TOURIST LURE Representatives Parks Highway Decide to Ad- vertise Passing of Ferry ANNUAL \MEETING HELD) Report Made That 60,000 Auto: Loads of People Passed Over Red Trail Last Year Completion of the Missouri River | bridge hero is to be extensively ad- vertised next spring and summer to | tourists contemplating trans-conti- | nental auto trips as an example of the improvements being made on the National Parks Highway, Geo. N. Keniston, vice-president of the trails | association, said upon his return from Spokane, Wash. where the annual meeting of the association was held. Spokane newspapers will feature the bridge in early editions, and :other advertising will be given to North Da- | kota through this, Mr. Keniston found much interest manifest in the Wridge and in work being done on the Red Trail in North Dakota during his trip when he stopped at several towns. Mr. Keniston found business men wf the Spokane section optimistic over the future, and expecting a large im- | migration next year. A. representative of the government predicted a 40 per cent increase in auto travel to Yel- lowstone National Park next year. Sixty thousand auto loads of_tour- ists passed jover the National Parks Highway last year, Mr. Keniston in- formed the meeting at which he Pre sided. The association decided its greatest | objective during the present year would be to better the road conditions as much as possible and especially to indulge in spreading the knowledge of the trail, as the results of the past year are regarded as having been reached with about one tenth the pub- icity the trail might have. Discuss Camp Sites ‘Coincident with the meeting of the Trail association, the men having in charge the tourist camps in the parks met and after considering the large problems of the park camps, decided { that a charge of fifty cents per day be | made for tourist parties the charge being made in an attempt to reduce the number of “bums” who curing the past year gave trouble in some of the camp sites. This meet- ing also recommended that there should be no private advertising in any of the camps, that public speak- ing be not allowed and that lights be tout at eleven o’clock p. m. each night. It was also suggested that a system of registration, including the name of each passenger and driver, the make and number of the car and ‘the license number be inaugurated. The Department of the Interior was represented at the. meeting by G. E.| Gooding, chief engineer of the Nation- al Parks Service, who announced that 34 miles of new -roads: were proposed for the parks this coming summer, construction’ being pushed as fast as possible under the material conditions in the parks district. Officers Reelected Mr. Keniston believes that the most important procedure of the meeting was the selection of Fred Adams ot ‘Spokane as the executive secretary of the association. Mr. Adams _ re- | signed his position as secretary of a big Columbia river irrigation project to accept the new position. He will become the active head of the-promo- tion of the trail, and will be respon- sible for the raising of the proposed budget jof $22,500. The other officers were re-elected, including. W. G. Ed- ens of Chicago, vice presidents George N. Keniston of Bismarck and John A. Gelatly of Wenatchee, (Wash. and treasurer F. L. Crow of Spokane. Tho North Dakota members of the execu- tive qommittee are J. J. White of Fargo, D. C, Rand of Jamestown, and ¥, Berringer of Dickinson. The Ag.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Is silage any better when put up in} | Staye silos than when it is saved in concrete silos? Stave silos are prob-| ably the more common kind; they are usually less costly. Many people, how- ever, prefer the more permanent con- material may be found near home in many cases; but there is an impres- sion on the part of some people t the concrete silo does not give such good results in the preservation of the silage from spoiling and from freezing. Experiments made by. the dairy di- | vision, United States Department of | Agriculture, do not bear out this no tion, In experiments conducted on the dairy division farm, at Beltsville, Md., two silos were used, one concrete and one stave, standing side by side. The stave silo was directly south of the concrete oné, and hence'got more sun- shine and less north wind. Otherwise they had exactly the same conditions, Temperatures in the two silos were Concrete and Wooden Silos, Well Con- structed. taken by means of electrical thermom- eters buried in the silage, which made a record which could be read on the outside. The thermometers were placed 8 inches and 18 inches from the wall and also in the middle ot each silo. Three sacks of silage were carefully weighed and buried in each silo at various depths, close to the thermometers; and when the silage was fed down to where the sacks were, their contents were taken out and an- alyzed, The quality of the silage was judged by its appearance.and odor and its palatability to the cows, If much difference had been apparent a feed- ing trial would have been made to see which lot of silage was better, but the results in the two silos were so nearly alike that it was not thought worth while to make the feeding test, In short, neither the temperatures nor the chemical analysis of the two kinds of silage revealed any marked difference that could be ascribed to the material used in the construction of either silo. .Cows afte the silage from both,silos with the same avidity. It is concluded, -therefore, that farmers may build stave silos or concrete silos, which ever they prefer, without any fear of not getting good silage from either one; if the silage ts put up right. It is assumed, of course, that the silo in either case will be properly con- structed, with. smooth walls, straight up and down, so as to.be free from pockets and bulges, and properly coat ed inside with coal tar or some sim- ilar preparation; and that the silage will be properly packed, so that all air will be excluded. Silage will not keep in any kind of silo unless packed down and kept airtight. GOOD PUREBRED BULLS HELP Breeder Achieves More in Two Genera- tlons Than He Can in Five i With Grade Sires. With purebred bulls a_ breeder | achieves more in the improvement of his herd in two generations than he can in five with grade bulls, says the, ture. Department workers have thor- up hefds to better milk, butter and | beef production. Better sires may be obtained either by individual purchase or by becoming a member of a bull association. Literature on the latter method can be obtained by writing to the department, and will furnish use- ful reading during the winter. Full information can also be obtained by consulting your county agent or- state agricultural college.

Before the calf is a week old dampen the skin over the horn buttons, apply vaseline or lard freely to the skin around the buttons, wrap one end of the caustic with strong paper to protect the hand and then rub it upon the button until it is ready to bleed. Be careful to keep the caus- tic out of the eyes and do not burn skin other than that over the horn button.
