SCIENTIFIC ITEM.

Tests made by university in Wis
consin, aided by government depart
ments, show that COW, fed partly
on sawdust, gains more weight and
gives more milk than when given the
usual feed. Making milk from wood
is not an entirely new thing, as the
coconut has been doing business for
countless ages, and no new agency
has ever cen discovered to make
better coconut milk than the coco tree
itself. However, the Wisconsin ex-
pertinent is worthy of note. Pursu-
ing this interesting subject little
further, is it pertinent to suggest
that the rich milk of the nanny goat
might be the result of the multifar-
ious diet attributed to her by the hu-
morists and that she knew what she
was doing all the time?

1t has been found by observations
made at a sulphate pulp mill that
pulpwood kept in storage from two to
three years yields, on the average, %
per cent less pulp than wood used
when it is green, says Popular Me-

even one year loses ID per cent of its

News and Comment
From Over the State

Business firms at Moscow have ad'
opted an interesting plan of assisting
farmers during the press of harvest
ing. The labor situation has not
clarified itself and if it proves neces-
sary to save the crops the city firms
will lend their clerks and employees
generally for harvest operations.
While harvesting of fall sown wheat
will not begin in Latah county before
the second week in August, except in
few cases, growers are getting
ready for harvest. Farmers, gener-
ally, will try to Exchange work
during the harvest as much as pos
sible, to conserve labor and save the
heavy expense of paying harvest
wages that are expected to be about
81 day higher.
l.. NJ. Holt, superintendent of the
Yakima Indian reservation, in pre-
liminary report, says that there are
1858 acres under cultivation on the
Yakima Indian reservation, an in
crease of 415S acres over year ago.
A conservative estimate places the
probable value of the crop at SILL
100000. Alfalfa alone will bring
more than S3,O00,OOO. The reserva-
ton fruit crop is figured at one-half
of the 1919 production, but at $3.50
return per acre will bring 100000.
The wheat crop will bring $635,965,
while the potato crop, from present
indications, will be worth at least
S950,0O0. A stock census of the res
ervation shows 286 mich cows more
than year ago, and an increase Of
211 in the number of horses. There
are 1876 tractors in use on the reser-
walton.

PUREBRED SIRE CAMPAIGN

Ten counties have been selected in
the State in which purebred sire
campaign is to be conducted during
1920. The campaign begins Febru-
airy l. Prior to that date livestock
committees consisting of from s to 10
members, and known as the Central
County Committee, will meet with the
county agent and specialists to devise
ways and means of making the cam
paign more effective. In counties
where County Councils of .Agricul-
ture have been organized, the live
stock committees will compose ten
central county committees.
In addition to the Central County
Committee, associate committees will
be appointed in the communities of
the various counties where the cen
trail committee deems it necessary to
conduct the campaign. The purpose
of the associate committees is to adj
vertise effectively, and arrange for
meeting in their respective COM
munities. A community survey is to
be made, and owners and patrons of
scrub sires will be urged to give up
the practice of using the scrub.
