w. s. C. AUTHORITIES
DISCUSS CALF CARE

"A calf should receive whole milk
for the first fifteen days of its ex-
istence," declare E. v. Ellington and
J. C. Knott of the State College
dairy husbandry department. 1T is
best to supply the mothers milk for
the first four or five days"
".After the first few days, salts
factory results can be obtained if
milk from the herd is supplied, but
care should be taken not to give the
very young calf fror-. cows that are
far advanced in their lactation period.
At the end of the first two weeks,
skim milk may be gradually sub
stituted for whole milk, and if the
calf is vigorous this change may be
completed in a week or ten days.
Usually the substitution of skim milk
is made at the rate of one pound per
day. The amount of milk given at
the end of the fourth week will vary
from eight to twelve pounds depend
ing upon the breed, size and appetite
of the calf. This is gradually increased
up to 10 or 10 pounds at the emo
of three months. 1t is usually not
economical to feed more than 20
pounds at any time. Dairyinen often
make mistakes by guessing the
amount of milk fed each day. Milk
should be weighed. No one can ac-
curately enough measure by estimate
the amount which is fed"

GAS WELL SCHOOL TIES
UP WITH BENTON CITY

By unanimous vote in the Gas Well
community and with only one dis
senting vote in the Kiona- Benton
School District the consolidation OF
these two districts was made last
week and declared by County Super
intendent Olaf Strandwold. The law
requires that a consolidated district
be given number, and henceforth this
district will be known as Consoli-
dated District No. So.
The Gas Well district until re-
Gently belonged to School District
No. II. Through the development OF
the gas field this community last fall
suddenly had an influx of people and
by Nov. had eight children of
school age. Between this community
and the old school house is a noun
tain barrier, making it impossible for
the children to get to the school
house. The school directors and pat
rons were equal to the emergency,
however, and by Nov. 10th brand
new school house was ready at the
Gas Well and school was in full
swing.
This year it was found that Dis
trict No. IL had had too low val
uation to finance two schools, and it
therefore became necessary to at
tach the Gas Well community to
Kiona--Benton and transport the pu-
pills to that school. The day follow
ing the consolidation with Kiona-
Benton the school board ordered a
,ecial bus for the transportation of
the children at the Gas Wells-now
about 10 pupils. The Kiona- Benton
school district is pioneering in dis
trict-owned bus lines and is getting
along very well. Income from the
Gas Well district, including the con-
solidation bonus, will nicely take
care Of the transportation of those
pupils.

COLLEGE URGES WHEAT
AS POULTRY FOOD

"Wheat is one of the best grains
for feeding poultry. It is palataole
readily digested, usually is fed in the
scratch mixture of poultry ration
for its carbohydrate value, and Is an
ideal grain for this purpose" de-
clared L. w. Cassel, assistant pro
fessor of poultry husbandry at Wash
ington State College.
Like other grains, it should not
be used as the only feed for poultry,
as it is deficient in some of the pro-
teins and minerals which are essential
in poultry feed, but according to ex-
periments conducted by the agricul-
tural experiment station it can De
used in much larger quantities tor
poultry feed than usually is the case, =
says Mr.. Cassel. "As general rule,
wheat, being a staple human fooo,
is too high priced to be used in AMI
NAL feeding in large quantities, but IN
exceptional cases as at present with
the large supply of cheap wheat ana
the limited supply of expensive Corn,
poultrymen should take advantage OF
this situation by incorporating more
"ACol Ill sA1Sh PoIAeiy LoeioiiS'
Wheat ranks close to corn in FEED
ing value for poultry. Corn has ap-
proximately 80 pounds of total d.
gestible nutrients per 100 pounds
when fed to poultry, and wheat APP
proximately 1875 pounds. With the
present price situation it is good econ
omics to use as much wheat in the
scratch mixture as is justified with
out altering the feeding value Of
the ration.
The following is good scratch
mixture which can be used to ad-
vantage: 300 pounds of wheat, lou
pounds of cracked yellow corn and SC
pounds of heavy oats.
While yellow corn is superior to
wheat in it's vitimin content, particu-
larly in vitinin A, this can be offset
by feeding larger quantities of green
feed such as alfalfa leaves and bios
SONS or by the addition OF fresh cod
liver oil to the ration.

