The boys decided it was their off-day. Pitcher Grean off, second baseman off, and the fin al score a way off, 10-29. It's these timber men's time to howl. cate that application of 2,4-D late in the growing season re duced the seed set and lowered the germination of seed of Rus sian knapweed, Canadian this tle, wild parsnips, morning glory and a number of other kinds Further work is required to de termine the best time of appli cation and the dosage, says Freed. Crops such as tomatoes, beans, and peas and other vegetables usually grown in the home gar den are highly sensitive to 2,4-D and like the weeds will be de stroyed if some of the spray drifts on thorn while you- are treating weeds with the chemi cal. The weed killer is much more powerful and long-lasting in ef fect than generally realized. A small residue of 2,4-D in spray ing equipment can injure veg etable plants. For this reason, agricultural scientists caution about using the same equipment for spraying the lawn and gar den. Unless the sprayer is thor oughly cleaned with warm am monia water after 2.4-D is used to treat the lawn, it may contain enough residue of the weed kill er to harm garden crops. Use about 2 teaspoons of household ammonia to a gallon of warm water to clean the sprayer. Dance Willows Grange Hall SAT.

YEAGER (Registration No. 410829) ) 'V ' ' :il Wfc ' at MANKIN & BUNCH RANCH 6 Miles Below Heppner Mankin & Bunch, Owners your life depends on land. ..your land depends on conservation If all the harvested cropland in the United States were equally divided between each man, woman and child, each t would have approximately two and one-half acres. This is about the size of an aver age city block. It is 330 feet square. From this small area each of us gets his wheat, cotton, corn, rice, tobacco, vegetables fruit and simi lar crops. In Western Europe (including Germany) cropland per person amounts to only .7 of an acre. In Asia it is only .5 per acre. Thus, though the American figure seems small, the comparison empha sizes the richness of our agricultural production as compared to that of the rest of the world. It also high lights the importance of productive land. Since we started farming in the United States we have ruined around 12 acre per person based on present day population. Another of an acre of the 2y2 acres is in serious condition. We need the whole 2l acres. It has toproduce efficiently to do its job. There's one sure way of getting efficient production . . . and that's through conservation farming. Con servation can save what we have and build much of the land ruined In years past. The farm service of the First Na tional Bar of Portland is working with farmers throughout the state in the interests of soil conservation and better farming methods. First National farm field men work close ly with your county agent and your local Agricultural Conservation Committee to the end that the latest and the most modern methods be made available to you.
