Farmers, however, de siring to replant acreage sown to soil conserving or neutral crops lost by winter killing or drought must make application on official forms before May 1 and receive approval of the county committee it penalties are to be avoided. Under this plan il is possible to plant emergency forage crops such oats, barley, millet, Sudan grass, rape and annua I legumes, which would otherwise be classi fied as soil depleting. Arrange ments to plant the emergency crops mentioned will enable many farmers to replant acreage sown to oats and vetch and clover last fall which was winter killed with out increasing their soil depleting acres, as emergency crops planted on such acreage will be declared neutral. It is very important," slates County Agent Parker, "that every !

(AP) Fanners fucing an Invasion of grusshoppers this year leurned tboy may bu able to turn the pests Into a profit by acquiring a iloc-k of turkeys. A report to the agriculture de partment from the Pacific north west haid lund owners there had controlled tho grasshoppers by turning loose turltos, each of which gobbled up grasshoppers ut a rate of 500 to i,000 a day. C. A. Henderson, Klamath coun- ty ugent In Oregon, said grass hoppers caused an annual crop loss of 250,000 each year between 1920 and 1!)30, while land owners and government spent thommiuls o: dollar.-t for poitoned bait. In IIMH two men operating tur key ranches in Colorado brought o.SOO birds to the Mrasslioi-per in fested meadow lands and reclaimed lake bottoms. Henderson said this experiment proved turkeys were of major im portance In grusshopper control, Large landowners used, thousands ol the birds In succeeding years FOUR-H CLUB ACTIVITIES Tho 4-1 1 Local Lenders' associa tion is holding a meeting tomor row night at 7 : 4 "i in the music room of the Uoseburg junior high school.

But they also found some basis for the prejudice be cause of the tendency to apply too much concentrated food. Applica tions of chemical fertilizer high In nitrogen were as effective as ma nure, but heavy doses stunted the plants caused 'Something similar to indigestion from overeating of food too rich.
