Bad Outlook For Concentrates The outlook for concentrate feeds for livestock is not bright While farmers have been prom' ised the concentrates they need for feed, they do not matriallze. An additional amount of soy bean meal is being received in the state, but not enough to give an adequate supply. It looks as though farmers would have to think about grow in 2 their own concentrates in the form of more grass and lesume silage, better pastures, better quality hay and possibly through the production of Aus trian peas and other dry ecume peas to be made into protein meal. Austrian Winter peas can be ground to make a high pro tein meal which will run from 21 to 25 percent protein. This meal is not as palatable as cot' ton seed or soy bean meal but can be used as a substitute. By R. O. Fowler, . . County Agent. Fertiliser Supplies Available This. Year J - ' An adequate, supply of nitro gen fertilizer is reported avail able this year. In order to In sure-delivery, orders should be placed how so dealers can lay in stocks. , It will be necessary this year to change, at least in part,- from ammonium sulfate to ammoni- um nitrate. The' ammonium nitrate is a- more concentrated fertilizer so while it costs more per 100 pounds; less is used so its cost per acre is about , the same as the ammonium sulfate. r Orchardists should apply these fertilizers as soon as they can for maximum benefit this com ing season. As a general recom mendation, use five pounds of ammonium sulfate or three pounds of ammonium nitrate per bearing tree. On small trees use one or two pounds. Where- both kinds of fertilizer are pur chased, use, one kind on part of the orchard and the other kind on the rest. Spray Materials -Adequate Is Word - ' ' Recent word indicates that there will be an adequate sup ply of arsenics Is, sulfur, nico tine, copper, ' spray oils and spreaders for this year. The supply of rotenone will be larg er, but its use is still restricted to the control of specified in sects. None of the pear pests are included in this list. Prac tically the entire supply of Py- rethrum will be used by the army for control of flies, mos quitoes and similar pests. . . By C. B. Cordy.
