the same cost that it requires to bale
it. Taking Kansas City, then, as
basis for our calculation, we find the
rate from the Boise district, which in
cludes Caldwell to Boise, to be $14.90
per ton. While 20 tons is the mini
mum weight, meal can be loaded to
which would reduce the
number of cars required to move the
product anywhere from one-half to
two-thirds. Deducting the freight
from the Kansas City quotation, it
leaves the product at shipping point
$20.10 per ton on the lowest quotation
we are able to obtain.
/. Build for Future.
"This, of course, would have to
stand the cost of manufacture and
sacks, but even so it offers not only
solution to- the present difficulties
but the proposition carries with it
alluring prospects for the future. 1t
will not be many years until Idaho
will produce four and five million
tons of hay at the rate of increase of
the past few years and we see no rea-
son why our state should not be the
leading state in the union for not
only alfalfa meal, but the several lead
ing products now manufactured from
this clover.
While we are bonding for all kinds
of public improvement, it seems to us
that in order to meet the great obi
cations which we are assuming it is
high time the citizens join in an effor,
to conserve our great agricultural re-
sources in order to meet these obliga-
tons. This is said without any
thought of neglecting or abandoning
feeding activities, as there will always
be a surplus available to the stock
men. It is our opinion, moreover, tina
when the various alfalfa products are
manufactured at local mills it will have
a tendency to increase stock feeding
for the reason that these products car
be fed without loss, at less expense
and with far greater profit than has
been realized in the feeding of loose
hay. From no point of view can we
see objections to installing these mills
but, on the other hand, we can see an
avenue of escape from the present
discouraging conditions and every
reason to hope for greater things in
the future"

LAYING HENS REQUIRE A
BALANCED RATION
n, DDEN Nn0pE

BY PREM MOORE
"A properly balanced ration is nee
essary for laying hens, if they are to
lay many eggs. Nor is a balanced ra-
ton a complicated system of feeding.
Many people appear not to realize
the importance of a balanced ration
for hens. The common practice is
to feed whatever happens to be handy,
with no variety whatever, the ration
being composed almost entirely of
grain.
Grain does not contain, in sufficient
quantities some of the egg properties.
Grains do not supply protein. The
food property of the yolks of eggs
| is fat, but the food value Of the whites
Of eggs is protein. The hen must be
fed protein in sufficient quantity to
make up the necessary requirements
of the eggs. Eggs contain phosphates
which are derived principally from ami
NAL proteins.
Under farm practice, summer feed
ing causes little concern. The hen can
pick up much of her living. and, Or
dinarily, it is the kind of feed suitabl,
for egg production. The addition Of
a small quality of coarse grain may
be necessary, and probably some shell
and grit. 1t is always advisable to
keep some mash where the hens have
access to it.
Fowls are more or less confined dur
ing the winter months. They are
driven in by the severe weather and
for thi speriod. if eggs are expected,
it is necessar yto provide. artificially,
as nearly summer conditions as pos
sibe. Give the hens a balanced ration.
including plenty of grain, green, sue
culent food and plenty of grit, shell
and bone. Alfalfa leaves, lawn clip
pings. cabbage, mangel wurzels and
clover leaves are good green foods for
poultry.
| Just what constitutes a we'll bal
anced ration is less we'll known for
laying hens than for other domestic
animals. 1t is essential however, that
the ration should consist of proper
proportion of grains to ground feed.
he grains should be of the greatest
variety possible and fed at the rate
of about eight quarts per day per one
hundred hens in a deep little of clean
straw. More than this should not he
fed and it may be safe to reduce the
grain ration below this amount if the
mash is correct.
The mash should be fed dry in open
feed hoppers and kept before the fowls
at all times. 1t should contain a var
iety of feeds, such as bran. finely

ground corn, and oats. 1t should also
Contain about % per cent OF good
quality beef scrap or fish meal Feed
ing as suggested is all that is neces-
sary to insure the fowls getting a
properly balanced ration. When sour

