LOCAL 4-H CLUB LEADER'S CONFERENCE HOMEMAKERS DAY SCHEDULED POTATO BEETLE CHECKED BY SPRAY It Is the time of the year to be thinking about control of the potato beetle. These Insects pass the win ter in the soil as adult beetles and appear in the fields about the time the early potatoes are sprouting. They feed on the tender tips of the young plants, and after a few days begin to deposit their eggs in com pact masses on the under surface of the leaves. When they hatch they can be detected by their deep red dish color. It is at this stage that they attack the foliage of the pota to plant. Standard sprays are the treat ment for potato beetle. Usually two applications are necessary for their control. The first spray is applied as soon as the beetles appear on the young plants and the second should follow about two weeks later. Lead arsenate is a very good spray to use. The mix consists of two pounds of powder arsenate of lead to fifty gal lons of water. When smaller quanti ties are advisable use 2-3 ounce or ten level teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. In preparing the solution the arsenate of lead should first be made up into a thin paste by the addition of a small quantity of water and then diluted to the re quired strength.

Clubs of this type work in very nicely with all livestock clubs in that it gives the boy or girl some assurance that they will have ample feed to carry livestock through. It also gives some idea as to the cost of raising differ ent crops and marketing the same through livestock. Special weed clubs will be worked in conjunc tion With the crops projects. Those boys and girls who do not have suf ficient acreage to carry one of the crops projects this year can enroll in the weed club and be prepared this fall or next spring to sow a small grain or pasture crop for a project the coming year. The first meeting of all 4-H live stock clubs will be held Saturday, May 1st, beginning at 9:00 a. m., at the assistant county agent's office. The purpose of this meeting is to familiarize boys and girls with the fundamentals of judging all classes of livestock. A trip will be made to the Umatilla Experiment Station where a number of Jersey cows will be judged. A trip is also planned to the Jake Rueber ranch at Stanfield where several classes of ewes will be judged. If there are breeders in the area where suitable classes of beef animals and hogs can be ob tained. one class of each of these will also be judged. Jay T. Pierson, assistant county agent, will go over the important points to consider in judging all livestock with each of the club members. All livestock 4-H club members are urged to attend this meeting be cause it marks the beginning of our competition among the different in dividuals in the various clubs for judging work this year. Each boy and girl will be required to turn in placing! on the different classes of livestock at each judging practice meeting. The high scoring club team will be chosen to compete at the state fair and the local fair later in the season. Before clubs may complete the year’s work 100 percent. It is nec essary that a judging team or a demonstration team be developed during the year. A11 day meetings such as this will enable each of the clubs to select a team for judging work. Demonstration teams will be selected in the near future through similar competition. MAY 3,4, 5; 1937 PROGRAM Monday, May 3 11:00 A. M. General Assembly, Union Hotel, H. C. Seymour. 12:00 M.

Turkeys above 16 pounds are too large for most city family stoves and roasting pans, and families are not large enough to consume the heavy birds readily. For the hotel and restaurant trade they are, of course, very acceptable, but it is doubtful If the demand for very large turkeys will ever reach big volume, even when buying pow er is high. It would seem that grow ers should try to grow as many birds as possible in the 10 to 16 pound classer . One exception to the rule about heavy toms was noted during Octo ber. Supplies of heavy birds ran low and there was an active demand for those weighing above 16 pounds. As Thanksgiving approached, the heavyweights shifted from a prem ium to a discount basis. Pen-fed turkeys are a recent de velopment. A large part of the pen- feds were matured several weeks ahead of the holiday trade and found a receptive market, tor prices were better early in the season. Un der certain conditions pen feeding may pay, but the production cost is greater. Broiler turkeys are another inno vation. During the past three or four seasons a demand for broiler turkeys has been developing grad ually. The demand seems fairly well spread out through the year, and in creasing quantities can undoubted ly be sold from season to season. But they are a specialty, and produ cers must plan to meet the exacting requirements. 1:30 P.M. General. L. J. Allen 1:45 P.M. Eastern Oregon Experi ment Station, Its History and Objectives, D. E.

Dried milk and meat scraps, two common materials used to fur nish protein in poultry rations, cost more than the soy bean meal; the cost of the ration is important. Fattening Ducklings The Pekin is the most desirable breed when ducklings are wanted to mature early as green ducks. They are good feeders and rapid growers, and respond to special methods of feeding, says the Mont real Herald. Frequent feeding promotes rapid growth. Young ducklings should be fed six times daily from the start until they are about 18 to 20 days old, and five times daily during the growing and fattening period.
