THE FIRST COMMENCEMENT. The first commencement of the Wallowa county high school is aj epjch in the progress of education in thii county. First, the straggling and struggling private or temporary s.ho:ls of pioneer days; then the r zhar. organized district schools in country and tswn; then the adding of a few advanced stndie3 dignined u the name, "high school grades," finally culminating in the splendid hl,h schoj', second to none la the state, eiual to the famous old New England academies, and wher3 e ery graduate of a district school in all Wal'.owa may receive an edu cation suf Helen t, in 99 vocations out of 100, for an practical purposes. The class of 1909, three bright yoaths Just entering into young man hood, are a credit to the school, their instructors and the county, but no ma ter how distinguished their future .jreer they will always have occasion to feel proud they were members of the first graduating clais of the Wal lowa co miy high school. Why? liecause the school will grow from year to jeir into greater ef ficiency and usefulness, and the day wiil come when Its students will be numbered by tbe thousands, and its courses of study will not o:ily train the minds but the hands and bodies of all the youth of this great county empire. There is a glo loas future In store for the county high school. OPFORTUNE TIME FOR BUILDING MAIN SEWER. It has been suggested that this s miner would be an opportune time to construct a main sewer from the hih school down main street, past ' lie s-.-hool, court house, Hotel ;rrrle and principal business no isei, turning on We3t First street to Greenwood, pan the Commercial i ''el and on to the outlet. Tho court house mut have a sewer con nection, the s h )ols and hotels nee It badly. Un'e-s some mutual a rangement h made between the clt. ami county board the latter will be compelled to bear the entire expens of a sower for the court house. It ii also an opportune time becaus a contract coald be made with th American Light & Power compan; to dig the trench with the stean ditcher after the completion of th water works at a cost much less than If the machinery and men were no already here oa the ground. The expense could and should b. equitably distributed among three parties: The city, the county boarr' and the private property owner directly benefitted. Just what pro portion or share- each should p own to be easily adjustel and nt doubt would be. The main thing U iier and the details wit work oat .8 a remit of the confer ee ea. i the city Is not able to pay In Its share this year, it ought no be a difficult mntter to negotiate its variants for the amount necessary.

Awl. Cashier r TUT n t uiome vourse In i Modern Agriculture ; XIV. Some Points on Stock Feeding J By C. V. GREGORY, t Agricultural TH-Oision. Iotoa State College Copyright. 1808. by American Press Association SK order that the feeds fed to stock may be used to tbe best possible advantage It Is necessary that they should be of the proper kinds and fed In the proper amounts. One of tbe Important things to take Into account In determining tbe value of a feeding stuff Is its digestibility. Some feeds, such as oat straw, are not more than SO per cent digestible, while In tbe case of the corn grain over 90 per cent Is used by the animal. Feeds with a high percentage of digestibility, tike the grains, are called concentrates, while those with a large amount of In digestible crude fiber are called rough feeds. Every anlraaTmust have a certain amount of roughage; otherwise the grain would He In tbe stomach In a heavy, sodden mass, which could hard ly be penetrated by the digestive Juices, and Indigestion would be sure to result. The crude fiber, while in digestible in Jtself, dilutes the more concentrated feeds and greatly hastens the process of digestion. The rumi nants are able to obtain a large share of their feed from roughage. Horses use considerable, though owing to their smaller stomach they cannot use as Urge quantities as cattle do. Swine are usually regarded as rgaln eating animals, yet they, too, do better for having some roughage. Mature hogs will maintain themselves on a good rape or clover pasture without any grain at all, and fattening swine will make greater gain If fed on pasture. riO. XIVII THERE IS KO FOOD BETTKU THAN MlUt FOB YOUHU ANU1AXS. In winter, when pasture Is not availa ble, bogs will eat considerable amounts- of clover or alfalfa hay If they can get It and will be healthier and make better gains for having It Another Important quality In a feed stuff Is Its palatablllty. Stock will make greater gains on feeds that they like, even though they contain no more nutritive material than those that are not so palatable. Closely re lated to palatablllty Is succulence or juclneas. Cows give a large flow of milk on pasture not so much because of Its high feeding value, but because of Its succuleuct aud palatablllty. Stock of any kind will not make the best use of their feed If given noth ing but dry bny and grain. Tho most satisfactory means of pro viding succulent and palatable feed during tbe winter Is by tbe use of the silo. Silage has a high feeding value 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 also makes a profita ble' addition to Rie ration of nearly all classes of stock. The most Important point to consid er In preparing a ration Is the rela tive proportion of tbe different con stituents. Fats and carbohydrates are Interchangeable and can be con sidered together, since they both jo to furnish heat and energy or to I ullil np animal fat. Neither of these sub stances, however, can take tbe place of protein, since neither of tbem con tains nitrogen. To build up the mus cles, organs and other parts of the body which require this element con siderable protein must be fed. The ordinary feeds found on the farm contain too little protein In proportion to the other substances. To secure the best results a balanced ration that Is, one In which tbe amount of protein Is In the proier proportion to the amounts of fats and carbohy dratesmust be fed. It can readily be seen that what Is a balanced ration for one class of stock may not be