and corral repair. The ideal
treatment for lengthening the
life of the green posts and poles
is a salt method preservative
treatment. A new bulletin re.
leased this week by Oregon State
college gives details on salt
treatment for green posts and
poles. It is very timely.
Many times the question is
asked whether it is worth the
trouble of treating posts with
them so easily available in the
mountains. Most of the cost of
a post is in setting it, rather than
its original cost. Seventy-two
sail treated posts installed 21
years ago 'at the Oregon State
College post farm are still stand
ing, although their tops are no
longer serviceable in most cases.

Many of our herds of calves are
now being weaned as livestock
comes in on or me taiige. wean-,
ing will continue from now,
through November depending on
the range area. It is during this
weaning season that sieps can be
taken for livestock improvement
in most beef herds. The first
one is selection of replacement
heifers while i hey are still run
ning with the cows. Look for good
growl hy calves that are fat, and
out of deep roomy cows. In other
words, look for the fat calf, lean
cow combination. The second
one is culling the cow herd. Take
mil old cows; cows with bad eyes;
cows with bad udders; cripples;
cows willi very late calves and
all cows that did not produce a
calf the past season unless for
some god reason. If these two
steps are followed, much can be
done in improvement of the herd
in an attempt to tiring the cost
of production closer in line with
our now low market.

ciation has just announced that
the second annual fall feeder sale
will be sponsored by them again
this year. It will be held in Cor
vallis, November 4. Due to an
overabundance of cheap hay and
roughage, there promises to be
a great demand for fall feeder
cattle in the valley.
Just this week, it was announ
ced that low barley prices, due to
a lot of damaged barley, that
livestock feeders are being at
tracted. Barley has about the
same feeding value as corn and
wheat, and with a lot of it selling
for $15 a ton there it will be fed to
livestock. If livestockmen 'in
Morrow county are interested in
consigning to this sale, they will
need to get their application
blanks in by October 15. That
leaves very little time. If you are
interested, contact this office for
an application blank.

A considerable amount of Gem
barley seed has been sold in the
Columbia Basin. Not much was
said about this variety, since it
was thought that there was a
very limited amount of seed.
However, it appears that a con
siderable amount 'was grown in
Idaho and shipped in to the Col
umbia Basin. It is a rough awned
spring variety that, while only
grown for several years at the
Moro Station, has a 52 bushel per
acre average. A limited amount
of this seed is still available if
there are farmers who have not
