Any school building program is a seri ous problem, but the fact that Ileppner's is long overdue makes it even tougher. , The board's action in asking the help of a eroun entirely outside the board or school off -c s C b i ve was wise. The committee, while t wiU have no actual power to make decisions in the matter, will be expected to .examine iUc en tire problem, attempt to learn the desires of the axpay ng public in regard to new construction, and to offer what is hoped will be a sound pro gram designed to fulfill the Immediate needs of u ,.hn Cvtnm as well as an overall program which will be workable for years to come. The committee members are not experts on school matters, but one of their biggest jobs will be to provide the board with "an outsiders' view of what is needed to bring the Heppner educational plant and system up to standard.

Just criticism alone, will oniy mane men harder but they will welcome anyone's sugges tion as to what facilities are needed and are want ed by the parents of the children who will use them From The County Agent's Office By N. C. Anderson Many questions are being asked these days relative to the spray mixiures iur annual control. With the cold, dry wea ther, many farmers are going to be dissappointed with results, es pecially in control of tar weed un less they increase amounts over applications which gave good control when weather conditions were ideal. Tw6 pints of 2,4-D per acre is essential if tar weed is to be effectively controlled this year. A mixture of one third 2,4,5-T and two thirds 2,4-D of 3.30 acid equivalent per gallon, iioH nt the rate of one and one- half pints per acre Is equal to two pints of 2,4-D per acre in trie tn trol of tar weed. When making this mixture it Is important to keep in mind that the 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T should both be of the ester form and that the acid equivalent per gallon is considered. It Is also very important that adequate amounts of water be applied. Farmers who have used approximately 10 gallons of wa ter per acre have found that their kills have been much better than where smaller applications are used. This is especially true in cold, dry weather as the weed plant is not growing as fast as in wet weather. The faster the weed is growing, the faster the 2,4-D is taken into the plant resulting in a good kill. A better leaf cover age, which is the resuu oi laigi-i water applications, assures more of the weed killer getting into the plant. Unless larger applications of water are used and 2,4-D or mix tures of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T in ..rp;..t over the recommended dosages for good weather is used this spring there will be many dissappointed farmers in Morrow County. A good sized double handful of fertilizer is approximately one pound. The Home gardner can use this measure rather than a scales in making applications of Com mercial fertilizer to laws and gardens. More on seed certification seems to be in order. Land requirements are an important part of seed certification. Before buying and planting high priced seedstock, should make sure the .

Most legume seed crops are inspected in the seed ling stage for cerlilieauon m w gon. The main reasons for this cwiilniT insnection are to check for volunteer plants of the crop to be grown for certification. To avoid expensive mistakes, we suggest growers study the cer tification rules carefully. Com plete rules for certification are on file in the county- extension agent's offimt. o , Frank W.
