In connection with the mainten
ance i r breeding herds of rows, the
following statement made by I'rofes ;
Bor fl. W. Mumford of the ilhinn .
Agricultural -m! ! t of Interest:
I marie a pretty radical statement
nome yearn ago that breeding cowii
could he wintered more cheaply on i
silage than they could he carried
through the Hummer on hlue grass
pasture. Many people did not be
lieve It, and they did not let me for
Ret I had ald It. I am going to re
peat It. ' On land worth f 100 and
upward, aultahln for growing corn,
you can carry breeding cows through
the numrner cheaper on silage than
on blue graaa. Not many paaturea
will carry a cow and her calf on leaa
than one and a half acrea. But It
la entirely possible to get twelve and
one-half to twenty tona of allege from
one acre, and you can carry a cow
and calf during the auminer on two
pountla of clover hay ard thirty-five
pound; of altage per lay aa well aa
or better than on blue gran.
Thua you can keep a cow a year
and her calf all month on leaa than
a half acre of Milage If eventually
Illinois cornea to practicing It feed
ing cattle It will come to ue the all
ege for auminer aa well aa winter
feeding. I had to be ahown thla.

County ltallroad company, possibil
ity of an early extension of the for
vallia A Eastern railroad from Its
present terminus at Detroit across the
Cascade mountains east to I'rim-vill.-and
Bend Is seen.
The new line will follow the north
fork of the Santlatu river, tapping a
rich timbered section, and Is said to
be along the aurvey of the Corvallls
A Eastern road, which goes through
Mlnto l'asa.
When the Corvallls Eastern was

ALFALFA BLOAT
In reading your most excellent pa
per, I have from time to time read
about alfalfa bloat under the ques
tion and answer department. I can
not refrulu from saylug that I fiud
aweet cream will positively relieve
bloat in from 15 to 20 minutes. I
have used one pint of sweet cream
seven times In six weeks in every
degree of bloat and I get almost
Instant relief witli no bad effects as
from some of the other remedies
which are advocated. Tho cream is
given as a drench.
Regarding soiling alfalfa, some
cows consume their food too rapidly
and oer-eat and I find they will not
bloat when pasturing alfalfa In lim
ited amounts are allowed, or a bit
put into the mouth of those cows
that eat too fast. W. M Mitchell,
