Miaub f'ntvrnsl Henries Htatf (Correspondent Chicago, Keb. 19. -Determined to nia.ke a market for their products the Mountain States honey product era of Idaho have opened headquar ters in Chicago and are Belling di rect to the consumer at little more than half, the price that honey has ben retailing in Chicago. lxRan It.

He opened a store with a carlouj of honey and' announced he has ::0 more carloads to sell when- the first its Koiie. ( (! MKKS PttOUT ' "VVe have a dual purpose in our move," Kield today. "VVe had to create a market in spite of hlsh freight rats and oinmiM.siona for brokers and we wanted tite consumer to set the benefit of prof Its that would have rone to Jobbers and wholesaler J1 -we had sold hrongii thd old marketing channela." He is welling 10-pound paita of -honey for 3 and five-pound palls for Jialf . that amount. Other retailers are charging i uO to 60 cents a pound. . "Our lioney. - Ilk our other crops," continued Kield, "is the . settt in the Went, but we' have a hard time retting H to the consumes because of the freight rates and th rt-off that everyone gets -in selling in thc'Jbld way. ?

Our fruit growers- arc now getting a cent and a-half for lhr best apples raised In, the Northwest, which are selling fa Chicago ' for 12 cents. Why should not this big margin be divided - between the producer and consumer?" Tle honey producers' plunge Is one that has often been discussed but never tried before. Marketing experts of Chi cago are showing a great interest In the project.- They have discussed all phases or it with Kield. - - v. "These experts are a little skeptical Field said. "They agree that we should have relief some way -but they are wedded to the old channels of marketing by which the brokers, wholesalers, re. , tatlersH and others get-something out of it. ut we oelleve this plan will work and we expect to demonstrate it to the world. HliHT IS EXPECTED . "I realize we are going to have a bat tle. Just as soon as the fajlows who have been getting a rake off on the nation's produce kn6w that we are mak ing a success of this, they will begin to fight us in every way possible to re tain their spoils." : i 'ield is an Idaho booster. He praises the climate, the soil and the nroducn there. He tells enchanting stories of the , farm life In Idaho' valleys and of the1 reaclaiaii0n projects Ahat the-gov-trnment' is carrying on. "And speaking 6t reclamation and 1r fiSation projects." he said: "The peo ple of Idaho want them to be govern ment built and managed. We don't want ur Irrigation water to get Into the ha i ds of monopolies. "One of the great menaces of the West l the private Ir.tereat '"which Is trying to f,-et control. oX 'the!, water in' Yellowstone Park. The greatest calamity that could befall the Northwest would be for that beautiful park to pass into the hands of a private water trust. PROPAGANDA IS "FALSE" "I have read the" propaganda they are .preading to the effect that the people of Idaho want the water of Yellowstone turned on to irrigation projects. That i false. Only a few men whose hands are itching to get hold of that project udvocate It. - j "The people of Idaho want Yellowstone retained as a park, every foot of it. It ls worth more to us as an attraction for tourists than it would be to ruin its scenic .value for the profit of a few greedy men. , "If some one wants to do something for the people of Idaho let them help us get freight rates that will permit us Ho sell our fruit and hay and other prod ucts, so that the people of. this country can share In the best of everything that is grown." - 1 1 LAYS TWO EGGS A DAY - i : V ' ' - lr - :: ' , , .:; Mf$L' ' - 'Ar ' , - - iS , - Jt t, C Two cjrgj In one day W one of the records field by 'Lady Walnut-Hill," prize PlynKJUth Rock lien owned by the College of Agriculture of tin?

