To the Farmer The Alfalfa Meal Mill at Echo, Oregon is today paying a minimum price of $6 a ton for alfalfa in stack, the company paying for hauling. This year the alfalfa yield one quarter of a mile from our project netted 8 tons to the acre, the highest yield on the same land be ing 10 tons. The cost for producing varies from 1.25 to 1.50 per ton, giving a net in come per acre on these figures of 36 to 38. These facts can be readily verified.

This, of course, has en possible only by the Intro duction of new veneer-making ma chinery. Tlie use of veneer Is generally re garded as exemplifying the scarcity of the finer woo, Is and typifying the complete utilization of various kinds of woods, yet, from one of the sched ules of the National Conservation cmnmi-s oii It Is evident that the commission expects to discover great waste even In veneer manufacture. Though the word veneer carries many meanings, from a glaze ap jdled to pottery to the "polish" of a man of the world. It Is most com monly employed as the name fur the thin slices of wood now extensively used in the manufacture of all sorts of articles of Use. such as wood plates, baskets, and the exterior finish of fur niture and wood work. The manu facture of Vetleer ill the last few years has advanced by leaps and bounds. The best veneer Is sawed, but a gieat deal is sliced and still more Is "rotary cut." Jty the last named process logs of the desired wood arei steamed until tiny are soft and then! fixed in a lathe-like machine. In I which tiny are turned against a w ooi'l knife. As the log rotates against the knife. Veneer of the desired thickness Is peeled off In a continuous slice, as If you should pare an apple, going deeper and deeper at each complete turn, until nothing Is left but the core. The center of the log left after the veneer Is cut is also called a "core." The woods principally used for making vener are rod gum, maple and yellow poplar, which together yield more than half of the total product. the week.
