FEED CHICKENS WHEAT,
SAYS POULTSRY EXPERT

Washington poultrymen can help
themselves and at the same time
do their bit towards farm relief
by feeding their chickens as much
wheat as the ration will stand.
suggests w. d. Buchanan, extern
sion poultryman, State College Of
Washington. Wheat is cheap and
abundant and generally speaking
the grain mixture should be chang
ed in proportion to the price of
grain.
AS long as wheat is cheaper than
corn, the poultryman would do
we'll to use grain mixture for the
laying flock of three parts wheat,
two corn and one oats. Three w,
S. C. mixtures for the laying flock
include two parts wheat, one corn
and one oats; two parts wheat, one
corn and two oats; or two parts
wheat, two corn and one oats.
When ration heavy in wheat
and low in yellow corn is used q
little more attention must be giver
to the green feed supply. Yellow
corn is rich in vitamin A, which
is somewhat deficient in wheat
This can be remedied by feeding
an extra amount of tender greer
feed, or by feeding third-cuttine
leafy alfalfa hay, chopped in on
half inch lengths, in wire hoppers

WATCH PULLETs CAREFULLY

This is the period in the life of
the pullet when they must be
watched carefully if they are to
come into the laying house in good
condition. While it is true that the
flock requires comparatively little
attention, yet care must be taken
to see that the ration is producing
the right results or changes should
be made.
The pullets should not develop
the large comb or reach maturity
at too young a age. This must be
checked before the development has
been carried too far or else the
birds must be allowed to go ahead
and complete their development or
one will throw them into mott.
When pullets have come to the
stage when they show that they
have reached sexual maturity by
the development of large combs
then they should be segregated
from the remainder of the flock
and fed a laying ration Birds
which have not reached this per-
iod should be still continued on the
developing ration. Remember that
during the development period pull
lets should have heavy grain ra-
ton in the morning and then al
lowed to consume mash during the
day on range. When birds go into
the laying house, however, they
should have a limited grain ration
IN the morning so as to bring abou.
a good consumption of mash dur
ing the day.
A we'll developed pullet of good
size and weight for the breed is
essential to good production of
standard eggs during the winter
months.

TWO FARMERS ORDER
QUARTER TON CELEBRATES

Two farmers of the county, one
in the Hanford community and
the other in the Benton county
community, have ordered better
than quarter of ton of chlor-
ates for the control of perennial
weeds on their farms. They say
while CELEBRATES are expensive with
distribution of weeds over the
farm would be still more expensive
and attempts at control by culti-
walton seems to offer nothing in
the way of cheaper control.
A quarter of ton will treat
approximately an acre of ground.

coupled with an extensive wheat
feeding program and slowing up
in the wheat movement to mar

as to the best method OF FEEDING
wheat can be obtained by any
farmer from his county agent, OF
by writing to the agricultural col
lege of his state. Under existing
conditions, at anything like the
present prices of wheat and corn
a large part of the surplus wheat
can be profitably used as feed fol-
livestock.
Reports are reaching US that
some farmers sire selling their
wheat and buying feed. Where
wheat stocks are still on farms in
livestock producing areas, it viii
be good business to hold such
stock and feed them out. Local ell
evators may find ready market
for wheat as feed in the local COM
munity. The livestock feeder who
is holding up the purchase of ami
mails because of the prospective
corn shortage will do well to con-
slider the purchase of wheat at the
present prices to meet his require
ments for grain for feeding pur-
poses.
when herds of either beef cat
tie or dairy stock are unduly de-
pleted by such conditions as are
now threatening, it takes years of
work to get back to normal posi-
ton. Bankers and business men in
agricultural communities are war
ranted in extending every assist
ance possible to help cattle grow
ers and dairymen to purchase the
feed necessary to maintain their
herds. The farm board receives
thousands of letters from business
men expressing sympathy for the
famer and interest in the agricul-
tural problem, and asking what
they can do to help. BY rendering
aid to the livestock men in this
emergency they will be helping in
a very material way.
"While the use of wheat for feed
will help in meeting the present
emergency, the growing of wheat
as a feed for livestock cannot be
considered a profitable enterprise
under normal conditions. The only
way to improve the wheat price
situation permanently is to work
definitely toward reduction Of the
annual wheat production of the
United States.
'sThe Federal Farm Board is re-
ceiving many communications
from people turnout the wheat
growing sections to the effect that
the American farmer is planning
to make substantial reduction in
the acreage seeded to wheat this
fall. 1t seems rather certain this
will be done, not merely because
this board has suggested such ac-
ton, but for the more convincing
reason that even low-cost produc-
ers cannot raise wheat profitably
at present prices.
sThe movement toward wheat
acreage reduction is well under
way. The more thoughtful farmers
already have decided upon reduc-
ed paintings this fall. The time is
opportune for them to make their.
intentions known to the world.
This they can do by communicate
ting with the manager and direc-
tors of the cooperative associations
or general farm organization with
which they are affiliated. During
the next few weeks farm organ
izations can profitably give the
discussion of wheat acreage adjust
ment an important place on their
programs.
IF these things are done, in our
judgment they will have very
material influence in bringing
about a substantial improvement
in wheat prices, thus getting for
the farmer, in the price he receives
for his 1880 crop, some of the adj
vantages that should accrue 20
him thru the reduced produc-
