County Agent News . .
By N. C Andenoa
At this time of the year when
thoughts turn t othe control of
perenial noxious weeds, Morrow
county farmers should give con
siderable thought to a program
for noxious weed control follow
ing through with proper spacing
of sprays designed for the best
control of these weeds. This is
the fifth year that Morrow county
has been operating a weed con
trol program for eradicating per
enial noxious weeds from road
sides and the county owned land.
The Oregon state highway de
partment and Union Pacific rail
road have co-operated with a
control program on their rights of
ways. The time has now arrived
when enforcement of the district
wet'd control law is facing a
county court. This means that
those farmers who have not car
ried on a weed control program
will bo soon asked to do so or
steps will be taken to control
these weeds. As we have stated
many times in the past, the pro
gram is outlined for working out
a watershed at a time working
down the drainage area to. get
away from reinfestation as much
as possible.
All farmers who have a weed
problem on their farms should
consider the excellent ACP pay
ments in this years weed control
program which will enable them
to receive approximately 50 of
the cost of their weed control
from ASC. It is getting that time
of the year when such a program
should be in effect. Particulars
and prior approval for weed con
trol when participating in the
ASCP program is available at the
county agent's office.
Hog Price Takes
Another Increase
Now that summer is here, you
may be interested in some work
that was done at the Imperial Val
ley field station in California on
the effects of shade for cattle. It
was found that an unshaded cow
standing in an air temperature of
100 degrees Farenheit has to dis
pose of enough heat in a ten
hour period to bring nine gallons
of ice water to the boiling point.
To make 100 pounds of gain dur
ing mid-summer it was found
that from 200 to 300 pounds was
needed for those without shade
during the overall period.
DRIVE TO BUY EQUIPMENT
A representative of the Pendle
ton post of the American Legion,
Jo Ann Hay, is in this area on a
magazine subscription drive to
raise funds for the purchase of
special polio oxygen equipment
by the post.
Such equipment, when pur
chased, will be made available
to all doctors and residents of the
area, it was said.
POMONA GRANGE TO MEET
Pomona Grange will meet on
Saturday, June 25 at Boardman at
10:30 a. m. There will be a din
ner at 12 noon and the program
at 2:00 p. m., with Allen Tom as
the speaker. The public is in
vited to the program.

Wheat continues to pile up as
another crop draws near. By the
time all deliveries of wheat have
been made to the commodity
credit corporation under the 1954
crop price support program, about
100 million bushels will be stored
in a total of 512 ships of the U.
.S Maritime reserve fleet. The
ships are anchored at 64 east and
west coast locations. As of Janu
ary 1, 1955, about 72 million bus
hels of CCC owned wheat were in
such emergency ship storage has
been provided by 105 ships at
Olympia, Washington and Astor-
,ai Oregon anchorages, and 30
additional ships at Jones Point, In
the Hudson River, New York. As
for the present, about 17 million
bushels of wheat are stored in 75
ships in the Hudson River with 30
ships still to be filled, 25 million
bushels are stored in the 112
ships in (he James River, Vir
ginia, 20 million bushels are
stored in 87 ships at Astoria, with
75 ships yet to be filled, and 10
million bushels are stored in 43
ships at Olympia with 30 still
to be filled.

fat hogs rose another $1.40 to a
phenomenal $22.20 cwt. a.t the
Hermiston livestock auction Fri
day, Delbert Anson, manager of
the sale, reports. The record price
was in line with higher prices
at the Chicago market, and was
paid for better quality dry-fed

ments Friday, including 351 head
of cattle compared with 348 the
previous Friday, 122 hogs com
pared with 171 and 33 sheep com

and sheep volume, while rela
tively small, reflected haying
operations. Currently being con
signed are the first grass cattle

and Washington contributed to
broad active demand.

who have moved Buick more solidly than ever into
the charmed circle of America's top best sellers.
But why? Why this phenomenal swing to Buick
on the part of people who can choose any new car?
Because Buick's a buy-definitely.
And because it's a bold beauty that catches the eye
and holds it-that's for sure.
And certainly because it's supremely level of ride
-and a sweet joy to handle -and a mighty bundle
of high-voltage V 8 power to melt away the miles
and the high hills.
But most of all, because Buick this year is a perform
