gin a new farm record book.
With complex income tax re
turns necessary everyone will
want to start the new year with
farm records that will make in
come tax reporting time easier.
When you buy a book for keep
ing these records make sure it
is set up to make income tax re
ports simple and sure. Where you
obtain the record book is imma
terial but if you are looking for
a good one they are available at
our office. There are two to
choose from one adapted to
cash income and the other to the
accrual basis. These are made
available to this office from the
Oregon State college at cost.
They sell for twenty-five cerits.
What should be of interest to
all Morrow county farmers is a
statement recently made by E.
R. Jackman, extension specialist
in farm crops at Oregon State
college. This statement is that
Oregon farmers could make their
biggest contribution to the grain
saving program by applying
2,4-D to fall sown wheat fields
next spring. He believes that the
harvest can be increased by
some two million bushels if en
ough farmers use this weed kill
er in their weedy wheat fields.
"Oregon grows roughly a mil
lion acres of wheat mostly fall
wheat and mostly in the Colum
bia basin where rains have been
generous this fall," says Jack
man. "About a third of the fall
seeded grain has enough weeds
to reduce yields and some of it
is so weedy that a good crop is
impossible without treatment."
Jackman believes that a 7-bu-shel
average benefit will result
from treating fall sown wheat
and oat fields the latter in Wes-
The grain saving program and
high cost of grain is having some
effect on methods for 4-H club
livestock feeding. Cal Monroe,
assistant state club leader, re
minds club members that they
should make use of all cheaper
feeds as far as possible. Good,
green, leafy hay can replace a
part of the grain for your fat
beef animals. Heavy feedings of
hay are especially desirable in
the early part of the feeding per
iod. Hay promotes growth and
the development of a good mid
dle which makes for greater
feed capacity through the feed
ing period.
Members of the 4-H beef clubs
were entertained last Thursday
evening, December 18, at a
Christmas party at the new
home of the Markham Bakers
near lone. The twenty 4-H club
members present, with their par
ents and younger brothers and
sisters enjoyed the evening play
ing games and singing with an
exchange of gifts, lunch and
Christmas sacks of nuts and
candy later in the evening.
The 4-H club members were
especially pleased with the play
room with fireplace where the
Christmas party was held. The
club members are looking for
ward to another 4-H Christmas
party at the Baker farm home.
.
The county agent wishes all
4-H club members a very Merry
Christmas and a Happy New
Year.

HELP PEACE BY CUTTING
rOOD WASTE Travelers who
have recently returned from Eng
land and other parts of Europe
report that they have witnessed
a great deal of hunger abroad.
Prevention of food waste in Am
erica will enable more food to be
saved to help bring about peace
in the world. Wheat and meat
are especially needed. Trapping
of rodents or keeping them out
with fine woven wire barriers
can often save food In farm store
rooms. Watching the storage
temperatures of potatoes, apples,
onions, cabbage, squash and
other stored foods, and provid
ing ventilation without freezing
will help prevent waste. Canned
foods need cool storage above the
freezing point. Waste can be pre
vented by planning meals to use
up seasonal foods before they
spoil; buying and cooking the
right quantity of food; full util
ization of foods; drying leftover
bread to prevent moldine and us-
I lng it in puddings and dressings;
I keeping refrigerator defrosted
and clean; freezing leftovers in
some cases; keeping milk in the
refrigerator at all times; quick

is being stressed at this time,

extra dollars in their pocket as
