FOOTBALL FANS who hadn't

FOOTBALL FANS who hadn't
forgotten the University Of Mi

cause it had a Negro player

Negro players on its varsity team.
Not only did the boys play, but
one, fleet-footed Bernie Bennett

If there were any bigots, die

of being ridiculed into shame.

Song Of the Lazy Farmer

folks who cry with pain at ev'ry
little springtime rain, would
prob'ly also be the first to moan
if ground and plants should thirst;
and if spring flowers didn't bloom,
they'd plunge the deepest into
gloom; they'd boiler loudest bout
the dust and say it absolutely
must cloud up and rain to beat
the band or we can't even plow
our land.
But farming problems are not
my main worry bout spring
that's dry; there's other things
upset me more when rain don't
splash or thunder roar. For one
thing, I can sleep more sound
whenever I hear raindrops pound
upon the roof and window pane,
cause there's no lullaby like rain.
And when the day is overcast,
there amt no jobs to be done
fast; there's time to spend upon
the porch without fear that my
wife will scorch me cause the
field work isn't done; there isn't
anything more fun than ist'ning
to the raindrops say, s'You do not
have to work today"

ONE THOUSAND EWES without
hay, herders or lambers sounds like
distress call, but it's not. The sheep
are happy, and everything is under
control.
For the last 10 years have ham
died about this number of ewes in
this fashion with good success. In
fact, if had not done it this way
! would have gone out of the sheep
business along with nearly everyone
else.
There is nothing complicated about
it except that it took a little nerve
at first. I raise wheat and barley
at about one acre of grain for each
sheep wintered and bunch all my
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-04-15

straw behind a 20-foot
combine. This means
the straw piles are big
enough to find under
16 inches of snow, yet
not so large that the
sheep foul up and
waste much, if any.

tive grass for addi-
tionaI roughage but

Hybrid Sunflowers Seen
as New Oil Crop

THAT OVERGROWN 'sBlack-eyed
Susan" with the bright yellow petals,
the sunflower, may again soon be
winking from cultivated farm fields
in some parts of Montana as it was
in few areas back in the EOS.
This possibility is suggested by re-
ports from North Dakota where acre
ages of hybrid sunflower seed pro-
duction have more than tripled in
the last three years.
Only this time, the sunflowers
won't be grown just as livestock fod-
der or winter chicken feed. The new
est angle is seed production to pro-
cess for high quality vegetable oil
and the byproduct oil meal, which
is a good protein supplement for
livestock feeding.
North Dakota Report
This information comes from re-
port on sunflower production in
North Dakota by T. E. Stoa, agron-.
omist at the State college experiment
station, Fargo. He says farm plant
ings in North Dakota have increased
from 5000 to about $4,000 acres in
the last three years. Success of the
crop gives the farmer another inter

No Hay, Herders, Lambers
1000 Ewes
By Y. NJ. LONG, Fergus County

given up trying to use a gut-wagon
of any kind. In the small pasture the
ewes stay right where their lambs
are born, which is the natural way.
Ewes are less afraid of a man on
horseback than on foot and, if prop
erly tagged previously, very seldom
need any help with their lambs.
When evening comes, or on the ap-
proach of bad weather, / ride around
to the various pastures, and if the
lamb has not learned to follow his
mother into shelter, use special
lamb carrier have made of 1a-inch
rod and fastened to an old broom
handle.
I reach down from the horse and
scoop up the lamb with the carrier,
making sure have one side of the
carrier rod between his front legs so
he cannot wriggle out. Then ride
slowly toward the brush, holding
the lamb just few inches off the
ground The eve follows eagerly and
unafraid, usually never suspecting
man is anywhere around. I have
often moved a eve and her lamb
this way over mile without excite
ment, which is always bad.
Losses Small
Sure, some lambs die, perhaps a
few more than if full Landing crew
were on hand, but some will die any,
way and the additional neglected
loss would not pay tenth of the
lambers' wages.
urge young men especially to go
into the sheep business if they are
just starting out on a wheat ranch
and cash is little short. Nothing
will go to waste on fenced wheat
ranch if sheep are on hand to pick
every last head of down grain.
Start with not less than so nor
more than 100 if you are a green
hand. Get old ewes not wanted by
a larger operator yet plenty good
for an average of 11z lambs or more.
You will make at least 100 percent
on your investment the first year
and more likely $50 percent now that
sheep are high if you give them a
little extra care. That is more than
is possible with cattle and every
wheat man needs livestock reserve
of some kind, especially now that
SURPRISES are again in prospect.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-04-15

