Strip Cropping Liked
On Anderson Farm
Strip cropping as a method of
checking soil and water losses on
cultivated land is being used on the
Hilma Anderson farm 11 miles west
of Heppner.
The plan, drawn up in coopera
tion with the Soil Conservation ser
vice, calls for alternate strips of
wheat and summer fallow with a
grass strip between. Winter wheat
seeded on the strips to be cropped
next year has made a good stand.
The fallow strips have been basin
listed as further protection against
loss of soil and water.
Frank Anderson, operator of the
farm, is enthusiastic over the possi
bilities of strip cropping in control

is being demonstrated was formerly

son believes that in addition to re
ducing soil and water losses and
stopping gullying, strip cropping, by
