FAM1 d&jj mib GAtffiOl F.ETRIGG , knrriWLPow; VALLEY OREGON CCMttSKWDtNCC -SOLICITEO IThU tnnttfr mutt nol be rprlntd with out ipcUI prrolMlan ) Incubators resembling quite closely thone lu usxs at tbe prexent time are mM to have been In uso In Egypt 4.000 years ago, rotatoc at 23 cents a bushel furnish an cxcclleut an well as economical ra tion for hogs ami dairy cows, and tens of thousands of bushels of them wilt bo used that way the coming few months. The United States leads the world In tbe production of corn. Of other corn producing countries, Bpaln grew 23.0S1.000 bushels the past season, llua sla Cl.liOS.000 bushels and Egypt ?u 4-IS.000 bushels. . Cockerels that arc kept after OcL 15 unless Intended for breeding purpose) next season become higher priced meat with every day that pawes. for they eat greedily and do not make as rapid a gain In weight as they did In the first five or six months. Some one has figured out that if a man was as good a Jumper In propor tion to the length of his legs as a Ilea he could clear tbe top of the flagstaff on the Singer building in New Vork city. It U probably Just as well that he doesn't have the tlea's capacity for bopping around Doxens of dairy fanners are feeding and milking twenty cows twice per day each day of the year, when the chances are that twelve or fifteen of the number would pay n larger profit The whole Idea Is to find out which are tbe good cows and then give them tbo attention they need. The Virginia Horticultural society, through its secretary. Walter Whate ly of Crozet. Va.. offers J.VJ for the best five boxes of apples (one of each variety) of a given list of apples. The competition la open to the Dotted States and Canada, and the Virginians challenge any one to beat them. A northern Mississippi beekeeper la reported to have produced a hybrid bee, tbo result of mating a boney bee queen with a male bumblebee. The resulting brood produced a fair crop of boney from red clover, though tbe season was poor. Tbe hybrid Is of an attractive color, showing alternate red and yellow stripes. Odebolt, which Is located in Sac county. In west central Iowa, la the center of the largest popcorn produc ing section In tbe world, more than 10.000.000 pounds of popcorn being shipped from that point each year. Tbe yield of the cereal Is from 2.000 to 3.000 pounds per acre, which at 3 cent a pound means a gross revenue of from C0 to 100. If there Vs any occupation nnder tbe run that would "awm calculated to make a fellow tired of Hfe It U milking a herd of untested cows, half or more cf which are not giving enough return in milk and cream to pay for their keep and leave anything at all for care and the exacting labor connected with milking, which Isn't poetry by a long way even under most favorable tit' cumstat. At tbe third annual apple show held at Sebaatopot, Sonoma county. Cal.. a few weeks ago, 1,000,000 apples were displayed In attractive fusblon. An interesting fact in connection with tbe show was that all tbe apples were Qravenstelns. Special features were a booth11 In which Luther Ourbank ex hibited a great variety of new fruit creations, a box of apples from a tree one hundred years old and an exhibit of forty boxes, the product of a single tree. Every render seriously Interested In any phase of horticulture or agricul ture should haTe a copy of tbe year book of tbe United States department of agriculture. Tbe book may be got without cost by dropping a line ask ing for it to your representative or senator at Washington. The book con tains a world of information along In teresting and practical lines and not only gives a summary of crop statis tics but nccounts of tbe progress made In experimental and research work along a great variety of lines. Tbo Bulrer bill which was panned by congress n few weeks ngo uml became a law on receiving President Tnft'a denature, gives the following specifica tions of what Is to bo the standard up pie barrel of the future: Length of Mtave, twenty-eight nnd one-half Inches; diameter of bead, seventeen nnd one eighth Inches; distance between heads, twenty-six inches; circumference ' of' bulge, sixty-four Inches, outsldo meas urement. Tbe new barrel will contain 7.050 cubic inches. The law prescrib ing It wilt go into effect on July 1,1013, which will affect tbe pack ot next ceason'a crop. A . tv r la' t i f.v ht f . r Nii&!!

