about this time, li.tnchers are
anxious to get the stock out of
concentration areas to help over
come the disease problems. Cows
will soon get a taste of green
grass some- place and will be
reluctant to eat hav and other
dry material. These factors point
out a problem, but do little as
far as giving us any answers.
Farlv spring feed for range
livestock continues to be a prob
lem. Since range management Is
tied so closely to managing the
forage resource, we need to take
good look at our forage re-
sources to see what is avatiaoio.
Native range that has been
deferred in 19CI and has an
adequate amount of carry over
material can serve as a satis
factory earlv sprlnir ranee. The
old. dry material will be utilized
quite well by the livestock and
at the same time thev may get
little crcon-Plckinc from some i
of the earlv growing grasses and
forbs. If native range is used this
way. livestock should be remov
ed about the first of May or when
the bluebunch wheatgrass is
putting up about 3 or 4 Inches
of growth. This will allow the .
native bunchgrass to continue to
grow, build rood reserve, re
tain Its vigor, and make maxi
mum production. We should em
phasize that grazing of blue-
bunch vvheatgrass between the
year ! dates of approximately May 1
and June 15 can be very detri
mental. This I the time of the
growing period when root re
serves are being depleted to al
low the plant to make rapid
growth.
Stockmen who must graze
their native ranges during this
period of time should certainly
stock them lightly enough that
thev are utilized very lightly
by about June 15 to July 1. Fol
lowing this period, range could
! bo subjected to heavier grazing
with little or no damage to the
native bunchgrass plants.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK IS PEOPLE
...Serving the Banking Needs of Other Oregon People
Extensive forest of pine and white fir surround the Bend area, and contribute to its
prosperity. Here First National's Bend branch manager has donned safety headgear to
watch the harvesting of a 300-400-year-old Ponderosa pine, diameter approximately 40
Inches at the cut. Pine is logged selectively, the individual trees being selected for matur
ity, vigor, density of stand, and to permit light to reach the understory, or oncoming
crop of new growth. It takes a faller about five minutes to drop such a tree with a chain
saw. This tree will probably contain more than enough lumber to build an average house.
Heppner Branch Man
ager John Venard and
hit staff have a total
of 100 year experi
ence In banking. They
know people and con
ditions in the Heppner
area. Consult these
hometown people for
