-SILAGE UNAFFECTED "
BY RECENT BAINS
Wo Water Needed Now, Says
Farm Expert.
HOW TO TEST EXPLAINED
Corn and Santlowers In Valley and
Coast Districts Likely to Be
Good This Year.
Methods of putting -up silage' tliis
fall are not modified by the extreme
ly wet weather, except that no water
will have to be added unless the crop
has been frosted or grown under dry
farm conditions, said G. R. Hyslop,
head of farm crops at the Oregon
Agricultural college experiment sta
tion. There is no convenient way to tell
whether water should be added ex
cept by squeezing a handful in the
palm of the hand," he explained. "If
the silage thus tested gives out water
on this pressure no more is needed.
If the plant surface -remains dry and
the squeezed ball rebounds on relax
ing the pressure, the crop is too dry
and needs additional water."
' Both corn and sunflowers in the
alley and coast districts are likely
to be wet enough when mature
enough for good silage. Sunflowers
srrown under irrigation in eastern
and central Oregon will quite prob
ably likewise be wet enough at
silage maturity.
Frost Requires Water.
After either of these crops has been
frosted, water may be necessary.
If the crops are allowed to stand
tintil they have lost all green color
and the seeds are thoroughly hard,
they will not make as good silage as
if cut earlier. Water will have to
be added to replace the lost juices and
to make the cut silage pack well.
The product will have lost some suc
culence, just aa grasses do when
cured into hay.
Corn is best cut for silage when the
grain has reached but not passed the
dented stage and is beginning to
glaze. Varieties that reach this stage
before frost have been found best
for every locality.
-The most successful sunflower
' grrower in central Oregon has got best
results with silage made when the
crop was about 75 per cent in the
dough stage of seed.
Corn Binder Most Savins;.
The most economic means of cut
ting corn and sunflowers is with the
corn binder. The corn sled is like
wise used to good advantage. Cut
ting with corn knives is the most
laborious and expensive way to har
vest the silage crop.
Use of large silage cutters makes
It necessary to get considerable ma
terial cut before filling the silo be
'gins, in order to keep the haulers
busy. - -
Low racks are most satisfactory for
hauling the crop. The corn and sun
flower material should be put into
the silo as soon as possible after
cutting.
racklns HI out Important.
Right distribution and thorough
packing to exclude the air arc in
dispensible to good silage. Several
of the best men on the job are UBed
for packing by the most successful
farmers. Unlike the surface in stack
ing hay, the outside should be kept
the highest and receive the heaviest
tramping.
Depth of spoilage Is determined
largely "by the amount of packing.
The amount of spoiled silage may be
reduced by fitting a tarred paper over
the top after thorough tramping, then
covering with a big load of silage
well packed on. Very little will spoil
beneath the paper.
JACKSON . IiK.VDS IX PEARS
tate Statistics Show 5 2 64 Acres
of Bearing Trees in Country.
MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 24. (Special.)
The agricultural and horticultural
statistics of the state for 1920 reveal
that Jackson county teads Oregon in
pear . acreage and stands second in
apple acreage. The county, or valley,
has 5264 acres of bearing pear trees
and 2787 acres of non-bearing pear
trees. Douglas county has the second
largest pear acreage with 785 acres
and Hood River comes next with 3S5
acres.
Hood River county leads the state
in apple acreage with S827 acres of
bearing apples and 1619 in non-bearing
apple trees. Jackson county has
but 5091 acres of bearing apple trees
and 604.25 in non-bearing trees.' This
county's acreage of other fruits is
rather slim, having only 337 acres of
peach trees, 110 acres of prunes, 39.25
in cherries. 7.50 acres of loganber
ries, ' 3.75 acres of blackberries and
raspberries, 20 acres of strawberries
and 91 acres in other berries and

OKEGOX CITT. Or., Oct. 24.' (Spe
cial.) A hill of potatoes on the prop
erty of J. K. Harris in Mountain View
addition to Oregon City produced 7S
food sized potatoes, besides a num
ber having been dug from the vine
earlier in the season. Mr. Harris
ays this sounds rather "fishy," but
has a -witness who was standing close
by when he dug the potatoes. The po
. tato vine was a volunteer and extend
ed about IS inches below the surface
cf the soil. A large water bucket
was filled with the Burbank potatoes.
Mr. Harris, whose former home was
U Salem, purchased the acre of land
about a year ago. formerly known as
the Boyd property. The land was
flomewhat run down, and by planting
feerry bushes and strawberry vines.
this year he has realized$50 from the
sales of his garden. He is contem
plating planting some of the land to
potatoes, since the Burbanks have
yielded so proliflcally.-.
MILK PROJECT" IS LAUNCHED
Agricultural College Starts Move
i
in Clackamas County.
Greater efficiency in 'milk produc
tion is the purpose of a project
launched by the farm management de
partment of the agricultural college
extension service in Clackamas coun
ty, through the county farm bureau.
The dairymen of the district . have
been supplied with report blanks
upon which they will enter all items
of expense in milk production and
all returns from the products of the
dairy operations.
R. V. Gunn has Just returned from
the Clackamas district; -where, work
ing with the county agent, R. J. Scott,
and farm bureau officers, he inter
ested a number of representative
dairymen in the project.

