Scope & Content Note: This image documents investigations and construction on various units of the Flathead Irrigation Project. The Project was initiated to determine rights and distribute water originating on the Flathead Indian Agency in Montana to both tribal and non-tribal land. The establishment of the Reservation in 1855 preceded Montana statehood by nearly 35 years and presented many challenges in establishing senority and providing for equitable distribution of water for the irrigation of farms and ranches.

Question by Kevs T: How can I naturally feed my chickens (meat and layers) without feeding them with store feed?
I have some chickens at home. Four big ones lay eggs and fifteen (raised for meat) are still small chicks about twelve days old. I have been buying their feed from the market. I am looking for a way that I could do away with the feed bought from the market and start making my own feed at home, so as to save money. Is there a way that I could make my own chicken feed without buying it from the market?
