FARM POINTERS.
(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.
