" ESULTS OF experiments at the 7

u ESULTS OF experiments at the
State Agricultural College
with Lot I, in which kafir 81
lage was compared with corn silage,
indicate that the corn silage is slight
" superior to the siIage made OF
kafir for milk production, but the COWS
showed a loss in live weight when
changed from kafr to corn silage.
The increase of % pounds in milk
production in favor Of corn is very
slight for the lot, as this is the in
crease for six COWS for thirty days,
or less than one-sixth of pound of
milk per COW per day. The kafir 81
lage proved to be more fattening than
the corn silage
Cane and kafir silage were com
pared in Lot Il The results obtained
here are more striking than in the
other lots. Kair silage, according to
these results, is very much better
than cane for milk production. Com
pairing the production during the pc
RODS the COWS received cane silage
with the period they received kafir 81
lage, it is found that the five COWS
produced 231 pounds more milk on
the kafir silage than they did on the
cane siIage in thirty days. This
means about y pounds of milk per
COW ser day. The COWS made a very
slight gain in body weight while on
the cane silage-
Corn silage was compared with
cane silage in Lot III. Corn proved
superior to the cane siIage. When
the COWS were changed to cane silage
they declined in milk production in
] the second period, as shown in the
/ table. and when they we're changed
I back to the corn silage in the third
| period they showed a general increase
| in milk. While the COWS were on
! corn silage in the third period they
| each produced slightly more than
! one-half pounds more milk per day
| than they produced on cane silage.
! In this trial the COWS made very
| slight gain in live weight in favor OF
| the corn silage, but this is so small
| that it is negligible.
| In summing up the work of both
| trials the following conclusions may
| be drawn:
| Corn silage is slightly superior as
| a milk producer to silage made from
( kafir or cane.
| Kafr silage ranks second as a feed
! for milk COWS, as shown by the re-
! suits of the experiment.
Cane silage ranks third as a milk
! producer, according to the results

In both trials the cattle seemed
to gain in live weight on cane silage

Legislature. plans for improve
ment. The first step
towards betterment always consists in
Acknowledgement of the evil that ex.
lists. OF course nothing can be ex-
pected of this session but if the legis-
lators were really looking for scheme
of self reformation the East Oregon
ian would suggest something like this:
l. Abolish the state senate.
2. Reduce the membership of the
house by half.
8. Pay each representative an an
nual salary of not less than $1,000.
4. Abolish the use of party names
on legislative tickets.
5. Let the legislators meet annu-
ally and remain in session as long as
necessary.
6. Make il a criminal offence for
a member to propose any measure or
work for any measure for the ma
terial benefit of any business, profess
sion or industry with which he is con-
nected or by which he is employed or
retained.
7. Abolish logrolling by making it
a criminal offence for a member to
agree to favor any measure or to IA
for any measure in consideration of
similar support given a measure which
he is supporting.
S. Make it a criminal offence for
a member or a non-member to seek
to influence the action OF a member
financial or otherwise.
Q, Publish daily the Legislative
Record, giving a verbatim report Of
the legislatures proceedings and sell
the same to the general public at a
price based on the cost OF publication
These suggestions are hastily made
and doubtless contain many imperfec-
tions. Yet they would eliminate some
fragrant abuses If adopted. A single
legislative body with a small mem.
bership would concentrate responsi-
bility and raise the standard of men,
bership. The annual salary provision
and the elimination of party politics
at legislative elections would work
to the same end. Suggestion five
would insure due time for consider
ing legislation and with the legisla-
tors on flat salaries would cost the
state nothing extra. Suggestion six
would bar members who are not in
the legislature as legislators for the
people but as special agents for par
ticular interests. Suggestions seven
and eight would require that all mea-
sures be considered solely upon
their merits and would punish those
who try to tamper with the ma
chinery. The publication of the daily
record would make each members
Legislative career an open book for
his constituents.

Fortunate is the one who can eat
anything" without suffering the to-
lures of dyspepsia but as few are so
fortunate, care should be taken in
the matter OF diet. Eating slowly
masticating the food thoroughly and
taking a short walk after the heavy
meal of the day will do much towards
assisting digestion. Any grown-up
person ought to know the peculiar
foods that do not agree, and these
should be avoided.
When these common-sense aids
fail, the next thing to do is to take
mild digestive tonic with laxative
properties, and there is none better
than DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t
contains the greatest of all aids to
digestion, good pepsin. Il has other
ingredients that act mildly on the

Its action Is to tone and strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles so
that they can again do their work
