Early Use Should
Be Made of
Bonneville Power
(Editor's Note: This Is one of a
. series of articles released by the
. State Planning Board from its rec
ommendations to Governor Charles
H. Martin on "Recommended Pol
icies for Sale of Bonneville Power."
Others in the series will follow un
til completed.)
To obtain the most economic op
eration and lowest cost of power
4 from Bonneville, its full output
should be sold as rapidly as possible,
otherwise all the generating units
may not be installed and the plant
may lie partially idle for many years.
; The sooner the total output of the
Bonneville project is put to use, the
lower the price at which the power
can be sold. If the time required
for complete absorption of Bonne
ville's ultimate capacity can be
4 shortened by the early sale of large
blocks of power, the saving in in
terest and carrying charges result
ing from this shortening of the load
building period should be passed on
to these early purchasers whether
public or private agencies. On the
, other hand, if a large part of Bon
neville's capacity lies idle for many
years, higher rates must be charged
, to those purchasers who eventually
buy the power, since unearned car
rying charges accumulated during
the period of idleness will be cap
italized in the rate base.
Rapid absorption of Bonneville's
full capacity will bring about early
construction of other low cost hy
droelectric projects in this region
which are awaiting development.
Two units will be generating pow
er at Bonneville in 1937. It is ex
tremely important that Congress
provide as soon as possible the nec
essary authority to make contracts
for sale of this power and to build
the main transmission lines to de
liver Bonneville power to the prin
cipal load centers.
The Oregon State Planning Board
has recognized the need for a com
prehensive survey of possible mar
kets for the Bonneville output. Its
Advisory Committee on Power has
reviewed all the data obtainable and
has submitted a preliminary report
recommending that intensive study
be made immediately of the follow
ing possible uses for Bonneville
power:
"Exploration and development of
Oregon's mineral resources, partic
ularly ores and raw materials for
. reduction and processing by elec
tric energy;
"Industrial development, particu
larly the establishment of heavy in
dustries in which power costs are an
important or governing factor, such
as electro-metallurgical and electro
chemical plants; '
."Interconnection with existing
power systems and line extensions
to stimulate increases both in num
ber of customers and in customer
use;
; "Pumping for irrigation and drain
age; "Highway lighting."
Investigation of these uses are be
, ing made by the United States Army
engineers and by others. A more
comprehensive study of possible
markets for Bonneville energy and
newly developed uses for electricity
is urgently needed. Aggressive sales
policies and effective marketing are
required to achieve full benefits to
. the public from the federal invest
ment in Bonneville, otherwise this
power plant may lie partially idle
for many years. ,
75 FARMERS AT LEXINGTON
TALK EROSION CONTROL
Continued from First Page
fective way to .reduce soil losses,
either by wind or by water. Re
gardless of the implement used, the
. measure of its effectiveness, as
brought out in this meeting, is pret
ty much a matter of how much trash
remains on the surface of the ground.
Due to the almost impassable con
'dition of the roads, it was impossi
ble for farmers outside of the county
to attend in any numbers. In fact,
several men coming within five miles
of the hall were forced to ride horses
or to walk. Josh Barnes of Water
ville, and several other farmers from
that section had planned to attend.
A telegram received at the last mo
ment advised that it was impossible
for them to get out of Waterviile.
At the suggestion of C. E. Hill,
state co-ordinator for the Soil Con
servation service in Oregon, the fol
lowing letter from Randall S. Case,
president of the North Coast Secur
ities corporation, was read. This or
ganization has been forced to take
over thousands of acres of farm land
in Douglas county, Washington,
which, through soil blowing, had
gone out of production. Since using
trashy summerfallow as a basis for
controlling wind erosion, this same
land has come back into production
and is getting back into the hands
of individual farmers. Mr. Case's
letter follows:
"Up to about 1925 or 1926, the far
mers of Douglas, county generally
followed the clean summerfallow
method of cultivation. Due to con
stant moldboard plowing and weed
ing to keep the summerfallow clean,
the humus matter was worked out
of the top soil and' the top soil was
worked so fine that a serious blow
problem developed. The blow dam
age grew worse with each year and
it began to look as though thousands
of acres, especially in the lighter soil
section, would be worthless for rais
ing wheat. We tried spring-toothing
and cross-furrowing the summerfal
low but this only gave temporary re
lief as the furrows filled in and in
a short time the entire field was
blowing again.
"Finally, on recommendation of
the Waterviile experiment station,
the disc plow was tried out on the
Barnes land and this method of
plowing has effectively controlled
the blow. The advantage of this
method for controlling both wind
and water erosion is obvious. Under
the old method of summerfallow the
stubble and trash was all turned un
der, leaving only the loose soil on
top, and loose soil is of course, sub
ject to blow and water erosion and
especially so when every weeding
serves to still further pulverize the
soil. With the disc plow, the stub
ble is left on top to check both wind
and water erosion. The more trash
that can be kept on top, the better,
and we, of course, never burn stub
ble. "The trashy summerfallow culti
vation was adopted in the first place
from necessity in order to save the
land, but in working out this plan
of cultivation, we have found that
it not only controls erosion but is a
more practical and economical man
ner of farming. The disc summer
fallow method makes possible work
ing the land in a much shorter time
in the spring and thus saves moisture
in the summerfallow. At the same
time it is less expensive than the old
moldboard.
"Also, the land is not worked so
deep and we have proved that it is
possible to build up a trashy top soil
that holds the moisture underneath
so that we can seed into good mois
ture any time after harvest season
by using a deep furrow drill. This
is a big advantage as it enables us to
get winter wheat up in the fall with
out waiting for fall rains. For ex
ample, we have excellent stands of
winter wheat up in Douglas county
now and have had hardly any rain
since last June.
"The trashy summerfallow culti
vation will show results the first
season and each following season
that this method has been followed,
the top soil continues to improve in
resisting erosion and conserving
moisture. The full benefit of this
method is usually after the third
season.
"To sum up our experiences with
trashy summerfallow cultivation:
"First, it has saved thousands of
acres of land that were becoming
valueless due to wind erosion. (This
same land is now producing excellent
crops and the land has a ready mar
ket value where before there was
no sale for the land.)
"Second, it has taken a large part
of the gamble out of winter wheat
raising as the summerfallow can be
completed in a short time with the
disc plow and the moisture retained
in the summerfallow for winter
wheat seeding with a deep furrow
drill even in a dry season.
"Third, it is much more econom
ical than the old method and the
saving in farming expenses means
more profit from the crop.
"We own several thousand acres
of Douglas county wheat land and
are looking after considerable addi
tional land for others and we are
such strong advocates of this meth
od of summerfallow that we specify
it in our leases."

Quickest Way
to Ease a
COLD
Taka 2 Bayer
Aspirin tablets
with full rises of
water.
If throat is son
also, gargle with 8
Bayer tablets in
H gis of water.
The modem way to ease a cold is
this: Two Bayer Aspirin tablets the
moment you feel a cold coming on.
Repeat, if necessary, in two hours. If
you also have a sore throat as a result
of the cold, dissolve 3 Bayer tablets in
glass of water and gargle with this
twice. The Bayer Aspirin you take
internally will act to combat fever,
aches, pains which usually accompany
a cold. The gargle will provide almost
instant relief from soreness and raw
ness of your throat. Your doctor, we
feel sure, will approve this modern
way. Ask your druggist for genuine
Bayer Aspirin by its full name not
by the name "aspirin" alone.
