Culling Time At Hand, Says Ben Newell Low production birds ran well be removed from the laying flock at any time of year, ad vises Ben A. Newell, assistant county agent, who has arranged two culling demonstrations for August 18. August, however, is the month when special care is given to examing each bird and Judging her ability to produce and lay through the fall and winter months. Birds that start to molt in May and June need to be culled at once, for probably it will be four to six months before they lay again, while a hen that will lay until September or Oc tober will molt rapidly and be back In production in four to six weeks. Persistent producers are the high producers, says Newell, and make the best breeders and second year layers. Feeding for summer produc tion involves a high consumption of a well balanced laying mash. Birds will eat more mash if a fresh supply k kept in the feed ers at all times. The vitamins, animal proteins and minerals in the mash stimulate egg produc tion and the scratch grains pro duce body heat and fat. For .this reason, laying hens should con sume 60 per cent of their ration in ma&h and 40 per cent in grain by weight in warm summer' weather. Feeding what wet mash the birds will clean up in 20 minutes fed at noon may help to increase tha consumption of feed. ri early you one st only Th $39.95 JSJ EE All eV- Sev f ' h. !' ism' i ? -i " t.

Polk Selioolman Does Well With Royal Amies By Best la h Craven Slateatnan Staff Writer MONMOUTH Josiah Wills. Polk county school superintendent, j has harvested 82 tons of Royal j Anne cherries from 45 acres this , season, the cnp grossing between j $18,000 and $20,000. Wills hastens to odd that ex- j penses totaled approximately $H. 000, for spraying, dusting, use of i dusting machine, picking, haul- j ing to market and state compen- ; sation insurance for hired help. I His profit is noteworthy, as the crop was raised on land which he ; bought for $10 er acre. About 18 .years ago. Wills who j was county suiwrinterulent tlien also learned that a tract of 480 acres of land in McTimmonds val- ley. about 11 miles southeast of Dallas, was offered for sale by the United States National bank of Portland. He investigated. The soil was red shot, the buildings old and not livable, the land had been logged, and it was all higher ele vation than around Dallas. Cherries Pay far Farm Having an agrarian urge. Wills bought the tract for $4800, and paid lawyer $200 extra to certify the abstract. He sold some scat tered timber, but aside from that the farm earned nothing for 10 years. In that time he set out his cherry orchard, spending all spare time in seasonal improve ment. During the war the cherries have paid for his ranch many times over, lie gives credit to the rry JJ IE W Complete tot of broken lines.

Will be closed quick ly st only county agent for information and advice, and e.pi.'ially do-s he val ue the aid received from his mem bership in the Willamette Valley Cherry Growers' association. Ills C rop Is l-ater His orchard, at an elevation of 1000 feet, begins to ripen jud when the crops on lower levels have been picked, so he has no trouble tn obtain pickers. Wills has never figured in the value of his own time and labor as his a vocational venture has made an interesting experiment. It indicates that perhaps every type of soil has some useful pur pose if enough time, patience and effort are expended to bring it to fruitful production. Berry DisaHe In Noted in Yamhill I King berry growers this year; in Yamhill county have noted a large number of ill-shapen ber- j lies, says lRiis Gross, county agerd. The disease st.uts at bios-! soming time, says Gross, and is very widespread in Yamhill j county, appearing worse in 1946 than in 1945. The best control of this dis ease, at the present time is to apply lime sulphur, two gallons per 100 gallons of water. In August. Another good practice, says Gross, is to cut away the old vines immediately after harvest and destroy these. There is also some gain made by putting up the new vines on the wires In the fall rather than leaving them on the ground all winter.
