101 =JC 0 Q ID J Montana Wins Awards At Portland Stock Show In spite of the stiftest competition ever experienced and with two of Mon tana's herds showing for the first time, Montana prominent livestock breeders brought home four grand champions, three reserve champions, 23 firsts, 20 seconds. 14 thirds and a total of 90 ribbons from the Pacific International Livestock Exposition at Portland. Three of these Montana herds went from Portland to the Kansas City Royal show and to the Chicago International exhibit, where they expect to make even a better showing for Montana. At Chi cago they will be met by the Montana delegation of stockmen, farmers and business men who will leave Nov. 26 on the "Treasure State Stock Show Special Train" over the Northern Pacific rail way. Cook's Grand Champion A. B. Cook's famous herd of Hereford cattle from Townsend won the senior grand champion female ribbon at Port land with Zool Panana, 14th, a two-year old heifer. Firsts in the aged herd, group of two females, group of three fat steers, aged bull, junior bull calf, aged cow, two-year-old cow, summer yearling heifer, and Junior calf went to this herd in addi tion to seven second places and two thirds. Mr. Cook's herd is said this year to be one of the best he has had on the circuit. The Herd of Shorthorns owned by Child and Anceny from Gallatin Gate way, neary Bozeman, won the junior champion female, reserve grand cham Treat Colds àazways ^^9With One Treatment RUBBED on throat and chest, Vicks does two things at once: (1) It is vaporized by the body heat and inhaled direct to the in flamed air passages, and (2) It stimulates the skin like an old-fashioned poultice and "draw* out" the soreness.

Ex-gov ernor A. C. Schallenberger, prominent Shorthorn breeder, who judged at Port land, is of the opinion that this herd will outclass many eastern show herds. It is expected that the record made at Portland by the Child and Anceny herd will be repeated at the other shows on the circuit. They will show this year at Kansas City and Chicago the first time. Sheep Prizes Many Dr. J. C. Gardiner won rather heavily with his Hampshire sheep from the Mt. Haggin farms near Anaconda. They won champion ram, champion ewe; first in the ram lamb, group of three ram lambs, group of three ewe lambs, breeders flock and get of sire classes; and took five seconds and two third placlngs. Competi tion in this class was very stiff, and the Montana sheep hung up a very good record. Dr. Gardiner will show his Hampshires at Kansas City and at Chicago. In Milking Shorthorns In the milking Shorthorn nreed com petition was keen. Montana was repre sented by the herds of Dwight A. Smith and A. H. Sales and Son of Bozeman in this grouping. Mr. Smith's herd took first in bulls, two years and under three, and second in the bulls one year and un der two. In addition he took third place with his yearling herd and a total of 12 placings in all classes. Mr. Sales had only one entry, a bull calf that took second place in his class. Hugh Walter, Townsend, entered his poland China hogs and placed in the money in all classes. His senior yearling boar won second place, but was consid ered good enough to receive a reserve grand championship. Mr. Walter's herd won 10 ribbons in all. J. E. Moore of Bozeman, showing for the first time this year, entered 13 head of Hampshire hogs and took 15 ribbons including first in the boar pig class, sec ond in aged sow and six third placings. Indications are that Montana stockmen will make an excellent showing at both the Kansas City and the Chicago expo sitions. -About Farming (From Montana State College) ARKETING, grading and disease control were the chief topics of consideration at the series of six wool growers' meetings held at Deer Lodge, Harlowton, Great Falls, Glas gow, Malta and Chinook recently.

S. bureau of agricultural economics. • The report points out the general level of agricultural prices continues above that of last year. The index of farm prices on October 15 was 139 as compared w with 140 on September 15, and 130 in October a year ago. There were no un usual price movements for the month ending October 15. Practically all kinds of livestock ad vanced In price during the month, but crops were slightly lower with the ex ception of oats and apples. The farm price of beef cattle on October 15 was the highest since October, 1920, the rise being attributed to light seasonal market re ceipts which have been considerably un der those of last year and the smallest in six years. Hog prices also advanced due largely to smaller marketings as a result of im proved prospects for corn and lower corn prices. The corn-hog ratio for the United States at 11.6 Is 1.3 points above last month, while the Iowa ratio rose 1.5 points to 12.2. Practically all live stock products including eggs and butter made price gains. The farm price of wheat was lower, especially in the important spring wheat producing states, the receipts of wheat at 14 primary markets up to October 15 being among the record movements. Oats, on the other hand, showed some ten dency to improve. Cotton prices declined 1% cents per pound during the month ending October 15. Potato prices were down. Influenced by the prospective size of the crop, and apple prices advanced in prospect of smaller production. <♦ URGING MORE FOREST ROADS MONTANA'S CONGRESSMEN ASKED TO HAVE APPROPRIATIONS FOF CON STRUCTION WORK DOUBLED Amount Now Set Aside Annually for Building Highways In National Reserves Is $4,500,000; Montana Automobile As sociation Favors a $9,000,000 Project Members of the Montana congres sional delegation are being urged by good roads enthusiasts In this state to support a movement to double the an nual appropriation of $4,500,000 for the construction of standard roads in the national forests of tbe nation. The Montana Automobile association, at its meeting last month, endorsed the plan and the proposition is soon to be laid before the Montana association of commercial organization secretaries for action. The delegation will be supported strongly. In submitting the plea for increased appropriation for federal forest roads the delegation will be furnished data showing that Montana has 1,183 miles of routes through the forests only 178 miles of which have been improved, 146 miles graded and 856 unimproved. The mile age on federal aid highways is 511 of which 178 miles have been built. In other words the forest roads are not keeping pace with state highway con struction. The estimated cost of completing the total forest highway system in Montana is $13,418,892 and Montana's allotment annually is only $350,000. A large part of the forest highways is in mountain ous sections where the average cost for construction per mile is from $15,000 to $20,000. In six counties of western Mon tana the cost of completing the forest mileage is $7,180,000. At the rate appro- j priations are made for forest roads, 1 many years will pass before the system w m be completed and hooked up with the state highways. i Montana's delegation in congress is asked to join with congressional mem bers Q f 10 other western states, Cali-! fornia, Arizona, Idaho, Nevade, Oregon, ' New Mexico, Utah, Washington, Colorado and Wyoming, to bring about the passage a bill doubling the present forestry* road aoproprlatlons so that all may build ^be roads to which they are entitled in j ess time than it takes to construct un der the pre sent system, .

