Salt Vegetables
That "salting" is an economical
i method of preserving the surplus
beans of the home garden is pointed
'mit. h tVia tavern annnrttnlra rlann rf
ment of the Oregon State college ex
tension service. Vegetables such as
beans, cabbage, beet tops and turnips,
may be salted In three different ways
by dry salting with fermentation,
dry Baiting without fermentation and
by the strong brine method. Those
wishing to know more of the process,
can get full detail by writing to the
college extension service.
Corn Is In
Equal Value
: Field corn grown in Oregon that
Is reasonably well dried has Just the
some feeding value as that Imported
from the mlddlewest, Judging from
preliminary tests Just completed by
the Oregon State college experiment
station on the comparative feeding
value of Willamette valley and mid'
die-west corn.
' Two loads of purebred Duroc Jersey
pigs averaging 73 pounds initial
weight were fed on the two kindB of
corn respectively, supplemented with
fish meal. Only one day's difference
was found in the length ot time re
quired to bring the average weight ot
both lots up to 175 pounds, a differ
ence so -light that It Is well within
the range of experimental error, says
A. W. Oliver, associate animal hus
bandman, who was In charge ot the
tests. '
The Willamette valley com used was
raised by E. M. Alderman of Dayton
and contained slightly more than 11
per cent moisture. The other com'
was No. 2 yellow shipped In from
the middle west and contained Just
over 14 per cent moisture. The corn
In each case was ground before feed
ing. - "Some grain buyers have claimed
that corn grown in the Willamette
valley was lower In feeding value than
corn from the middle west, so tho
experiment was run to test this be
lief." says Mr. Oliver. "The test Indi
cates no difference in the two kinds
of corn, though the experiment will
be repeated before final conclusions
are drawn.
"This preliminary test is confirm
ed, however, by tests at Washington
experiment station, whero lambs were
fattened on western and middle west
ern corn.1 It Is conceded, however,
that If either corn had contained an
excessive amount of moisture its feed
ing value would probably have been
lower."
Com production in Oregon has
gradually Increased in recent years,
especially since the perfection of the
com picker and artificial drier, so
that many farmers are now growing
com as a cash crop.

Select
Feed Crop
Of Smallest Cost
"Grow the crop that will produce
the greatest amount of feed at the
.smallest cost," advises R. E: Hodgson
of the ' dairy husbandry staff, West
ern1 Washington experiment station,
In discussing tho growing of crops
for sllago.
j "Wherever It can be grown succeos-
When It Is cut up for silage It packs
well and undergoes desirable changes.
Under normal conditions, corn should
be harvested for silage when nearly
mature, or when about three-fourths
of the kernels have hardned. Fairly
good silage may be made from frosted
corn or Immature corff, although It Is
advisable to mix It with the more
mature com. Silage from Immature
com has a tendency to be sloppy.
i "Farmers who are located where
corn docs not do well will find sun
flowers a good substitute. It makes
feed that is from 80 to 60 per cent
as good as com silage, and In most
parts of the state, a greater yield per
acre may bo expected of the sun
flower. For the making of, sllago, sun
flowers should be - haffcgted when
about one-third of the heads are In
bloom. If the sunflowers are allowed
to mature, the stems get woody, and,
make silage of lower leeaing value.
"I do not believe it Is an economi
cal practice to ensile legume or grass
crupa aiulie, ccmviuuca mi. nuuswu,
"It Is more difficult to handle the
fresh cut crop. When legumes are en
siled alone the moiBture 'content IS
so high that It makes sloppy silage,
and due to the low sugar content
proper fermentation doca not tskc
place. It produces a bitter, unpala
table feed. Good results will bo
achieved, however, through the mix
ing of legumes with corn or sunflow
ers In the silo. If the ration of com
to legumes lo about two to one, no
trouble will be encountered In the
preservation of the material."
