THURSDAY. AUGUST 3. 1944 HERMISTON HERALD HERMISTON. OREGON. PAGE SIX The Hermiston Herald Find Cooked Cull Beans Good Feed for Hogs Published Every Thursday at Hermiston, Umatilla County, Oregon. Alfred Quiring and Leander Quiring, Publishers. Raw beans are unpalatable for hogs and should be cooked before feeding. Cooking not only increases the pala- tability but also increases the diges tibility. Good results have been obtained by feeding two parts of grain to one part of cooked cull beans. If the hogs are on dry lot feeding, add some animal protein, such as meat meal or skim milk, as weil as feeding from 5 to 10 per cent ground alfalfa, 1 per cent oyster shell and % per cent salt. Beans should be cooked separately and never cooked with the grain or any grain mixture. Other types of livestock, sttch as cattle or sheep, utilize beans quite well without cooking. In fact, cook ing does not add anything to their feeding value, but simply makes them more palatable for hogs. For best results in feeding beans to cattle or sheep, add from 15 to 20 per cent ground cull beans to a grain ration. Experiments have shown that each ton of cull beans is equiva- lent in feed value to over a ton of alfalfa and nearly a ton of barley. Feeding results will not be satisfac tory when beans are fed to either cattle or sheep in larger quanti ties than 15 or 20 per cent.

Case, Extension Nutritionist at Ore gon State college. The safety valve and petcock should be unscrewed each day that the cooker is used. Take them apart, wash and dry the parts and use care not to damage the area of the safety valve where the ball sits, by contact with metal instruments or harsh cleansers. The safety valve is no longer a safety valve if it is stuck up with grease and rust. ( First National Bank of Hermiston The second safety rule in using all pressure cookers is to have enough What Are We Going To Do For More Buildings? water in the cooker each time before using so that it will not boil dry and Day by day, good people are looking for three to cause damage. ‘If using a cooker with four room houses in Hermiston.

To keep the plants in pro duction long, they may need some straw for protection in freezing weather. A few plants may be put in a coldframe, if the gardener has one. A fence of chicken wire may be needed around the green plants, to keep out the rabbits.
