Beef Cow Age Big
Factor in Weight
Of Weaned Calves
Oregon State College Eight-year-old
Hereford range cows
weaned heaviest calves In com
parison with cows of other ages,
Dr. Ralph Bogart, O.S.C. experi
ment station staff member, has
announced as a result of tests car
ried on over a six-year period at
the Squaw Butte-Harney branch
range experiment station near
Burns.
Collaborating in the study were
W. A. Sawyer, superintendent,
Squaw Butte station, and Moham
ad M. Oloufa,' O.S.C. graduate
student.
Learning Told
Dr. Bogart learned that two-year-old
heifers with their first
calves weaned the lightest calves
of any age group, 272 pounds. An
arbitrary 32-week weaning time
used for all animals Included in
the study. Weaning weights
crew progressively heavier with
age of the cow until the eighth
year ealf was weaned. Average
welgnt or weaners irom eigni-year-old
cows was 355 pounds,
From then on, weaning weights
gradually tapered of as the cow
aged.
. Heaviest calves at weaning time
will most likely go on to be the
heaviest market animals in any
given length of time, Dr Bogart
points out.
Heredity Ininortant
Although milk supply of the
mother cow is the most impor
tant consideration in" calf wean
ine weisht, heredity and environ
ment are also Important The
George Webb Hereford ranch,
Mayville, is cooperating with the
college in a bull efficiency study.
Last year, Webb learned that two
registered Hereford bulls sired
calves that differed approximate
ly one-half pound per day in
weight gained.
By the time cows In the Squaw
-vButte test were four-year-olds,
, they weaned calves that were but
to be expected later.
Larger cows weaned heavier
calves, Dr. Bogart states. Cows
weighing 1000 pounds, for exam
ple, weaned calves weighing an
average of 33 pounds more than
those produced by 900 pound
cows. It appears then, according
to Dr. Bogart, that range beef pro
ducers must keep large cows in
order to produce heavy weaners.
Cows from 2 to 14 years of age
were included in the study.
Freight Record.
Set by Air Line
An all timo air 'freight record
for any month in United Air Lines
history was set In March when the
airline flew an estimated 2,200,000
ton miles, it was announced today
by M. P. Bicklcy, manager of air
cargo sales. Daily average for the
month was more than 71,000 air
freight ton miles, topping even
previous record volume set during
last Christmas holidays.
Total poundage shipped from
the Bend-Redmond station
amounted to 2,376, an Increase of
60 per cent over the correspond'
Ing month Inst year.

Washington Scene
By Harmon W. Nichols
(United PretM Staff Currnspondvnt)
Washington, April 4 iin The
man in the chocolate-colored suit
fingered the starched handker
chief in his breast pocket and said
he felt a little like Mark Twain.
"I'm a lobbyist and I'm proud
of it," said George W. Morgan,
president of the Association of
American ship owners. "I've got
a job to do here for the ship peo
ple and I'm trying to do it. The
tact that my K-year-oia aaugnter
has trouble explaining what her
old man does is beside the point."
More about that and Mark
Twain later.
Morgan, a pleasant, black-hair
ed fellow, is a lawyer. As a lob
byist, he has a lew tricks up his
sleeve, lie goes tnrougn tne
routine of filing briefs with com
mittees and appearing before
them if asked. Then Tie yanks
out his ace. He goes to his op
position and says, "Look, chum,
let's get together on this thing
and go before the committee and
put our cards on the table.
"It works, a lot of times, too,'
said . Morgan, "and when the
other side shows a hand, I know
where they stand and well, I go
on from there."
He dug out an elaborate flic on
lobbyists to make another point.
in the current file, we have every
thing from the American Ceme
tery association, to pluggcrs fdr
olco, radio, the associated third
class mall users and tavern own
ers, to people who are interested
in preventing barber's itch and
putting expectant fathers pn a
pedestal.
"But," said Morgan, " the late
speaker of the house, Joseph CI.
Cannon, had the right Idea. Back
In 1913, ho said:
" 'The Insidious lobby is tho op
position to your patriculur legis
lative ox, which Is being gored.
! The mun who Is supporting your
j bill or opposing the bills you .op
pose is a public spirited citizen
i performing his part in a govern
ment ot the people, no matter how
ho goes about It; but the fellow
who is against you in legislation
Is ulways a lobbyist and pin t of
the insidious lobby that infests
the capital'."
Then Morgan, who thinks lob
byists are people and do a lot
mure than go around pitching
cocktail parties and trying to play
Dale Carnegie, brought up one
about Murk Twain.
During the days of the late Un
cle Joe Cannon, It seems. Twain
came to Washington to plug for
a new copyright law.
"Mr. Twain," said Morgan, "ad
mitted he was lobbying and that
he had a selfish Interest,"
Mr. T. asked Cannon, as a fa

Man Discovered
In Gas Filled Car
State officers report that Ar
thur E. Wilson, 47, route 2, box
U2, Bend, narrowly escaped death
irom asphyxiation Saturday ait-
ernoon In a blanket-wrapped cab
of an old automobile on the Des
chutes river just north of Bend
The pickup, with a hose leading
irom tne exnausc into tne oiar.K-
eted cab, was noticed by two Bend
girls. Charlcne Larson and Helen
Mirich, who had visited the Old
Orchard and were watching wa
terfowl on the river. They hur
ried back to town and notified
Glenn Ray, at the state police of
fice.
Officer Ray found Wilson in
the cab, his head over the hose,
Tiic engine of the old car was
running and the radiator was
boiling. Wilson, near. death, was
given first aid by a doctor and
taken to the fat. Charles hospital
Officer Ray found that the cab
of the ancient pickup had been
sealed to some extent. The entire
top of the cab was missing and
the windows out, but apparently
an attempt had been made to seal
the compartment. A blanket and
a rug had been spread over the
top ot the car and draped across
the windows.
Investigating officers listed the
case as attempted suicide. The
investigation Saturday afternoon
was made at a.-io p.m.
the house, to make a speech. It
was against the rules. But, for
old friendships sake, Cannon of
fered the humorist the private of
fice of the speaker in which to
entertain the people he wanted to
influence. (Which Murk Twnin
din.)
' Morgan, who ought to know,
said that sort of thing isn't very
easy lotiay.
"Seriously," he added, "a lobby.
1st can be a help in giving tech
nical advice. For instance, u law
yer can go before a committee and
give the members the kind of le
gal advice on a topic Ihey could
not get anywhere else. Same as
the same lawyer who would give
a client In a court room. It's legal,
too."
Morgan didn't offer me any
yachts. And the cigar he gave
lie costs only n nickel. My cab
Iriver said it was a jiretly good
cigar.
