THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, V PORTLAND, OREGON i Pacific Coast' New Home of Pure Bred Guernseys Imported by F, S. Peei SATURDAY, APRIL 2. 1921. PEER SALE OF GUERNSEYS TO BE BIG EVENT An event in wliich Guernsey breeders allover the Pacific coast and Rocky- mountain country are keenjly interested, arid whiclt ii also ox importance to the entire livestock ' industry of the West, is the PeerTsale of imported Guernsey which is to be held at the Pacific International Livestock Exposition at North Port land on April 26. " ; -Local livestock authorities, among "these being General Manager O. M Plummer-; of the: Pacific International, regard the transference of this notable spring -sal to Portland from, the. At lantic coast as an epoch in Uie develop ment of thrf' industry. . , BEST GUE'b.NSEVS COMING The annual Peer sale lias been for many years an event of premier inter est to Guernsey breeders nationally, and the fact that it was voluntarily moved to the Pacific coast this year, after an unbroken Series of 18 years at the Osceola farms, Cranford, N. J., is in terpreted as a moHt significant recog nition by F. S. Peer, the vetgwn im porter and nationally recognized author ity, "of what the .Ji'ture holds lor the .livestock. Industry in the extreme Vest. ' In a letter to Cfeneral llanager O. 3,1 Plummer, Gordan Hall, manager for Peer, states that Peer 'recently expressed the opinion that the 50 Guernseys which "will be sent to Portland for the sale will comprise' the best assemblage of entries that he has ever been able to offer in his 18 years of annual sales. t JiOT rOtt. 1'B.OHT Tlie 50 animals to be offered were se lected from an Importation Of 120 which arrived in New York direct from Guern sey .island, last month. They will be shipped ,to Portland in time for several days' rest and conditioning before the date of the sale. - The sale will- be under the auspices of the Oregon Guernsey Breeders' asso- ciatloni, which urges all breeders w-ho are ambitious to secure good foundation stock or to build up their present Guernsey- herds, to take advantage of the op portunity offered. . "This sale is not primarily a money making affair," said one of the associa tion officials. '"It will be heid chiefly for the purpose of supplying the grow- in? demand for high class breeding StOCk. '.'Peer, who Imported the animals, has for many years made a hobby of pro moting the pure bred livestock Indus try, and In transferring his annual sale to the Pacific coast he is directing his efforts where they will get'the best and most 'satisfactory results. ALL CCAKA5TEED - "The state association Is, of course, dedicated to the purpose of promoting the development of the "breed, and the monetary returns of the sale -to- both Peer and the association, are a second ary consideration. Breeders who- come i to ThealwrtUJbe given, the .opportunity ' io secure the very best - at very Teason ' able prices. The management of the sale Wlir not encourage keenly competi tive bidding by wealthy breeders who already have ' large Jiigh class herds. .They want these fine Guernseys to go to those who are building up their present herds or are just-founding herds." !," A11 the animals listed for the sale are guaranteed ; by the . Oregon Guernsey Breeders' association to be free from disease and right, in every other way. The selection consists of lccrws, fresh or calving during the summer; 15, two yearSid heifers with calf: 25 yearling heifers recently bred or ready -for breed . ing. and a ' two-year-old '"Valentine" bull. , , ' I. An indication or the class of the ani jnals' offered is giyen in the fact that among them are daughters or grand daughters of such sires as Governor of .the Chene, Clara's Sequel, Sailor Boy, - Honoriu's Sequel,' Duke of Vimiera, Val entine's Secret, Sequel's Slogan, Valen tine's ' Honor of the Passe and other noted Island sires. Josephine County Making Plans for Big Annual Fair Grauta Pass, Or.. April 2. Josephine county is well on the way toward an an nual county fair that promises to . de velop into a Southern Oregon exposition that will be one; of the attractive feat ures of the district. The county fair board recently negotiated the purchase, of 12 acres of land lying'along- the Rogue river -and immediately' adjoining the present , Riverside and Tourists parks, which will be used as a permanent fair grounds. The tract is admirably located for the purpose,, haying a delightful river frontage!" . As an adjunct- of The fair proposition, an auditorium building is to be erected upon the property adjoining the Tourist park', this to be . the main exposition building for the housing of many of the exhibits of the fair. This building will also be available at other times during the year for community use for conven tions,, etc i Walnut Growing May Become a Profitable Industry in Oregon ' Walnuts may become one of the most profitable crops grown in the Northwest, and have been found satisfactory for planting on logged off lands. Luther Burbank spent a great deaf of time de veloping a yarlety of black walnut that - would grow in the coast regions, on such : land. ' - In 240 months, a tree which he had de veloped by crossing varieties, made a growth of S feet fn height, with a spread of limbs of 66 feet, and over three feet In' diameter. 12 feet above ground. The. timber in this tree was worth 1200. In quality, it was declared to be super ior to the natural walnut of the East. 'There are well developed orchards in Oregon and Western Washington which pay; very profitable return, the soil and climatic conditions being suitable for the raising of this tree.

