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.

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.

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

midwest, using heavy applica
tions of 1,000 pounds to a ton
per acre. 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.

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.
