OSC BULLETTIN ON POULTRY HOUSING AGAIN AVAILABLE One of the most popular exten sion bulletins at Oregon State col lege that dealing with poultry housing has been re-issued and is now available for distribution, after former supplies were temporarily exhausted. The bulletin contains sketch plans and specifications for a considerable number of poultry house units found practical here in Oregon. Plans are included for laying houses and for a 25-hen house. Plans are also given for home construction of many types and devices, including mash troughs, nests, water devices, liquid milk feeders, litter carriers, dropping boards, green feed hoppers, wire porches, ventilators and electric wiring. One section of the bulletin deals with the control of wet litter by floor heating and shows several plans for this and results that have been achieved. A good poultry house is one which provides com fortable surroundings in which fowls may be kept in an economical and convenient manner, according to the authors, F. L. Knowlton, H. E. Cosby and F. E. Price. Sister Visits— Mrs. William Otto of Susanville, Cal., is visiting at the Fred Fisher home in Apple Valley. OREGON STATE COLLEGE—A piece of wool dress material, almost as sheer and soft as silk, had wom en of the Oregon State grange con vention “oh’ing and ah'ing" as they crowded around to feel as well as see. The piece of fabric was a yard from the bolt of cloth used in making the gown presented to Queen Elizabeth of England and worn by her when she arrived In Washington, D. C. The dress was a gift from the wool growers of the United States. The sample was shown here by R. A. Ward, manager of the Pacific Wool Growerss’ Co operative. CURRY SHEEPMEN FORM CO-OP POOL GOLD BEACH — Curry county sheepmen arranged to market close to a quarter of a million pounds of their wool under a co-operative pooling plan, reports County Agent R. M. Knox, who assisted in getting them together to work out a pro gram. Care of the wool at shearing time to insure highest quality pos sible is being emphasized. Sheepmen who have been work ing with Oregon State college vet erinarians in the control of a ser ious disease now being studied here, report material benefit from the use of the English serum as com pared with other treatment or no treatment at all.

It is not a very good policy to work with them when it is too cold for them to fly as it will not only chill the brood but will also make them cross. However sometimes a hive seems to be naturally cross and the time aird way to get them over this con dition is to kill the queen and give thenr a new one. There are also some strains th&t are naturally cross and the way to get over this condition Is to quit that strain. All in all bees handled with care and with good equipment are not very apt to sting. They have many traits like humans in the way they are handled. Handle them mean and all they know is to retaliate. We will be glad to handle any garments you wish stored. We store our garments at Baird’s in Boise where they are fully insured. Here is the small Combine that brings Y O U all the advantages of the Combine Method — THE OLIVER GRAIN MASTER 6 There is no longer any question about the fact that the combine is the fastest, easiest way to harvest your crops. There is no argument that it ends the heavy labor of threshing time in the fields and in the kitchen. Nor is there any question of the ability of the combine to meet all conditions, as the Grain Master Model 6 has operated success fully in a wide variety of crops in practically every grain produc ing section. The Grain Master Model 6 is a 6-foot power take-off driven machine (or with motor drive if wanted), operated by one man from the tractor seat. ft is the biggest little combine value on the market today. ( !oine in and see us about the Grain Master. There is no reason now why you should not buy a combine, and free yourself and your wife from the hard labor of threshing time.
