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.

4-H CLUB NEWS _
Considerable interest is manifest
in crops projects this year with
eight or ten boys and girls enroll
ing in the forage crop clubs. 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.

PEN-FED BIRDS
AND BROILERS
Very large turkeys, 18 pounds
and upwards, sold at a slight dis
count the past season, though the
demand was greater than for the
past five or six years. 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.

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

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.
