Hold Sidie grower for his to have any say about the price produce. Since we have had cot opeiatMn it has been one seller to many buyers, giving the producer the power to namje the price. "I retail the time when the prune and apricot! growers of California used to go to jlhe packers with their products and ear in a timid "manner : 'Here Is our fruit; what will you give us for ItV In thofee days we were at the mercy of the packers. They had, us by the throat because we were unorganized. Now we have our cooperative associa tions, a id are no longer dependent upon the pai :kers. We are in a position to advise the packers that we have a price and a uniform one for our fruit and we havo a market for 1U We are no longer at the tiercy of the packers." Coleman, who has been closely asso ciated (with the cooperative movement among jfrult growers of California, spoke at length ,of the progress of the move ment In that i state. The California Prune and Apricot Growers' association, with a membership of nearly 10,000, in cludes (within its membership practically every (fruit grower of ; that district, he declared. The. Oregon Growers' Co . operati ve association, he predicted, ; would -bring prosperity and Independ ence to; the fruit and berry producers of this stte just as the California organU I xatlon has brought prosperity and Inde . pendente to the growers of his state.

Stewart It as a real big get-together meetlnfc of the fruit growers of the Willunette valley when they met at their first picnic,-August 10, in the grove just outside , of the en trance to the State Fair grounds at Salem. It ; was a "get-together" meeting in more ways than one; for not orily did the people become acquainted and have a good time, but many also become better ac quainted with the Idea of coopera tive marketing as-well as means .of combating the natural . enemies of the frtiit and the fruit - Industry. About 600 growers gave their1 un divided! attention to the speakers from" lit until; 4, with an hour taken off for the spread of picnic lunches vnder the oaks. ; I " SPKECK 18 GIVE J.j !

Poultry Experiment 1 Oregon Agricultural College, Corval- ilis. Aug: 14 Culling out 79 weak lay- i ers frdm a flock of 992 hens on the farm ' of Ralph Ogleeby, Banks, Or., reduced j the wjeekly yield of the flock only .. CO J eggs. The culling was done by A. S. Welanit, poultry ' specialist, and Hubert K. Codby", extension poultry specialist of the state college. The flock unculled produced 3576 eggs in ' the! week before culling. The culled ' flock of 913 ' hens laid 3520 the week 1 after culling. The culls buckled in and 1 laid 8: eggs under precisely similar con 1 dltloiu. , J : The market value of the culls eggs, j was : .69, Mr. Cosby figures in the Ore gon P mltry Life. At a cent a day for ' feed I : 'or each hn the cost of feed alone for the ', culls was $5.53 for the t week -a net loss of $3.34. "Thdse figures show the need of keep , Ing orily the best layers," says Cosby. "Feed has always-been, too high to feed ' to poor hens, but never yet too high to ' feed a high producer.'' ' Methods of culling can' be had b sending to O. A. C, Corvallis.7 1 NOTES The poultry culling .demonstrations be ing; conducted throughout the state are attracting .wide and favorable attention. During j the past week ; several well at tended meetings have been held In Linn county, j Meetings will be held in Mult nomah I county on August 17-18-19-20, witih county agent S. B. Hall, and Pro fessor H. K. Cosby, extension poultry man from O. A. C in charge. NON-LAYING HEN IS MONEY LOSER It Is a wise plan to think of the leak In your poultry business. It. is in direct ratio to the . number of low producing culj hens, j the slow, growing pullet that becomes a cull hen, the large number . of surplus cockerels and the number of lice and mites kept. ' !-..'.. : In Washington county 992 hens were examined and 79 cull hens removed on June 28. The entire flock laid 3578 eggs duiting the seven days preceding culling. The 913 hens left after culling laid 3520 eggs the week following. The removal of the 79 hens lowered the -wjeekly total just 00 ieggs. The per cent of production be fore culling was 61.5 per cent ; after culJing it was 55.1 per cent. The 79 culls, some of which were laying when thrown In the cull yard, laid 85 eggs during the seven days following Culling. That is about one egg per hen per week. The 85 ieggs at this time had a market value of 38c per dozen or a total of 32.69. The cost of feeding these hens one week was $5.65. This is a typical .leak In the busi ness and the longer such hens are kept the greater the loss becomes. Feed is not too expensive for a good hen and it has always been too high for a low pro ducing one. iThe object of a community egg circle ts to secure and improve better strains of j poultry, to produce more eggs of good color and size, to handle eg-gs more carefully -.in order to avoid waste, to pack a uniform grade of clean, fresh eggs in order to be able to guarantee them and thus create a reputation ; to market same more directly to the con sumer, to purchase supplies in a cooper ative way and to do such other things as) may prove of benefit to the members aifd the community. ! - f . ; - ' The poultry yard should be stirred or spaded up frequently If not In sod. This will not only tend to keep down any odors which might arise, but also allow the droppings to be absorbed Into the seal Snore readily and therefore keep the yard; in better condition for the hens. The business of raising! poultry has been growing very rapidly during re cent years in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest until it has become one of the leading agricultural industries. Probably nothing has done, more to stimulate this development than the rapid increase - in knowledge ot the physical characters which i Indicate pro ductive qualities in poultry, and the ap plication of this knowledge to selection of 'fowls for egg production, and culling or getting rid of the poor producers. 1 It has been known for some 1 time through study of trapnest records, that In dividuals vary widely in their producing powers, that some hens -were profitable and that others lose money regularly. Owing to the fact that trapnestlng re quires a great deal of time and is ex pensive, it is not practical; for the aver age farmer. '. - - s t - - - The Investigators of the country have, therefore, been studying trapnest records in an effort to work out some means of separating producers from non-producers without trapnestlng. which canr be ap plied by anyone with a " reasonable de- gree of accuracy. With htigh prices for feed, labor and equipment which now prevail, it Is absolutely essential that non-producers be eliminated. It costs practically as much to keep a non-lay' ins; as it does to keep a laying hen. A few of these non-layers in a flock will not only decrease the average production, and therefore decrease the profits, but they also require space In the houses, which can be utilized to much better, ad vantage by layers. : 1 SELECT BEST BREEDS ;.," ' The whole future of the poultry busi ness depends upon the ability of the poul tryman not only to eliminate the non producers, but to select; the best in dividuals for breeding purposes. It has been clearly demonstrated that egg pro duction is an inherited character and if we want to breed high-laying stock, we must select that kind -of stock, for our breeding flocks. t The demand for accurate information and Instruction in this work has been rapidly Increasing, and tun attempt has been made to meet this demand through the establishment of the school for poul try judging, culling and j breeding held under auspices of the poultry department of the New York State College of Ag riculture at Ithaca. N "XI. The objects of this meeting, as expressed by Pro fessor James EL Pice, are; as follows : "A judging school for study, identifica tion, description and application of char acters indicating quality in breeding and judging poultry for egg production and meat production, and to assist in stand ardization and development of breeds and varieties of poultry in (conformity to natural laws as expressed in produc tion." I !, FOB STANDARDIZED METHODS j At this meeting leading investigators and poultry specialists of the entire country gathered together for a week to exchange ideas, discuss new information and to work out standardised methods of judging and culling, which will (embody the very latest and best information available. r ; Professor C.