There is no animal on the farm that
is capable of turning surplus milk into
money as is the hen. When hens have
al the milk they will drink. the beef
scrap may be reduced by hall, and;
with liberal allowance of peas and
plenty of sour milk, the beet scrap
may be reduced even more.
A suggested ration with the use OF
peas is as follows:
10 parts corn, parts bran; 10 "arts
peas Slightly cracked), 2 parts carr
meal; 10 parts wheat screenings,

ALFALFA MILLS
ONLY SOLUTION
Of b|GPR0bLEM
Cannon Thinks Com
munity Effort Should
Be Directed to Market
ing Bumper Hay Crop.

That alfalfa mills should be erected
in, southern Idaho communities as the
only possible solution Of the present
hay situation is the conclusion of
Miles Cannon, state commissioner of
agriculture, according to story in
the Current Weekly Markets Bulletin,
~ follows:
THE latest crop summary issued by
julius H. Jacobsen, field agent Of the
department of agriculture, shows a
total of 2,l63,OOO tons Of hay in Idaho,
an increase over the 1919 crop of 49,
600 tons. We presume that approxi-
mately 2,O00, 900 tons of this output is
alfalfa and if it could be moved at SIS
per ton it would add $4,000, 900 to the
wealth of the state of Idaho.
Owing to the manner in which the
federal reserve bank applied the
emergency brake just as the Idaho
crops were ready to move, we wit
messed . serious decline in wool values
and sheep and cattle, which in turn,
was followed by serious stagnation
in the movement of hay. Another dis
agreeable feature is in the rates which
alfalfa hay must now sustain before
reaching the eastern markets. In 1918
the Missouri river rate was 1882 per
ton. In 1919 the interstate commerce
commission granted them rate Of
$ll9O and again in 1920 they were
granted rate of $3.50 ton. Kansas
City and Omaha are quoting hay at
$22 and $23 per ton, baled and de-
ivered. At $22 per ton in Kansas
City the Idaho farmer would just have
sufficient returns to pay the freight
and ,baling expenses.
" Weevil Hurts.
unfortunately, there is a small
amount of weevil in southern Idaho,
but so far as we know, the fields are
not infected sufficiently to notice the
effect of any ravages from this pest
Nevertheless, it has been found in
most of the counties in the southern
part of the state, also in Malheul
county, Or. This has resulted in a
general quarantine against Idaho BY
all the neighboring states which, to.
gether with the sluggish markets ir
the east, has developed in this, one ,ol
our leading industries, a problem Of
the first magnitude
I'VE think, however, there is nc
need to be discouraged. While balee
alfalfa hay is being quoted at $23 pei
ton in Kansas City and Omaha, al
falfa meal is quoted at $35 and 500
Chicago quotes alfalfa at $50 and mea
at $685. Minneapolis quotes alfalfa a
$3.50 and meal at $40 per ton :. Bo.
ton, Baltimore and Atlanta quote mea
At $48 to $50 per ton.

TIIISBE

A most unhappy tragedy hlled the life of Thlsbe, a beautiful Babylon Ian maiden. She was passienAtely in love with Pyramus, but the parents of the couple opposed thelr marriage and in consequence they were only able to talk together through a hole in the wall which separated the homes Of their parents, One day they arranged to meet at the tomb of Minus. outside of Babylon. Thisbe arrived first, but upon the appear ance of lioness she fled in terror to a hiding place, dropping her man tie as she ran. This was torn to pieces by the hungry animal When Pryamus arrived, shortly after, he found the mantle torn to shreds and the lioness a short distance away, and naturally concluded that Thisbe had been devoured by the wild beast. His grief was so great that he killed himself. When Thisbe came from her hiding place and found her lover dead, she promptly stabbed herself with the same sword that Pyramus had used. They were buried to- gether,
