i WillameUccValleY Farmer- Of Visas mmd Yinm Fr awwl Crd-T UUS k M: ; Stock Takes To Pumpkins And Squashes Livestock and poultry like pumpkin and squashes, too. al though they do not require them to be made Into pies, sajs E. D. Jfosmer of Borlnc over In Clack amas county. Their value as feed is another Qvieition, he add. According to analyi they rate about the same as stock beets and arroU. Tor cattle feeding. Henry 1 ad Morrison's "reeds and Feed ng" reports that one ton of Kuashes or pumpkins are equiva rrt to 800 pounds of corn silage pr 133 to 400 pounds of mixed hay. This means that these pro ducts are quite bulky and that animals have difficulty in con suming sufficient quantities to maintain themselves. They should, Mefore. be fed in limited Quan tities as supplements to better feeds. -Feeds and Feeding" also re port! that it would "take 10 tons or over of pumpkins to equal one Ion of grain for pigs. Cooking mimnkini for swine is not bene ficial. There la a common opinion that pumpkin seeds are harmful to stock, but this is not true. Feeding seeds alone, hovrever. Is apt to cause Indigestion on ac eonnt of the hieh fat content." Uin faeda rontiininf yellow Coloring are rich in carotene. Carotene la manufactured Into Vitamin A In the livers of ani mal which consume them. This means that these yellow colored feeds can be substituted, to an extent, for green feeds which are valuable for their vitamin A con sent It la the carotene which gives the natural yellow coloring to butter. Yellow corn is the only grain carrying carotene which Is also found m carrots and in yel low pumpkins and squashes. It Is thrfnr. that Dumokins and squashes have some vitamin food value over and aoove ineir total digestible nutrients. Some Counties To Try New AAA Plans A number of Oregon counties Will use a new plan for signing up to perform conservation prac tices in 1848. This is known as the Kansas plan, where it was first tried out with such success that It la being adopted In other atates. j Heretofore, all farmer who expected to carry out conservation practices were required to file a plan with the county AAA of fice by May 1, listing all the practices in the county handbook, which they expect to perform during the year. In many cases It was difficult to predict by May I whether it would be possible to perform cer tain practices, such as drainage dttch c o n s t r u ction. especially where It was necessary to obtain the use of equipment not owned by the farmer. It is not always possible to foresee by May 1 cir cumstances which later In the year might unexpectedly result In an opportunity to carry out joiM practice In the conservation liandbook. The new plan permits signing up for a practice at any tuna during the year when It appears certain the practice can be performed. In fact, farmers will be asked by the county com mittee not to sign up for a prac tice until they are ready to as- Kre the committee the work will completed. The new plan also will enable the county committee to make conservation payments much sooner as ft will not be necessary to wait until next February to see whether more practices are reported than county allocation will cover. No mora applications to perform conservation practices will be accepted man the fund allotted to the county will pay for. All counties in Oregon which will participate in the new plan have not yet been announced, but it Is understood that the ma- Jority of them will follow this, kfanon and Linn counties are among those which have announc ed their intentions to try out the new plan for this year.

Turkeys on Par With Chickens In State Total Oregon's farm raised poultry products account for about one tenth of the total cash receipts from the sale of all farm pro ducts, with turkeys and turkey eggs now ranking close to chick ens and their eggs in importance, A sharp expansion of the poul try Industry in Oregon occurred from 1943 to 194S, both in num bers produced and in value. This increase in value was due to higher prices as well as to the larger volume. From 1924 to 1942 the number of chickens on farms did not fluctuate greatly. The wartime demand, however, caus ed an upward trend for a few years, but since the war the scar city and high cost of feed and other economic factors have re sulted in a decline, Turkey num bers reached a peak in 194S but have since dropped sharply. In 1948 the Willamette valley accounted for 39 per cent of the chickens on hand at the begin ning of the year and 70 per cent of the turkeys raised. In that year Lane county led the state in nam ber of chickens, while Marion county led in number of turkeys raised. Other leading: poultry counties in western Oregon are Clackamas, Marion, Washington, Linn and Douglas' In chickens, and Clack amas, Lane, Yamhill. Linn and Douglas In turkeys. In eastern Oregon, Malheur, Umatilla and Klamath led In chickens, and De schutes and Umatilla in turkeys. Washington county is found to produce the greatest number of ducks, while Linn county leads in geese production.