Everything from a bedspring frame to a Ford steering wheel has gone Into the construction of this cycle car and the young man has shown Ingenuity and resourceful- ness in the construction of such a vehicle. Young Long tells of the building of ^ 4 „ car following story : "I made the chassis from an old steel bedspring. The front of the chassis Is about 1 Inches wide and the read 24 inches wide. I used a Ford front axle, cutting a piece about a fot long out of jthe center and bolting it together again with two heavy pieces of strap iron. The Ford spindles are used. I had to make babbitt bearings for the front wheels, because I couldn't use the regu lar cones *md bearings. The wheels are motorcycle wheels. "I used a wagon seat spring for the front spring, bolting it onto the front axle with U-bolts and onto the chassis through two holes which were In the spring. The regular steering part is used, but j had to eut it down to make the wheels line up right.

BOX tM Spokane, Washington DIVERSIFICATION BY FARM WOMEN (From Montana State College) ARMERS of Montana may well take a lesson in diversification from their better halves. This is the conclu sion reached by Miss Edith Mott, clothing specialist for the Montana ex tension service, in her contacts with thousands of Montana farm women who are carrying on systematic sewing work in their home demonstration clubs under the direction of the extension service. There is real diversity in the sewing of farm women, says Miss Mott, a diversity which is well Illustrated in the results F of a recent survey made by the United States department of agriculture. Whatever changes may have occurred in the last century to relegate the spin ning wheel to a place in antiquity the modernizing Influences which have made farming a highly specialized industry have had but a partial effect upon the activities in the farm home, says Miss Mott. Women no longer make their own cloth but they continue to make a large part of the clothing for themselves and the rest of the farm family. More than two-thirds of farm women make some part of the family wardrobe, and the articles made include nearly everything in the family wardrobe. However, while the tendency toward specialization is not so great on the farm the attitude of farm women even in such matters as sewing has more than kept pace with progress in other fields. The latest improved articles of equipment are the rule and not the exception in farm homes in many parts of the state. In the matter of textiles and materials farm women have developed an appreciation tfcat is fully apace with that of their city cousins. Meetings of home demonstration clubs where sewing is the major project are chiefly concerned with such things as style, fit, design, adaptedness, and so on. In fact, so much interest in these mat ters has been exhibited by farm women that the clothing project as outlined by the extension service is divided into two major divisions, the one for the first sea son's work dealing with construction and the other with selection and study of materials and other matters which for mert y received ilttle consider*«»,. ■À WINTER GRAZING IS NOW IN VIEW MUCH FEED REMAINS UNTOUCHED IN SOME OF THE NATIONAL FORESTS SAYS DISTRICT INSPECTOR Custer, Jefferson and Madison Forests Particularly Well Supplied With Grass According to Thomas Lommasson Who Has Just Returned to Missoula Because great quantities of feed re main untouched ou the ranges in cer tain of the national forests, the United States forest service will issue winter grazing permits this fall. Thomas Lom masson, district inspector of grazing, announced recently in Missoula. This is the first season that permits to range cattle on the national forests during the winter have been issued for many years. "This has been an exceptional grass Mr. Lommasson de year everywhere. I dared. "In all of the national forests the ! usual number of cattle and sheep were ranged, but the grass crop was so ex ceptionally heavy this year that consid erable feed remains after the regular grazing season. The Custer forest and the Jefferson and Madison forests are particularly well stocked with feed this i fall." j mer, and with their range stock holding j the highest price levels on the eastern I markets, the stock raisers of the east 1 ern and southern parts of the state are With plenty of feed during the sum enjoying an exceptionally prosperous year, Mr. Lommasson said. "Business men in the vicinity of the Jefferson for est tell me that business is better there this fall than it has been at any time since the high prices of the war brought an unwonted prosperity to the cattle and sheepmen," Mr. Lommasson stated. The grass crop on the ranges this sea son was twice as heavy as in 1926, ac cording to the survey made by Mr. Lom masson. The ordinary numbers of cattle and sheep were grazed on all the forest lands, and at the conclusion of the régu lar grazing season, the ranges remain with a greater amount of feed than or dinarily. Mr. Lommasson recently returned from the Madison. Jefferson, and Custer for ests, where he was engaged in experi ment work. Stock raisers in the three forests are showing an increased interest in the experimental work done by the forest service in the increase of calf crops and the establishment of breeding pastures, he said. pipe to keep the wheels the right dis tance apart. The regular cones and bear ings were used for the back wheels. "For the back springs I used a double buggy spring. I took It apart so I could put a spring on each side of the chassis. I took out the bolt that held the leaves of the spring together and put a longer one in so I could run It through a hole In the chassis and bolt it down securely. I fastened the springs on the back axle with U-bolts. "For the counter shafts I used a Ford rear axle. It was just the right length, so I didn't have to cut it off. I connected the sprockets which works from the transmission to the countershaft by tak ing a front wheel hub and drilling a hole through it and the countershaft and put ting a pin through it. "I used the sprocket off an old en gine for the back wheel, as it fitted the taper on the countershaft Just right. "For the bearings of the countershaft I used old car bearings, which I bolted onto pieces of maple and. then bolted onto the chassis. "I used a regular Ford steering gear and wheel and connected the gas control up to the regular gas lever on the steer ing. gear. ish. 25c each.—Advertisement.

