Extremely dry conditions pre-
vailed until mid-November,
which permitted heavy fall
grazing of ranges and pastures
of the state, according to the
December l range and livestock
report of the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics, Department
of Agriculture, Helena.
Grasses had become extreme
ly dry, dusty and unpalatable.
The mid-month snow and ad-
ditional snow near the months
end halted grazing in the high
mountain valleys, the south
western part of the state and
in local areas of central Mon
tana. Elsewhere, the light snow
was welcomed as it softened the
grass and provided additional
stock water.
Snow depths continue to
range from 3 to 8 inches in
the heavy snowfall areas. Very
little snow fell or remains in
the eastern third of the state
and along the Canadian Dor
der. Supplemental feeding of
hay and proteinS were started
in mid-November in the south
western section and in many
sections of central and eastern
portions where ranges were
short from the summers
drought.
Sub-zero temperatures the
past two weeks required some
additional feeding to maintain
/! livestock.
Forage supplies appear ade-
uuate except in central and
| eastern localities where a long
| winter season could cause some
serious hardshipS. There is some
surplus hay reported in south
western and a few central
areas.
Recent snow has provided
water for stock, but low tenn
p~eratures have frozen over
many of the small streams,
creeks and reservoirs.
Cattle and calves have come
through the recent cold spell
with a minimum of shrinkage.
Some heavy Shrinkage was not
ed in the southwestern portion
from the extremely low tenn
p%eratureS and in some central
and eastern areas where cattle
were not in top shape because

to be quite heavy during De-

four teaspoons of baking powder
and one teaspoon Of salt. Cut in

Sistency of coarse cornmeal, add

AS for your younger son, Mrs.

question is whether he is capable

he shouldn't be allowed to drive at

drivers at all, making Is the

What traffic authorities call

for scores Of horrible accidents
every year. Parents simply must
ask themselves whether their chill

and act accordingly.
Also. Mrs. u. if the younger boy

Summer
Clothes
By AnqeIo Potri

The direct sunshine on a child's
sensitive skin is likely to burn it
severely. Such burns are painful
and they are not good for the
skin. so We must be careful about
exposing the children too much,
and too soon, to the full force
OF sunshine. In moderation it is
good; in excess, dangerous.
The best way to avoid trouble
while gaining the most benefit in
this matter of sunshine is to make
gradual changes in the clothing
the child uses from day to day.
Feet and legs should be exposed
f1rst-for a short time, not until
they are deep red. Gradually
increase the time of exposure
until the legs and arms are tanned
a bit, then begin lowering the
neckline of the skirt or blouse.
The child's body Is covered COM
pletely during the greater part
of the year making it more SEN
sitive to exposure than are the
legs and arms; therefore we 60
slowly about removing the Gus
tomary clothing.
Even after q child's skin has
been conditioned to air and sun
shine We are careful to see that
on the very hot days, when the
sunshine blisters the asphalt,
that the little ones are not over
exposed to it. Children can be
made very uncomfortable, even
i'll, by that experience.
The long days of summer are
trying on little children. The light
wakens them early, the long twi-
light keeps them awake longer
than usual. Always active, these
are likely to become
overtired in the long day. If they
can be persuaded to take a nap.
that is just the thing to do. If
they refuse the nap then we must
see that they have rest period
sufficiently long to guard them
against fatigue.
It Is possible for little children
to play so long and so hard that
their nerves cease to register
fatigue, being too fatigued to do
so, and the children will protest
against resting. I'm not tired,
I'm not sleepy" they say. 1t is
best to maintain the rest sched-
ule, especially during the long
summer days. Dress the children
as lightly as possible, guard them
against their inclination to over
do and so keep them in good
form and sound health.

Mrs. c. E.; Before answering
your inquiry. I checked and
find that a medium-size box of
detergent takes care of our
laundry for about three weeks.
You mentioned using new
wringer-type washer. which is
what I have also. In my opinion
there is much to be said for a
wringer from the standpoint of
economy in washing compounds
and also for efficient classif1ca-
ton of laundry. I do all of
ours at one time for q family
Of four. BY starting with a
load of white items, such as
shirts. towels. napkins. etc., then
a load Of sheets, working down
through colored things to dun
garees and cotton bathroom rugs.
the whole job can be done really
well with one good suds-no
waiting to run cycle or empty
the tub each time. I use two
wringers. The laundry is fin
ished in an hour and looks as
clean as you could wish.
