Practice of Alternating Grain
Raising and Summer
Fallow Must Go.

19.-FOrage Gro, "il' 4 ermiEe the
margin of profit Of farmers in the Pa
louise region, according to r. K. Bon
nett, head of the department of farm
crops at the University of Idaho.
"It is essential" said the professor
recently, that forage crops be planted
to replace the customary summer fal-
low Aside from the profits they
bring, these crops will. be useful in
preserving the fertility Of the soil
The general practice in this section of
alternating grain raising and summer
fallow year after year cannot go on.
According to statistics, the yields
OF grain in the Palouse country are
row smaller than when the land was
first brought under cultivation. The
practice of summer fallowing is large
/ ly responsible for this condition, as
the constant cropping of the soil with
no return of plant food has gradually
depleted its fertility.
THAT the areas of Palouse land idle
in summer fallow is the most potent
factor in determining farm profits, is
shown ir a recent bulletin from the
United States Department of Agricul
tuC Any crops that will replace sum
mer fallow without decreasing Tho
yield of the succeeding grain or Other
crops will materially increase profits
Pces, for instance are not only 1

Experiments conducted at the uni

there are many forage crops wei
adapted to Palouse conditions. A sum

lowing facts:
Field peas are among the mos
desirable substitutes for summer fal

P0RRIDGE FEED FOR POULTRY
Scraps and Waste Are Best Prepared
BY Running Through an ordi-
nary Meat Gutter.

Table scraps and kitchen waste are
best prepared for feeding by running
them through an ordinary meat grind
er. After the material has been put
through the grinder it is usually a
rather moist mass, and it is well to
mix with it cornmeal, bran. or other
ground grain until the whole mass as
sumes a crumbly condition. The usual
method is to feed the table scraps at
noon or at night, or at both times, as
may be desired, in trough or on a
board. All should be fed that the
hens will eat up clean. and If any Of
the material is left after one-half or
three quarters of an hour it should
be removed. If allowed to lie it may
spoil and would be very bad for the
hens.
