MOST VALUABLE SHEEP FEED
Rye Stands at Head Of Cereals In
Protein Content, but Lacking In
"a, Carbohydratss.

Whether fed a. 4 grain ration, pas
tured. or cut and fed for hay, rye
holds high place for feeding preg-
nant ewes at weaving time. In its
chemical analysis. rye stands at the
head Of the cereals in protein content.
but 10 somewhat lower In carbOhy.
drates than wheat or corn.
This suggests two things In regard
to Its feeding value: First, to feed In
combination with other things lack.
ing In protein but rich in fat-form-
ing elements. like corn and wheat.
Second. as feed for young animals
in which a high development Of bone
and muscle is required. For either
purpose 1t is highly satisfactory. When
sheep are wintered largely on fodder,
timothy hay. or other roughage. the
rye partly makes up for the lack Of
protein.

point of destination of their movement.
In that way tuberculosis is being
eradicated from many farms.
BiyearIy Test Advisable.
Each live stock owner should make
a practice Of having his herd of cattle
tuberculin tested by competent vet
erinarian at least every two years. If
he has no cattle and has a breeding
herd of swine, it Is advisable to have
them tested by the intradermic meth
cd. This test, though, should be ap-
piled only by skillful veterinarian
who understands the subject thorough
~. If tuberculosis exists in a herd
either of cattle or of swine-the dis
eased animals should be separated
from the healthy ones; If they are
grade animals they should be slaugh.
tered; if they are purebred animals Of
high individual merit, the matter Of
isolating them so that they may be re-
tanned for breeding purposes should be
given proper consideration. In any
event, the matter should be taken up
with the state live stock sanitary Off
cial. so that his advice may be OBJ
tanned with reference to the isolation
of diseased animals.
Investigations by specialists of the
bureau of animal industry demonstrate
that tuberculosis can be entirely eradi-
Gated from herd. Breeders, there
fore, can take up the work with conf
dence of success.

CHEAP PRODUCTION OF PORK
One Of the Best Ways 10 Use Of Stub.
Bile Fieids After Grain Has Been

One Of the cheapest ways Of pro-

fields after the grain has been cut In
the fall. In spite Of all that can be
done there Is more or less grain scat

ess Of cutting and stacking. Hogs
will pick this up and produce excellent
gains without any additional grain.

BOARDMAN BECOMING A
DAIRY, CHEESE CENTER

The people OF the Boardman project
realize that there can be no permanent
agriculture where the crop raised is
shipped out of the country and nothing
returned to the soil This Is especially
important in an irrigated section.
The application of manure increases
the yield of alfalfa. This calls for live
stock. 1t is important that the hay be
fed upon the farm and the products
shipped out in concentrated form.
Interest in dairying has increased to
such an extent that several carloads OF
milk stock are enroute to Boardman,
having been selected by various par
ties interested: A. p. Ayers of Board
man. c. C. Calkins, county agent, and
w. o. King, L. V. Kutzner and Ra>

trict
Financial arrangements have been
made with the Arlington bank, Art
Wheelhouse, president, and with F. W

to carry the deal through.
A cheese factory organization has
been completed with R. Wasmer presi.
dent; Dale Albright secretary, and R

directors. A cheese maker is expected

Contract For Road Work Let.

At a meeting of the state highway
commission in Portland on Tuesday, the
contract was let for the surfacing of
the Heppner-Lexington section Of the
Oregon Washington highway the sue
cessful bidders being Moore & Ander-
son, at $5S,i75. The Morrow county
Judge and commissioners were on the
job to bid for this work, too, but they
evidently were not low enough to carry
off the job,
At this meeting the commissioners
also sold $500 900 of road bonds, which
brought premium Of $49,650. The
bond market was the best since 1919,
and the bidding for the offering was
very lively. A number of contracts for
road work in different parts of the state
were let and at figures as low, II not
lower than pre-war prices. An evidence
that labor and material are coming
down, tho the fact that many Of the
firms wish to keep up their organiza-
ton in order to be ready for the work
offered the coming summer may have
something to do with the lower bids at
this time

SESSUE HAYAKAWA IN
AN AMERICAN DRAMA
"BIack Roses" A Robertson Cole super
Special, with Dramatic Star
at His Best.

In BLACK Roses" his latest Robert
SON Cole production, Sessue Hayakawa,
distinguished Japanese star, is seen for
the first time in many months in a
photoplay laid entirely in America. The
fact. however, that the action of the
story takes place in only one country
does not deprive it of any picturesque
effect The same artistry with which
every Hayakawa production Is invest
ed is paramount In BLACK Roses"
which appears at the Star theatre on
Wednesday and Thursday Nov. 2 and
Is.
During the course Of the production
Hayakawa is seen In three distinct
characterizations, first as happy-go-
lucky gardener on the estate of a mil
lionaire; next as hardened victim Of
circumstances when by false evidence
he is convicted of murder he never
committed, and finally as Chinese
prince moving in the highest circles Of
society where he succeeds in finding
and furnishing those who were respon-
sible for his life's tragedy.
In "Black Roses" Mr.. Hayakawa Is
supported by one of the strongest casts
ever assembled for a motion picture.
and in private life Mrs. Sessue Haya-
kawa is seen in the leading feminine
role
