Countv fairs are completed
with both the North Morrow Fair
and Morrow County Fair and
Rodeo a success again. Exhibits
were fewer in number in some
classes while livestock and poul
try were about the same as last
vear.
It is interesting to watch the
progress being made in agricul
ture in the county and 'there is
no better way than to watch the
quality of products exmonea
from vear to year. By compari
son I believe all will agree that
this was true of the exhibits 01
this years affairs.
Livestock exhibits were per
haps the most outstanding in this
respect. Fat and breeding animals
whether exhibited by 4-H, FFA
or in open class show the results
of constant selecting for better
quality. The bulls exhibited were
outstanding with these to go into
other herds' as sires to further
improve quality. Fat steers ex
hibited by 4-H members showed
that these boys and girls know
how to balance a ration and fin
ish out an animal. This was
shown by the fact that of 16 fat
steers, five graded prime, seven
choice and four good. All but one
of these top steers were picked
from herds of Morrow County
ranchers.
With county fair out of the way,
vacations over and children back
to school, thoughts turn to seed
ing of fall wheat for the 1952 crop.
While the majority of farmers
wait for rain before seeding
many are now well along with
seeding operations. These early
sedings are mainly Elmar, Elgin
and Golden varieties as they can
be safely seeded in late August
and early September while some
of our varieties like Rex and Or
fed yield better if planted later.
Field demonstrations are es
tablished each year by the Coun
ty Agent cooperating with farm
ers with the hopes of gathering
some information on varieties
and yields that will be of help to
our farmers. This year one var
iety test nursery was harvested,
grown at the Frank Anderson
farm Varieties, test weight and
yields are given:
Orfed, test wt. 61.5, yield 35.1;
Rio-Rex-Cheyenne, test wt. 61.5,
yield 33.4; Golden, test wt. 58.0
yield 33.2; Orfed-Turkey-Flor-ence

test wt. 61.0, yield 25.3; Elgin, test

Athena, test wt. 57.5, yield 25.2;
Alicel x Oro P-3, test wt. 61.0,
yield 21.1.
September and October are
good months to spray, dip or dust
sheep for controlling ticks. If the
flock is cleaned up in the fall,
there will be no ticks present to
go to lambs next spring. It is on
young lambs that ticks cause
much of their damage. DDT,
methoxychlor or rotonone will
give good control, are safe In
secticides, reasonable in price and
readily available.
As a dip, use 4 pounds of 50
percent wettable DDT or meth
oxychlor powder or 8 ounces of
5 percent rotonone to 100 gallons

of water.
For spraying, use 8 pounds of
50 percent wettable DDT or
methoxychlor powder to 100 gal
lons of water. For best results
when spraying, cover as much of
the animal as possible.
Dusting is a new method that
is becoming popular in many
states where sheep are grown in
numbers. Oregon has done some
dusting on a commercial scale
and such a duster is available
for commercial work here in Mor
row County. It is best used after
shearing for best penetration. If
only a few head are to be treat
ed for ticks, reasonably good re
sults can be obtained by dusting
with a 10 percent DDT dust. Rub
the dust into the fleece thor