CosbT. Extension Ponltnr Specialist. Gives Timely Susffeiitions to -Demonstration Farm Owners. 1 j Eggs that arje .sold for hatching purposes , to,, others .should be re corded at the actual price received. The same rule applies fo all baby chicks sold to others. The purchase of baby chicks or eggs for hatching by you from others should be re corded at the actual prices paid un der "miscellaneous expense" on the monthly report. In case you incu bate eggs laid by your own flock, these eggs are recorded as sold in the' usual way but they should also be charged under "miscellaneous ex pense." In reality, you sell eggs to and buy them from yourself. A broody hen will go back to lavine usually In seven to lOXdays if broken up at once and given plenty of feed and water. It will take much loneer to hrine- her back to laying if she be allowed to remain on the nest a few days. It is a good plan to band each hen each time she goes broody. It will give somethine definite for culling school data this sum mer. Cheaply constructed incubators are like cheap suits of clothes less depend able and wear out more quickly. Use a good standard incubator and follow the instructions the manufacturer sends with it In nearly every case the manufac turer advises that the door be kept closed from the time the hatch starts until it is finished. Curiosity and sentiment are not sufficient reasons for violating- the above advice. Darkening the- incubator door durine the hatch prevents chicks from piling uo in front; prevents them falling into the nursery' too early ; " prevents the chicks picking at the excrement, and may fur ther aid in. preventing the toe-pickina- habit, t; Leg weakness . Is not a disease, but a condition caused chiefly by feeding, an improperly balanced ration, causing the chick to gain in body weight faster than in body strength. Long confinement and lack of exercise are contributing factors. Make provision to get chicks on fresh ground a part of each day, starting the practice during the first week. This trou ble is more' noticeable in growing chicks 3 to 6 weeks oldj. Giving "dope" to little chicks will not correct the 'evils -of low vitality parents; improper incubation, improper brooding or overfeeding, i Let us look at the little chick, not as it Is today, but as we expect it to be next fall and what it must be in order to stand up under the strain of high production." It becomes. our prob lem, not the chick's. In case the brooder house was used as a laying house during fall and winter, it is well to be on the lookout for mites, especially so after the brooder stove has been running a few -days. Back to the Land f Movement Seen in Spokane Inquiries Spokane, Wash., April 2. Tendency toward a "back to the land" movement is seen in the scores of inquiries rela tive to making application for farm loans .which are being received at the office of the federal farm loan bank. X. G. ! O'Shea. head of the bank in this district, : which comprises Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, stated that there are now completed in the district 455 branch associations. "For the information of thofe who may wish to obtain such loans." said O'Shea, "I will say that they must apply to their ; district association, and if the investigation which follows is satisfac tory, the loan Is made. There is no county in the district which has not at least one of these associations." if 5 I 4 - SijlStJ v&' 4 1 i?3 GERMANY IS AGAIN E After being out of the prune marf kets of this country for about! four years, Germany is again buying. A. number of Oregon and California packers have Just closed, a deal for the sale of several million pounds of prunes to Germany, England andH Scandinavian countries. About one half of this order will be shipped from Oregon and consignments will begin early in April, gofng through Portland to the continent via the (Pana ma canal. . j EXCHANGE AFFECTS MABKET Due tc the extremely low rate jof ex change, the German mark, which is worth 23.81 cents at par, is now, worth less than one and three quarters cents of American money. . s ; In other words, when, the German wants $1 worth of lour prunes he will pay $15 worth of German marks. About two weeks ago the mark was worth li cents. But during the past few I days exchange has dropped until it is" worth only 1.6 cents of our money. - On account of this low rate of ex change, the Germans have bought only the smallest sizes of prunes, running from 90 to 12Q's. The Oregon Growers' Cooperative as sociation has, already shipped this win ter five carloads of Mistland prunes through Portland, on the Hamburg American steamer Kinderdijk, jwhich sailed from Portland March 18. ! FORMER SALES HEAVY The year before the war, Germany bought 55,000,000 pounds of prunes from this country. Shipments that year were somewhat above the average. . j It was thought by those interested in the' sale of prunes that the announce ment that the I deal had been j closed would have a v favorable effect ion the prune market. 1 But according to R. C. Paulus, sales manager of the Oregon Growers' Cooperative association, there has been but little strengthening of the market j Trade' advices from Nw York state that buyers . are mostly interested in small lots direct from warehouse stocks in New York, although as usual at this time of year there is a stronger consum ing demand.

