County Fair In Balance As
Board Adopts Resolution
$4,000 Needed By
Jan. II For Debts

The Madison County Fair
Board resolves that unless supple
mental financial conditions and
other existing circumstances arc
cleared up by Tuesday, January
II, 1855, plans for the 1855 fair
be cancelled"
This resolution was the culmina-
tion of the Fair Board meeting
held here last Wednesday. All
members of the board present
answered i'm the affirmative for
the adoption of the resolution
The meeting began with the ten
dering of the designations OF the
secretary, Robert Hines, and the
president. John Sanford. Both men
gave as their reasons outside i'm
fluence brought 10 bear on the
board and politics played in the
appropriation Of funds they claim
are due the board from the County
Commissioners. The designations
we're tabled by the remainder of
the board.
The financial condition of the
fair operation led the board TO
request levy from the voters last
November. This request was the
only one Of ten to be denied. AS
result. the operation ended with
approximately $4,000 deficit for
1854, as in 1853.
1t is said to be within the pow
er of the county commissioners TO
advance money from the general
fund TO pay this deficit. but they
have allegedly refused TO do so
without an audit OF the books.
Secretary Bob Hines says the
books are ready for audit and in
spcction. Crux of the trouble IS
repeatedly the salary of the sec
retary. established for the past
year by the board at $500. To
date, the secretary has not receiv-
cd this salary, saying. II felt that
While the society was so much in
arrears it would be unfair for me
to pay myself.
Hines further stated that we
are jeopardizing the future of the
farm kids in the community by
playing politics, referring to the
great interest in the fair by the
All and other farm groups.
Sanford also objected to poll
tics" in the operation of the board
and included his objection in his
resignation.
The board explained that com
mitments for fair concessions must
be made early i'm the year, and
that the outstanding debts would
put them at a disadvantage i'm
bidding for these concessions at a
conference to be held in the near
future. People won't back us if
they can't get their money" they
said.
The county commissioners are
SAID TO have agreed to advance
some $1,000 for expenses b,t
balk at the larger figure. Only one
OF their number was present AT
the meeting, Rodney Plymell, but
nc did not claim to speak for nor
to hold the same opinion of the
others, Rodger Baker and George
Taylor.

WATER
SUPPLY MEANS
ADDED PROFIT

Since water is the cheapest
"feed" that you can buy, a well
planned water system that pro-
vides a continuous supply for live
stock and poultry is a profitable
investment.
For example, tests made in Iowa
show that dairy COWS having a
continuous supply drank Is per-
cent more water, produced $50
more milk and 1919 more but
terfat than COWS given all the wat
er they could drink twice a day.
And in Nebraska tests with self
watered pigs showed that they
gained II pounds more per day
and required "a pounds less feed
per 100 pounds gain than hand
watered pigs.
In Illinois tests, high producing
hens drank more water than low
producers. Birds laying 179 eggs
per year drank 100 pounds of
water, those laying 216 eggs per
year drank 155 pounds of water
and birds with an annual produc-
ton of 234 eggs drank 178 pounds
of water.
Water is essential to the eff
cient conversion of feed into meat,
milk and eggs.

falfa leaves-16.9 and 57.3; alfalfa
stems - 81 and 40.8.
With this information in mind
some of these losses may at times
be avoided and a better grade of
hay obtained.
If you are interested in pro-
ducing quality hay you might well
consider the following principal
points: /. Sufficient help and
equipment to put up the hay when
conditions are favorable. 2. Cut
hay at the proper time to get the
best quality without undue loss
in tonnage. Time suggested:
Alfalfa - When blossoms first
appear; Red Clover7Just before
full bloom; White Sweet Clover
Shortly before blossoms appear.
Grass Hays = Early in bloom;
Yellow Sweet Clover-When bios
SONS appear; Cereal Grains-In
the dough stage.
Note: When a large acreage is
to be harvested, cutting should
start even earlier to avoid over
mature hay later.
3. Avoid undue bleaching in the
sun by raking when we'll Wilted,
and before the leaves begin to
shatter. 4. BY stacking or baling
when moisture condition will per-
NIT safe storage.

