THE BANNER-COURIER, OREGON CITY, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1922. Page Three i t AGRICULTURE AND LIVESTOCK NEWS Up-to-date Information to Help Develop Progressive Farming " Farm Management Important "Management of the farm ha more to do with its earning capacity, than methods of production or marketing," says H. D. Scudder, professor of farm management at O. A. C. "Farmers have been thinking more of better production methods than better farm business. Better production methods must always be considered, but organ ization methods have more to do with success of the farm enterprise." Size uality and diversity of business, lay out of farmstead, labor efficiency, ro tation of crops, machinery eui;tment are named as factors of success in farming. Farm Flocks Need Care The farm poultry flock to be profi table, must have careful attention in selection of stock and care of the birds, reports O. C. Crum, of the O. A. C. Experiment station Very little neglect, he says, may result in weak ened vitality. The male bird is half the flock, he considers, and must be of right stock and good quality. Agriculture Needs Stability Agriculture must be stabilized so that the farmer may depend on rea sonable profits, President W. J. Kerr of the Oregon Agricultural College told a conference of farmers at Farm ers' Week. Agriculture being the ba si cindustry, the prosperity of the na tion rests on it The farmer must meet the agricultural needs of the world. Ten Reasons for Cooperation The department of agriculture of fers the following ten reasons why farmers should cooperate : 1. "To assemble their products most economically at country points. 2. To establish and maintain plants for handling their products at country points. 3. To become a factor and wield an influence in the marketing of their products. 4. To undertake actual commercial distribution of their products. 6. -To obtain efficiency in the mar keting of their products. 6. To stabilize the supply in ac cordance with the market demand. 7. To secure for produers the ser vices of marketing experts. 8. To reduce the cost of supplies reuired in marketing. 9. To 'eliminate speculation and wasT.e 10. To secure direct and orderly distribution. Hampering a Law The American Farm Bureau Feder ation, together with other farm or ganizations is endeavoring to have a larger salary than $4500 provided in the deficiency appropriation bill, for the person who would administer the Grain Future Trading Act. The bill not only limits the rate of compen sation, but says that only one person shall be employed even at that sal ary. The Future Trading Act erects machinery f,or the regulation of trade amounting to billions of dollars an nually. The person who administers, the act should have an excellent work ing knowledge of the intricacies of grain trading and the system of handl ing grain and any such man in the trade would be worth several times the amount provided by congress in this bill.

An agricultural paper calls atten tion to the fact that the armistice which was sighed in 1918 did not end all wars. The farmers in Clayton county have been carrying on a war during the past year on the loafer hen. During the past year a total of 280 farms have 'been visited, with a total of 37,338 hens culled. Of these hens, 9,338 were found to be notori ous loafers. Judging by the Eye Mr. Roy E. Jones, poultry specialist at Storr's Agricultural College, is re sponsible for the claim that the eye of a hen will tell whether or not she is laying. Mr. Jones says: "All yellow-skinned varieties of poultry should carry a surplus of yel low pigment of "fat previous to the time they start laying, and unless de cidedly out of condition ,are bright yellow in beak ,edge of the eyelid and shanks. The surplus of color pig ment or fat is slowly depleted by pro duction, the color changes being ap parent first where the blood circula tion is most rapid. The tissue around the vent expands with production and the yellow color disappears after a very few eggs have been produced. If production continues,- the "vent be comes white and after long, heavy production, a bluish white. "The edge of the eyelid, or eye- ring is next to fade, losing all trace of yellow after a few eggs have been produced. It seems far-fetched to say that you can look a hen in the eye and tell if she is laying, never theless it is easily done. The fad ing of the beak starts at the base of the beak and works out toward the tip. The shanks are last to lose col or, and do not ,as a rule, fade, until after several months of production."

The Importance of the Strain Breeders of live stock have proper ly come to look upon the strain within a breed as of importance comparable to that of the breed itself. A case in the poultry world has just been reported, indicating in a definite way this importance. "Lady Dryden," a Barred Plymouth Rock hen developed by the Oregon Agricultural college, poultry depart ment has- established a new world record for the heavy breeds of poultry by laying 324 eggs in one year. Not only is the record the top one for the top. one for the heavy breeds, but it approaches within a few eggs the world record for all breeds, including the specially bred Leghorns. While the Plymouth Rock is recog nized as a high-producing fowl, from the standpoint of both meat and eggs, it is not to be understood that this record is the result of breed character istics alone, but rather a combination of the breed characteristics and those of a peculiarly high-producing strain within the breed. Pacific Homestead. NOTICE OF SALE Freak Crops Costly Time and money are lost by Ore gon farmers each year through promo tion of freak crops by dealers who sell seed at high prices by misrepre sentation, says G. R. Hy'slop, chief of farm crops at the O. A. C. xperiment station. The station invests money every year in investigation of these freaks and has established a saivice to keep growers informed of the re sults of trials. If the crops are not profitable, the station finds it out and will tell any inquirer, who may thus save the loss of money and cror that comes from failure. Alaskan, Titan ic ( durum and Polish wheats, f mmer, and Eureka clover are some of the wonder" crops found generally un worthy.
