Public Sales

1t is now getting time for the
farmers that are contemplating
holding sale of their personal
property to be securing sale dates
and | beg to advise the public on
the Camas Prairie that | am still
in the auction business and will be
pleased to conduct your sales in
the same business like manner |
have heretofore tried to do and
should you wish to secure a date
ask your local printer to call up
the Nez Perez Herald office and
secure your date at my expense.
So far this month everything is
selling good with the exception of
horses and for the benefit of the
public that does not get out in
other parts as | do in conducting
sales all over the Northwest that
the prospects for a horse or mule
market are not very encouraging
as there are 10000 to be turned
loose in the Northwest in the next
thirty days, hence it will flood the
market. Wishing everybody a
prosperous New Year, beg to
remain, yours for business.

Baseball Players Formerly
Chosen For Size

In talking about the American nat
ional game, a well-known baseball
manager recalls the days when the
players were chosen for their size,
and every baseball team was COM
pany of nine giants. In game, as a
Martian making his first visit to the
United States might deduce from an
afternoon at the baseball park, that
is often won by the ability of man
with stick to hit ball that another
man is trying to throw past him, and
knock that ball as far as possible,
size and weight were held to be neces-
sary qualifications: "Unless man
was a six-footer," says the reminis-
cent manager, che wouldn't command
much attention as a player" Then a
few smaller men managed to get into
the game, and made up in agility what
they lacked in weight, for "the little
man was not only faster than hu-
man elephant, but he could hit quite
as often if not so hard. And the game
became what is today, an exhibition of
individual judgment and skill as we'll
as of strength.-Ex.

FOREIGN VS.. NATIVE GROWN
CRIMSON CLOVER SEED
AGRONOMIST GIVES RESULT OF OBSERVATIONS
Advises termination Test before Purchasing in
Quantity

Is foreign crimson clover seed as
satisfactory as native grown seed?
This is a question that has been dis
cussed by Delaware farmers for a
number of years. The popular opinion
is that the Delaware seed is to be
preferred. In previous tests the Sta
tion has not found any marked differ
ence in the two classes Of seed pro-
viding they were of equal germina-
tion and free from impurities. In or
der to more fully investigate this
problem, the Department of Agron-
omy of the Station secured in July,
1918, through the aid of the Bureau
of Plant Industry of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, a lot of Italian
and French grown seed. Sufficient
seed of each kind to sow an acre was
sent to three farmers in different
parts of the state. Each farmer was
also provided with enough Delaware
grown seed to sow an acre. One test
was made near Dover on land occu-
pied by tomatoes and seeded at the
last working. Another near Seaford
on land that had been in wheat, then
plowed and specially fitted for the
clover. The third, on a farm near
Laurel in standing corn at the last
cultivation. The three kinds Of seed
were thus sown under three different
conditions. The late fall and early
spring examination of the crop show

Look After Drinking
Water For Cattle

Before turning cattle that have
been kept in the barn or lot during the
winter onto pasture a good water sup
ply should be carefully provided for.
Ponds, springs, watering troughs, or
other facilities for watering should
he cleaned and put into shape. 1t is
frequently thought that the water
supply is abundant early in the season
ind therefore that no attention need
be given to it. This is a mistake, as
springs and ponds fill up during the
winter and troughs become damaged
SO they fail to hold sufficient water for
the needs of the cattle. In most cases
the water supply can not be material
ly increased, so care must be taken to
conserve what is available. It is ad-
visable to fence around springs to pre-
vent the cattle from tramping the
earth and polluting the water. The
maximum use of water from spring
can he obtained by providing two O,
three troughs set so that the overflow
FROM one will run into the next one.
