Con You Compete With Uncle Sam? Tho government estimates that on Jan. 1. liHS, Oregon wheat farmers were holding two and a half million bushels 01 wheat, about half of last years carryover and 43 per cent of the ten year average. And iaa, is sun Duying some North west wheat for shipment over seas. Information out of Washing ton is that exports from this area will continue on a heavy scale, and that feders and feed manufacturers should buy now, in competition with the govern ment, and store enough wheat to carry until the new crop. On Jan. 9th the Oregon Poultry Council met with Senator Morse, and suggested that American producers should not be expec ted to comix'te with the govern ment; but that the Government should take care of its own pro rle first, prior to shipping un limited amounts of fued grain overseas. v Due to governmental policy in handling grain exports, 1hc price ol grain has been practic ally doubled during the past year. A vear ago, corn was bringing $1 2S a bushel in Chi cago. In IVcember it hit $2.73. and the last corn we saw was nearly out of sight, and still go ing higher. Oats wont from a low of 72c last January to a high of Jl .27: Milo maie ascended from $2.12 per cw1. In January to $l..io in ivcomher; and you can erson ally remember 'that wheat at the IMul'Ihs Flour Mill has gone from W.7.1 last January to $o.40 this month. Then to make things a little more puzzling, we find that the usually high price concentrates are getting higher, but are still about the same price as grains. It Is high priced grain that mak.-s your MILKMAKKR and Klii; MASH cost so much. Hut It Is still possible to make a g nod renin on your feed dol lar nd the alxr you put in raring for your siuff, if you get reasonably go-d nro-lucf ion. We keep extremely nappy hearing ine reports or good production 1 on good, well bred stock and i poultry living on good I MP- j Ql'A KKKDS. paying their way. ! and their owners a neat profit ; under such handicaps. Sure proves to us that I MPQl A KLtPS arc worth the money. A Good Bujincts. At Inst thought it would seem I that wo can't get ahead bv look Ing backwards. However, it is a good tiling to lok back once in awhile, and see how far we have come. Gives us a lot of encouragement to know that we nave made so much Headway. Kor instance, a quick look and appraisal of the chicken and egg business today shows the dark cloud, but not the silver lining. Yet, when we look back over the road we have traveled, it is hard to figure a plausible rea son why we shouldn't go right ahead with the poultry business as we have In so many years past. Over a great many years, this business has never failed to give good wages for the time spent and the Investment in volved, proxlded good stock, good management, good sani tation and good feed were made the foundation of the enterprise. That was true 20. years ago when ggs were 22c a down and feed $2 50 a sack. Today it is true with eggs at 50c and feed at $.50. In fact, many grow, ers tell us thev are making MORK MONEtf, but about the same percentage. The editor ot "The Feed Bag" is not in the poultry business. But Mom keeps a couple dozen Khode Island Ked hens for our own eggs and chicken dump lings, with a couple of fryers during the summer. Wc spent a couple hours last week fig uring how many eggs they laid, Mom has always wanted to get paid for the time she works w ith her birds, and has always kept egg records. 1 Something every IKHiltryman should do.) These birds laid, (21 of them), 4 ) eggs, an average on a "hen day" basis of $218.39 per bird. (We ate a few hens during the year). That is over S3 Income per bird. Without any artificial lights or forcing in any wav. In fact, practically self fed o'n scratch and I Ml'QL'A BRfcXD- j LK'S MASH. ! To off set this Income, the 40 pounas 01 mash and 60 pounds of scratch they consumed cost. m toaays Increased prices $5. 73. leaving Mom $3.27 for her labor on each hen. (After fig uring this all up. we have decid ed to persuade Jlom to keep a thousand hens this coming jrari. There's your figures, a id we wiil swear to them, if von wjh And we know a number of p,u. try men who have done as well or better on a much bigg, r scale, by the way, hive jour ordered your baby chix yet? The early chix pay best, and you have to hurry to get early chix now. Save The Baby Fat With all kinds of livestock and poultry, the young animal or bird makes the cheapest gains. A good stockman once told us that If he ever allows a pig to lose Its baby fat, it cost him lots of feed, money and time to put it back on. So. with your baby chix, pigs or lambs, don't let them lose that baby fat. Then feed them all the UMPOUA FEEDS they will eat, and you wil make your gains economically for two rea sons. First, you will get the early, lapid growth enjoyed by all healthy young animals be cause the feed is good, and made for the purpose you feed ii. Sec ondly, you w ill makp these gains economically because, though L'MPQUA FEEDS are well bal anced ar.d contain the best in gredients possible to obtain, they also cost you less per sack than any other you can find. This is especially true of pigs. In raising pigs, be sure the sows have all the UMPQUA COM PLETE PIG RATION thev want. This will keep the sow in fine condition, furnish lots of milk, and give the pigs a chance for those quick cheap gains up to thiee or four months of age. And this excellent feed Is cheaper pr sack than wheat or corn, and twice as effective in producing gains. Choff From the Mill.
