John Michaels of Cedar Creek ridge sent two monster turnips to the Gazette office, where thev are now on exhibition. They were raised in the splendid soil on that ridge and their size and appear ance are truly remarkable. Turnips wouldn't be a very profitable crop on Cedar Creek ridge because so few could grow on an acre. It is said they have to slice them in that country with a cross cut saw and split the slabs with an ax in order to reduce them in size sufficiently to cook them for food. H. Munsterman, a former resid ent of Potlatch ridge, writes from Paradise, Cal., as follows: "I notice a few weeks ago in the Gaz ette, a letter from Mr. Oldfield, writing from Chico, Cal., saying they had been out to their orange grove. As we are only 14 miles from Chico, living on our thirty acre oilve and orchard tract, would be pleased to know the address of Mr. Oldfield and would call on him for a chat." Mr. Oldfield's address is 1173 S. Broad, Chico, Cal. Rev. Gregory left Tuesday for Newburg, Oregon, where he has business interests that require his attention.

(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Scarcity of beef scrap, together with Its high price, has led poultry special ists of the United States department of agriculture to conduct feeding tests with laying hens in which cheaper and more plentiful kinds of protein feed, are tried. In these tests feeds rich in vegetable protein have been used in connection with beef scrap to make up the laying ration. One pen of hens, 'fed a mush con taining 20 per cent beef scrap, pro duced the greatest number of eggs, but a second pen, fed a mush consist ing of 10 per cent peanut meal and 10 per cent beef scrap, produced an average of only 10 eggs less during the test period of 5% winter months. Mashes made with soy-bean meal, cot tonseed meal, and velvet-bean meal, in combination with beef scrap, have been fed with fairly satisfactory re sults. PLAN FOR POULTRY SUCCESS Suggestions Sent Out From Washing ton for Benefit of Practical 1 Chicken Grower. Government poultrymen are appeal ing to the American people, both in the country and in the cities, to increase poultry production as much as possi ble. The following nine suggestions have been offered as a means to attain ing this end : 1. Keep better poultry; standard bred poultry improves the quality and increases production. 2. Select healthy, vigorous breeders to produce strong chicks. 3. Hnteh early to produce fall and winter layers. 4. Preserve eggs when cheap for home use. 5. Produce infertile eggs, except for hatching. 6. Cull the flocks to eliminate un profitable producers. 7. Keep a small back-yard flocjt to supply the family table. 8. Grow as much of your poultry feed as possible. 9. Eat more poultry and eggs to con serve the meat supply. sifis PULLETS FOR WINTER LAYERS Weight of Fowl Is Sometimes Good Indication of Future Egg Pro ducer-Use Scales. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Poultry keepers may plan to hatch all their pullets early, but it always happens that a good many pullets are not nearly grown in September, or even by the first of November. Obvi ously these will never 'make early winter layers. They may make profit able layers, though not likely to pay as well as the earlier-hatched hens. With the age of the undersized pullets known, and by the use of the scales, it is a simple mntter at this season to cull out those that It will not pay to feed through the fall and early winter, unless waste feeds are so abundant that no feed need be bought (or any of the poultry stock. A Plymouth Rock pullet that is five months old in the early part of Sep tember and weighs less than four pounds Is not promising material for a winter lnyer ; a Wyandotte or Rhode Island Red pullet that is five months Early-Hatched Mature Pullet. fid at this season and weighs under :hree pounds is not a desirable bird :o keep ; a Leghorn that is four nonths old and weighs less than two rounds should also be classed as a mil and used for the table. Birds hav ng these weights with less age are lesirable In proportion to their age. Many poultry keepers who do not nark their chicks when batched and et broods of different ages run to ;ether in the growing season cannot :ell the age of a pullet with certainty n the fall, and take it for grunted hat small birds are the later lotc' ed. Tills error leads to the hold ng i m.-.ny pullets which, if their n\a age were known, would be dis aiïlïed for poultry. Have Wandering Spirit. The young turkeys have a wandering -pirlt, characteristic of their kind, so >e sure that the coop is tight around the bottom so they cannot get out and •vander away from their mother. o o W v o' Attention!
