Several southern experiment sta
tions have made tests Of cotton seed
and cottonseed hulls as a fattening ra-
tion for cattle. At the North Carolina
station it was found that 7S4 pound
steers made an average gain of is
pounds per day for 100 days on a ra-
tion Of five pounds Of cotton seed and
twenty pounds Of cottonseed hulls.
At the Arkansas station 700 pound
steers made an average daily gain Of
1877 pounds during a ninety day feed
ing period receiving a ration Of three
and a half pounds of raw cotton seed.
eleven pounds of cottonseed hulls and
nine pounds Of cowpea hay.

The animal husbandry department
of the Wisconsin experiment station
has lately published some interesting
statistics along the line OF economies
effected in the use Of the silo as an ad.
junct in stock feeding and dairy opera
tions. In the matter of economy in
storage space it is cited that eight tons
of silage can be put in the space occu-
pied by ton of mixed hay, 400 cubic
feet. the former containing 1850
pounds of digestible dry matter as
against 960 pounds in the ton Of hay
The cost of handling the crop Of corn
in the shape Of silage was found to be
less than with any other method used
81 per acre on the basis Of a twelve
ton yield. In no way was the flow Of
milk of the dairy herd so well kept up
during dry summers by the use Of
silage. In the feed lot it was found
that silage fed steers sold at 81 80 per
hundred pounds. while those fed H.
silage brought only S4.T0 For ever
hundred pounds Of gain it was found
that All pounds Of silage fed saved Il
pounds Of grain and 156 pounds of al
falfa At the close Of the experiment
the silage fed steers showed a profit Of
S4.10 per head. while on the same
grade Of steers fed no silage there was
a loss of Sl.4T per head

Big Wheat Crop in Prospect

The recent heavy downpour Of rain,
which has given all of the wheat
growing districts of eastern Washing
ton thorough and ample drenching,
causes great jubilation among the
farmers in that belt. The high price
to which wheat has recently gone has
prompted the seeding of the greatest
acreage ever known in this state. and
now the welcome rains have almost
assured the greatest chop ever har-
vested here. The only thing which
could prevent recori-breaking crop
in all parts of the wheat growing sec
ton of this country would be scorch-
| ing winds during the summer, when
the wheat is in the milk, but the
districts which are subject to this Wis
itation at remote intervals are rel
atively small.
| A record-breaking crop of wheat in
this state would mean something in
excess of 100000 bushels, the
farm price of which promises to
closely approach the one-dollar mark,
while the export price will be con-
siderably in advance of that. This
single crop promises to bring into the
state something like $40,0O0,OG0
every dollar of which will be dis
bursed or invested at home. What
this will mean to the state can hardly
be overestimated. Prosperity is GER
tain. for another year at least, on the
strength of this one crop.
But, in addition to a great wheat
crop. the salmon industry, which is
third in Importance in the state,
Ipromises also to have a record season,
or at all events catch greatly in
excess OF that seen for many years
past. The lumber industry, it is true,
|languishes yet, awaiting the action of
congress on the tariff bill. Should
predictions be realized and the duty
remain unaffected, there will be a
boom in the lumber business prompt
ly after the new law goes into effect.
Everything certainly looks promising
in this state now.-Seattle Post-In-
telligencer.

MAY CHOOSE MEN
SPEAKER
SLAYDEN OF PIERCE MAY BE
THE MAN CHOSEN IN CASE A
SPECIAL SESSION OF LEGISLA-
TURE Is CALLED.

King county members of the house
of representatives, in anticipation OF
a special session of the legislature,
are laying their plans to defeat L.
o. Meigs for speaker. The members
of the King county delegation insist
that when the house meets again it
will have to reorganize, and that it
will be necessary.to choose speaker.
Meigs' vacillating attitude during
the session did not meet with a great
deal of favor with the gentlemen
from King. and other delegations who
felt they were "double-crossed" have
it in for the Yakima man.
After the session got down to bust
ness last January it was evident that
SlaydeE, of Pierce, was by far an
ADLER man than Meigs in every res
pect, and it is altogether likely that
he will be the candidate of the in
surgents.
There is some doubt in the minds
of the local legislators whether Hay
will call a special session. The tenn
per of the legislators is now to in
vestigate everything in sight. Gov
ernor Hay is not at all anxious, it is
said, to go into the Pullman college
deficiency. Still more reluctant is he
to go deep into the shortage of the
Yakima fair Their are several other
matters that are touchy to the east
ern Washington governor which
members of the legislature from other
districts are not squeamish about.
The Yakima fair is also tender SUBJ
ject with Meigs.
There is consequently considerable
talk in Seattle of a demand for an
extra session.
