The freshman class of Willamette
university evidently expects large
audience at this year s freshman S
glee contest as the managers have Sc
cured the armory for the event. All
Salem is invited to enjoy this songfest
and it will cost nothing as the freshmen
will bear all the expense. A few years
ago the glee contest was held in Wal
Ter hall which could not accommodate
the crowds, Last year it was held in the
Methodist church and again, even with
the large seating capacity of the church,
all could not gain admittanee. So the
managers this year propose that every.
one shall have chance for a fine even
ing's entertainment and have secured
the armory. The date is Thursday ev.

In making the excavations necessary
to build a roadway from the bank of
the river between Court and Chemeketa
streets and Water street it was found
necessary to dump part of the dirt into
the river. This could not be done with
out the consent of the governments en-
gineers. Application was made TO the
government, and permission refused.
Then it was decided that the next best
thing in order to get road from the
river bank to Front street was TO build

work on this road win begin within a

Six varieties Of domestic turkeys are
recognized by the American Standard
Of Perfection. OF these by far the
most widely known is the Bronze. aft
er which come the White Holland. the
Bourbon Red, the Black, the Nara.
gansett and the Slate.
In color the Bronze turkey is of a
rich, brilliant, copperish bronze against
background of black and brown and
contrasted by the clear white tips of
the tail coverts and main tail feathers
When wild blood has been introduced,
however, the tips of the tail feathers
are yellowish brown rather than white
The Bourbon Red is of a deep brown
ish red, With white wings and tail
The White Holland is pure white. The
Black turkey is Of a lustrous greenish
black throughout. The color of the
Narragansett is steel gray against a
background Of black. The Slate tur-
key Is Of slaty or ashy blue color,
more or less dotted with black.
BY Judicious breeding turkeys have
been increased markedly in size since
domestication. The wild turkeys of
today average in weight about twelve
pounds for young toms and nine
pounds for young hens, while the
standard weight for the Bronze vari-
ETY. is twenty-five pounds for young
toms and sixteen pounds for young
hens. AS a matter Of fact, however,
In sections where little or no attempt
has been made to breed turkeys up to
a high standard the weight Of the or
binary run Of turkeys does not average
more than that Of the wild ones.

Parasites Hamper Growth of Wool and
Lower Animate Vitality.
The sheep tick is wingless parasitic
fly which spends its entire life on the
sheep. 1t obtains its food by pune
turing the skin and feeding on the
blood and lymph of the animal The
irritation thus caused, especially In the
case of lambs, is great. and the con-
slant drain of blood may in time be-
come serious. Infected sheep are so
restless that they do not feed well and
are in general less thrifty than tick
free flocks These conditions hamper
the growth of wool and in general low
er the market value OF the sheep.
From purely economic point Of view,
therefore. dipping Is profitable prac-
tice.
Two clippings are regarded as neces-
sary ON account Of the life habits of
the tick. The first dipping will de-
stroy all the mature ticks OH the ami
NAL, but 1t cannot be depended On to
destroy those in the pupal stage. in

from nineteen to twenty-four days. A
second dipping, therefore, twenty-four
days after the first will find these in
sects in an unprotected state. having
emerged from the pupal shell in the
interval between the clippings.
There are number of solutions
which are effective in destroying sheep
ticks. Among these, coal-tar-creosote,
cresol and nicotine dips may be pur-
chased ready prepared. The lime-sul-
phur-arsenic solution can be made at
home, but it is difficult to prepare, and
its poisonous qualities neccssitate spe-
cial precautions in it's use. Complete
details In regard to the various kinds

deaux mixture, made OF four pounds Of
copper sulphate, four pounds of burned

the anthracnose fungus that attacks
beans, as well as cucumbers and mel

the plants are two or three inches high,

Pumpkin a Good Feed.

Before the day Of the modern corn
harvester pumpkins did not interfere
with harvesting corn. They were
largely and profitably grown. They
can be more profitably grown this year
than ever. -Four pounds Of pumpkin
have feeding value for cows and hogs
equal to one and one-half pounds OF
grain They have an additional value
because they are succulent and pala-
table. They serve as a most excellent
food to use during the period when
cows are being changed from pasture
to dry feed.-Kimball's Dairy Farmer.

at Fair Profit.
The principal reason late Matched
chicks are usually failure and usual
~ Improbable is because of the heat,
because of vermin that flourish apace
during said heat and because they usu-
ally have to compete with earlier
hatched and older chicks. These be-
ing the facts, the thing to do is to
avoid them as much as possible.
A hot, dry summer is hard on them,
but In usual summers large, well ven
tilated coop and some natural shade
are all that IL needed to combat heat
Lice any one can fight successfully IL
he will only look for them and use
the well known and often published
methods. And on farms at least 1t is
usually easy to put these late Matched
chicks along some lane, woods, field of
corn or somewhere where adult poul-
try and older chicks cannot trouble
them and where the ground Is clean
and sweet In poultry sense and
plenty of natural food still to be found.
This isolation Of late Matched chicks
Is perhaps the one important thing
that makes for success or failure with
them.
In any case try raising some late
Matched chicks this year. There will
be a'market for them at good prices.

East Lansing. Mich, Aug. 1.-The
farmer who faces the prospect Of being
caught this season with more immature
or frosted corn than he can use imme-
diately, will find the silo q valuable
adjunct TO his farm equipment, say
farm mechanics men of the Michigan
Agricultural college. Storing In silo
they add, will make possible the using
for feed of roughsge and fodder which
might otherwise 60 to waste.i
ITO the man who does not possess a
silo," farm mechanics bulletin states.
1.-The question of the size to build is an
important one. With the coming into
common use Of the masonry silo, the
height has been gradually increased.
This can be safely done because the
heavier types of silos are less liable to
blow over, and the increased height
also is a great advantage from the
standpoint of capacity. A silo 40 feet
In depth, for instance, has three times
the capacity Of q silo only 90 feet in
depth The increased capacity Is due
to the better packing secured with in.
creased height.
I'm calculating what hei hit to built
it is customary to allow 80 pounds day
for each loco pound dairy COW for a
period of from six to eight months.
For period Of seven months this re-
quires practically three and one. half
tons for each animal in one year. If
ten animals are to be fed, q silo of at
least 40 tons capacity will be required
To prevent spoilage of silage at least
two inches must be fed off each day in
warm weather. Increasing the height
of the silo, therefore, rather than its
diameter is an advantage in that it in
creases the depth which may be fed
daily.
"As rule q silo may be profitably
used with ten cows. 1t Is not advisa-
BILE to build with diameter of less than
ten feet. A good rule for height is to
make the height at least three times
the diameter. Thus it will be seen that
10'x30, 1895. or 14'x40' will be about
tue right proportions to build.
Remembering that each full grown
animal requires about three and one
half tons of silsge per year and that the
silo should be at least 80 feet high, the
size of the silo you will need can easily
determined by the following approx.
mate table.
Diameter 10 feet-Height 40 feet,
capacity 70 tons; height 35 feet,