SECURES GOLDEN GLOW BULL Golden Glow'aChieftain. a 75 per cent son of Golden Glow's Chief, the well ' known Jersey sire, recently owned by the Oregon Asrrlcultural collegre, has Just been purchased by Henry Stewart of Green Meadow Farm, Albany, Or. I - c Golden Glow's Chieftain was leased by Stewart from the collegre for more than two years - daring: which time he - was mated with a number of excellent cows, the results being; a fine lot, of young heifers and bulls. The type and confor mation of this bull's calves is excellent. Golden Glow's Chieftain is a son and grandson of Golden Glow's" Chief, his dam Old Man's Darling-, being: a sold medal cow, who; as a mature cow, pro duced 14,130.1 pounds of milk and 862 pounds and 5 ounces of ; butter. ' Old Man's' Darling- is also dam of Old Man's Darling-' 2d, junior 4-year-old champion of the breed, producing 1157 pounds and 4 ounces of 85 per cent butter ; Golden Glow's Sophie, whose 2-year-old record is more than 470 pounds of butter fat, and Oregon Park Chief, a son. who was old fpr $500 at six months of age. , The Stewart herd is rich in the blood of the Golden Glow Chief strath, as pre vious to the purchase of this bull he had owned two daughters and- one son of Golden Glow's Chief, and some of the calves now in his herd carry as much as 62 H per cent of the blood of Golden Glow's Chief. . .Three of the young bulls recently sold by Stewart were sired by Golden Glow's Chieftain, the last being purchased by Watt B. Rice of Kainler, who. In start ing a herd, has selected Tootsie's Golden Chieftain No. 177824. a son of Golden Glow's Chieftain and out of Tootsle Wild Rose, a granddaughter of Golden Glow's chief. - whose R- of M. " record Is 755 pounds 13.6 ounces of butter from 10,108 pounds and 4.8 ounces milk, to head his herd. ' " ' Hen Requires Aid Of Turkey, Guinea '. And Duck on Farm The hen,: first and last, is the main dependence for increasing: the supply of white meat and eggs on a farm, but she requires the aid of turkeys, guineas, geese and ducks. Just as on a . dairy farm the cow requires the 'aid of pies, sheep and goats.- The setting - of. the standard at 100 hens per farm is safe, but no such arbitrary .standard can be set -for the other kinds of poultry, ay the poultry specialists of. the United States department of agriculture.- The small farm, with grain fields of neighboring-, farm in ; proximity to the barn and dooryard, would, perhaps, be better ! without turkeys.' - The farm through which, no streams run and be out shortly and will be full of the latest Information along the Jtnes brought out at the Cornell meeting.

