Field tests have also been made to determine the tensile strength, resistance to in ternal pressure, and the prevlous ness of 40 kinds of concrete pipe now used in irrigation. These inves tigations have been prompted in part oy the high cost of iron and steel, which has greatly enlarged the de mand for concrete pipe to meet rigid conditions in irrigation systems, no tably where pressure pipe is needed to carry water under high heads. California alone now has more than 150 concrete pipe manufacturers, and concrete pipe is being laid at the rate of many hundred miles a year.

Millions Saved from Wild Beasts Taking the estimates of farmers and stockmen themselves, there has been saved to them during the past year not less than $5,000,000 from the hunting of predatory wild ani mals by the United States depart ment of Agriculture, In cooperation with the States. The work is done by the Bureau of Biological Surrey and such agencies as are designated by the various States. During the past fiscal year about 32,000 ild animals were killed under the direc tion of the Biological Survey by a force of between 400 and 600 skilled hunters. Indications are that still greater numbers were killed by pois oning, though no actual count could be made of animals thus destroyed. Extensive poisoning operations were conducted in the great sheep growing sections ot Arizona, Color, ado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. This was followed by a marked decrease in the number of coyotes, particularly with a corres ponding decrease in the losses of sheep, cattle, pigs, colts, and poul try. Stockmen say that on many important ranges not lambing grounds the former heavy annual losses have, become negligible or have been entirely eliminated. As an illustration, there is an area about 75 miles in diameter in test era Colorado where sheep owners formerly reported an average loss of about 25 sheep a day throughout the season. Poisoning operations have been conducted through two successive seasons. Destruction ot predatory animals has been so thor ough that sheep now range freely, sometimes unattended for several days in succession, without loss. Losses throughout the area are nominal.

THE PACIFIC COAST'S GREAT FUEL SUPPLY Industrial development, shipping and home comfort on the Pacific Coast are to a large extent depen dent on oil for fuel. There are no great deposits of coal in the Coast states, but Nature has given a com pensating advantage in the great oil fields of California. From these Oregon Farm Livestock Farm livestock of Oregon the kind of beet and dairy cattle and pouultry that has made the state known around the world, will receive a big share of the attention of farmers and college men at O.

Pearl Oil has become a most impor tant factor in the comfortable home life of the Pacific Coast. Public Auction MAMriSfvoiNt- Senator A. A.

Oregon Agricultural College, COR VALLIS, Dec, 24. Western red ce dar posts dipped in cresoto are the best for use on Oregon farms, asserts , II. S, Newins, technologist of the for estry department. "Western yew, juniper, lignam vi- I tae, and several other woods, he says, ; "will outlast cednr as fence posts but owing to their scarcity are not 1 of economic importance. Woods having resin well distributed throughout the cell structure, and woods of high specific gravity are most durable when in contact with the ground." Treatment of fence posts with cres- j sote ns a preservative is recommend, ed, as records show that the life of ! the post may be more than doubled by such treatment. Treatment is not expensive and may be performed at such time as will not Interfere with the other farm work. j Round posts that have been well saturated with preservative, points out Professor Newins, aro a little better than either sawed or split posts as lliey present loss surface 1 for the notion of decay organisms, and the absorption of the preserving liquid.
