Farm Pointer*
Seed strain is one of the most im
portant factor* in securing solid
heads of late cabbage in Oregon is
the finding of the experiment station.
Another important factor is a good
moisture content in the soil during
the dry summer months, Fertilizers
have little or no effect on the solidity
of the head.
A grain binder or other farm im
plement left in a fence corner may
not be a sign of a shiftless farmer.
The binder may be out of date and of
no use but successful Oregon farmers
do not like to give the appearance of
shiftlessness. They think it is better

Conditiens are favorable for a sea
son of little smut next year in the Or
egon wheat belt. There have been
abundant early fall rains to bring
down the smut epores from the air
and farmers generally have used the
copper carbonate treatment. Where
the summer fallow has been rained on
for a week or ten days before plant
ing and the *eed has been well treated
the experiment station finds that the
smut is usually brought under control
completely.
Carrots are fed to laying hens by
many successful Oregon poultrymen.
They are high in vitamines and tend
to keep the hens busy. The general
practice is to hang the carrots about
the chicken house at a convenient
height.

Moon Farming
Moon farming, according
to the
Weather Bureau, is “moonshine.** It
has absolutely no »upport from any
scientific point of view By "moon
farming” ia meant »owing or reap
ing. breeding or butchering, shingling
or shearing, or any other farm ac-1
tivities suppos«id to be affected by th«’
"dark" or the “light” or some other
phase of the moon. The chief things
affecting the growth of crops at any
stage are:
Temperature and mois
ture conditions of soil and air; compo
sition of adjacent atmosphere; kind
and intensity of light; presence, or
absence, and severity, of plant dis

loose or compact; fertility of the soil,
