that folks won't wait until the dead
line before having conservation prac
tices checked.
MANY PEOPLE VISIT STATIONS
That Oregon people are keenly in
terested in what takes place on the
experiment stations is indicated by
the fact that 50 field days in the last
two years have brought visitors to
these stations in numbers ranging
up to 800 each. A summary of these
field days given in the recent bien
nial report of the experiment station
shows that the eastern Oregon live
stock branch station at Union held
the most field days, followed by the
central station at Corvallis.

Checking AAA Range
Due to Get Benefits
An outstanding accomplishment
of the federal range conservation
program this year has been its dem
onstration of the value of water de
velopments, according to E. H. Mil
lar, chairman of the Morrow county
agricultural conservation committee.
"This has been a dry year, he
pointed out, "and those ranch oper
ators of our county who developed
springs, dug wells or built dams
and reservoirs under the AAA pro
gram were certainly glad to have
the extra water supply for their
livestock."
Mr. Miller said that 38 ranch op
erators of this county took part in
the federal range improvement pro
gram this year, and he expected as
many and perhaps more would par
ticipate in 1940.
The chairman stated that the 1939
range program is now nearing a
wind-up and that December 31 is
the final date for operators to com
plete their practices. Any practices
undertaken after that date will be
applied to the 1940 range program.
Onlv exception to the December 31
date is artificial reeeding, which
will be approved only if done be
tween September 1 and November
30.
"Range conservation practices
must be checked for compliance af
ter thev are completed, the chair
man said. "It costs more to check
compliance after winter sets in, so
we are urging ranch operators to
finish their work and have it checked
as soon as possible. March 31, 1940,
has been set as the final date for
