Many Stats Commissions Proposed. No Ices than thirteen new state eonimliisUins nnd boards are proposed In bills now ponding- before the lefrls Inturn. Si vernl ot these are to be without s.iUiry, If established, and others coniiisn of present stato ofllcors Invested with now duties or extended authority. For Instnuce, tlio public service commission, one of the moat Import ant, merely extends tho Jurisdiction of the state railway commission. An other example la the proposed state purehnslilK board, which would center In the present Bluto board the pur chase ot supplies, for all departments nnd Institutions. Other state commissions and boards named In pending bills are: A civil sorvlce commission to formulate rules for examination of nil employes of the slate government; a highway board ; a nuval uillltla board; a pa role board, to pass on all applica tions for pardon; a state printing board; a board lor tho examination and reslstry of graduate nurses; a stale hoard cf accountancy; a game commission; a commission to revise the Judicial system of the state; a text-book commission. lU'sldes those, there are bllla for the creation of several now state of- llcera, lucluillni; bills for an assistant l-cretary ot slate, a stato hotel ln specter, a fire marshal and stato auditor or examiner ot accounts. An other iiBw ofllco 1b proposed by an nmenilment to the constitution creat ing the position of llteuteuant gover nor. A resolution submitting the last named proposal to the people has al ready been adopted ly both houses. Good Roads Boosters Invade Senate. Goncl roada boosters Invaded the Senate during the discussion of the highway bills. The good roads ad vocates won three vlitoilo Id the Senate, the moat Important being the bill creating a BUile Highway Com mission, and the bill permitting the use of all ennvicls on tlm romls when not needed at the stale pcultniitlnry. A third bill makes opiirnllvn the pro visions of III" constitutional amend ment passed at the lust general fic tion slid permitting counties to bond for the roiiNlrucllon of good roads. It Is freely predicted that thexe good roads measures will meet with strong opposition In the limine, as sentiment In that body Is decidedly adverse to their pusnat;e. Few "Bslsry Crib" Gills. A notable feature of the session Is tho small number ot "silnry grab bills proposed this session. Thus far incur-lire affecting the salaries ot county ofllcers In uot more than half TMNGS THAT WILL BUILD UP THE HERD doten counties have been Intro duced, The scarcity ot this class of bills may be traced largely to the record of the 11)011 sesalon when more thnu a score of suxh measures, after pausing both bouses, wore ve toed by (lovernor Chamberlain. Tho present IcKUlaiur declined to give these rejected bills further consldra tloii, holding that it any of them had merit they should be reintroduced and take their chances. House Upholds Initiative. Legislation amendutory of or sup plemental to any of the laws adopted uy tne people uniier ine uituitiite stands but little chunce of receiving tho Indorsement of the present leg islature. This was demonstrated when the House, for the second time since con vening, rejected a bill having for lis purpose the enullon of a law board which should prepare all or the laws to be submitted to the people under the lultlatlvo. Consideration of this measure following the unfavorable re port of the committee on revision of laws, was postponed Indefinitely by a (wolo-one vole. Abolish Whipping Post. With only ton dissenting votes the House passed Iluchausn'a bill abol ishing the whipping post.

This has resulted In lightweight, spindle legged slock of but little use for farm pun-oso.

