Under this heading the Country Gentleman has an article tbat should bo of Interest to the Central Oregon farmers who are raisins hogs. Of course, hog raising cannot be done by the editors, but by the farmers, yet we believe that the editors can assist, In some small measure per haps, by giving space to matters re lating to this Important Industry. In this issue we arc printing an ar ticle written by Prof. Thomas Shaw, tho agricultural expert of one of the railroad lines, believing that what ho has to say will bo of Interest to a considerable number of our readers. The Country Gentleman says: "Throughout the states of the Pa cific Northwest farmers are being urged by Breakers and newspapers to go Into the hog business. But the man ho decides to jump at once from wheat to swine, and for this jiurpose Esthers together a nonde script lot of sows, Is altogether likely to fall. The farmer who undertakes to undertake in tho production of hogs should do so somewhat cau tiously and In a rather limited way, Instead of undertaking It on a large scalo and leaving off the things be has done and knows how to do. The actual advance In this Industry In the wheat regions will not take place by Jumping from one kind of farming to another, but by gradual movement. Two or three or four good brood sows will nearly always be the best for the average farmer. "Enormous crops of wheat are raised In the Pacific Northwest, and the farmers quite generally prefer this extensive cultivation to a more Intensive plan of farming. They are used to raising one crop on farms comprising hundreds, even thousands of acres, and to change to a diversi fied system of cropping la dlstaateful to them. Nevertheless it Is qaite generally admitted among them tbat the real future of these states lies in a division of the big farms into the smaller units. The movement In this direction Is decisive, and a prominent feat i) re Is the Introduction of the swine industry "The region is, beyond question, Ideal for the production of swine. Mild winters, with only moderate snowfall, are the rule, offering the advantage of a short feeding season. In auninier the days are not exces sively hot and invariably the nights are cool. Freedom from disease is quite general; In faot there has never been a widespread outbreak of hog cholera In Washington, Oregon or Idaho, "The altitude ranges from sea level to 2S00 or 3000 feet above exclud ing the high mountain ranges, of course and It follows that there are wide differences In soil, climatic en vironment and crop produotlon, ne cessitating different methods In the production of swine. In regions of moderate rainfall, say up to 1C In., winter wheat sown early iu Septem ber can be pastured In October and November. Where the prealpltatlon goes to 20 or 26 Inches, clover aud alfalfa are available as summer pas turago from April to November and even later. In the same sections kale and rape, planted in April or May, dan be used from June to De cember or later. Sometimes wheat is sown between the corn rows at tho last cultivation and w usod fur hog pasture. In September and November, "Among winter feuds to use In connection with grain, alfalfa is good. Carroty, turnlpu and beet aro excellent. The alfalfa may be fed either cut or unout; In tho former case It n found advantageous to soak is for twolvo hours and mix with whatever crushed grain la usod. Wheat can bo cither threshed or in tho bundle. Late In the fall, after tho alfalfa and clover cease to fur nish succulent feed,1 artichokes may i bo used to good advantage until tho ground freeres up. Aa soon na tho ground becomes soft In tho spring they aro agnln avnllnble, tho hogs doing their own harvesting. "Tho stubble Held offers much feed for swine. Heads ut whent nro missed by tho harvesting machines at turns or along fences; In fact, to one unusod to Such farming tho waMe on h big wheat plantation Is appal ling. Tho Btaek bottom, tho straw pile nnd tho orchard all offer thu hog a chance to fatten on foods which otherwise would bo allowed to go to waste, and In availing himself of these many opportunities tho hog Is indeed onja of the most efficient an! mats on the farm. "A prevalent method of swluo pro duction in the cereal belts of tho Pacific Northwest Is "hogging oft" tho crops. Winter wheat planted In September or October will bo ready for tho swIdo by the July following, and from then til) September, vlll furnish not only feed, but exercise. Another, plan" is to tow beardless bat ley In tho early spring. From tho middle of July till the beginning df winter It furnishes good feed. If another crop Is desired, field peas can be used, planting early in tho spring and turning the hogs Into them in July. Spring wheat would bo ready somewhat later In July, Corn planted In May should bo ready for the hogs by September. Blue bar ley sown early In the spring is allow ed to stand till tho fall rains hnvo softened it, aud furnishes feed for the late fall and for tho winter, too, unless tho snow gets deep, which does not gonornlly happen, "Tho uso of sonto succulent feed In connection with tho grain ration of tho swine Invariably reduces tho cost per pound of grntna In weight. Ono farmer of Haaturn Washington, who la a very successful producer of swluo, found It took llvo pounds of barley to produce a pound of grain. Combining barley with nil tho white French sugar becta thu hogs would clean up, ho found that two and n third pounds of barley gavo n pound of grain. In tho experience of far-, mora and in tho Investigations mudq by tho Washington Agricultural KxJ uerlmtNit, BJtUloii It Is Invariably JAi..l n.tif ti. f..iiillni- it mnta ni any succulent material Uiat tho pigs eat readily not only roduco tho amount of grain necessary, but seeing to lucreaso Us efllclency," ,l. as - Day by najS filon by step, business conditions Itro Improving. Tho apathy has been mostly duo to senti ment more of a atato of mind than mntter. Such an eminent authority as Dun's Trade Review says: "There aro further evidences of reviving business activity, with tho expansion In Industrial operations constltutng one of the best features of the situa tion. Somewhat leas complaint 1 now heard regarding labor conditions as the number of unemployed, white apparently still large, has been con siderably reduced of late. This ob viously enhances tho purchasing power of thu people and confidence In tho futuro In gradually strengthen Ing." In tho light of recent hnpinnlnga, this from tho Portland Orogonluu' ought to bo apropos Iu lleudt " 'Glvu iia good Sunday laws,' trnya n wrltor In tho llomlletlo Review, 'and our churches will bo full of worshipers,' That Is to any, people will go to church if the law compela thorn, whlrh Is probably true. Hut much butter would It bo to uuiko tho Bornion so wise, up to date and Inter esting that It would attract listeners without thu aid of tho law, Tho piety that can be legislated Into a person Is neither very gonulno nor vory lasting."
