With Green Pasture
An interview with Dr. J. N. Shaw,
county veterinarian, this week, brings
out the following points of interest
to the dairymen of this county:
In the past few years, a great ma­
ny articles dealing with the subject
of mineral for stock have appeared in
leading farm papers of the nation,
and dairymen have been led to be­
lieve that the question of mineral for
their stock is of some importance.
There can be no question as to the
importance of mineral as far as the
dairy cattle of this county are con­
cerned, because of the investigations
carried on by some*of the investiga­
ted* at our experiment stations, dis-
» closing the need of the addition of a
mineral to the ration of dairy cows
tn certain parts of the country. Com­
mercial concerns have put on the mar­
ket several products which are sup­
posed to meet the needs of cattle
receiving a mineral deficiency in their
diet. Most of these products are fair­
ly successful in their purpose, but
are rather expensive. The question
arises as to whether or not the cows
of Tillamook county really need a
mineral supplement. It is the opin­
ion of the county veterinarian that
the cows of Tillamook county would
have fewer ailments, and would give
a greater quantity of milk, if a min­
eral of the right kind could be added
to their rations. It is a known fact
that the soils of this county are quite
acid. This acidity is due to a lack
of mineral. If the mineral is not
present in the soil, it cannot be pres­
ent in the plant life. Some of our
hays are especially high in the es­
sential minerals, especially alfalfa
and clover. Some of our cows in this
county have little opportunity to eat
alfalfa and clover hay, and depend
upon the native hay entirely. It has
been proven and is an oft quoted fact
that animals will die more quickly
on a mineral diet than they will if not
fed at all. Some of the conditions
which are ti ought to be indications
this
of a lack of mineral, so far
county is concerned, are:
First, paralysis. A great many
dairy cows become paralyzed before,
is
or shortly after calving. This
thought to be due to the robbing of
the cow's own tissues of the minerals
nece.-sary for the structure of the new
individual.. Then again, we find high
producing cows who become lame and
stiff without any apparent cause. The
use of a mineral supplement is sup­
posed to overcome a great many dis­
ease« that the diary cow suffers from.
The word “supposed” is used, because
it has not been definitely proven that
the above statement is a fact.
An effort has been made to determ­
ine if possible, just what mineral
would be most practical for the cows
of Tillamook county. Letters were
written to Dr. E. B. Forbes, director
of the institute of Animal Nutrition,

LOGGER ROBS FRIEND;
IS FINED BY COURT
Alfred Newlin, who quit a job at
one of the sawmills last Saturday, oc­
cupied a room Saturday night with a
fellow logger named Mike Kanary.
Unlike the bird for which he «as
named, Kanary was not up to meet
the sun, with a song in his bill, but
slept sound and late. Newlin, how­
ever, was up early and frisked hia
companion's pocket taking $10 in cur­
rency. He did not pause to say good
bye to his room mate, but quietly hit
the highway for the outside. In the
meantime Kanary awoke, but instead
of singing blithely, he turned, he
turned his pockets wrong side out and
swore, and then hunted up the sheriff
who overtook Newlin at Dolph. The
sheriff was accompanied by the bereft
Kanary, who identified the thief. As
they came up with Newlin, the lat­
ter handed the $16 bill to Kanary,
with the remark: “There’s your mon­
ey, and I'm done with you.’ A fight
seemed imminent, but the sheriff in­
terfered and took Newlin into custody
On Monday, Newlin pleaded guilty to
petit larceny and was fined $25 by
the justice of the peace and in lieu of
the required money, he is now enjoy­
ing a life of lonely loafing in the
county jail.