At meetings of the Union county farm bureau in the Cove and Imbler sections during the past week, several important questions were discussed. At Cove it was decided to immediately begin a surv- with tlie object - Of in creasing the irrigated area from 213'J acres to S000 acres in that section. The project would cost around 1 40,000 and several reservoir sites have been filed on as well as water rights on the Little Minam river. A tunnel will be bored through the mountain to secure this water. Fertilizing in orchards was discussed and results of the past year .were bet forth by H. G. Avery, county agent. In the William Miller orchard, fertilization with nitrate of soda increased the yield 2J1 boxes per tree, the cost being 17.7 ct-nts per tree. The tree rows that were fertilized were compared with the ad jacent rows when the crop was harvest ed and Avery pointed out that the re sult of the fertilizing probably affect-' ed these trees too, making the case for fr-rtilizing much stronger. At the meeting in Imbler J. A. Oas- , c compared results obtained from Washington Hybrid iso. izn wneat anu Korty-fold. The former yielded, over J0 bushels per acre last year, a much greater yield than has ever been secured from Korty-fold. and he. pointed out that the stock objection that No. 128 is not adapted to this climate has- no basis. The crop was raised on irrigated la:id. The Imbler farmers decided to have their dairy cows, tested for tuberculosis. 79 cows being signed up at the meet ing. The tests will be made in several weeks 'when an extension agent again comes to the county .to give tuberculin tests. " . Farmers raisincr alfalfa in the Cove section have found that the Grimm and Ba,tic alfalfa seed grown in the Grande Konae vauey is naraier man me. emo Fhipped in. As' a result the deiyand for this seed has gneatiy increased and it is believed that more seed v.iil be raised this year. Harry G. Avery of Idaho New Agent Of Union County Harry G. Avery, for the past four years a successful county . agent in Jerome, Idaho, has been appointed for a similar position in Union county to suc ceed Paul H. Spillman, who recently resigned aTter . five years' service. Avery is a native of Kansas, and at tended the Kansas State Agricultural college. He came , to Idaho six years ago. Avery has been particularly suc cessful in' farm bureau organization work in Jerome county and also in pure seed and livestock work, i He reported in Union county March 16, and wili have his office in the federal building at La Grande. . r - . ; a ' Valley View Holds Unique Egg Social -ABhland, April 2.

WOODARD, CLARKE & CO. Wood-lark Bsildlsg,' Portland, Or. Poultry 1 NOTES The 9774 hens in the demonstration farm flocks reporting for. February laid a total of 140,096 eggs, or an average of. 14.33 eggs per hen.- The 10 highest record flocks for February had a total of 3293 hens, which laid a total of 55,371 eggs with an average production per hen of 16.81 eggs. ;The highest in dividual flock , record for February was made by 106 Single Combed White Leg horns, owned by Kd. G. Clark of Wash ington county. The flock laid a total of 2386 eggs w ith an average produc tion per nen or zz.i eggs. While It fs well to provide a good dust bath for the chickens it can not be depended upon for louse and mite con trol, say specialists of the United States cepartment of agriculture. It is far better to eradicate the pests completely. The. main difficulty, about depending upon dust baths is that some of the fowls seldom dust themselves, and those which dust freely never completely free themselves of lice. The dust bath should be kept under cover and may consist of fine road dust with coal -ashes added. The condition known as limberneck In chickens is in reality not a disease, but a symptom of several diseases, which are characterized byi paralysis of the muscles of the neck, making it impos sible for the bird to raise its head from the ground. Thia condition is due to the absorption of poisons from the intes tine, which act upon the nervous sys tem and cause paralysis. The best treat ment is to give a full dose of purgative medicine, that is. 50 or 60, grains of Epom salts or three or fourj teaspoons of castor oil for a grown fowl. Often the birds will be cured within 24 hours. In case they are not better within three or four days it is not advisable to keep them. - Trade Board Backs Horse Association Every grain producer and grain, deal er will be interested in the announce ment tluit the Chicago Board of Trade has just appropriated $2?00 to further the work of the Horse Association Of America.

In numerous localities where dif ficulty is often encountered in secur ing satisfactory stands of clover by sowing on fall wheat in the early spring, it has been found highly- ad visable and advantageous to harrow the wheat with a spike-tooth har row when the clover . is seeded thereon. In thus harrowing the wheat, the most certain ; of the several ways of ; doing so is to harrow the wheat immediately in advance of the seeding and then re harrow to establish the clover seed, thus insuring a deep covering of the clover seed and a consequential better establish ment of the plants. The harrowing, likewise, will prove especially beneficial In the event of any lack of rainfall dur ing the growing season and-will not prove at all, harmf ul ; to tlfe wheat plants. ; ! ; When the clover is being put In Vith a harrow it is highly, important to wait until the soil is in the ideaVCondition to harrow. Taking the soil conditions into account, however, the seeding should be done at the earliest possible moment, thus enabling the seedling to make a rapid continuous and favorable growth. and also getting the seed in and estab lished before the wheat gets so high, as to interfere with the seedling oper ation. ' In harrowing in the seed the harrow should be so Bet as to cover the clover seed to the deDth of about one inch. The greatest objection to this method of seeding the clover is that the- work of so doing' must, perforce, be per formed at the very time that the pre- paring of the soil for other spring crops is calling most urgently. ". Taking Into account, however, the fact that- the clover is of such value aa a soil im prover, together swith its importance as a - hay and seed crop, : this means of harrowing in the clover seed and thus insuring a successful stand will be found to be of the utmost value where ' the usual methods of seeding fail or prove only partially successful.
