s.s' -.s-. / s Season Closes

Crater Lake season closed last
might The hotels at both the upper
and lower camp were closed for the
season and the services of the sum-
mer park employees was dispensed
with.
AS this Is the best month of the
year at the lake. and the weather
there large part of September is
beautiful, a number of visitors will
probably yet visit the lake before
Iprohibitive weather sets in The
road and trail building work will be-
continued until winter weather pre-
vents.
The attendance at the lake this
year up to Friday has numbered H.
366 persons, which is less than the
number who visited the wonder re-
sort last season. However, the num-
ber Of autos entering the park was
much larger than last season.
The decreased attendance to the
lake this summer and fall is attrib-
uted chiefly to the forest fires and
smoke in the vicinity of Crater Lake
park.
The attendance this season up to
Friday by the various entrances was
as follows:
Medford entrance, autos 1887,
people 5,913.
Southern entrance, autos 937,
people 1858.
Eastern entrance (estimated), au-
tos 400, people 1000.
Total autos, 2,674; total people,
1896.

Baker, Ore.: Fruit is being thrown
away because there is no market for
it, according to reports reaching here
from Long Creek, in the John Day
valley. Although Long Creek is not
known as fruit section, there are
many orchards there, and this year
the production far exceeded local con-
sumption. The principal waste is
said to be in apples and peach plums,
which are being allowed to rot on the
trees The community is so far from
a market that transportation charges
do not warrant shipping.

zio Guerrieri.
To be able to present stars of the
Metropolitan, Boston National, Chi
cago National, Havana, Montreal and
Covent Garden Grand Opera COM
panies at popular prices is a man
agerial achievement that should be
welcomed by opera lovers of the west.

Sessue Hayakawa and his wife,
Tsuru Aoki, are on location at Bear
Valley, Cal. Sessue postcards to a
friend that the fish are biting fine
and that he is, catching the limit
every day. His wife postcards to an
other friend, saying they are tired Of
ham and eggs, and begs that she send
some fresh fish by parcel post imme-
diately. Evidently Sessue and Tsuru
are co-starring, but not cooperating
in their correspondence.

Self-Feeder Profitable for Fattening

IlRSs
There is no advantage in skimping
the pig when 1t comes to fattening
him, the United States Department
Of Agriculture points out During
the growing periods of his life, pas
lures with little grain we're in order,
for scale and constitution were the
main objects to be obtained The
last few weeks before butchering the
idea is to lay on a good covering Of
fat, to increase the proportion of
high-priced lard and to add tender
ness and palatability to the meat. A
fat hog sells to much better advan-
tage on the market for these very
reasons.
To add this fat rapidly and most
economically we must feed an abund-
ance of grain. The self-feeder is sim
ply device to keep before the pigs
a constant supply of feed, in order
that they may eat of such feeds in
such quantities, as they desire.
A brief resume of results obtained
by experiments with over 275 hogs,
part Of them self-fed and the balance
hand fed in the best possible manner,
shows:
First, that in comparison with the
handled pigs, the self-fed pigs ate
grain 19 per cent more rapidly.
Second, that they gained weight
2S per cent more rapidly.
And last, that they consumed only
92 per cent as much grain in gaining
100 pounds.
This shows three very definite ad-
vantages in the use of the self-feed-
er. Pigs fed in this manner will eat
more grain per day than under any
other method of feeding. This maxi
mum consumption is not wasteful OF
grain; in fact, 1t saves grain, for an
increase of 19 per cent in the rate OF
eating caused an increase of % per
cent in the rate of gaining. The OBJ
ject in feeding is to put on fat as rap
idly and with as little grain as posi-
BILE. A method which will increase
the rate of gaining 2S per cent and
at the same time decrease by 8 per
cent the grain required to produce a
unit of gain is certainly worthy Of
consideration.
