Milk Feeding
Test of Hogs

In a hog fattening test at Cor
wallis. Ore, skim milk with barley
was fed and checked against a ra-
ton OF barley alone. The result
showed that it required 4S8 pounds
of barley alone to make 100 pounds
Of gain. In case of the barley and
milk lot it required S22 pounds of
barley and $40 pounds OF milk to
make 100 pounds of gain; in other
words, BIB pounds OF milk saved
l16 pounds Of barley. Other by
products u the farm assist in low
ering the costs of gains. Among
these are Gull potatoes, pumpkins,
squash. Gull fruits and vegetables.
Grain stubble is often overlooked
as q means of producing some
cheap pork, Hogs will do very
well on it and thereby utilize an
otherwise totally wasted product.
Under ordinary conditions 500 10
35O pounds of skim milk or butter.
milk will replace 100 pounds of
grain in the ration. With grain
on the farm worth 81 per hundred,
skim milk would have hog feed
ing value of 25 to 35 cents per
hundred, or one-fourth to cne.third
the farm price of grains.

Dip Your Seed Spuds
Chloride Solution

Mercuric chloride-corrosive sub.
l;mate-has been found to be the
most effective material for treating
seed potatoes. Rhizoctonia is con.
trolled by the two-hour soaking in
this chemical, which controls, scab
equally as well as does formaldehyde
and should, therefore, be used as the
standard material for all seed pc
tatO treatments.
The dipping solution is prepared
by dissolving four ounces torrosive
sublimate In thirty gallons, of water.
Soak the uncut tubers in thiS sotu-
ton for one and a half to two hours
and dry before planting. Add one.
half ounce of the chemical for every
four bushels of potatoes treated for
two hours, as the solution decreases
in strength with use. About seven
ounces of corrosive sublimate are
needed to dip twenty bushels of
tubers.

Now is the time to start seeds

Westerner Turns From

Fred Bonner. California ranch
err, raised q $4,000 crop Of beans
in 1919, but before he could mar
ket them the price fell to a figure
that gave him nothing for his la
Dor. He had seen other growers
get rich on beans in war time, but
guessed wrong on his enterprise.
Last year he planted fifteen acres
of waternelons and got $1,000 for
melons and $4,000 for seed. Now
he is going in for production OF
seed of varieties which are In de-
mand at a price of so. to Is cents
pound. Last summer. he invited
tourists to come and eat melons
so he could save the labor OF ex-
tracing the seed. Melons weigh
ing eighty pounds have been grown
on his ranch, '.as sweet as honey,
he claims, and he aspires to the
distinction Of melon seed king OF

Easy to Sprout Oats
For Feeding to Hens

Soak the oats in a pail for twenty
four hours near some source of heat.
Squeeze out the surplus water and
pour the oats into another pail.
Turn the oats twice daily until oats
sprout and show growth of half
an inch or more. Treated in this
way, the oats will sprout in from
three to four days. Start a new
bucket to soaking each day.
The sprouts should be fed to the
hens each noon at the rate of about
one pound to every five birds. Mold
may be prevented from growing on
the oats by using teaspoonful of
formalin to each pail of water or by
turning the oats oftener.
