Larger Lamb Crop
Needed in Oregon
"One of the big problems of the
sheep business in this state is that
the breeders are not getting a large
enough lamb crop," says H. A. Lind
gren, Oregon State' college specialist
Ihe state of Washington reports
an average of 120 per cent lambing
wnne ine average lor this state is
only 80 to 90 per cent. More atten,
tion must be paid to breeding and
lambing time. Ewes giving a large
amount or milk and having a good
heavy fleece with lots of quality to
gether with conformation is what
makee the sheep pay.
"This state has very good market
ing conditions for both sheep and
cattle providing they are handled cor
rectly. Oregon is strictly a Ramboui
lette state. Idaho and Washineton
are looking to this state for fine wool
hreeding stock, thus affording an ex
cellent market for breeding ewes. In
Portland the market demands 2500
head of cattle per week which can be
supplied by breeders of this state
providing their cattle are put on the
market regularly in good condition.
which is possible."

Potatoes treated with corrosive sub-1
limate, the recommended treatment in
Oregon, should be treated while still
dormant or before they have sprouted.
Badly sprouted potatoes if treated are
given a shorter dip, or treated by
some other method.
