ii :l EHT 0M anv A omui EEHRIGG ROSUE RIVER VALLEY OREGON CORRESPOND: S0UC1TE r This matter must not be reprinted with out special permission. Kindness Is the only mentis that it Is worth while using to get even with another. It Is all right to use this "on the other fellow, and do It Hr.'jt." If forest fires are threatening lo north, central and eastern slates in May, what may we look for in late August and September If we should fiuve a dry summer? The secretary of the Kansiis state board of health contributes hit mite to the solution of the omnipresent fly problem when be declares that flies ecu be kept away from kitchens and barns by painting them blue and by growing hops around the doors. The toad hus little to commend it In the way of looks, but in its quiet. sluggish way it renders a aervlce to the tiller of the soil hi the destruction of bugs, worms and insects that can hardly be measured. The small boy should be told of its usefulness and taught to protect rather than harm it. Life is all too short to upend very ; much time wearing a fellow's patience inud religion out fooling around with a kicking cow or a bulky horse. The cow will fulfill her mission on the ' block In the butcher's shop, and us for the horse well, sell lilui for Just what he is to some one else who enjoys sub duing Urate orueriuess. That a cow is better for u rest be tween ber milking periods Is nicely ' shown lu the case of the world's ' uillk and butter record cow. Colautbn IV.'s Joanna, she being dry a lull year prior to the iulerval in which she made her great record. TUe common cow giving au average yield of milk is the better for a couple of months' rest be 'tween her periods of lactallou. and for the same reason as lu the above in stance. A reader of tbls department ask what to do to get rid of moles. Per hilps II would be well first to find out ,j whether the offender Is really doing more harm than good, which Is an open question. If the little chap Is plowing up the lawn In bad shape aud Is not rendering a compensating serv , Ice In flower or vegetable gurdeu he . may be dispatched by buying uud setting one of the mole traps for sale at most any hardware store. Charles Akeley, un American hunter naturalist, recently shot In East Af rica what is said to be the largest ele pHaut on record. The great beast stood eleven feet four Inches at the shoulder, nnd the circumference of a : frout foot was sixty-seven and a half Inches, while the two tusks weighed respectively 05 aud I lu pounds. The foot of Junibu. the fatuous circus ele phant, Is said to have had a circum ferenee of but sixty-one Inches. A lady friend who Is Interested In ' bird life tells us that a flock of about : a dozen bluejays visited the neighbor hood In which she lives the other day ' and played havoc with the nets of a , number of oilier valuable birds. Col lectlvely and Individually the blue u. are outlaws and pirates In the bl:d world, and their nests and efig sbonli be destroyed, particularly when found In the vicinity of other useful birds like the robin, bunting and catbird. Added to this destructive trait which they possess, like the sparrow they render verv meager service In the de struction oT Insect life. It Is i first rata Idea to keep dishes of fly poison just outside the back door, for a dead fly looks a whole lot nicer there thuu he does lu a frying pan, in a glass of milk or a bowl of gravy. The finest beverage that the good Lord ever made Is also the cheapest H,0, otherwise known as plain water. Drinking' it does not make a fellow see snakes, soften his brain, deplete bis bank account or curse bis family Now and then a pig will get thin and stay In poor condition simply be cause of poor teeth. We have seen bogs of this type being fed on ear corn that picked up right away when the same amount of corn or less was fed in the shape of meal. . It la usually greedy folk those who want to get something for nothing that most often fall prey to multitudl nous skin games. That Is, they get plucked by a class of sharks who are busy at the same game as they are. the only difference being that the sharks succeed and wax fat on it. The fear that Is sometimes felt by the one Just installing a silo that en silage not used within a year may spoil does not seem to be Justified In view of the experience of the Wiscon sin station, where ensilage has been kept in excellent shape under proper conditions for a period of Ave or six years. Time was when it was thought out of the question to separate little chicks any distance from a clucking old hen. Today literally tens of thousands of downy little fellows but a few days old are shipped by express from mitnf big poultry centers and given the kind ly and louseless housing of a brooder on arriving at their destination. Thanks to recent alertness and ac tivity oa the part of the postal author ities, a whole lot of grafters who have been using the mails to misrepresent and defraud have been run to earth and In many cases have not only bad to pay heavy tines, but many of them are now doing time In federal prisons. Let tbe good work go on, for there are still others who should be chased Into tbe open. From most points of view rats are an all around nuisance, but when tele phone linemen lay wires in under ground conduits they come in handy. A light cord Is fastened around a rat's neck, and It is released at the mouth of the conduit. Instinctively It runs through to the other end. Here it is caught and tbe end of tbe string se cured. This is used to pull a wire through, and this in turn to pull through the cable containing many wires. A decision that Is bound to have far- reaching effect upon tbe forest eonser vatlon problem and along the line of giving deflnlteness to the beretofore quite hazy relation existing as between national and state prerogatives was handed down by tbe supreme court of the United States a short time since. In brief It holds that the federal gov ernment without consent of the states affected may set aside vast areas of public lands and that when such re serves are created they are not