"All through Oregon more silos are being erected and more corn ia being raised. A notable thing this spring is that; large stock raisers in Eastern Ore gon I are raising mora feed for their cattle. They see" the possibility of ma turing their herds for the market a year to IS months sooner, by providing fodder from soma of their idle acres.

The circus this year had three heavy "turn aways" Monday. Two thousand persons were turned away on Monday afternoon and hundreds waited till 10 o'clock to see the second performance Monday night. as a cattle food is growing remarkably. "In places where corn cannot be grown, some .of the silos are being filled with sunflowers and rye. Sunflowers as ensilage have been successfully tried in Montana and since sunflowers; are not killed by frost they are easily grown in high cold places. Mere silos are being filled with rye than ever before, and this makes fine ensilage, t "Crop conditions may be j reported good over the entire state, but the Wil lamette valley especially is promised a wonderful harvest."
