SALEM, Ore. (A') While state agencies are seeking further uses nl wheat In Industry as a means of solviif the acute sur plus wheat nioblem that is ex-be-ted In a year or two. Prof. A. W. Oliver of the Oregon .Slate Collepe Animal Husbandry ! bailment thinks he has a partial answer. He thinks much nf the antici pated surplus could Ik- used lor fattening all types of livestock. Prolessor Oliver Kiints out that 7-VMtO fi-euer cattle are produced each year in Oregon but are sent to omer states for fattening. He wants wheat to be used to latten them In Oregon. Forty per cent of Oregon lambs are sold as feeders, and the Pacific Coast produces only half the pork it eats. Storage facilities for wheat are inadequate, to give more of the prolessor's arguments for us ing wheat for livestock. He says ground wheat Is as good as other grains for fatten in" animals, but that the amount of grain required can be reduced tiv 25 to 33 xr cent by use of pas ture crops, such as allalla, clover, growing grain or grass. With all grains, protein supple ments are needed. Profit Building Cited Professor Oliver says that when UK) pounds of pork, live weight, on the farm sells for the same as 650 pounds of grain, the hog raiser will get pay for his feed, Interest, taxes, labor and other expensi-s. If ground wheat sells for $-10 a ton, hogs would have to sell for 13 cents a pound on the farm to pay the costs. A 700-pound yearling steer fed S00 pounds of ground wheat and 2,400 pounds of hay can be fat tened in onlv 100 davs. He said 'cattle will gain more rapidly on pasture and grain than in the feed lot. One hundred pounds of whole wneat and 200 pount's of altalla W'ill get a lamb reaoy for mar ket in 100 days, the lamb weigh ing til) or 70 pounds at the start of the feeding and !I0 to 100 pounds when ready for market. 'l.e V. S. Department of Agri culture said Oregon and Califor nia are the onlv two Western states which have an increase over last year in the number of cattle in feed lots. Butter Prices Falling Mutter market prices are fall ing because consumers, are re s. sting hl;h rices, ana because the supply is becoming more plentiful due to diversion of milk from cheese and fluid cream to butter, the IISDA says.
