From The County Agent's Office County agents from the Col umbia Basin counties will meet In lleppner on Tuesday and Wednesday for an extension con ference on livestock practices and farm structures. Dr J C Miller, head, department of an imal husbandry and dairy; Dr James Oldfleld, llvcslock nut ritionist; Mike Hubcr. extension og engineer; John Landers and Dean Frlschknecht. extension animal husbandman, will be on hand to bring the agents up to date on livestock problems and new research dove lopmenU. Featured for the first day will be a tour visiting the Ebb Hughes ranch to sec his beef Improvement program, a good set of corrals and a grass alfalfa demonstration seeding. During the afternoon the group will visit the Donward Bergevln ranch, his feedlot operation, scales, hold ing pens, dipping vat. median iled feed mill and equipment used for gathering and hauling wheat chaff to his feedlot. There will be discussion on county live stock developments, with ques tion and answer periods of prob lems operators are having with in the county. Livestock struc tures, handling equipment, feed lot layouts, size drainage water ing, sanitation, and chutes will he discussed by Mike Huber, ex tension engineer. One day will be spent on the basic principles of animal nut rition, formulating rations for different classes of livestock In cluding cost supplements, basic feeds, livestock management as Influenced by nutritional re quirements, a review of feed testing services at the college and an outline of assistance that agents might need to better fur nish the answers to livestock problems. We hope we will be better able to help livestock op erators with some of their ques tions after we have had this review. By N C ANDERSON with ordinary range should be continued to provide this Infor mation to those who might be planning a range improvement program. One such comparison made last year at the Alex Lindsay range In lower Sand Hollow showed a yield of 7.0 forarjo. dry basis per acre compared to 400 pounds for age, dry basis per acre on un improved native range. The com mittee also agreed that some research was needed on the ben efits of supplementing native range In mid summer with pro tein for best gains of both cow and calf. The Interest In this comes from Information that pro tein in dry land pasture drops sharply to 7 or 896 protein at this time of the year and that cattle will do much better If given a protein supplement. The committee will attempt to find someone Interested In carrying out this project on their range this summer. They also planned to seed a plot of bitter brush to determine Its place In a sum mer cattle range. Much Interest was shown In the range Im provement work underway by Wilkinsons. They felt that when this had become well established that the committee should spon sor a tour to see the practices. Wllh Frank Anderson as chair man, the committee Is composed of Harvey Smith, W E Hughes, Bill Scrlvner, Nell Beamer and Don Heliker. Members of the range and pasture Improvement committee appointed by the Morrow County Livestock Growers Association met last Thursday evening to draft some projects for the year. They agreed the projects started In 1959 to compare forage pro duction of alfalfa grass seedlngs Cr- STAR THEATER Thurs FrU Sab. April 21. 22. 23 Cast A Long Shadow Audle Murphy, Terry Moore.
