Too Much Roughage May
Be Dangerous for Cows

"NoN'T make the mistake of overwork-
ing the COW by asking her to han
die too much %roughage," was the sugges-
ton of Mr.. Ira p. Whitney when describ-
ing to the Jersey Breeders Association
the system of feeding at the famous
Waikiki farm near Spokane, Wash.
There is a limit to her storage ca
pacity. Give her as much roughage as
she can manage readily, then supply the
balance of her ration in the form of con-
eentrates.
ITO the dairyman who is growing
wheat, oats and barley, and I believe
nearly every dairyman in this valley
should be doing so, I would suggest that
you market them through the dairy COW.
If she can't handle them for you at a
profit, sell her.
Don't act too quickly on my advice at
the present time, for ! realize that grains
of all kinds have SCARED out of sight, but
this condition will not last always, and
with normal prices for grain the dairy
COW should be able to handle them at a
profit for you.
Bran and shorts are good but the de-
mand is forcing the prices up and the
quality down, and would prefer to grind
the grains as they are produced on the
farm.
"Linseed oil meal. soybean meal and
other feeds rich in protein can be used
to advantage, especially with heavy pro-
ducers, but If used to excess they will do
a great deal more harm than good. Peas
grown and threshed with oats is an ex-
cellent source of protein when well
ground, and no dairyman is justified in
buying feed when he can produce it at
less cost at home"

Catching Pocket Gophers.

G. F.. Sykes, professor of Zoology, Ore
gon Agricultural College, contributes the
following interesting and very timely in
formation concerning the western pocket
gopher which IS a common pest through
out the western aid southern parts of the
state:
The gopher is a subterranean animal
and spends almost its entire life burrow-
ing about under the ground roofing up
lawns and fields and feeding on roots of
grass, grains and vegetables. 1t has a
particularly pernicious habit of gnawing
off young fruit trees from six to 10 inches
under the surface of the ground.
Not only is the pocket gopher a cave
~dweller, but he dwells alone with the
exception of a few days during the Spring
season when he leaves his burrow under
cover of the darkness and makes a still
hunt for a mate whom he deserts almost
as soon as the nuptial season is over.
This habit offers advantages for apply
ing control measures which the farmer
cannot afford to overlook. Now is the
time to trap. The usual efforts to COM
bat by poisoning should not be discon-
tinued, but trapping should by all means
be done at this time.

Holding Cream Too Long
Is Cause of Poor Butter

UI AM fully convinced that the prac-
! tice Of holding the cream in order
to reduce hauling expenses contributes
more toward the production of second
class butter than any other factor" was
the emphatic statement of ]. D. Mickle,
Oregon Dairy and Food Commissioner,
when speaking before the State Dairy As
ISOLATION during the 0. A. c. Farmers
Week.
This is a most serious question for
every dairyman in Oregon and | regret
the fact that these who never attend dairy
meetings or dairy conventions are usually
the ones who need to give the subject
the greatest amount of attention.
But the fault does not lie entirely with
the dairymen, for the scarcity of Oregon
dairy produce together with the expense
of added freight or express charges to
imported products had a strong tendency
to foster some of the bad methods of Ore
gon dairy and creamery men.
Good butter cannot be made from
poor cream and poor butter should have
no place as a product of this state. But
as long as our creameries will accept an
inferior cream upon the same basis as a
good cream and through skillful methods
of manufacture attempt to overcome the
bad work of the dairymen and pass on to
the consumer an article of short life, Just
so long will poor butter be offered for
sale. On the other hand make a none
tary distinction in the grades of cream
and just watch the producers work to
get into the first class"

Peas and Oats.

Farmers who have failed to SOW a suffi-
cient amount of vetch and oats last Fall
so they are short of green feed and for
age pasture, cow hay, or Summer silage,
will find field peas and oats one of the
best crops for Spring sowing for these
purposes.
Peas are an excellent substitute for
vetch and oats, which as a rule, do not
do we'll when sown in the Spring. For
best results field peas must be seeded
Just as early as possible, preferably in
fact before the 18th of March. They
should be drilled in at the rate of two to
2 IL bushels per acre, three or four
inches deep, followed about ten days
later with one and one-half bushels of
oats drilled over the peas cross-wise to a
depth Of about one and one-half inches.

Swine Management,

Bulletin No. 191 on Swine Management
has just been issued by the Extension Di-
vision of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. This is a popular bulletin, written
by G, R. Samson of the animal husbandry
department, dealing with the different
phases of the swine industry, particularly
with reference to Oregon conditions.
Among the subjects considered are To-
cality, the farm, the man, houses and
necessary equipment, miscellaneous
equipment, number of pigs for the farm,
adaptability of pigs to different types of
farming, market considerations, points
for selecting farm swine, care and man
agement of brood sows, calculating ra-
tions, feeding the growing pig and feed
ing for market, methods of feeding, and
a short treatment of raising pure-bred
swine.
The bulletin contains 43 pages and in
cludes several drawings of useful equip
ment for the swine raiser. Experimental
work is not reviewed nor mentioned in
this bulletin except insofar as results may
be applied by the treatment of the subject
matter in hand.
The records of experimental feeding
work conducted by the station in recent
years will appear in bulletin soon to be
issued but not yet out of the printers
hands.
Bulletin No. 191 may be had by those
interested by writing the Oregon Agricul-
tural College, Corvallis, Oregon.

