Newspaper Page TextPAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1942. Jackson County Farm Notes Compiled by County Office O.S.C. Extension Service Maintain Soil For Long War Mora conservation farming on more farms than ever before Is needed If agriculture meets pro duction goals this year and (or the duration of the war. Con servation practices are needed that will get greater and wiser production not only this year, but more production per acre and per farm next year and for the duration. Two things are necessary to carry out agricul ture's war production task: 1. Use every method of ad justment to get the right amount of each product, without waste. 2. Use every method of con servation to Increase yields this year and build up the soil for bigger output next year. We were In the last war only 10 months, and yet agriculture was barely able to get by dis regarding the future by reck lessly plowing up additional acres, b;- shooting up too much of our ammunition in the first wild volley. This time we can not possibly get the needed pro duction simply through a "plough-up spree," AAA county and community committeemen were advised this week in a let ter from Fred S. Wallace, na tional chief of AAA. Oregon farmers and ranchers, cashing In on soil fertility built up through conservation work in recent years, have a running start on this year's production goals, Robert B. Taylor, chair man of the Oregon AAA com mittee, points out. Citing the Increased interest In pasture and range Improvement practices, and the big demand for lime and phosphate through AAA pro gram, Taylor believes that Ore gon farmers are laying a foun dation for heavier production for as long as the war lasts. By R. G. Fowler, County Agent Beetles Bother Victory Oardens Asparagus beetles are now feeding and laying eggs on young asparagus shoots. These eggs hatch in about a week after being laid. The young larvae from these eggs continue to feed on the tender shoots. The most practical control measure at this time is to keep the asparagus bed cut clean. All sprouts that are too small for use should be removed and burned to destroy the eggs. Whether or not the patch Is Infested can be determined by examining the tips of the shoots for a black beetle with red and yellow markings. The beetles are about '4 inch long. Later control can be obtained by spraying or dusting the tops with calcium arsenate. This should not be done until after cutting has been stopped. For a continuous supply of sweet corn all summer, a small block should be planted every 10 days or two weeks from now until June 10. This will supply corn from July IS until frost. Sweet corn is very tender to frost and April 20 is generally considered the start of the safe period for planting. Even then late frosts may damage the plants, but the earliness of the crop is well worth the risk involved. In the home garden, the corn should be planted in blocks rather than in long single rows. This gives a better chance (or pollenation and resulting well filled ears. Five rows, IS feet long should be planted now and an additional 15 feet should be added every 10 days or two weeks. Corn should be planted three feet apart between the rows and 12 to 19 inches in the row. Golden Early Market Is an excellent variety. Golden Ban tam is still tops for quality and should furnish the mid-season crop. Golden Cross Bantam Is a hybrid corn that is somewhat resistant to worm attack so Is particularly desirable for late planting. Suckerlng of the early crop Is desirable. It will not increase the yield but it has a tendency to cause the corn to ripen a little earlier. By C. B. Cordy, Assistant County Agent. Color Important In Choosing Dress Color takes on added import ance this year as we think about the selection of spring and sum mer clothing. Gone are the days when you could buy a gay red dress to lift your spirits without considering whether or not it would fit in with your present accessories. On the other hand, If ever we needed color It is now and we see this need fulfilled by the gay colorful prints and plaids on the street and in the shops. Color Is still with us, but of necessity it must be planned color. Each piece of material must be of a hue that will blend with our basic clothing. In order to accomplish this you might be interested in the fol lowing rules In color selection. Remember: 1. To m o d 1 f y unbecoming colors with a collar or yoke, colored embroidery, scarf, tie, beads, buttons or other trim ming of a harmonizing color thit is becoming to the wearer. 2. The repetition of a color Intensifies it, so choose colors to emphasize good points In such a way that the unattractive feat ures will not be noticed. If the hair is lovely, repeat its color. If the lips are unusually full, do not repeat red near the face. S. That contrast accents a color. If - the complexion is rather red or florid, do not choose pale, delicate colors. A bright red dress worn by a per son with black hair will make her hair appear all the darker. 4. The complement of a col or also intensifies it A sallow skin will appear very yellow if violet is worn, lust u pink cheeks will appear more rosy If green is worn. 5. To try a color by holding It under the chin before a well lighted mirror, the light being the same, daylight or artificial, in which the individual plana to wear the color. 6. To choose color which wilf accent the best features of the individual. 7. That color is a personal problem. Individuals cannot be classified into groups as to suit able colors. One may have the skin and hair of a blonde but the eyes of a brunette. Many extension units are now offering a meeting on "Line, De sign and Color in Dress." Plan to attend the one in your locali ty, or if that is Impossible, stop in at the office of the home de monstration agent in the court house and ask for the extension bulletin "Color, Clot bet and You." Recreation) Meeting Scheduled Monday Medford Recreation club will meet in the courthouse audi torium Monday, April 20 at 8 o'clock. At this meeting the group will consider songs and games that are effective In maintaining morale in large gatherings throughout an emergency. You are all familiar with the unrest that prevails when some thing interrupts the regular schedule of a theater program. Songs are one of the best ways to maintain order. Plan to at tend this meeting on April 20 in the courthouse auditorium to receive help In meeting such emergencies. By Marian J. Farrell, .Home Demonstration Agent. The Grange Eagle Point Grange What with spring work and several members busy at the cantonment attendance at the last Eagle Point grange meeting was very small. Lecture hour preceded regular session. Messrs. Ed Mann and Claud Haggard gave an illus trated lecture on bombs and first aid. An election of state officers was held. A letter from Sergt. Clarence Tlngleaf was read de scribing Oahu, T. H., where he i stationed. Two proposals for membership were read. Next meeting will be April Zl. Visitors always welcome. CANCEL PIONEER MEET Portland, April 18.
