BIG WHEAT YIELD

Twenty per cent increase over
last years wheat crop is the esti-
mate of the 1918 yield of the four
Pacific Northwest states, made by
the statistical department of the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce from
figures received from all wheat
growing sections.
The crop will be the largest in the
history of this section, weather con-
ditions having been ideal for a
bumper yield.
The chamber of commerce esti-
mates the 1913 wheat crop of the
county tributary to Spokane as
100, 10000 bushels, against 1OS,-
$500 bushels in 1912. About
$500, 900 acres are in wheat in
Washington, Oregon, Idaho and
Montana, the wheat belts of these
four states being in the territory of
which Spokane is the financial, COM
mercial and industrial center.
In many parts of the Big Bend
and Palouse districts yields of be-
tween 40 and 60 bushels to the acre
are reported.

TEACHING THE FARMER
The VALUE OF ALFALFA

One morning recently an educa-
tional automobile train started out
from Grand Rapids to make a farm
to-farm campaign in Kent County
to tell every farmer that alfalfa is
the most remarkable forage crop
and soil enricher known to man -,
and to show them in their own
fields the exact methods to be fol-
lowed to meet local conditions, says
the August Popular Mechanics Mag
azine, in an illustrated article.
The intention of the Agricultural
Extension Department of the Inter
national Harvester Company. which
has the campaign in hand, is to
make alfalfa as well and favorably
known east of the Mississippi as it
is now in Montana, Kansas, and
other western states. After the
campaign in Kent County, the
automobile train visited corn belt
counties in Michigan, Ohio and ILL.,
inois. 1t was shown throughout
the trip that on the typical sand
and clay loans east of the Missis-
sippi alfalfa could be raised, yield
ing three crops season and averag-
ing from four to five tons to the
acre; that it could be grown at a
cost of less than SIS ton, and yet
excel in feeding value, as a milk
producer, wheat bran costing over
500 ton; that it was twice as
cheap as corn in putting fat on
hogs, and yielded over twice az
much per acre as either red clover
or timothy.

GOING BACK TO WALLA WALLA

Nearly every person who ever
lived in Walla Walla, Wash, will
be back there for the big celebration
during the week of Sept. 22-27th.
Frontier Days exhibition and the
big Walla Walla County Fair is the
attraction that is pulling them home
ward and it will be real home.
coming week for all old timers.
The celebration itself will be some
thing out of the ordinary as it is
planned to reproduce as nearly as
possible to do 80 all of the early
historical happenings of that part
of the west, and as Walla Walla is
the oldest settled district in all the
old Oregon country, it means that
all things positively center there.
Trappers, miners, ranchers, pros
pectors, of the early days and their
descendants will be there in great
numbers, and many and novel will
be the doings of these old timers
and members of the new generation.
Many of our readers have some tie
that binds them to Walla Walla and
they will be amply repaid by secur-
ing full information regarding the
celebration that is to be held there
during the month of September.
The association is paying literally
for suggestions and information re-
garding historical events connected
with the great country of which
Walla Walla is the center, and if
any of our readers can offer sugges-
tons of value, they should commu-
nicate with the secretary, R. H.
Johnson, Walla Walla, Wash.

district, presaging farming of smaller
areas by better methods, is attested
by former Governor M. E. Hay,
who has just returned from five
days trip through the district.
| have never seen a year," said
Mr.. Hay, when good farming has
paid so well and poor farming so
poorly as in this years crop.
Those who have been able IT,
keep their land clear of weeds and
have farmed in a proper manner
will harvest from 20 to 40 bushels
per acre, while those who have not
farmed properly will not fare very
we'll.
I talked with many farmers and
find that that they all realize they
have been farming too large areas,
ana most OF them are going to cut
down their acreage and farm less
land but farm it much better. This
will leave much land available for
new people.
/ also found in many places the
farmers were blowing right up to
wheel tracks in the highways, level
ing the ground and sowing it to
crops. This tends to keep the
weeds down in the highways and
gives the farmers good pasturage, or
if they wish to let it stand, gives
them a hay crop.
SO far as the wheat crop is con-
cerned, the farmers in central Wash
ington certainly are doing their
share to increase the prosperity of
this section"

DODDER, AN ALFALFA
AND CLOVER PEST

The Washington State Expert
ment Station receives many inqui-
rles in regard to Dodder (Cuscuta) 4,
a troublesome weed of clover and
alfalfa fields. 1t is a near relative
OF the morning glory and sweet po-
tato and is sometimes called the
Love Vine, though from the stand
point of the alfalfa and clover its
love is of a whitening type. The
weed is not a native of America
but of Europe from whence it was
probably introduced in seed of grass
and other forage plants.

