Donald Peterson, eightmile At present the CCC has a bin type
rancher, this week planted a new
five row windbreak to protect
his new farmstead which he is
laying out. The planting of six
hundred foot rows of Caragana,
Black Locust, Russian olive, and
Australian Pine will protect the
farmstead from south and west
winds. Rows were spaced twelve
feet with Pines, Locust and Rus
sian olive spaced twelve feet
within the row. Caragana a low
growing bushy type shrub, which
stops ground winds, was planted
one foot apart to make a dense
windbreak.
Here is something new that
we have recently read of. It is
called a Herbagere or the Pasture
in the Barn. It is a miracle plant
growing machine which adver
tise from seed to feed in six days.
Pamphlets claim that it will
grow approximately one-hundred
and forty tons of top green
feed on an eight square yard sur
face yearly. It grows corn, oats,
wheat, barley any time of the
year. Machines are working at
Tillamook and Salem. Maybe
the seeding we discussed earlier
in the column will be out-dated
before they are established with
a machine like this.
Last Friday's "Cull Cow" sale
sponsored by the Umatilla
County Cattleman's Association,
with proceeds to go to the Oregon
Cattleman's Association brought
in $1100. This money is to be
used by the Oregon Cattleman's
Association to assist with pro
jects in an attempt to bolster
falling cattle prices. At least
one Morrow County rancher con
tributed to the sale. Walter
Wright, Heppner was listed as
one of the consigners of "slightly
used" cows.
The CCC Is again faced with
a bin storage for storing grains.

The March, 1956 Agriculture
Bulletin, published by the Ore
gon State Department of Agricul
ture pave Morrow County quite a
write-up entitled, "Oregon Bangs
Proeram Jumps a Mountain
Range". The item pointed out
that Morrow County becomes the
first beef county In the state to
receive a modified, certified Dm
cellosis free area certificate for
a successful testing drive. Sta
tistics on the final clean-up Job
of the last four years showed that
26,978 cattle were tested, mciua-
Incr some repeats, 852 herds were
tested, including a few repeat
tests on some herds, with 32
herds infected. In these herds
186 animals reacted to the tests
which was .6 of 1 reactors. In
order to become a modified, cer
tified Brucellosis free area 95
of the herds must be free from
Brucellosis with 99 of the cat
tle free of the disease.
Announcement has lust been
made of a field day to observe
beef feeding trials at Milton on
Friday afternoon April 6. Those
interested will meet at the county
agents office in Milton at 2:uu p
m.

Augmented with the orange

Democrats are battling against a

governor elected directly by the
people. They claim that in states
having a lieutenant governor me
government is kept nearer the
will of the people than when
a senate president succeeds to a
vacancy in the office of governor.
Can it be that this is what is
irking the Democrats? No Demo

REDO STATE BUILDING
The State Board of Control has
a low bid of $111,828 to remodel
tho state agricultural building
east of the Capitol. The high bid
was $124,703.
The low bid is more than three
times the original cost of the
building built in 1927. The com
parison of costs is no more
amazing than a comparison of
si7e and growth of the state de
partments which have occupied
it or now do.
When first occupied and for
many years it was known as the
State Printing Office. I his de
partment occupied the main
floor and half of the large base
ment. The other half housed the
testing department of the State
Hichwav Department where test
ing and busting concrete blocks
was normal procedure. That got
on the printer's nerves and con

All there was of the Agricultural
Department then was housed on
