when handled intelligently.
Future Plans and Needs. Further
experimental work is needed along
the lines Of ventilation in poultry

work satisfactorily without more or

Farmers Poultry Houses. The
most economical style of poultry
house to build in the northwest is an
simpor problem which should be
solved. In recent years we have re-
ceived many inquiries as to the use

all the hay they will clean up. The
amount of silage is small because Of a
shortage Of that feed this winter We
feed all the cows will clean up and not
gain in weight while giving milk The
above ration varies somewhat with the
animal according to her individual
needs. The rations are calculated ac-
cording to Hackers Feeding Stand
ards.
Beef Cattle. The beef herd is only
in its infancy as yet which prevents
experimental work in care and feeding
Of beef stock. A Hereford COW, an
Angus COW, and heifer comprise the
beef herd at present. These animals
are used for class work It is planned
!! to increase the beef herd as rapidly
I as possible and do experimental work
along that line.
Hogs. There are kept at this Sta
| ton two breeds Of hogs, comprising
| the two types The Duroc Jerseys
represent the lard type and the I'm
proved Yorkshires represent the ba-
con type We find that the one great
factor in economical feeding of hogs
during the summer is pasture. Oats
and peas planted at the rate Of two
bushels of peas to one of oats per
acre makes an early spring pasture.
Fall rye is earlier but not so good.
Rape also makes a good hog pasture.
Hogs which have good range in a
Ipasture will be much thriftier stronger
lof limb and freer from disease than
those kept IN a small pen, and. their
gains less costly During the cold win
ter months the house is kept as dry
as possible. Gold does not injure hogs
that are kept dry nearly as much as
| those kept in damp place.
/ Silos. Two types Of silos we're built
in 1911. One is solid wall concrete
si1o and the other is a hollow clay
1 block si1o. Both are substantially
built and are serviceab1e. Plans and
i specifications for each type can Be

Horses. One team of pure bred
Percheron brood mares has been Sc
cured for breeding purposes.
OF these one mare is a Percheron
of excellent type. Next season a
Percheron stallion will in e. probabili-
ty be kept at the station for breeding
purposes. It is planned to breed up
a good strong type Of draft horses.
Sheep. The flock OF breeding ewes
numbers about forty, four Of which
are pure bred Shropshires, bred to

pure bred Shropshire The sheep pro-
ject is proving very profitable and
successful. Lack of space prevents a
fuller description Of the feeding, care
and management Of the station ami
mails. Further experimental work of
an extended nature is planned in con-
Inection with these projects in the
| future. &S .5
Future Plans and Needs. The FIJI
ture plans of this department. are to
continue grading and breeding up the
cattle, sheep, and horses and to in
crease as rapidly as possible the mum
bers of pure bred animals Larger
and larger numbers of pure bred and
| high grade animals are being distri-
buted each year. The beef project is as
lyet in an undeveloped stage. It will re
ceive our especial attention this com
ing year or as soon as suitable room
can be provided. At the present time
Y the hog barn is totally inadequate for
the work along that line that should
be done. III

LIVE STOCK WORK
Fifteen cows were MIXED during the
entire year of 1912, ten Of which were
mature that is, they had completed at
least one years 1actation before the
beginning of the year Their average
record during 1912 was sol pounds of
butterfat and 1926 pounds of milk
Five of the fifteen that were MIXED
during 1912 were heifers their first
years record. Including them the
average yield of milk per COW was
6oSS pounds and Of butter fat POI
pounds In 1909, 10 mature cows and
4 heifers made an average of 5945
pounds Of milk and 229 pounds of but
ter fat. The records show a material
gain.
This gain is due to two main. causes
First, by the breeding up process
better type of dairy cows has been
produced This has been accomplish
ed by the use of pure bred sires with
records that show high milk and fat

producing qualities in their ancestors
Such sires have been kept at the head
of the herd since 1907, changing every
two years. The results are convinc-
ing.
Second, we believe the feeding Of
1912 had marked effect upon the
years record. The cows we're we'll
applied with green forage just as soon
as the pasture began to fail. Soiling
crops consisting Of oats and peas
sorghum, and corn were planted in
successive paintings which provided

We have at present the following
classes Of dairy stock in the herd.
Pure bred and grade Ho1steins and
pure bred and grade Shorthorns, and
pure bred Jerseys. A comparison OF

interest, although too much weight
should not be attached to it. Each
breed varies in itself too much for
