Boulder Valley Hunter
Kills 4 Mountain Lions
ROY MURRAY BRINGS ’EM BACK DEAD
Roy Murray, rancher and hunter in
the Boulder valley, recently killed four
mountain lions in the Elkhorn range
The above picture shows him with the
hides, his favorite horse and favorite
and invaluable dog.
Murray and his brother, Clarence,
located several years ago in Boulder
valley as ranchers. They had previ
ously lived In British Columbia. When
they moved to this section of th^
country, they took up ranching in
Jefferson county, but have kept up
their trapping and hunting as a side
line.
Travels on Horseback
Their services in the latter respect
are greatly valued by the sportsmen.
Each Hon will average three to four
elk or deer a week, according to those
familiar with their depredations. The
Hons, whose carcasses are shown above,
had just killed two elk which had been
“planted” in the vaUey by the Rocky
Mountain Sportsmens association.
When Murray learned of it, he im
mediately set out to find them. He
travels on horseback and carries a
30-30 rifle.
WUliam Sweet, an active and en
thusiastic Butte sportsman, had the
following to say regarding the Murray
brothers and their determination to
keep the district free of these pred
ators :
Lions Powerful, Destructive
“The fact that Murray kills every
lion that drifts onto the Elkhorn, Crow
Creek, Bull Mountain, Dry Creek and
Little Boulder ranges is a godsend to
the sportsmen of this locality. He es
timates that one Hon wHI kill on an
average of three elk or three deer
each week, which would make a total
of 140 deer or elk kHled in the course
of a year by these four Hons. Thej
are powerful, vicious and very destruc
tive.
“The state bounty on Hons at this
time is SSO each, in addition to a
bounty paid by the Taylor grazing act.
Has Hunting Dog
"Few people realize the dangers and
hardships encountered on a Hon hunt.
They inhabit the highest, most inac
cessible mountain country available,
where high cliffs, shale rock, faHen
timber, cold, wind-swept ridges and
deep crusted snow—and usual sub-
COWS GIVE MILK
OF PINKISH HUE;
IT KEEPS SWEET
DRUG RIDS STOCK OF INTERNAL
PARASITES AND IS CHEAP
TO USE
A drug which makes cows give slow
to-sour pink milk is heralded by Ag
ricultural Expert C. E. Howell of
Pomona, Calif., as a likely medium to
rid horses—an all other domestic ani
mals—of most of their internal para
sites.
The drug Is phenothiazine, parent
substance of many dyes. Cows that eat
It give pink mHk which will keep for
several days in a warm room.
Howell, manager of the University
of California’s W. K. Kellogg Arabian
horse ranch near here, said In an
Interview that the drug gave promise
of being an anthelmintic—a medium
of destroying intestinal worms—of
great value.
"Experiments on our horses,” he said,
“Indicate that it is efficient, easily ad
ministered, non-toxic and cheap—
which means that for the first time
the average farmer may have a method
which is not too expensive to rid his
horses of the parasites that weaken
them and reduce their resistance to
disease.”
Destroys Larvae
Phenothiazine, said Howell, first was
synthesized in 1885 but was not put
to practical use until 1934, when it was
used to destroy mosquito larvae. Dur
ing the next four years it was tested
successfully as an insecticide in place
of poisonous pest-control drugs such
as lead arsenate.
In recent years, In a somewhat dif
ferent recrystallized form, it was
tested as an anthelmintic and found
effective In treatment of sheep, swine,
cattle, poultry and dogs.
Phenothiazine Is a light green pow
der which turns darker upon exposure
to the air. It was mixed w^th feed
and administered to 45 purebred Ara
bian horses, including weanlings, year
lings, stallions, geldings, mares with
foals, barren mares and mares from
6 to 10 months along in pregnancy.
"The treatment was 100 percent ef
fective against strongyles — small
stomach worms—the most common
type of infestation,” said Howell.
Effective Against Worms
“It was partially effective against
pin worms but apparently had no ef
fects upon bots.
