Gas Company To
Provide More
Space Heating

The waiting lists for winter
heating gas here will probably be
reduced soon, the Cumberland and
Allegany Gas company announced
today.
Prospects Of an easing of re-
strictions were enhanced as the re-
suit of action started by the
Columbia Gas System, Of which
the Cumberland and Allegany Gas
company is a member firm.
r. X. Gilbert, local manager, for
the gas company here, said the
first step was taken yesterday at
hearing before the Ohio Public
Utilities Commission.
Columbia System affiliates oper-
ating in the Buckeye State are re-
questing PUG approval Of plan
to provide gas heating for more
homes there.
At the same time, Columbia
System officials disclosed plans to
take similar action in Maryland
and other states throughout their
service territory.
Improved gas supplies from
loug-distance pipelines out of
Southwestern United States now
enable Columbia System com
panies to take ON additional heat
ing customers, Columbia repre-
scntatives said at the Ohio hear
ings.
The companies originally re-
quested restrictions ON new gas
heating to protect service to exist
ing customers, they said, but
Columbia now has enough addi-
tional gas to supply the proposed
number Of new heating customers.
In Ohio, four gas firms joined in
the request for commission APP
proval on more gas heating. Those
companies, together with the num-
Der Of new installations for which
they seek authorization are:
The Ohio Fuel Gas Company,
.13,772 Natural Gas Company of
West Virginia and The Manufac-
turers Light and Heat Company
in a combined request asking for
total to cover both companies,
lisp; and the United Fuel Gas
Company, us. These figures are
for Ohio customers only.
In Pennsylvania, The Manufac-
tmers Light and Heat Company
plans to notify the Public Utility
Commission that improved gas
supplies put the company in posi-
ton to take on additional heating
customers and that it will start APP
proving applications soon.
The Cumberland and Allegany
Gas company will take the same
action with Public Service Com
mission Of Maryland.

Good Pasture Still Cheapest
Source Of Dairy Feed

Pasture produces nutrients at about
500 of the cost of hay and about one
third the cost of grain. So dairy studies
at the Huntly Experiment Station,
Montana, reveal.
OF course, it takes good, high yielding
pasture the kind you get with the
Westland Brand Pasture Mixture that's
specially blended for dairy cattle and
tailored to your growing conditions.
Only the finest available seed is used
clean, high terminating and Arasan-
treated. Each mixture is properly bal
anced to reduce the hazard of bloat. So
ask your local Northrup King dealer for
the WestIand Brand Pasture Mixture
that suits your needs.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-04-01

MANY DAIRY FARMERS find it profitable
to divide their pastures into quite a few
small strips. Then the cows can be turned
into new strip every two or three days.
The fresher the feed, the higher the gains.
ROTATION GRAZING at frequent intervals
often does away with moving the pasture
to control old, tough plants. The animals
will keep the growth at a pretty even level

valuable new vurieties

Every year sees the introduction of

Some give heavier yields, some are bet

on these new plants and to try those
that look good to you.

ALLoWPAsTUREs TO GROW 8 to 10 inches
high in the spring before turning your

Among the new varieties that have
proved their worth through repeated
