A. M. Markham waa over from his
Freewater home for two or three days
this week, looking after his land in
terests in Morrow county. While he
noted some complaint here regarding
me oacKwaraness or the season, Mr.
Markham thought things looked pret
ty good and could see no serioua rea
son for complaints. We should not
expect to see vegetation as far along
this season of the year as it should
be the last of April or first of May,
and he thinka things will come out
0. K. with Morrow county. . Mr. Mark
ham is a mighty loyal friend of his
old home community.

dren. Mr. and Mrs. Nys returned
home on Friday.

Irrigated Pastures. -
Morrow County Farm Bureaa News.)
Irrigated pastures will on the whole
pay as good returns aa having the
land in any other crop. The custom
of using alfalfa for paatur ia on the
whole not to be recommended as there
ta too much danger from bloating.
In numerous instances farmers have
used alfalfa pasture for years suc
cessfully and then suddenly lost a
large number of stock from bloating.
The irrigated pastures ahould con
tain a number of grasses but should
not be needlessly complicated. A sod
forming grass and a legume should
be included with such other grasses
aa local conditions warrant. In gen
eral, Kentucky Bluegrass, and smooth
nrome Grass are very desirable in
any mixture. White Clover, Ladino
Clover, and Sweet Clover are good
legumes for the mixture. Seedings of
from 17 to as hight of 60 pounds per
acre have been successful, depending
on the mixtures used and the soil
and climatic conditions. 'These mix
tures have cost from three to seven
dollars per acre, and in general should
not cost more than five dollars per
acre. Local conditions will deter
mine in many cases the mixture to be
used. For instance, the ahallow root
ed grasses such as Bluegrass, should
not be made the basis of a pasture,
where there a short water supply as
it requires frequent watering to pet
maximum results. Where water is
irregular and short the Utter part of
the season, aweet clover alone will
give as good results aa many of the
mixtures. The drawback to aweet
clover ia that it is a biennial and in
using it for pasture it should be used
as part of a rotation, aeeding certain
plots to aweet clover each year and
pasturing them the year following.
Some objection has been made to
sweet clover as to causing bloating,
but where detailed atudiea have been
made of bloating caused by aweet clo
ver it has been found in general stock
will not bloat on aweet clover any
more than they will when fed ft high
quality of alfalfa hay.
A pasture mixture that has worked
out well at the Umatilla Experiment
Station is aa follows: Orchard graas
is as followa: Thia mixture ia rec
ommended to be aown at the rate of
22 pounds per acre.
Orchard Grass 6 pounda
Kentucky Bluegrass S pounds
Meadow Fescue 4 pounds
Smooth Brome Grass .... 4 pounds
Alsike Clover 2 pounds
If the ground is wet from seepage
the Fescue should be replaced with
Red Top at the same rate.
Mixtures recommended by the Hunt
ley, Montana, Experiment Station
with rates of seeding in pounda per
acre are as follows:
Smooth Brome Grass 8 to 4
Kentucky Bluegrass 4 to 6

It is rather unsafe to make definite
recommendationa aa U the exact
amounts of each variety because of
the wide difference in germination of
different lots aeed. It ia best to get
a germination test of each variety
made and determine the mixture ac
cordingly. Dates of aeeding where moisture
conditions are favorable, are around
the first of April either with or with
out a nurse crop, or the latter part
of August, seeding in grain stubble
and irrigating immediately after
wards. The spring seeding usually
will give a little heavier crop of grass
the following year.

Whatb back
of this shift
in cigarette
popularity
Is it only a desire
for change?
Is it a matter
of price ?
Or is it all
a question
of taste?
Vo mere desire for change will
not explain why so many thousands
of smokers all over the country are
changing from other cigarettes to.
Chesterfield. 1
It' something more fundamental.
to price does not account for this
sweeping turn-about in cigarette
popularity, for Chesterfield is sold
at the popular price it costs the
same as any of the largest selling
brands.
Yes that's the answer. It is taste
and taste alone that explains
Chesterfield's sweeping gains. And
taste is a matter of tobacco quality.
We state it as our honest
belief that the tobaccos used
in Chesterfield are of finer
quality (and hence of better
taste) than in any other cig
arette at the price.
