THE HERMISTON HERALD, HERMISTON, OREGON THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 1988 PAGE THREE Certified Seed Potatoes. FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION JA MESSAGE TO EVERY MEMBER. The Farm Bureau Co-operative will have netted gem seed potatoes on hand this week. These are from Weston Mountain and are certified. CLUB WORK PROGRESSING. The 4-H club work among the girls is progressing under the lead ership of Mrs. W. A. Hineline. The We-Can-Cannlng club was reorganized at a meeting held April 8, with the following officers elect ed: Edith Clarke, president; Dorcas Throop, vice president; and Mary Rodda, secretary-treasurer. At the present time eighteen girls have joined. In conjunction with the canning club a cooking club called the "Kookee” club was organized April 22, having an enrollment of eight. Officers tor that club are: Edna Turnblad, president; Helen Jendrze- jewski, vice president; Margaret Clarke, secretary-treasurer. Joint meetings will be held every two weeks and demonstrations by both clubs will provide the main en- tertainment feature, An added in centive for each girl to do her best work is provided this year. The two girls doing the best demonstration work during the summer will form a demonstration team to represent Hermiston at the state fair. The next meeing will be held May 6, at the home of Margaret and Edith Clarke. At this meeting a dele gate to the O. A. C. summer school at Corvallis will be chosen.

These dues may be paid at the Farm Bureau Co-operative. Umatilla Project Farm Bureau, By C. M. Jackson, Secretary. Asparagus Canning Season Opens This Week. The Hermiston Co-operative Can nery will be open for canning as paragus Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday mornings of each week until further notice..If possible give us notice in advance when you in- tend to can to save congestion in the cannery schedule. Cull Poor Producing Cows. There will undoubtedly be a de- cided shortage of feed this coming winter, in the Northwestern etatee, due to the severe spring freeze. Everything possible has been done to supplement the feed supply, by planting annual hay crops, and many silos that have not been in use will be used this winter. There is every evidence that the price of butterfat will not rise to the extent that feed prices will. We would like to urge our patrons to consider these facts, and by utilis ing the facilities of the cow testing association, cull out their poorer producers. Cows canot be culled oc casionally by guessing which are the beet producers. There will probably be a glut of dairy cows on the market as soon as the feed shortage begins to be felt this winter. It Is best to cull the poor cows and nell your excess feed, if you have any. Umatilla Co-operative Creamery, By M. G. Hedwall, Mgr. Stanfield Grange News. The grange dance Friday night, April 21, was quite well attended and an exceptionally good time was reported by many. The Stanfield Grange will meet May 6. The Irrigon Grange is planning on being with us and will bring the orchestra. Refreshments will be ser ved by the local grange. There will be three weeks be tween meetings this time as grange meets the first and third Saturday nights of each month, and there are five Saturdays in April. To Retain Purchasing Privilege Dues Must Be Paid. Some Forage Crops. By A. D. Smith This year, when so much of the alfalfa is frozen out and many far mers are being hard put towards producing sufficient feed to carry them through the winter, it will be necessary to plant catch crops, such as sudan cane, soybean and millet. No one in our community has done more investigating and experi menting with such crops than Mr. A. D. Smith, and I have asked him to relate his experiences for our members, knowing that Mr. Smith is a careful and methodical inves tigator and his conclusions can be depended upon. HENRY M. SOMMERER. riety of kaffir corn has a sweet stalk, and makes good feed, but the one time I tried it, I did not get a very good germination. I do not konw whether this is characteristic of it or not. Winter rye sowed now will furnish a lot of pasture, but it will not produce grain. If not pas tured too closely, it will furnish feed all season. Corn is not usually classed as a forage, but it produces a large amount of feed when it does well. Worms damaged it badly for me last year. I planted Minnesota King as a catch crop on June 17, and the worms did not bother it. I do not know now why. Last year I got one of the heaviest yields ever pro duced in the United States by plant ing Iowa Double Cross Hybrid No. 13. The yield was 36 bushels ahead of the man who took first at the Chicago show. I tested it on 3 dif ferent kinds of ground, using Idaho white dent as a check, and it near ly doubled the white dent. It re quired the entire season to make its growth. No double cross hybrid can be used more than once for seed, and for that reason there is no chance to acclimate it. So far as I know now, no state further west than Dakota can furnish seed at the present time. As it cannot be ac climated by us here, it is necessary to get seed from a locality with a climate as near ours as possible. The state of Iowa is divided into 3 zones for corn growing purposes, and the No. 13 corn is for the southern zone. It might be better to get a variety for the middle zone, if you have any shorter season than Hermiston. The different Iowa seed houses handle hybrid seed corn. I got mine from the state. but they are only sup posed to furnish it to experimenters in their own state. I have no seed of any kind for sale. Tests made by different persons scattered throughout the United State show that the feeding of fine ly ground calcium carbonate at the rate of one pound for 10 grown ani mals per day will take the place of legume hay when that Is not obtain- able. This may be of special im portance to many this winter on ac count of the killing out of much alfalfa. Cane and similar feed when fed exclusively for long periods of time will cause trouble because they lack some elements that the legumes contain. Calcium carbonate should be very finely ground for this spe- cial purpose." By Fred M. White. Drama Editor, The Oregonian. WHITE LEGHORN Cockerells, $6.00 per hundred. J. | H. Reid.
