Good Express Thanks For Support Portland, Nov. 15 (To the Edi tor)—We wish to thank you for the splendid service rendered the re publican party by your publication throughout the campaign just brought to a successful close. Newspapers of Oregon have done many effective things for the state and nation during previous cam paigns but none more worthy and effective than the work of helping elect Herbert Hoover and the re publican ticket. We regret that we were unable to vse more advertising space with you but finances would not permit, much to our regret. We firmly believe that you will always cherish the memory of the great work you did in helping elect Herbert Hoover. Very truly yours, Phil Metschan, Chairman. Cows Freshen Best In Fall Fall is the most advantageous time for the cow to freshen, winter the next best season, and spring and summer the least advantageous, according to dairy specialists of the U. S. department of agriculture. Cows that freshen in the fall rank For Fertilizer Do not throw away commercial feed stuffs that have spoiled; if they become moldy or otherwise unfit for feed, apply them to the soil. All commercial feeds make good fertilizers, and those rich in nitrogen, such as cottonseed meal, bran, and beef scraps, are especial ly valuable. High Grade Alfalfa Rain and snow do not improve the quality of alfalfa hay. Consid-, erable losses in the quality of al falfa from weathering, stack spot, or shattereed leaves, which occur in regions where the practice is to stack alfalfa and leave it exposed to the weather, could be avoided if it were baled at a favorable time and stored in sheds or warehouses until shipped, says the U. S. de- partment of agriculture. DR. HARRY A.

A well ventilated room protected from moisture and freezing is adequate, according to E. N. Bressman, as sociate professor of farm crops at the college. Open sheds have been used by many farmers with good results. Artificial heat can be used sat isfactorily, however, because it is best to remove the excess moisture from the corn as soon as possible, he pointed out. It has been found through experiments that corn with a large amount of moisture is sub ject to freezing and molding, which is avoided ordinarily where mois ture has been reduced to 10 or 12 per cent. Corn reduced to 10 per cent moisture will stand 190 de grees below zero, figures show. Logged-Off Land Given College For Research Corvallis, November 19.—To gain information to guide the state in arriving at a permanent reforesta tion policy on the 10 million acres of privately owned forest land in Oregon, John W. Boldgett of Grand Rapids, Mich , has just deeded to Oregon State college a 2400 acre tract of cut-over land near Kerry, in Columbia county. Mr. Blodgett has long been a prominent lumber man. both in his state and this. The tract will be divided up by the school of forestry and a part of it used as a field of study of natural reforestation, white other parts of it will be used for plant ing trees of various species known to do well in this country. Com parisons will be made of results gained from various treatments. Carl Holtz was a Friday visitor at the home of Grandpa McMullins.
