Fertilizer Is
In big Demand
Recent Shipment of Treble
Superphosphate Shows
Farmer Interest
Increased interest in the use of
commercial fertilizer has. recently
been noticed In Marion county,
following the distribution of 90
tons of 45 per cent treble phos
phate sponsored by the AAA
farm program. That opinion was
expressed this week by Harry Ri
ches, county agricultural agent.
The phosphate was distributed
as "grants of aid" among farmers
who are cooperating in the 1939
AAA farm program. This meant
that the operators could receive
the fertilizer Immediately, yet not
pay for it at this time. Instead,
cost of the phosphate will be de
ducted from soil conservation
payments which they earn this
year by soil-building practices.
A requirement of the phosphate
distribution Is that the material
be used only on lands devoted to
soil conservation crops in other
words, on lands devoted to peren
nial pastures, alfalfa, red clover,
and similar grasses and legumes.
Want Land Improved
The distribution showed very
clearly that many farmers are
anxious to increase the value of
their land by using commercial
fertilizer, but often are unable to
buy the materials.
"The response to the phosphate
program was much greater than
we had anticipated," said Mr. Ri
ches, "and many farmers were
unable to get as much as they
wanted. In many cases, they were
unable to get any.
"This distribution seems to
have stimulated the demand for
phosphate, and undoubtedly it will
result in Increased sales to farm
ers by Oregon dealers."

tions. Thus, a 5-10-5 mixture
(that is, a mixture with 5 per
cent nitrogen, 10 percent phosphoric-acid,
and 5 percent potash)
contains a total of 20 percent of
these three nutrients. A 4-12-4
also contains 20 percent but the
4-12-4 has three times as much
phosphoric acid as nitrogen and
potash, while the 5-10-5 only has
twice as much. Your selection be

Time Is Wearing
For Thrips Spray
Leth Warns Growers to Get
Ready to Combat
Prune Pest
DALLAS Prune growers In
terested in spraying for the con
trol of prune thrips should be
gin getting; their equipment ready
as it will soon be time for thrips
to emerge, states V. C. Leth,
Polk county agent.
Ho further states that the
spraying for thrips is practical
and satisfactory only when suit
able weather occurs at the time
the spraying is to be done. If
the weather, is rainy spraying is
ineffective and little benefit can
be secured from lt and there
fore this is the weak ; point in
the present control recommen
dations for this pest, i
Costs $5 Per Acre
The cost per acre for this
spray Is about $5, however, this
will depend upon the size of the
trees, States Mr. Leth.
The solution recommended by
S. C. Jones of OSC is three gal
lons of lime sulphur, 1 pint of
black leaf 40 and water to make
100 gallons. A circular contain
ing complete information is
