Oregon Dairymen Should Raise Their
Own Calves.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis, June 21,-"There is only one
practical way for the dairymen to in
crease the herd and that is to raise
his own calves" said Professor C. H.
Eckles, professor of dairy husbandry,
University of Missouri, when speak
ing before the dairymen's conven-
tions during the Farmers Week at
the Oregon Agricultural College.
You can't buy good stock. Heifers
should be raised with a good deal of
care and attention. You say it costs
too much. But believe that under
any ordinary conditions you can not
afford not to do it.
"They say about one COW out of
every three is not going to be a prof
table animal. But success of the
dairy farmer depends to no slight ex-
tent upon the careful rearing of the
calves. The careful dairyman sees
in every heifer calf the possibility of
a COW that will not only replace dis
carded member of his herd, but help
to raise the average production. By
proper care in the choice of the sire,
and by careful attention to the rear
ing of the calves, the dairyman who
is compelled to start with herd of
ordinary quality may, within few
years, raise the average of produc-
tion of his herd to marked extent.
On the other hand, carelessness in
breeding and in calf raising is bound
to result disastrously to a herd, or at
least to keep it at standstill as far
as Improvement is concerned"

j. L. wilkins is a philanthropist.
That stunt he performed on Tuesday
of covering the crossings on Main
and May streets with sand was just
the thing to abate the oil nuisance.
The last oiling of the streets has
failed to properly assimilate the dust
and the stuff adheres to your soles
and is carried onto walks and inside
business houses to such an extent as
to be annoying. This condition will
undoubtedly be past in few more
days.
