Sunflower Silage Oregon Agricultural College, Corvallis, May 15 (Special.) Sunflower silage has not been as popular in the past year as be fore besause of low livestock . prices and an abuudance of hay. Sunflower silage is most appre ciated in the winter months when pasture is short and more feed is needed. G. R. Ilyslop, professor of farm crops, says that sunflowers make good silage for winter feediner of dairv cattle, for ; spring of any stock and especial lv for sheep previous to and during the lambing season. Sunflowers are probably the best crop for dry land silage production. Some persons have had difficulty with them because they planted late maturing, va rieties? Results are best with early maturing sunflowers be caufce they may be put into the silo when the seed is in the hard . dough stage, when they are more palatable and nutritious, Experiments by H. A. Scloth, at the Oregon experiment station show that 5 to 10 pounds of salt to a ton of sunflowers improves the palatability and quality of the silage. Reasonable quantities of early maturing seed developed in the northwest are available. In dis tricts where crops must be grown under dry land or frosty conditions, sunflowers have prov ed themselves capable of heavy production. There is no occasion, however, to grow sunflowers on irrigated land where peas, oats or corn may be grown success fully. Sunflower silage may be suc cessfully stored in the new trench silo which is much less expensive than the above ground silo. The sunflows are cut into the trench silo the same as into the ordinary silo. An ordinary silage cutter without the elevat ing attachment may be success fully used for cutting the silage into the right lengths. Less power is needed than in filling the above, ground silo, but the J. T. silage must be well tramped. This is best done by having a small boy ride a horse in the silo when the filling is being put in. The silage may need wetting near the walls if they ae dry. The top is covered with wet straw to exclude air. Sunflowers may be successfully grown on many of the dry ranches and isolated stock ranches of East- em Oreeron. High yields of cheap succulent feed will mean less hay and grain feed required and a better spring condition of stock. Josephine O'Brien Wapinitia Carl Pratt is back on the mail route.

A Worthy Cause A NEWS ARTICLE which we publish today sets forth some of the main facts regarding the progress of the University of Oregon gift campaign. It is a worthy movement, well deserving of the support of every man and woman who believes in the University of Ore gon and who favors giving the rising generation of boys and girls their maximum chance in the world through the equipment of higher education. The University of Oregon has in recent years been faced with a serious problem. ' Its attendance has been growing faster than have its facilities or its maintenance funds. In 1 9 1 3-1 4 there were 732 students enrolled. To day there are 2,389. For this year the total will reach , 2500. Within the ten-year period just past the enroll ment in Oregon's high schools has almost trebled. Ten times as many high school graduates are going to higher institutions of learning as were going ten years ago. On the basis of all this it may be confidently predicted that at tendance at the University of Oregon will double again within the next five yeass. In 1 920 the University of Oregon received from the state under the millage bills $806,497. In 1 924 it will re ceive $848,820. Thus the income from the state in four years has increased 5 per cent. Attendance in that four years has increased 39 per cent, eight times as fast. Ob viously a 5 per cent increase in income will not take aire of a 39 per cent increase in attendance. The University must increase its income. Oregon is tax-burdened al ready, and the University does not desire to go to the Tax payers for a larger millage tax. Hence the gift campaign." Through this gift campaign the University hopes to raise $5,000,000 in five years. The money will be ex pended for new buildings and increased facilities. The University alumni have undertaken to raise $1,000,000 for three principal buildings. The current student body will finance another building, the Student-Union. Citi zens of Eugene have undertaken to raise $500,000 for a University auditorium. Thus a very substantial begin ning has been made. A little later the intensive campaign is to ramify. The whole public will be asked to partici pate. It is a worthy cause. Dr. T.
