or an increase of 1872 per cent, where
most Of the disease had been re-
moved. AS the amount of disease
was decreased the percentage of
marketable tubers increased.
Farmers are warned not to plant
too many potatoes in 1926. The high
price of 1925 is going to stimulate
the planting of large acreage in
1926, which usually results in ex-
tremely low prices due to over-pro-
duction.
In view of results with good seed
the potato farmer cannot afford to
use anything but the highest grade of
seed available. With the best seed
it will be possible for him to plant
from Is to so per cent less acreage
and still get the same yield of
more marketable product than If he
uses the poor seed. 1t is just as i'm
portant to use. high grade seed as it is
for the stock breeder to use the high
est pedigreed stock on his farm for
breeding purposes.

Oregon Jersey Notes
By II. N. COLEMAN

G. L. Bush of Hoskins has the
honor of presenting another Silver
Medal bull to Oregon's list. His bull,
"Undalata Princes Sir Oxford"
127629, has qualified for the Silver
Medal.
The February 5O-pound list gives
"Sophies Princess Eulalia," 557488,
owned by Mrs. w. j. Thornley, of Sill
verton first place in the Junior 3-year-
old class. Her record in February
was 1888 lbs. Of milk, 1924 lbs. of fat
at 70 days in milk. This animal was
also highest COW for Oregon, all ages.
Oregon had Is out of ISL herds and
% out of AL cows III the February
50-pound list.
The February 40-pound list (ani-
mails under IA years of age) gives
Oregon three out of &c herds, and four
out of "a animals a place. The high
est Oregon animal was Lads St.
Mawes Cay" 624424, owned by Del
bert Biersdorf of Cornelius. Her rec
ord was 767 lbs. of milk, 1900 lbs. of

Hum0r Saves the Situation

During the late World War, the
officers of the Allied Armies main
tanned it was Humor that saved the
soldiers from losing heart and giving
up in despair No matter how seri-
GUS the situation, especially among
the British and American troops, the
doughboy would usually joke and
make light of even terrible catastro-
Plies. A typical humorous story is
told of poor fellow in the hospital,
who had been badly wounded in the
head and face by shrapnel and was
swathed in bandages, with eyes and
nose just visible. A well-meaning
but stupid woman, visiting the wound
ed, went up to this poor soldiers bed
and to show him that she was inter-
ested in his condition, said "My dear
fellow. were you wounded in the
head?" mo, madam" mumbled the
soldier, Sin my foot and the bandages
slipped up"
A sense of humor is a great gift.
1t not only helps the one who pos
sesses it, but helps all who come

under its influence. A great BANQUET
was being given in London to a party
of influential men; the conversation
was interesting and the food seemed
to take second place in the notice of
the guests. English plum pudding
was one of the courses. One of the
diners, in earnest discussion over
some question, inadvertently took
quite a large mouthful of the pudding
which was piping hot. With an agon.
lied look around at the rest Of the
guests he dropped the offending pud-
ding from his mouth on to his plate.
then looked calmly round at the sur
prised company and said calmly,
Some fools would have swallowed
that" The social blunder was turned
into an opportunity for uproarious
laughter, the guests thoroughly en-
joying the diversion, and instead of
being overcome with modification
the offender was the hero of the
dinner party-all because he saw the
humor in the episode so did the
other guests-in his remark.

tain medicines were administered az
Spring tonics." But nowadays it is
considered more effective to eat foods
rich in iron, than to dose with medi-
cines containing that element. For
IN food we get nourishment as well
as a tonic.
An green vegetables, such as spin
ach, cabbage (sauerkraut), asparagus,
Brussels sprouts and lettuce are rich
in iron and vitamins. So are carrots
Spinach and sauerkraut are additions
ally valuable as system-cleansers. AS
most of these vegetables may be had,
regardless of the season, by buying
them in tins, we need not wait for
Our spring tenics. Rhubarb is another
excellent tonic, because of its refresh
ing and appctizing tang" It, also,
may be purchased in cans. when the
fresh is unavailable. 1t is particular
ly good for us in the springtime.

citation celebrated, on April 18th, the

mems Association, and the whole
county shares with them in the pride
of having in it's midst one Of the most
successful cooperative dairy organi
cations in the West.

Milking machines are past the ex-
detrimental stage. Several different
kinds have been used successfully in
the state of Washington for eight or
ten years. While many farmers, try.
ing machines have discarded them
there are enough men who have used
them successfully for from five to ten
years to prove that they can be used
successfully.
w. J. Knutson of Skagit County
has used milking machine for about
ten years on large herd and has
never had any serious trouble with it.
He noticed that the same unit must
be used every milking on any certain
cow If one unit is used one time
land another unit is used the mex,
time, a COW will fall off in her milk
Evidently there is a slight differ
ence in the working Of the units used
on this farm and, since a COW Is
affected by any sudden change, this

.,iid consequently d,es not give salts
faction.
plto 'ramm rf King County has
used one for about eight years Every
cow In tho herd was raise on the
farm, so most of them have been
MIXED with the machine from the
start.
Mr.. Tamm says that he has had a
few COWS which did not respond well
to the mixer. However, since the
neighbors know that the herd has
been bred up by him on this farm for
40 years, he has no trouble in selling
a Cow for good price to some one
who milks by hand. He says that he
would not consider returning to hand
milking

causes her to fall off in her milk
This seems a small matter and many
men would have discarded the ma
chine before they found out the re-
quirements for operating it success
fully.
H. e. Hall of Stevens County has
used a milking machine successfully
for some time. On this farm the milk
from each COW is weighed at every
milking and it was noticed that prac-
tically every COW increased in her
production practically every milking
for the first two weeks after the ma
chine was started This was prob
ably due to the fact that the hands
of the mixer had not been in good
condition for while before the ma
chine milking was started. But there
are many men milking who are not
good mixers and do not do as good
work as a machine will do.
About the easiest money made on
a farm is obtained by weighing the
milk of each cow at every milking.
1t enables the owners to feed accord
ing to production and to detect ap-
preaching sickness in a COW quicker
than in any other way. Then by
these weights the annual production
of the COW may be obtained.
And any one buying milking ma
chine should buy one which has single
units so that one COW is MIXED into a
pail. Then it is very easy to weigh the
milk by pouring it from the pail into
a bucket into which the COW is
stripped before the milk is weighed.
e. w. Van Tassel of Chelan County
has been using a milking machine on
his herd of registered Ayrshires quite
satisfactorily for two years. He uses
the small type machine which has
only one single unit. 1t cost him
about $3.50. He says that milking
one COW at time suits his condi-
ton very well because it gives the
mixer time to strip the COW, to
weigh the milk, to carry the milk to
the cooler and sometimes to attend
to some small matter which needs
attention.
Robert Gaskell of Clallam County
has been using milking machine for
seven years. He did not like it at
first but he soon found that he was
using too much vacuum and that he
was not keeping the machine clean.
One of the greatest drawbacks to
the milking machine has been that
the salesman, in trying to make a
sale, has often tried to make the
prospect think that practically no
time at all is required in caring for
the machine &c. If the sale is made,
the machine is not given proper care
