If you have chickens it is quite prob
able that more eggs will be laid dur
ing the spring and early summer than
the family can use. Some of these
surplus eggs can be saved by putting
them down in waterglass, so as to
have more available for the winter
months when the hens do not lay so
well. Fresh eggs properly preserved
may be kept in good condition for
cooking purposes for eight to twelve
months.

GIVE DAIRY COW
PROPER FEEDING
Liberal Ration Increases the
Milk Production Later.

Giving the dairy COW q good start
by proper feeding throughout her dry
period is sure way to help her
freshen in a desirable condition, says
G. L. Blackman, dairy specialist at
Ohio State university.
A COW beginning her lactation In
low condition, he states, may produce
less than 20 per cent as much milk as
she produces when she freshens in
good condition. Apparently cows
freShening i'm low condition produce
less than their possible capacity
throughout the entire lactation period.
Progressive dairymen who keep rec
ords and study their cows have learned
this fact from experience. Blackman
points out. They have found that the
most profitable feed is that fed during
the dry period.
AS soon as the COW is dry she should
be fed according to her condition. Ii
she is in good flesh, very little except
a good legume hay and silage, or pas
ture, need be given during this time.
However, if she is in poor flesh it is
best to feed literally. Instead of a
high protein ration the dry cow re-
quires one that is light and laxative.
If a high quality legume hay is
available, he suggests that the ration
contain 400 pounds of corn or corn
and cob meal, 200 pounds oats, 100
pounds wheat, 100 pound wheat bran,
and 100 pounds linseed oil meal or soy
bean meal.
If only poor roughage, such as tim
othy hay, oat straw, or corn slower Is
available, it is usually best to increase
the oil meal or soy bean meal by 80
per cent.

Drinking Cups Increase
Cows Yield of Milk

A dairyman recently said that of
all the improvements that he had put
into his dairy farm the one which
brought him the most returns in &C
tual dollars was drinking cups for his
cows. Another dairyman found by &C
tual figures that the drinking cups not
only saved lot of work, but have also
greatly increased the milk production

drinking cups knows that cows. like

ply is convenient, particularly when

Dairy Hints

There is no best breed of dairy
cattle.
The re .k-bottom essentials of good
dairy barn are that it be clean, well
ventilated and well lighted.
Niggardly feeding of good cows is
mistaken economy; likewise, liberal
feeding Of poor cows is just as poor
practice.
Proper feeding, culling, and manage
ment of the average dairy herd, COM
bined with breeding for high produc-
ton, will give the highest dairy re-
turns.
Breeding records eliminate guess
work as to calving dates and permit
the dairyman to dry up the COW
reasonable length Of time before she
Is due to freshen.
For tillable pasture land that has
gone to weeds, breaking may be best;
this to be followed by a fall nurse
crop for the pasture grasses after a
cultivated crop in the spring and sum-
mer.
Grubs are beginning to show in the
old cows by this time. 1t is recon-
mended that stockmen look for them
80 as to remove them from the cows
hides. The grubs may be removed as
soon as the hole is cut through the
hide by gently pressing 1t out.
Comparing corn silage with corn
fodder for feeding dairy cows. expert
ments conducted by the North Dakota
experiment station revealed that the
cows on trial produced per cent
more butterfat on silage than on fod-
der.
For dairy cows, wheat and barley
have the same feeding value per ton.
Do not use over 600 pounds of wheat
in a ton of dairy feed; it is too con-
centrated.
Cattle need roughage in the ration.
Where the supply of hay and silage
is limited the amount fed may be
somewhat less than usual but substi-
tuting concentrates for a large part
of the roughage should not be at
tempted. 1t is better to make use of

SOUTHWEST OIL
FIELDS REJOICE

lo-Cent Increase Promises
Regeneration for Indus

OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. Eco
nomic rejdvenation was promised
the southwest's mid-continent oil
area today as an increase Of Is
cents a barrel for crude oil became
effective in Oklahoma, Kansas and
north Texas.
The increase, which went into
effect at 8 this morning, added ap-
. proximately $225,O00 a day TO the
income of oil operators in the three
states. The oil industry's daily in
come in this section formerly was
S99O,OO0, and now will be approx
mately $1,215,00O.
The new price schedule, placing
the top for a barrel of crude oil at
30 cents compared to % cents in
July, was announced Saturday by
the Continental Oil Company of
Ponca City. -Four other large pur-
chases, Phillips, Barnsdall Vickers
and Wilcox Oil and Gas, followed.
Expect Price to Reach 81
The vast fields of the three states,
either closed in or curtailed because
of overproduction and the resultant
low price of oil, all will be in opera
ton again by spring, oil operators
predicted. Thousands of men will
be employed Retineries will re-
open The oil industry is definitely
on the economic upgrade.
The price of oil will reach 81 a
barrel, oil men agreed.
In this increase, I see a step to
higher prices" said E. B. Reeser,
president of the American Petro-
leum institute.
Since early spring the Mid-Conti-
nent areas oil industry has been
hard pressed. Ovcerproduction and
low prices made it impossible to OPP
crate at a profit. Thousands of men
we're laid off and the whole south
west was forced to shoulder the
burden.
Murray Started Recovery
Determined the price of oil should

make a return and where the state
could receive its rightful income in
taxes, Governor William H. CAL
falfa Bid Murray declared martial
law and shut down Oklahoma's
flush fields. Governor Ross Sterl-
ing did likewise with the huge East
Texas field. Kansas fields were
shut in.
The price of oil then went to APP
proXimately so cents a barrel then
TO 70 cents. After two months, the
wells reopened, under proration
laws.
The increase had been anticipat-
ed for three weeks. but wheels of
the whole industry stood motionless
as operators waited. Now that it
has come, they agreed, conditions
will improve.
