SILAGE FOR BEEF
CATTLE FEEDING
Attention hna frequently two called
t the fart that the cattle feeder rets
its largest profit not directly from
feeding operation, but rather from the
mcreaaea productiveness of his land.

Quarters and thick lolna. The Hare
ford cow pictured was a prise win
ner at Chicago last falL
meal and clover hay. These steers
were purchased at $5.55 per hundred
pounds, and they were sold for $8-23,
but in spite of this good spread In
value the net profit per steer was
I3J57. It cost IK23 to make a hundred
fronds of gain on these steers, com
puting the feed at regular market
prices. In an adjoining feed lot a
similar number of steers were fed the
same length of time, but in this case
corn silage was need In place of clorer
say. These steers were bought at the
same price namely, $5.55 per hundred
pounds end they sold 10 cents per
pound higher than the steers fed on
ftay, or for $8.35 per hundred pounds.
Their gains were made at a cost of
$9.88 per hundred pounds, snd the net
profit per steer In this case was $20.90.
These results are worth pondering
ever by those who propose to follow
along the same old fashioned route In
reeding cattle. The cheap gains In this
ease were due to the fact that a given
acreage produces a larger amount of
good fattening food in the form of en
silage than can be-produced in any
ether way. The man who tries to finish
cattle on dry feed alone must in the
ft hire compete with those who take
this short cut to cheap gains. There
ean be only one outcome of a situation
Hie this namely, that the practice of
those who use the cheapest meat mak
ing foods will be the basis of cost in
the future. Those who cannot bring
the cost down to this minimum point
ky the use of this comparatively Inex
pensive food will be eliminated from
the business or they must continue to
earry It on at a loss, relying wholly for
their profit upon the effect of feeding
operations on the productiveness of
their land. As said before, this profit
will not suffice in the esse of the aver
age man. If dry feed cannot be fed at
a profit then quit feeding dry feed. If
ensilage reduces the cost of making
gains anywhere from 2 to 4 cents a
pound, then how Is this competition to
be met by those who do not feed en
silage? Pig Ailments.
Coujrb in young pigs Is very often
oused by dust ii the bedding. Dry,
short, chaffy oat straw Is most likely to
cause trouble In this way. The cou?h
ften ends In fatal pneumonia. The
cough may also be due to exposure or
to damp sleeping places. Such causes
should be removed. Thumps in young
pigs Is, Induced by overfeeding and lack
of exercise. If both the mother and
pigs are made to take abundant exer
cise daily trouble such as this will be
anknown.
8alting the Curd.
The curd should be spread out thinly
aver the bottom of the vat and the salt
put on In at least three applications.
JEaeh time it should be evenly distrib
uted over the surface. After each
sprinkling the curd should be stirred
with curd forks. If the salt Is applied
too- rapidly the outside of the small
pieces harden, and absorption Is hin
dered. Driving a Horse,

Rape ha been found to be one
I of the beat forage crops In con
nection with a light gralu ration
to make rapid ud ecouoiulcal
growth In pigs.
The profits of a successful hog
man rest largely upon bis suc
cess In raising pigs.
The meat from quickly grown
pigs or hogs Is far more palata
ble and nutritions than when
they are fattened otherwise.
Uogs like drink of water at
night Little pigs tike a drink of

The growing pigs require pro
tein and not much corn. It la all
right to give a Uttle corn, but
much Is harmful

