In this stock solution the ingredi-
ents are still highly concentrated
and the emulsion must be well dl-
luted before being applied to the
plants. One part Of the emulsion
to 40 or so parts Of water is about
the right proportions. 1t is applied
by drawing the earth slightly away
from the plants to be treated, thrust
ing them over to one side, and
pouring enough around the stem OF
each plant to wet it down as far as
the insects have travelled. This can
be determined by pulling up and
examining a few plants after treat
ment.

FARM USES OF AUTOS.

Use Of automobiles on the farm Is
becoming much wider than was
at one time thought possible.
BY means Of a removable or con-
vertible real seat the capacity of the
car is increased SO that 1t holds con-
siderable quantities Of ~perishable
farm produce for the city market or
emergency supplies for the farm.
Perishable fruits and vegetables can
be put on the market much earlier
in the day by the use Of a good
convertible farm auto, and they will
be in much better condition. In case
farm machinery breaks down and
several men are temporarily put out
of employment. the repairs can be
rushed in by means of telephone and
automobile. Some farmers are also
using their automobiles to run the
silo-filling machinery. and accord
ing to Professor w. A. Barr. Fed

wheels are lacked up and the driv-
ing belt is run on one Of them. Of
course depreciation on machines thus
used Is greater than on those used
merely for riding about in, but or
the other hand interest and upkeeI
charges are much less on n ma

visibility Of thus using farm auto!

must be determined by each farmel

twelve months, beginning November,
1914. Every creamery man who
wishes to learn the good and the

Is invited to arrange with the de-
partment to have his product en-
tered and scored in this exhibit. A
number Of application cards have
been sent out, but should any mar
interested fail to receive his card
he should write to the Dairy de-
partment for another.
Entries for the butter exhibit shall
consist Of a 20-pound cubical pack

20 to 25-pound cheese not less than
IL inches in diameter. Entrymen
are to prepay express charges on all
entries. After being scored the pro-
duct will be sold on the market and

PLACE OF DOMESTIC ART
IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL

EHE materials and the work of
domestic arts in the schools are
connected directly with the ma
terials and work in the home. Hence
the domestic arts course not only
contributes to the aims Of universal
education, but likewise to the arts
and science of home making
Throughout the entire course, as
planned for the public schools of
Oregon by Mrs. Brooks, professor
of domestic arts at the Agricultural
College, the work is carried along
two lines that supplement each
other-subject matter and problems
of construction. Since the principles
of art and design are constantly
used in working out the problems,
the aesthetic nature Of the children.
along with their practical and intel
lectual endowments, is undergoing
steady and natural development.
All work in this course is deter
mined and guided by an underlying
principle or idea. The purpose OF
the technique Of sewing, garment
making, care and furnishing Of girls
rooms, house planning and furnish
ing, study of textiles, use Of money,
and other problems involved in eff
cient housekeeping, is to impart to
pupils ideas and ideals, standards
and guiding principals. experience
and methods. as permanent assets in
their lives.
Hand work Is not to be intro
duced as a unity Of ITSELF" says
Mrs. Brooks, but in close relation
to the other work Of the grade
Thus employed it vitalizes the entire
course, and brings the child direct.
into contact with the world, wher'
she may realize the relation of al
the work of the school to all thu

standing her relation to society sh'
becomes a better citizen as a pro

PROFIT AND LOSS IN HOGS.


GeVMITH the exception of chick
ems, hogs are the most num-
erous of all farm animals"
says DR.. Virgil Knowles, Federal and
Agricultural College expert in hog
cholera, in discussing this matter
before the farmers, land they are
grown for market on more farms
than any other stock. Hog raising
has probably made more clear money
for the corn farmer than has any
other industry.
"In Oregon the hog raising in
dustry is just in its infancy. With
the large areas in the fertile valleys
Of the state which are adapted to
the growth of clovers and other
plants valuable as pasture for hogs,
and the various grains on which to
finish them, a great many hogs will
be grown in the future than are be-
ing grown at the present time and
the profits should be as great as or
greater than profits in the grain
belt.
Unfortunately this industry in
common with all other profitable
pursuits has its disadvantages and
losses. The most important loss
factor which we must contend with
in regard to profits and losses in
the hog raising industry Is hog
cholera.
1.-THE country is now passing
through its third serious epidemic
Of hog cholera Of the last thirty
years. The heaviest losses of the
first epidemic in 1897 were 100 for
every thousand hogs. In the second
outbreak the losses were about 140
per thousand. The present epidemic
became serious in 1911 and grad
ually increased until 1918, when the
loss reached lot per thousand. The
estimated loss In the United States
from this hog cholera epidemic in
1913 was sixty-five million dollars
No other disease produces such
loss of animals. and in view of the
high cost Of living, such enormou:
losses are nothing short Of a calam
ity. Since a large share Of this los
was borne by Oregon farmers. it Il
evident that they can we'll afford tt
lend their hearty cooperation in tn
campaign to end hog cholera in thi
state"

OFFICIAL TESTS ADD VALUE.

OFFICIAL TESTS AID
ARTIFICIAL tests are now thougn1
" to be almost essential to profit
able business in breeding pure
bred dairy cattle. The man that buys
breeding stock today demands pro-
duction back of it, and this pro-
duction can be guaranteed in no
other way. That these buyers are
willing to pay for a record Of hign
production in their dairy stock 10
shown by reports Of sales recently
collected by Professor Graves, head
of the O. A. c. Dairy department, az
follows: The average price OF III
non-record cows at auction was $2SS.
and the average price OF record
cows Of practically the same breed
ing was $465; and the average
price of 1874 heifers with non-record
dams was 5000. and the average
price of 1913 heifers of the same
breeding with record dams was
$3l1. This shows conclusively the
great increase of value added to
dairy stock by the official tests. The
practice is gaining in Oregon but no
more than a small proportion OF
Oregon pure-bred cattle breeders
have taken 1t up.
