If these lambs were fattened it home on local wheat, 1,000,000 jushels of Lhe northwest’s annual 10,000,000 bushel grain surplus ?ould be utilized. Other types of .ivestock could use even more. Since world wheat prices have lroppod during late years as a re- ,ult of over production, the Oregon fate college experiment station nas attempted to find other chan nels through which Oregon wheat powers can market their grain. When properly handled, wheat has oeen found Vo' be just as good as •orn, or for that matter any other ^rain, for livestock fattening. A forthcoming bulle.in, written by E. L. Potter, chief of the tdiv- ;ion of agricultural economics, and H. A. Lindgren, extension animal lusbandman at Oregon Sta.e col lege, discusses the possibilities of using wheat as a livestock feed. From the reults shown in .he pub lication, wheat, as a fattener, can be used advantageously in live stock produl.ion in Oregon. - Each year Oregon feeder lamb?)* xre shipped to the mid-west corn belt for several weeks intensive feeding ibefore they are sent on lo markets. The experiments were aimed at finding a way to elimi nate this Cep in the route to mark et and definitely favorable r. suits have been obtained with wheat in feeding prpjeCs. - Thousands of cattle make the same trip each year to the corn belt st.Ces for fattening, although wheat can be used successfully to fatten cattle. The aiChors of the bulletin also have an eye on the probability of an increase in the swine popula.ion in the state, slhce the far west is an importing area from the mid-west.
