While lie Is not i-ctlvely eiim'-d in radius the cattle In the manner that ho was once htill he has some of the best strains in the Northwest. There are other Kood llvstock breeders in the county, but we should have a lot more. Mor I'iw county could just as well as not claim the enviuble poaitlun held by Union county as a breeder or mire bred livestock. Let's get into the game. If you had some cattle as line ut Jeff Jones' Shorthorns, vou would all be proud of them. He has some good bulls for sulo. Values the Silo (From Farm Bureau News.) 'Having a silo means simply that you can feed your cows fresh, green corn all winter long," Bald C. E. Greaves of SUverdule. who was branded" at the farm bureau meet- ng at Port Orchard, Wash., the oth er day as "the best farmer In Kitsap county." "If 1 had only six cows on my place I'd have a silo It I had to dig it in tiie ground, and if you took away the two silos on my place which give me the ability to store 120 tons of silage, I'd sell out the dairy bus iness tomorrow. Learn to cut the stuff at the right time, though; put It in without too much water; and pack it bard. I want three good men nside when I'm filling, and I feel happier If I can get four." Mr. Ureaves has had some experience with wheat and vetch ensilage, also, and advised cutting this crop when the upper pea of the vetch Is still soft, though the lower ones may be hard. At that time the wheat Will be just a little out of the milk. Ap ropos of cow testing, this "best far mer exclaimed somewhat impatient ly: "I can't see for the life of me why people Insist on keeping cows which produce four or five gallons of milk when at very little more ex pense they can keep coSvs producing eight or nine." (From Farm Bureau News.) We have received a letter from the JackBon County Farm Bureau, asking for a state meeting to con sider general Farm Bureau market ing. We antlcloate that such a meet ing iwiU be called under the direction of the State Farm Bureau, which will probably be organized earlier than at first antlcinated. At the tire sent time the proper sphere of Farm Bureau marketing is somewhat in the air. We confess that we are not sure exactly how far we should go. Some Farm Bureaus have gone quite strons. We believe at the present time we will simply say this, that until the State organization shall havA evolved nlnns that more clearly define the proper activities of Farm Burau marketing. Morrow county Farm Bureau will probably confine Itself to the pooling of orders from farmers. In wh ch we are hearty De- lievers. Because by buying tn large Quantities, by orovidlng the funds necessary to take care of sight drafts attached to Bhinners orders, the farm er will be able to save himself a very larire amount of money. The mar keting that has so fur been done by the Farm Bureau has been praclic ally along these lines. All together while It may not be generally known, It la nevertheless true, that we have handled between 125,000 and $30 000 worth of cooperative buying through this office. Moat of it we be lieve not in competition with Buy" ex isting concern. The several dealer In sacks have asked the Farm Bureau to take over the entire sack situation. However w have not seen fit to do this. Another year if it 1b mutually agroable this might be done, we ask that every Farm Bureau member rarefullv studv the marketing situa tlon, the marketing problem, and see if he himself can work out a pian .'ilrh would be worthy of BUbmis Bion to a meeting to be called later K Is a mutter of vital Importance we believe, to the farmers of Oregon, and as well the farmers of Morrow county, however there are muny dan gers concealed, and we should look the matter squarely in the face be fore taking the leap. all PEAR THRiP CONTROLLED I1 RY MISCIRLE OIL SPPiY Lift- History Indicates Time anj 1'hamcter of At Link and Injury to Fruit. ! Oregon Agricultural College, Cor-1 vallis, Aoril 28. Pear thrips may bo controlled by mlscible oil sprays applied when the thrips start emerg ing from the ground in the spring during the pink blossom period or calyx period, explains A. L. Lovett, professor of entomology at the O. A. C. experiment station. "The thrip has been doing a small amount of damage during the last two or three years," says Professor Lovett, "Which varied in severity from light disorders when a fair per cent of fruit showed a heavy drop to more serious disorders when winter buds on the trees failed to put out at all. "The adult thrips are a twentieth of an Inch long and dark in color. They run with a gliding motion and may be seen in considerable numbers crowded down in the unfolded flower and leaf buds. "They pass the winter under seven t nine inches of soil and on emerg ing in the spring swarm up the trees and attack the developing portions. "They begin depositing their eggs in the leaf and fruit stems about the time the petals begin to fall. The larvae hatch in from four to five days and soon attack internally the under side of the leaves, calyx of the bloB- ' soms and the developing fruits. They reach full size In about 16 days, i "The larvae drop to the soli in ' June and remain as larvae until early fall, when they transform into me pupae stage. They complete trans formation to adults late in Septem ber." lllilllllllliI!ill!!!!lI!li:illlllIllllllliSlllill!l!lll!l!ll!lll!ll!H li- ItlHII!l'IHIIIIIIM!l(!l!!?!!llltll!!l'!lllll?H'l!ll!!M'l'i!!t'!ll!'l!!l'l!!'!!!t!t',lll"t!'l, F.R.

A Boy Can Run a John Deere Dain Mower While you are getting things In shape for making hay, put your boy on the John Deere Mower and let him do the cutting he will do it just as well and just as easily as you can do it Because of the powerful lift, he can easily raise the cutter bar to pass over any field obstruction or to ex treme height, when neces sary. A foot lever, working in conjunction with the hand lever, makes the lift simple and easy. He will never have to back up to get e start, even In the heaviest hey. The knife starts cutting the iniunt the mower is thrown la gear no lost motion. You will see big advantages In the drive on this machine It's extremely simple the gears are o placed that one set holds the other set in mesh constantly. The John Deere will cut all of the grass for years to come a simple adjustment ukes up all Ug in the cutter bar, without affecting the centering of the knife. If the knife ever needs re centering, a special adjustment I provided. The John Deere is the simplest, most powerful and best -built mower we have ever seen. We know it will appeal to you.
