Questions and HnsWer$

Cues: AS a subscriber to The
Ranch I would like to ask about the
feeding of my COW. Your answer to
f. III. K, Spokane, in October 10th
issue is an answer to most OF what |
want to know, but would like to ask
how much cracked wheat or cracked
barley to give at one feeding. Also
if it would do to give them equal
parts of each. Will iced oat hay and
carrots as long as the latter lasts.
What change would you make in the
feed, if any, when the carrots are gone?
Up until now I have never fed crack
ed wheat or barley but have fed equal
parts bran and shorts. Il. A. W..
Colby. Wash.
Ans: 1t makes very little difference
whether cracked wheat or cracked
barley is fed or mixture Of the two
in any proportion. These are feeds
of the same nature, both being high
in carbohydrates and therefore the
cheapest is the one to use. From five
to eight pounds per day may be fed
to COWS ranging from 800 to 1000
pounds and giving about 20 to 80
pounds of milk daily. I would sug-
gest, however, that in order to make
the ration narrower some protina or
soy bean meal be fed in connection.
A grain ration of two pounds bar
ley, two pounds wheat and two pounds
soy be meal will go we'll with 10
pounds of oat hay and 30 pounds OF
carrots. The following table shows
the digestible nutrients in the feeds:

from the common bull thistle by it's
small heads and it's long, running
underground stems. The bull thistle
comes up from the seed, lives over
one winter, produces flowers and
seeds the second year and then dies.
The Canada thistle lives on from
year to year, sending up new shoots
from the underground parts, storing
up new food below ground and thus
establishing itself very firmly. For
tunately very few good seeds are pro-
duced and the weed does not spread
to any great extent from place to
pla by seed. Only occasionally is
a new start made. 1t does, however,
spread from center in every direc-
ton in a field, as the underground
stems grow, and small piece of one
of these stems dragged by pillow or
cultivator will start piece in another
part of the field.
To eradicate this weed requires
careful effort. First of ALL every sign
of it must be hoed out and all the
underground stems removed that may
be. The plot must then be carefully
watched, and as fast as new stems
come up they must be hoed off. The
sending up of stem uses some OF
the food which is stored below ground.
If this stem is removed before it can
establish itself, spread out its leaves
to the sunlight and manufacture new
food, in time the underground stems
will be starved out, but if the new
shoots are neglected more food will
be manufactured and stored, and the
whole fight must be begun again. Ii
this work is carried out with great
care one should be able to eradicate
the thistle in a single growing season.

dairy COWS? If not, can l raise a
soiling crop that will materially i'm
prove the soil for growing young
trees aud get immediate use of the
land the next spring? Will soy beans
or COW peas do we'll here and when
must they be planted and what is the
best means of handling themY j. s.
G. PIosser, Wash.
Ans: Since the cows that you will
find on the Western coast have been
bred there only short time, the
climate would have very little effect
on changing the breed. For that
reason I think that COW brought
from the coast would do equally we'll
in your locality II the proper feed
and care was given. The breed that
you should get will have to be de-
termined by yourself. It makes every
little difference, for we find this is
true, that il breeder can make good
with one breed he can also make good
with another. 1t must of course be
understood that it you are going into
dairying dairy breed must be select
ed.
There are many breeders in this
state who have good stock for sale;
several are in the Yakima Valley,
many on the coast around Seattle and
some near Spokane. In regard to
feeding turnips, we have found that
they make very good substitute for
the grass if you feed them to the COWS
after milking. The other root crops,
such as mangle and carrots are per-
haps a little better in that they do
not give the milk disagreeable odor.
I do not know OF crop that will
increase the fertility Of the soil plant
ed after the early potatoes have been
harvested. Ii the season is long
enough possibly kale or some of the
root crops may be grown to sufficient
size to make fair feed, and since you
irrigate in that section, L judge that
you will be able to get good crop.
These feeds, however, do not add
plant food to the soil. For that pur-
pose would suggest that you use
some legume or the vetches, but In
that case they must not be plowed up
for three or four years if they are to
be of much value in adding plant
food. So far as I know soy beans or
COW peas will not do in the Yakima
valley but We have been able to get
good crops from Canada field peas
sowed with oats and this may not be
bad combination for your locality.
They are planted in the early spring
with the oats and harvested as you
would for oat hay.

THE GOVERNOR
is RECKLESS

The first two sentences in Governor
Hooper's message vetoing the amend
ment to the elaction law are as follows:
During the administi alton of Gov.
Robert l.. Taylor in 1897 the legislature
passed law comforting upon the gov
ernor the power of appointing all the
county election commissioners in the
state. 1t would be waste of time to
hearse the familiar record of stuffed
ballot boxes; falsified returns and po-
litical depression that followed in the
wake of this enactment.
Aside from this reckless SANDER and
befouling of the people of his own state
this come with poor grace from the
man who as a candidate for governor
permitted a partisan election commits
sion in his own county to make up
list of election officers among whom
his honorable opponent was not allow
ed single representative. Gov. Hoop
er has no more evidence upon which to
base his reckless statement than dem
ocrats now have to say that he and his
friends who had absolute control of the
election machinery in Cooke county
''stuffed the ballot box and falsified the
returns.' He is talking wildly, al
most incoherently--a melancholy con-
trast to the wise, conservative, nonpar-
tisan business administration he was
going to give the people. Instead of
out his pledge, he is unques-
responsible for the anarchy
now threatening the state government

sets Discovered by Counsel

An adjourned meeting of the
creditors of Whisman Brothers,

of the bankrupts was completed.
The examination was conducted
principally by Thad A. Cox, but
participated in by Attorneys A.

w. Price and E. B. Hensley. Il
was probably one of the most
searching examinations that has
been conducted in the bankruptcy
court for some time. An inter
esting legal fight is being waged
over the property claimed as ex-
empt, as the investigation by Mr..
Cox brought out number OF
items not listed on the schedule
of assets. The question as to
whether or not these will be list
ed as assets is yet to be determin-
ed. These include farming tools
and implements, stock, corn and
hay now being used on the farm
purchased by the bankrupts since
their retirement from the mercan-
tile business in this city; also
property and accounts in the
name of the wives of the bank
rupts, and life and fire insurance
policies. A. r. johnson repre-
sents the bankrupts.

Nashville, April 2l.-The senate to-
day prepared to shut off communica-
ton with the house, owing to the lat
ter's lack Of quorum. Early in the
session this morning Mr.. Cox raised a
question of parliamentary inquiry, and
stated that he was informed by the
speaker of the house that there was no
quorum present in that body and that
the house would adjourn from day to
day until quorum was present He
asked that the clerk be directed to
communicate with the speaker of the
house and ascertain if quorum was
present in that body, and report back
TO the senate.
Later Mr.. Cox reported that the
speaker of the house had informed the
senate that quorum was not present,
only forty-sov9n members being on
hand. He then raised the point could
the senate communicate with the
house on any question. The speaker
ruled that the senate could not.
Mr.. Holiday made the inquiry as
to how long the house had been with
out quorum, if the journal so showed
and how long the journal showed no
quorum. The inquiry was accepted
by Speaker Baxter and spread on the
journal.
The senat, today stopped referring
bills to the committees, the rules pre-
venting this within five days of tho
session.
