HAY For Steers.

At the Kansas experiment station al.
faifa hay, sorghum hay and Kaffir nay
were compared as roughages for fat
fening steers says Kansas Farmer. II
was found that when alfalfa hay was
fed 1t took only about six pounds OF
corn and cob meal to produce a pound
of gain, while when sorghum was feu
it took H. pounds of corn and cob
meal to produce pound of gain. The
figures for the Kaffir hay were ten
pounds of the meal for a pound of
gain. Experiments at other stations
indicate that under similar conditions
Il would take about nine pounds of the
corn and cob meal to make a pound of
gain when clover and timothy hay were
the roughage. Judging from the ex-
periments we would place a valuation
ON sorghum and Kafflr hay of about
two-thirds as much per ton as we
would on clover and timothy hay mix
ed. Coarse stalked or sour Kaffir or
sorghum hay would not be worth near
ly this much. From personal expert
ence we know that cattle relish sof.
ghum hay and make fairly good gains

Profits In Celery.

Celery growing lis a profitable way
for handling a portion of the modern
garden The plant Is always in de
mand in the home and foreign mar
kets. There has never been cry OF
OverproductiOn. The tables of rich
and poor alike call for celery as often
as it can be obtained 1t has so many
medicinal virtues that every family
welcomes its use and insists on hay
ing it DIN the bill of fare. The nervous
woman asks for celery and the weak
man demands it whenever possible.
Children want celery as a tonic and
appetizer 1t supplies the demand for
green food when all ordinary spring
vegetables are out of season.
There is money in celery culture.
One man residing i'm the aYdma val
ley of Washington discovered its COM
mercial value by accident. He had
lived in the same house for fourteen
years and left a portion of his five !
acre tract in native sage brush. Some
Japanese gardeners saw the oppor-
tunity for utilizing the lowlands for
celery. They leased the tract, cut
away the brush and put the Land in
condition. When the crop was planted
and in fair condition both gardeners
became sick and wene carried to the |
hospital. They abandoned the celery |
and the owner of the land cared for |
the crop. When the autumn came on
he fundo its real value, for it brought
him almost $4,000 am acre.
Celery is easily grown. 1t has no
great secrets to master. Amy cata-
logue, issued for free distribution, by
reputable seedsmen, gives full in
struction on varieties to plants, time
to get the seed how to make a bed
and reset the plants. 1t gives rules
for cultivation and harvesting and
how to prepare for market.
When the crop is ready for selling
one-half of the battle is over. Then
the grower must find the market,
crate and ship his celery and COLLECT ,
The money. That constitutes the bust /
ness part Of the work. Get the bust {
less end of the crop mastered and L
success is certain.-Joel Shoemaker i'm

Co. I Wins
Championship
Company | of the Idaho National
Guards are Best Marksmen In the
State.

Company l of the Idaho National
Guards, during the recent rifle shoots
which have been in progress for the
past few weeks, have wen the State
Championship for best shots. They
have been competing against all the
different companies in the state and
have won all but one match.
The boys feel justly proud of their
record Many members of the local
company have only recently enlisted
and were very inexperienced, Yet their
record shows good work. Not only
are they the best shots, but their att
tendance shows up the best, the laTg-
est attendance in amy single week
being sixty-nine.
The standing of the company is:
Company of Payette, 909 per ct.
Company B of Nampa, S1S per ct.
Company H. of Boise, 634 per ct.
The total number Of points are:
Company of Payette, 1909.
Company B of Nampa, 4776.
Company H of Boise, 4203.
We are of the opinion, that when
Company 1 gets to Mexico, Huerta
will wish that he had complied with
Pres. Wilson's demands If the boys
do get to go, we may rest assured
that they will make short work of
the greasers.

Effect Of Oats on Flavor of MIX

Effect Of Oats on Flavor of Milk
1t has been asserted by some dairy.
men that the feeding of crushed oats
TO COWS will improve the flavor of
milk. To ascertain the correctness of
this theory a series of experiments
was made by the Bureau of Animal
Industry of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture at the expert
mental dairy farm at Beltsville, Mary
land. Six cows were used in the ex--
pertinent; three We're fed a grain
ration OF corn meal, bran and cotton
seed meal. The other three were fed
grain mixture of five parts crushed
oats one part cottenseed meal. A
number of samples of milk from the
COWS fed these rations were submittee
to yanious persons in the dairy di--
vision and they were asked to in
dicate their preference. I'm all SO
opinions were passed on various
samples. OF these, 16 showed a pre-
ference for the milk from COWS fed
On crushed oats, 25 preferred that
from the bran and corn ration, while
nine expressed no choice. The result |
shows that in these nations, not only
was there mo marked difference in
favor of the crushed oats as feed
to improve flavor, but, If anything,
The ration containing bran and corn
was more successful In producing
Inc Favored milk.
