DR. 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.

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.

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,

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.

"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."
