ning Conference additional re
search on the control of morning
glory will be carried out this
year. 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. The per
ennial weed control practice was
taken out of the handbook two
years ago. After a considerable
number of attempts to get It
back In ns a practice we have
just received word that it has
just been approved. Those who

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

the proper levels of nitrogen
needed to produce the most
wheat. 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. Plots
have been staked out at the John

Last week Dr Charles M Smith,
soil scientist from the Pendleton
branch experiment station and
the agent located and staked out
wheat fertilizer plots which had
been used as experiments for
the 1956 and 1957 crop years.
These plots will be harvested in
'58 and '59 to determine the re
sidual effect of the fertilizer.
This is a part of the wheat fer

Tony's a good worker and has

Funny though-on days orT-Tony
hangs around the barbershop
listening to the political discus

Last Thursday, though, Tony
was there and wss speaking his

the sudden change, he smiled
and showed a brsnd-new set of
citizenship papers. "Now I talk

snij.
From where I sit, every citi
