Under the plan the department will aid the families to produce

NEW CHICK RATION
DEVELOPED AT W.S.C.

Poultrymen in Benton county will be
interested in the new breeding ration
developed by State College poultrymen
and available in Poultry Pointers No.
25" at his office, County Agent Waldo
w. Skuse announced this week.
The breeding ration was developed
and tested by the Washington State
College poultry department, Western
Washington experiment station and
the agricultural extension service. It
was fed successfully to many breeding
hocks in the state last year, and all
poultrymen who have used it are en-
thusiastic about it, Skuse said. Some
poultrymen have liked the ration so
well they are feeding it to their COM
mercial hocks. 1t is not designed for
this purpose, and may be too expensive,
but it certainly is good laying ration
as we'll as a good breeders ration.
A breeders ration will not take the
place of careful management and sell
ection, but it will supplement these
things and add to them. The percent
age of hatchibility depends primarily
on Vitamin G.. The quality and Iva
bility of chicks depends on Vitamin
A. Vitamin D adds it's part to both
hatchability and INABILITY. All these
vitamins and others are found in the
washington Breeders Ration"

POSTPONE STATE
BAN ANOTHER YEAR
BY w. w. skuse, County Agent

10y w. W. 0huSC3 SOu1Aty 616CAt
The date after which there is state
order against selling dairy products
from COWS that are not free of Bangs
disease does not become effective I'M
til January l, 1887, instead of January
| l, 1896. However, it is uncertain how
long federal money will be available
for payments to owners of condemned
stock or whether more money will be
appropriated for this purpose.
The problem of whether or not there
is Bangs disease in herd is one that
eventually has to be faced. There may
be some justification for a man who
has a lot of cheap feed on hand to
hold animals that may be diseased
while the butterfat price remains good.
There is the chance, of course, that
while this is being done the disease
dtions man would do well to keep
the suspected animals separate from
the others and then try to get the tests
as soon as the butter fat price drops
next summer.
The main reason, of course, for fight
ing this disease is an economic one of
production and many animals which
apparently have recovered from this
disease are spreading it to others.
Approximately 100 head of cattle
have been tested in the county by
federal veterinarians up to the pres
ent time, with $500 head now awaiting
the test and more applications COM
ing in daily. It is interesting to note
how different sources of infection have
served to spread the disease. In one
part of the county for the last 1872
head tested, only five per cent were
found to have the disease and yet the
persons in whose herds the disease
was found had quite often secured the
animals from a certain locality. In an
other part of the county where dis
eased animals were brought in and
mingled with others some years ago,
as high as 26 per cent of the cattle
were found to be infected
DR.. M. o. Barnes who has been
working part time on T.B. and Bangs
tests, has been placed on T.B. testing
straight and is now working in the
Benton City area, having completed
T.B. testing in the White Bluffs Han
ford, Hover and Finley areas. DR.. Ed
ward Griesinger has worked nearly a
month in the western part of the
county but has been given Yakima and
Klickitat counties exclusively. Since
the middle of this month no Bangs
testing has been done in this county
and there will be no more until DR..
Marvin E. Anderson completes some
work in Walla Walla and Franklin
counties. We are endeavoring to Sc
cure permission from the Bureau of
Animal Industry supervisor for this
territory to have DR.. Anderson COM
plete all applications in this county
before leaving the county and to start
testing very soon.

RESPONSE OF D'ANJOU
PEARS TO FERTILIZER

From five years experimental obser-
vations it has been determined that
the response of the d'Anjour pear to
applications of fertilizers on soils of
the lower Yakima valley is comparable
with those reported for the Jonathan
apple in the Wenatchee valley by F..
l.. Overley and E. L. Overholser. Nj
trogen appears to be the first limiting
soil fertility factor in the growth and
production of pears. Where nitrogen Is
deficient, as indicated by tree response,
approximately three quarters pound of
actual nitrogen may be profitably an
nually applied per tree in orchards
where leguminous cover crops are not
being grown.
In orchards where nitrogen is def
cient, applications of heterogeneous fer
tilizers tend to increase vegetative
vigor, as measured by terminal growth,
green color and size of leaves, and
trunk circumference, and to affect the
crop by slightly improving the size and
the yield of fruit. Experimental evil
dence indicates no additional direct
value from either PHOSPHORUS or po-
tassium together without nitrogen or
in combination with nitrogen. Applica-
tions of fertilizers have no significant
effect upon the development of the
trouble known as cork spot" of the
d'nAjou pears.

Europe as in this country. Across the
Atlantic the dandelion is highly priced
az green and is cultivated for table
purposes. Its flower, too, is used in
preparing wine which is held in high
favor by those who use 1t. It lures a

REHABILITATION TO
END RELIEF, Is AIM

Rural rehabilitation is not farm
relief program but program to enc
farm relief, and place distressed fam
lilies back on self sustaining basis, &C
cording to H. E. Drew, state director
Olympia Instead of buying milk for
a family on relief, a rehabilitation loan
enables the family to buy a COW and
other necessary capital goods to place
the farm once more on a productive
basis.
The resettlement administration esti-
mates that about half the farmers in
Washington who are on relief have no
credit facilities available, are on po-
tentially productive farms and can be
placed on their feet through a three
fold program of debt adjustment, a
loan for necessary capital goods and
a suitable farm management plan.
Rehabilitation is a sound farm pro-
gram based on sound farm plan
and loans that can be repaid, says the
director. Four basic principles apply
to farmers eligible for rehabilitation.
These are:
1. All credit facilities of the farmer
such as local banks, land banks and
other possibilities must be exhausted
although the farmer need not be on
a relief roll.
2. He must be bona fide farmer
with sufficient farm experience and
background to be competent oper-
ator.
3. The acreage and quality of soil
in the farm must be adequate to pro-
duce under proper management live
lihood for the family in normal times.
4. A farm management plan and
budget must be set up and approved
that with necessary purchase Of capital
goods will place the farm on pro-
ductive basis, enable it to carry a rea-
sonable debt load in normal times and
permit repayment of the loan over
period of years.
Subsistence grants can be made to
farm families now on rehabilitation
rolls or potential clients who require
food, clothing, medical attention or
other subsistence goods until plans
for their rehabilitation can be COM
pleted.

the basin of the Orinoco and the dis
trict surrounding the Gulf Of Mara

grown and exported and wheat and
other cereals thrive. The mountains
are heavily wooded and many useful
trees and plants are found. The mines
produce gold, silver, copper and lead.
The various asphalt lakes yields the
best quality Of asphalt; along the
coast many pearls are obtained. Total
