Thjxrsdaj Homing Ceptamber 13. 1841 TAGS TESmzn VjXUVCI occu Available V TS - Limited Supply New Pasture Legume on Hand at Office Seed of the new pasture legume, subterranean - clover which has proved very satisfactory 1 avail able in supplies tor distribution this fall, according to W. G. Nib- ler, assistant county agent This clover is finding much' fa vor for pasture since it with stands pasturing well and is cap able of reproducing itself in pas ture indefinitely through its hab it of burying its seed. The crop Is , adapted to almost all of the well drained valley and hill soils in f this county. . -. , W-.v The price of the seed at present, rangme from 45 to 60 cents Is ra - ther expensive, Nibler said, but three to five, pounds per acre is aufficicent seed for pasture. Some growers In the valley are now . growing this crop, for seed and it is hoped that larger supplies will become available in following years, since the legume Is doing very well as a hill land pasture on the logged-off lands. ome seed nouses are now .stocking subterranean clover seed and have it available in lots' for pasture feedings. Any seed plant ed should be Inoculated since sub- -.. terranean clover requires differ ent inoculation from any of the other clovers now being grown In this region, This material' may be obtained through the office of the county agent in the postoffice building.-' ..-yr, A limited amount of subterran ean clover -seed is also available through the office of the county lots for trials may contact the of UlC AVI lv ... Need for Slug Bait Noted By Agent Farmers who remember the damage done last year to their fall seedings of vetch and clover by slugs, a h o u I d be . watching carefully for this pest how, said W. G. Nibler, assistant county agent. . If metaldehyde bait is to be used effectively ' In controlling this pest,' timely application very important. Even before the vetch or clover .-; comes up, tria baiting should be made in various parts of the fields to , determine the slug population. If slugs are present in any number, a baiting we v ew -ur ase, v lerva 4-C w -r -SJL-I should be more effective than baiting after the crop is sprouted i and there is considerable green material on . the ground.. Many growers who baited last year but acted too late, found that the slugs were so thick that even 1 two and three applications of bait ; were not effective in reducing the number. This can be avoided by baiting early, said Nibler, thus : preventing any large-number from building up. Hop Picking Nears .

Portable Hop Picker at Vork 4 J- If Faced with a critical condition due te lack of workers to harvest the crop, machines, like the one pictured above, are being ased ea the Herat ranch la the Independence area. They were invented by the - late E. Clemens Horst in 1935. Picking Machines Save the Crop At Largest Hop One way of beating the labor shortage situation and thus saving the crop on the biggest hop ranch in the world, the E. Clemens Horst yards in the Independence area, is being demonstrated this year as portable and stationary picking machines do the work of harvest-1 ing usually done by human hands. : To the spectator who knows little about this crop for which the Willamette valley Is famous, the portable machines in the field may be little more than objects of marvel However, when one learns ' from Frank B. Kennedy, who supervises the growing of the 500 acres of hops on the ranch, that with a crew of nine men from 10,000 to 12,000 pounds of green hops are picked by the machine within a 10 hour period under good conditions the value of this equipment takes on new significance. Between 75 and 80 persons would be needed to do an equal amount of work in the same period. Even more extensive in their operations are the two station ary machines, invented by the late Herat between SO and 35 years age bnt seldom used here before, which in a good day, win . pick approximately 30,00 pounds ef hops er the equival ent to 7,560 pounds of the dried product, or 27 bales. These stationary machines, which are Used exclusively on many of the Horst ranches In Cal ifornia, require about 20 persons to operate them as well as a crew of from 25 to 30 in the field. They do the work of between 150 and 200 average pickers, Kennedy explained. The brain child of Horst, the first portable machine was built in the blacksmith shop of the In dependence ranch about 1935, and Is now being, used by growers in California and in the Grants Pass and Yakima areas. . The six machines now in use at Independence were brought up from Sacramento, where they were used in the earlier harvest there. Between 30 and 35 have been in operation In Yakima, three in Grants Pass and eight to 19 in California. In charge of their manufac ture is E. Thys, a son-in-law of the founder. Because of the in creased demand for them in Yak ima, where the labor shortage as well as larger acreage-has made them increasingly popular,' pick ers are being built there as well as in Sacramento. How extensively they will be used in the future depends on nnmltfr nt fartnre TCnnvlv eairli tuia.jm uau w snuviu v- Closing Quotations NEW YORK, Sept 16.-)- Air Reduction 43 "Douglas Alaska Juneau " 4V4 Du Pont Al Chem & Dye 61 Eastman Allis Chalmers - 30 El Pow & American Can 84 Gen Electric . 34 ' Pub Ser N J 21 Amer Car & Fdy 31 General Foods 40 Pullman ; ;.26 Am Rad Std Stn 6Ya General Motors - 41 Radio ,. 3 Am Roll Mills 14 Goodrich -i. 18 Rayonier 15 Am Smelt & Ref 45 Goodyear - 20 Republic Steel 20 Amer Tel & Tel 155 Great Northern - 25 Richfield Oil 10 Amer Tobacco B 70 ,Grayhound:. 14 Safeway Stores 48 Amer Wat Wks Amer Zinc LAS , Anaconda Armour Illinois Atchison .;,.

