The award has been offered each year at state fair since 1950 by the Oregon Milk ing Shorthorn Breeders associa tion. Previous winners of a calf are not eligible for competition.

James Elings, extension ani mal husbandry specialist, and Joe B. Johnson, acting head of the Oregon State college animal hus bandry department, recommend that steers of these breeds be 12 to 15 months old for exhibition and marketing.

The publication, "Freezing Meat, Poultry, Fish, Seafoods, and Game," stresses that using poor packaging materials can re sult In loss of 10 percent gross weight of meat being frozen. Selecting high-quality products to use for freezing is another im portant factor, advises the bulle "WE CONQUERED EROSION AND PRODUCED MORE WHEAT THAN EVER and did it since 1950, thanks to the ex perience and recommendations of War ren Marshall, now agronomist for the, Knettle Farm Management Service . . . Our program included soil building thru fertilization, a planned soil-building and money-making rotation, and new and dif ferent tillage methods." So states Jay Ray burn who, with his father, D. J.

The treatment should be made soon after cutting. If anyone has a question on the value of grass as a source of organic matter for the soil, see Ralph Taylor, rancher near Cecil. Visiting his irrigated ranch last week, I found he had just completed plowing up 1950 and 1951 seedings of Intermediate wheatgrass. While these seed ings were made in 24 and 30 inch rows for seed production, they still necessitated the need for plowing with one bottom plow in plaoe of the ordinary . three bottoms pulled by the tractor the neason, too much sod and roots for the three plow tractor to handle a larger load. The soil, a sandy fine loam, plowed like an original sod field. While roots wouldn't develop quite so rapidly and numerous on dry land as on this irrigated ground, many of our soils in the higher rainfall areas would profit from a chance to get into this sod pro ducing grass for a short rotation with wheat, r;f(Mn innhps covers all me Heppner country,, and it reaches over the entire country.

The county agent will be gone from the county on Thursday and Friday this week while attending a district conference of Columbia Basin Agents. The conference is one of the several scheduled for the year to keep county agents better posted on newer develop ments in agriculture as well as administration problems in the county.

In specting it a few days ago found it from four to six inches high. The ability to start early in the spring and its quick recovery after cutting is a quality of the variety. It will be interesting to watch its growth and the effect of spring frosts on the growtli it has made this spring. The field will be found just over the railroad tracks about one and one-fourth miles west of the Jordan elevator. One can not help seeing the field now as it stands out in green from all other fields along the bottom.
