Announcement from "Wash
ington that Commissioner Den
nett, of the General Land Office,
had given orders for the imme
xliate consideration and final dis-
Eosition of all contests against
omestead entries in the Siletz
Indian Reservation, was wel
come news to the settlers, many
iof whose claims have been held
jip for several years. Commis
Ibioner Dennett gives the anxious
kettle rs further.assuring inforra
ution when he declared that no
contestaus has the right to re-ife-orc
to , the practice ot' a squat
ter. ,; : - - . ..- '-. :
I It is declared by the Commis
frioiier that as long as the entry
is in process of perfection only
the original entryinan has the
ligut to . occupy and use the
land. -The , only way for a con
testant to establish any claim to
a disputed homestead is to file
'contest proceedings, and then if
the contest is sustained ne has a
reference right of 30 days f ol
owing the cancellation of the
application to file on the land
jfor himself. But the squatter
obtains no prior rights by going
ion an unperfected homestead,
jmd the Department will consid
er such operations illegal.
MANY ENTBJES'aRE PENDING. "
, There are probably 400 home
stead entries in the Siletz Mdis
, trict that are "still pending, ,Z Of
that number probably 100 con
tests have been allowed , by the
General Land Office and "'are in
ferocess of litigation, pending
before the local land office or
E ending before the General
and Office, or Secretary of the
Interior on appeal. As to the
Other 300, the contests that have
been filed are still before the
Commissioner, who first passes
jbn the sufficiency of the com
plaint of the contestant before
the contest can be, further pros
ecuted. In view of the appar
ent attitude of Commissioner
Dennett to pass to patent all
Claims where the entrymen have
shown good faith, it is expected
that many 01 tne contests now
pending before him in their
initial state will be dismissed,
uuless there is flagrant evidence
of fraud and collusion Jbv the
entrymen. ' : s ; J
r Discussing the situation in
the Siletz district and the con
ditions under which the entry
men have proceeded, A. W. Laf
ferty, a land office attorney, of
Portland, says: .
: - "The dispatch from Washing
ton, D.C., is most encouraging to
the Siletz homesteaders. Com
missioner Dennett's interview
indicates that he has been thor
oughly advised by his special
agents stationed here. That
Oregon will -be justly treated by
the present administration of
the General Land Office goes
without saying. Both Commis
sioner Dennett and his Superin
tendent of Field Service, sta
tioned at Washington, H. H.
, Schwartz, are Western men, hav
ing been recently 5 appointed
from South Dakota and Mon
tana, respectively.
:, A few of my clients are inclu
ded in those ; held up and they
report that the local special
agents have recently been mak
ing a sweeping investigation of
the facts surrounding the Siletz
claims, particularly with refer
ense to the honesty of the settlers
in taking up the claims for their
own use and benefit and without
collusion. They state that this
investigation has also included a
thorough examination into the
facts surrounding the flood of
contests tiled against the origi
nal settlers years after they had
proved up. The settlers are
highly elated over the prospect
of receiving prompt and just
action at the hands of the Gen
eral Land Office.

of two to six inches with sand or melT

This Boring the bundles i should be
taken up and the cuttings set about
three inches apart, with only the top
most bud or buds above the surface of
the ground (see cut); The soil is then
replaced and thoroughly packed. In
planting, the cuttings should be expos
ed to light and air as little"as possible.
,' Up Against It. , - '
Feeding hogs economically with high
priced food is what every feeder of
swine is up against this season. It
will not accomplish the desired result
to cut down their rations or feed: just
enough to maintain existence. . They
must be fed enough .to make a dally
gain' or there will be no profit in your
winter's work. For the past ninety
days we have fed with success the fol
lowing rations twice each day, mixing
the evening . feed every: morning and
the morning teed each 'evening.' thus
letting It soak twelve to fourteen hours.
We prefer to mix with hot water but
If not convenient we use cold water.
Into a thirty-two gallon cask, we put
six. pounds old process pllmeaV. ten
pounds of wheat middlings, twenty
pounds of cornmeal. three pounds' of
salt Mix thoroughly and fill cask full
of water. This feeds forty head,, aver
age weight 100 pounds, at a cost ot Hi
cents oer head per feed, or 2 cents
per head per day. Driving them over
the scales each week shews a dally
gain of eight to twenty ounces per pig
per day. - At noon we. feed about . 200
pounds of refuse cabbage. Would feed

,, . Cotton In Arizona.. .'" '
Cotton- has been" known In Arizona
many years. Attempts, to grow it com
mercially, however, have thus far met
with economic failure, due to. absence'
of concerted "effort., inexperienced arid
high i priced, labor and the belief , that
with the same - soil . arid water better
returns can usually be obtained from
other , crops. Experiments carried on
in recent years have .given more defi
nite and favorable information con
cerning the crop In- this region. A
leaflet of the state experiment station
on "Cotton Growing In Arizona" pre
sents some of this and will be useful
to prospective planters. It is said that
the more recent experiments point
strongly toward Egyptian cotton as
best adapted to Arizona conditions.
The climate of the Salt arid Colorado
river valleys is similar to that of
Egypt. Both regions are irrigated and
are distinguished by the long growing
season, so essential to the proper ma
turing of Egyptian varieties of cotton.