The debate on the bill, which was defi-iled In the legislature two years ago, was brief. Rsvlsion of Irrigation Cede. Kxtenslvo revision of the Irlrg.ttion code of the state Is provided In a bill Introduced by Heprcsenlatlve Hrooke. In this way one cnu safely Introduce quality ami Utility. For Instuiice. the tiueriisey cow comes from a cross of Norma nil v ami Hrlttany stock. The former were a huge liom-d and mus cled stock posaexslug great coustllU liniinl vigor, while the hitter were bred more for ounllty uiid U-iiuty. The A GOOD SELF FEEDER. One That Is Construelsd at Hem Pre fsrred to Fsctory Preduet. Herewith Is shown the pliture of one of the naist successful self feeders the writer has seen. Munjr farroera ob ject to the factory mail self feeder because ll Is too narrow on the base ml the gulviinliMtl Iron wltb wbkb It Is covered sttrves lo beat the contents, while Hie edge of the Iron are almost sure lo become loosened and wound the stork. This Is practically eertnln lo occur In the ruse of su' li fi-eder as are msae for hogs. Aguln. the flat lopped self feeder Is objectlouuble for the reason Mir' k Bouxvaoi sFtr r it era. that It will not exclude water unless covered wltb metal, when It become open to the objection noted aliove. The self fifdcr shown In the cot was made for cuttle, but was set low euougb so that the calves could have access to It. Ily Its use very little grain Is wasted, and what falls to the ground Is picked up by the bogs, i lils particular self fi-eder was set In an open feed lot near a cattle shed In wblcb bay bag came close enough to replace the manger. It could, be set In the shed, however. If thought desirable. In these days of the scarcity of farm help It la the brain work that Is put Into such little accessories as this that counts and hel to solve the problems wblcb con front tbe present day farmer. The proposed amendments, It adopt- cr,)S1i produced a very desirable cow. ed, embody, the best features of the!

Another amend ment defines more especially who are legal voters within the meaning ot tbe act, giving to any man or woman who owns laud or bus a homestead or desert claim a right to vote. Pro vision Is also made whereby assess ments niay bo levied at any time In the year. It further confers on ex isting associations tho right to lease Irrigation works. already constructed. Provision Is also made for the con solidation of two or more Irrigation associations. Would Civs A's No Advantage. Names of candidates of the same party for the same otllce on the pri mary ballot are to be rotated, if a bill approved by tho Senate becomes a law. It was passed without a dis senting vote. The system n worked out calls for, printing of ballots In such man ner that the name of every candidate where several are In the field for tho same office will appear at the head of the ballot an equal number of times with every other candidate. The candidates whose names begin with A will be deprived In this way of any advantaae they may possess. Text Book Substitute Passed. Representative Clyde Introduced a substitute for his free textbook bill. In the substitute It Is provided that a petition of ouo-fourth of the quali fied school voters In a district may be placed before the board and an election called to determine whether free text-books should tie furnished the school children. The lii'.l passed the House. Propose Eastern Oregon Normal. Hopes that the state normal school question had been settled finally and definitely at tho luBt- general election "wore shattered when Senator Oliver Introduced a bill providing for the establishment ot an Easlefu Oregon normal school at La Grande. Under the bill an appropriation of 100,000 is muilo for the use of the proposed school. - When the bill was read a gasp of surprlso went around the Senate chamber, followed by expressions of mirth on tho part of some ot tho members, which would Indicate that possibly the bill would not proceed far before reaching an Indefinite postponement. The mistake Is too frequently made lu using any klial of sire anything that will cause the cows to freshen. The tR-st aire la none too good and la fur cheaper In Hie long run. Taking all tbe cows In the country together, tbe average yield la about I ra pounds of butter for each cow. This Includes all kinds of cows kept under all sorts of conditions. -It is probable that tbe average yield for each cow in the regular dalriee of the country la not far from 130 pounds of butter In a year. It la agreed that the cow that pro duces 200 pounds of butter In a year Just about pays for her feed nnd tbe expense Incident to bousing nnd other wise caring for her aud gettlug tbe butter to niurket. If a cow yields 2o0 pounds of butter in year she bus the value of 50 pounds) to her credit If she ileitis 800 IHiumis a year