THE GROWING LAMBS.
Watchful Eye Needed In 8ummr
Management af the Flock.
When the ewes are shorn, the lambs
all docked aud trimmed, healed up
properly, the ewes and lam lis should
be turned on the summer pasture, not
to be confined there exclusively for
the season, but for a period of a few
weeks, then turned Into a fresh pas
ture, says the Iowa Homestead.
The lamb becomes a graser when
but a few weeks old. It at first com
mences to nibble at the little tender
spears of grass and rapidly , increases
until It consume quite an amount of
pasture If It la fresh and of good qual
ity. The ewe should have all she will
eat In order to produce enough milk to
grow her lamb properly. In addition
to the pasture. If the best results are
to be had, a little feed should be pro
Tided for the lambs. This can best be
managed by building a pen large
enough to comfortably hold all the
lambs, with suitable feed troughs put
np around the walla or sides of the
pens so the lambs can conveniently eat
out of the trough and yet not be able
to get in them with their feet
Lambs should be taught the use of
the troughs while in the sheep sheds or
barn before being turned out on pas
ture. Shorts, bran, cornmeal, chop feed
of oats and other grains can be used.
The ewe and lamb flock should have
salt supply In the pasture where
they can go to it at any time. A sup
ply of good water Is also essential
The ewe and her lamb need the
watchful eye of the flock master prac
tically each day. In warm, wet
weather there la danger of the green
fly maggot getting started In slight In
juries or abrasions of the skin, filth.
etc.
One of the greatest sources of loss In
the Iamb flock la the parasitic ailments
which attack the lamb in the summer
The Southdown Is one of the pop
ular mutton breeds of sheep and Is
Olilte extensively bred. The breed
la hornless. The face and legs are
of a (ray-brown color. The best
rams when fat often weigh from
175 to 200 pounds, the ewes from 12ft
to ISO. The body la rather blocky.
This breed furnishes a fleece of
good quality, weighing from six to
seven pounda The wool is rather
short, but of medium fine texture.
The mutton Is of excellent quality.
The Southdown ewes produce more
than one lamb at birth, often two
and sometimes three. They are a
very valuable breed for early lambs,
as the lambs grow rapidly.
and autumn seasons. These are called
the stomach worm. Intestinal worm
and lung worm. The latter possibly Is
the most destructive In the lamb flock.
The first remedy prescribed after the
discovery of the cause of the ailment
was oil and turpentine. This was pre
pared by taking equal pnrts of turpen
tine and crude castor oil, giving to
each lamb one teaspoonfui a day for
three days, then omitting three days
and repeating this treatment, giving
three applications or treatments when
tlie lamb would be on the road to re
covery unless in the lust stages of the
disease, which was adjudged when the
purging was manifest. From the time
the turpentine treatment was discov
ered there was no more fatality from
this lamb ailment which Is now known
as "lung parasite In lambs" or "lung
worms."
This disease is yet very destructive
in many sections of the country and
causes great loss where not promptly
and properly treated. It will not do to
permit lambs In your flock to drop
down in flesh during the summer
months and autumn season. Strong,
healthy, well fed lambs seldom if ever
are troubled with this disease. It pays
to keep the lamb increase of the flock
in good llesh Stomach worms snd In
testinal worms are claimed by some
authority not to yield readily to tur
pentine treatment, but In our experi
ence we have never failed to secure
good results with Iambs, colts, calves
or pigs out of condition from worm
ailments.
The McKenzie Highway
The ultimate value of the Mo
Kenr.ie highway to all of Lane
county la Indicated by the num
ber of vehicles crossing the pass
since the first of last June. Ac
cording to a member of the road
camp who spent the entire sum
mer snd fall in sight of the road,
557 vehicles crossed over. Over
half of these were automobiles.
When jt is remembered that
every automobile party that
crosses the pass speudsfrom 110
to 550 from the time it enters the
the coun'.y on one side till It
leaves it on the other, it become
. , .i
evident mat a large sum or
money has been left here as the
result of opening this road.
The McKenxie highway is not
essentially a project of the Lane
county court, although the mem
bers or tne county court are
deeply interested in it, and are
aiding tt as much as possible
It has been brought to its p es
ent state of efficiency largely by
special levies in the districts
through which it passes, and the
money for its completion will
come from the government, from
special levies in the McKenzie
road districts, and from private
subscription. Very little money
from the county road levy has
been expended upon it. It Is al
most wholly a community enter
prise, backed by people wno be
lieve in good roads and who are
willing to pay for them.
The McKenzie highway Is not
merely a means of communica
tion between two points. It is a
scenic highway that will attract
people from all over the West.
It follows one of the most beauti
ful rivers in the world, and it
bads through Scenery that can
not be matched. As its attrac
tions become more widely kuown
automobile tourists from every
point np and down the coast will
include It in their routes.
The benefits that will result
from the improvement of this
road will not be conferred ex
clusively upon the people who
live along it, bqt will be dis
tributed all over the county.
Attracting a large tourist travel
will mean better markets for
produce, and better markets will
mean better prices.
If approximately 250 antomo
biles have crossed the McKenzie
pass this season, before the elimi
oatiin of the heavy grades near
the summit, it is reasonable to
suppose that next year the nam
bea will be increased to nearly
1000. A thousand automobile
parties passing through the up
per Willamette valley will mean
the spending of a sum of money
that will be a material addition to
business capital. Eugene Regis

comprises 13,000 acres in Lake
county, the contract with (he state
having been executed in 1907 and
revised and re-executed in 1912.
The amount of water available for
this project is not known definitely,

way by the State Water Board.
The company has built a part of its
main canals and laterals and some
work has been done on the dam.
Right to sell stock has been given
the company and it expects to com
plete the work within two years
It is planned to make the stock re
deemable in water rights when the
state authorizes the opening of the
land for entry)
Comprehenmt Pits Urfed
About 1000 acres have been re
deemed by the Deschutes Reclama
tion & Irrigation Company on the
east side of the Deschutes river,
near the tract of the Central Ore
gon Land & Irrigation Company.
The system is a success in every
particular and the land has been
deeded to the settlers who pro
moted the project.
A project comprising '74,000
acres is planned at Benham Falls,
and the Central Oregon Irrigation
Company ha made application for
the segregation of 13,000 acres.
The 1912 report of the Oregon
Conservative Commission strongly
urge s comprehensive development
plan. It says there la available
from the streams of the state a
water supply sufficient to Irrigate
more than 4,000,000 acrea. It
further aays there are at least
2,000,000 acrea in the state which
can be irrigated at a cost which is
fully warranted under present con
ditions, from t;t0 to ItiO an acre.
It is urged by advocates of this
plan that it would lead to Intelli
gent, constructive criticism for the
nf
both state and
Federal service. The state officials
would be fully advised as to Federal
plans, tiie lack of complete informs'
tion as to detailed plana and cost of
Government projects having been
given as a reason for the indefinite
charges as to the high cost of gov
ernment projects.
The Reclamation Service gets

made by H. T. Corey, who closed
the break in the Colorado river snd
saved the Imperial valley,' and who
for six years was in charge of the
