BY R. L. WOOLLEY
On Monday evening about 5:30
o’clock many calls began coming in
from our Echo, Nolin and Wheat-
land areas stating that serivce had
been interrupted. These calls show a
progress in the cooperation of mem
bers and that is an encouraging fac
tor. All of this inconvenience was
caused by negligence on the part of
one member. The inconvenience was
not the most important thing to be
considered, however. The important
thing is that when this person moved
his derrick so close to the high po
tential line that he took his life in
his hands and is very lucky indeed
that he is now alive to read about
or listen to the discussion of his act.
Now, this is the point to consider:
Be careful in and about these high
potential lines. Electricity, when
properly controlled, is a boon to the
human race, but when it is out of
control it is a relentless and destruc
tive force which will destroy man
and beast and burn property. Re
spect these high potential wires
and they will serve you. Treat them
otherwise and they will kill you. Re
member this also—you seldom, if
ever, get a second trial in mistreat
ing high potential wires.
This discourse is not intended to
frighten you at all but rather to in
form you so that you will take the
proper care, for your own protection
and the protection of others. Der
ricks above power lines are very
dangerous.
Our construction work in the city
of Boardman is rapidly nearing com
pletion. We will then be able to turn
our attention to other work on the
system.
Our water heater load is increas
ing very rapidly these days, almost
every day it seems, new ones are
being added. We are electric minded
and are taking advantage of our op
portunities. These things are making
us a much stronger organization and
we will be more and more able to do
the things which we should to carry
on to success.
Be sure that you do all that you
can to help yourself in this organi
zation. The annual meeting is sched
uled for August 10. Watch for fur
ther details.

“Thus far, the war has stimulated
industrial activities in this country,
giving domestic consumers increased
purchasing power,” says the report,
“but exports of farm products from
this country have decreased.”
The volume of exports of nearly
all United States agricultural pro
ducts, except cotton, has declined
since the war in Europe started, and
much uncertainty exists regarding
the duration and course of the war
and possible effects on domestic de
mand.
Great Britian and France have
pooled their buying operations under
complete government unified control
and are buying on the basis of ec
onomic warfare and diplomatic stra
tegy as well as to supply needs.
The dominion countries and South
America are supplying far greater
quantities of farm products than
during the World war, as production
has increased greatly during the
past 25 years and the capacity of
available shipping facilities is much
greater.
If the war continues for two or
three years, there may be some
shortage of farm products and a
large demand for industrial mater
ials for war. On the other hand,
early cessation of hostilities, or fair
ly ydefinit^ indications of an end of
the war within a year or less, would
affect the industrial and business
situation in this country adversely.

HOUSES ARRANGED
Increased Feed Cost.
If Oregon rural homemakers had
their way about the arrangements of
their houses, about half of them
would have one-story and half two-
story houses, four out of five would
have basements, and 90 per cent of
them would have stovewood stored
under the house roof
These are but a few facts obtained
in a study made by Maud Wilson,
home economist of the O.S.C. ex
periment station, the results of
which have just been published as
station bulletin No. 369, entitled
“House Planning Ideas of Oregon
Rural Women.” Laura Wells is co
author.
In order to find out the idea of
Oregon homemakers based on actual
experience, a survey was made, by
means of questionnaires, of 450
homemakers throughout the state.
About 60 per cent of these actually
lived on farms, while the remainder
lived in villages, suburban areas, or
on small acreages. For the most part
homemakers submitting answers to
the questionnaire were members of
extension units in the various coun
ties, and 99 out of 450 were gradu
ates of the school of home economics
at Oregon state college.
Some of their conclusions varied
considerably from those of the pro
fessional builders. Although most of
the homemakers queried prefer sep
arate dining rooms, they also want
the kitchen to be large enough for
use in serving family meals comfor
tably. Furthermore, the women ques
tioned are not in favor of a combin
ation dining and living room. Only
one woman in eight favored such
combination. Outdoor ,dining areas,,
on the other hand, are popular, both
for family meals and for feeding
crews of farm help.
As to sleeping arrangements, 99
per cent of the homemakers said
they wanted their own bedrooms on
the first floor. A second bedroom on
that floor is desired by many of
those whose children are young.
The bulletin, which may be had
free from extension offices, also dis
cusses preferences with respect to
washrooms, laundries, room dimen
sions, fireplaces, floor coverings, and
many other features of the rural
home.

Even though they may consume
more feed each year, high produc
ing cows enrolled in dairy herd im
provement associations yield great
er returns over feed costs than low
producers, according to records at
the New Jersey college of agricul
ture.
The average D. H. I. A. cow in
the U. S. produces 7,831 pounds of
milk and 317 pounds of butterfat a
year as compared to an average
production of only 4,359 pounds of
milk and 170 pounds of butterfat for
all cows milking in the United
States.
Association cows not only produce
more milk and butterfat on the
average than all cows milked in the
country, but they also produce it
more economically.
The associa
tion cows which produced at the
same average rate as all cows con
sumed approximately $53 worth of
feed per cow and returned $38 above
cost of feed to the owner. How
ever, the average association cow
producing 317 pounds of fat con
sumed $71 worth of feed and made
a return of $98 above cost of feed.
In other words, the cows that aver
aged 170 pounds of fat consumed
$1.22 worth of feed for every 100
pounds of milk they produced, while
cows that averaged 317 pounds fat
consumed only 91 cents worth of feed
for every 100 pounds of milk pro
duced.
The same relationship exists be
tween low and high producing herds.
Dairymen with herds having an
average production of 395 pounds fat
per cow received $120 above feed
costs while dairymen with herds
having an average of 206 pounds of
fat received only $53 above feed
costs per cow. Stated in another
way, a dairyman would need to keep
only half as many cows if they aver
aged 395 pounds, to obtain the same
return as he received with 206-pound
cows—just half as many cows to
milk and feed to realize approxi
mately the same return over feed
cost.
Fence Posts Require
Chemical Preservatives
With the annual replacement of
posts required each year, it is easy
to understand why many farmers
inquire about giving chemical treat
ment to their fence posts to make
them last longer. There are two
principal types of treatment which
have been developed; namely, the
tar or creosote method, applied by
dipping or submerging well seasoned
posts into hot creosote; and the rela
tively new method of applying a zinc
poison to freshly cut posts, using
the natural process of sap move
ment to absorb the poison into the
wood.
The zinc poison is proving very
practical for farmers with wood
lands containing willow, poplar, ash,
basswood, and soft maple trees of
ccrdwood size; yet this tire-tube
method of treatment, as it is called,
will work well on trees of almost
any species.
The preservative used in the tire-
tube method is known as zinc chlo
ride. It is extremely poisonous to
insects as well as to rotting fungi,
but it has one weakness—it slowly
dissolves and is carried out of the
post by rain and ground water; yet
if it is properly applied, it will add
manv years to the life of even such
fast rotting woods as cottonwood
and aspen or poplar.
The posts to be treated must be
strictly fresh and green, and the
bark must be left on. Dried or split
posts will not take the chemical by
this method. Posts from four to six
inches in diameter at the small end
are most easily treated.
American railroads report that
most grade crossing accidents oc
curred in 1937 between five and six
p. m. on Saturday, which is a good
thing for farmers to bear in mind.
