FEED DAIRY CATTLE
ON PRODUCTION BASIS

Buying the right kind of feed
and feeding them according to the
production of the cows is an inn
portant factor in the success of a
dairyman. This advice is given
by r. C. Jones, extension special
list in dairying at the State College
of Washington.
A high producing cow requires
more feed than low producer.
On the other hand, the good cow
will produce butterfat at a lower
cost per pound than the poor one.
Records kept by members of
dairy herd improvement associa-
tions in Washington show that it
costs an average of So cents a
pound to produce butterfat from a
cow whose production is $50 pounds
year, while butterfast costs only
80 cents a pound from a cow pro-
ducing 400 pounds year.
1t is economy to buy feeds on
the basis of their feeding value
rather than on the price per ton.
If oats are worth $35 per ton, the
ingredients of barley have a value
of $39.38 ton; corn $42.84 and
millrun, $33.25.

trymen, this to include the mar
keting of eggs, the purchase Of
feeds and the disposal of live poul-
try. At the Prosser meeting, rec
concentrations were made that a
definite survey of the poultry
situation in the county be made,
determining the number Of birds
in each community and the num-
Der Of poultrymen having 100 birds
or above. This work will be done
before tn first of the year by the
County Agent. The program for
the Prosser community will depend
somewhat upon this survey. In the
Kennewick community, the rec
concentrations were toward great
er cooperation on the part of the
producers in the purchase of feeds.
A definite recommendation was
made that the County Agent give
some attention to the matter.
Through poultry production, pro-
ducers go toward more generally
speaking, to improve the prices
eceived for eggs than in any other
way. At all Of the meetings, it was
felt that greater attention must
be given to the production prob
lem, first, through the purchase
of better breeding chicks so as to
at least have the basis of good
laying flock. These chicks then,
must of course, be raised properly
in order to assure their coming
into the laying house so as to be
able to produce large number OF
eggs during the year. In both
communities, it was felt that great
er attention must be given to the
quality of the egg production, in
other words, that chicks must be
bought from stock which is pro-
ducing a good quality of eggs, as
we'll as large number.
The program as to be carried
out, will include the establishing of
demonstration flocks in each COM
munity of the county, if possible
to secure the right type Of coop
orators. The definite practices
recommended by the poultry spec
ialist then will be carried out at
these demonstration poultry farms
and meetings held at these places
to bring to the attention of the
poultrymen, the practices as rec
commended and the results as Sc
cured by the cooperator. A two
day school will be held at Prosser
at which definite instructions will
be given on the handing of the
poultry flock under various condi-
lions and at which time, control
of diseases and insects will be
stresses. Dates for this school has
not yet been set.

FORTY ATTEND
HORT. MEETING
Increased Yields in Tree
Fruits and Improved
Quality Discussed

The horticultural economic con-
ference and program meeting, held
in the White Bluffs community,
Monday, was not only well attend
ed, but interest was exceptionally
good. Forty farmers of the W.B.-
Hanford communities attended this
meeting and interest in the various
problems kept some of the people
there until $500 in the evening.
The majority of those present
felt that the help most needed
was along the line of increased
yields per acre, improving the quail
ity of the fruit and the size. The
method of doing this was along
the line of frost control over most
of the community; soil manage
ment thru the use of fertilizers
and better systems of cover crops
or use of manures.
Some were opposed to the use
Of commercial fertilizers, but from
the standpoint of present needs in
some of the orchards, it was felt
that some work must be done.
Nitrate fertilizers were recon-
mended.
Polarization was lone OF the
things that several Of the growers
felt was badly needed, especially
in their orchards. It is probable
that some topping work will be
done to remedy this situation and
many felt that the use of more bees
in their orchards would correct
some of the trouble.
Continuation of the pruning
work which has been carried on
for several years and especially,
continuation of the definite prun-
ing demonstrations started last
year was asked for. A summer
tour to study moisture control in
the orchards and a follow up OF
pest control work done earlier, was
also recommended as good meth
cd of securing information.
Pest control, tree spacing and
thinning were to be followed up
with definite demonstrations and
these would also be covered on the
tour.

