YOUR HENS RAN Low
ON VITAMIN A
By II. E. CUSHMAN

O. Can you tell me what is wrong

that il sounded like deep snore

or diarrhea. lost weight and just sat
around till they finally died. So far
have lost four.
They laid well all winter and
suddenly just quit. My usual feed
ing consists of ground barley soaked
in milk or water. also feed oats
and wheat for whole grain.
Is there q medicine could give
them? They had fresh wafer before
them all the time. warm water in
cold weather.-Mrs. F. j. Hill
County.
A. / do not think that you have
any disease present. Nor do you need
to give them any medicine. Your
trouble, without a doubt, is a vitamin
"A deficiency. If your birds were
running out Of doors last summer
and fall they probably stored quite
a bit of vitamin A in their bodies,
enough to keep them healthy until
you had this break in production and
the beginning of the respiratory
trouble It is typical symptom of =
vitamin A deficiency.
Furthermore your ration contains
no vitamin A. The skim milk is
good source Of protein if you give
enough of it. But the vitamin A goes
into the cream. The grains contain
no vitamin A. Most of your CONNER
cial mashess provide vitamin A
through cod liver or other guaran-
teed fish oils and through alfalfa leaf
meal. Don't give whole milk, even if
you could afford it; the fat content
is too high. It would most likely give
the birds jaundice.
If you provide vitamin A through
cod liver oil you can add about a
couple of tablespoonful to each
quart of milk which you use to soak
i your barley Be sure that you are
giving about gallons of milk pei

which editors wear when they
must wait for stuff from me that's

Christmas gift would give those
boys a bigger lift than having a
three-months supply Of copy all
set and laid by; besides, I'm get
ting mighty tired of fearing that
I might get fired.
So collected pen and ink and
sat right down to try and think
Of half a dozen songs or more at
which the customers might roar.
/ hadn't more than just begun
when neighbor showed up on the
run: sQuick, grab your gum" I
heard him shout, there's pleas
ants thick as all get out!" Two
days of hunting, maturity, re-
quired that I rest up for three; by
that time it had showed a bit and
rabbits could be tracked and hit.
And so two weeks have slipped

this rhyme will reach the printer

Wheat in Japan Is
S57 Yen Per BIZ.

SENDAl, JAPAN (Speclal TO Mon
tana Farmer Stockmanl They
wouldn't be met with much en-
thusiasm in Montana but primitive
wheat farming methods used in
Japan seem to do the job over here.
That was the comment of Mon
tana youth after a tour of one of
Japan's wheat growing district dur
ing this years harvest.
''The japanese are quite up-to-
date in some. of their manufacture
ing processes but they're still farm
ing the hard way" said Cpl. Ray
mond S. Smith, former Billings man
now serving with the 10th infantry
division near Sendai, in northern
Honshu.
'The average wheat grower
doesn't have over five acres of land
and quite often not even that
much" explained Smith. "He plants
it by hand, cuts it by hand, and
usually threshes it by pounding the
ripe bundles with a club-or even
a beer bottle
Although rice is Japan's staple
crop, wheat still accounts for about
10 percent of the 12,5OO,OOO acres of
land under cultivation. In Miyagi
prefecture, heart of northern Hon
shu's wheat belt where Smith is
stationed, over 10000 acres were in
wheat this season, most of it North
ern No. II.
'aThat's the kind that thrives the
best in this SOIL" Smith was told by
Kikuzo Suzuki, head of the pre-
lectures largest flour mill.
They're also planting some white.
large-grain Australian wheat on an
experimental basis, Suzuki ex-
planned. Hard red winter wheat
doesn't do so well, he added.
Last years crop in Miyag!
amounted to $4,000 bushels while
rice production was 10,500,O00 bush
els from 100000 acres.
Average price paid the farmer fol
the last wheat crop was 857 yen PEI
bushel, or about $235.
Smith lived in Billings before hi
induction into the army just on,
year ago. He was graduated from
Billings high school.in 1916 and fin
ished Billings Business college il
1913. His father. Paul Smith, is
Billings seed buyer.

Farm and Ranch EXPERIENCES
Sprinkler Ideal
For Shallow Soil
By HOWARD w. RAMBO
Lincoln County

y
MY GROUND is uneven and be-
cause the top soil is shallow, leveling
would be impractical. Also, due to
the lay of the land, there are several
acres which could never be reached
by bitches and gravity irrigation.
Because the top soil is shallow,
gravity irrigation would leach what
soil do have.
With my sprinkler system, raised
a fair crop of oats and barley on
new soil in a corner of my land
which could not possibly be reached
by gravity irrigation. / might add
that due to dry spring, the ground
was dry as powder when I seeded
and without sprinkling, I doubt that
the seed would have sprouted, let
alone grow and raise a crop.
My alfalfa ground is pretty well
run down, but did get two cuttings
last year, which would never have
been able to do without sprinkling,
especially since there was prac-
tically no rain fall in this section
during the growing season. was
also impressed by the amount Of
hay that grew on high sandy and
gravelly .knolls. These plants would
have surely failed to mature in last
years drought and heat without
water which could not have been
supplied by gravity irrigation.
have noticed in discussions of
sprinkler irrigation that the main
objection is to the high cost Of in
stallation. In my case, / feel that
this cost is offset by the increased
yield, and the utilization of acres
otherwise wasted by bitches and
ground too high to be reached by
gravity irrigation.
Before buying my outfit I did
considerable shopping around and
found large variety of coup1ers and
sprinkler heads. From my exper-
fence, I would certainly advise any.
one considering the purchase of {
sprinkler system to investigate thor.
oughly the advantages and disad
vantages of every kind.
There are several points to con
slider, such as the time needed to as
semble and disassemble from a poin

With my system, can carry 40 fee
of pipe by myself and couple it from
the center, standing 20 feet from th
joint. This saves me one quarter O
mile Of walking in changing

Other points to consider are tn
flexibility and strength of joint,
the durability and construction (