sub ject to state fencing laws. Notwithstanding the fact that we at tribute bo large a measure of tbe skill of birds to Instinct, tbe fact seems to be pretty well established that both along the lines of nest building and song they are In a large degree Imi tative, learning the "how" by watch ing older birds of tbe same breed with which they are usually mated and by hearing their songs. It bns been noted along a similar line that little chicks that are batched In an incubator and that are not with a ben at all will uot do one-quarter of the scratching that those will that are batched and brooded In the usual way and have an example of scratching set for them. Peanut butter Is not only an a polls Ing food product, but very nutritious, and It Is uot difficult to make. The peanuts meats may Is1 roasted In m moderate oveu either liefor or after helling, but lu either case thi'y should be stirred quite frequently to Insure even roasting. Tbe skins should then be rubU-d off. The meats may be ground In an ordinary meal grinder by using the finest plate aud sioulil be ruu through a second time If neces sary. If tbe butter Is quite oily after grinding the ouly Ingredient that need be added will be a little salt. If It Is not as oily as desirable a little olive or peauut oil may be added. If any of our readers have apple trees that rested last year and bore I a blossoms this spring we would sug gewt they make au exei1ment with them In the matter of summer prun ing, tilth means the removal during the latter part of July and early Au gust of tbe llinba and newer growth that would normally be removed dur ing tbe sprlug months. Pruulng at tb time specified summer tends to check wood growth and to tbe forma tion of fruit buds for tbe following year. Often treea grow so thriftily and vigorously that tbey will produce oa fruit at all. Summer pruning la a sort of shock to the tree, and It la this etback that tends to (ba production of fruit bud. Tba damp cellar may not be pri marily due to too much alude about the bouse, but there Is no getting around tbe fact that tbe situation Is Fgravalod by aurb shade. Tbe germ Jctroylug uiii-lun aud freb air oujitit to enter the cellar windows dur ing a part o( every day. The farmers living In Sangamon county. 111., have organized an associa tion whose watchword or slogan is "200 bushels of corn per acre." Tbla smacks just a bit of the high school graduating motto, "Hitch your wagon to a atar," yet It has a deal In Ha fa vor. The country over the average yield of corn la thlrty-flve bushela per acre or less, while there are Isolated Instances where aa high as 100 bush els per acre have been grown. It Is ;lear that tba Illinois farmers propose to do what Ilea in their power to better tbls thirty-five bushel yield. It would mean more corn In tbe crib and bigger bank accounts if every county lu the corn belt bad just such an organization. AN HERB INQUIRY. A reader of these notes living near ,Vnlley Falls. Ken., a widow who has her own and ber little daughter's sup port on hand, writes stating thnt'she has U4 property, but believes she could make something by gathering herbs for medicinal purposes. She Inquires especially about the burdock and bore bound, both of which grow plentifully in the locality in which she lives. TUe writer has never bad any experience In tbe gathering and drying of herbs, but Is glad to give the following data, taken from farmers' bulletin No. 188. entitled ''Weeds Used In Medicine," which our correspondent jean get by seudlng 6 cents in coin to tbe office of public documents at Washington. This describes some thirty kinds of common medicinal weeds and would be of value to any one desiring lo gather them for market. As to burdock, the roots should be collected lu the fall of tbe year from the larger plants that are In their second year. The roots should be washed carefully after dig ging, split lengthwise and carefully dried. This Is best done by exposing them to the light and ulr "(not direct sunlight) on racks -or shelves or on clean, well ventilated barn floors or lofts. They should be spread out thin ly and turned every day or two for from three to six weeks. If properly cured the roots should snap when bent, In securing tbe roots of any herb It is well to take special care in drying, as they will mildew and spoil If not properly cured. The roots shrink in weight about four-fifths and will fetch, cured, from 3 to 8 cents a pound. The burdock seed, for which there is a lim ited demand, should be secured as soou as It la ripe and brings from 5 to 10 cents per pound. The horehound Is a bushy, branching herb belonging to the mint family, and only the leaves and tops are used In medicine. These should be gathered just before the herb Is lu flower, the coarse parts be ing rejected. The leaves should be dried In the maimer suggested for the burdock roots, care being takpn to turn them when drying nnd to store so that they will not gather moisture. The price paid for horehound leaves varies from 3 to 8 cents per pound. The old world hns mighty little to offer boys who start out In life at ten rears old sucking cigarettes, except quarters lu Insane asylums, ppultentla ries or jobs holding down dry goods boxes, rubbing the sand off depot wans at train time or touring the country on hrake beams. None of these occupa tions, by tbe way. yields a very band some salary. It Is well for the boy to look Into the future far enough to make up bis mind whether be wants to hang out with tbls kind of company If he doesn't be would better cut the cigarettes out. Figures gathered by investigators In tbe federal department of agriculture show that those engaged In the smltry business in the United States suffer a loss of $45.