' Uy Paul H. Splllman, . '"'
- (County Agent.) ,
. That sounds like stories you read
about corn feed steers back In Iowa.
But then this happens to be the price
paid for thirty head of three year
old steers belonging to W. J. Town-
ley of Union by Warren Chandler of
La Grande. -These cattle . were con
tracted at twelve cents a pound and
delivered to Union Junction on April
27th making an average weight of
1300 lbs. for thirty head. And here
la the interesting, feature of this
transaction that made possible such
a price being paid for local steers,
and such steers being produced in the
Grande Ronde valley at a profit with
grain "clear out of sight."
Wo have been telling you for
some time that the silo is a great
saver of feed, particularly of hay in
the wintering of cattle, and sheep,
and also dairy cows.' These steers
were fed for 98 days on wild hay,
silage, cotton seed meal and soy bean
cake. They consumed possibly thirty
pounds of .ensilage per head per day,
fifteen to twenty pounds of wild hay
and received two pounds' of cotton
seed' liakey?er , neadX per ,'day at . the.
beginning which was gradually' in
creased until they . wrerecelvinir,
about 9 pounds of soy beans meal a
head Dor day for the last two weeks
of the feeding period, the supply ol
cotton Seed meal giving out a month
or so before the cattle were ready to
turn off. The silage feed for these
cattle was made from weedy grain,
ditch bank mowings and other mate
rial that, would have been largely

a royal bengal tiger In a wrestling
act with trail Miss Mabel Stark, the
Al G. Barnes wild animal circus
will entertain in the afternoon and
evening with performances at the
old circus grounds in La Grande on
May 25. . . :
For many seasons Mr. Barnes liaa
brought to La Grande his great ag
gregation of wild, semi-wild and
domestic animals, thrilling the pa
trons and leaving every attendant
to the vast canvas eager to see the
show again next season. . Without
doubt Barnes has the' largest and
most diversified assortment of an
imals and the fact that every one of
them ' earn their keep by doing the
most.aBtouuding acts. ,.
Seals and sea lions aBtonish ono
with their dexterity in i Juggling and
horseback riding features. Sport
fans as well as the layman are sur
prised at the ability the . boxing
kangaroos and wreatllng bears show
in matches with their instructors.
This season it Is certain to pull nig
applause from clean sport levers
when they see the skill a bengal
tiger uses In the most unusual bout.
More clowns with altogether new
brands of laughs. . Horses by the
hundreds, elephants In acts with
other animals and the military lion
act are only a mere mention of the
novelties in' the ' 103 ' feature act
program, where a steel arena and
two sawdust rings, beside the hlp
podromei are featured. One Is car
ried .over tho entire gamut of hu
man emotions so rapidly that they

there will bo a. big parade at
10:30 and a tree exhibit In front of
the main tent at p. m. , Doors to
the big, show open at 1 and 7 -p. m.,
allowing an hour in which to enjoy
the free band concert and become
acquainted with the animals.

SOME
CORSET
FACTS
waste had it not been' put Into tho
silo. However Mr. Townley says that
the' better the material you put in
to the silo, the better you may expect
to take out. If a good, alfalfa, hay
could have been fed ?n the place of
the wild hay the cattle would have
In all probability made as satlsfaplrv
gain on' somewhat less cotton seen
and soy bean meal, as these feeds
are rich In protein, as Is also alfalki
hay. These cattle were In rather thin
flesh when they were put into the
feeding pen and Mr. Townley estim
mates they made an average gain of
from 200 to 250 lbs. gain per head
in the 982 days. Mr. Townley and Mr.
Chandler .ty)th credit the ensilage
with making possible such gains and
the cattle being in such flesh as they
were when they were marketed. In
ract Mi? Chandler Is enthusiastic in
the praiso of. the silo as a source of
economic wintering of beef and dairy
cattle and sheep. .-"
