Timothy Versus Corn Fodder

At the Missouri station it was shown
that when young beef cattle were win
tered on rough iced alone a better
gain was gotten in every trial with
timothy hay than with corn fodder.
From these trials" says the expert
menter, lit is perhaps safe to estimate
that timothy hay is worth fully twice as
much as whole corn fodder pound for
pound for wintering young cattle This
refers to large, coarse fodder from
crops averaging sixty to seventy
bushels of corn per acre. That grown
especially for fodder would presuma-
bly, have much higher feeding value
and could be fed with much less waste
than this coarse fodder 1t should be
borne in mind that in feeding this
weight, viz, the lower portion of the
stalk is refused by the stock and is
only valuable for bedding and man
ure.''

When to Grind Feed For Stock.

The following concise advice from a
recent book on feeding by Prof Henry
u wisconsin, a recognized authority
IN the subject, is commended: stThis
suhJect Is a difficult one to discuss
owing to the great variety of condi-
lions existing as to both grain and
animals Directions are here given
which may serve to guide the feeder
IN his practice For horses which are
out OF the stable during the day and
worked hard, all grain, with the pos
slbIe exception of oats should be
ground For those at extremely hard
work, all grain should be ground
and mixed with chaffed hay.
not be ground, nor need the hay or
straw be chafed. A COW yielding
large flow of milk should be regarded
as hard working animal and her feed
prepared accordingly. Fattening steers
and pigs may be crowded more rapidly
with meal than with Whole grain
though there is more danger attend
ant upon its use. Sheep worth feed
ing can always grind their own grain
In general, idle animals and those
having ample time for mastication
Illumination and digestion do noe need
tLeir grain or roughage prepared as
carefully as do those with only limited
time for these essential operations
Experiments quite generally show in
creased gains from grinding grain but
in many cases they are not sufh cient
to pay the cost of grinding"

wells as Creamery Catch easlns.

Every once in a while a creamery
company sinks tubular well to carry
of the waste water, but in no case so
far as we have heard has such a well
given satisfaction, and in most cases
the waste water contaminated the
water in the well used for the cream
cry, and in two cases caused serious
trouble, says the Dairy Record One
creamery, after running the waste
water in such well some distance
from the creamery was compelled to
draw water from a neighbor for two
months, and the pump in the cream
cry was kept going day and night dur
ing that time before the water could
be- used again Their experiment
should suffice for others, but stIll 9th
ers try the same scheme, usually to
their sorrow.

a Cellar.

from Farmers Review: Last fall
we had cellar made that pleases us
greatly. Its new feature is in the
benches of earth left on either side
and in one end; these benches are 21%
feet high from the cellar floor, this
floor being a walk or room surrounded
by these earth benches The entire in
side was cemented, of course, and as
the earth benches kept from moving

been no earth benches left we would

Jars, boxes or cans on these benches
than to place them on the floor; saves
stopping that all mothers will an

way; one that once has a convenient

Use of Roots in Cattle FEEDING

In all parts of the old world the
feeding rations of cattle include roots
In this country little attention is Daid
to them, though nearly all scientific
feeders advocate their use In the
feeding of beeves roots are valuable
especially before the finishing period
IS reached The amount to be fed
each day must depend on the size of
the steer, but to a 1,00O-pound steer
80 pounds per day may be fed at FIST
and this may be increased As the
time for finishing approaches the dailv
allowance of roots should be decreased
as the food affects the hardness of the
flesh, too many roots making it soft
The best feeders advocate cutting the
roots. shclng them Some pulp them
and mix them with the forage deIav
ing feeding till the forage is molstened
BY the pulp.

Beware of Poor cottonseed Meal.

OF late the practice has become
common of grinding the cottonseed
hulls with the meal and making a very
inferior product to be sold at a little
lower price than prime meal, says a
bulletin Oh the Missouri State Board of
Agriculture If the meal has aQy
ground hulIs or black specks in it, or
if it is offered at less than $25 or $40
laid down at your station in car lots
this year it may be taken for granted
that it is not prime meal and that it is
either adu1terated or stale. A sample
recently sent to the station for exam
nation by a feeder in southern Mis-
souri, showed on analysis to be nearly
one-ha1f hulls and to have a value of
about SIG per ton the basis of S25
for prime meal. Good meal has a
bright yellow color, free from black
specks cotton fiber; a fresh clean
smell and a pleasant taste. If in
clined to be lumpy if it shows any
evidence of having started to mold or
is dark in color, reject it.

