THE MARKETS


The egg market has been Hopping
around considerably lately due to the
fact that two cars of eastern eggs were
dumped on the Portland market few
days ago, causing decline of a few
cents just for a day or two. The lead
ing houses in the city buying eggs are
paying today so cents cash with SO
cents trade, and this has been their
price for several days. With the gov
ernment making the price for wheat,
there will be but little change in wheat
products.

Those who failed to get Strawberries

In September with assurance Of sue

Those planted in the early spring
will bear well next season, while those
planted In September will not yield
much of crop. as the plants do not
have as much chance to make Wig

that after the first year, the strawber-

continuing to do so longer.

1t pays to have the soil In excellent
condition. There ought to be quite a
lot of plants produced by runners from
the small number of everbearing plants
you may possibly have set out in the
spring, and these may be planted in a
new bed In September and they should
bear well next season up until frost

INDUCING CALF TO EAT HAY
Animal Should Be Given Glover or Al.
falfa as Soon as II Shows De.
sire for Rouehape.

As soon as the calf shows a desire
for roughage 1t should be given little
good hay, preferably clover or alfalfa.
Soon after little dry grain may be
placed in a box where the calf can eat
1t. Sometimes calves manifest de-
sire for grain at first, that will lead
them to eat too much of it, In which
case they may refuse it entirely and
give the feeder good deal Of trouble
Only very little grain should be CIV
en- the calf at first and the allowance
should be increased very slowly. al
ways being sure not to give too much.
Care should be used also not to feed
more hay than the animal will con-
sumo in from to 2 hours. The hay
the calf does not eat does 1t no good
and while it Is not so bad to feed hay
to excess as to feed too much grain, 1t
is entirely useless to do SO and should
be avoided.

MEASURE HEIGHT OF STACKS
Method illustrated to Ascertain Num-
Der Of Cubic Feet Contained
In Large Pile Of Hay.

To ascertain the number of cubic
feet in stack of hay involves the
height of the stack and which may
be determined by the following meth
cd: Two points are marked on the
ground on opposite sides of the rick
or stack and at nearly equal distances
from its center as possible. A cord is
then thrown over the stack, stretched
gently from the point A in the ac-
companying Illustration, over the top
of the stack to the point B, and marked
to show its length from A to b. The
cord Is then removed and placed on the
