NhfdJv the u- Department
Lee has developed a method
01 comromng weeds and volun-
jeer crop plants without harm
Ing a new crop. To do this, he
prepares a seedbed in change
over fields in the fail, bringing
feed seeds to the soil surface
and then kills the weeds and
volunteer crop plants when they
emerge by spraying with a non
residual herbicide.
Grass seeds for the new crop
are planted very early in the
spring, just below the surface
of the soil, without further seed
bed preparation. The new crop
is able to grow rapidly, without
competition, and produce a pure
stand the first year.
Several herbicides have been
tested. Paraquat and a combin
ation of IPC plus 2, 4 D have
shown most promise. Timing of
the herbicide applications has
a marked effect on degree of
success. December and January
applications are more effective.
This method could be applied
In other geographic areas, to
save grass seed rjroduecrs both

a change-over of crops, it was
noted. Growers could move
quickly to take advantage of
favorable prices, keep each field
productive every year, and sell
crops at least two years sooner

A new credit service to helD
low-Income families In rural
areas raise their incomes Is now
available In Oregon, according
to State Director Robert V. Pierce,
Farmers Home Administration.
Pierce said the new service
opens up Farmers Home Admin
istration credit aid for the first
time to many low-Income rural
families who previously were
unable to obtain either public
or private loans to improve their
earnings.
The Farmers Home Adminis
tration office at Pendleton is ac
cepting applications in Uma
tilla, Morrow, Sherman and
Wasco counties for loans up to
$2,500 to finance farming enter
prises, small family businesses,
trades and services. Rural co
operatives serving low-income
families and providing services
and facilities not otherwise
available may also be eligible
for credit under the program.
Borrowers will be provided
continuing management aid to
help them make a success of
their farming enterprises or new
businesses.
Farmers Home Administration,
a U. S. Department of Agricul
ture agency, will administer the
new loan service under recently
delegated authority from the Of
fice of Economic Opportunity.
Liberalized loan terms and
conditions for participating low-
income families allow for in
terest rate of 4Vs percent.
To be eligible for the new
rural credit program, an appli
cant must live in a rural area
have an income that does nol
cover basic family necessities, be
unable to obtain credit from
other sources, including the reg
ular loan program of the Farm
ers Home Administration, and
show a reasonable promise of
succeeding in the enterprise to
be financed by the loan.
A cooperative, to be eligible,
must be primarily composed of
and serve low-income rural
families and be unable to ob
tain credit from other sources.
In addition to the new credit
service the Farmers Home Ad
ministration serves all rural
counties in Oregon with loans
to finance farm operations, buy
and enlarge larms, construct rur
al housing and develop com
munity water systems, recreat
ion areas and grazing land. It
also provides a program of
emergency Hood loans, water
shed loans, and rural renewal
