The
 G.ad&e Roe9es
By Mildred Kirkpatrick

The community of Kenai is doing an admirable thing in, shouldering their share in the development of the Kenai Pen insula. They have undertaken festival which is no small project.
 Development of the Peninsula depends upon the activities of the communities now in exist ence in the area, and upon the cooperation and good will with in each community for the others.
 Seward started the ball roll ing this year with the Potlatch in February. Homer and Kenai turned out in bitter weather to attend the Potlatch. Now they are in turn inviting Sew ard to Kenai to the Fall Fes- tival and to the Homer Fair later in the month.
 One trip down Fourth Ave- nue during the day, any day of the week, is a revelation of these days. The number of cars parked along the curb is amaz- ing. If only one half of those cars are driven to Kenai this weekend it will greatly encour- age the hard working people of that village and create a friend ly feeling for Seward.
 If only one dozen Sewardites participate in their bazaar by sending exhibits or contribu- tions for sale, it will help the Kenai cause immeasurably.
 They have community li- brary in Kenai that is remark able in it's size and scope. They were encouraged and assisted by Mrs. Ray James of Seward in their project Now they are on their own, and they have not laid down on the job, but are planning to increase library benefits through the festival Let's help them.
 Kenai also can boast of a civic center, two nice little churches and a beautiful new school building. It is a growing com munity, and one to be reckoned with in the future of Kenai Pen insula. We want their friend ship and their business, their | good will and their company. The only way to foster these intangibles is to offer our own congratulations IN PERSON.

Tips for School Going Veterans

A roundup of G.I. Bill rules and regulations has been issued by the Veterans Administration to help veterans plan ahead for their school terms this fall. The VA stressed that now is the time veterans should do their planning, because several weeks sometimes are required to get preliminaries out of the way.
 Veterans who intend to go ahead this fall with the same course at school they have pre- viously attended need not con- tact the VA at all. They should, however, make certa ain the school has room for them.
 Those who want to continue in the same course but at diff ferent school should obtain a supplemental Certificate of Eli gibility from the VA. On the certificate, they must name the school and course. Then, at the time of enrolment, they present the certificate to the school.
 Veterans who wish to make their first change from one gen. eral field of study to another (from law to engineering, for example) may do so simply by applying for supplemental certificate.
 Veterans who already have changed general fields of study under the G.I. Bill and now wish to change again should ap- py to the VA. They may be re quired to undergo advisement and guidance to determine Whe- ther they are in need of the course and have the aptitude necessary to complete the train ing
 Veterans who have not yet trained under the G.I. Bill, and plan to start this fall, should apply at the nearest VA office for an original Certificate of Eligibility. The name of the school and course must be in cluded in the application and the application, together with pho. tostatic copy of discharge papers, should be sent to the nearest VA regional office. After veter ans receive their certificate, they should keep it until they actually enroll.

THE CAST:

If the motion picture industry is
going to make good on its slogan
which boasts that the movies are
better than ever, they're going to
have to renounce a long held
theory that if one picture does
well, a sequel is almost a necessity.
The case in point is "My Friend
Irma Goes West" at the Palace.
This dull saga of a girl who just
couldn't be that dumb, will, un-
fortunately, probably turn out to
be just the second edition of a
long series of "Irmas.'
Not even Jerry Lewis, who turns
out some pretty commendable
comedy most of the time, is enough
to save this tale of missed trains,
insane producers and crooked
gamblers.
Marie Wilson, who was saved
from what appeared to be a career
in Ken Murray's ''Blackouts" by
the Irma series. does such scream
ingly funny things as eating a
banana skin instead of the banana,
pulling a plant out by it's roots
to water it, and cooking canned
goods with the cans still around
them.
This time, Irma and her friends
start for Hollywood so Steve Laird,
played Dean Martin, can take
what turns out to be a non-existent
job in pictures. They get as far
as Las Vegas, where John Lund,
who tries too hard to make some
thing out of nothing in the part
of AL, gets mixed up with crooked
gamblers. Before it is over, Irma
is nearly murdered, but rescue
comes too soon.
A chimpanzee is excellent in the
part of chimpanzee, and Diana
Lynn, who certainly could be used
to better advantage. makes out like
she just loves to play the part of
Irma's foil. w. E. C.

