Extension Service Silo Making Tim Hert; Many To Profit by Mistakes Silo making time is here again. and many livestock owners will be able to profit by last year's mistakes. It is possiblr to pre serve almost all kin'.s or plants by ensiling them. It does not im prove the food value or increase the palatabilitv of undesirable, weedy type plants Experience has shown that there are a few factors essential to good silage. The crop to be en siled should be palatable and succulent in its present slate good thrifty grass that may be cut before it reaches maturity has the higher protein content. Any good pasture grass, ladino clover or alfalfa crop harvest ed in the bud or early bloom stagi will provide the makings for a superior winter feed. The silo itself should be put tn condition to receive the crop. This applies particularly to wood stave, laminated wjiid or trench silos. Wood type silos may be nuirie more nearly "airtight" by tnking up the slack on the bands or dv spraying the interior sur face with wnter a few days prior to tilling. Dirt wall trench silos may be "smoothed" off by scrap ing the walls, followed by lin ing willi waterproof paper. The silage crop is then harvested as for a hay crop except that it is cut into one-half Inch lengths by a field chopper or ensilage cut ter, when the moisture content has reached about 60 to 70 per cent. This is indicated by a half-wilted condition. The cut grass is then mixed with mo lasses or cracked grain as it is "packed" in the silo. Sixty to 80 pounds of molasses or ISO to 200 pounds of cracked grain per ton of green feed is sufficient to complete the preserving proc ess, providing the silo is "tight" and proper packing has been car ried on during the filling process. Packing may be accomplished better if the material is evently distributed or "leveled off" fre quently during the filling op eration. One or two men con stantly working Inside the up right silo, or a tractor driven over the entire surface of the trench silo at filling time, will Company Officials Address Oil Dealers Dealers nnd sales employees of tlu; Tide Water Associated Oil company for southern Oregon met for a sales dinner at the Jackson hotel here Friday. Dis trict Sales Manager M. C. Cole man presided at the meeting. Top company officials, includ ing W. A. Reamer, sales manager; Waller Brunn, his alstant. and Harold R. Deal, manager of ad vertising and sales promotion, also attended. A new product, Tydol com pounded motor oil, was an nounced at the meeting. It will be placed on sale next month. insure adequate packing, if the moisture content is in the 60 to 70 per cent range. Excessive moisture may produce a poor quality, while inadequate mois ture prevents the excluding of air and results in danger of over heating, development of mold and pood or damaged silage. Those who prefer corn for the silage crop will be interested in the best variety of hybrid corn. Ida Hybrid No. 544 was one of the best of 22 varieties at the southern Oregon branch experi ment station last year. This va riety produced 118.6 bushels per acre, and stalks averaged over 10 feet in height. W. B. Tucker. County Extension Agent. Tim To Start Mildew Control on Grapes, Rotas Mildew control on grapes and roses should be started now. The most effective control consists in preventing the early infections from becoming established. A sulfur dust or the use of wet table sulfur, one heaping table spoon to a gallon of water, will protect the plants from infec tion for about two weeks. At that time another spray should be applied. It is necessary that these re peat applications be made as long as new growth appears in the spring. About the first of July conditions are not as fa vorable for mildew, and by that time enough sulfur should be used so that further applica tions would not be necessary. Where mildew on grapes has been severe, another application in early September would be desirable. On roses the addition of a ta blespoon of Black Leaf 40 and a heaping tablespoon of 50 per cent DDT in two gallons of the sulfur spray would also give control of aphis and thrip. These insects are now starting to at tack and early control measures are desirable. C. B. Cordy, County Extension Agent, Horticulture. Som Phosphorus Fertilisers Said oi Dubious Valu Several types of phosphorus fertilizers are being offered for sale to Oregon farmers this year which may have dubious value. Unproved materials on the mnrket, according to Arthur S. King, O. S. C. soil conservation specialist, include ground rock phosphate and various fused ma terials. The latter are manufac tured by heating phosphate rock In a furnace with or . Shout ac company mnterials. While these these materials may carry up wards of 30 per cent or more total phosphorus, here is the catch: Only a small percentage is immediately available. A substantial tonnage of this rock phosphate is used annual ly with apparent succor- in the I WON'T SAV OUR WIRING IS OVERLOADED--BUT THATS THE TOAST I PUT IN FOR YOU YSTRDAV MORNING" Oon't tvtrload your electric circuits.

