ROSEBURG NEWS-REvTeW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, MONDAY, APRIL 14, 1941 TWO i Some Profit In Is Under normal economic condi tions operators who have ample brooding equipment and favor able market; outlets may convert surnlus lechorn cockerels into a marketable product nt a small profit per bird. Such Is the con clusion reached by representa tives of, the poultry and agricul tural. nhglneerlnR departments of the Oregon experiment; station, who have been conducting ex periments on cockerel rearing at the request ol, yrogon pomiry- men. .. . A new bulletin recording, the results of the experiments and suggesting the ' most practical methods yet found for handling cockerels has Just- been Issued, written by W. Tl Cooney and V. E: Price. This bulletin, No. 38G, is called "Surplus Leghorn. Cock erels as Broilers." ' i One of the results of the ex periment whs the ' development of an O. S. C. broiler ration; Be cause Oregon produces a surplus of grain as well as a surplus' of leghorn ' day-old cockerels, at tempt was made to produce a sat isfactory ration which would con sist largely of bulk grains which would be fed separately at less cost than where all-mash feeds were used. ' ;' f An O. S.. C. broiler ninsh was developed w hich consists of a re latively fast growing ration con taining nn efficient balance of quality proteins that would per mit the fpeding ' of liberal amounts' of lower priced grains. It was found that, the best ration is the most efficient growing rather' than a fattening on. Tests were made with rearing broilers In batteries as well as on floors. The battery-reared leg-' horn broilers were approximate ly a week ahead of the floor-reared birds' a eight weeks, and the hattery-renred Rhode Island Reds made more efficient gains than the leghorns for the same per iod.

Mrs. Thea Itefsal and family have been eating 1040 apples fresh from their orchard. A ; olio of apples, left on the ground last fall, became covered with snow. The snow was remov ed recently and the fruit was found Just as tasty and fresh as when It was first picked, Marketing Day Lively Event For 4-H Club Visitors Griffin, Nichols Again to Officiate At Turkey Show Announcement has been made by the Northwestern Turkey Breeders association, sponsors of the annual Northwest Turkey show held in Oakland, Ore., that i H.

Douelas fir fence posts used untreated have given better serv ice in the experimental ' post farm at Oregon State college than those charred, or treated with asphalt emulsion, according to the latest progress on pre servative treatment of fence posts, prepared by T. J. Starker, professor of forestry, and issued by the Oregon engineering ex periment station. All, of, the untreated, charred, and asphalt emulsion treated Douglas fir posts, set some 10 years ago, nave nuw idut-u auu oeen removea, as nave several, other species included in the 1442 posts which are under tpst, since the experiment started. Un treated Douglas fir gave average service of. 82 months, charred Douglas fir average service of 76 months, and the asphalt emul sion treated Douglas fir only 75 months, or slightly over- six years. Other species that nave com pletely failed with an average service of, from 41 to six years are Cottonwood, alder, madrone, big-leaf, maple, and small-sized cascara posts. The various cedar i and Juniper posts are still in good. condition after 10 years and none of the Douglas tir posts treatpd by the . so-called, salt method have failed. Douglas fir posts treated with crank-case oil and creosote have not lasted as well as those treat: ed. with creosote alone. A post Laws," Some ol Dr. Dreesen's findings, made available prior to publication, are reflected in the new legislation. This experiment station bulle tin, No. 384, shows that a total of $470,249.93 was collected In 1938 for fire protection purposes in Oregon, This fund was collected from "tax roll!' lands, from mem bers of, protective associations, and state, ; federal and. county' contributions. Former Oregon laws required that all' owners of timber lands should provide adequate protec tion against fire, while the recent bills Just passed correct some of the weaknesses In the former laws, in the opinion of state and college forest officials. by JOHN CUNTON My nciKliWs wile y ii know, llio cm' witli nrrtlv fCVg ryr, lli.il I HU vyr tn borrow lut g1 t.Tfromi'Wr-ll, r she's tlio most contradictory lillli minx I ever saw.

Of all spreaders tested in the past ten years, it has been found the most satisfactory material consid ering effectiveness, availability, and cost. Directions for making the spreader are contained in a new circular of information, No. 236.' Wool Growers Assured Protection in ploJh Buy WASHINGTON, April 14. (API Donald M. Nelson, defense director, of purchases, said that his office would confer with wool growers' representatives and agree with them "on a method of determining a fair price for do mestic wool" when bids are asked on cloth. "The growers have felt that if the government places its orders after the wool clip has been mar keted," Nelson said, "the grower does not get the benefit he should from the government program, i think their position is fair and j we intend to do everything we can to help the domestic wool grower know how much and .when the government Is going to buy." In addition to seeking determi nation of a fair price for domestic wool, Nelson said the government would discuss with growers the riiffpi-nntlal hntwppn foreien and domestic wool in an effort to find a level which would mean "a fair 1 and reasonable price" to the do- j mestic grower. Fruit, Vegetable Packing Plants Face. Inspection - FRESNO, Calif,, April 19. (AP) -An inspection of all fresh fruitand vegetable packing plants in the west, to insure compliance with federal wage and hour pro vision for workers, will be under taken immediately. Wesley, O.