CHLITZ FARMS GROW
GOVERNMENT STATEMENT IN
DICATES INCREASE.
Indications Are That Large Tracts
of Decade Ago Have Been
Broken Up of Late.
THE OEEGOSIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Oct. 24. Cowlitz county.
Wash., had 1066 farms in January,
1920, as against 909 April 15, 1910, ac
cording to figures returned Dy tne
census bureau. All but five of the
farms were operated by white farm
ers, 940 by owners or managers ana
126 by tenants.
The gain in farm acreage has hard
ly kept pace with the increase in the
number of farmers, indicating that
some of the larger farms of a decad
ago have been broken up to give
homes to new agriculturists. The
total acreage of Cowlitz county farms
in 19!0 is 110,256, as compared with
106.553 ten years ago. Improved
acres are 27,994, as compared with
21.233 in 1910.
A., greater growth, however, is
shown in the increase in value of
land and buildings which was $7,087,
696 January 1 1920, as against J4.120.
833 in 1910, a gain of $2,917,136, or
70 8 per cent. These farms produced
crops In 1919 and 1909 as follows:
Oats, 210.899 and 74,648 bushels;
wheat 33,333 and 12.320 bushels; hay,
27.543 and 19,529 tons; "potatoes, 128,
299 and 160,467, the only crop loss
from 1910 being in potatoes.
romestic animals are reported in
1920 as follows: Horses, 2339; mules,
29; cattle, 11,708; sheep, 2672; swine,
3913.
SOIIi IS BURNED IN SPAIN
Student at Oregon Agricultural
College Explains- Methods.
The Spanish method of improving
the physical condition of the soil -by
burning is explained "by Guillermo
Oifre, young Spanish student at the
Oregon Agricultural college, who is
registered from Mallorca island, one
of the Belleares belonging to Spain.
He is taking a course in horticulture,
spcciali'.ing in packs, packing and
marketing fruit.
"It is a well-known fact that - to
grow vegetables it is necessary to
have a loose soil easily penetrable
for the small plant root," he says.
"This loose soil may be found near
rivers in its natural form. Heavy
soil may be modified by adding a
certain quantity of sand, but if the
river or the sand deposit is a consid
erable distance from the garden it
would be impractical to convey the
sand to the garden because of the
high cost of handling.
"In Spain we use an original meth
od. When the harvest is over we
plow or spade the ground and dis
tribute bundles of dry branches, com
monly obtained through pruning..
They are placed 10 to 15 feet apart
and covered with a thin cap of straw.
Then a half-foot layer of the surface
soil, leaving only a 6 to 9-inch hole
near the ground through which we
start a fire. It is the same .method
by which charcoal is obtained in the
woods." "
Potato Workers Scarce.
YAKIMA, Wash., Oct. 24. (Special.)
Potato growers in some parts of
Yakima valley are having trouble get
ting sufficient help, according tq re
ports, and on that account it is ex
pected that the spud harvest will be
prolonged beyond the normal period.
Many growers are pitting their po
tato crops.

Foggy"- Teeth?
Like so many others, you per
haps know what it is to wake up in
the morning, with your teeth look
ing a little dingy and foggy, -and -feeling
rough to the tongue. On
such occasions it is a fortunate;
'.hingto have a tube of Pebeco
Tooth Paste on hand.
TOOTH PASTE
Counteracts "Acid-Mouth"
, 'its scientifically blended ingredients
are of such a character that they literally
'wake up" the mouth. Just a little ,
Pebeco on the brush and plenty of water,1
and in a short time your teeth look brighter'
and feel smoother, the gums are refreshed
and the whole interior of jour mouth i3
keenly invigorated. Pebeco stimulates
the normal flow of natural alkaline saliva,
which is so effective for washing out
mouth acids and other unfavorable secre-
tions that form during sleep.
