Hairy Sherman, farmer on Wil
low creek above Heppner, has
found that a seeding of ladino
clover, smooth brome and orch
ard grass is hard to beat for an
irrigated pasture. Two acres of
pasture near his farm buildings
were seeded to this mixture in
the spring of 1946.
The seeding was pastured
some last summer to keep it
from growing too rank. This
spring Mr. Sherman has had to
add cattle from time to time to
keep the pasture grazed down
until at present he has iive cows,
three calves, and three young
bulls in the two-acre plot.
Mr. Sherman, a purebred Short
horn breeder, uses the pasture
to keep up registered animals
needing attention. This pasture
seeding is one of the recommen
dations made by the Heppner
Soil Conservation district in a
farm plan written for Mr. Sher
man. FLOWER ARRANGEMENT

New Textiles on Market
Interest Women In Oregon
Characteristics and labeling
of new textiles and textile fin
ishes coming on the market
have been extremely popular
subjects to homemakers this
year.
A new shrink-proofing process
known commercially as "Res
loom" and "Lanaset" has been
developed for wool socks, mit
tens, sweaters and blankets.
Near the end of the war the Ar
my was buying about seven mil
lion pairs of socks per month
which had undergone this pro
cess. Treated socks washed two
hours in Army washers shrunk
10 per cent and were soft when
they dried. Untreated socks
shrunk 30 per cent and were
stiff. This shrink-proofing pro
cess is not the same as "pre
shrunk." Nylon curtains have proved
unsatisfactory to homemakers
because ultra violet rays of the

sun disintegrate them. Fiber-
glas, fire resistant and dustproof
makes excellent draperies as it
is not affected by the sun. On
the other hand, fiberglass is un
suitable in weaing apparel as It
irritates the skin.
"Fortisan," one of the newest
rayons, is one of the strongest
fibres known. These yarns were
used in the war as flare chutes.
The lightness and sheerness of
Fortisan is akin to nylon and
makes it popular for evening
dresses.
"Spell bound Print" comes on
to the market as the finest in
texture of any cloth made, being
one denior in yarn size. This
rayon is similar to balloon cloth
cotton. "Sell-bound Print" will
be used in semi-dressy dresses.

Home Freezer Discussed in
Illustated Bulletin
The question of buying or
building a home freezer, or whe
ther to get one at all, involves
many angles that differ from
those connected with an ordin
ary domestic refrigerator, accord
ing to authors of a new O.S.C.
station cicular, "Buying or Build
ing a Home Freezer." This bulletin-,
by F. E. Price and N. G.
Cropsey, agricultural engineers,
does not attempt to tell what or
which is best, but does list the
features to be considered and
the advantages and disadvan
tages of each.
Rntal of a freezer locker In
town may be the preferable me
thod of obtaining frozen foods
for the family, the authors point
out. This is often the cheaper
method, but for many families
the convenience of a freezer in
the home and the high quality
of food obtained cannot be mea
sured in dollars and cents, they
add. I
A comparison between top
opening and front opening cab
inets is made. The former is us
ually less expensive to build, the
doors do not freeze shut so of
ten, and frost accumulation is
usually much slower. On the
other hand with the front ope
ning types the packages are j
much more accessible, they have
better circulation of air, more
even temperature distribution,
and occupy less floor space for
given capacity.
One important factor to re
member in either buying or
building is whether the freezer
will pass through a 30-inch door,
or at least through the door to
the room where it is to be kept,
the authors warn.
The 16-page bulletin is illus
trated with both photographs
and drawings and gives a list
of plans for home-built freezers
which may be obtained for a
nominal charge from county ex
tension agents.

owner and manager, who was in

been enjoying good patronage,
he said.
Roads leading to the springs
are in fair shane for this time

A carcass of a cow or horse acts
as the decoy. Over 5000 baits

Many kills are unaccounted for

ers have been destroyed. The
airplane has proved its worth in
dropping poison baits to such
stations. Among other advan
tages, the plane covers miles of
tortuous foot travel in minutes
time and leaves no tell-tale
man-scent at the "decoys." Set
ting the steel traps for Mr. Coy
ote is an art in itself.
In comparison, McDaniels not
ed 75 deer carcasses, result of
coyotes, in the winter of 1916,
and only four in 1947. A milder
winter with available feed, fos
tered more vigorous game ani
mals. But even the sturdy buck
becomes eligible for slaughter
during the weak months when
he sheds his antlers.
Government trappers receive
a base salary and may not claim
bounty for their kills. Mr. Mc
Daniel virtually "lost" $700 thru
Gilliam county bounties during
the month of April. When ani
mals are prime, -the hides are
turned over to the government.
At other times, only the ears are
presented for evidence.
Sportsmen of Oregon should
voice their praise for the work
of these men In the perpetuation
of a marketable crop of upland
game birds and deer. Stockmen
who run cattle or sheep on the
forest and range owe their suc
cess to this program. To these
unsung crusaders who carry on
without praise or reward, we
heartily commend you.
