News From

Interest tn equipment for high
pressure spraying of cattle for
lice and grub control as well as
use for weed control is being
shown by farmers in some sec
tions of Morrow county. Since
most high pressure sprayers are
quite costly and not economical
for one operator to own. It is
possible for a group of farmers
to purchase one cooperatively.
The first farmers to get together
on a cooperatively owned spray
er Is a group headed by Merle
Kirk, with Sam Turner, Cliff
Daugherty. John Kenny and
John Healy owning shares. The
sprayer has been used on these
herds for grub and lice and will
be used for weed control spray
In with 2.4-D in a few months.
There seems to be a consider
able amount of interest in the
feeding of minerals to livestock
throughout the county. Many
livestockmen have called at this
i office regarding the minerals
I that are lacking and need to be
fed. Inder Morrow county con-
Merle Kirk, Heppner, returned
from the National Polled Here
ford sale at Sacramento last
week with three outstanding
Hereford bulls and one cow. The
entire lot were blue ribbon win
ners in their class. They were
consigned by top breeders from
Nebraska and Mississippi and
are of most outstanding quality.
While the cost of these animals
was high their quality will be a
great asset to building up the
cattle herd of Mr. Kirk and ev
entually other herds in Morrow
county.
Poor equipment and poor man
agemcnt in brooding and reat
ing can ruin the best chicks ev
er hatched, savs J. A. Harner
assistant professor of poultry
nusbandry, and N. L. Benmon
extension poultryrrlan, in a re
vised O.S.C. extension bulletin
"Chick Brooding and Rearing'
This bulletin, first issued in 1944
but revised and rprtrintoH ra.
cently, constitutes an illustrated
handbook on methods found best
by the experience of Oregon
poultrymen. Copies are free at
uus omce.
ditions the minerals needed are
salt, phosphorous, calcium and
iodine. A simple mixture of one-
third steamed bone meal, one-
third coarse salt and one-third
ground limestone can be mixed
at home. One ounce of potas
sium iodide should be added to
300 pounds of the mineral mix.
Farmers who are buying so-call
ed "balanced minerals for a
fancy price are spending a lot
of money for minerals not neea-
ed. Minerals mixed or manufac
tured in other state or localities
many times include minerals
needed in that particular local
ity and do not consider the needs
for Morrow county.
