Kfirrertlv. I believe I can saf elv pre
dict that the state of Washington will,
in the near future, become a great dairy
state. Even now the farmer who has a
few good cows and " tends to busi
ness,'' is never bankrupt. . He has in his
possession a certain producer of value.
With milk and butter he can go to
market twice a we,ek, instead of once a
year, and in many respects he is free
from the annoyances that harass the
wheat-growers. But there are some
things he must attend to if he would
mcceed. .
Many people there are, indeed.who
would not make 'even a bare living
handling cows. To use a familiar ex
pression, "They are not built that
way." Nevertheless, it is certainly
true that no matter how the farmer, is
built, the cow is built to yield value
quite material in kind.
Lack of pasturage is an objection
to dairying in many parts of eastern
Washington, of course, but where al
falfa or clover will grow this hind
rance can be overcome. And these
two valuable forage plants would grow
in many 'places where they are
not found at present, if the land
was properly fitted to receive the seed.
On' the experiment station farm we
have two fields of clover that have
given splendid returns. Both alfalfa
and clover - are valuable for feeding
COWS. '. '
' Farsighted dairymen now recognize
the fact that there is a better method of
feeding dairy cattle than by pasturing,
especially in regions where land is as
valuable as it is in Washington. This
is by the proper use of soiling crops,
and silos. A very indifferent mathe
matician can figure that one acre of
land well tilled and seeded to some kind
of a soiling crop will equal two ajid
one-half acrs of the best kind of pas
ture land for feeding dairy cows.
Therefore, even if one has enough land
to pasture a large herd of cows, it
would be unwise to do so. Every suc
cessful dairyman wishes his cow to do
the best and yield the best return pos
sible in consideration of 'the amount of
feed consumed - and care given. The
cow must have favorable surroundings.
She 'must not be permitted to roam all
day in search of food, even if requiring
only that necessary for a living, aside
from the 'production of milk. To give
a large amount of milk at night would
be contrary to nature.
The ' quicker you can get the cow
"filled up," the sooner she will lie
down and masticate her food. , I ven
ture to assert that when milking time
comes, if you have the right kind of a
cow, and are the right kind of a mas
ter, she will not disappoint you.
There are many different Kkinds of
crops that can be grown for, soiling
purposes. Winter rye, oats, barley and
oats, mixed, peas and oats, clover, and
vetch are some, of them. A few will
suffice. Gare, however, must be. taken
not to sow too much at one time, with
the exception of corn. That can be
planted in abundance, because as it ap
proaches maturity it continues to make
good feed.
We have grown at the college farm
two and one-half acres of peas and oats,
which are sown on a north slope, the
steepest, perhaps, on the farm, and from
this plot have harvested five and one
half tons of bay, in addition to having
pastured on the same plot for five
weeks a small herd of the experimental
farm cattle. This is an example of
what can be grown on a small tract
carefully tilled.
The farmer who undertakes to man
age a herd of cows under this system
must make ample provisions. One ne
cessity, of eourse, is a good stable.
This, without elaborate surrounding
can be built at a moderate cost. It
should be planned in a way which will
enable the farmer to feed ten acres of
good pasture to start off with in the
spring. His intention should be to use
this ten-acre tract for night pasture
after; he has commenced to feed the
cows in the stable. He will also need
a mower and a horse rake in the field
to lessen the labor . of cutting and
handling. ,. ,
For the purpose of winter dairying,
no up-to-clate man would be without a
silo. In this part of the state corn is
past the experimental stage. It always
matures on the college farm. The cows
are fed the year around, and do well.
always having an abundance of silage.J
j.uio pruceBB, in my opinion, largely
solves the pasture problem.