"One of the treatment's biggest ad
vantages Is Its safety," he declared.
"Another is the Inexpensiveness of the
treatment. One pound, enough for
eight horses, costs $1.50.”
Howell said he was continuing the
experiments to determine whether
treatments would have to be repeated
annually or more or less often to keep
the animals free of worms.
"It appears,” he concluded, "that
phenothiazine can serve a very use
ful function to the horse-breeding In
dustry as a safe and efficient anthel
mintic for brood mares up to the 10th
month of pregnancy.
"Further, It has been demonstrated
that It can be used in worming mares
with suckling colts with no danger to
the mare or foal.
"To farmers and horse breeders who
have tried everything else, even to
harrowing pastures In an effort to
sun-kill parasites on the ground, this
drug looks like a real godsend."
Uiucjii4.is-.il d v» □ '
zero weather —impede the hunter. It
is usually necessary to camp at night
without food for either horse or man,
for several nights in this terrible
weather, with only a campfire for
company. Truly, it tests the mettle of
the most seasoned hunter, very few
of whom are able to stand this test.
"Murray has a lion dog which he
greatly values and it could not be
bought at any price. It is a cross be
tween an Airedale and Kentucky fox
hound, with a keen nose and a great
fighter. His routine of hunting these
beasts is to wait for a heavy snowfall,
then ride, sometimes for days, to find
a track, and then the long ride until
he thinks it is fresh, at which time
the dogs are turned loose. Usually ft
is only a short time until he hears
his lead dog bark 'Treed,’ and the
end of the lion’s depredations is in
sight. A well-directed shot from his
gun brings the lion’s career to an end.
He is skinned and soon ready for the
taxidermist.”
In one instance a few years ago
Murray followed a large male lion for
seven days and nights, covering sev
eral mountain ranges. The Hon had
klUed four deer and elk this time.
Murray finally ran him to earth In
the Hadley park country, south of
Boulder.
Poultry
ointers
It would be disastrous to have fowl
cholera or typhoid appear in the poul
try flock just before the spring breed
ing season. In addition to the mor
tality that might result, there would
be the inevitable loss in egg produc
tion, fertlHty, and hatchability.
A more rapid and effective immunity
can be stimulated by vaccinating
chickens with a bacterin containing
killed cultures of the organisms caus
ing fowl cholera and typhoid. When
these are injected beneath the skin
with a syringe, the fowl wIH rapidly
buUd up its own immunity and thus
acquire a resistance to the disease.
If a laboratory diagnosis proves that
fowl cholera or fowl typhoid alone ex
ists In the flock, then bacterins made
from these specific organisms can be
obtained. The bacterin used against
cholera is called Pasteurella aviclda
and is named after Pasteur, who did
the first work with the fowl cholera
organism.
The bacterin used to stimulate an
immunity against fowl typhoid and
paratyphoid is called Gallin arum ty
phlmurlum. The bacterin containing
both cholera and typhoid bacterins is
known as Aviseptlcus galllnarum.
Resistance to infectious diseases may
be lowered after the close confinement
that is forced upon the flocks during
the winter months. Resistance to colds
may be reduced also, and for that rea
son vaccination with mixed bacterin,
(Avian) chicken or turkey formula,
which contains cultures of the organ
isms commonly found in colds and roup
will prove beneficial also.
Vaccination with these protective
bacterins if Inexpensive and simple in
operation. For over a generation live
stock producers have used bacterins of
many types to protect their cattle, and
poultrymen are now using bacterins to
even a greater extent. The total In
vestment and potential profit in a
flock of chickens often is equal to the
value of many herds of livestock. For
that reason, vaccination is an equally
profitable Investment.

$554 PER SECOND
The Associated Press addressed a
story to the mathematically minded.
We would say, rather, that the story
should have been aimed at the aver
age mind. Only the mathematically
minded can understand 17.5 billion
dollars. But the average mind under
stands $554 per second. That is the
rate of expenditure required to spend
17.5 bllHon dollars in one year; 31,-
436,000 seconds, In other words. It is
more money than one man could
shovel.
