paper lulrw and mnkluc our home here,
We Know that M'-rmw riunty ha enjoyed having Bill and
France WIMman hi re n puMUher of the Oarette Time and
the many friend thy have made will ml them. We, too. have
di-vclojM-d a eUI regard fr them In the hrt time we have
kniwn them. At tiny to Ariruna. we wUh them the best and
at the name time wM to r a pirn appreciation to them for colng
out of their way to Introduce u here and for doing the thing
that help to mnke u feel at home.
Thl I the find Kmi of the paper under the ownership of
the Sherman since the effective date of the change In June 1,
date of 1 hit Ivue. However, the full contingent of Sherman
will hot to here until moving date of June 10 when Mr. Sher
man, 'ikwx late publisher, and the children arrive. The Wild
man will remain to help until tlint time.
A new publisher here, we come to Morrow county ex
pecting to put out a paper that will continue to be a credit lo
the entire area It wrves. It Is our desire that the Gazette-Time
be the written voice of the county and Its resident. In this con
nection, we expert to us' the paper to promote the best Interest
of the people and to help In the continuous progress of the county.
At the same time we hope that It will reflect the warmth and
cordiality for which the people of Morrow county are famous.
Tuesday evening, we took a drive to Hardmon and turned
off on the lildge Koad. We looked to the west to mountain peaks
that were silhouetted by the fiery red of the setting sun. The
vastness of Morrow county's green fields stretched all around us.
Strips of rich brow n of newly-worked still Interspersed the green.
Clusters of neat nnd prosperous farm buildings nestled In shelter
ed valleys. As we drove down the gravel road, a doe deer paused
at the edge of a lush field of growing wheat to give us at
quizzical eye.
It came to us In that moment how old timers, like Frank
Turner, can spend a lifetime here and love It. By contrast, we
can be classed as greenhorns, but already we feel the captlvatlon
that must grip nil newcomers who are fond of the wide open
space as they come to this Immense country.

As late spring approaches
many milk fat lambs in Morrow
county are reaching proper
weight and finish to go to mar
ket. Two weeks a'o. several of
our ranchers including Charlie
Daly, Bill and Tom Healy, Mar
Ion Finch, and Harold Wright-
there might have been others
topped their Iambs delivering
them to Cohn Livestock Com
pany. These Iambs, many of
which had access to creep all
their lives averaged in the top
u-lth nmf polne over 100
jds. umers win top lamos mis
week In the same pooling agree
ment. This Is the smart way to
market farm lambs as when feed
begins to dry up lambs will be
gin to shrink and lose their milk
fat. Even though the price of
fat lambs has been disappoint
ingly low again this spring we
are sure that this Is the top of
the market If other years Is an
Indication. If farm flock owners
have not checked their lambs for
weight and finish now would be
a good time to top them, Taking
advantage of the strong market
Silage-making time Is here. For
the best quality silage there
needs to be balancing of correct
practices. One of the more Im
portant aspects of silage making
is to put it up without juice
losses. Forage for silage should
be cut at pre-bloom stage of
growth to get high protein and
digestibility. At this stage the
dry matter per cent is about 20,
We need 30 to 35 dry matter
for the best silage, so either wilt
the early cut forage or add grain,
chopped hay, or beet pulp. Cows
will eat more pounds of dry mat
ter daily from the drier silage.
30 dry matter silage stored in
trench silos will require good
packing, rapid storage and a
tight top seal.