Perfect Spuds Are Put on Exhibition The perfect potato, grown in the Des cnuies country and J'owell butte dis trict, is now on exhibit at th trade and commerce department of the Cham ber of Commerce. " - These potatoes were grown by mem.- oers or me central ' Oregon Potato orowers association from certified seed and were the. first potatoes to be award ed a score of 100 per cent at both the -New York and i Portland land 'shows. Through cooperation with the Oregon Agricultural college, the growers in the IVbchutes district have specialised in the certified seed potato and last year 2000 eacka were placed on the market. - The potatoes are uniform in size and shape, each weighing froto 7 to ounces. - lUhhlts Win Recognition The 'rabbit business as an industry is y - being recognised by many lairs. In the past the . rabbit has ben a part of the poultry exhibit. The superintendent of the newly created rabbit division ,at the Multnomah county fair is George- , H Morrow, who is president ' of the' Ore gon branch of the National Fuiciers and firm. .. s In the beginning of the winter, the hives should be placed so that they will be protected against both cold and. wet. These precautions will prevent it being necessary to move or disturb the hives during the. winter, unless it has-been positively ascertained that the bees are starving and will die if not given food. "Dont ' attempt ! to unite; transferor' move colonies before the fruit trees are in full bloom," Crego says. "Too early manipulation of the bees may lose for you all of 'the: advantages .secured through successful wintering, and the colonies are liable to weaken and dwin dle away, Just at the .time When they. should . otherwise be . building up ready for the harvest. PROMPT START WINS "Where the hives have been protected during the winter months it has been found that ,the brood rearing has been started several weeks earlier, and in consequence; when the first blossoms ap pear, the colony will have a large num ber of workers ready to go to the field and bring in the new pollen so necessary to the welfare of the young brood. It is almost Invariably the colony which gets a strong and early start that later In the season brings in the big crop of honey." . Crego states that In his experience with people who are just starting to raise bees, he has found many of them who become very anxious when they find dead bees ir front of the hives, or scattered about the yard. .' r CASUALTIES USUAL "Included in the hive at the beginning of the wintar are, many bees hatched during the : latter part of the season, who, during the months of close con finement in the hive, will die of old age," declares Crego. - -;"These. old bees will crawl from the cluster, or drop on the bottom of the hfve, and on the first warm day the vig orous workers of the colony will ca'rry out the -dead bees, usually dropping them a short distance away from the hive. Sometimes they are dropped close to the hives in such great quantities as to cause the thought that the entire colony is beiog lost. "It is upon the young bee, which were hatched so late, that they had nothing to do with the brlnfiiig in of the last stores, that the wou of starting brood rearing in the early j-pring will fall." BEES SHOII-U COME OUT Crego states ihat when after a few warm days thcri is i.o activity among the bees, and there are no dead bees in sight, experiencel bet. keepers will sefcfe the first .opportunity to discover why no bees have made their appearance. If it is found that there is a shortage of food in the hive, it is Important that the hive be opened, and the bees given one or (-more frames of honey or a supply of pure sugar syrup, made of two pints of granulated sugar to one pint of water, and placed in a suitable feeder. "Where It is found that the hive has been queenless during the winter, noth ing can be done.- except to wait for the coming of settled warm weather, it-hen the remnant of the colony may be united with another hive. or. If still strong In number, a queen may- be purchased from another breeder, and introduced," states Crego. . - Poultry? JL NOTES. y-9 The extension service of Oregon Agri cultural college has developed the poul try demonstration farm as a means of making progress toward greater and more economical egg productfon in Ore gon. The plans for this work for 1921 have been made by It. E. Cosby, poultry Some timely suggestions upon the care' of bees during the winter months have been made by G. S. Crego, bee expert a -locar seed rnecii,isl- and ,,ave ben presented to ' ' I the various county farm bureau ooul- the various county farm bureau poul try project committees for considera tion1. As a result, a total of 29 of these farms have been located and started off in 11 Western Oregon counties. WHOLESALE RABBIT: KILLING REPORTED The work of exterminating the Jack rabbits in Harney eounty is now in full sway, with "the bulk of the slaughtering being done with strych nin furnished by the county at cost through the , office of the county agent. The weather for the- last 10 days has been favorable for this work and many heavy "kills" have been reported, the highest being made by John Culp, near Burns, of 408 rabbits from 12 pounds of poisoned hay. Several other kills ap proximating this number have been made by various parties, among whom Is Albert Swain, employe of the biologi cal survey assisting County Agent .Mc Daniels in the work of exterminating. Jn connection with the work many puzzling features have been encountered. For instance in one night' around one stack with less than 8 pounds of poisoned alfalfa Jiay, Swain killed 325 rabbits, while