grain. For fattening pigs the best
proportion is four pounds of pota
toes to one pound of grain. For
the breeding herd a higher pro
portion of potatoes may be used;
that is, about six pounds potatoes
to one .pound of grain. .Wean
ling pigs or, fattening pigs should
be fed all they will consume, but
for the breeding herd only enough
should be used to keep them , in
good breeding condition." f
: Barley, corn or wheat are best
suited to feed . with potatoes for
fattening pigs, while oats are suit
able for the breeding herd, j Bulky
feed such as bran, mill run, etc.,
should not be fed with potatoes.
Skim milk or butter milk can be
fed with potatoes, but such feeds
I replace the potatoes of the ration
rather than the grain.
The grain should be mixed with
the potatoes before' being fed to
eliminate the chance of some pigs
getting all -grain and others all
potatoes'. Care should be taken
that the potatoes are not allowed
to sour before feeding.

Why .Not More Hogs?
Editor Statesman: -
While in: Iowa a .little over a
year ago, an experienced raiser of
hogs asked these .questions: .
, : "Can you grow clover success

I answered that the Salem dis
trict is one of the leaders in: the
United States in growing clover.

"What about your climate?"

wind from driving the rain in,

"Roiln nood," Reginald DeKoveng masterpiece and acclaimed by
the music-loving public as the greatest comic opera ever written. Is
annouricied as the musical feature of this season's Chautauqua.! It is a
full, well sung; cleverly acted and costumed production under that vet
eran conductor. May Valentine. .Only the best j talent is employed by
Miss Vailentine and her record in the operatic production' field assures
a finished production of this ever popular and well-loved opera. :.
Thei public has thrilled over the romance? of the' lovable and gallant
robber ebief and beautiful Maid Marian in print and on the screen. To
see these characters Impersonated by' clever ictors ; to be transported
to the greens of Sherwood forest; to laugh at old Friar Tuck and the
Sheriff of Nottingham all accompanied by DeKoven's musical Inter
pretations, will be like having a dream come true. "O Promise Me"
to' the- soulfuT sraliis" of which so many couples have plighted troth ;
"Brownj October. Ale" .with its, musing' chorus, and tthe 6tirring,tAr
mourer's Song," sung to the rhythmic accompaniment of anvil beats in
front of a flaming forge will be outstanding solos in a production that
is perfectly balanced. A splendid orchestra is a feature of the produc
tion. '
"What about growing - green
feed?'
Some! form of green feed can be
available nearly every month in
the year.
"Then why don't your -section
raise more hogs?"
I neVer ; did get that question
answered entirely satisfactorily.
That very day his hogs were
out "hogging off" a field of corn
in zero weather, and - they were
making1 money for him. :
He had tried raising a few fall
litters, tbut , the cold, weather had
retarded the growth of the pigs
(in spite' of a warm-, hog house)
so they; were of little, value. :
As a- rule he only raised one
litter per year from each sow, and
they were farrowed in March.
As I saw' It, his only advantage
was in j the , corn feed that could
be cribbed, in quantities and fed
at any, time of the year. ,
- On the 6ther ban, our advan
tages were many, yet the: fact re
maiued that he raised perhaps 350
hog per year, while many ef our
farmers do not raise hqgs en6vgh
to supply even their owivable. 1 f

races.
the
Yn
Personally I have never been en
tirely "sold" to the idea of hog
raising on a large scale In western
Oregon, yet I do believe that many
more hogs could be raised at a
profit, than are now. raised. The
first requisite . is cheap feed. It
the hog is to be raised on mill
feed purchased at a long price
after perhaps 'several have had a
profit front handling It, then it is
very questionable if It could even
be made to break even, but if
sufficient hogs are raised to util
ize, the cheap feed available, then
a good profit can be' realized.
On the j small places, perhaps
not more than one brood sow, or
it might . be more profitable to
occasionally . buy a feeder pig. or
so to utilize the otherwse waste
feed at a prof t ; , on the larger
places an increasing number could
be raised. I do not believe the
Salem district Is destined to ever
be PRIMARILY a hog - growing
district, yet I do. believe that a.
much larger number of ; hogs than
are now raised could be raised
at a profit. . .. ..

Mr. Regan has asked Paul V.

dairying at the station, to help
locate stock growers with dairy
stock for sale. The work has been

good grade Jerseys and Ayrshlres.
They must be young cows or heif
ers capable of producing 300

in health, good breeders and free
from tuberculosis. Unless from
herds tested under federal or state
supervision, every animal in the
herd must. fe tested .with the
agreement that if 10 per cent ; or
