 Twenty-eight thousand seals were killed on the islands in 1920, selling for $1,400,00O, and with the increased harvest this year, together with a. better price, officials of the bureau of seal slaughter on the Pribilofs, are op- timistic.
 All of the skins obtained from the Pribilof islands this Fall will be ship ped to Seattle by water, thence to be sent overland by rail to St. Louis. where they will be canned and sold at the great annual fur auction held there.
 During the war Alaska sealskins sold as high as $40 each, but $50 was the average price at the 1920 sales This year, however, it is ex- pected quotations will average about The first consignment of supplies, loaded at Seattle, was taken to the North Pacific islands by the U. s.

sUNFLOWER GOOD AS SILAGE
Becoming Popular In Northwestern
Sections Where Corn Is Diff
cult to Grow.

The use Of sunflowers for silage has
proved popular in certain of the North
ern Great Plains and Inter-Mountain
states where 1t is not possible to pro-
duce a large tonnage of corn for silage
purposes. In some sections the silage
made from sunflowers has been found
TO compare favorably in palatability
and feeding value with silage made
from corn. This is not always the
case, however, as 1t appears that In
certain irrigated districts In the North.
ern Great Plains where the growth OF
sunflowers Is rank and succulent, the
resulting silage is often not very pal
atable. Experiments reported from
the Huntley experiment farm In Mon.
tana of the United States Department
Of Agriculture show that while 1t is
possible to produce from 25 to 80 tons
of sunfiowers per acre, It has been DIFF.
ficult to produce silage that Is as
much relished by live stock as corn
silage, which gives rather less than
half as much tonnage per acre.

In the rush of summer work the hens

This Is poor economy, because the care
they receive will determine to large
extent the profits to be realized.
The poultrymen Of the Department
of Agriculture advise that hens be
given free range, If possible, during the
summer months, and if they cannot be
given free range that as much green
feed be furnished as they will readily
consume. Milk is excellent during the
summer months. Buttermilk also may
be used, or semi-solid buttermilk If the
regular buttermilk is not obtainable.
