MARSHFIELD. Or., Aug. 12. (Spe
cial.) Coos Bay has more play
grounds than any other section
of Oregon, with its fresh-water lakes,
fceach resorts, river resorts and points
of general attraction. Any of the sur
rounding places can be reached, at
the longest in two hours, and such
places are located where communica
tion is "had by water.
When Coos Bay's guests come here
to celebrate the completion of the Willamette-Pacific
Railroad, they are not
coming to view any set programme,
although there are programmes for
both- the North Bend and Marshfleld
days, August 24 and 26. Boats and
automobiles will be running constantly
from the opening day until the close.
carrying sightseers to points on the
bay and on both branches of Coos Riv
r. It is patent that many people who
come here will have little desire to
watch parades and will employ their
time in seeing what there is here in the
way of natural beauty spots, Indus
tries and resources. Such will have
every opportunity to satisfy their curi
sity.
Sunset Bay is now the most popular
place for automobilists, as it is on the
ocean and visitors can look out to sea
and climb about on the rocks, or bathe

TTodern Poultry Culture
?CIEjrCB IX FEEDING POUL
TRY.
There Is science in feeding.
le feeds furnish more heat
fat than others, and some
best adapted to growing
leathers, bone, and eggs. No
grain should be fed exclusively.
When a ration is well balanced
the object is more readily at
tained, and the fowls keep in the
best of health.
BT MICHAEL K. EOTER.
Poulty Editor of the Farm Journal.
CORN, wheat and oats, .with their
by - products, cornmeal, gluten
meal, bran, middlings and oatmeal
(or ground oats), are the chief articles
In the rations adopted by th. American
poultrymen.
The analysis of whole corn is 10.9
water, 1.6 ash, 10.5 protein, 2.1 fiber,
69.6 nitrogen free extract and 6.4 fat.
That of cornmeal is 15.0 water, 1.4 ash,
9.2 proteln.M.9 fiber. 68.7 nitrogen free
extract, 3.8 fat. Gluten meal is 8.6
water. 0.S ash, 30.0 protein, 2.6 fiber.
49.2 nitrogen free extract. 8.8 fat. Corn
meal is 89 per cent digestible, and Is
the standard starchy feed. Gluten meal
is very digestible protein concentrate
31.B per cent digestible protein) and
ranks with linseed meal in nutritive
value.
Corn has one part of digestible pro
tein to 10.8 parts of digestible carbo
hydrates and fats. It is an excellent
heating food for Winter feeding, and
has strong fattening qualities.
Gluten meal and feeds are the by
products in the manufacture df starch
and glucose from Indian corn. In other
words, that portion of commercial
shelled corn that remains after the
separation of the larger part of the
starch, th. germ and the bran by the
processes employed m the manufacture
of cornstarch and glucose. It is a very
digestible protein concentrate.
The value of corn as a poultry food
Is in the large amount of oil and sugar
it contains and the ease of digestion.
It is the richest in carbohydrate nutrl
ents (with the exception or sun
flower seed and flaxseed) but decided
ly low in the mineral nutrients, and
weak in protein. Corn should be fed
with such food, as are rich in protein
and ash.
Wheat analysis shows a difference in

if they choose. Outside Sunset Bay. 1
out of sight until the sightseer
clambers aroutad one of the headlands,
is a rockbound coast of great pictur
esqueness. Several large rocks stand
at the entrance, among them Saddle
Rock, so-called from its formation.
Sunset is a harbor of refuge for small
craft which are caught at sea and can
not cross the bar into Coos Bay. Boats
drawing seven, feet of water can enter
here, and the fishing fleet frequently
lie here during stormy, rough weather.
The district has a number of Summer
cottages, and a fine restaurant, where
seafood and other first-class meals are
served.
Shoreacres Delightful Place.
Shoreacres, L. J. Simpson's palatial
country home, is one mile south of
Sunset, and stands on a rocky prom
ontory 70 feet above the ocean. From
here one can scan the sea and watch
through glasses the craft passing up
and down the coast. Shoreacres is
noted principally for its beautiful gar
dens, but the ruggedness of the sur
roundings carries an awe which is
quite entrancing.
The Cape Arago lighthouse is three
quarters of a mile north of Sunset Bay.
and is always an attractive place to
visit. Captain J. Dunson is an obliging
and courteous keeper, and takes pleas
ure in showing visitors the grounds,
lighthouse and explaining the opera
tions of the light and the duties of a
keeper. The surroundings at the light
house are bleak and rugged, the point
on which the lighthouse is situated pro
jecting into the sea so that on all sides
but one a person can look out upon the
water. From here Captain Dunson
the Spring and Winter varieties. Spring
wheat calls for 10.4 water. 1.9 ash, 12.6
protein, 1.8 fiber. 71.2 nitrogen free ex
tract and 2.2 fat. Winter wheat has
10.5 water, 1.8 ash, 11.8 protein, 1.8
fiber, 72.0 nitrogen free extract, 2.1 fat.
Of the by-products, bran has 11.-9
water, 5.8 ash. 15.4 protein. 9.0 fiber,
63.9 nitrogen free extract, and 4.0 fat.
Middlings have 12.1 water, 3.3 ash, 15.6
protein, 4.6 fiber, 60.4 nitrogen free ex
tract and 4.0 fat.
Wheat stands at the head of all poul-
i I try grains, it is the most nearly com

