C. M. UAUMT2. OREGON, THE BANNER PHEAS ANT 8TATE What was wrong with tbe methods of those state that made a fizzle out i of pheasant farming? Oregon RUre shows they were wrong when her single pheasant farm In Bea ton county raised 5.000 handsome, hardy pheasants last season. The S"0 pheasant bens Inclosed there laid like Leghorns, shelling out sixty to eighty eggs apiece for the hatctrng season, mid after the laying stunt were turned loose, their winds pinioned, to roaiu the preserve at pleasure. Pheasants seldom hatch when cn j ned. so these eggs were given to chick ens to hatch, and when the little bird j enme out they were not mollycoddled at all. luit raised about the siitne us ! chicks j It was found necessary tbe first few weeks to feed "live food" bugs. I worms, larvae or a substitute in meat form, like tine ground fresh bone, i This makes blood, muscle, lioiie Later they were fed cracked wheat, corn and ground oats und picked up their protein on range, where they Photo by C. M Barnltz AS OI'.BGON l'HI ASA-NT need no shelter except the trees, weeds and brush, where they harbor summer and winter The majority of these u.OOO birds will be released all over the state, wherever they are guaranteed protec tion and care, and will breed in the wild next season, while at tbe farm sufficient breeders will be retained to raise thousands more, and thus Ore gon will ere long become a pheasant hunter's paradise. Some states failed with pheasants because they selected a variety nnsult ed to their climate, did not feed them correctly or turned them loose to pick up their own food In a region where there wus none. These should go to Oregon and get the know bow. Likewise those states that are busy batching bullfrog fry should drop tbe tadpole business and go to Oregon and learn to do some thing worth while. DON'TS. Don't get the habit of giving advice, especially to your mother in-law. Don't wait to the end of the year to find out whether your business pays A daily account tells the amount. Don't advertise with the idea that advertising will sell any old kind of goods. An advertisement calls atten tion to goods for sale, but If tbe goods are no good, of course you'll fall Don't equivocate nor exaggerate. These differ In name, but are about tbe same and bring one shame. Don't borrow trouble, nor your nelghlwr'a umbrella. Horrowlng oft brings sorrowing. Don't neglect to cultivate more brains each day. Brains, like chicks In ainbryo, need proper care or they don't grow So feed your think machine good, raw matter and you'll have bril liant thoughts to scatter. Don't let the rats and mice eft the profits. Tbe old alat corncrlb and mouse bole grain bio belong to tbe bughouse era. ffpilllti THK COLUMBIAN WYANDOTTI.

An egg generally brings a report from the interior department whence it comes. If It Is over or under si.ed. thin or soft shelled, long, peaked, ridged, flutteued, rough, yolk less, it be token some disorder of the ovary or oviduct, generally caused by overfat, brought on by feeding too much fat tener.

And now some of the poultry Jour nals are coming out against retouched photographs of roosters used in ndver tlslng Some people were fascinated by the fantastic, fancy pictures, but the majority know u real rooster when they see It und can't be caught by gold brick picture book Illustrations. A photo of the real is lint so ideal, and that's why so many humans squeal when the photographer makes them natural as life Fourteen per cent of a hen's egg Is protein, mostly round In the albumen: 14 per cent Is fat. mostly found In the yolk These are naturally balanced and you must balance your ration to get a balance on the right side of the egg record Mr .1 II London, superintendent of the Kleiuior conl mines.

The trap nest, which has no doubt been of great service In helping to de termine the liens that really aro the largest egg producers.

Professor Hedgecock. has been largely instrumental la arousing Interest In and In organizing one of the four cow testing associa tions of the county. A well known eastern poultryman in a recent address before the Con necticut Agricultural college recom mended the use of plain tallow as far superior to coal oil as a material for greasing the roosts for tho warding off of lice and mites, for the reason that one treatment a year would be effective, as the tallow does not evap orate as does kerosene. A very effective ss well as satisfac tory method of heating small bouses la by means of a bricked In atove place In the' cellar. Not only Is much dirt kept out of tbe living rooms In this way, but a maximum vatuo of fuel consumed Is realized. Besides this, a pretty plain stove can be used In tbe cellar, which wouldn't do at all were It to he scNn the parlor. The bog breeder who for several years has wo'j first prize on barrows at the International live slock show and who got first at tho recent show on an eighteen months' old pig weigh ing SK) pounds uses ollmeal exclusive ly to furnish tho protein needed to bal ance the grain rations which he gives his hogs.

