"Save That Pig"
Suggested Slogan
' For Coming Year
An extra pltf saved lit birth
nuiy mean an extra hog raised to
. market, points out II. A. Lind
" gren, extension animal husband
man nt O. S. C, In connection
wllh the current national cam
palKn to Inc'iease hog production
10 per cent next year.
Secretary Wicknrd, a success-
fill hog raiser himself, knows the
. Importance of saving every
- young pig possible as well as to
, avoid loss In growing them. An
extra pig saved from each litter
would provide most of the 10 per
cent increase, says Llndgren.
Pointers that may help In
. saving that extra pig as given
by Llndgren Include the follow
ing: 1. Mark down the date of 114
days from the breeding day.
: 2. Have the sow in comfortable
' quarters a week before, she far
rows. 3. Provide "gadgets" to protect
Hie pigs from being crushed by
the sow such as fender rails or
electric brooders.
4. Have satchel ready and be
on hand when pig;) arrive.
5. Stand by lo give iilenlion to
the young arrivals. Revive them
I if necessary by slapping gently
. on the sides. Clear mucus from
1 nostrils so they can breath.
Warm them by placing them In
a tub next lo a Jug filled with
warm water. As soon as they are
on their feet, hold them to the
sow so they can get a few swal
lows of milk, then keen them
away until she Is through fur
rowing.. 0. Give the sow no feed -nothing
but warmed water for
12 lo 2i hours.
7. For ll;e next few days pro
vide sow wl.h liquid feoi's, mien
as milk or :i slop made by mix
ing grain with water, preferably
warm.
8. After thar, provide all the
feed she will eat.
!). Watch litters religiously lo
guard against disease.
10. Sanitation In the hog lot
Is essential to save pigs from
parasites, necrotic enteritis and
the like.
Cattle Grubs Put
In Saboteur Class
The cattle grub, heel fly, or
"warble", as It Is variously call
ed, Is now considered nut only a
serious pest of all cattle hut is
a war saboteur as well, as it re
duces milk Mow from dairy cows
and seriously damages hides lli.it
are needed for leather.
These cattle grubs are common
In Oregon as in other stales,
says D. .1. N. Shaw, O. S. C.
veterinarian, bill special work on
this pest has not been carried on
here because of more pressing
disease and animal pest prob
lems, be said. USDA research
has. however, developed several
controls for the cattle grub.
Tile one to use depends on the
size anil kind of herd. Ilotenone
powder when mixed with wri
table sulphur and water is ellec
live when applied as a spray to
tlie backs of animals In an ordin
ary entile chute. Smaller herds
may be treated by rubbing Iodo
form ointment into each grill)
hole. Where only a lew animals
are infesled, grubs may be
squeezed out with lingers or for
ceps.
Loans Offered to
Potato Growers
WASIIINCTON. Nv. '.'.'I (AIM
The agrieultiu-e dearliiienl an

making loans at rales averaging
SI.!)") per hundred pounds for Nit.

Other glades will be supported
at rales reflecting normal price
dillerentials. Officials said the
prices weri' in line with iho.se the
department said last March it
would support II such support was
deemed necessary In insure farm
ers fair returns.
While potatoes have Ix-cn selling

support levels, officials said nine- J

lug. Hence, the new action was
taken as n stabilizing move. j
The department said II would
buy Kilatoes at the support price

lon may escape Hitler If they heed the call of Admiral Darl.m to come over to north Africa. Three
French battleships and several cruisers, destroyers and submarines have been demilitarized In Brit
ish ports since the nazl-Vichy armistice of 1940. Other warships were damaged in allied attacks on
the French at Oran and Dakar In 1940, but most of these have since been repaired and returned to
duty. The incomplete Jean Bart was set afire during the recent battle for Cacablanca, Morocco.