Jake Gove, using the same mixture on his ranch near Sage Hen, failed to make a single kill, yet report the rabbits devouring all of the bait put out. Again Swain made a kill of 368 with less than 12 pounds of hay, and Ashburger. using part of the same mix lure, secured only 12. Frank Jackson, using 24 'pounds of the same mixture with which John Culp made his record kill of 408 head, reported no rabbits killed. No justifiable explanation can be sriven for the "spotted kills" being made other than the theory advanced by' County Agent Thomas that the rabbits have been feeding on shrubs which are proving an antidote for the strychnine. This line of reasoning is supported to a certain extent by the fact that in every instance of a failure to kill in Harney county with the poison distributed the rabbits have been feeding exclusively on the sage brush or greasewood areas. A comparison of records from the Missouri national laying test and from the Oregon demonstration farms is of more than passing interest. In Mis- -sourl the 300 carefully- selected birds in the contest averaged 13.69 eggs per bird for the month of December. In Orgon, one of the demonstration farm flocks made a record of 11.11 eggs per bird for the month. Burton McElroy of Portland, well known as a successful breeder of Buff Orpingtons, has just received fiom Owen Farms, Vineyard' Haven. "Mass., three beautiful birds, a cockerel and two pullets. The cockerel wilt head a pen of carefully selected females and Mcel roy looks for something from this mat ing that will make his exhibit at this year's shows better than ever. Best Broccoli of Oregon Gardens Not Eeady for Market Some broccoli shipped from Roseburg to Portland has been Inferior and dif ficult to move at any price, according to statements recently published by. sev eral Portland newspapers. "The main broccoli crop has not be gun to head and what is being cut now is from one single strain which has not. been widely 'planted and much of which is, producing small heads," says Professor Bouquet of .the department of vegetable gardening a$ O. A. C. in de fense of this producing section. "It will be at least two and one half or three weeks before the best broccoli Is fairly under way, this time depend ing entirely on future weather conditions." Poultry Raising Is Found Profitable Fair, to Have Cattle Barn Centralis.- Wash.. Feb. 19. George It. Walker, 'secretary of the Southwest Washington, fair, bas called for bids for the erection of a new cattle' barn, at the fair ' grounds. v K. J. McClanahan, Who has been en gaged in the manufacture of incubators in Eugene for the last 13 years, and prior to tnai time a sale agent for a large Eastern Incubator company, states that poultry breeding is as profitable as anything raised on a farm, consider ing- the money invested. , McClanahan uses; Oregon cedar en tirely in the manufacture of hia incuba tors.' 4When It became apparent that all industries -must pass through the rccon struction era with some losses, he took his losses at once and gave purchasers the benefit of low price, instead of in creasing them, although the price of his materials , had , Increased.

Douglas County Fruit Inspector Armstrong is devoting much time to an inspection of the orchards in thir section with a view of destroying diseased trees. In some instances, Armstrong said, whole or chards have been found In such condi tion that it is necessary to cut all trees down and burn them. These or chards are mainly old trees which have ceased heavy bearing. In some cases where the trees are not in bad condi tion Armstrong sprays and disinfects the orchar-Js: He is authorized to use his own judgment in every case, and if the owner refuses to pay for the work done the county supplies the funds, aft erward charging the amount to the property, to be paid as taxes. . "I want it clearly understood, said Armstrong, "that this does not apply to the country people alone. There are many residents of Roseburg who havo fruit trees in their yards that should be destroyed, as fhey are diseased so hopelessly ' that they cannot be cured. Pasco Has Branch of Kennewick-Richland Marketing Society Pasco, Wash., Feb. 19. A meeting of farmers of this section was held In Pasco this week, the result of which was the forming of a Pasco branch of the - Kennewick-Richland Marketing as sociation. The purpose of the farmers in joining this association is to facili tated marketing methods for disposing Of fruits, large and small, more espe cially the earl tr . fruit, as well as the early vegetables. Because of the comparatively small number of farmers on this side of the river, it was thought advisable to af filiate with the Kennewick-Richland as sociation rather than attempt to organ ize an independent association. It is believed that by marketing their crops through the Kennewick-Richland association the farmers will be able to get better prices for their produce than by individual marketing. A director for the association will be elected to the board from Pasco, so the farmers of this section may have an equal opportunity to have a voice in the business management of the con cern, i Sewer Project to Offer Employment To Needy Workers Work ' on the new Mount Scott and Arleta district newer, estimated to cost approximately $400,000, ; will be- started. by the middle of March, supplying erfir ployment for a large body of men, , As sis tan t Commissioner Johnson of the department of public works has ad vised the chairman of the unemploy ment commission of the American Le gion. " Plans and specifications for the mam moth sew contract will be presented to the city council , at its regular meet ing next week, when the advertising for bids will be authorized by the council. The bids will be opened - three weeks thereafter, and it is expected that work will start Immediately thereafter. The sewer will run from Stxty-sixth to Ninety-sixth Btreet and Foster road, and from Ninety-second street to John son creek. The sewer will provide drainage only until the Johnson creek sewer is constructed, probably within two years, and .until the other sewer is constructed there, will be no 'connections- for sanitary purposes made with th Mount Scott and Arleta sewer, John son said. The contract will be let on the prog ress payment plan, as provided in a recent ordinance, which means that 80 per cent.