With defense industries getting priority rights on many parts production troubles have in creased." Inoculation for Legume Seedings Suggested Many fall seeding of vetch, crimson clover and peas are now being made by Marion county farmers on land where these crops have not been growing for several years, and Inoculation of these seeds is highly important' accord ing to Assistant County : Agent W. G. Nibler. ; It is expected that a large amount of land, particularly in the hill sections of the county will be planted to these crops due to the general increase in seed crops planting, and in most of these cases the bacteria necessary for forming the nodules on these le gume plants will be lacking from the soiL Artificial inoculation will greatly aid the growth of the crop if it is applied to the seed before planting.

Gains on the day were general and a fair scattering of new highs for the year or longer were included in the final tally.. . ;n . ? Aircraft manufacturing stocks had carried the burden of the ad vance through most of a dull and spotty session but when motor and steel issues joined the parade in the final minutes most other sections of the list followed. As share prices advanced, turn over picked up. Volume was 886,- S60 snares, compared with eoo,- 190 shares Tuesday. The advance of .5 of a point in the Associated Press average of 60 stocks to 44.1, was the widest for a single session since July 21, this year. In the share list gains of major fractions to 2 points or so were recorded for such issues as US Steel, Bethlehem, Youngstown Sheet General Motor. Chrysler. US Rubber, J. L Case, Douglas, United Aircraft, Bendix, Glenn Martin, New York Shipbuilding, Union Carbide, American Can, American Telephone. Santa Fe and Peoples Gas Light & Cokef Consolidated Aircraft, which was a leader xrom tne opening after declaration of a cash and stock dividend, closed 234 higher. Eastman Kodak was up nearly 9. Extension Shift Improves Agent, Marketing Work Two important changes in the extension service, approved at the last meeting of the state board of hloW mmH, Br riMimMt tn strengthen both the statewide marketing work and the county agent project of the service, ac cording to an announcement by William A. Schoenfeld, dean and director of agriculture. These changes involve trans f erring - Clifford Smith from his position of assistant marketing specialist w uidk ul bjkisuui tviuii- tr agent leader, and moving H. G. Avery, for 20 years county agent of Union county, to the market ing post vacated by Smith. Small seed production was started under Avery's leadership which resulted in the formation of the cooperative Blue Mountain Seed Growers association, which serves most of eastern Oregon and of which Avery has been manager this past year while on leave from the extension service. He has also organized a poultry marketing. association and been active in the betterment of dairy and fruit marketing in his region. Smith's appointment as assist ant county Agent leader partially relieves the situation there, said Teutsch, though the directional force is still no larger than It was 15 years ago when fewer than half the counties had agents. Under the present national emergency it is essential to coordinate the various county programs, he added. the freshly prepared, live bac- teria inoculating material.
