A POULTRY PASTURE
BY c. B. Allison, Field Agronomist
and State Seed Commissioner

BY c. B. Allison, Field Agronomist
and State Seed Commissioner
Besides being an extraordinary
legume for dairy pasture, Ladino
clover, giant white clover, has
given excellent satisfaction among
poultry men who use this forage
crop as green feed for chickens.
Cows, sheep, hogs and horses also
relish this clover more than any
other legume.
Il 1t is especially we'll adapted to the
irrigated sections. 1t responds
readily to the application Of water
and starts growing exceptionally
early in the spring and, with proper
attention, continues to grow late
into the fall.
The members of the Ladino Seed
Growers association, Filler, are sold
to the merits of this crop. Further
tests. are being conducted thruout
Idaho, Oregon and Washington, on
the value of this legume as a pasture
for livestock, especially dairy cows.
The seed is rapidly being disposed Of
for permanent pasture purposes.
The growers have found that the
best results are obtained by plant
ing three to five pounds per acre
without a nurse crop. The first
three weeks is the critical time and
the plants should not be allowed to
suffer from want of water during
that period.

REPORT ON
POULTRY ASSOCIATION

In a recent issue we stated that a
total of $4,000 hens had been signed
up for the Egg Marketing associa-
ton. The following letter shows an
error on our part, there being only
5000 at the present time:
Dear Mr.. Thomas:
The contracts seem to be in from
all the counties, SO far as we know
we only have about $4,000. We
have taken the matter up with the
board of directors of the Idaho
Oregon Egg Producers association
at Caldwell and they are of the
opinion that we had better extend the
campaign for thirty days more, and
in their Judgment it would not be
advisable to attempt, to set up q
branch office in this section of the
state with less than $4,000 hens.
1t will be impossible to conduct
an active campaign from Pocatello,
however, we will take care of the
detail work that might be entailed
during the next thirty days.

have an egg marketing association

DAIRY COWS HELPED

Seventy-five dollars an acre was
the annual gross income on the farm
of George Smithers and his two sons
of Wood county, Ohio, in 1928, and
of that amount more than half came
from the herd of purebred Holsteins,
according to an account in a recent
issue of the Ohio Farmer.
For several years Mr.. Smithers and
his boys MIXED grade Holsteins and
retailed their milk in the little city
of Rossford. After getting some
valuable experience with grades,
they embarked into the purebred
business.
Practically all the feed required
by their cows is grown on the farm.
OF the 100 acres cultivated, about
twenty-four were in alfalfa last year.
Soybeans are put in the corn for sill
age. With such roughage along
with corn and oats, the feed problem
is solved, except for test cows for
which only oil meal need be bought.
Sugar beets are also available.
The Smithers by no means carry
all their eggs in one basket. The
Holsteins last year brought about
$4,000 in milk shipped to Toledo and
$500 in cattle sales. In addition,
220 apples trees returned about
$500; tomatoes, $1,000; beets for
the nearby sugar company, $1,000;
poultry about $500; and the rest of
the years sales came from wheat,
corn and hay-a grand total Of
$10,750 for the year, besides what
the farm contributed to the support
of three families.
What these Ohio farmers have
done on high priced land can be
duplicated anywhere where hay and
grain is grown. There is always
market for dairy products and the
income is sure and regular at all
seasons of the year.

A SCRUB ROOSTER

They call me a scrub rooster! Yet
have a pedigree. / was sired by a
scrub, dam'd by a scrub and am
treated like scrub, and l sometimes
think that I am owned by a scrub.
Ny tribe outnumbers good roosters
five to one. Just why l exist is a
mystery even to me. Yet l am not
responsible for it. / was brought
into this world without my consent
and I shall probably leave it against
my will. In the meantime l am
getting the most vicious publicity,
principally thru the poultry and farm
press. They say l am a renegade
and an abomination, and should be
exterminated. Poultrymen passing
my owners farm look at me with
contempt, even the hens show me no
respect My own daughters seem to
hold a Crude against me, saying that
l am responsible for their low egg
production. l cannot argue the
point, because 1t is true. But what
can l do? My owner must think
lot of me personally, or he would not
continue to support me, knowing
that l can never improve the quality
of his flock or be a source of profit
to him. Trap nest records are GER
tainly showing me up and 1 can see
the handwriting on the wall. My
tribe is doomed! Under the keen
competition and reasonable prices of
pedigreed roosters there is no place
on the farm for me. So goodbye,

have retarded the development of
the poultry industry, for 10, these
many years.

LETTER FROM MIR. MOORE

|
The following letter has just beer
received from Mr.. Moore regarding
the relative value of white or colored
eggs. Many inquiries have been re-
ceived at this office for this informa-
tom
Mr.. Walter F. Thomas,
County Agricultural Agent,
Blackfoot, Idaho
Dear Mr.. Thomas:
This is in reply to your letter of
the lin inst, asking as to the rela-
tive value of white and brown eggs
as they sell on the general markets
of the country.
The chalk white transparent full
of "a ounces to the dozen and with
no egg in case weighing less than
% ounces to the dozen, is the high
est priced egg on the market thru
any system employed for marketing
them. New York sets the standard
for market eggs and other markets
conform to it. The New England
states are known as brown-shelled
egg consuming states and Boston in
particular, but white eggs are going
onto that market now very salts
factorily. Thru the association,
however, we are often able to make
brown shells bring as much as the
whites, but generally speaking, the
white shelled egg brings more

products.
Seed Crops
1t requires less water to produce
alfalfa seed than it does for either
seed peas or clover. 1t is safe to at
tempt clover seed production where
late irrigation is assured. Seed
peas require less irrigation than
clover and about the same AMOUNT
as wheat. In short water years ex-
perienced seed growers have saved
the first crop of alfalfa or clover for
seed and only good clean fields.
Water Supplies
The situation as to water is about
the same as that presented in 1919.
We have this advantage, however,
experience has taught us the better
use of irrigation water, both early
and late runoff, and storage supplies
We can pretty accurately estimate
for each individual project how early
and how late storage water must be
used.
From the experience of 1919, we
learn that it is good practice to hold
as much of the early overflow of the
Snake by running it into the canals
of the upper Snake river valley and
thus fill the vast underground reser-
voir there. This underground reser-
voir water gets back into the Snake
river later in the season and is
caught as late season runoff on the
lower irrigation projects. This en-
ables the conservation of storage
water with better promise of late
irrigation this year than in 1919.
Precipitation has been closer to
normal to the south than towards
the mountains. March and April !
may improve the fall in the mount
aims. At present, however, the frost |
Is out of almost of the farming sec
ions. The content of moisture in |
seed beds seems to be above that of
1919. The ground is in excellent |
condition for blowing and early seed
ng. Wise farmers are at work early
md late and attach the harrow to
he plow to cut of evaporation.
The conference has faith in the
experience of project managers and
heir understanding of the irrigation
of crops and the profit
Ible and efficient use of storage
water this season is important. Idaho
farmers can go thru an
ther year of successful production
willing cooperation is extended
roject managers.
