Competition ; Judging
Is Done on Farm
in
Oa the farm, is the place to
Judge 'a supervised practice pro
gram of Smith-Hughes , agricul
ture students who will exhibit at
the state fair, believes Earl R.
Cooler, state supervisor of agri
cultural , education, who Is spon
soring Future Farmer project
contest at the state fair this year.
The fair exhibit will show the
' boys' project accomplishments.
For the past month agricultur
al specialists from Oregon State
college and the state board for
-vocational education have visited
the farm projects at the homes of
20 boys who have been previous
ly selected as having the -best
farm projects in 20 Smith-Hughes
departments. The J u d g i n g of
these projects. Is based upon the
boys' home projectopportunities,
their Interests and responsibili
ties, and the proven practices car
ried out by the boys with their
project programs.
The judges have bad the oppor-'
tunity when visiting the "farms to
observe the ' boys management
practices that had to do with the
the' financial success oi the boys'
projects. By this system of judg
ing, awards at the state fair In
the Future Farmers project con
test will be made according to the
actual merits of the! boys' home
project work, believes Mr. Cooley.
Efficiency Contest -
The dairy and poultry feed cost
contest will again be conducted,
at the Oregon state fair by the
Future Farmers. The dairy cow
that can manufacture butterfat
the cheapest, and the pen of 12
hens that can produce a doren
standard eggs at the lowest feed
cost during a seven-day test is the
object of the dairy and . poultry-!
contests. Last year there was a
variation of 20 cents in the co3t
of production between the high
and low producing cows and 24
cents variation In the production
cost of a dozen eggs. r
The cost of producing -butter-fat
will be determined by the
amount and 'value of thefee4J
consumed by each cow in propor
tion to the size and the amount
of butterfat produced daily. In or
der not to underfeed a cow, a
- minimum .amount of feed nutri
ents will be charged against the
cow for maintenance' and produc
tion. !
In the poultry contest the same
kind of feed will be fed each pen.
The weight of the mash consumed
by each, pen will be weighed
daily, while the amount of scratch
feed will be the same for all pens.
The lowest feed cost per dozen
- standard eggs will be the object
of the poultry contest during the
seven-day ' test. I
Marvin Williams, Amity, with
a Jersey cow weighing 810
pounds, won the sweepstake prize
in the dairy contest. It cost him
11 cents a pound to produce 13
. pounds of butterfat during the
sevedVday test.. Maurice Benson,
Silverton, won the poultry con-
' test by producing a dozen stand
ard eggs for 10 cents.

Oregon Products
Distributed Far
Where do all the thousands of
carlots of fruits and vegetables
which are shipped from Oregon
producing points go to anyway?
This question is partly answered
in extension circular No. 301 just
issued through the O.S.C. agri
cultural extension economist's
office which shows the carlot un
load of Oregon fruits and veg
etbles in 66 markets for the 10
year period, 1925-1935.
Oregon apples during the per
iod, for example, were shipped to
63 points all the way from San
Antonia, Tex., to St. Paul, Minn.,
and from Portland, Ore., to Port
land, Me. New York was by far
the largest average user of Ore
gon apples while next in line were
Portland, Ore... San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Chicago and Kansas City,
Mo.
Information In the circular was
compiled from U.S.D.A. reports by
O.S.C. students receiving N.Y.A.
assistance working under the di
rection of Li. R. Breithaapt, ex
tension economist.

- The Arabians over many cen
turies : have been known as the
hardiest of . horses. They were

that swept over Asia and into Eu
rope bearing the sword and the
Koran, sweeping all before them.
The Kellogg Arabians have been
specially trained by c a p a b 1 e
handlers and crowds assemble at
the institute every Sunday after
noon to see the horses go through
their acts.

i The Kellogg horses , are often
sought by Hollywood movie exec
utives when they need an excep
tional horse to appear in pic
tures. Jaadan, magnificient gray
stallion i used by Rudolph Valen
tino in his last picture, "The Son
of the Sheik," was a Kellogg Ara

educated horses perform unusual
tricks. Rossika and Rossidin, two
exceptionally beautiful horses,

the most beautiful maneouvers
ever performed by horses, will