-ef the contract price will be paid to the contractor on each - section of the sewer as completed. By this means the city ccuncil expects to save the property-owners the amount of in terest which has heretofore been added by contractors who were compelled to borrow from the banks until eacn con tract was completed and paid. Three New County Agents Named by . Extension Director Oregon Agricultural College, Corval- lis, Feb. 19. Three new county agents have been appointed in Oregon, accord ing to an announcement by Paul V. Maris, director of extension at the col lege. The new field men are William B Tucker, for Crook county ; E. W. Mc- Mindes. for Clatsop, and F. C. Holi baugh, for Jackson county. The addition of Crook to the list of counties now having agricultural agents makes a total of 27 out of 36 counties in the state. Tucker, the new agent, is a graduate of the University of Illinois. For the last three years' he has been a successful county agent in Ada county. Idaho, ranking as one of the 'three best in the state. McMindes graduated from O. A. C. in 1918 with a bachelor of sci ence degree in agriculture. He has been farming in Oregon since 1909. Holi baugh has farmed in Pennsylvania, raised cattle in Montana and Eastern Oregon, and for the last eight years has operated his own farm In the Rogue River valley. He was formerly assist ant superintendent of the Eastern Ore gon branch station. NEW SUBSTANCE IS NAMED ULTRACLAY One of the most important dis coveries in .the science , of . soils has been made by experts of the United States department of.' agriculture within the last year in the separa tion of a hitherto unknown substance which, has been designated as ultra clay, a gelatinelike substance, 'very sticky and ; plastic .when wet and having in the dry state the 'general appearance of resin. rj . J? It appears to be a silicate of alumina. usually ; with . some Iron and traces of potassium, sodium, magnesium, and cal cium, whether combined or merely ab sorbed being a point not yet determined. This ultraclay is believed to be the principal factor In making the soil plas tic, but when added to loose and Inco herent sand in proportions up to 10 per cent, and the ' mixture made into bri quettes and dried it gives to the sandt a crushing strength greater than an equal amount of Portland cement. The bri quettes made With ultra clay, however, fall to pieces when put In water, while those made with Portland cement retain their form. The discovery has an Important bear ing upon the physical properties of soils and is being studied in cooperation wtth the bureau of public roads as a guide in adjusting the structure of--concrete and other pavements to the texture of the soil on which they are built. Enormous losses are caused annually because large-quantities of fruits and vegetables are frozen In transit. Last winter shippers of apples In three states Oregon; Washington and Idaho filed claims aeaJnst railroads amounting to over 83,000,000 to cover losses from f reel ing. ' ' " . t ' "To assist in . reducing such losses the bureau of markets has distributed as widely .- as possible information relative to the proper methods of loading and heating both refrigerator and . ordinary box cars. Recently, as a result of In vestigations, the bureau has practically completed the design for heating equip ment for use in : connection with the United States standard refrigerator car. the specifications for which were drawn up in this bureau. Experiments ' have shown that a refrigerator car. equipped with this heating system, will protect fruits and -vegetables from freezing, even at ; a temperature of 40 degrees below zero. Service tests, to adapt this heating system to practical every-day conditions, will be carried on thla winter. S ?

HOUSEWIVES FIND PRUNES USEFUL 0ne of the greatest benefits re ceived from prune week ia the fact that thousands of housekeepers have discovered that prune bread, prune Leake, prune muffins and such, are really finer than the same-made with raisins. Bakeries In Salem alone are making 500 loaves of prune bread daily and now attention Is being given to prune angel cake, prune layer cake, prune coffee cake and even to prune ice cream. Salem bakeries are using a proportion of 14 pounds of prunes to" 100 loaves of the one-pound sise. This figures the use of about "0 pounds of prunes alone for bread. A pitting machine -capable of pitting thouxands of prunes dally will soon be In 'operation at' Salem. At present the pitting is done by hand. With the prune taking the place of raisins in . the leading hukerkvi of tho slate. It is estimated that within a few months thousands of pounds of prunes will be used weekly in the state in the making of prune bread and cakes. This will Bolve to some extent the prob lem of the smaller sizes of prunes. The eastern markets are calling for tho larger sizes, not only in prunes, but In -all Oregon fruits.
