up their Garments and put Resin on
their Hands and cut loose They did
the Grizzly Bear and the Mountain
Goat and the Turkey Trot and the

and the Duck Waddle and the Giraffe
Jump aud the Rhinoceros Roll and the

n0unced that meeting of the secre-

Chairman Prewitt, in opening the

A BULLETIN ON
WHEAT INVESTIGATIONS

The State Agricultural Expert
ment Station has recently issued
bulletin No. 102, written by w. R.
Thatcher and entitled wheat and
Four Investigations w." The bull
letin consists of two parts. Part
describes a method for selecting de-
sirable seed wheat for breeding for
improvement of nitrogen content of
wheat. Large numbers of analyses
of different individual plants and
different parts of a plant are re-
ported, showing how the nitrogen
content of the wheat kernel varies
with the different part of the plant
in which the kernel grew. A method
of selection by means of which sam
pies from each plant may be ana
lyzed and the remainder kept for
planting, if desired, is described.
Part II deals with the distribution
of nitrogen in different parts of an
individual head of wheat, showing
why kernels from different parts of
the head have different nitrogen
content. A copy of this bulletin
may be had free of charge by writ
ing to the Director of the Expert
ment Station, Pullman, Wash.

fit would really have been greatly
lessened it not wiped out entirely.
1t is estimated that the manurial
value of feeds is more than ample to
offset the expense in time and labor
of caring for herd of COWS and
their product. Thus we see that
the man who feeds his grain and
hay to his COWS and gets as much
for their product as the feed would
have brought had it been sold, thus
making money for, besides the value
OF the manure, he has saved the cost
Of transporting his hay and grain to
market. Whatever the COWS pro-
duce over and above the market
value of the feed consumed is just
that much added profit.
There is no excuse for keeping
COWS that do not pay market price
for the feed that they consume.
Every dairyman should keep record
OF the results produced by each COW
and just as soon as it becomes evil
dent that COW is not producing a
profit she should be disposed of and
the better COWS will then have a
chance to show a more profitable
average.
