the Dutch and Spanish iris, but the
plants have the added advantage of
having roots instead of bulbs. They
grow into large clumps with sword-

SIGNERS SOUGHT
FOR RANGE PROGRAM
Umatilla county farmers were re
minded today by A. R. Coppock,
chairman of the Umatilla County
Agricultural Conservation commit
tee, that June 1 Is the final date for
ranchers to file requests for prior
approval of range-building practices
offered under the 1939 range con
servation program.
He said that approximately 80
ranchers in this county will take
part in the 1939 range program,
carrying out practices designed to
promote conservation and continue
good range management. Among
popular practices in this county are
deferred grazing, spring and reser
voir development, drilling of wells
and reseeding.
All range-building practices must
be approved by the county agricul
tural conservation committee. Re
quests for prior approval of practi
ces should be made to the county
agent or secretary of the county
conservation association.
Approximately 1400 Oregon ranch
ers, representing around 6,000,000
acres of range land, are taking part
in this year’s range program, ac
cording to word received by the
county agent.