Large Versus Small Pastures.

Prof w A Henry: The subject of
large or small pastures is frequently
discussed The majority of expert
enced American feeders favor a single
large range rather than numerous
small pastures. Grasses, both in va
riety and quality, are never quite the
same over the whole of a large pas
ture, and cattle soon detect the slight
differences, and satisfy their desire
for variety by ranging from one spot
to another. In large pastures the hab-
its of the animals become regular, and
it is interesting to study their move
ments- The herd will be found in the
morning on one side of the valley,
feeding on the more abundant vegeta-
ton. Later, as the SUMS heat increas-
es they appear on the hillside, where
there is movement of air and where
the grasses are shorter, but more nu-
tritious. At noon they are to be seen
resting in the shade at still another
point This regularity in grazing GER
ta1nly cOnduceS to comfort and quiet
and is of Importance to profitable re-
turns Where the pastures are cut up
into several lots, the fresh bite of
rank heritage which comes with each
change leads to irregu1arity and I'M
rest, thus reducing the gains.

Lewiston buyers secure the pro-

county. We are safe IN placing
the total sales OF fat and stock
hogs to outside markets at 25O0O
head and where we take into con-
sideration that the sheep camps
and people generally consume a
large amount OF bacon during a
year we are certainly very conser-
yative when we estimate the total
number raised at 10000 head.
Scarcely any other industry brings
such large amount OF money into

PULLMAN ORDINARY
SLEEPERS.
Dated August %, 1902,

The tourist travel between the
East and the Pacific Coast has
reached enormous proportions in
the last few years, and calls for a
seecial class OF equipment. To
meet this demand the Pullman
Company has issued from its shops
what it technically calls the pull
man Ordinary Sleeper" These
cars appear similar to the regular
sleepers being bnilt on the same
plan, but not furnished with the
same elegance. They are equipped
with mattresses, blankets, sheets,
pillows, pillow-cases, towels, combs,
brushes. etc, requiring nothing of
the kind to be furnished by the
passenger. Each car has stove
for making tea and coffee and do
ing light housekeeping" and each
section can be fitted with an ad-
Unstable table. A uniformed por-
ter accompanies each car, his bust
ness being to make up berths,
Keep the car clean, and look after
the ants and comforts OF the pass
enger. In each of the trains
which a, dispatched daily from
Portland by the 0. R. & n. Co. is
to be found one of these pullman
Ordinary Sleepers." The car at
tached to the "Chicago- Portland
Srecial" goes through to Chicago
without change, and the one in the
Atlantic Express" runs to Kansas
City without change. Passengers
IN this car for Chicago change to a
similar car at Granger.
Much of the first class travel is
heing carried in these cars, the
lates being lower, and the service
nearly equal to that in the palace

The Oregonian OF a recent issue
made some very appropriate obser-
vations OIL the present and past
conditions in Eastern Oregon as
follows: Neighborhood and county
fairs have been held more numer-
ously in Oregon this Fall than
ever before. They have without
exception proved attractive and
entertaining to large number OF
thrifty, wide-awake people, and
the exhibits have been unusually
fine and varied. Crook county,
until recently considered almost
exclusively a stockraising district,
held fair at Prineville last week,
at which peaches 10 inches, tom
atoes between II and Is inches,
Hungarian prunes 81 inches, plums
s! inches and pears 104 inches in
circumference were shown. This
together with a livestock exhibit
that eQualed that at the State Fair
at Salem, showed a pleasing and
profitable diversity in the products
OF Crook county, with a grade sec
ond to none in the state, or, for
that matter, in the world. But
better than the showing made by
the exhibits OF these local fairs is
the social spirit that they incite
and foster. The rural community
is not more dependent for prosper
its upon the excellence and abun-
dance OF its agricultural products
than upon the cultivation of
spirit OF neighborliness. Time was
when Crook county, in common
with the rest of Eastern Oregon,
was a vast stock range-nothing
more. The lives OF the ranchers,
especially OF the yoman folks, were
almost pitifully isolated, and the
neighborly spirit was perforce dor
mant. 1t is gratifying to know
that the loneliness and isolation of
the great ranges has to some extent
disappeared, and that spirit Of
friendly competition between
neighbors, as witnessed in the late
fair at Prineyille, has sprung up
and is being assiduously cultivated.
