Our Education Problem
The new advisory committee which was re
cently asked by the board of school distinct No. 1
to aid in working out an acceptable plan of new
school construction faces a problem which wil
take considerable effort and consciences thought
to solve. 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. There are a lot

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

r,n whim inev iiin-iiu iu
plant is eligible for certification
Certification rules include re
ctriftions on field history to pre
vent contamination by volunteer
planting from previous crops. To
avoid croD mixtures a certified

crop for one or more years.
nnp nf the nest ways to iu
A fln.in sped Is tO begin with
, -lnnn field. 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.