(might as well face facts and ad-
NIT everything) ask. Just let
Metro put our girl in a bathing
suit in couple of sequences and
we're happy. If Metro wants to
go beyond this and establish some
reason for the bathing suit by
tossing Esther in the pool, that
is all right, too. In or out of the
water she is a graceful and inspir-
ing sight.
Sitting in an air-cooled theater
looking at her is a pleasant sum-
mertime pastime. A man could
occupy his time in a lot of worse
ways.
The plot which expends the tai
ents of Miss Williams and the
others-to get that out of the
way in hurry-is a simple mind
ed fable about a Chicago playboy
who has his secretary impersonate
his f1ancee whenever it becomes
strategically sensible to become
disentangled from a dame. This
hurts the secretary because she
is madly in love with him, it says
here in as unlikely a proposition
as ever removed film completely
from reality.
Miss Williams, who is the Sec
retary's roommate, pursues the
playboy to Sun Valley in the hope
that he will become entangled
with her and then want to be-
come Observation-Disclosures likely
proposition-and send for his Sec
retary and fall in love with her.
While she, Miss Williams, is push
ing this project along, she herself
becomes involved with band
leader who can't make much sense
out of what is going on, which
certainly is no discredit to him.

1t is inevitable, perhaps, that
80 Years Before Your Eyes" will
be compared with THE Golden
Twenties," which preceded it to
town. The new film lacks the focus
of the March of Time compilation
but at the same time it is more
satisfying in other respects for
covering more territory. 1t opens
at the turn of the century, with
Teddy Roosevelt in the White

King George and Germany's Kai-
ser Wilhelm were seen riding side
by side behind the caisson bearing
Queen Victoria, and it comes right
down to yesterday if not quite to
today.

MOUNTAINS 100000 ACRES of
irrigated wild hay land usually pro-
duces only about one ton of hay to
the acre. Much of this area is in
mountain meadows and is used to
produce hay for winter feeding of
livestock which Craze during the
summer on adjacent mountain
ranges. The largest continuous area
of mountain meadows in the state
is the valley of the Big Hole river
in Beaverhead county.
The Montana Agricultural Expert
ment station and the Montana Ex-
tension service have been studying
the factors responsible for the low
yields there the last two years. In
1949 two small fertilizer tests were
placed on the ranch of Fred Nelson
near Jackson. Without treatment
the area produced about liz tons
of hay to the acre. Yields on some
of the treated plots went as high
as 31s tons per acre.

serious roundworm infections. If an
area or pasture is not grazed more
than week or 10 days. there will
be practically no spread of worms
from one sheep to another.
When the same area is not grazed
for month the majority of the
worm larvae will die. In farm flocks
on limited pasture this may be ac-
complished by cross fencing to pro-
vide three or four smaller pastures.
Where pasture or range rotation
is not feasible and if experience
shows that the lambs become para
sitized in spite of all precautions,
then the use of phenothiazine and
salt mixture is advisable as pre-
ventive measure.
A mixture of 10 pounds of pheno-
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-01-01

thiazine and 80 pounds of salt should
be kept available for the sheep from
the beginning of Landing until the
lambs are weaned. The salt troughs
should be sheltered to prevent de-
composition of the phenothiazine.
Medication appears to be the only
way to fight worms once they are
in the lambs and ewes, DR.. Seghetti
says. Phenothiazine tetrachlorethy-
lene and mixture of copper sulph-
ate and nicotine sulphate are quite
effective against roundworms. Lead
arsenate and the combination of
copper sulphate and nicotine sui
phate are recommended for tape
worm.
Detailed information about the
dosage of these chemicals may be

