head of strong serviceable bulls two
to five years old on the range with
each 100 cows will bring a calf
branding of over 85 per cent at a
bull cost of approximately only $1.6?
per cow. In fact, such has been my
experience in over 20 years running
stock cattle on an unfenced rannge,
as I raised 85 per cent of calves. I
know more than one ranch in Lake
county, Oregon, that always sells 30
month old steers that wigh more
than 1050 pounds each. Six service
able bulls to 100 cows when in a
field not too large or mountainous,
should bring a calf branding of over
90 per cent. I am getting 90 per
c(ent of calves from Hereford cows
in fenced fields with six servicea
ble bulls to 100 cows
"The need of ten serviceable bulls
to 100 cows, when on an unfenced
range, is to provide a sufficient num
ber of bulls that the many little
bands of eight to ten cows that be
come isolated on the range during
the summer and remain in somo re
mote spot by themselves shall be ac
commodated by a bull.

of Canyon City and well known
throughout eastern Oregon, died in
a hospital at Prairie City Sunday,
May 13, following an operation for
appendicitis when he failed to rally
from the anesthetic. Mr. Marks was
a 32nd degree Mason and was well
known throughout the state. Ho is
survived by his widow, one daugh
ter, Virginia, and three sons, Harold,
Paul and Eugene, all of whom were
with him at the time of his death.
His funeral was held at Baker Wed
nesday, May 16.
Mrs. Mary Case Vann, well known
contralto singer, Uf Portland, and
her husband, J. S. Vann, who is
eually well known as a pianist and
pipe organist, who have been in
New York for several months study
ing their art under some of the best
teachers, are returning from the east
soon and have arranged to stop off
at Heppner to visit Mrs. Vann's
brother, M. L. Case, and sister and
sister-in-law, Miss Harriet Case and
Mrs. May Case. While here It has
been arranged for them to give a

"Remember, the bull is halt tho
herd; a cow produces only one indi
vidual a year, while a serviceable
bull produces many individuals One
bull too many may mean a loss of
$16.75 a year on his depreciation,
while one bull less than required
may moan a loss of $200 a year in
a shortage of calvos produced.
"Buy only purebred bulls and if
possible inspect their sires and dams
before you buy, as like begets like.
A small bone grade bull may pro
duce many calves, but they will not
have tho large conformation and
weight produced by a large bone
purebred sire." Oregonian.

STOCK MAX GIVES TIP
How it is possible for torkraiKTB
now operating at a loss to change
the balance over to the other Bide
of the ledger and create a margin
of profit is outlined by W. D. Duke,
practical stockraiser himself. Mr
Duko suggests tho creation of the
profit by increasing the percentage
of the herd increase each year and
also tho weight of the fattened ani
mals. He refers to recent cost pro
duction data compiled by the three
livestock associations of Lake coun
ty which placed the cost of rasing
a cow or steer to marketable age at
$65.85. Based on tho ordinary 65
per cent calf crop he shows that this
means an average loss of $14.85 for
raising a cow or steer.
"Although the Lake county cattle
raisers' estimated cost of producing
a 30-months-old cow or steer shows
approximately a loss of $14.85 per
head on such production, I am con
fident that those men can arrange
their cattle raising In a way that will
stop loss on production and show a
possibility of margin of profit," said
Mr Duke.
"The conditions necessary to stop
loss would be to ralo an 85 per
cent calf crop and a well-bred beef
steer that will welh 1050 pounds
when marketed at 30 months old,
and sell Htock cow with calf at side
to bring as mych money as possible,
though, of course, all barren cows
would be fat and should be sold for
beef.
"My estimate for correction of loss
is as follows:
Cost care of one cow one
year, October to October.. $ 23.27
Cost care 100 cows one year
October to October 2327.00
Cost per calf, if raised 85
per cent calf crop........ 27.37
Cost care of calf until one
year old ..... 12.89
Cost care yearling until 30
months old 17.16
