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.

RULES ON FOOD
PRESERVATION
By Lulu Eamheart
Homemakers need nut be afraid of
pressure cookers if they understand a
few simple safety rules, says Lucy A.
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.

Kale and brussels sprouts are
among the hardy vegetables that
may continue to provide fresh
greens until well into December, or
even later, if early winter weather
is mild. 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,