SEED POTATO SHOW AND
EXCHANGE AT WAPATO

The second annual seed potato
show and exchange will be held at
Wapato, Washington, January II,
10 and 10, 1929. The show this
year, promises to be much larger
than the one held last year from
the standpoint of seed samples en-
tered. A program has been arrang-
ed for the afternoon of January
10 and 10. Details for this pro-
gram have not been received here
yet. This show is sponsored by the
Wapato Chamber of Commerce
and the Department of Agricul-
ture of the State of Washington,
and has as it purpose, the develop
ment of interest among commercial
growers in better seed and the ex-
hibiting of seed samples on the
part of the seed growers, so that
commercial growers and seed pro-
ducers may have an opportunity
to get together.
owe believe that this meeting is
well worth while for the CONNER
cial potato growers of this county,
and would especially urge the at
tendance at least for one day, and
we believe that one of the days on
which an afternoon program will
be held, would he better day to
attend" E. C. Durdle, county
agent said. Certified seed for the
last few years has sold at a COM
paratively low price, considering
the returns which may be gotten
through it's use. We would heartily
recommend to commercial growers
of this county, the attendance at
one of these meetings"

HOW PRODUCTION
AFFECTS COST OF FAT

That production has direct re-
lation to the cost of producing
lbutterfat is indicated by compar-
ison o f two herds in Whatcom
county. Each herd had 80 cows.
The first herd produced only 24S
pounds of fat per COW and the but
terfat was produced at cost of
64.1 cents per pounds. The second
herd averaged 422 pounds per cow
and butterfat was produced at 31.2
cents per pound.

6-12 MONTH HEIFERS NEED
ENSILAGE AND LEGUMES

Heifers from to IL months Of
age should receive from 5 to Is
pounds of silage daily and all Of
the good legumes hay that they
will eat. The amount of grain to be
fed will depend largely upon the
individual animals growth and
condition. She should be kept in
fair flesh and good growing con-
dition. A safe rule is to feed
about IL pound of grain daily
for each hundred pounds liveweight
of the heifer.

DEMONSTRATION POULTRY
FLOCK REQUESTED

One of the outstanding recon-
mendations made by poultrymen at
the three poultry economic and
program meetings, held in the
county last week, was the estab-
fishing of definite demonstrations
on flock management. Especially
in the White Bluffs, Kennewick
and Richland communities, poultry
men felt that there was not much
need of trying to improve practices
along poultry lines until it was def
initely shown that it was possible
to make money from the poultry
flock. Tentative plans for such
a demonstration flock would in
clude purchase of chicks from the
sources which would guarantee
good breeding stock Of high pro-
ducing ability. Brooding with
proper brooding equipment in a
brooder house of good type and
with brooder yards given special
care previous to the brooding sea-
son to assure their being free from
diseases and pests. Best practices
for feeding during the brooding
period followed by proper feeding
so as to bring about the develop
ment of a pullet which will not
come into lay until they have the
necessary weight. These pullets
should go into a laying house of
good type, good ventilation and be
fed and cared for, that good prod
uction should be obtained from
them.
One of the big problems as seen
by the producer for this section
is the disposal of the product aft
er its production. At the White
Bluffs meeting, Mr.. Buchanan, the
extension specialist in poultry, ex-
pressed the opinion that it would
be possible for a poultryman in
that community, with proper sized
flock to ship eggs to the Cooper
alive in Seattle, paying the freight
charges and still make money. if
ne had a flock having high pro-
duction. 1t would seem advisable
to produce part of the feed and
since corn can be raised so well in
that community as well as other
sections Of the country, it is pos
sIble that corn would make a good
cash crop with the idea of its be-
ing fed to the poultry flock instead
OF being sold. Some farmers of
that community are already pur-
chasing wheat from farmers in
the wheat section to the east and
poultrymen of various sections of
the country are purchasing grain
from farmers more and more.
1t has been stressed at all of
these meetings, that the business
side Of the poultry production must
be given more consideration. This
is brought out in proper size of
the flock to enable the farmers to
use his time profitable. Mr.. Buch-
anan defined side line flock as
a flock of not less than 400 birds
and the least flock that one could
expect to make an income for the
farmer, must be a 1200-bird flock
and this can only be true when
production is at least compare
lively high.
At both the Prosser and Kenne-
wick meetings, it was felt that
greater attention should be given
to definite movement toward CO.
operation on the part Of the poul-

Power Increased
Essex power has been increased
% per cent and the Hudson power
Ia per cent. There is increased
torque, or pull, at low speeds which
reflects directly on acSeleration
and gives greater power in hill
climbing in both lines. The 1929
Hudson develops 90 horsepower
and. Essex, the Challenger, 55
horsepower. The former has a
speed range CUP to 85 miles an
hour and the latter's top pace is
