Two Conservation Circulars Issued By Oregon State Two new circulars, "Trashy Fal low for Conservation" and "Wa ter Conservation the Hydrologic Cycle," have been released by the Oregon State college agricul tual extension service. Howard Cushman, OSC exten sion soil conservation specialist and author of "Trashy Fallow for Conservation," says this farming practice is the most effective in dividual erosion control method ever developed for summer fal low land. It utilizes the prin ciples of the surface of the soil, thus providing maximum protec tion from wind and water. The circular gives information on how to prepare trashy fallow, its effect on soil moisture, wheat yields and nitrogen fertilizer. It also lists the following "workable tillage program" for handling trashy fallow: make the initial tillage with a sweep or chisel type implement; fol low sweep or chisels with a skew treader to control cheatgrass and to spread esidue uniformly over soil surface; control spring and summer weeds with a rotary rod weeder; apply nitrogen fertilizer Mrs. Earl Briggs, Mrs. Ed Kunze, Mrs. Florence Root, Mrs. Rollin Bishop, Mrs. Tim Rippee, Mrs. Louise Earwood and Mrs. I. T. Pearson went to the Garden club convention of the Blue Moun tain District at Stanfield May 4.

Moore, OSC extension conserva tion circular. Food and minerals necessary for life are carried through our bodies in water solutions, he ex plains. Grasses, grains, and other food and feed plants get the ele ments they need, carried in wa ter taken up through tiny root lets. The circular gives the follow ing definition for the "hydro logic cycle". Water moves into the air from the surface of lakes, streams, ground, plants and the ocean as a gas called water va por.. It comes back down as precipitation rain or snow. The problem is that more of the water comes back down in some places than in others. Some places get too much and some not enough. A chart shows how much pre cipitation is received during Ore gon's hydrologic or water cycle, and where it falls. Information Br Biu Paulson "1 guess I like rain better than snow it's a lot easier to shovel!" is also given on how precipita tion is received throughout .the state is managed for the benefit of the farmer.