The 'low average yield per acre of
corn graphically Illustrates the neces
sity for improvement, provided It can
be effected with a reasonable degree of
economy. Corn is the crop chiefly con- '
eerned In the maintenance and exten-j.
ton of onr animal industries, and with j .
the disappearance of the range country
It becomes " Increasingly more Impor
tant from year to year. There is no
danger of the corn crop exceeding our
needs, as the past season has plainly
demonstrated. Even with the average
ordinary yields the .various uses to
which corn can be put multiply out of .
proportion to the increase iu yield and .
acreage per annum. While there is ,
much uncultivated land that can be
utilized for corn, it Is nevertheless true
that the areas devoted to its growth
must.be kept In condition to raise maxi
mum crops if the supply is to be main- j
tained at a good level, not to speak of
Increasing it materially. The improve
ment of the corn plant- along rational
lines so that the methods can be adopt
ed successfully on every farm Is a mat
ter of serious Importance to the future
of our agriculture. a ,
; It la just as Important to select and
grow a pore ana perrect type or corn
as It la to select a well formed hog or
perfect type of dairy animal for breed
ing purposes. A higher per cent or
protein, greater productiveness ana
other valuable qualities which may be
bred Into corn by careful and Intelligent-selection
should greatly Increase
the value of this crop to the farmer. !
Farmers have pretty generally been
accustomed ; to .think they could pick
out a good ear of seed corn with rea
sonable certainty.' V.-8. Shoesmlth of
Kansas, however, declares that "It is
surprising how few people can pick
GOOD WESTBBM CORN.
These ' ears of seed com ' present a; nne
physical appearance. Notice shape and
uniformity of- grain.
Dut a good ear of corn before they are
carefully instructed and trained in the
vital points both as to desirable quail-
ties and defects."
All this leads to scienrinc corn rest
ing. While good farmers may judge
the vitality of corn with -much correct
ness by its appearance, It is maintain
ed by many who have made -a study of
this point that the germination test is
the only accurate method of judging
vitality, for sometimes corn wmcn ap
pears to be of low vitality will germi
nate fairly well, while corn wmcn ap
pears to be of good vitality may not
grow at all, C '
: RIGHT FERTILIZING.
Handsome Profits and Often Enormous
Returns Follow.
A. Goss of Indiana reports some very
Interesting data on- the. use of fer
tlllzers obtained by experience daring
a number of years past In the southern
part of the state. His conclusions are
of general .value, "however. . One' of
them is that.' while occasionally soils
are found -that do not respond to fer
tilizers, usually some combination has
been found that has produced band
some profits and not infrequently enor
mous returns. There is, for example.
no Question, that the application of pot
ash in considerable quantities on muck
soil is very profitable in connection
with the - growing of . corn and other
crops. -It "also seems certain 'that .the
liberal use of fertilizer on the potato
crop Is highly profitable and that fer
tilizer will usually ' pay weU. .. on the
wheat and corn crops if used in the
proper proportions and right amounts.
The work that has been done empha
sizes, the fact, however, that in order
to secure the best results it is neces-
sarv to understand the needs of the
particular " soil " arid crop to be used.
There is not the slightest doubt that a
large and , profitable increase-in crop
production could be brought about in
the state by a Tnore systematic and in
telligent use of fertilizers. .
The turning under , of leguminous,
.crops, was. found ;to be the cheapest
means of supplying gains ;and other
nonleguminous crops with nitrogen.
Experiments with' untreated rock
phosphate in" comparison with acid
phosphate indicate that the untreated
phosphide la "a' cheap and effective
source of phosphorus where immedi
ate returns are .not required. For
quick returns acid phosphate .or some
other readily available form should be
used." In these experiments heavy ap
plications of rock and acid phosphate
still showed marked results after three
years. "'
Similar results were secured with
applications of potash, and the conclu
sion is therefore drawn that there. Is
little danger of serious loss by leach
ing of either phosphorus or potassium
on ordinary Indiana soil. "Nitrogen,
on the other hand," is readily -washed
out and should not be applied much In
excess of what Can be taken care of
by the immediate crop."
No injurious effect on the soil was
observed from the continued use of
acid phosphate. . . '

You soon notice the large scales on the

their edge.
The Sarcoptes mightily increase, and
other scales are soon affected. The

An extra good coaxer in a pigeon
loft will sometimes split a family and

can just succeed in mating the desert

,. Our good housewives who thke a
whole day to pick a duck and swear
(figuratively) that they will never do so
again hold their breath to bear that
some experts can clean the frills off of
eighty in a day.
The main reason why there Is so
much trouble in undressing ducks dry
is because they are allowed to get cold.
Start to pick before "the blood stops
and the feathers set, and keep cool
yourself if it's a hot day. Use duck
feather fan.
If for market, keep feet, and head
from water, as It will change their
color. Blankets are not needed and
make sickly looking birds.

ing qualities are considered: Freshness,
size, texture and cleanliness of shell,

"What Is a square deal?" is dis
cussed in one of the poultry journals.
Well,, what is a square deal, anyhow?
Just explain this for us to the fellow
who wants something for' nothing or
sells you nothing for something. We
haven't time. A customer wrote us
May 23: "I thought I would write and
tell you how many chickens we . got
out of the two settings of eggs. We
got thirty-three out of thirty-four, but
the heos stepped on, three and killed
them.". Give us a deal like that when
we buy from you. That's all.