Of this $554 per second expenditure
$262 WHI be collected in taxes and
$292 raised by borrowing.
If your friend says: "Walt a min
ute," you can compute the cost at
$33,240, but if he says, “just a second,”
it means only $554. Sprinters figure
they are doing pretty well when they
run the 100 in 10 seconds. While 100
yards are being run at this rate, Uncle
Sam is sluffing off $5,540.
Tax experts have figured that out
of each dollar a person earns, 25 cents
is paid out in taxes In one form or
another. Of course, this 25 cents is split
up between federal, state and local tax
coHectors. A person earning $2,000 a
year would pay out about SSOO in taxes.
In order to make up the difference
between the $262 collected and the
$292 borrowed out of the $554 spent
each second, the number of persons
making $2,000 a year or more would
have to be more than doubled or the
tax would have to be more than
doubled.
But the average person to whom $554
per second has real and painful mean
ing perhaps is wUHng to share his
share of the burden providing this na
tion is made secure.—(Montana Stan
dard.)
Poultry Prospects Fine
'And More Profits Due
After a year of cutting down of
flocks because of a narrower spread
than usual between feed cost and the
price of eggs and poultry, the cycle
has turned and one or two years of
flock expansion in response to profit
able feeding ratios probably He ahead.
The year has started with'slightly
smaller laying flocks and less young
stock stHl to be sold than a year ago,
while public buying power probably is
5 to 8 percent higher. Smaller supplies
and stronger demand spell higher
prices than a year earlier.
Feed costs over the next four or
five months probably will average
lower than at the same time In 1940.
With eggs and poultry considerably
higher relative to feed costs during the
l hatching season than last year, more
: young chickens probably win be raised
I than in 1940. If such an increase oc-
I curs, It Is Hkely to be reflected in
receipts of poultry in the second half
of 1941 and In larger additions of
pullets to laying flocks late In the
year. However, with a prospect that
Incomes of consumers will continue to
rise, poultry production may remain
more profitable than usual until well
into 1942.

Clean Cows Will Put
Cash in Farmers* Bank /
At this time of the year special at
tention is required to keep manure
from accumulating on the flanks and
rear quarters of milk cows. There is
little pleasure in milking a dirty cow.
The cows that go out in the pasture
in early spring with “bark” all over
the rear quarters are not .good adver
tising for milk and its products. They
are a walking advertisement of a care
less dairyman, Clean mHk production
is impossible from such a herd.
Cows are easily kept clean if a Httle
attention is.given from time to time
during the day while working around
the barn. The careful man scrapes
down the platform several times a day
and pulls the bedding back to present
a clean bed as often as possible. It is
a short job to wipe off the accidental
soUlng that has taken place if it is
done before It hardens. TMe gutter
should have a layer of bedding placed
in the bottom after cleaning to absorb
moisture and prevent the taHs from
getting wet.
Chicken Changes Garb
With Each Moulting
Mrs. S. V. MiHer of Kuna, Idaho, has
an unusual chicken.
Mrs. MiHer had a flock of Black
Minorca chickens and a few White
Leghorn hens. About four years ago
some speckled chickens hatched. She
kept one very pretty pullet. The pullet
was black with a few white specks.
That fall when she molted, her new
coat was made of white feathers with
only a few black specks. Each year
she changes exactly opposite from the
color she was before molting. She is
a very good layer and a curiosity.

“SPUD” TAKEN FOR GRANTED
Use of the word “spud” in referring
to the potato is so common that it is
taken for granted. The word had an
interesting origin, and J. Robert
Walker, extension editor of the Uni
versity of Idaho, has checked up on its
history. The word "spud," he says, is
derived from the Initial letters of the
name of an old dietetic society, now
defunct. The name of that organiza
tion was the “Society tor the Preven
tion of Unwholesome Diet.”