for another. Toong 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 carbohydrate to supply him with energy, but he also needs considerable protein to repair his muscles, which wear out very rapidly. A fattening steer needs only a minimum amount of protein, since he la neither growing nor using his muscles. A milk cow needs a great deal of protein and ash to use In mak ing milk, together with a liberal amount of the other constituents, to supply energy and to make Into but ter rat A pregnant animal is in espe cial need of protein and ash to use in building up tbe bones and flesh ot Its offspring. All animals need larger quautitlea ot the heat forming ele ments In tbe winter In order to keep the body warm. Another Important point, one that must not be lost Right of in preparing rations for any class of stock, la the coat. It makes no difference how di gestible, palatable or well balanced a tt ration may be nor how rapid gains It will produce, If those gains are put on at too great an expense the feeding operations win result hi a loss. For the last two years, for Instance, bran and shorts have been so high In price that It is doubtful If they could be fed at a profit. Eran produces a large milk flow when fed to cows, but silajre and clover hay are Just as good and cost only a fraction as much. The question of how much a farmer can- afford to spend for concentrated byproduct Is always a perplexing one. Something Is needed to balance tbe corn, which Is the principal feed on most farms, if nothing else Is fed with corn It will not be thoroughly digested and much of tbe nutriment which It contains will be wasted. When com is cheap this does not mat ter so much, but when the price goes up to 50 or CO cents a bushel It be comes an important consideration. This applies not only to corn, but to other grains as well, since all contalu an excess of carbohydrate and fat. Oata come the nearest to 1 $ g a bal anced ration of any farm prain. but tbey ore usually too expensive to be fed exclusively. Mixing oats with corn does not make a balanced ration, since the oats have scarcely enough protein to balance their own cnrSohydrates and fats. Another factor 41 icii must be taken into consideration Is the health of the animals. This will surely suffer If they are compelled to live 'long on a single kind of feed, especial ly one that Is as low In protein as corn is. When grain Is high In price the sor ing effected by the purchase of socio supplementary feed rich in protein will usually much more than pay the cost In buying feed to balance corn or other grain tbe chief consideration should be the amount of digestible protein which it contains. Ash la also Important especially If it Is to be fed with corn, which Is low in ash. By dividing the price per ton of a feed by the number cf pounds of digestible protein In a ton the price per pound of protein Is easily determined. Thus the comparative cost of protein In the different byproducts can be figured out nnd the one nsed which will fur njsh It In tbe cheapest form. . For hogs there Is probably no better or cheaper source of protein than tank age or meat meal. A ration of one part of this to ten parts of corn Is an Ideal one for fattening hogs. For growing pigs the amount of tankage should be doubled and some sklmmllk added If It can be obtained. Milk Is an almost perfect food for all young stock, and tbe farmer who has a large supply of It has a big part of his feed ing problem solved. Another feed that is invaluable for your.g pigs and calves Is dried blood or blood flour. Nothing else will stop scours so quickly nor do so much to ward starting along an unthrifty pig or calf. . A heaping teaspoonful to a feed Is enough for a young calf, with proportionate amounts for the pigs. The reason that these packing house byproducts are especially valuable for young animals Is because of the large amount of ash which they contain. The use of such feeds Insures strong bones and healthy, vigorous animals. OSnVl IBISES! fio. xivrrt cxovkb'pastcwi is an ex- CBIOJtMX FOOD FOH bUEKP. A lack of ash Is the chief fault that can be found with the corn byprod ucts, such as germ oil meal and gluten feed. For this reason these feeds are not so valuable for milk cows and young stock, although tbey are all right for fattening animals. Oil and cottonseed meals contain more ash than the corn products,, but not so much as tankage. They are usually a cheap source of protein. Oilmeal Is especially valuable for keeping the system In tone, the bowels loose and the coat sleek and glossy. Cottonseed meal should never be fed to hogs, as they often die from eating It There Is nothing better than clover pasture to balance tbe ration of fat tening swine. Clover pasture, with perhaps a small allowance of grain, is an Ideal feed for milk cows, calves and colts. The little pigs will learn to eat It also, but will need considerable grain aM sklmmllk In addition If they are to make rapid gains. Clover hay and corn Is a ration for fattening cattle and sheep that cannot be beat en. Clover hay and silage with a lit tle corn and oilmeal added, is a first class winter feed for dairy cattle. Even for hordes clover hay. If not dUBty, la the best of roughage. Ita liberal use for all classes of stock will reduce the cost of feeding and add to the profits. So It Is evident that the wise farmer will not neglect to provide clover pasture that Is ample. Chamberlain's " Liniment This Is a new preparation and a good one. It Is especially valuable as a cure for chronic and muscular rheu matism, and for the relief from pain which It affords In acute Inflamma tory rheumatism. Those who have used It have Invariably spoken of It In the highest terms of praise. Lame back, lame shoulder and stiff neck are due to rheumatism of the mus cles, usually brought on by exposure o cold or damp, and 'are quickly cured by applying this liniment freely and massaging the affected parts. Soreness of the muscles, whether i iuucei by violent exercise or Injury, is allayed by'this liniment. For al jy Burnaugh & Mayfield. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION. Department of the Interior.
