Barley on Oregon farm« has been about the same price as mid-west farms since our divert ed acres have Increased our barley supply. Usually our grain has been worth more per ton than corn In the corn belt. We are still enjoying our price advantage on hogs. It is around $2.50 per cwt now. We can raise a lot more pigs before we can lose all of this ad vantage Folks needing to supplement their Income and utilize some of the feed grains we have, especial ly with the lower barley price, could well afford to feed hogs. There will not be any big money in hogs, but one could make more from them, than from selling bar ley directly. When you buy one of the 35,000 pesticides now on the market and use it as Instructed, there is a good chance that you will get the results claimed. USDA regula tions of Interstate Trade such chemicals now protect the public from misinformation, especially where it might increase a hazard to users. Under the federal Insecticide, fungaclde and rodenticlde act, a manufacturer or distributor must register pesticides» before shipping them inter state. But to be regis tered a product must lie of certain standards, effective for the use stated, and to the extent claimed, be properly labeled as to the in gredients, and contain adequate direction including “warnings”. A plant clinic was established by the extension service at OSC Just a little over a year ago. Since that time it has handled over 1,000 diseased specimens, cover ing a wide array of diseases. A number of plants from Sherman county have been forwarded to the clinic for identification and recommendation as to control. Commercial problems, or mere ly a home owners problem with garden, or flowers and shrubs may utilize this service. Folks having disease problems should contact the county extension of fice for assistance through the plant clinic. Sheep tick treatment about two weeks after shearing is an excellent time to rid the flock of tick« and keds. This will allow enough wool regrowth to hold @ A summary of several thousand dairy improvement records indi cate that for each $15 spent for grain, there was an increase of $40 more return over feed costs. This would hold true, but in dif ferent proportions, in feeding mash to laying hens. Differences are quite pronoun ced this time of year from the nitrogen fertilizer trial plots scattered throughout the county. These plots are located on the Charles Burnet, Willard Harper, Leland Medler. Donald McDermid, Ed Cardinal, Howard Ross, Ver non Miller, Gene Reynolds, Sam Davis and Carl Schadewitz farms.

Sheep ticks are actually wing less flies, that are especially dam aging to young lambs by sucking large amounts of their blood. Fol lowing «hearing time the ticks will crawl from the ewe on to the lambs. All sheep in the flock in cluding lambs should be treated. A suggested method of treat ment is to place 10 or 15 sheep in a small inclosure and then spray them thoroughly with a weed sprayer, developing from 200 to 300 pounds pressure. The recommended treatment, at pre sent, is 8 pounds of 50% wettable DDT powder in 100 gallons of water. It is advisable to spray in both the spring and fall.
