Eleven farmers Indicated inter est in cooperating with this pro gram which was set to compare different rates and dates of ap plication of new, promising ma terials for morning glory con trol. The project was set up by request of several organizations and groups asking for more re search. Dean Swan, weed man from the Pendleton Branch Ex periment Station, is In charge of the accelerated research In the Columbia Basin. On May 22, Dean Swan and I inspected the fields which had been volunteer ed. Regardless of the amount of infestation in the county, it was difficult to find morning glory patches which were large enough in size for use in the research work. Patches in many cases which were large enough were not of uniform stand for comparisons. A few patches were inaccessible for treatment in the summer fallow and getting back Into for follow-up work in the next crop year. First treatments were applied on land farmed by C N Jones and sons In Cason Canyon on Monday of this week and Kenneth Turner ranch in Sandhollow. The main chemical to be checked Is the newly re leased. TBA which will be ap plied at various dates and rates. First rancher to make appli cation for field Inspection for seed certification Is Kenneth Smouse, lone. Kenneth has ap plied for certification on 50 acres of Burt wheat, which if passes field and bin inspection will be sold as certified blue tag seed. To be eligible for certification seed planted must be Oregon tagged or from another source. Land must not have grown an indistinguishable variety or an uncertified lot of the same var iety for at least two years pre vious to planting time. Field in spection tolerances allow no flag smut and only O.lO P" cent of loose smut. No rye is allowed and only 0.05 percent of other wheat varieties. An extremely weedy field regardless of type of weed will be rejected, how- STAR THEATER Thursu Fri., Sat.. June 5, 6. 7, Crash Landing Gary Merrill, Nancy Davis, Irene Hervey.

For those who have grain seeded eligible for certification applications can be obtained at this office and should be made out in the very immediate fu ture so that a schedule of field inspections can be worked out. The certification fee is 60c per acre with a minimum charge of $5. While there Is some demand for certified seed each year there is much greater demand for just plain clean seed. With the large amount of rye showing up in many fields throughout the county this office has had a number of requests for sources of clean seed wheat recently. If there are growers who have an exceptionally clean field of wheat, regardless of variety, we would appreciate knowing of it. Many times farmers like to in spect the field before harvest from which they are to receive their seed. Those who are inter ested in providing clean seed could be of much help by re porting such fields soon. With the frequent showers and cloudy weather the past week, the European grain aphid infes tations have seemed to multiply rapidly. Before this favorable weather came along, the hot weather seemed to have discour ager multiplication. At least one infestation was found this week which averaged considerably more than the 25 aphids per head which seems to be the breaking point where control measures might pay. This is true if the grain is in the early dough, milk stage, or earlier. Infestations seem to be spotted and conditions vary from one field to the next so a rather careful field Inspection is nec essary. Besides taking into con sideration the stage of develop ment of the grain, it is necessary to determine the amount of aphid predators in the field as these will Influence the need for control. If control is indica ted, good results have been ob tained by the application of 4 ounces of actual Parathion per acre or from ten to twelve ounces of actual Malathion per acre. Malathlon is less effective when temperatures are cool. Parathion is a dangerous material to use and only experienced appli cators or those willing to exer cise the greatest of care should use It. tgjgggp With our county weed spray program In full swing we are attempting to get over the roads getting annual as well as per ennial weed infestations taken care of as well as possible. Dur ing the past week a few farmers have reported to this office weed infestations for which we are grateful. Our weed control pro gram can be much more effect ive if everyone will report weed Infestations which we might have missed or have not yet reached. Weed infestations can be reported to this office or by calling the Morrow county road shop.

