Demand for Seeds
Makes Profitable
Use of Fertilizer
The unlimited demand for most
kinds of Oregon grown forage
seeds this year will make profit
able the use of fertilizer to a con
siderable extent fin many of the
seed crops In Douglas county,
says J, Roland Parker, county
agent. The season for applying
these Is almost past, however,
hence prompt action will be
necessary where growers still
plan to use fertilizers.
Seed growers in Douglas coun
ty produce two different types
of seed that vary greatly In their
fertilizer needs, points out Mr.
Parker. ' Legumes, vetches, peas
and clovers generally respond to
landplast'er, and on some soils
give profitable returns from
phosphorous. The perennial
grasses and the annual Italian
rye grass respond chiefly to nitro
gen fertilizers.
Use of landplaster on legume
crops Is an established practice
throughout western Oregon. It
supplies sulphur, which is requir
ed in large quantities by all leg
umes. Landplaster Is aplled at a
minimum rate of 100.pou.nds per
acre as early In the season as
possible and will bo largely wast
ed if applied after the middle of
April. ; . ' -
Soils in this country vary con
siderably In their response to
phosphorous fertilizer. Profitable
returns are common on hill lands
and on some of the valley floor
soils. Phosphorous may be applied
as ordinary superphosphate, con
taining 20 per cent phosphorous,
at the rate of 300 pounds per
acre, or as the stronger 45 per
cent treble superphosphate at 125
pounds per acre. Phosphorous is
of little or no use if applied aft
er April 1.
Art King, extension specialist
in soils at O. S. C, reports that
established grass seed growers
throughout western Oregon have
found that use of nitrogen is
necessary to the continued pro
duction of perennial grasses and
seed. At present prices of Italian
rye grass seed, the use of nitro
gen on this crop Is also available.
Growers are getting the best re
sults by giving first-year peren
nial or Italian rye grass 20
pounds of nitrogen per acre,
which Is supplied by 100 pounds
of ammonium sulphate or tiO
pounds of . ammonium nitrate.
Older plantings get two or three
times this application. The earlier
application the better, but profit
able returns can be expected If It
is put on before April 10.
