT IS A FUNGUS growth
found most commonly in rye, quite
often in wild rye grass and some
times in barley. 1t is found in the
mature grain heads, apparently re-,
placing kernel of grain; dark
purple or black mass about the
thickness of barley kernel and
about an inch long. Some of the
fungus masses are twisted or curved,
and all of them are extremely hard.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1950-11-15

Ergot is found in many grasses
and grains, but is of interest to us
in Montana because it is SO common
ly found in barley and has def
nitely poisonous effect on livestock.
The effect of ergot is to construct
the small terminal blood vessels, in
extreme cases shutting off the blood
supply altogether. In the publica-
tons on ergot of 30 to so years ago,
it is stated that the feet, tail-tip and
ears of cattle may be sloughed off
altogether. None of us in recent
years has seen anything like this.
possibly because stockmen have be-
come more cautious about feeding
grain that runs heavy in ergot
kernels.

Markets at q Glance

Prices-Farm prices probably will hold up
better in next six months than last year
= Cattle-Steady to slightly higher prices are
probable for medium, good and choice grades
in next two months.
Hogs-Prices probably will rise to late
summer peak.
Lambs-Moderate price decline is probable
during summer.
Wool-Increased mill demand probably will
cause further price rise.
Wheat-Present crop prospect is near do
mestic and export needs.
COrn-Eventual1y, a rise to the loan
demption value is probable.
Flaxseed-Free stocks appear to be below.
needs for rest of season.
Seeds-Increased harvest of timothy, bronze,
bluegrass, redtop and sweet clover needed.
Feeds-June pastures probably will cause
price setback.
Hay-Prices probably will be relatively lower
than for feed grains.
Dairy observation-disclosures price rise Is prob
able in second half of
Eggs-Steady to slightly higher prices are
probable for fine grades.
Poultry-Large supply will mean steady to
weak prices
Potatoes-Increasing new crop supply prob
ably will weaken prices during June.

nestle and export requirements.
Further damage could mean that
prices would have to go high enough
next season to draw some wheat
from government stocks. But, better
weather could improve the crop
enough to add to the surplus.
FLAxSEED-Prices probably win
rise slightly closer to the loan re-
demption value. Total stocks on
April / were about 31,7OO,OO0 bush
els, but about 100000 bushels
were owned by the. government or
were in purchase agreement or loan
stocks, so that free" stocks may be
insufficient for seed and mill crush
ings during the rest of the season.
SEEDS-Increased harvests of
forage seeds, especially timothy,
bromegrass, blue grass, redtop and
sweet clover seeds are needed this
year. Prices show greater advances
over prewar than red and alsike
clover, alfalfa and lespedeza seeds
and most other forage seeds.
DAIRY PRoDUCTs-Steady to
slightly lower prices can be ex-
pected in the next month or six
weeks followed by moderate rise

in the second half of the year. In
the next two or three months, pro-
duction will be at or very near a
record high rate and will run ahead
of consumption and private storage
demand at prevailing prices.
EGG-Prices probably will be
steady to slightly higher for fine
grades, but steady to weak for low
grades. Supplies of top grades will
decline rather rapidly as total pro-
duction drops and hot weather de-
fects increase. Government buying
of dried eggs will help to support
prices for medium and low grades.
Although prices for better grades
probably will improve during the
summer, they will remain much
lower than last year and returns
over feed cost will be small.
BEANS-Steady to somewhat
higher prices are probable during
the rest of the season. Most of the
remaining supply is now held by the
government and cannot be sold for
less than percent over the cur
rent support price plus reasonable
handling charges. Growers and
shippers have only small free"
stocks.
However, consumption will fall
with arrival of warm weather and,
unless new crop prospects are quite
unfavorable, distributors and cam
ners will continue to buy only for
nearby needs; hence, price gains
probably will be slow. u. S. 1 Pintos

City Takes Health Bldg.

The City of Kodiak assumed the responsibility of maintain ! ing the building ,now used as an office and Community Health Center Monday night.
 The council approved the signing of a Use Permit, with the Alaska Native Service, whereby all costs of operation will be borne by the city and deducted from the $500 that has been contributed yearly to the operation of the service. A tentative agreement was reached two weeks ago during the vist of Dr.. Robert l..
 Smith, Department of Health chief in Anchorage, and Miss
 Florence Eby, assistant dlrec- tor of public nurses.
 By a suspension of the rule, whereby the first reading is considered the second, an ordinance raising the rates on sewer users was approved by council. The new rate is effec- tive as of January 1. An addi- tional 50 cents per unit per month will be added to all bills.
 An ordinance requiring all dwellings receiving garbage collection service to purchase cans that conform to the ordi- nance will be enforced, the council decided.
 The Coast Guard Cutter Cedar will be asked to use the water system at MOB when ever it comes to port. The cur rent water supply for town is
 too low to supply the vessel, a
 councilman declared.
 Ole Olsen appeared before 1 the council to protest the lit- l tered condition of Katmai al-
 ey. He declared that empty i oil drums, boxes, and piles of
 tar paper were a constant source of danger to anyone
 walking along the alley. The
 council agreeded to look into
 the situation.
 The following taxi permits were renewed: Fred Hamilton, L. w. Kreiner, Harold Pratt, Fred Alexander, Henry Haag,
 Harold A. Jonas, Blinn and Nelson, and Harold Smead. John A. Gibbons received a for-hire truck license, and the
 Kodiak Shopper a for-hire li- cense. The council also paid
