Saving Corn.

The annual slump In hogs has come
earlier than usual this year because
corn matured early and the hogs are
being finished up with as little of it as
possible. The light average weight of
the hogs marketed indicates this, and
so does their quality. which is inferior.
Everywhere there seems to be a dispo-
sition TO save corn This is all right
as far as it relates to the economical
use Of Il, but there may be false econ
omy In corn as in everything else. The
man who rushes his pigs to market to
save corn is in all probability prac-
ticing false economy. He is likely to
find that he could have marketed both
pigs and corn in one car later on to
better advantage This early slump
may induce those who have not mar
keted their hogs 10 keep them back.
make them good and in the end do bet
ter with them than II they shipped now.
Unless something checks this false
economy q corn that grain is going 70
come TO market in too liberal uuanti-
ties for the good of uri -

Reinforcement was put in, in the
form of barb wire In the mortar joint

BILE to use l to l mixture for the face
one-half inch thick. Belt courses are
made by mixing red mineral paint in
this facing mixture
a silo thirty feet high and twelve
feet in diameter will hold about eighty
tons of silage and will feed twenty
one head of cattle $50 days, and it will
take about eight acres of average corn
to fill it. If the diameter increases to
sixteen feet it will hold 100 tons to
feed thirty-two cattle and hold twelve
acres of corn. a silo thirty feet high
and twenty feet in diameter will hold
1S5 tons, feed fifty head of cattle and
require eighteen acres of average corn
to fill it. A silo thirty-siX feet high
and twenty feet in diameter will hold
30 tons, feed siXty-four head of cat
tie $50 days and will require about
twenty-four acres Of average corn.
1t is better not TO build more than
twenty feet in diameter, and it is bet
ter not to build less than thirty feet
in height. You need the height to get
the pressure to condense the silage into
as small space as possible. Twenty
feet in diameter is handler to fill and
handler to empty than a larger slo.

tbe lots Included from eight to tel
pigs. In every case the pigs hau ac
cess to rape pasture.
ON the check ration the average daily
gain per pig for the two years was
IL pounds. the feed required per pouho
of gain 519 pounds and the cost or 4
mound of gain cents. On the ration
including stock feeds the daily gain
ranged from LII pounds per head "a
"A pounds, the grain eaten per pound
of gain from 4.54 to 1856 pounds and
the cost of a pound of gain from 4.lt
to ass cents.
In the second series of tests corn
meal was compared with cornmeal and
| n commercial stock feed and with
cornmeal and a homemade stock feed.
using three lots of eight pigs each. fed
| for siXty-one days. All the lots had
the run of blue grass pasture In addi-
ton to the grain or grain and stock
feed The total gain was 514 pounds
on cornmeal alone, 4S3 pounds on corn
meal and commercial stock feed and
sol pounds on cornmeal and home
made stock feed. The feed required
per pound of gain in the three cases
was 4.91. $40 and 5.11 wounds and the
cost of a pound of gain 3.S3, 1863 and
A cents.
From the above table it will be seen
that it required more pounds of feed
for 100 pounds of gain in this expert
ment than it did for the average of the
lots in the previous experiment. This
can be accounted for from the fact
lat the rape pasture furnished a more
succulent feed than did the blue grass
pasture.
From the data presented in this
bulletin the reader must draw his own
as to the value of any of
the stock foods tried.
The homemade stock feed, according
to the authors, was made up as fol-
lows:
Gentian, two pounds, cost 80 cents;
ginger, one pound, cost 40 cents; So
lium bicarbonate, one pound cost 10
cents: fenugreek, five tenths of a
pound, cost 10 cents.
Purchase these materials at drug
store and have them mixed into fine
powders. Then mix with five pounds
If common salt and twenty-five pounds
If shorts. This compound will cost
lbout AZ cents per pound. For the
zig mix a pound with every forty
light pounds of grain.

ern cities, while New York and New
England fruit was a drug in the mar
ket. It was q situation which could
leave no doubt in the eastern apple
growers mind that something has to
be done. Naturally the eastern grower,
who sees his market thus cut out from
under him. thinks first of boxing his
own apples. He considers also the
fancy packing trademarking and 9th
er selling devices at which the west
ern men are so clever, All these
schemes he must adopt, initiate or
improve But there is one thing more,
and a very important one, which must
be taken into the account. The east
ern grower must grow better fruit
Eastern apples are conceded to be of
better quality than Pacific coast stock,
but the eastern grower has relied quite
too much on this single fact. The
western apples are allowed to have
the best color and finish, but again
the eastern grower has taken this esti-
mate too much for granted. The high
quality of New York and New Eng
land apples must be preserved, aug
mented and then advertised. The fruit |
must be carefully hand thinned on the
trees in order to get a uniform grade |
for box packing. The color and ap-
pearance must be improved by better
care. Western methods Of cooperative
packing, shipping and selling must be
adopted. These are large reforms
here pointed out, and the eastern farm
er is a hard subject for reform. but
these Improvements have all got to be
made. Otherwise the Oregon apple
grower will appropriate the entire east
ern market. and the eastern apple grow.
srs will go into the milk business

This has been going on for years and

tion TO the speed records Of the stall

their Individuality the carriage horse
work of the department Of agriculture
would he out Of place.
Specific work in horse breeding by
the United States government was
first made possible by the inclusion in
the appropriation act for the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1905, of an item
of $4,000 for experiments in animal
breeding and feeding in cooperation
with state agricultural experiment
stations.
The reasons for taking up t.,
breeding of carriage horses have been
fully set forth in various publications.
in articles for the press and in public
addresses. but a recapitulation here
may not be out Of order. Briefly
stated they We're: That carriage
horses are. as a rule. the most valul.lc
class on the market. that as n result
of the strong demand the supply was
gradually diminishing and that. not
withstanding all the importations of
the carriage type from abroad, the
preferred horse was the American
horse. Most important Of all. how.
ever, was the feeling that steps
should be taken to correct the practice
of casrating valuable stations and
selling valuable mares for other than