(100.000. or 15 iwr cent of the annual value of the egg output, .'K).00O.0O0. through the careless handling of the product. This loss is traced to fa'ilure to provide adequate and clean nesting places, irregularity in gathering, keeping In warm instead of cool places and infrequency or marketing. It is safe to say. In addi tion, that the bulk of this loss is sus tained by farm poultry raisers ralber than those who make of poultry rais ing a primary business. Tbe leak is one that should be stopped. BENEFITS OF TILE DRAINAGE. C. O. Elliott, drainage expert of tbe department of agriculture, has sum marized the benefits derived from tile drainage In the following paragraph. The reasons In favor of tiling given are so pertinent and plain that tbey might well be committed to mem ory by every farmer who has wet acres lhat are fetching hlra in little or no revenue: (li In the land that Is properly tiled the surface soil is re tained entire Instead of the finest and most fertile parts being carried off with every considerable rainfall. (2i Any plant food in manure or other fertilizer deposited upon the soil is carried Into It with the water as It percolates downward from the sur- face. and so becomes thoroughly In corpornted with the soil. (3) Rain water as It passes through the soil serves a most useful purpose by dis solving and preparing crude soil mate rial for the nutrition of plants. (4i The soil having been well prepared. It Is at all times during the growing sea son In' readiness . for the growth of plants, such growth not being hinder ed by stagnant water or saturation (5) The frost goes out earlier In the spring, so that the planting season opens one or two weeks earlier than In the case of soil affected by surface drains only. (0) Where stiff clays are found the soil Is made more porous, open and friable and roots penetrate more deep ly than they do into surface drained soils. (7) The effects of drought are diminished, as has been found by ex perlence, owing to the enlarged and deepened soil bed and to the more fa vorable condition of the surface for preventing excessive evaporation of moisture. (8) It aids In making new aoll out of tbe unprepared elements, since It permits a freer entrance of air and atmospheric beat, which disinte grate soil material hitherto unavail able for the use of plants. fj Stub born aud refractory soils when drained are frequently so changed In texture and mechanical structure that they lie come easily managed and respond It cultivation with abundant clops. We heard the other day of a tactful fellow who got the better of a balky horse by bopping out of the rig aud pretending to adjust something about the hurness. By. the time he bad tied and untied the rump strap or moukey ed with the tug or bridle u bit and got back Into his aeat the horse was ready to start on. The writer has had equal ly good results while cultivating with horses inclined to balk by backing them-up a few steps und then starting ahead. But all schemes fall at times. and. like others, we have sat for a good half hour, with the thermometer regis tering 110 degrees F. in the shade In the vicinity of our rear collar buttou. waiting for Tom to get over a balky streak. It takes a stack of patience, much philosophy nnd all or more re ligion than u fellow can muster to keep sweet tempered when he bus one of the ornery critters on his bauds. Time was when cows needed their horns for self protection, but under modern domestic conditions they are useless and often dangerous uppend nges. The best and easiest method of dehorning Is by the application of some caustic potash to the germ of the horns when the calf is a few days old. After the horn has got a good start the Job must be done by saw or clip pers. Many a dairyman hesitates to dehorn his cows because of tbe harm ful effect he thinks it will have In re ducing their milk flow. However, this Is likely to be overestimated. A test made at the Kansas Agricultural col lege In a herd of twelve cows with a view to determining the shrinkage as a result of dehorning showed that lu the five days prior to the operation It rave 1,142.5 pounds of milk, while In t ie five days following it gave 1.100.7 pounds, or a total shrinkage for tbe twelve cows of 40.8 pounds. This amounts to sixty-nine one hundredths of a pound of milk per cow each day. or about half a pint. On the fifth day after dehorning all except two of the cows were giving as much milk, and a few more thnn they did the day be fore their horns were removed.

There may be some readers who have a quark gram problem uu their bunds this season. If s.i they will be interested in the following direc tions for getting rid of It: Let the grass grow until blossom time, then cut close aud make for hay In-fore any seed develops. ' Plow to a good depth, using breaking plow If necessary, a id disk rejieatedly until a good seed bed la formed, raking up carefully aud burning all roots left on tbe surface. Then seed heavily to rye or millet. W hen the cover crop Is coming into bloom turn tbe whole cover crop un der In tba ahape of green manure. Best results will be bad with this plnn If there la rain during tbe summer months, so that tbe cover crop will f.uke a rank growth. If tbe fall la wet and there la some of the quack grass that shows a tendency to grow tbe field should be given repeated dlsklnga to prevent the shoots or roots aeelng daylight or air or having any "peace." Another plowing Just before freeieup, which will expose the roota to the action of the frost, will usually live tie finishing touchea. There ar all too many rban who haven't time to "monkey or fusa" test- lug seed corn . who stupidly spend hours and even d.iy later In tbe sea son cultivating bare ground In fields which have half or a third of a stand because the seed used wasu't any good And It is often these same fellows who biam the weather or the party power or their bad luck because they don't get ahead In tbe world. An Ayrshire cow. Nethernli Brownie IX.. owned by J. W. Cllse of Seattle. Wash., bas lately completed a year's test In which she surpassed tbe record previously held by any cow of this excellent breed. She gave 18.110 pounds of milk containing 820.91 pounds of butter fat, equivalent to 058 pounds of butter. While this does not estubllsh a world's record for cows of any breed, it Is n performance that Ayrshire breeders of the country are much pleased with. Notice to Creditors.
