DAILY EAST OREGONIAN, PENDLETON, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST t6, 190R. EIGHT PAGES. SOME GOOD HINTS FMI TIE HI PACK SIX. THREE MAGAZINES FREE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY. The Poultry Yard. A broiler should have a full breast, broad back and plump body. The Ideal roasting fowl has small bones and sinews, plump breasts, meaty thighs and short legs and neck. Quality brings a better price In market than weight. "Barbecues" hare taken a back eat since the Introduction of the broiler. Kaffir corn Is a good wheat substl tnte for poultry feeding. A quart of soft feed Is about the proper allowance for a dosen fowls. One ounce of green bone for each hen twice a week Is the proper feed ing. One handful of whole grain for each fowl in the pen at night Is about the right amount. Stir Ripening Cream. It Is very essential In cream ripen ing to agitate the cream frequently to Insure uniform ripening. When cream remains undisturbed for some time the fat rises In the same way that it does In milk, though in a less marked degree. The result Is that the upper layers are richer than the lower and will sour less rapidly, since the action of the lactic add germs Is greater In thin than in rich cream, This uneven ripening leads to a poor boiled cream. Instead of being smooth and glossy, it will appear coarse and curdy when poured from a dipper. The importance of stir ring frequently during ripening should not be underestimated. Tankage for Pigs. One of the good things about tank age Is that It Is a' bone maker as well as a flesh former, says J. P. Fletcher in Kimball's Dairy Farmer. It is ex tremely good for the digestion, al- ways keeping the bowels In splendid condition and the appetite sharp. It sometimes takes the animals several days to become used to the peculiar taste and smell of it, but after that all hogs relish it. It should be fed young pigs mixed in the slop, but for fat tening hogs It can be fed dry in the trough or with the soaked corn. Both hogs and pigs are always allowed to nm In the pasture when being fattened. Farm Notes. The new machine must be watched closely and oiled thoroughly. It does not pay to keep a runt of any kind on the farm. Get rid of them. The well fenced farm will make every field available for hogs or sheep. Tou are hardly a good farmer Is the weeds get more plant food than the crops. " Intensive farming on a small scale Is always safer than farming on a large scale. There is but one way to distribute nitrate of soda as a top dressing on wheat, and that Is by hand, broadcast Dairy Note In order to induce cows to consume food freely It Is very necessary that they should have palatable foods. The more thoroughly the milk Is cooled the finer will be the butter and the longer it will keep. A good milk cow always makes poor beef, and a good cow seldom gives enough milk to pay for her keep. The proper amount of food Is the greatest quantity the cow will con sume and properly digest and ass!mlj late. better and quicker work than one two-thirds full. The time will be shorter, the butter will come better, and the buttermilk will show less butter fat when the churn Is not over loaded. Economy of Silage, The farmer must rely more upon his own efforts to produce and pre serve his own farm those foods that will supply the needs of his dairy herd. Commercial foodstuffs have been rapidly advancing in price, and many are now too expensive for the dairy feeder to consider when com piling his rations. Silage will help take their places, and it is the most economical feed on the farm. Curing Seed Corn. The man who merely desires to cure sufficient seed for the planting of 30 or 40 acres finds no difficulty in securing some room In the house which Is sufficiently ventilated and which can be heated so as to cure the corn. The good seed ears can be tied together by means of binder twine and strung on wires. Do not use a laundry room or any room that is not perfectly dry. Pry Feed for Hogs. Tests at the Indiana experiment sta tion Indicate that pigs make better gains when their grain Is fed dry than they do when It Is mixed with wate. This would suggest that those who take the trouble to mix grain with wa. ter before feeding waste their time and, to a slight extent, the food value of the grain. Marketing Poultry. It Is a good rule to market all stock as soon as they can be got ready. Poultry Is no exception to the rule. Chickens, ducks, turkeys and geese should be rapidly fattened and quick-1 ly sold. Water for Cows. Cows should have water where they can get It when they want It. This Is much better than watering at stated Intervals. Xo animal that has water always accessible will drink too much. THE NEW TOWN OF RANGE. Proper Amount to Churn. The extra quart of cream over and above the proper amount In the churn can easily choke the machine sufficiently to string out the work to a wearisome length. Two quick, easy churning are better than one long one. A churn half full will do OVERTAXED. Hundreds of Pendleton Readers Know What Vt Means. The kidneys are overtaxed; Have too much to do. They tell about It in many aches and pains Backache, sldeache, headache, Early symptoms of kidney Ills. Urinary troubles, diabetes, Brlght's disease follow. Mrs. J. T. Galloway, living on C St., Elgin, Ore., says: "Judging from the benefit I derived from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills I con only speak of them as being a reliable remedy for the kidneys. I used them princi pally for a severe pain across my back, which had annoyed me for some time. The results that followed the use f.f the first box were so benefi cial that I continued taking them and since that time my back has given me but little trouble I cheerfully recommend Doan's Kidney Pills For sale by all dealers.

Have you heard of the town of Range?" asks the Long Creek Ran ger. It Is situated in Grant county, Oregon, between the Middle fork and the North fork of the John Day river on Granite creek. It is not an incorporated town as yet, but bids fair to be a town of the same rank as the majority of the inland empire towns. 0 At present It consists of a general store with a distributing point for the United States mall for the Gran ite creek neighborhood. But ample assurance Is given to the people of Range that, they will have a regular ly established postofice alU their own as soon as Uncle Sam can get around to It Range Is situated in a very produc tive part of northern Grant and is surrounded by small ranches and timber lands and national forests. The lower land along the branches of the John Day are good for a wide va riety of crops while the clearings above 'produce wheat and liay of high order. Colorado Knights Templar.
