The amount of payments to be made farmers will be left to the de termination of county committees. It will be based upon how much is sowed over and above what has been planted. Crops listed as soil depleting ones in Oregon were potatoes, melons, strawberries, flax, small grains and hay.

Dean, superintendent of the Umatilla Field Station here, tells something about good pasture, of its use, and profits derived from it. “Pasturing is the oldest type of agriculture now in existence yet it has received far from adequate con sideration from the standpoint of making it the most profitable. “Pastures under conditions on the project here should furnish nearly half of all livestock feed, yet have generally received only minor con sideration in planned agriculture. A well cared for pasture on good land will carry two cows per acre, and be as profitable as any land on the farm. The day has gone when waste land is good pasture land. “Mixed grass and legume pastures make more feed on the heavier soil types but on our lighter soils sweet clover, because of its deep root sys tem which enables it to gather a uniform moisture supply, will pro vide more feed. It should be remem bered that grasses and the smaller clovers are shallow rooted and must have heavier soils which retain high percentages of moisture. Mixed grass pastures are limited to an estimated ten percent of the soils rere. "As an emergency measure when other pasture is short, thin stands of alfalfa carrying enough grass to minimize the danger of bloat, may be used the last year before plow ing up. These thin stands are not profitable as pasture over a period of years. "In order to secure a good seed bed for grasses and legumes it is extremely important that the seed bed be firmly packed. Loose, poorly prepared seed beds cause more fail ures to secure satisfactory stands than any other factor, except wea ther conditions. "One of the advantages of divid ing the pasture into two or more lots is the fact that plants in pas tures too closely grazed will not de velop extensive root systems because of the fact that leaf surface is nec essary for a plant to develops prop erly. Pastures grazed continuously and closely, never have an oppor tunity to make normal growth or produce the amount of feed they are capable of, if the stock is rotated and the alternate pastures given an opportunity to recover while the stock is in the other pasture. "One of the points to be consid ered in selecting the part of the tarm for pasture, is to put it on the best land on the farm. The pasture should be established as near as practical to the barns and corrals, so that stock can be conveniently handled. The location should be such that frequent irrigations can be given with a minimum of loss. Land which has previously been In cultivated crops is desirable due to the fact that there will be a mini mum of weeds present to retard the growth of the pasture plants. It is necessary to again repeat that the best land on the farm Is none too good for pasture. MADRAS—A forage grass nursery has recently been established on the Hay Creek ranch in Jefferson coun ty by Assistant County Agent K. W. Sawyer, to enable stockmen to ob serve the performance of the various grasses under conditions in this district. Grasses included were awnless blue bunch grass, tall mea dow oat grass, little blue grass, fair- way grass, meadow fescue, bulbous blue grass, Idaho fescue, agropyron sibricum, smooth brome, Indian rice, big blue grass, crested wheat grass, slender wheat grass, poa secunda, blue bunch wheat grass and orchard j grass. «*«*«**«« Mor-Tone Sound Service PHONE 121 coodcox ‘ If i I ws 1 UMATILLA NEWS t By ERMA BYRNES.
