Tiile lake Farm Advisor Ken Baiihoil. has dvlsrd that the deep litter proiiram sliould have some prompt attention. 1. Litter should be built up from 13 to 16 Inches for best results. J. Take out the caked Utter that usually .occurs around the feeders and watcrers. 3. Keep the litter stirred and sep arated. . . 4. Ventilate the house so as to drive the moisture out. The Job of ventilation Is a most Important one because It the Inter ts kept reasonably dry. It elimin ates most of the other work that it ordinarily takes to maintain a good deep litter program. Venltl ators tn the top of the building, cross ventilation from side, front and back, and under the roosts Process Recovers Straw The spraying of molasses or mo lasses and urea (proniol) on fields of alside straw, barley straw, and other varieties of roughage feeds will probably provide an economi cal method of feeding cattle this year in the Tulelake Basin, says Ken Baghott, farm advisor. This feeding method has proven profitable in the past by enabling farmers to improve palatabiliiy and consumption of low quality roughage, and provide livestock witli a concentrate supplement. This method also has the advan tage of recovering unpalatable nat ural forage that otherwise would be lost. The economy of feeding in this manner is important in view of the labor saving it in volves, and also important is the food value of low quality roughage. Experience has proven that fields are well cleaned of all roughage. Experience has proved that fields are well cleaned of all roughage when eprayed with promol or mo lasses, and that there is little or no loss through trampling or scat tering. The farm advisor mentions that Promol contains an economical source of protein, and is guaran teed to contain not less than 3 per cent protein equivalent. Tests have shown that urea may be ef fectively utilised when the ration contains adequate amounts of good quality carbohydrates, or nigh grade forage crops. The optimum amount of urea in any protein supplement for direct feeding Is Lodge Pole Hardboards Foreseen ' Using lodgepole pine for manu acture of hard boards and veneers has tremendous possibilities, ac cording to Karl Bollerslev, wood technologist at the Oregon Forest Products laboratory. - Preliminary studies at the lab oratory have produced a lodgepole pine bard board that is at least equal in strength to. Douglas-fir boards. Lodgepole pine boards are noticeable hght colored. Including bark in the fiber hardly changes the hardboards color, Bollerslev aid. Tnis would be a third major use of lodzeDole nine Since it ts a small tree its uses are somewhat limited. Lodgepole pine is now mainly used lor lumber and pulp wood, Bollerslev continued. In Oregon, there are more than 1.250.000 acres of lodgepole pine, containing 800.000.000. board feel ol lumber. This is a large enough amount to insure an adequate sup ply for lodgepole-using industries. Laboratory research on making lodgepole pine hardboards has been by the dry process method. The waterless method would be more desirable In Eastern and Cen tral Oregon regions where the w ter supply is limited, Bollerslev added. . In another exploratory study, the laboratory, which is located on the Oregon biale college campus, has tested the peeling characteristics 01 smau-iog lodgepole pine. Boner slev found it preferable to heat the logs in boiling water before peel lng to satisiactorily soften the hard knots. A major obstacle In peeling loogepole pine lor veneer is the mechanical difficulty in feeding the lathe with small logs. Lathe-peeled jIodgepole-'pine presents a veneer rwita a . -straigiil-row knot pattern. Either this can be used as a nat ural veneer design like knotty pine or the symmetrical-knot row can be clipped out for clear veneers. Lodgepole pine studies have been undertaken at the request of three Bend groups. Similar studies will be extended to white fir, ponderosa pine, hemlock and several hard wood species. Including alder. TAJ MAHAL BEING REPAIRED . AGRA, India Wl They're repair ing the Taj Mahal, India's 320 year old architectural gem. Offi cials announced that the govern ment' has already spent 1712,470 to repair pillars and walls spoiled by rainwater. Planned repair work won't end until 1954. The Emperor Shah Jehan built the Taj in gleam ing marble as a monument of his love or Mumtas Mahal. Roof leaks were first discovered In the Taj in 19M. . about three per cent. Baghott says that because of its high concentration and the unde sirabilitv of excessive ingestion by the animal, urea must be blended with other feedstuifs before feed ing. The paunches of ruminants, such as sheep snd cattle, teem with micro-organisms which can use nonprotein nitrogen for their growth and multiplication. The mi crobes from the rumen, when cul tured, washed, and fed as a source of protein, were found to be di gested and to have good biological value. Feeding promol could be a very cheap source ot protein, ior 1-7 pound of urea contains the ni-1 trate equivalent to 1 pound of cot- i ton seed cake. Using approximately current prices, five cents worth of cotton-1 seed cake mignt oe replaced oy 7-10 cents worth of urea. The urea, however, has no energy value, and to maintain the same digestible nutrient intake, and rate of gain, as when one pound of cake is fed the addition of one pound of barley would be advisable. The combination of urea with molasses as a cheaper source of energy might be more favorable under Tulelake conditions, being sere favorable CvCECrnlcslly, as well as providing a safe and pala table vehicle for feeding urea. It also favors bacterial activity In the rumen. Farmers in the Tulelake Basin who have alsike clover straw, or barley straw may find it deslreable to spray promol on these low grade feeds. Due to the surpjus amount of molasses in the U. 6.. the price of molasses and promol is considerable below most feed concentrates. The farm advisor Is encouraging fanners to save by making the most use of this low grade rough age. and to improve the roughage quality by the use of promol and molasses spraying on roughage Drior to feeding. Such prices as these will enable farmers to save considerably and to have better quality feed. Prices of this pro duct delivered to Tulelake varies from S18.ll per short ton may be obtained in small amounts, wmie it is M.0S per short ton in quan tities of 20 tons.
