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.
