Farming Trend
In Wallowa And
Union Changing
In keeping with predictions made
j by agricultural authorities, ns well
I as following pleas made by them,
there la an Increasing tendency
'among farmers of this and Wallowa
, counties to get away from the.
' straight grain farming, according
I to G. V. Meek, of Wallowa, w ho
' also says that the straight grain
farming has In tho majority of
Instances not proved to be a paying
proposition during the past num
ber of years.
Tho change to other classc of
farming operations has been mark
ed by the I nc reuse in the number
of dairy cowa being kept on the
farms and towurd production of
more hogs, sheep and so on.
. Along with this change In meth
ods of farm management have
come problems which make neces
sary the planting of other crops
In order that the proper, kinds of
hay, pusturo etc may be had. This
condition has caused various farm
ers over the country to try some
experiments with such crop oh
sweet clover, dry laud alfalfa and
other gruses which provide a bet
ter class of summer pasture. Many
of these experiments have proven
highly satisfactory and according
to a considerable number of farm
ers, particularly In the dry farm
ing areas of the county, there will '
be considerable sending of sweet
clover and some dry laud alfalfa
this spring.
Truman Poulson of Promise, re
ports that ho himself and other '
farmers In his Bectlon havtv been '
fairly successful in gotting good
stands of Grimm alfalfa started on
their farms and that hay yields
from these plots have been very
good, It being possibln to get one
good cutting and a fairly good sec
ond crop In even dry years. He
snys they have found It better to
cut the first crop just as soon as
the first blossoms appear which
Is usually about the 20 of June
when the huy can bo taken orf the
ground, giving the new growth a
chance to benefit from tho heavy
rains which nearly always come
during the last of June or 1st of
July.
Sweet clover, where anything
liko good stands could be secured,
has proven a flno pasture crop on
the dry lands of this county. Sev
eral of tho dry land farmers In
this community state that they ex
pect to sow several acres of the
clover, on their farms this spring.
Among thoso who expect to seed a
considerable acreage are George
Tllton who Uvea In. the valley West
of Routine. However, sweet clover
Is not new to .Mr. Tllton us during
the puat two yeurs he has had
about lou acres of the crop on his
farm, preferring It to alfalfa, Mr.
Tllton sttys tliut he hus found by
Tecdlng both alfalfa and sweet
clover hay, slock will leave the al
falfa and clean up the sweet clover
first.
