MIRHIE URGES HUE MB Dr. James Wlthycombe. director of the Oregon experiment station, has Just given eastern Oregon farmers some excellent rtatistics on hog rais ing and urges them to give more at tention to hogs. Dr. Wlthycombe says of the subject: There is perhaps no branch of an imal husbandry in a grain growing section that will give quicker, surer, or larger returns than will hogs. Despite this fact, Oregon for a number of years has utterly failed to produce sufficient pork products to supply the home demand. It Is cer tainly a peculiar anomaly that train loads of Nebraska fed hogs are brought past one of the best hog pro ducing sections of the cntinent. There is not an agricultural district in the whole nation that can surpass the wheat farms of the Columbia river basin for the economical pro duction of a high class bacon hog. These hogs can be grown and finish ed for the market on field peas, barley and wheat. It has been demonstrated by farmers in this section that hogs can be profitably grown on wheat pasture during the summer and fin isher on crushed wheat In the fall. Experimental feeding has shown that three and one-half pounds of wheat will produce a gain of one pound of live weight In a hog fatten- The pigs should be farrowed early In the spring and permitted to run with their dams on pasture until they are at least two months old. In the meantime they should be taught to eat a small supplemental grain feed. This should be continued until the pig weighs about 50 pounds. After this he will make a satisfactory growth on a good pasture. By fall this pig should weigh 125 pounds, costing J 4 cents per pound. This Includes the cost of the supplemental grain feed and the value of the pas ture. The pig Is then finished for the market, and during this process con sumes 350 pounds of wheat and makes an additional 100 pounds gain. The cost of growing the pig is $4.37. but after consuming 350 pounds of wheat he weighs 225 pounds worth 5 i cents per pound, or rpprcsents a value of J12.37. thus returning to the grower for his wheat fS nr t.Z" per bushel. Equally giod results enn be se cured from peas. The hogs can har vest these themselves. It Is believed that a quarter section of good wheat land sown to peas would fatten 250 hogs worth $3000, and at the same time carry over the breeding stock. when the soil refuses to make returns for the work put upon It, and the farmer who recognizes the fact that Irrigation Is his salvation, is wise in advance of his day, and his example will be followed by others until the anxious desire for rain will be but a memory, a frightful nightmare of the. past. Cured Ilay Fever and Summer Cold. A. S. Neubnum. Rntesvllln. TniUnnn ed for bacon. For a longer period of wrltes: ..jt year x 8uffered for three fattening so as to secure lard type of hojf, more grain will be required. The heavier larded hogs will re quire about 450 pounds of wheat for 100 pounds gain in live weight. This at 5 i cents per pound would bring to the grower 73 cents per bushel for his wheat: The bacon type would take less wheat because the finish ing will be done in shorter time, hence the lews grain consumed per pound gain. Good Return on Wheat. For 100 pound gains in this type of a hog it will require about 350 pounds of wheat. This at 5 hi cents per pound will return to the grower 94 cents per bushel for his wheat. Even better returns for wheat fed than this can be secured. If the young hogs are mainly grown on pasture, such as alfalfa, rape, peas, or winter grains sown In the spring, they can be grown to a fattening stage for 3 Vi cents per pound. All of the crops mentioned can be success fully grown in the typical wheat sec tions of eastern Oregon. months with a summer cold so dis tressing that It Interfered with my business.

Ad- Arlington Country Shows Great vanceniMit. It Is gratifying to note the num ber of farmers in this locality' who are Installing private irrigating, plants for use when nature falls to furnish the necessary amount of moisture, says the Arlington Record. A plant of this kind requires a con siderable' outlay of hard cash, but when In working order the profits derived therefrom are so great that the .original Investment Is insignifi cant. When a farmer owns and con trols not only the plant but the water supply, which Is commonly obtained from a well, he Is absolutely Inde pendent. His crops are sure, the quality of his product Is the best and conse quently the price received Is the highest. Frequently splendid crops of excellent quality are grown In Gil liam county without Irrigation quite as often as In the east and middle west but there are dry seasons here, as In every part of the United States Gem State Shows a Healthy IncTWW of Dairy Stock. Milch cows have Increased 3299 head over the number reported for 190", but reported values have de creased, 39,305 head valued at $711, 075 being reported for 1907 whereas 42.604 head valued at $636,751 have been reported for 1908 from the 23 counties of the state, says the Boise Capital News. The equalized valuation of milch cows as determined by the board last year", resulted in a reduction of the reported valuations for the various counties. Milch cows were assessed last year at an average assessed value of $13 per head by assessors, but the board in equalizing assessed valuations re duced the assessed valuation - per heail to $12, reducing the total valua tion of milch cows In the state for 1907 to $428,420. Milch cows are reported this year at an assessed valuation of approxi mately $15 per head, an increase of $3 per head over the equalized val uatlon of milch cows for last year. 1 L HIGH SCHOOL PROGRESS' HAS RKEX MARKED In 18IH There Were hut l'.lht Four YtNir High School In the.

Pendleton Drug "In 1899 here were only eight four-year high schools In the state and there .were very few of the sec ond and third classes," says State Superintendent Arkerinan In his un nual. report which was made public yesterday afternoon. "No statistics were kept at that time of the high schools. During the past year there were In operation 43 four-year high schools, 15 three-year high schools, 43 two-year high schools and 37 one-year high schools." The school census for the school year 1907-08 showed that there were 160,042 pupils of school age In the state between the ages of four and 20, as against 156,466 two years ago and 132,388 in 1899, and the enroll ment for the past school year was 107,493, as compared to 100,898 two years ago and 85.364 In 1899. The average monthly salary paid male teacher was $65.65, as against $60.02 In 1906 and $42.96 In 1899. For female teachers the average was $50,16 per month as compared to $44.95 two years ago and $34.81 In 189. The amount expended for school purposes during the school year was $3,061,994.04, 1907-08, while that for the school year ending In 1907 was $2,371,750.86, and for 1899 $1,259,125.38. The average monthly salary of teachers in one-room buildings was $49,60, of assistant teachers in school having more than one room, $56.35; of principals of schools having more than one room, $80.87, and the aver, age annual salary for city superin tendents of the first class $1,676.17. "School teachers throughout the state." the report continues, "report that the compulsory educational law passed by the legislature of 1907 has proved a success and that all of its provisions are practicable. Statis tics, which show that the average at tendance per day for the school year of 1907-08 was 17,179 over the pre. vlous year, seem to bear out this re. port. "This large showing may be partly due to a more accurate method of securing the school statistics. The new law requires the teachers to re port to the, county superintendent at the end of each school month, and the superintendent of public instruc tion bases his annual report upon the county superintendents' reports."
