THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1940. FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION J! MESSAGE WHEAT GROWERS ASKED DATA ON P R O D U C T IO N Because of the importance of ac curate agricultural data in national preparedness plans, Oregon wheal growers will be asked to submit cer tain production information before the time of seeding their 1941 crop, it is announced by the state AAA of fice in Corvallis. Winter wheat growers who intend to participate in the national farm program in 1941 will be asked to sign by October 31 a form called “1941 Winter Wheat Plan.” By signing this form, each grower will indicate whether he intends to comply with his 1941 wheat acreage allotment, and will specify the acreage which he intends to seed. In addition, he will report his 1940 wheat production. Spring wheat growers will be asked to give similar data later. Data obtained from farmers through this sign-up will be useful to the federal government both in formulating national defense plans and in outlining international trade possibilities, said N. C. Donaldson, in charge of the state AAA office. TO EVERY MEMBER.

HERMISTON. OREGON. Proper Storing of Crop Is Important Item. By C. H. NISSLEY Seeds of many vegetable crops held over from one season to anoth er may be used this year if they have been properly stored, but they should be tested for both vitality and germination before planting time, if growers follow the advice of vege table gardening department at the New Jersey College of Agriculture. Germination tests of seed pur chased from seedsmen are now com pulsory in many states and must ap pear on the package in which pur chased. There is no way of deter mining when the seed was produced or how it was stored and handled by the dealer. Cucumber, lettuce, muskmelon and tomato seed usually retain their vitality for a period of five years. Beets, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, pumpkins, squash, and watermelon are good for four years; eggplants, three years; onions and peppers, two years; and parsley, one year. These figures are approximate, for the seed loses its vitality more rap idly in some sections than in others, and it has been observed that hu midity and temperature also have an influence on stored seed. High temperatures, 86 degrees Fahren heit, or above, with an excessive humidity cause rapid deterioration of most seeds. Seeds of different vegetables vary in their structure and consequently in their keeping qualities. Some seeds have a hard impervious covering while others have a thin, easily penetrated one. Mice, rats, weevils and other in sects attack stored seeds. One of the most common methods of storing seed is to cover a fair-sized wooden box with one-fourth inch galvanized hardware cloth. This wired cloth is tacked on the outside of the box to keep rodents from entering. Seed should be examined occa sionally for the presence of weevils and other seed insects and fumigat ed with carbon bisulphide or other recommended chemicals if there are signs of insects present. A dust con taining high percentages of either pyrethrum or rotenone may be used instead of the fumigation treatment although the gas is more effective.

Foods Raised on Farm COLUMBIA GRANGE Contain Necessary Iron HOLDS MEETING The role that many farm foods play in keeping everybody healthy is common talk but perhaps one of the clearest pictures of this re lationship is found in the story of iron. The amount of iron required in the body in relation to its impor tance to life might well be charac terized by the phrase “little, but oh my.” For iron is one of the behind- the-scene workers in the mainte nance of healthful blood which as ev eryone knows is so important to good health. Briefly, it helps in the building of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrying portion of the red blood cells. If the diet is insufficient in iron, there is likely to be inadequate hem oglobin formation and the condi tion known as nutritional anemia results. Usually persons who are anemic lack pep and energy. Where the farm foods step into the picture is in the fact that many green leafy vegetables furnish a large part of the daily iron needs. Spinach for one is high in iron and is easy to grow. Dandelions are considered another fine iron source. Other gar den greens furnishing iron are en dive, kale and broccoli. It is well to remember that al though liver and kidney are consid ered the richest sources of iron, if everyone demanded these foods all the time the price of liver would probably increase to the point that those persons suffering with perni cious anemia and needing to eat liv er would be unable to afford it. For this reason, it is well to look to the greens, egg yolk and many of the dried fruits as iron sources. Eggs are comparatively inexpensive right now.
