SALE PROVES
SUCCESS

Auction sale of pure-bred Poland
China hogs conducted Monday at the
grounds of the Northwest Livestock
show, says the Lewiston Tribune, was
big success from the standpoint
of distributing the best breeding
stock of the northwest among
the farmers of the many To-
caities represented The top price
paid was $50 and the average for the
first ten sold was better than 800.
The weather was unfavorable and
the condition of the roads in many Of
the tributary sections prevented the
attendance of many bidders who had
indicated an intention of attending.
Telegraph and mail bids were received
and as result of this sale two of the
top hogs will 90 into Montana, one
to Sunnyside, Wn., and another to
southern Idaho. Asotin county, Latah
county, Whitman county, Wn., and
Nez Perez county brought the larger |
percent of the offerings.
This sale was conducted by How |
ard Mckinley and John Funke Of |
Cottonwood, and these men brought |
to the Lewiston sale a strain Of PO- |
land China hogs that are equal to any
to be found in the northwest. This is
the second annual sale conducted by
Messrs. Mckinley and Funke and it is
their purpose to continue this policy
of annual sales and they hope to hold
the sales in Lewiston.
The class of stuff offered at the sale
was explained to those in attendance

FARM TERRACING is
VALUABLE PRACTICE
Pennsylvania Farmer Enthusi-
aStiC Over Benefits.
Great Advantages to Be. Derived Are
Little Understood in Greater Por-
tion of Northern States-Pre-
vents Soil Washing.

prepared by the United. States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
! The owner of a large farm in Penn
sylvania, on which one of the first at
tempts at terracing in the North At
lantic states was undertaken last
/ spring, is enthusiastic about the bene-
efits of this work. He has asked that
the drainage division of the Bureau of
Public Roads, which supervised the
project, aid in extending the terracing
this fall.
This sort of rural engineering is new
in the region, and the low ridges at
various levels on the sloping fields of
this farm have OccasiOned the liveli-
est interest in the whole district. Ter
racing of various types has been prac-
ticed in parts of the South for num-
Der of years, but in many sections of
the North its great advantages are
little understood. Consequently, the
bureau is particularly interested in
this demonstration of the permanent
value of terracing on this Pennsyl-
vania farm.
The Bureau of Public Roads points
out that the washing away of earth
by water costs the farmers of the
United States approximately one mil
lion dollars every year. Soil losses
from this cause occur in every state
of the union and in almost every coun-
ty of every state Terracing is the
most effective method of prevention.
There are two types of terraces
the bench terrace and the ridge ter
race A field of bench terraces re-
sembles a series of benches or a flight
of steps. Ridge terraces, as the name
implies, are simply ridges of earth
thrown up across the slopes or hill
sides. Ridge terraces are divided into
two classes with respect to width and
base, narrow base and the broad base.
A broad base is the more recent type
of the two, and as yet has been used
in only a few localities. However, |
it is rapidly coming into general use
and is taking the place Of the narrow
base because Of its superiority for
most, if not all, conditions. This is
the type on the Pennsylvania farm.
It's chief advantage lies in the fact
that it can be readily crossed by large
farm machinery, and therefore it does
not interfere with the usual farm OPP
The broad embankment Of
earth gives the terrace strength to
the pressure of water and
prevents breaks due to seepage.