the profit from bcr Is doubled and she Is worth twice as much as the 250 pound cow. Increase the yield to SoO pounds nnd she In creases atlll more in value aud Is worth throe times as much as the 250 pound cow. It Is strange that bo few of such cows are to be found when they cost no more to raise than others. Sensible Sheep Hints. The use of a (Up that kills tbe ticks, but not their eggs, simply uieaus post poning the evil. Only tba best dips pay for themselves. The poorly tilled farm with a behind the times owner stands more In the way of successful sheep breeding than all of the tlogs In the country. Tbe appetite of the sheep Is some thing that requires watchlug. Keed them only such a quantity as they will eat up at oue time. To feed more Is uo advantage to them and Is a loss to the feeder. No man should go luto sheep raising or feeding until be has a woven wire fence around bis feed lots aud pas tures. Tbe old time barbed wire with wool hanging to it is a relic of the past ou au up to date sheep farm. Fat Cows Expsnstve. No one can afford to keep a fat dairy cow. If a cow gets fat while in milk she uses too much of her feed for other purposes thnu mnklug milk of It. A cow that has a good appetite eats heartily niul keeps thin lu Hesh while giving milk Is usually a 6J one t0 keep. Feedina to Young Calf. The calves should be fed the warm milk from the mother nnd fed at least three times a day. Wbeu the calf Is about two weeks old sweet milk from the separator can be added to the whole milk, about bull sua uau. CLEANSING MILK VESSELS. After a Thorough Washing They Should Be Set In Sunshine. When washing milk palls, pans, cans, churns, etc., first wash them out with cold or cool water. Is the advice ot a well known dairyman. It Is much bet ter If you wash them twice with cold wuter. Next wash lu water as hot as tbe bauds can bear In wblcb there la soap or salsoda. Scald in boiling wa ter aud wipe' with clean towels. Milk vessels In which milk remains for any length of time should be set lo the sunshine to air. All milk vessels con taining seams can lie more thoroughly washed with a brush, Tbe separator parts should be wash ed and scalded and suum-tl tbe same a si he milk pulls. A sunny kltcheu window Is the U-st place lo sun and air them. When washing milk vessels nil rust should be removed from tin- wure vessels, as rust affords the very best of bldlug places for germs. Tbe outside of milk pulls and cream cans should be kept as clean us the Inside. Tbe exterior of the separator should alsu be washed off lifter each using. Leave apart uutll the next milking tlmu. Tbe churn should be washed and scalded. Keep tbe outside rleau. Wash the strainer with a brush, using cold water first, then hot water. If by neg lect the meshes of the strainer be come closed you mny readily clean It Willi dry salt and a stiff brush. If you use a strainer cloth first rinse In two cold waters, then wash In hot water aud soap. Rinse In cold water and bang on the line to dry. If tbe straining is attended to late In the eveulng. for the sake of conven ience the strainer cloth may be hung on bars or ou a line In the house Cloths and towels used for washing milk vessels should be white and sweet, never sour and soiled. When there are quite a number of milk ves sels to be washed tbe cloths and tow els should not be used for any other purpose. The Type For Good Breeders. Straight, strong legs are a necessity under breeding sheep, and the pas terns must be strong, and, although this Is more Importaut with rams. It affects ewes to the extent that they mny drop rams for breeding purposes. When the sheep has been examined for mutton form, constitution, legs and feet the fleece should be carefully looked through. THE SWINEHERD When Putting Hogs In Pasture. In putting hogs in pasture do not cut off the eutlre grain ration at once. Don't Build Pens Near the House. Fut hogpens a gocd distance from the house. They are neither good to see nor smell from tbe bouse. Keep Sow While Teeth Are Good. As long as her teeth are good do not sacrifice her, no matter how high the price of pork may go or how old she may be. Market Pigs When "Ripe." As soon as the pigs are In market able condition "ripe," as the butchers say lot them go. It does not pay to feed the animal after it Is fit. A Good Pasture Valuable, Good clover pasture, pure water to drink and nil the corn they will eat clean two or three times a day will prepare them quickly and economically for market Why Swine Become Stunted. Many farmers neglect their swine In the hurry of summer work, and the result is the hogs become stunted. In the fall they have not made adequate growth, and, besid.es, stunted swiue do not flulsli well. Guns, Sewing Machines, Bi cycles, Typewriters, Etc., re paired with promptness. Scisors ground. L.
