Page 8 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, July 17, 1952 Selective Service Clarifies Regulations Oregon Slate Headquarters, Se lective Service System, today called attention to the fact that many registrants appeared to have a misunderstanding as to when the advent of a child be comes a change in marital status and should be reported. "It seems that most registrants have the idea that the change of marital status", said Col. Francis V. Mason, Deputy State Director, "doesn't occur, or need to be re ported, until a child is born. In reality this change of marital sta tus is effective as soon as it is definitely established that the registrant's wife is pregnant." Col Mason went on to explain that Selective Service Regulations do not permit a Local Board to grant a 3-A classification if the registrant reports the pregnancy of his wife or the actual birth of a child for whom he is maintain ing a home after the Issue of his Order to Keport for Induction. "It is evident therefore," con GET YOUR KODAK FILM AT SAAGER'S PROMPT FINISHING SERVICE , Fly Time! see us FOR FLY SPRAYS SAAGER'S PHARMACY Phil Blakney, Owner eluded Col.

Prospects Bright For Improvement Of Oregon Ranges (Himpscs of possible future de velopments on the ranges of east ern Oregon were shown at the annual field day of the Squaw Butte-Harney range and live stock experiment station recently. Success with sagebrush spray ing and seeding of crested wheat grass for range improvement was reported. Preliminary results of! fertilizer experiments on native1 meadow caught the eye of many field day visitors. Donald Ilyder, range conserva tionist, indicated that chemical spraying of big sagebrush to re duce competition and improve forage production may be the key to tremenduous future develop ment of the vast eastern Oregon ranges. Ilyder announced suc cessful attempts to kill sagebrush with 2,4-D sprays. An 86 percent kill was reported using an oil emulsion of butyl ester of 2,4-D in May. Water emulsion of the same chemical gave 84 percent kill. Another avenue fur range im provement was pointed up by de monstrations of successful seed ing of crested wheatgrass on land cleared of sagebrush. Experi ments have shown that heavy rollers can lie used effectively to get higher germination and sur vival in dry land seedings. Both drilled and broadcast seedings were improved by rolling. Best results came with rolling before drilling and after broadcasting. Early results of fertilizer tests on native meadows have inspired hope for much greater hay pro duction. Clee S. Cooper, agrono mist for the station, reported that yield of dry forage was increased from IV4 tons an acre to more than 3 tons n acre by applying ammo phos fertilizer at various rates up to 500 pounds an acre.