bran and middlings are of more value.
pound for pound, than the whole grain.
Wheat bran consists mostly of the
outer coverings of the wheat kernel.
and a good quality should contain at
least 1 per cent of protein. Wheat
middlings consist chiefly of the inner
layers of the covering of the wheat
kernel.
Wheat bran is only 62 per cent
digestible, has 12.5 per cent of digesti
ble protein, and from the standpoint of
nutrition cannot otherwise be regard
ed than as an expensive feed. But it
is palatable, slightly laxative and forms
a valuable feed with which to mix the
heavier concentrates. Wheat middlings
possess about 25 per cent greaterfeed-
ing value than bran.
While wheat bran is not so rich in
protein as gluten feed, gluten meal, oil
meal, or the best grades of wheat or
buckwheat middlings, it contains more
mineral matter. It also adds bulk, to
the ration so that the stomach juices
can act upon it.
Middlings contain very little crude-
fiber. Being rich in glutinous matter,
middlings are most valuable to use
with cornmeal and in the mashes of all
PTOMAIXB POISONING AMONG
FOWLS.
Ptomaine poisoning among
fowls, caused by the eating of
putrid flesh, is commonly known
as "limberneck." Because of its
similarity to other diseases, it is
frequently confounded therewith.
The nature of this ailment, it.
symptoms and how to treat and
safeguard against this disease, is
th. subject of next week's article,
and everyone interested in poul
try should b. aur. to read It.

pass in and out of Coos Bay. the bar
lying north between half and three
quarters of a mile. When fog obscures
the coast, it Is sometimes difficult to
determine the name of a craft that Is
making the bar, but the record is
almost invariably caught by the coast
guard lookout, two miles farther inside
the bay, where the distance are not so
great.-
Beach Scene of Wreck.
Bastendorff Beach, a mile and a half
from the lighthouse, toward, the upper
bay. is a low break in the headlands
which extend from Charleston Bay to
the Arago light. Here is one of the
common camping places. There is a
shallow beach half a mile in length
that offers the best bathing place on
the bay. Campers occupy nearly all
the available space at Bastendorff'.
during July and August. This beach
and nearby coves have been the scenes
of many wrecks. The ill-fated Eanta
Clara was forced on the sands here,
and 12 persons lost their lives last
November. Following the wreck the
salving of the vessel's cargo, which
caused several Government investiga
tions, took place. Several hundred tons
of merchandise were taken from the
vessel after she was grounded, and
some of the mail sacks were opened
and the contents extracted. This act
caused the Government to send de
tectives her, but no prosecution, have
been made.
Charleston Bay really offer, the
greatest attractions of any place on
rations containing much corn. But
mash made largely of middling, is
doughy, sticky and not relished by
fowls. One-fourth to one-third is the
proportion of middling, commonly
used.
Food That Give. Energy.
Oats are richer in digestible protein
than either corn or wheat. The oil con
tent, however, is about the same as in
corn. The starchy Viaterlal i. propor
tionately low. Good oats are probably
the best whole grain to balance a
heavy corn ration. There is a greater
stimulating value In oat. than In other
grains.
The analysis of oat. Is 11.0 water. 1.0
ash, 11.8 protein. 9.5 fiber, 59.7 nitrogen
free extract and 5.0 fat.
An English analysis of oats Is 6 per
cent of fat, 15 per cent of flesh-form
ing, 47 per cent of warmth-giving, and
2 per cent of bone-making properties.
The husk or fiber is extremely great.
being zo per cent of the whole.
The same authority says best wheat
contains 3 per cent of fat, 12 per cent
or flesh-forming. 70 per cent of
warmth-giving, and 2 per cent of bone-
making properties, with very little
husk or fiber.
Of Indian corn one authority states
there is 8 per cent fat, 12 per cent

ing, and 1 per cent of bone-making!
qualities.
Oats are not recommended for a fin
ishing food, while fattening for mar
ket, a,s they produce a light color to ne
skin and shanks, not desirable in
American carcasses.
Other grains than corn, wheat and
oats are frequently added to the bill of
fare by some poultrymen, chief among
which are Kafir corn, buckwheat and
barley.
The analysis of Kafir, corn is 12.5
water. 1.3 ash. 10.9 protein. 1.9 fiber,
70.5 nitrogen free extract, and 2.9 fat.
For buckwheat. 12.6 water, 2.0 ash. 10.0
protein, 8.7 fiber, 64.5 nitrogen free
extract and 2.2 fat. For barley. 10.9
water, 2.4 ash. 12.4 protein. 2.7 fiber,
69.8 nitrogen free extract and 1.8 fat.
Kafir corn is on. of the very best
graioa for poultry, and more suitable
for general feeding than Indian corn.