It may be hnd freo of charso by writing to the- department for It. j The Holland fnrtmir carries on dairy jig on laud worth from $000 to $S0O per acre nnd makes money nt It. In too ninny ItWtnncva the American farmer Is shinning nloiig on bnro ground on land that H worth $100, The difference Is merely lu the uuui nml his methods. it will often be found not only less expeuMve, but better for the children of the country school district, to pay fur hauling them to a good town school than to pay for n teacher and fuel In order to keep the district school oHu. ThW l especially true If tho number of pupils In the district Is small. A perfect dlnh of oatmeal, n cereal that 1 much used, but usunlly 111 cook ed. can be prepared by boiling for about fifteen minute and then stowing away In n tireless cooker overnight, toy this process tho oatmeal h not only thorouchly cooked, but It nlo keeps Ita shape. It Is not sloppy orrtdge. on tho one hand; neither Is It ntw nnd touch as n piece of ludla rubber. In sections where the winter precipi tation I heavy In tbe form of rain or snow and the winters are not so se vere as to mnke a cover crop In the orchard ndvlsnble for tho purpose of catching and holding the snow, plow ing In the fall Is recommended for the purpose of enabling the soil to tho better hold moisture, which In turn tends to prevent washing and gully Ing. With crop of practically all kinds showing unprecedented yields, with money plentiful labor employed and political agitation showing practically no effect on Industrial projects, nn era of proserlty and good times would seem to lie Just ahead Uio uso or which has not been experienced In a doten years. Etory man who has two hands mny aid In furthering It and should recclvo n generous share of Its benefits. One of tbe live subjects of very gvueral Interest that are to be discussed at the coming national apple show at Spokane la that of the handling and utilizing of tbe byprodnct-tbo Inferior grades of apples which cannot be boxed nnd marketed. This is a mighty llri nrnnonttlon. and nntll some satis factory solution Is offered there Is bound to be a big leak on a nost or ranches In the west, where. high standard of fruit for packing is In sisted upon. The high quality of fruit pocked by several noted western frnlt growers' associations Is the better understood when one Is on the ground and sees the amount nnd quality of the fruit that Is discarded for one reason or another The fancy box frnlt la the result of much pains In raring for trees and fruit from blossom to picking time and of a rigid selection when It is packed. Tbe fancy price received Is simply tbe result of the law of cause and effect. It doesn't come by chance. If ever there wns a husking season when the crop was calculated to tax human capacity and Ingenuity to get It under cover before heavy snows. It is the one Just begun. The total crop of the rmintrr U nnt at 3.000.000.000 bushels. while Individual farmers who thought they were going to bare fifty or sixty bushels "per Acj-e pre. confronted "with a yield 'oVirigity or ninety. Tbe corn picker has been perfected so that It doe very satisfactory work, and a tot of them will have to be pressed into service to handle tbe crop. Tiiat was a considerate as well as level headed housewife who rewarded tbe girl who bad been working for her with a birthday party as an evidence of her appreciation of tbe fact that tbe latter bad done her work well and faithfully and bad been kind to the children. If more of tis spirit were manifested by other mistresses of households there wonld be a lot less tronble In tbe matter of securing fe male help In tbe home and a good many less nds. In the weekly and dal ly papers under the bending "Olrl Wonted." ' Under the terms of tbe plant qnnran UPC Act passed by congress tbe past uinmcr an emlwrgo has been placed on tbe linjiortntlon of tatoes from Newfoundland and several European countries In order to prevent tho In troduction of the potato canker or black scab. Tbe Importation of po tatoes during tbe fiscal year closing June 30, 1012, from the countries af fected by this order totaled 12.fi83.710 bushels and valued at more than 10.000.000. It Is fortunnte for the American consumer that this order "omen nt a time when there is an nbuudnnt crop of the tubers. The residents of one Ohio town have tot tho right Idea about futiolrlilng n MonoK)ly. decently the egg dealers of the place decided Hint they would force up tho prlco of eggs. Tho ro uilt wns tbo formation of n boycott ignlnnt eggs In any form which was iiilo-ed Into by the 40.000 Inlmhltiinta if tho city. At Inst reports eggs wero ibout where they bad been nnd these irote'.tnnts were still eating beef nnd nukluir their cakes of shortening, lour nnd sugar. To be effective this 'myc-ott should spread until It covered i cotiHldcnible part of tho country. There would bo things doing then, and to mistake.