The fowl was discovered by Pedro Nino, a Spaniard, ou tbe coast of Cu maim. north of Venezuela. In llti'.t, and the following year was taken to Spain. Turkeys were raised In large numbers by the Aztecs and other people of Mex ico and Central America. By l.'7 tur key had become tho accepted Christ mas dish of tlie English farm, and a half dozen years later was Introduced Into France. The farmers in (Iriint county. Wis., have inaugurated a plan for the co operative grinding of limestone that might well be followed ill other sec- i lions of the country where time U I needed for the sweetening of sour soils. The work Is being done under the direction of the State Agrlcul- j turn I college. A small portable outfit. consisting of engine and crusher, la being used, which can be readily trans ported from one neighborhood to an other. Large deposits of limestone beneath the surface soil make tho un dertaking a relatively simple one. It is not generally known that, when properly cooked, tho, sugar beet makes a palatable article of fosl for the ta ble. It contains from l." to 17 por cent of sugar, while the common red garden beet contains but from 10 to 12 per cent of sugar. Some one who has tried them suggest the following methods for cooking: Wash tho beets, but do not remove tho skin, leaving a portion of the top on so as to retain the juices. Cook in boiling water un til tender: then peel and quarter or cut into slices. Make u slice of melt ed butler, pepper anil salt, pour over beets and serve hot. In a certain county In Kansas they have beeu Improving some of the main roads, aud a farmer who uses one of these Improved highways la hauling his prisluce to market has figured out that he saves enough In one day's hauling to pay his share of the Increased road lax. Before the road was Improved he used to haol one load of fifty bushels of grain a day. Since the road has been Im proved ho has been able to haul twe loads of seventy-five bushels each. This would seem to be a simple yet forceful object lesson, showing the value of better country highways. It Is safe to assume that potato growers of the country will very gen erally supisirt the action of the fed eral horticultural board In placing on embargo on potatoes from Canada nnd those F.uropenn countries where the black wart und powdery scab have at tacked tho potato crop. There would be small advuntage coming to the con sumer if, to relieve somewhat tb high prices for potatoes prevailing for the present winter, diseased foreign tubers were admitted only In tbe end to contaminate American fields and re strict In a Urge measure tbe outpot of marketable potatoes, resulting In ft permanent advance In prices.

At least she didn't wish to. but she could Uot help IL '.M-cailse her teacher said a composition whs to le written. The little girl got out all her pencils and sharpened tlieiu carefully anil ruled neat margins down t lie side of her w pr; end then gave a great deep sign kcd out of the window. "I don't know what It HM elsiuL" I she said. Just as you and ewli other , child has said a hundivv! ttines. And her mother snld "Write about what yon see " "I so-- .lie .urn tree, salil ta tie girl, ''-.ii I can't write much about that Well, perhaps I can start with It " So she looked hard at the willow tree and wrote a line about how she loved It U-caiixe she bad always climb ed In It ever since tho beginning of time. And she wrote another line or two about how bright ttie leave look ed where Jlie sun loin bed t hem II nil how gray tbe lisiked in the shadow. hiiiI rbeii she told bow the wind Mindit t Iii-iii swsv like mug fringe. And she ! told about how dark the trunk was ' bin k of the leaves, mid how It bumped mil curiously in places where straight willow stalks shot up, and about the grasses that grew around the fisit. And she was Just finishing a iliserip tlon of how It looked In the rain when her mother, who had gone out. came back and asked, how the compo sition was getting on "Why. It Is all done." said the little girl "And I don't think I'll ever b afraid of eomiosltons any more Next time I'll write about the apple tree." The Blue Grotto. The Blue grotto Is a ruinous cave on the Island of Capri, near Naples. It is alsiut 170 feet long, 100 wide and 40 high, and Is reached from the sea by a narrow arch in the limestone t-lt rf. The water within resembles, ac cording to one eyewitness, "liquid sap phire" aud glitters with a 'il blue light. Walls and roof of tbe Blue grotto are ultramarine in color. The general blue tone of the place Is said to be caused by the relied Ion of the sun's rays In passing through tho water in the cave. The opening e" the gro. so ex ceedingly small that the '".! h'( enters must first pass through tlx- ou ters. A stay of at least twenty niluu'er uecessary to accustom oneself j light lu the Blue groito.