MILKING
CONDITIONS MEANS
HIGH PRODUCTION

Large scale tests being made
at the University Of Minnesota
are revealing some interesting
differences on how completely or
incompletely COWS let down their
milk. The research workers point
out that proper milking and milk
ing-time conditions stimulate a
cow to Secrete a hormone called
oxytocin. This is the hormone
that causes COWS to let down their
milk.
Normally, this hormone is Sc
creted in a small gland near the
cows brain in response to a milk
ing stimulus - that is, udder
massage by a nursing calf, a milk
ing machine or a human mixer.
However, excitement can block
the hormone secretion and result
in a cow giving far less milk than
normally. For this reason any
rough handling of a cow, rushing
her, not feeding her at the usual
time, or unusual noises can cause
the COW to hold her milk back.
Dairymen have long known the
kind and gentle treatment, regu-
larity in feeding and milking, and
massage the cows udder + con-
ducive to better milk production.
Now research bears out that
proper milking and favorable
milking-time conditions have a
scientific basis of fact in getting
high milk production. In fact, the
Minnesota research workers feel
that these are probably bigger fac
tors than inheritance in causing
COWS to dry up early.

CAREERS IN AGRICULTURE
FOR YOUNG MEN
AND WOMEN

In looking ahead to your future
career we would like to call your
attention to the unlimited posi-
bilities in agriculture that are
open to college trained men and
women.
Recent surveys indicate that
eight major fields in agriculture
with more than 500 distinct occu-
pations would and could employ
$4,000 new college graduates each
year - if the graduates were
available. However, the Immigrant
colleges of the country are gradu-
ating only $500 trained persons
each year to fill these demands.
Agricultural research, for ex-
ample, will need $4,000 more
trained scientists by 1860. The
farm equipment industry can use
1000 trained men a year for the
next few years, and enterprises
serving the poultry industry have
20 jobs for every qualified ap-
plicant. Agricultural business
which includes finance, sales and
services and marketing needs 5000
agricultural graduates a year.
And that most important job
of all = farm and ranch opera
ton = needs trained producers as
good management becomes more
essential in reducing operating
costs.
Alert and able teachers in all
fields, including extension. vo-
cational agriculture and colleges
continue to be in demand.
Agriculture offers a bright fu-
ture for the college trained young
man or young woman and Mon
tana State College at Bozeman Of
fers training in all these fields.

tunities in agriculture, write the

SUGGESTIONS ON
HAY MAKING
By Ray Stack and Dean Davidson

HAY MAKING
With the value of livestock pro-
duction and feeding in this area
the Importance of putting up high
quality hay cannot be over en-
phaZised. 1t is fully realized that
the making Of choice hay is often
very difficult if not impossible
some years, due to unfavorable
weather conditions. 1t is impor-
tant, however, to understand that
there is a great difference in the
feeding value of good and poor
hay, and that the production Of
good hay is not an accident.
Several times each haying sea-
son we are asked the question
when is the best time to cut hay.
All experimental evidence points
to the fact that early cut hay is
the best. A few years ago the
Bureau of Dairy Industry at the
Huntley Experimentation test ed
the yield and feeding value of al
falfa cut at three different stages
of maturity during a three year
test period. Alfalfa cut at the
initial bloom, half bloom and full
bloom stages gave the following
results: Crude protein content, mi
tial bloom, 1924; half bloom, 1929,
and full bloom 1911. Crude fiber
content, initial bloom 1886; half
bloom 28.45; full bloom, 1858.
Digestive nutrients produced per
acre, initial bloom, 1850 lbs; half
bloom 4413 lbs; full bloom, 1869
lbs. Average daily consumption
per COW, initial bloom, 1914 lbs;
half bloom, 1916 lbs; full bloom
38. 5 lbs.
The results show that alfalfa
hay cut in the initial and half
bloom stages were markedly SUI
perior in all respects to alfalfa hay
cut at full bloom stage.
Preventing losses in curing hay
is fully as important as cutting hay
at the proper stage of growth. In
practical hay making there are
losses from the bleaching action
VI Vic oQl WHICH OCSL1OJO N4Id-
min A and lowers the palatability
of the hay. Many leaves fall off
if the hay is cut too late or the
hay becomes too dry before it is
raked or punched. Heavy rains
may leach out 80 percent or more
of the nutrients. When hay heats
in the stack, to the extent of
browning, it will lose some food
value through fermentation.
A loss of leaves means that a
high percentage of the best part
of the hay is gone because the
leaves are much higher in pro-
ten than the rest of the plant. The
leaves are also richer in both vi
tamins and minerals. Experiment
station findings shows the percent
of dIgestible protein and total
digestible nutrients respectively
in alfalfa hay-1O.6 and SOB; al
