(O. S. A. C. Extension Service.) It Is almost time to cull the ewe flock, reminds H. A. Lindgren, ex tension specialist. Ewes are culled on age, health, ability as lamb rais ers, and their wool production. Dry ewes or those that did not have lambs this season are marked. If they fail to produce for two sea sons in succession, it Is a good Idea to get rid of them. Dry ewes in a flock reduce the percentage of lambs weaned. There are usually more of them present than the flock owner realizes. Garden slugs are controlled by ap plying a combination spray and poison bait, says J. Wilcox, assist ant entomologist of the Oregon ex periment station. A bordeaux spray of 4-4-60 strength is first sprinkled over the plants. Baits made of 1 ounce of calcium arsenate mixed with 1 pound of chopped lettuce leaves is scattered around the in fested plants in small heaps. Cut worm poison bran mash, with" cal cium arsenate as the poison may also be used. Lead arsenate may be used as a control of the rose saw fly which attacks all roses in Oregon says the experiment station entomologist A dust made up of one part lead ar senate and six parts hydrated lime is used. Some farmers in Oregon using Ir rigation for the first time do not realize the importance of cultivation following application of water. Thorough cultivation as soon as the soil is in condition to crumble is found beneficial by the experiment station. Care to see that all animals and fowls are plentifully supplied with water during the summer months pays big returns. CHILDREN'S SUNDAY IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. On Sunday, August 19th, the chil dren of the parish will make their first Holy Communion at the only mass on that day, at 8:30. A spec ial sermon will be prepared by the pastor, applicable to both parents and their children. The children will be blessed individually and con secrated unto God and to religion. All children, babies, and infants In cradles are welcome. Parents may bring them along and fear nothing should the little ones make any noise or become weary. Let the worries from this point be all for the pastor. The cries of the little tootsies" will be just so many in nocent prayerful cries unto the Lord who always welcomes the lit tle ones to His Sacred Heart. Par ents are expected to receive the Sacrament on that day. Henceforth tms win oe an annual anair in tne church. It would have taken place during the month of May but for the continued cold weather.