Naturally, questions arise relative to
the expense connected with the feed
ing of soiling crops. Over in Ontario,
which is without doubt , a dairy coun
try, soiling and the silo go hand in
hand. Every farmer there will tell you
that it would not be possible to keep
np the flow cf milk, in his herd without
resorting to these methods. If tbe silo
and soiling crops are necessary In a
country where, as a rule, ' they have
plenty of rainfall, how much greater is
the necessity for their use in parts of
the Pacific Northwest where rainfall is
not always sufficient!
The time is at hand when a radical
change of methods in farming is neces

PRUNING TREES.
Professor Thornber Tells How
to
Procure Best Results.
From Washington State College, Pullman.
In response to an inquiry from Sher
lock, Professor W. A. Thornber gave
the following discussion of pruning :
"When trees produce too much
wood, and not enough fruit, or no fruit
at all, it is well to prune them very
severely in the summer time, say
about June; also cut them back at
that time. This is to give the trees a
check, and make them produce fruit
buds, rather than wood. Here at the
station, in the case of young trees, we
do considerable early spring, or winter
pruning, ;m order to make the trees
produce large quantities of wood. We
are thoroughly convinced that it is
well for a young tree to produce large
quantities of wood, even though you
have to cut it out the following spring.
This extra growth gives a splendid
root development, and this is necessary
before you can secure a good tree. In
the case of trees that have been graft
ed, I would recommend that you re
move the suckers just as fast as the
scions seem able to take care of the
entire food supply. In cases where
the tree is a very rank grower, I fre
quently leave a few suckers around the
graft, so that the graft may become
hardened, and not make" such a soft
growth.
"Another good plan, at times feas
ible, is to keep an orchard in grass,
and check the growth somewhat in
that way. The western soils and an
excess of moisture are very conducive
to a heavy gnowth of wood; therefore
it is somewhat advisable to grow grass
in the orchard, with the idea of check
ing the growth in this way. Some of
our most successful applegrowers west
of the Cascades, make a practice of
growirg grass in their orchards to pre
vent the growth. The station does
not advise you to make use of any
kind of fertilizer whatever. A small
amount of potash would serve the pur
pose to make the trees more fruitful,
but under no conditions do we advise
the use of barnyard manure, or nitro
gen, since this would only exhilarate
the growth. In your locality, I think
you could grow the Gravenstein, North'
ern Spy, Rhode Island Greening, Jona
than, and probably the Golden Russets
very successfully. The station now
has specimens of these apples from
your locality, and they certainly show
up well."
A farmer residing near Larane - in
quired about the "common sorrel."
Professor Beattie replied:
"This is not an extremely serious
weed, although sometimes it does dam
age. If the sorrel has a tendency to
choke out the crop, it is an indication
that the land is rather deficient "In
available plant food. You could im
prove the condition of your region by
growing some crop of alfalfa, clover,
vetch or peas, and plow such crops un
der, as this would put humus, in. the
soil, and improve its condition. On
the West side,, this weed is very abund
ant in the worn-out soils, and the farm'
ers find it desirable to 'limethe soil,
to make more available plant food,"

When the blood is pure and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth, and
free from all blemishes and eruptions; but when some acid humor takes
root in the circulation, its presence is quickly manifested by some form of
skin disease. The skin Nreceives its necessary nourishment and strength
from the blood. When, however, this vital fluid becomes a humor-laden
stream, it can no longer preserve the healthy, natural appearance of the skin,
but by its acrid, impure nature continually irritates and inflames the delicate
tissues and fibres and keeps the cuticle in a diseased and disfigured condition.
External applications cannot reach the blood, and therefore are beneficial
only for their ability to Teduce inflammation, and assist in keeping the parts
clean. To cure any skin trouble the blood must be purified of the humors
that are causing the trouble, S. S. S. drives out the humors from the blood
so that the skin, instead of being irritated and diseased, is nourished by a
healthy, cooling stream. S. S. S. goes- down into , the circulation and
removes every particle of impure matter, all acids and humors, and restores
the blood to its normal, pure condition, thereby curing every form of skia
disease or affection. Book on skin diseases and any medical advice free to
