Olympic "M the Water" VltlTOSS WIICOMI At UMrlA IMKINO CO- OLTMrlA. WAIN, U t A. Mr. O. S. Aamodt, head agron omist, division of forage crops and diseases, U. S. department of agriculture, Washington, O. C in company with H. A. Schoth, divisional representa tive in the Pacific northwest, were in Medford today on a trip through southern Oregon. 'It is generally agreed, Mr, Aamodt said, "that there la a great need for crop adjustment in the United States, not only for the purpose of avoiding pro-1 duction of surplus crops, but, also, for soil Improvement and conservation. The necessary crop adjustments can best be made with grasses and legumes. "It is essential that the pro duction be based on efficient cultural practices. Basic to effi cient cultural practices In all crops ii adapted varieties. This factor has been emphasized in the action programs throughout the country," he continued. "In the Medford region and in other sections of the Pacific northwest, the State College of Agriculture, and the federal de partment of agriculture, work ing in cooperation with leading farmers, have demonstrated the excellent adaptation of Lotus to the soil and climatic conditions prevalent, "Lotus Corniculatus is a leg ume exceptionally well adapted to the wide variety of soil ana climatic conditions, and manage ment treatments, when com pared with other legumes com monly grown in the region. I think that Dr. George Clements of Los Angeles, has adequately described the value of this plant to agriculture as follows: " 'My own opinion is that It seems to be Just what the stock men have always hoped for; a forage plant of weed persistence and tenacity, hardy, resistant to drouth, yet tolerant to wet soil; a legume of quality feed value and great tonnage, a plant sought after by all stock.' " 'This development should go a long way toward obtaining the objectives set for the crop adjustment and soil improve ment programs, and at the same time, provide cheap, nutritious feed for the livestock Industry'." Also In the company, of (Ur.J Aamodt were Roger worse, dairy extension specialist, Ore gon State college, R. G. Fowler, county agent, and his brother, Tom Fowler of Amery, Wis. The group made inspections of the Hoover-Poston grass nur series near Medford and Eagle Point. The harvest will start in about 30 days on these nurseries of SOO acres of grass. Lotus was threshed there last year for the first time, and has taken Its place as one of the leading leg umes of the United States.