final Worms in Sheep" which may

calf butchered at the first sign of
trouble, and salvage what they can
from the carcass, and this is all right
too, for the calf was destined to
make meat anyway, and until the
bladder has ruptured, the meat is
perfectly wholesome and can be
used.
AS to the cause of all this, nobody
has. the answer. There is more than
a little evidence that a deficiency
of vitamin A may have something
to do with it. Vitamin A, in grass
and in hay, can be roughly meas
xred by the green color. Hay that
k-Ps been stacked for two years has
Ssst practically all of its vitamin A,
and hay that has been wet and
turned over and is badly bleached
before stacking or baling may be
very low in this important vitamin.
vitannin A Deficiency?
Right now at the research labora-
tory at the experiment station, we
are feeding bunch of calves on hay
that is low in vitamin A, making
regular blood tests to determine how
low the vitamin A level in the blood
has become to see if urinary calcui
can be artificially produced. If we
can develop water-belly cases among
the calves fed this deficient ration
and no cases show up among the
calves fed a normal ration, then
maybe we will have a valuable line
to follow up.
We urge cattlemen that have calf
losses from this source to write us
all the details of this falls feeding
and handling of the calves, espe-
cially as to the quality of pasture.
The more definite information we
can get as to the background in
these cases, the more progress we
can make in shaping up these ex-
periments. And without feeding ex-
periments, trying out this and that
it is not likely that we can deter
mine the cause.

Biggest Increase From Nitrogen

Biggest Increase From Nitrogen
The greatest increases were Sc
cured from the use of commercial
nitrogen fertilizer, but phosphate in
creased yields somewhat when used
with nitrogen. The yields from most
of the plots receiving fertilizer were
satisfactory but the problems is only
partly solved.
Hay in this area frequently sells
for about So per ton but the cost OF
the fertilizer for the most economic
yield in the experiment, increased
the cost to $3.50 per ton of hay.
1t should be pointed out that this
was the first attempt to study rates
and methods of fertilizer applica-
ton and was designed more to guide
future studies than to give final
answers. 1t is consequently probable
the further study will indicate
methods of reducing the cost of
fertilizer per ton of hay.
Additional tests may be run in
1850. Different methods of applying
fertilizer, new grasses or different
methods of irrigation may bring in
creased yields without adding too
much to the cost.
The use of ammonia gas which
can be inserted into the irrigation
water and distributed with it, usual
ly reduces the cost of nitrogen
fertilizer to at least one-half the
cost of solid materials as used in
previous tests. However, this method
of application requires close control
of water and cannot be used with
the current Big Hole methods or
irrigation.
Alternate methods of irrigation
may offer possibilities of using q
cheap form of nitrogen fertilizer but
they must also be so devised that
the cost of irrigation remains low,
Change of Irrigation Methods
Fertilizers are only one of the
possible attacks on this problem
These Big Hole areas are mostly ir-
rigated by continuous free flood
ing system which keeps the soil
wet and cold during the season in
which the plants make their most
active growth. This apparently does
not allow sufficient of the soa
nitrogen to be liberated to encourage
the desired vigorous growth.
Possibly systems of irrigation
could be devised which would meet
the need of mountain meadow areas

Control Of Worms In Sheep
Range Rotation, Phen0 Treatment Effective

ALTHOUGH VISIBLE symptoms
of worms in sheep are rare on Mon
tana ranges, under certain condi-
tons these parasites frequently be-
come troublesome, according to DR..
Lee Seghetti of the Montana State
college veterinary research labora-
tory.
There is one species of stomach
worms and three species of intes-
final worms that frequently cause
trouble in Montana. Except for
tapeworms, the worms are very
small and might be overlooked in an
ordinary postmortem.
Visible symptoms develop most
quickly when sheep are confined to
a limited range or are closely grazed
on irrigated pastures during the
summer months, the veterinarian
explains. This is particularly true
of lambs.
Symptoms in Lambs
Symptoms for roundworms and
tapeworns are similar. The affected
lambs show lack of bloom of the
wool, loss of weight, persistent
securing and fail to grow properly.
In ewes the symptoms are similar
but less pronounced.
When ewes or lambs show these
symptoms it is advisable to have a
careful diagnosis made. A limited
amount of diagnosing can be done
for sheepmen by the veterinary re-
search laboratory at the college.
This can be done if sheepmen will
collect about a tablespoonful of
fresh feces from each of number of
affected sheep. These should be
placed in individual containers and
shipped Immediately to the labora-
tory.
Sheepmen can do numbers of
things to control intestinal worms
DR.. Seghetti says. Since the symp-
toms are less noticeable in thrifty
sheep it is important at lambing time
to have the ewes in the best pos
sible condition. This also means
keeping them on the best range
while nursing lambs.