Recent Experiment With
Alfalfa M0lasses Meal

PROFESSOR r. R. Graves, Of the De-
i partment of Dairy Husbandry, Ore
gon Agricultural College, reports the re-
suits of an interesting experiment made
to determine the relative economy and
efficiency in milk production by replac-
ing the grain ration with alfalfa molasses
meal.
Two lots of cows were selected, each
lot containing four animals, all being
as nearly equal as possible in age and
period of lactation. The COWS in both
groups were fed a balanced ration con-
sisting of practically all of the alfalfa
hay they would eat, 80 pounds of corn
silage, and one pound Of grain equivalent
to each four pounds of milk produced
daily.
One lot of cows were used as a check.
For the other lot during the second ten
day period, one-third Of the digestible nu-
trients of the grain ration were replaced
by an amount Of alfalfa molasses meal
sufficient to give the same amount pound
for pound of digestible nutrients.
The third ten days the substitution was
one-half. The fourth period the grain
was entirely dispensed with. The con-
illusions reached as a result of the expert
ment were briefly as follows:
First, that alfalfa molasses meal can
probably be used economically to sub
stitute one-half the digestible nutrients
in the grain mixture when its cost is not
more than 80 per cent Of the grain.
Second, it may be used as a substitute
to the extent of replacing one-half the
grain ration in a proportion of five parts
meal to four parts grain or nutritive value
pound for pound without affecting the
milk flow.
Third, when more than one-half is re-
placed the milk flow is checked.
Fourth, when more than one-half is
replaced under the combination used In
this experiment some cows fail to relish
the ration.

Poland China Hogs.

For early maturity or ability to pro-
duce a finished fat carcass at an early
age, no breed excels the Poland China,
thinks r. E. Reynolds, livestock extern
sion specialist of Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. Having been originated in a cern
state, Ohio, and developed on corn feeds,
it will probably stand heavy corr feeding
better than most other breeds and is a
general favorite with the corn belt
farmer.
1t is a typical American breed. In size
it generally ranks as medium, hardly av-
eraging up to the Berkshires, although
there is little difference. The earlier
types were freely marked with white. but
black is the fashionable color today with
white on face, feet and tip of tail.
A limited number of small white mark
ings On other parts are not seriously OBJ
jected to. Many breeders have gone to
extremes in the matter of selecting for
tineness of bone with the result that in
many cases they have evolved a hog that
lacks somewhat in size and fecundity.
This matter is receiving the attention
of many thoughtful breeders with the re-
suit that the overtime type is falling into
disfavor with the general farmer.

Farm Gardens Are Both
Valuable and Necessary

THAT farmers the state over are real
1 izing more and more the value and
necessity of a farm vegetable garden, was
stated recently by Professor A. G. Bou-
quet, section of Vegetable Gardening,
Oregon Agricultural College, in a talk
TO the Corvallis Grange.
Vegetables form a very important
part OF the diet of a healthy person and
many farm tables are poorly supplied
with them or have but a meager variety.
Personally l think the farm vegetable
garden is a reasonable and legitimate part
OF farm work. In actual value it exceeds
by three to five times the value of the
average farm crop. Unfortunately, how
ever, the real value of produce grown on
the place is seldom considered by our
farmers. 1t would be, however, If they
We're to live in the city for a few weeks
and have to purchase all the green stuff
they consume.
The farm vegetable garden should be
carefully planned and properly planted.
No hapha2ard 'throw-the-seed-in-the-
ground methods will suffice. The garden
shoul be regularly attended to the same
as other parts of the farm work."
A recent boys and girls industrial
club bulletin written by Professor Bou-
quet gives suggestive plans, varieties of
vegetables to plant, and dates and meth
DDS of proceeding. Although this bulle-
tin was written for boys and girls, 1t can
be profitably read by older persons.

Amply Land Plaster Now.

March is the time to broadcast land
plaster wei the clover, vetch and alfalfa
crops at the rate of from 40 to so pounds
per acre, the lower rate where the crop is
to be grown for seed. Land plaster does
not correct soil acidity. Neither is 1t a
fertilizer. 1t is a stimulant and hence
should be used only on the legumes and
on soils which have a good content of po-
tassium and PHOSPHORUS.

The WOMEN OF
HAMBURG DAILY
FEED ABOUT 10000
ASSOCIATED Press correspondence.l

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
Hamburg-ApriI 26-How to feed some
10000 persons, direct or indirect sufferers
of the war, quickly. cheaply and nour-
ishingly, is a problem for the solution of
to thank.
AS month has succeeded month. the
kitchens in Hamburg have increased in
number to Is, scattered in every part of
the city, located in schools, factories,
town halls and other buildings. In each
one, from 100 to so persons are fed at
least once each day. In a majority of
cases the kitchens have been managed
by volunteer women and girls.
The price per meal is Is pfennings Ia
little less than cents) and so carefully
has the whole work been systematiZel
that this sum exactly meets the cost.
Any one who is unable to pay this
amount can get the meal with a ticket
that is obtainable from charitable
sources.
Funds that set the war kitchen" I'M
derway and maintain it and its associat-
ed features are supplied partly by the
government, part by the state and city of
Hamburg. and partly by private sub
scription.
The menu at each meal in all the 40
kitchens is exactly the same, and served
at the same time. Fac. meal takes on
the character of a goulasch or stew.
popular in Hamburg under the name of
Cooked Together
In addition to these As institutions.
which in the main are intended to feed
adults, there are countless smaller kitch-
ems where light children's meals are
prepared for pupils. and domestic schools
of the state Of Hamburg feed 5000 chill
dren daily.
The meals Of course are the acme of
plainness, and are served in huge, steam
ing bowls. An Associated Press cor
respondent visiting Hamburg joined in
a somewhat motley throng Of war suf-
ferers-wives and widows Of soldiers and
men too old to go to the front-and found
the meal palatable and nourishing-and
the service excellent.