In Orchard and Field
q Happenings Of Moment to the Man Behind the Plow

Dodder is indeed a bad pest in
alfalfa and clover fields. The plant
has rather an interesting life from a
biological standpoint. Being a
Towering plant, it reproduces by
means of seeds, but bears no leaves,
or only abortive ones as will be
noticed and contains no green color
ing matter; therefore is obliged to
lead parasitical existence upon
other plants. The seeds of the dod-
der start their growth in the soil the
same as any other seed, the young
plant living upon the material of the
seed until it is about three or four
inches high when it commences to
slightly reach about until it comes
in contact with an alfalfa plant. It
then gives couple of turns around
the alfalfa, develops roots on its
lateral surface, which roots penetrate
the stem of the alfalfa, growing in
ward to the conducting tissues.
where there is good supply of food
which it can use. After getting
this foothold upon the alfalfa the
dodder dies below and is no longer
connected with the soil at all. From
this time on it obtains it's nourish-
ment from it's host" that is, the
alfalfa upon which it is living. The
plant flowers usually from July until
late fall, producing large numbers
Of seeds. Inasmuch as it grows
rapidly, reaching from host plant to
host plant to host plant, it causes
very serious trouble with these forage
crops. Its behavior upon clover
and many other plants is the same
as upon alIalIa.
There are two methods of treat
ment. AS soon as a patch is dis
cnvered in an alfalfa or clover field
it should be at once cut with a
sythe or sickle and the alfalfa, dod-
der and all removed and burned.
If the field has become badly in
fected, the only remedy is to pillow
it under and crop with something
other than a forage crop for year
or two until all the dodder seeds are
terminated.
Glover or alfalfa should never be
used for seed if there is dodder in
the field and great care should be
exercised in the purchase of seeds
of these two crops to see that they
are not contaminated with dodder,
which they frequently are. The
department of botany of the State
College will test seeds free of charge
and there is no occasion for allow
wing field to become infected in
this manner.

WHY NOT MORE HOGS?


A few DAYS ago a carload of hogs
arrived at the Portland Union Stock
Yards by rail from Condor, Ore,
the consignors being the Gilman
French Company, of The Dalles,
the hogs coming from that COM
nanv's Prairie ranch in Wheeler,
County, this ranch being located a
few miles southeast of Fossil.
These hogs sold for 1910 per
hundred pounds, and the carload.
consisting of 80 head, brought the
shippers s1,395.95, after payment
Of freight and sales expenses. The
manager Of the Gilman-French
ranch states that the grain fed to
these hogs to fatten them amounted
to about 725 bushels, which at the
market price at the time of ship
ment, about 70 cents per busheI,
sums up to s529.25. But from this
must be subtracted the price of 800
grain sacks at 1O9 cents each and
hauling the grain to market, the
haul surely being worth Is cents a
bushel for the 35-mile haul.
Deducting such items, we find
these hogs were fed, in the fatten-
ing stage, grain worth S383.75. To
this, however, should be added, to
make the comparison complete, the
cost of hauling the hogs to Condor.
The hogs averaged in weight about
is pounds each, or Is, $50 pounds.
The 725 bushels of wheat fed them
weighed 1880 pounds, so there
was saving in hauling of practical
ly $4,000 pounds.
As pigs and shoats these hogs
were fed chopped wheat, barley and
corn and ground alfalfa; perhaps
such feed would amount to 50 per
head. Deducting this sum, 1910,
from the net amount found above,
it will be seen that there was good
profit in the grain fed. Mr.. Cooper
says the usual estimate that grain
fed to hogs will fetch 81 per bushel
is far too low. Certainly the figures
bear him out.
One of the pleasing features dis
cernible in the wheat regions is an
increasing interest in feeding grain
instead of marketing it in the raw.
Many wheat-growers are feeding
their wheat and barley to cattle and
sheep, making good returns there
by-much better than if they hauled
their grain to market. This is par
ticularly true where the haul is long
and the roads not of the best.
The one drawback in much of the
area where grain is grown is the lack
of water. Without a good supply
of running water hograising is prac-
tically impossible. On the other
hand, sheep take very little water
and can be driven to it quite a dis
lance. Cattle take more water, but
can be driven farther. To drive
hogs any distance to water is out of
the question.
Several large ranches in Sherman.
Gillian and Morrow counties are
equipped with wells and gasoline
engine pumps. With a good well
and plenty of water, the hog bust
ness means prosperity tar beyond
that now reigning in those sections.
Every we'll sunk is an asset worth
while for the community. It seems
practicable for several landowners
to join together and sink a cooper
ative well, piping the water to a
central point or to their various
farms. Even a 3OO-foot well, equip
ped with pumping apparatus COM
plete, costs something like $500.
That sum does not seem prohibitive
where four or five farmers can join
IN its ownership.-Oregonian.

Amount of Water For Cows.
The ordinary milk cow should drink
from ten to fifteen gallons Of water a
day. For each gallon of milk cow re-
quires about four and one-half gallons
of water.
