Farmer Faces Heavy Loss,
BY l. A. HUNT, County Agent

A canvas of the majority Of the grain
dealers of the county reveals the fact
that the average bushel Of wheat as
sold on the markets of Morrow county
stands a discount for miNture and 9TH
er deficiency due to miNture amounting
to approximately 5 cents per bushel,
Some dealers place il as high as 6.5
cents
The fact that the majority Of the
wheat is sold on sample does not alter
the fact that the purchaser considers
the value OF the wheat from the grad
ing standpoint at the regular govern
ment grades apply in resales and export
trade.
The wheat crop OF Morrow county
this year is from 1900. 900 to 1.750. 600
bushels and this loss is no small item
for the county as a whole-it amounts
to nearly three times the money avail
able for county road construction each
year. To the man who has 5000 bush
els to sell it means a loss of $3.50 dol
lars-a very tidy sum these hard times.
Everybody knows that carefully Sc
lected seed of standard variety. test
and of good vitality will produce a
heavier yield than seed that has degen-
Grated through foul mixtures and i'm
proper selections from veal to year.
The amount of this difference is difficult
to estimate because Of the variety OF
conditions but If it were only one bush
ell per acre, what would that mean to
the average farmer? And from the
standpoint of the county as a whole ii
would mean not less than 5000. 900 per
year.
Last year there were in Morrow
county not to exceed 500 acres of grain
of standard variety test, This year the
Farm Bureau has examined and certi-
fed over 5000 acres and from informa-
ton available 1t is believed hat not
less than 1900 acres of good seed were
grown in the county. This increase is
largely due to the shipment Of Turkey
and Hybrid last season.

NOTICE.

The county court of Morrow County
calls attention of the public to the fact
that at its September meeting, in com
pliance with the wishes of a represen-
tative number of road districts within
the county, assembled in the court room
at that time and for that purpose, did
redistrict the county in order to make
the road districts smaller and more
suitable to the residents of the var
ious districts.
A number of the districts are pc
titioning the court to call a special
road meeting in the district in order
that the people Of the district may talk
over the matter of the road situation
of the district and vote on a special
road tax for the improvement of spec
ial places in the district hat may es-
pecially require it.
The present regular district money,
which is a III mill tax, the same as it
was before the war, is insufficient to
take care of the district needs and a
small special tax appears to be the best
solution Of the problem. Blanks for

Test and Market Weight
of Wheat Are Different
Former Determines Quality. Latter
Quantity. But Are Frequently
Not So Understood.

Oregon Agricultural College, Corvai-
lis Oct. 5.-The difference between the
test and the market weight Of wheat is
one Of the common MISUNDERSTANDING
in the grain business, says e. h. Hys-
lop, head OF farm crops at Q, \. c.
The test weight is used only to de-
termine quality, or grade" says Pro-
lessor Hyslop. "A bushel is 60 pounds
in Oregon. and If the grains are plump
and Of, good quality a measured bushel
will weigh so or more pounds. If
shriveled the wheat in a measured
bushel may not weigh more than So
pounds, or il badly pinched as low as
A pounds.
But this does not make the selling
weight. which is 60 pounds regardless
of how many pounds the wheat weighs
to the bushel. The selling weight re-
mains the same for all wheat, but the
test weight varies with the quality,
which determines its grade and price.
The test weight is prescribed by the
bureau Of markets, federal department
Of agriculture. and to be fair must be
made exactly as prescribed,
Light weight wheat, "a or Sc pounds
per bushel, is not so desirable for mill
ing as similar wheat having a test
weight of 60 pounds. The heavier
wheat usually is more plump and yields
more -four.
Mills occasionally pay more for
pinched wheat than plump, as it has a
higher gluten content and is needed to
strengthen the flour output. But the
tendency in many cases has been to
pay more for the soft, starchy wheat
that could be blended with the pinched
wheat to weaken the gluten content"
proved Forty-fold and Bluestem, the
harvest Of 1921 should show not less
than $4,000 acres of certified seed of
good strong vitality in Morrow county.

MILK DIET IS INSUFFICIENT
Calves Cannot Properly Digest and
Utilize Milk Unless Accompanied
by Roughaae.

Recent research work done by the
Iowa agricultural experiment station
shows whole milk to be a good diet
for young calves up to three months
old. After this age the two calves
experimental on developed symptoms
Of scant nourishment and went down
hill until death finally came at the
ages of 176 and 2O8 days. Failure Of the
milk as a permanent diet for the ru-
minating animals is shown not to be
due to quality or improper quantity
Of Ehe nutrients, but probably to the
inabNity of the animals to properly
digest and utilize the milk unless &C.
companied by some kind Of roughage.
Disarrangement of the digestive sys-
tenn probably follows the abnormal
symptoms noted in the experiment.

Tuberculosis in Cattle.

The bureau Of animal industry of
the department of agriculture reports
that tuberculosis in cattle was respon-
sible for the condemnation of more
cattle, slaughtered under federal meat
inspection last year, than all other dis
eases combined. Information from the
bureau shows that 59,547 carcasses Of
cattle were condemned on post-mortem
inspection and of that number $1,000
were the result of tuberculosis. In ad-
ditiOn 1852 parts of cattle carcasseS
were condemned for the same cause.
The bureau points but that tubercu-
losis in cattle and hog cholera in
swine are the two most serious con
tagious diseases affecting meat an5-
mails, and there is evidence that o
heavy loss occurs on farms in addition
to condemnations at establishments
where government inspection is main
tanned.

Do your dairy dehOrning early.
Cows cannot produce the best quail

It is important that the calf pens
be placed to avoid too great varia-

Good dairy cows will give profitable

Soybean hay makes good feed for

NECESSARY FEEDS FOR BULL
Aim to Keep Herd Sire From Getting
Too Fat-GiVe Him Access TO
Field or Paddock.

"Keep the bull thrifty but not fat"
is the advice of K. G. keller of the
animal husbandry department at Iowa
state college. Give him plenty Of good
nutritious feed. Glover or alfalfa hay
with some corn, oats and little oil
meal are best for keeping him in good
breeding condition. Silage makes a
very good foundation fer the ration
but must not be fed in large amounts
as it makes the bull potbellied and
sluggish.
To keep the herd sire from getting
too fat give him access to small field
or paddock where he can get the nee
essary exercise.

MAKE WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS
More General Use Of Intradermic Test
Is Expected to Speed Up Cam
paign Against "TB."

Recognition Of the intradermic meth,
cd Of applying the first test prepara-
tory to accrediting a herd as free
from tuberculosis, has been announced
by the bureau of animal industry, Uni
ted States department of agriculture.
The more general use Of the intrader-
mic test is expected to ::'speed up" the
federal and state cooperative cam
paign against TB. In the subcutaneous
method, heretofore generally used, the
tuberculin is inserted beneath the skin
and It is necessary to take three pre-
liminary records of the animal and
at least seven soon after the test. In
the intraderm1c method insertion Is
made between the layers of the skin
and, while this requires a greater de-
gree Of skill in the operator, only one
later inspection of the animal may be
sufficient to- indicate the presence or
absence of the disease.
The federal recognition of the intra-
dermic method provides. however, that
herds undergoing it successfully must
pass simultaneous test within year
before they can be accredited as free
