News From

Loss- from rattle prebs run
Into many millions of dollars an
nually with over 35 percent of 1
the cattle slaughtered in the U.
S. classed as "grubby." Morrow
county farmers should bepin to
do something to hold their share
of the annual loss down. With
the control methods that have
proved effective when used tha
economical, there is no reason I possible radius of one mile from
for anv of our cattlemen neglect- where they are hatched. There'
ing this job.
Treatment consists of spray
inp or dusting the "grubby"
backs of the cattle wtih a 5 per
cent rototionc spray or dust. Ap
plication should be made soon
after the grubs begin to cut holes
' in the s':in and drop out. This
is generally in late January or
February depending on the year.
Since the heel fly, which the
grubs develop into, lays eggs for
next year's grubs it is necessary
that a sood kill be made. Heel
fore it is important that the
treatment be made on a com
munity basis so that herds are
riot infested from neighbors who
have not treated for grubs. Five
percent rotonone is being sold
at cost at the County Agent s ol-
fice. Anyone wishing to treat
for grubs and wanting more in
formation is invited to stop in
at this office soon.
which got no salt was S17.85.
While for the hogs which got
salt the feed cost per hundred
pounds of gain was only S 10.73
a saving of $7.12 for every hun
dred pounds of gain.
While this experiment is made
on hogs only, it is true that all
of our livestock needs salt at all
times in order to produce or gain
economically.

Oscar Peterson, farmer south
of lone, finds that it pays to be
persistent with perennial weeds.
Mr. Peterson began many years
ago with a program for control
ling morning glory by use of
chemicals. Applications of sod
ium chlorate were used on pat
ches followed up the following
years by individual treatment
of scattered plants not killed by
the first application. A supply
of chemical is kept on hand at
all times and when a plant of
morning glory is found it is
treated at once.
At the same time Mr. Peterson
has carried through a clean cul
tivation pogram for a larger
Datch of morning glory that
could not be economically con
trolled by chemicals. Opposite
to the belief of many he nas
found that this is an effective
control method if timely culti
vations are made and continued
especially at harvest time when
so many good farmers neglect
their weed cultivations by the
press of harvest operations.
Following these methods Mr.
Peterson has found that he is
getting ahead of the weeds fast
instead of being the loser as
in many of our cases here in
Morrow county.

Keeping the Christmas tree
standing in plain water, no
chemicals added is about the
most satisfactory and convenient
method of keeping the fire haz
ard low and of checking the
dropping or fading of color in
the needles. Chemical solutions
have been recommended but
plain water does just about as
well, costs nothing, and does not
promote any false sense of se
curity that the tree has been
fire-proofed. Some chemicals
tend to discolor the leaves.
The state forester has just an
nounced that tree seedlings are
available to Oregon farmers for
establishment of woodlands,
shelterbelts and windbreaks
Anyone wishing to put out
shelterbelt can contact this of
fice for information and assist
ance in ordering, or in laying
out the planting u you wisn
help.
Trees must be ordered by at
least March 1. The sooner orders
are made the better selection of
species you will have. Species
available now are Douglas fir,
Port Orford cedar, Ponderosa
pine, Arizona cypress, Chinese
arborvitae, Giant Sequoia, black
locust and Russian olive.
A small charge of $2.50 per
thousand is made to cover cost
of handling.
In the salt feeding experiment
T.ith tattening nogs aunng me
summer of 1945, Purdue univer
sity showed a penny's worth of
salt saved 287 pounds ol teea
valued at $6.37.
The results of this test were
so remarkable that a similar test
was made this year on young
pigs. The results were equally
amazing. .
Two lots of young pigs were
started on feed in dry lot, July
11. Each lot contained 15 pigs
with an average starting weight
of 50 pounds. The ration was the
same for both shelled corn, pro
tein supplement, and mineral
mixture. However, one group got
salt free choice. . .the other group
got no salt
Here are the results at the end
of 65 days.
Pigs receiving salt free choice
gained 75 per cent faster than
those without salt. The salt-
starved pigs gained only 48
pounds a head. For each pound
of salt consumed there were 29
extra pounds of gain.
Besides the extra gain there
was tremendous cut in feed cost.
Figuring shelled corn at $1.68 a
bushel, supplement at $90.00 a
ton, the mineral mixture at 2.5
rpnts a nound, the cost per nun-
dred pounds of gain for the hogs

When Christmas comes,