While the details of the pro ject were not released in full, the air force estimated the cost of the bomarc site to be about $10 million. . Construction will be handled by the Corps of Engineers as are four other projects In the Northeastern part of the United States. In choosing this Oregon location, the air force gives tes timony of the importance of this installation to national defense. The project will help Oregon's economy and is in line with re quests I have made of the de fense establishment to make greater use of Oregon's strategic location and industrial poten tial for national defense, said Senator Morse. ASK HIGHER PHONE RATES The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co has asked Public Utilities Commissioner Howard Morgan for an increase in rates averaging about 7 per cent to bring an estimated additional $5,000,000 annually. The last rate Increase was for 4.9 per cent, made in January 1957, just before Commissioner Morgan took office. According to an estimate by a company offic ial the average raise (without taxes) would be approximately 75 cents a month on a statewide basis, which would include low rate suburban and four-party lines. Several weeks ago Morgan suspended rate increases asked by West Coast Telephone Co that would return the company an extra $600,000 annually. The sus pension is for not more than six months. During the time the PUC will investigate the rates and hold public hearings. Commissioner Morgan says it will require considerable time for his office to assemble re quired information and adjust the fair return prescribed by law. If there is to be a raise it will not become operative for several months. ZONING UNIT INVALID In ruling the East Washington County Zoning District Wednes day the State Supreme Court left almost all fire and zoning districts in the state under a cloud, because state court did not rule on the constitutionality of a 1957 law to validate them. A year ago the state court rul ed the district invalid because voters in elections to create zon ing and fire districts must be property owners. The Legislature at its special session in October passed a law to permit any registered voter to vote in elections to create such districts. In Wednesday's opinion, the high court held that the East Washington District still is il legal and does not exist. The opinion, however, can't apply to other districts because the state court invalidated the district on THIRTY YEARS A00 From the file of the Gazette Times June 7. 1928 James N Luper Is spending a few days here from his home in the Willamette valley.

The opinion was written by Chief Justice William C Perry. NEW BANK EXAMINER The state Banking Board an nounced Wednesday the ad vancement of JFM Slade, career employee of the department, up to superintendent of banks in Oregon. Slade will succeed Mar shall A Case of Portland in the $10,000 a year post. The new examiner was edu cated in London and for 27 years was employed by the Westmin ister Bank, Limited, one of En gland's biggest banking firms. POUTICAL SHORTS The man with the jug is back in politics. Elmer Deetz, Canby dairyman, will run for the Senate in Clackamas County. He led a winning battle to do away with Oregon's milk control law when he was a member of the Legislature In 1955. Walter Pearson, Portland, pro- sales taxer and one of 12 Demo cratic holdovers in the Senate claims he has enough votes to elect him president of the Senate next year. BoD Elfstrom, Marion County, will be speaker of the House of Representatives if the House goes Republican.

Our booth at the fair will pay $10 and $15 for first with Mrs Fred Mankin heading it we are reasonably sure of first. Then comes the Cowboy Breakfast with Dimples heading it again this year. Our first choice of horse judg-1 es we didn't get, but Merlin Rob inson has quite a list to pick from and will come up with one soon. Fred Mankin, superintendent of the horse show, is cramped for display stalls for mares and colts and stallions. Also for suit able tieing space for other stock. If the fair board hasn't the funds for the box stalls at this time, the manger back of the Wrang ler barn can be fixed over with out much expense and labor fur nished by the Wranglers as us ual. It would add greatly to the convenience and safety of stock being shown. Our next playday will be at the Don Evans ranch in Sand Hollow on June 15, which is the last scheduled playday of the season.

And don't forget the arena dir ector, Bill Smethurst, who plays a mighty important part of keep ing the contestants busy and the show interesting. The club thanks Fred Mankin for gathering In contributions at the gate, $43.00. To Ethel New man for operating the concession stand, netting $22.05. To Moyer for moving his pump down and soaking the grounds before the show. And as usual, last of all we thank the Lord that made all our enjoyment possible; for soaking the grounds as it be came dusty, just before the show was over. Giving all a desire to head for home. Some of the comical things; Newman trying to rope, getting the saddle horn hooked under his breast bone, hat down over the face, his loop around his neck; Jim Farley leaving the arena with appearonce of hav ing just been dunked in a water ing trough, trying to give his turn at roping to someone, strangely enough there were no takers. During the Sage Riders Wranglers playday a week ago last Sunday, Dimples fed $63 worth of stew. Marion Green gathered in $75 at the gate (if Newman will quit spending).
