v - 16 TTTR SfOTTXTXtt OttTCGONIAX, MONDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1920 -SILAGE UNAFFECTED " BY RECENT BAINS Wo Water Needed Now, Says Farm Expert. HOW TO TEST EXPLAINED Corn and Santlowers In Valley and Coast Districts Likely to Be Good This Year. Methods of putting -up silage' tliis fall are not modified by the extreme ly wet weather, except that no water will have to be added unless the crop has been frosted or grown under dry farm conditions, said G. R. Hyslop, head of farm crops at the Oregon Agricultural college experiment sta tion. There is no convenient way to tell whether water should be added ex cept by squeezing a handful in the palm of the hand," he explained. "If the silage thus tested gives out water on this pressure no more is needed. If the plant surface -remains dry and the squeezed ball rebounds on relax ing the pressure, the crop is too dry and needs additional water." ' Both corn and sunflowers in the alley and coast districts are likely to be wet enough when mature enough for good silage. Sunflowers srrown under irrigation in eastern and central Oregon will quite prob ably likewise be wet enough at silage maturity. Frost Requires Water. After either of these crops has been frosted, water may be necessary. If the crops are allowed to stand tintil they have lost all green color and the seeds are thoroughly hard, they will not make as good silage as if cut earlier. Water will have to be added to replace the lost juices and to make the cut silage pack well. The product will have lost some suc culence, just aa grasses do when cured into hay. Corn is best cut for silage when the grain has reached but not passed the dented stage and is beginning to glaze. Varieties that reach this stage before frost have been found best for every locality. -The most successful sunflower ' grrower in central Oregon has got best results with silage made when the crop was about 75 per cent in the dough stage of seed. Corn Binder Most Savins;. The most economic means of cut ting corn and sunflowers is with the corn binder. The corn sled is like wise used to good advantage. Cut ting with corn knives is the most laborious and expensive way to har vest the silage crop. Use of large silage cutters makes It necessary to get considerable ma terial cut before filling the silo be 'gins, in order to keep the haulers busy. - - Low racks are most satisfactory for hauling the crop. The corn and sun flower material should be put into the silo as soon as possible after cutting. racklns HI out Important. Right distribution and thorough packing to exclude the air arc in dispensible to good silage. Several of the best men on the job are UBed for packing by the most successful farmers. Unlike the surface in stack ing hay, the outside should be kept the highest and receive the heaviest tramping. Depth of spoilage Is determined largely "by the amount of packing. The amount of spoiled silage may be reduced by fitting a tarred paper over the top after thorough tramping, then covering with a big load of silage well packed on. Very little will spoil beneath the paper. JACKSON . IiK.VDS IX PEARS tate Statistics Show 5 2 64 Acres of Bearing Trees in Country. MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 24. (Special.) The agricultural and horticultural statistics of the state for 1920 reveal that Jackson county teads Oregon in pear . acreage and stands second in apple acreage. The county, or valley, has 5264 acres of bearing pear trees and 2787 acres of non-bearing pear trees. Douglas county has the second largest pear acreage with 785 acres and Hood River comes next with 3S5 acres. Hood River county leads the state in apple acreage with S827 acres of bearing apples and 1619 in non-bearing apple trees. Jackson county has but 5091 acres of bearing apple trees and 604.25 in non-bearing trees.' This county's acreage of other fruits is rather slim, having only 337 acres of peach trees, 110 acres of prunes, 39.25 in cherries. 7.50 acres of loganber ries, ' 3.75 acres of blackberries and raspberries, 20 acres of strawberries and 91 acres in other berries and nuts.

Or., Oct. 24.' (Spe cial.) A hill of potatoes on the prop erty of J. K. Harris in Mountain View addition to Oregon City produced 7S food sized potatoes, besides a num ber having been dug from the vine earlier in the season. Mr. Harris ays this sounds rather "fishy," but has a -witness who was standing close by when he dug the potatoes. The po . tato vine was a volunteer and extend ed about IS inches below the surface cf the soil. A large water bucket was filled with the Burbank potatoes. Mr. Harris, whose former home was U Salem, purchased the acre of land about a year ago. formerly known as the Boyd property. The land was flomewhat run down, and by planting feerry bushes and strawberry vines. this year he has realized$50 from the sales of his garden. He is contem plating planting some of the land to potatoes, since the Burbanks have yielded so proliflcally.-. MILK PROJECT" IS LAUNCHED Agricultural College Starts Move i in Clackamas County. Greater efficiency in 'milk produc tion is the purpose of a project launched by the farm management de partment of the agricultural college extension service in Clackamas coun ty, through the county farm bureau. The dairymen of the district . have been supplied with report blanks upon which they will enter all items of expense in milk production and all returns from the products of the dairy operations. R. V. Gunn has Just returned from the Clackamas district; -where, work ing with the county agent, R. J.

