Los t tine and Wallowa correctly rspreer.t ; d as being lined up against the I reduction? ENTERPRISE FOUGHT ALONE. Just why the representatives from Joseph, Lostine and Wallowa should j oppoee tie asked for reductions in freight rates is not clear. True there were side issues brought up, and an attempt made by the railroad attorney to pit the three towns against Enter prise, but those were no reasons for long-headed business men to fall into the astute attorney's trap. Even If some of the complainant's witnesses should nurse grievances of alleged discrimination in the wool schedule, and other matters of town rivalry, those matters were secondary. The main point af'eots Joseph, Los tine and Wallowa equally with Enter prise, and it was a splendid oppor tunity for the representatives of those towns to have risen above petty jeal ousy and joined in the goad work for the benefit of the people who buy their goods in those towns. As it i3, the whole b'ame for the hearing and the punishment to he meted out by the railroad will fall on Enterprise. On the other hand; if the rates are reduced, the credit must be given to Enterprise, that put up the fight singlehanded and alone but "Ccrefu! Barking Insures !kt Safety of Defos&s."

One of the- important thinjrs to take Into acrwtnt ia determining the Taloe ef a fee& stnj its digesrifcOtr.

The erode Cber, while ia- ' digestible la Jaelf. dintes the more concentrated feeds and greatiy hastens ; the process of digestion. The rami- i cants are able to obtain a large share ; of their feed from rocghage. Horses '. use considerable, though owing 13 : their smaller stomach they cannot use as large quantities as cattle do. Swine are nsnailT regarded as rj-ain eating animals, yet they, too. d. better for haring some roughage. Harare hogs : will maintain themselves on a good rape or clover pasture without any grain at all. and fattening swine wiil make greater gam if fed on pasture. I no. xxvn TKzea is no food eetteji i tne comparative cost vt ppjit-in ia the thax KOi fob locsa ajtutaxa. different byproducts can he Enured In winter, when pasture is not avails- j ont an1 the one used whieh whl fur ble. hogs will eat considerable amounts nlsn lt 111 tile cheapest furm. of clover or alfalfa hay if they can get it and will be healthier and make better gains tor haring It. Another important quality In a feed- stuff Is its palatabiUry. Stuck wia make greater gains on feeds that they like, even though they contain no more catritive material than those that are not so palatable. Closely re- iated to palatahlliry is succulence or jucinesa. Cows give a large flow of milk on pasture not so much because of its falh feeding value, but because of its succulents and oalatahillrr. Stock of any kind will not mk th - use of their feed If given noth- m dry hay and grain. t-w . . - - ut iui aauKiacrory means 01 pro- riding cucculeDt and palatable feed during the winter Is by the use of the silo. StJage has a high feeding raiue and is cheap, since from eight to twelve tons can be raised on an acre. It finds its greatest use as a feed for dairy cows, but otso makes a proflta- bie addmon to Kit ration of nearly all classes of stock. The most important point to consid- er in DreDarinx a ration Is the nia. nPruon or ine cinereut coa- stituents. Fats and carbohydrates ."...uc auu ran ue con- 8lder- together, since they both go I t0 neat aDd eMrgy o np ,01 faL Neither of the-je -b- . . w, ... u lur Biuuuui OI protein is In the nroner nrnnnrtinn t the amounts of fats and carbohy drates must be fed. It can readily Le seen that what is a balanced ration for one class of stock may not be for another. Young calves, colts and pigs require more protein and ash In their food than do mature animals. A work horse needs large amounts of fat and carbohydrates to supply him with energy, but he also needs considerable protein to repair bis muscles, which wear out very rapidly. A fattening steer needs only a minimum amount of protein, since be Is neither growing nor using tus muscles. A milk cow needs a great deal of protein and ash to use in mak ing milk, together with a liberal mount of the other constituents, to supply energy and to make Into but ter fat. A pregnant animal is in espe cial need of protein and ash to use In building op the bones and flesh of its offspring. All animals need larger quantities of the beat forming ele ments in the winter In order to keep the body warm. Another important point, one that must not be lost sight of in preparing rations tor any class of stock. Is the cost. It makes no difference bow di gestible, palatable or wen balanced a ratten may be tyr bow rri- JTtis It wiZ prepuce. If tbse galas ere pot oa at too great an 'cra ti Sm&sz last two years.

In buyfeg feed t laian.'e c ,ra or other grain the chief cnnsilerati.j!: should be the amonat cf di;tli!e ! protein which It contains. Ash is t.Vn important, especially if it Is to be fed with ecru, which is low la ash. Er dirlding the pri--e tr ton of a faed by tne number of pound of dicestihie protein in a ton the pre per pottr.d of protein is easily determined. Thus For noS3 thre is pr-jbabiy no better ' or cn,per source c-f protein thaa tank- ; se or meat meal. A ration of one j ps-n ' ttis ten iarts of com is an i Weitl OB toT fattening hogs. For !

A lack of ash is the chief fault that can be found with the corn byprod-1 nets such as germ oil meal and gluten feed. For this reason these feeds are f not so valuable for milk cows and I young stock, although they are ail i right for fattening animals. Oil and S cottonseed meals contain more asli ! than the corn products, but not so ! much as tankage. They are usually ' a cheap source of nrotein. Oilmeal is especially valuabie for keor.lnJ th-! system In tone, the bowels aui the coat sleek and glossy. Cottonseed meal should nerer be fed to hogs, as they often die from eating it. There Is nothing better taan ciorer Pasture to balance the ration of fat tening swine. Clover pawnw, with Perha,w a small allowance of grain is an Ideal feed for milk cowaie, colts. The little pigs will learn To eat it also, but will need coiwidbta grain ar 1 skimmUt In li,,:.? 7. they are to make rapid gains.