Plants confining their op erations to dried fruits or dehy drated, fruit, packing will not be Inspected. A' minimum of 30 cents an hour was established in the wage-hour act. Ash said the violations his insDectors expect to find will be on the part of those who deliber ately seek to evade tne law, oi approximate this effect through careless indifference." Six. Oregon Dairies Fail To Meet Sanitary Rules Because they did not meet state sanitaiy requirements, six mini- mum requirement, traines were closed for retail trade in March, according to records of the foods and dairies division of the state department of agriculture, une of the dairies was permitted to reopen after meeting require ments. Twelve similar, dairies were granted a certain, period of time in. which to make repairs. Carelessness in sanitary mat: ters also caused, temporary clos ing of two restaurants and.a time limit to meet changes was given another one. One beer parlor was ordered to clean up immediately.

Rosebtirg, Oregon Fighting Forest, Fires Calls for Tall Financing Coincident with the adoption of a comprehensive forestry pro gram by the Oregon legislature, comes the publication of the re sults of a study by Dr. W. H. Dreescn, agricultural economist at Oregon State college, entitled "Financing Fire Protection for Timber Lands Under Oregon I SEE US! For Your FARM NEEDS VOL. Ill NO. 15. Published Weekly by the Douglas County Flour Mills Mfgrs. of Umpqua and Sunrjseoujtry anDgiry Feeds APRIL 14, 1941 Broiler Rations We hear a lot these days ibout "Broiler nations, and how efficient they are In produc ing quick and cheap gains on flyers and broiler chicks. Sev- rat iced companies hit mtiKin-; broiler rations, and they are selling at pretty high prices. So far. the Douglas (jointly rimir Mill lias not slocked nn exclu sive broiler ration, hut when, and If, they do prove to be bet ter ami more economical, we will make one that will com pare with the best on the mar ket anil nl the usual savini! over the price of other good brands of feed. For anvone interested In pro ducing broilers and fryers, we would advise tnem getting u. bulletin No. :tSti, which dis cusses work done at the State I0ner ment Station on Broiler Halion compared to Chick Stai ler Mash. We have lust none over this bulletin carefully, compared their formulas with ours, and noted the gains they have ob tained. After a careful check, we have decided that Umpqua Chick Starter with scratch is still the cheapest and Ik'sI feed ing method for broiler or fryer product ion. The Stale Station recom mends feeding either the Broiler itation or Chick Starter with grain and grit fed free choice after the first week. They find that chicks will eat altout two (Kilts mash to one scratch, thereby lowering the cost of gains 'compared with straight mush. We have found that sys tem to be Im-sI also. C.rnwers using Umpqua Chick Starter and Scratch have had ns good, and in many cases belter gains than those reported III the Station Bulletin, and from fig ures which thev have shown us. we KNOW thev are getting some NET lMlOI-TT fivm our system. If you have not already, be sure to stall your next bunch of broilers on the tried and true Umpqua Chick Starter, with free choice of that fine clean Ump qua chick scratch. Cow Tales Many cows are freshening (hese dajs, and it Is interesting to guess, by the flesh they carry, how long they will be able to keep filling the milk pail twice dally. The ones receiving no grain, or a deficient ration are showing it already by promin ent ribs and high hip hones. And (list as soon as the lush grass Is cleaned up. their production will fade with the pasture. Hasn't It always? As concrete evidence, we of fer the herd of Dr. Stewart, which has been assembled from here and there; but by feeding his cows plenty of grain, (OK Chop, if you please), and green reed, they are coming out near the top of my tested "heap." We quote a Malheur dairy man: "1 do not believe that grain feeding the year around can be Judged In dollars and cents return. Its advantages Ho chiefly In the ability of grain to replace food value in hay of questionable quality, builds a stronger nnd more vigorous constitution, better and stronger calves, that will eventually make better producing cows." Why not put the svstem In force on your ranch. NOW? Overhead of Cows The overhead expense of maintaining a dairy herd Is much higher than it should be. Of .'15 million daily cows In the U. S., one third do not pay for their feed, one third barely does, and the other third make the farmer a profit. That means the average farm er raises three heifers to pro ducing age, to get one good cow. Roughly, it costs S75.0O to bring a heifer into milk production. That means the AVERAGE cost ol raising a good cow is $L'25.00. You, nor nobody else, can af ford that, when by better breed ing, and good feeding, you can do the same thing for barely more than one third the cost. Get a good bull, test the cows, and feed PLENTY of Umpqua and Sunrise Dairy Feeds. Milk, Meat, Fish and Liver All these things are mighty good for chickens and turkeys. They all cost a lot of money. Many feeds do not contain more than' two of these Items, and only the best have all four. The combination of all four is much hotter than two or three, and liver meal especially, is one of the best ingredients that can be Included In feeds for chickens and turkeys. Umpqua Breeder's Mash and ALL Umpqua Starter and De veloping -Mashes, whether for chicks or poults, contain all four of these important animal pro tein elements in the proper pro portion for the best growth and ilevelonment of vour birds. In tact. In the manufacture of ALL Umpqua and sunrise icons, the cost of the inL'redlents is not considered. The formulas are made tin nronerlv. as a first consideration. Then, the cost Is computed, nnd they are sold at the lowest flL'iire nosslble.