often not. This year it has been
''not' because of the dry fall.
Barley or Protein Cake
have fed from " to 1 pound of
barley per head when barley was
cheaper. The last few years / have
sold barley and bought high protein
cake and saved money, since "a
pound of cake per head daily is
enough.
I feed mixture of barley and
cake at first in the fall to teach the
lambs to eat the cake. Start with not
over a half feed and don't count the
lambs as eating any cake at first.
The mixture is put out on firm, ma
tive sod IN about 1s-gallon piles
placed 10 or Is feet each way. hold
the sheep back several rods from the
feeding ground until the feed is put
out, then go in front of them until
near the feed and all the tail-enders
have caught up and move them onto
the feed in a compact bunch-this is
important, or has been.
Self Feeders Would Be Good
like the newer idea of self-feed-
ing concentrates using salt as a di-
luting agent to prevent overeating.
I haven't tried it yet, but it seems
they have used this method in Texas
a number of years with success. If
this idea works it would forever put
an end to the problem of getting the
weaker ones fair chance at the con-
centrates. The proportion Texas
ranchers use is l pound of salt to 5
pounds of cake in meal form.
No lambers? It's easy if you lamb
entirely on grass. Start May l and
cut the band up in small punches of
about 100 to a brush sheltered pas
ture large enough to run them about
one month. Too large a pasture is
bad.
dock the small punches separate
1y about the third week, as most of
the lambs will have been born by
that time. I hold the punches sepa-
rately as long as can before shear
ing about July 5. Yes, it takes quite
a lot of woven wire fence but fenc-
ing is cheaper and more efficient
than most hired help and much more
dependable from year to year.
Lamb on Horseback
I do most of the 1ambing work OF
horseback, using small, very gentl,
old COW pony. I use him to catcl
ewes with an ordinary sheep hook
as he will trail them, but this is yer,
seldom necessary except in the us
of Landing tents sometimes. I hav

seed for any farmers interested
at about SO cents per pound. The
straight Sunrise variety sunflow-
er seed is available at about rs
cents per pound but Is consid-
cred definitely inferior 10 the
hYbrids.
Growing Conditions
Excerpts from the report by Stoa
follow:
''The crop may be grown on most
types of soil but yields will be best
when planted on the more fertile,
medium heavy soils, and where there
is fair moisture reserve. :. SUM-
flowers will withstand drouth to a
fair degree but will yield best when
there is sufficient and a favorable
distribution of the summer rainfall.
Good soil drainage is necessary. -.
Cultivate to keep weeds in check.
Preparation of the seed bed is
much the same as for corn i. :. drilled
in rows, spaced from SO to AZ inches
apart. :. Rate of seeding, about
to pounds per acre, dropped from
to 8 inches apart in the row. Most
grain drills can be used for planting
by covering feed cups for desired
spacing :. corn planters with prop
er plates may be used also. Care must
be taken to not crack or injure the
seed. Sunflowers can be planted
somewhat earlier than corn, or from
early to fairly late May in the North
Dakota area.
Yields
"Sunf1ower yields will vary great
1y and may range from 200 to 1000
pounds seed per acre, depending
upon the seed bed and condition
under which grown. A good aver
age yield will approximate 800 to
1000 pounds per acre.
Harvesting
'Sunflowers can be harvested best
by straight combining. The seed is
considered ripe when the heads are
yellow, the outer flower bracts are
turning brown and the seed is hard,
usually from early to midSeptember.
However, another two or three weeks
must be allowed for the stalks and
pithy heads to dry, SO that the har-
vested seed may be safely stored.
A good frost after the seed is mature,
followed by warmer weather, will
hasten the drying-out process.