These applications take care of phosphorus needs for, several years, and apparent ly under soil conditions there the system is satisfactory. The system in Oregon, however, gives little indication that the same results are obtained. Annual applications of proved available materials have been substantially more profitable. Phosphorus fertilizers that have proved themselves under Oregon conditions include super phosphate which supplied 18 to 20 per cent available phosphorus and some available sulphur. In this same category, triple super phosphate ar treble phosphate carries 42 to 48 per cent avail able phosphorus. Complete fer tilizers carry a varying percent age depending upon the individ ual formula. There is always a chance, King states, that new materials may be better than those offered in the past. But he is advising farmers to use rock phosphate or other similar materials with cnu ion. Use them on a trial basis until they have proved them selves, he suggests. When properly used, any of the tried and proved materials will take care of phosphorus needs of any crop in any Oregon locality. Earle Jossy. County Extension Agent. GERMAN HOTELS READY Hotels in Germany are well equipped and ready to accommo date the 100.000 American trav elers expected to visit western Germany this year, according to A Nichols Worth of Comment On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Proao rutin WrMw Washington, May 22 (U.R) xne democrats are in as far as baseball is concerned. The demos pulled out all the stops the other night and blast ed the bedick ens out of their rep ubllcan ri vals in the an n u a 1 congres sional baseball game. As near as anybody could figure out the score was 8 to 4. This put the democrats Hixmin Nichols ahead in the modern series, three games to on. The hero of the game is no stranger in a hero role. He is Olin Teague 'D., Tex.) Olin, who is small as things grow in Texas, started two double plays and got nimseit a smacking single. The congressman wears a trick shoe. He lost part of a leg in the Battle of the Bulge, but that didn't keep him from being the busiest hustler on the field. It was a good show, all in the sweet name of charity a game sponsored by the Washington Star. The marine corps band was out there. A good time was had by all, and the republicans even re cruited a girl catcher from a Washington high school to warm up their pitchers between innings. Bui They Didn t Play Just for a laugh, the democrats dragged out two women con gressmen. Keva Beck Bosone oi Salt Lake City, and Edna Kelly of Brooklyn. They showed up in high heels and didn't play any baseball. , The democratic whip in the 1 house, James Percy Priest of Ten- j nessee. was the coacn lor tnat ' team when he wasn't pinch-hitting. He was a real whip, too. He had a long-tail with him and snapped it as his triumphant col leagues came lumbering across the base paths. Congressmen, like ball players and people, can sass back an um- ; pire, too. A couple of them did. Kep. mint iJisnop, me repuou- can manager, near came to blows with one of the blue-coats on a called strike decision. He thought better of it when his catcher, Johnny Saylor of Pennsylvania, who is bigger than the runt blew the whistle. The score card showed room for 12 innings. Gam Short Lived It was a waste of printing. The tired old men, who probably won't get much legislating done today, because of tired muscles, lasted only five frames which was about four and a half too many. The first half inning, In which the democrats counted three runs on two hits, lasted almost an hour. Tom Pickett of Texas was sent in to pinch-hit for some demo crat whose name escapes me. Tom brought along a "bat" about four times as broad and long as a canoe paddle. The announcer announced that the able members of the Na tional Press club challenged the winner or any combination of the great men from Capitol Hill to a game. There wasn't much of a cheer from the press box. m Special Communication. A Warren Lodge No. 10, A. F. Q & A. M . Jacksonville. Tues., aCUJI May 23 (DST) at 8 o'clock. WtW Work in F. C. decree.
