Word recently from Dean Swan, Pendleton branch experiment station was to the effect that morning glory research work would be intensi fied with quite a little of the work to be done in the Colum bia Basin counties. Experiments will be established on summer fallow and in stubble following harvest. It will now be necessary to locate areas where experi ments can be established on farms here in Morrow county. We will need three areas about 200 by 150 feet. Various mater ials will be used at different rates and dates of applications. We would appreciate hearing from any farmers who would be interested in cooperating In this research work by providing a plot whore Morning Glory In festations are present. While we are talking about morning glory it Is timely to an nounce that there will be an ACP practice payment for perennial weed control this year.

For those who need addition al grain storage space on their farms can get five year, 4 loans to finance cribs or bins. The purpose of the program is t) help farmers obtain more on farm storage, particularly where t Is needed to enable them to participate in the price support program. Any farm operator, share tenant, share land lord or producer partnership is eligible to participate in the farm stor age facility and equipment loan program. Loans may be obtained on storage for wheat, corn, oats, rye and barley. While the struct ures financed do not have to be used for commodities which are under price support loans, they must meet the same storage re quirements. A farmer may bor row up to 80 of the cost of new storage bins, cribs, or other approved structures. The loan may be repaid in four annual Installments with the first in stallment due at the end of the John Coder, Harlan Devin and'Jlrst year.

The experiment 'was to have been concluded in 1957, however, due to the evident carryover of nitrogen residues in those plots It was decided that much good information could be gathered by determining yields the next crop after fertilization. Those plots that were harvested in 1956 will be harvested again this year. In plots harvested last year it was found that the re sidual effect in some cases re sulted in yields higher than was received the year the fertilizer was applied. A companion fert ilizer plot is being established at each site to compare residual with current applications.
