Idaho Alfalfa Milling Company is a
corporation organized under the lav. ,
of Idaho and its principal place of
business is designated as Payette
The promoters of the enterprise are
Payette men. They are not presenting
it as a '
'Get rich quick" scheme but
as a legitimate enterprise for the de

The Live Stock industry has been
Eighty hard hit by the High Cost ot
Living and the "monkey shines" of '

a v'-'fent factor in eliminating waste |
and increasing efficiency. It is now j
well established that the feed value j
of alfalfa hay can be doubled by mill- !

to put in quite an extensive plant
at Payette, including feed yards. In
due time the plans will be laid be

and their co-operation sought. It is
a cinch that something will have to
be done to meet the changed condi

FARM BUREAU NOTES
The Feeders Day held recently at

ment station near Caldwell was a sue
ÇJBS 6 in every way. Over two hundred
people were present to visit the sta
tion and see the results of the 100
day steer feeding trial which
had
Ninety six steers were divided into
8 lots of 12 steers each and each lot
was led on a different ration,
results obtained give conclusive evi
dence of the economy of cut hay over
long hay in the feed lot and also
show that where silage alone or sil
age and grain are added to cut hay
that a distinct advantage is gained in
the finish on the steers.
In this trial Alfalfa hay was fig
ured at $16.25 per ton, corn silage
at $10 per ton and barley at $2.75
per hundred,
