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.

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

What with spring work and
several members busy at the
cantonment attendance at the
last Eagle Point grange meeting
was very small.

trated lecture on bombs and first

scribing Oahu, T. H., where he
