CLUB
WORK
PROGRESSING.
The 4-H club work among the
girls is progressing under the lead
ership of Mrs. W. A. Hineline.
The We-Can-Cannlng club was
reorganized at a meeting held April
8, with the following officers elect
ed: Edith Clarke, president; Dorcas
Throop, vice president; and Mary
Rodda, secretary-treasurer. At the
present time eighteen girls have
joined.
In conjunction with the canning
club a cooking club called the
"Kookee” club was organized April
22, having an enrollment of eight.
Officers tor that club are: Edna
Turnblad, president; Helen Jendrze-
jewski, vice president; Margaret
Clarke, secretary-treasurer.
Joint meetings will be held every
two weeks and demonstrations by
both clubs will provide the main en-
tertainment feature, An added in
centive for each girl to do her best
work is provided this year. The two
girls doing the best demonstration
work during the summer will form
a demonstration team to represent
Hermiston at the state fair.
The next meeing will be held
May 6, at the home of Margaret and
Edith Clarke. At this meeting a dele
gate to the O. A. C. summer school
at Corvallis will be chosen.

Cull Poor Producing Cows.
There will undoubtedly be a de-
cided shortage of feed this coming
winter, in the Northwestern etatee,
due to the severe spring freeze.
Everything possible has been done
to supplement the feed supply, by
planting annual hay crops, and
many silos that have not been in
use will be used this winter.
There is every evidence that the
price of butterfat will not rise to
the extent that feed prices will. We
would like to urge our patrons to
consider these facts, and by utilis
ing the facilities of the cow testing
association, cull out their poorer
producers. Cows canot be culled oc
casionally by guessing which are the
beet producers.
There will probably be a glut of
dairy cows on the market as soon as
the feed shortage begins to be felt
this winter. It Is best to cull the
poor cows and nell your excess feed,
if you have any.

There will be three weeks be
tween meetings this time as grange

nights of each month, and there are

Some Forage Crops.
By A. D. Smith
This year, when so much of the
alfalfa is frozen out and many far
mers are being hard put towards
producing sufficient feed to carry
them through the winter, it will be
necessary to plant catch crops, such
as sudan cane, soybean and millet.
No one in our community has
done more investigating and experi
menting with such crops than Mr.
A. D. Smith, and I have asked him
to relate his experiences for our
members, knowing that Mr. Smith
is a careful and methodical inves
tigator and his conclusions can be
depended upon.
HENRY M. SOMMERER.
riety of kaffir corn has a sweet
stalk, and makes good feed, but the
one time I tried it, I did not get a
very good germination. I do not
konw whether this is characteristic
of it or not. Winter rye sowed now
will furnish a lot of pasture, but it
will not produce grain. If not pas
tured too closely, it will furnish
feed all season.
Corn is not usually classed as a
forage, but it produces a large
amount of feed when it does well.
Worms damaged it badly for me last
year. I planted Minnesota King as
a catch crop on June 17, and the
worms did not bother it. I do not
know now why. Last year I got
one of the heaviest yields ever pro
duced in the United States by plant
ing Iowa Double Cross Hybrid No.
13. The yield was 36 bushels ahead
of the man who took first at the
Chicago show. I tested it on 3 dif
ferent kinds of ground, using Idaho
white dent as a check, and it near
ly doubled the white dent. It re
quired the entire season to make its
growth. No double cross hybrid can
be used more than once for seed,
and for that reason there is no
chance to acclimate it. So far as I
know now, no state further west
than Dakota can furnish seed at the
present time. As it cannot be ac
climated by us here, it is necessary
to get seed from a locality with a
climate as near ours as possible. The
state of Iowa is divided into 3 zones
for corn growing purposes, and the
No. 13 corn is for the southern zone.
It might be better to get a variety
for the middle zone, if you have any
shorter season than Hermiston. The
different Iowa seed houses handle
hybrid seed corn. I got mine from
the state. but they are only sup
posed to furnish it to experimenters
in their own state. I have no seed
of any kind for sale.
Tests made by different persons
scattered throughout the United
State show that the feeding of fine
ly ground calcium carbonate at the
rate of one pound for 10 grown ani
mals per day will take the place of
legume hay when that Is not obtain-
able. This may be of special im
portance to many this winter on ac
count of the killing out of much
alfalfa. Cane and similar feed when
fed exclusively for long periods of
time will cause trouble because they
lack some elements that the legumes
contain. Calcium carbonate should
be very finely ground for this spe-
cial purpose."