Netted Gems in the Kalispell territory are showing a field run finer as to shape than any ever produced there. Because harvesting in that district was delayed by wet weather, the potatoes were allowed more time to mature and for this reason table stock should be of exceptionally , , . , - Planted late and passed over the dry period without a setback so that w ^ en the August rains started, the tubers continued growing Instead of taking sec ond growth. Seed stock is in fine shape and having been grown on nonirrigated land should be in good demand in the irrigated dis tricts of Washington, Warehouses, Mr. Dickey says, are fast being filled to full storage capacity. The two warehouses at Kallspell at this time probably contain over 150 carloads of potatoes ready to be loaded out whenever the market looks favorable or the growers care to ship. In case severe winter weather now sets In and the market takes a temporary jump the stock in the two track side warehouses can ship regardless of tem perature. Storing the stock in warehouses is a distinct improvement over the old method of "pitting." There is always a risk in opening a pit and hauling pota toes any distance during the winter sea son. No matter how high prices may be later in ♦'winter the risk of opening the pit vr". of hauling the stock to market ww often offset high prices, Commenting on the low potato market existing at the present time, Mr Dickey says that the potato growing districts of Minnesota, North and South Dakota have been shipping their crop much faster than last season and have forced the markets to absorb their stock faster than normal. During the first half of Octo ber these three states averaged about "TmTÄMK fine quality, says Mr. Dickey. There are very few cases of second growth and very few lll-shapen tubers. Most fields were crop show a surplus. This season's per capita production is very low, there being only six seasons inj the last 22 years showing a lower per : capita production, according to the gov-1 ernment report of October 1. Mr. Dickey feels that if table stock is 1 not marketed too rapidly the crop will bring growers a good financial return. EAST WATCHING STATE PROGRESS MONTANA'S DEVELOPMENT ATTRACT ING ATTENTION OF LEADERS IN TRADE AND MANUFACTURE New Yorker Who Heads Buying Organiza tion for 44 Big Stores, Asserts That Comment Upon Treasure State Re sources Greater Now Than Ever Before Montana's economic progress, her agricultural development and resources are attracting attention in the east as never before, due to this season's boun tiful crops and prosperous business conditions, according to Charles Weill, senior partner in the firm of Weill & Hartman, one of the world's largest group buying organizations. He is making a trip "around the rim" which will embrace visits to the cities in which the 44 stores affiliated with his group buying organization are located. "They've been talking - Montana throughout the east all fall," said Mr. Weill. "New York is impressed by your business showing and the wonderful trade possibilities growing out of your bumper crops and development of farm ing. As I came west I noted that this favorable comment grew in volume. 1 1 heard some wonderful stories of the 1 showing your state is making and of the growth of diversified agriculture. De- | velopment of better transportation facili ties through the building of branch lines in both eastern and western Montana tells the story most eloquently to me, for the railroads are keen observers of pos sibilities of the territory they serve and are conservative In their estimates of t kem "Newspapers generally are devoting a great deal of space to Montana's remark able comeback. In the Twin Cities I noted the papers are giving whole pages to stories of this state's agricultural greatness. "industrial centers of the east are quick to note business improvement and the economic progress out here has been reflected for quite some time in the in creased volume of business manufactur ers are getting from this territory. It is brought forcibly to the notice of our own organteatlon, which serves two large accounts in Montana." Mr. Weill's firm will purchase upwards of $175,000,000 worth of merchandise for the 44 stores in the Weill & Hartman chain this year, showing a material In crease over last year's volume.
