NEGLECTED. HENS CAN'T LAY

contributor to the current issue of Farm and
Firesde makes the following report:
Some of the neighbors complained last winter
about not getting eggs. 1t would have been very
strange If the hens had laid any eggs. One neigh
Dor has no chicken house at all. Some of the hens
roost about the barn. while others sit trees An
other neighbor has hen house that has probably
never been cleaned since it was built several years
ago. The window is used for ventilation.
The doors are closed in winter, and the hens
60 in or out at will. The perches never clean
ed no grit is ever given even ashes. OF course
the fowls are covered with lice.
"A well cared for flock of hens will give as
good returns for the feed consumed as any other
live stock on the place We know by long expe-
renee The work is easy IL it is done regularly,
even the keeping of the house clean and free of
lice"

GROWING BARLEY
FROZEN BY COLD

As a result of the cold weather of
few weeks ago much of the growing
barley in the country south of Pendle-
ton was frozen and the farmers will
have to reseed.. In some places re-
ported the barley is entirely frozen
out while on other ranches the dam
age was inflicted in spots and but
partial reseeding will be necessary.
Reports indicate no damage was in
flicted on the growing wheat and that
the damage to barley is confined to
the southern part of the reservation
and to the section in the region of
Pilot Rock. In some portions of the
frozen belt barley is the chief crop
and the loss will be felt by the farm
ers. However they will still have an
opportunity to secure a crop by re-
seeding.
1t is the belief of Tom Thompson,
prominent reservation farmer. that
the damage was inflicted on the night
when terrific wind blew and there
was no snow upon the ground to pro-
tect the grain. On Mr. Thompsons
place about one-third of the growing
barley was hurt and the damage will
be light as wheat is the chief crop
and that wheat was not injured.

place in the Fourteenth district with
Columbia and Garfield. Walla Walla

il designed to bolster up the present
fruit inspection law in which many
important changes are made. The
senate passed the bill without a dis
senting vote. The senate also passed
five other minor measures. The
house passed Senator Metcalf's bill
under which any city in the state may
operate cold storage plants as well as
CITY markets. The house also passed
the bill providing for carrying out the
