FARMERS, RANCHfRS' and
FRUIT GROWERS COLUMN

Observations of the development OF
white leghorn pullets at the poultry
plant of the Washington Experiment
Station, reveal certain suggestive facts
relative to the rate at which the birds
reach maturity and begin to lay. Leg
horns that were Matched in March and
April, not forced, culled, and allowed
to come in naturally, produced from
ten to twenty FIVE per cent layers in
October. By November, twenty-five
to thirty-three per cent Of them were
laying. In December the layers ran
from the latter percentage to fifty per
cent. Pullets crowded in the latter
part Of February and March, slumped
in egg production in May. 1t was ex-
tremely difficult to get them to laying
again for the summer. An abundance
of green stuff fed in June and July
helped along egg production in August.
The majority of the hens that con-
tinued to lay thru July, August, and
into September had been Matched
early the preceding year, the obvious
reason being that the early Matched
chickens developed better, and came
into laying in more vigorous .condi-
ton than did the late matches.
The heavy breeds laid fewer eggs
during the setting and Matching season
than did the leghorns, being more
"broody" than the leghorns, and their
laying being interrupted by trying to
set. However, in late October, and
even into November, many Of the
heavy birds had come into vigorous
laying, whereas the leghorns that had
been laying so vigorously during the
summer quit laying.

BIG PROFIT IN CATTLE
On Investment of $4,000 Yakima Man
Realized $4,000. Receives $4,000
for Sc Head of iOISteinS

H. c. Davis, president of the Union
bank Of Granger, Wash, was in Spo-
kane Monday on business and Incl
dentally related to w. D. Vincent,
cashier of the Old National Bank, his
recent experiences in the live stock in
dustry. Mr.. Davis specializes in Hol-
stein.
His first investments in cattle
amounted to 10000, and on that in
vestment he sold cattle that brought
him $4,000. In addition to these,
he recently sold sc head for the record
price of $4,000, which CONSTITUTES
the highest average, little better than
$4,000 per animal, ever received in
the country for thoroughbred holsteins.
THE important factor to the people
of the Inland Empire in this sale is not
the price received" said Mr.. Vincent
yesterday, but the fact that the 80 of
the &c blooded animals were bought by
stock raisers in the Yakima valley alone
and will be kept in the valley to ex-
tend the stock industry of that section.
The growth of the industry in the In
land empire is wonderful the last few
years and the propagation of live stock
is vastly more important than alfalfa
because the latter is useless if there
are no cattle to eat it.

Price of Meat Will Go Higher

Gentlemen of the Northwest will
continue to receive a big price for
their cattle. The removal Of the duty
on meat is not going to reduce the
cost TO the consumer according to DR..
A. D. Melvin, Chief Of the Bureau Of
Animal Industry. He has just returned
from a trip to South America. He
SAYS the American beef trust has Sc
cured control of the foreign meat sup
ply including that of Australia and Ar
gentine, and that the foreign meat will
not come to the Uuited States at a de-
creased cost. 1t will be shipped by
the trust to other countries hence will
not come in competition with Ameri-
can beef. DR.. Melvin says there is no
hope at present for a reduction in our
meat cost. On the contrary, he ex-
pectes to see it increase. The cattle
of the United States are diminishing
each year while our population is on
the increase. If the view of DR.. Mel
vim is correct and he is regarded as an
authority all the cattle dealers Of the
Northwest have to do is to sit back
and fix the price for their cattle and
the butcher will have to pay his price
or go without meat.

1914 WHEAT ACREAGE
Present Conditions Indicate a Record
Breaking Yield of Wheat In 1914

Hyman H. Cohen, the wheat ex-
pert, says: The promise for the 1914
crop Of winter wheat in Oregon, Idaho
and Washington, is by long odds the
best in the history OF the industry.
Not only has there been a very heavy
increase in the acreage sown to fall
grain but the yield per acre promised
at this time is beyond all previous
years. The present crop can safely be
considered perfect from every stand
point, and even after deducting the
usual loss during the growing season,
the 1914 crop will be record breaker.
Washington leads with an increase
OF 214, 900 acres Of winter wheat.

SERVICE HELPS STATE
 HIGHWAY
BUILDS SECTION ROAD BETWEEN THE TOWNS OF FLAGSTAFF AND WILLIAMS
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

(From Tuesdays Daily.)
 The forest service has recently completed a portion of the east and west Arizona State highway, which practically parallels the Santa Fe railroad tracks between Flagstaff and Williams, and lies entirely within the Coconino national forest The work completed consists of approxi- mately eleven miles of highway, sev- en of which are surfaced with vol canic cinders. The construction work is in conformity with the Ari- zona State highway specifications.
 The amount expended by the for est service on this project was ap- proximately S2l,0O0, the average cost per mile of finished road being s. 200, while the cost per mile of un- surfaced roadway was Sl,4l0 Co., conino county has done consider able work on this highway between Bellemont, where the forest service work ends, and Williams, and it IS understood that the board of su- pervisors intend completing the en- tire project by May 1, 1914.
 Prior to the construction of a portion of this highway between Flagstaff and Riordan, the old road was almost impossible during sever Of tn of the composition of the soil. which is of red clay nature, and the lack of drainage Construction work was very difficult in this vi- cinity, due to the fact that 1t was mostly of a side-hill character, and the presence of malpais rock, which made excavation very expensive. The highway traverses generally through heavily timbered country and open parks. This fact, together with the proximity of the famous San Francisco peaks, made the see mic effects along the highway un- surpassed throughout the entire Southwest. The drainage system, in which corrugated galvanized iron culverts are used, Is complete in every respect.
 Aside from being of great benefit to the towns of Flagstaff and Will Hams, and settlers in the. vicinity, the highway will doubtless be trav- eled extensively by transcontinental tourists. For the latter reason par .icular1y, the county board is ex- tending its best efforts to complete the highway, in order that it may be in the best of condition prior 10 the anticipated traffic which will un doubtedly occur during the Panama exposition in San Francisco in 1915.