LIKES APPLE PROSPECTS

"The apple situation as it now
stands certainly looks encouraging
for Washington producers" declares
1. c. Haut, who received his masters
degree in horticulture at the State
College recently, and who is now at
the University of Maryland.
Haut states that the Virginia apple
crop has been reduced considerably
through the growers efforts to pre-
serve the trees rather than the crops.
This situation, he declares, will bring
a greater demand for apples grown
in the Northwest.

In trying to keep up with July's
record, August was another hot spot
for 1880, at least during the first
half of the month. The hottest day
was on the 9TH when the thermometer
registered 100 degrees, but during
the cool nights of the 21st and 9th,
the temperature dropped to 81 degrees.
While July had absolutely no preci-
pitation, August registered .0l of an
inch. There were &c clear days, two
partly cloudy and three cloudy, dur
ing the month, according to Gabriel
Jaddan in charge of the weather
station at Wahluke.

Primary
Election
Next Tuesday
Candidates Case Goes To
Jury of Voters
September 9

Despite the fact that this is an "off-
year" in politics, voters generally
are exhibiting a good deal of in
terest in political affairs, particularly
the various contests for county office.
Most Of the candidates whose fates
will be settled in the primary cleo
ton have made personal visits to the
different precincts in the county to
present first hand their claims to
the office to which they aspire. And
the voters generally have their minds
pretty we'll made up as to whom they
will support in the different con-
tests.
Out of a total of SIS registered
voters, it is expected that the three
precincts in the northern part of the
county will cast approximately 500
ballots, divided as follows: Columbia
(up-river) Is; White Bluffs 295; and
Hanford 1875.
The voting places in the three
precincts, as designated by the Off
cial notices, are: Columbia precinct,
Vernita school house; Liberty hall at
White Bluffs and at Weber hall in
Hanford.
The polls will be open at 8 a. m.
and will close at p. m.

showing the assembled handcraft OF
the young people than ever before.
Here will this year be staged the
fashion show put on by the club
girls, which last year attracted so
much favorable attention in the
Woman's building, the young work
ers expressing a preference for
their own quarters for the event.
H. M. Walker, recently appointed
specialist in boys and girls club
work with the State College, will
have charge of the activities during
State fair week in Yakima. He re-
Gently completed a tour of the state,
engaged in checking on prepara-
lions for the Fair, and declared that
INTEREST had never been so early In
evidence or so pronounced.
ALL CLUBS ACTIVE
Sheep and cattle clubs, sewing
and cooking clubs-they're all get
ting primed for the big state con-
tests. Walker especially called
attention to the fact that a whole
carload of club dairy cattle will be
brought to the Fair by County
Agent F. d. Yeager of Chehalis and
that County Agent A. w. Hollan
will duplicate the notable showing
from Clallam.
Worthy Of note is the contribu-
ton that young club workers will
this year make the State Fair
swine show. Two years ago when
eight ton litters were entered, Sec.
rotary Lawson and DR.. r. j. Dono-
hue, superintendent of the livestock
division, declared it a record. This
year, there have already been en-
tered for this popular competition,
IA, ton litters, all the offerings OF
All members.
Walker asserts there is the keen
est interest being shown this season
in the health contests. The reason
Is easily seen. In former years,
county winners have gone to the
State Fair contests, hoping to win
there and secure the priced trip to
the Chicago International Livestock
show, where the final elimination
of the nations best corn-fed girls
and boys occurred. This year, the
Chicago winners are to be given q
trip to Paris. Interested? Who
wouldn't be? Maybe Washington
will share in this rosy-chce'red vic
tory!