Ten acres of eun flowera at the Eastern bregron State hos pital wer harvested the past week for silage' and two 150-ton alios are filled with the yield.; It was at first intended that the sunflowers 'should , supplement corn as a silage crop j but such a tre mendous yield was obtained that the silos were filled without the corn. ' The use of sunflowers for silage has become quite general! In this county and most growers find tha. It yields far more tonnage per acre than corn. A. A. Bixby, of Umapine, ilampton & Gulll ford, Louis Atterbury and Tom Boylen, all of Echo, and J. Ei Troxel, of Pen dleton, all report big crops..

Utah Notet - For free copied oi other articles of this series, send reqofst to tbe asthor. - We live In a timi of prophecy and promise. The prophet of God, be It remembered. Is a fulfiller of predictions as -well as .tm. predictor. Inspired prophecies throughout the ages past, so far as they relate to pre-millennlal developments of the plvlne purpose, point to this current time as the period of consummation. j r , . -' In the literal een8e we live in the last days not merely the latest that have been, but the laJrt that are to be prior to the second coming of our Lord the Christ who Is soon to return to the earth,-on -which He lived, labored, suf fered, died and was resurrected. . As In olden days, so now, Qafl has prophets amons; men, who are authorized and directed to declare His will and to summon mankind to bear and heed. Joseph Smith was; the first prophet of this dispenHatlon. He spoke and I wrought In a Name and by a Power greater than his own. That he was con temned and flouted through Ignorance ana prejudice, that his mestiajre to the world has been, openly denounced and derided, that he suffered pernec,ut!or culminating in martyrdom, constitute, by analogy, evidence of his genuinpnesui, for such were the experiences of the prophets of old, and even of the Savior Himself, who, of U prophets, seers and revelators. was the greatest. As a falflller of anelewt prophecy, as a chosen and authorized agent through whom Divine predictions have become realities, Joseph Hmlth is the most prom inent figure In history i nee the close of our Lord's earthly ministry. 1 pray you consider dispassionately, the few facts cited below, which are illustrative of many. j - - 1. ,The .restoration' of the Gospel- toy 'ancelKJ embassage is specified as a feature of the last days. Read Rev. 14:6-7. In the year 1K27. a heavenly per sonage disclosed to Jopeph Smith the depository of a record, containing, a the visitant averred and as subsequent translation proved. 1U fnlness e( the everlasting Gospel a delivered by the Karior to the aneleBt Inhab- Itans" of whom the 'record speaks... Kurthe rmore. In lJo.KZX nhtUTAOlM Hants" of iwhom the -record-speaks, i Furthermore, In 182S, John the Baptlat .nntT-rari iinnn th lnf tr-dav nroDhet.1 by the lavinff on of hands, tha anthr.ritv of the Aaronic Priesthood ; and later the Holy Apontleshlp was bestowed under I the bands of Peter, James and Jonn, tne presiding Apostles In the Primitive Church. Under the Divine commission thus Imposed, the restored Uospel hax been preached-throughout the greater part of the world. 2. Through 'the prophet Malachl the Lord promised to send Wljah with special appointment. I Read Malachl 4, particularly verses 6 and 6. In lsa Elijah appeared to Joseph Smith, and committed unto him the keys of authority for administering the 1 ordinances of salvation in behalf of the dead, whereby the living may officiate in the stead of their -departed progenitors. 5. The reassembling of the tribes of Israel after their dlnperelon of centurle has been predicted by many prophets.! Joseph Smith solemnly avr that hr was visited by Moses the deliverer of Israel, who commissioned him for the work "of the gathering of Israel from the foar parts df the earth." eta As to the earnestness with which this labor has been begun, and the progresH already made therein, canfdde the hundreds of thousands belonging to the families of Israel already gathered. In the valleys of the Rocky Mountains, about the Houne of the Lord, there established. Read Mlcah 4:1-2. 4. Isaiah foretold the bringing forth of a record, which should be as thr voice of the dead, the history of a nation brought low into the duat. Kpad Isa 29:4. The ; miraculous, revealment of the Book of Mormon, and Us publication In modern' tongues through Joseph Smith's agency, furnish a literal and cir cumstantial fulfilment. Thus also has been realized the prophecy given through Kzeklel, that the stick or record of Judah, which Is the Moly Jilble, should become one with tbatof Joseph, which is the Book of Mormon. Read Kzekiel 171-1V ' 1 6. The last dispensation wa long ago proclaimed as a period of restoration and restitution. Read Acta 2:19-21 and-Kph. 1 :9-10. - Joseph Smith testified that through the ministrations of heavenly-beings he was directed to pen up this, the dispensation i of fulness, restoration and restitution; and thnt to t!W Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints "1 tba power of tbls Priesthood glTen, for tbe last days asd for the last time, la, tbe which Is the dlspeasatlua of the fatness of tirues." (Doctrine & Covenants 11! :30;. - .Thus was Joseph Smith empowered for the work pertaining to the final restoration of the Gospel a prophet fulfilling prophecy. There Is but one answer adequate, consistent and logical, as to the status of this man, and as to the eternal significance of the work be wrought; Joseph , Smith was traly a Prophet of the Most High God.
