General Mine Strike Given Unon Sanction Pittsburg, Kan.. Aug. 13. (U.- P.) Permission to call a general strike of miners 'of Missouri and Kansas has been granted by John I Lewis, acting inter national president of the Mine Workers of America, it .was learned today. Klamath Falls, Aug. 13. More than 200 farmers and their families in 38 au tomobiles journeyed from one to an other of the numerous- crop demonstra tions organized by 13. II. Thomas, coun ty agent, . and W. W. Johnston, field agent of Oregon Agricultural college. By 10:30 o'clock the road in front of the Harry Telford ranch was linedwlth machines and the demonstration' of a combination silage and hay cutter by H.Vatton of the John Deere Plow com pany of Portland was held. Results of chopping the alfalfa show a total increase in feeding returns of from 10 to 30 per cent under varying condi tions. Headed by Thomas, the farmers mo tored to the E. E. McClay ranch, to see a sulphur demonstration on alfalfa. Mc Clay had applied the sulphurs with a land plaster spreader, using 100 pounds an acre, which ,has given him an In crease in yietd of , three quarters of a ton for the first cutting. SULPHUR USK BENEFICIAL The Altamont ranch was the next stop, and in the shade of old poplars was spread a wonderful picnic dinner. Professor Hyslop of the Oregon Agri cultural college spoke on results of ex periments with alfalfa in the state, and recommended the Grim or Baltic va rieties. . . O. M. Plummer of the Pacific Inter national Livestock exposition of Port land' made a plea for better stock, bet ter homes and better babies, as well as for the International show. - It Is sur prising how little pure bred stock there is in this country that has been a large producer for years, he said. Professor E. L. Potter told of the re sults of livestock feeding experiments conducted at the Union experiment sta tion .nd especially recommended 'alfalfa and silage. Ke outlined the necessity and opportunity for breeding ' better stock to supply the ranges with good sires. Similar countries have - made themselves wealthy in just lhls-way, he said. . V . -' . . At the Frank McCornack ranch, a sul phur demonstration- showed an Increase of over a ton an acre from two cut tings. ' He had applied "only 80 pourrtis an acre of the sulphur. Sulphur costs less than 3 cents a pound in Klamath Falls. SUNFLOWER TIELD HEATT McCornack Is one of the few breeders of pure bred cattle and sheep In the county. He has good stock and good feed for them. Another, demonstration on his ranch showedthat alsike and timothy far outyielded the native swamp growth and was better, feed; While this is not yet weighed up, a conservative estimate is five tons an acre for one cutting. This is on diked land reclaimed at considerable expense and now en dangered by a power dam upon which construction is soon expected to begin. The party next visited the ranch of II. A. Talbot, a pioneer in this part of the country in sunflower silage work. He has dug out a pit silo from a hill side next; his barn - and has several acres of fine sunflowers surely good for 10 to 12 tons an acre. He will dig more silos before another year," as this crop, or peas and oats, or even farm waste as weeds when siloed and fed with' alfalfa hay will carry a lot. of stock.