Value of Honey
Production Upped
By Bee-Keeping
(Wiilo Worlil Features)
LOS ANGKLES Sucar ration
ing is adding fresh interest to
the uncient business of bee-keeping.
A cup of honey has more
sweetness than a cup of granula
ted sugar In the ratio of 9 to 7.
It contains roughly twice the
calory value of sugar.
Interest In small backyard
anial'ies is eonsiileinhin i-ofloot.
ing an axiom of the honey trade
that when sugar Is scarce, honey
booms. On Ihe commercial side
this means wide use by bakers,
and at home its substitution lor
sugar in many ways.
in advising amateur bee-keep
ers, J. E. Eckert, University of
California expert, tackles at the
start the matter of getting stung.
"The sling of the honey bee
generally hurts even the season
ed bee-keeper," he concedes.
"However, immunity to the poi
son can be acquired gradually, un
til Ihe effect is not noticeable
after the first few minutes."
Bee-keeping is so stardardized
alter centuries of experience that
you buy bees by the package. A
"three pound package" sell for
about $1 and contains some 13,000
bees.
A dozen odds and ends needed
lo start a single backyard hive
costs about S12. These include
such specialties as the "smoker,"
"hive tool" and "queen excluder,"
and the important foldinc veil to
protect the face.
Authorities stress the impor
itance of having a superior queen
lor the hive, since she lays the
I eggs and determines the type of
offspring.
In California, revenue from
honey and beeswax is often aug
! incnted by renting bee colonies to
I oicharilisls, as bees are some
times priceless in cross pollinat-
j ing ine irun trees.
Farm Outlook for
1943 Shows Some .
Adjustments Due
COItVAMJS, Ore., Nov. 23 -'Al'l
Oregon fanners who eel
tin, nigh next year's difficulties;
successfully while producing at
tlie high rate the nation requires
will need to do a great deal of
planning and adjusting, predicts J
I.. I!. ISrcilhaiipt, extension agri-!
cultural economist at O. S. C. !
Ilrcitliaupl recently returned'
from till' national outlook con-i
ferencc at Washington, 1. C, and
has prepared a report applying
tlie national information to Ore-;
gon conditions.
"Although some farm prices
are expected to average higher
next year than this, price ceilings
will offset much of Ihe upward
pressure caused by greatly in
cleared demand," said lireit
li.iupt. "It is also probable that gloss
agricultural production will be
smaller and farm expenses high
er. Crowing conditions cannot lie,
expected to he exceptionally fa
vorable two years in succession."
Some drastic changes are be
ing made ill transportation and
marketing, to which Oregon
fanners will need lo give more
attention in planning farm opera-:
lions in 1IH.I, lie believes.
Foods of high nutritional value
that are not bulky have the best
nut look, unless there is a local
market demand which will not
require too much labor or trans
portation. Even more families
will likely attempt to grow
vegetables and other foods to olf
set prospective shortages in
stores.
Less Than Fifth of
Sawmill Waste Unused
oi:i:i;in s tate college
Sawmills of Mvgnn are now lie
sinn ing only is.i; per cent of the
"waste" wood produced in con- '
ncction wilh lumber manufactur
ing, according tn preliminary re
turns on a survey conducted by
E. G. Locke, assistant profes
sor ot chemical engineering,
who is working with the Hon.
neville Fower administration on
this project.
Uetiu iis from about a third of
the nulls, represent ing some 70
per mil of Hie si. ue lumber pro
duction. show 'ST.s per cent of the
w.n'e ,o, is sold as wood, ,VVt;
p-r cent is used In the mills and
IS.ii per ci-iil is destroyed. Most

Turkey Grease for
Explosives Asked
Of Housewives
Housewives are asked by Claude
I. Sersanous, chairman of the
Oregon general salvage commit
tee, to help put the skids under
Ihe axis by saving the grease
from their Thanksgiving turkey
lor the manufacture of ammuni
tion. "Turkey grease and all other
waste fats are needed to make
glycerine, an essential ingredient
in explosives and gunpowder,"
Mr. Sersanous said. "One to two
billion pounds of these waste
fats are thrown away each year;
every pound of it can be used in
America's munitions factories.
"We must reach a rate yielding
.'10,000,000 pounds of glycerine
from kitchen fats annually to off
set possible shortages. Save pan
drippings, plus cooked and un
cooked fats after you have ob
tained all the cooking good from
them. Strain the grease into a
clean metal container, and when
you have n pound or more, sell
II to your butcher.
"You will help our soldiers on
the fighting rront if you see that
y our kitchen waste is used to lay
waste the onemv."
Dried Food Idea
Big Aid to Army;
Oregon Can Help
Oregon has not yet lived up
to its possibilities in taking part
in the national program to pro
duce dehydrated foods for war
time use, believes K. II. Wiegand,
head of the food industries depart
ment at Oregon State college.
Professor Wiegand has just, re
turned from taking part in a sec
ond training school for operators
of dehydrators, held In Rochester,
N. Y., where he was sent by the
government.
"The national program calls
for an output of 100 million
pounds of dehydrated vegetables
this season," said Professor Wie
gand. "Plants for a total output
of some 80 million pounds are al
ready in operation or will be com
pleted soon. Oregon, despite tlie
existence of many plants capable
of being converted to vegetable
dehydration, has only 1 per cent I
of the plant capacity in operation
thus far."
Professor Wiegand said that
on his return from the east he
stopped nt the army subsistence
laboratory in Chicago, where he
sampled a complete meal made
from dehydrated foods, starting
with tomato juice cocktail made
from powdered Juice and ending
with a dried custard dessert.
Every part of this meal was ex
cellent, he said, and reflected
the advance that has been made
in dehydration methods.
The 80 million pounds of dried
food will be enough to provide
five million soldiers with two
meals a week for a full year.
Use of dehydrated foods is con
sidered one of the major steps
in the solution of the shipping
problem.
Oregon State college now has
a small experimental dehydra
tion plant In operation and is
prepared to give assistance to
those who desire to get Into this
food processing field.