CHLITZ FARMS GROW GOVERNMENT STATEMENT IN DICATES INCREASE. Indications Are That Large Tracts of Decade Ago Have Been Broken Up of Late. THE OEEGOSIAN NEWS BUREAU, Washington, Oct. 24. Cowlitz county. Wash., had 1066 farms in January, 1920, as against 909 April 15, 1910, ac cording to figures returned Dy tne census bureau. All but five of the farms were operated by white farm ers, 940 by owners or managers ana 126 by tenants. The gain in farm acreage has hard ly kept pace with the increase in the number of farmers, indicating that some of the larger farms of a decad ago have been broken up to give homes to new agriculturists. The total acreage of Cowlitz county farms in 19!0 is 110,256, as compared with 106.553 ten years ago. Improved acres are 27,994, as compared with 21.233 in 1910. A., greater growth, however, is shown in the increase in value of land and buildings which was $7,087, 696 January 1 1920, as against J4.120. 833 in 1910, a gain of $2,917,136, or 70 8 per cent. These farms produced crops In 1919 and 1909 as follows: Oats, 210.899 and 74,648 bushels; wheat 33,333 and 12.320 bushels; hay, 27.543 and 19,529 tons; "potatoes, 128, 299 and 160,467, the only crop loss from 1910 being in potatoes. romestic animals are reported in 1920 as follows: Horses, 2339; mules, 29; cattle, 11,708; sheep, 2672; swine, 3913. SOIIi IS BURNED IN SPAIN Student at Oregon Agricultural College Explains- Methods. The Spanish method of improving the physical condition of the soil -by burning is explained "by Guillermo Oifre, young Spanish student at the Oregon Agricultural college, who is registered from Mallorca island, one of the Belleares belonging to Spain. He is taking a course in horticulture, spcciali'.ing in packs, packing and marketing fruit. "It is a well-known fact that - to grow vegetables it is necessary to have a loose soil easily penetrable for the small plant root," he says. "This loose soil may be found near rivers in its natural form. Heavy soil may be modified by adding a certain quantity of sand, but if the river or the sand deposit is a consid erable distance from the garden it would be impractical to convey the sand to the garden because of the high cost of handling. "In Spain we use an original meth od. When the harvest is over we plow or spade the ground and dis tribute bundles of dry branches, com monly obtained through pruning.. They are placed 10 to 15 feet apart and covered with a thin cap of straw. Then a half-foot layer of the surface soil, leaving only a 6 to 9-inch hole near the ground through which we start a fire. It is the same .method by which charcoal is obtained in the woods." " Potato Workers Scarce. YAKIMA, Wash., Oct. 24. (Special.) Potato growers in some parts of Yakima valley are having trouble get ting sufficient help, according tq re ports, and on that account it is ex pected that the spud harvest will be prolonged beyond the normal period. Many growers are pitting their po tato crops. GERA IS DUE TODAY TO TAKE QN WHEAT British Vessel Makes Good Time From Liverpool.

Which Will Go to Honolulu. - A recruiting: campaign for the American merchant marine will be begun today by the recruiting office of the shipping board, according to announcement made by Lieutenant Harold p. Jones. Portland has been asked to contrib ute 25 men, to be trained on the next trip to Honolulu of the new 8800-ton steel training steamer Hollywood. Men are to be signed up in the deck, j engine and galley department for ap- ; prentice work. The recruits will be ! asked to sign for a year and will re- ; port to the sea training bureau at West Seattle, where they will be as signed to billets aboard the Holly wood. Training Ship Returning. The training sfoip is now on the re turn from Honolulu with a crew of recruits and she will leave again early in November. The cruise, which will include Honolulu in its itinerary, will consume about two months. While on the cruise the apprentice will .receive $30 a month, clothing. food and medical treatment. After graduation from his 'appren ticeship the recruit will receive a po sition aboard some shipping board vessel, being assigned by - the sea service bureau. He will receive the regular sea wages, which range from $65 to 90 per month. Schools Ma"yBe Attended. After they have served from one to three years in the merchant marine the men are eligible to attend the free schools in navigation or engin eering at San Francisco. Ten - recruits, recently graduated from their apprenticeship, were sent out of Portland on the steamer Waban, which left for the west coast of South America at midnight Satur day night. Recruits will be received during the campaign at the office of Lieutenant Jones at 20a Concord building. Sec ond and Stark streets.
