BER CROP HARVEST 1 HARVESTof MATURE TREES November I960 2 BURNING of WASTE MATERIAL Hovsnfcr 1961 RE-FOREST SEEDING DKe' ' 1, uimm ufTf H: the YOUHG TREES CROW better inform the public about Seasons Switched For OSC Turkeys, Benefits Reaped Corvallis - It's "June in January" for a mixed-up flock of turkeys at Oregon State College. But this state of con fusion Is paving the way for food shoppers to find fresh turkey on the market any day of the year. For the past three years, OSC agricultural experiment station scientists have been upsetting the normal breeding cycle for turkeys-artificially juggling the amount of day light so that summer becomes winter. Normally, turkeys do most of their egg-laying from Dec. 21 to June 21 when length of daylight is increasing. Their spring-hatched poults mature to market size in about six months-just right for the Thanksgiving to Christmas holiday season. OSC poultry scientists J. A. Harper and J. E. Parker were able to upset this schedule by artificially lengthening the day for breeder hens in the fall. Their poults, hatched from October to December, thus reached maturity in the summer. Big Problem Big problem was that this bit of deception was produc ing birds that were maturing in the spring when day length was increasing, a condition that ran counter to a turkey's normal fall-maturing cycle. As a result, these young mature birds didn't produce summer eggs. TTie researchers solved this problem by artificially short ening the days in June, re stricting the birds to only nine hours of daylight for a four-week stretch. This "arti ficial winter," followed by longer days when they went back on 17 hours of daylight, did the trick and egg produc tion went up. As a result, hntcheries may now be able to obtain a year round supply of eggs to hatch poults that will mature to market size any month of the year. A year-round supply of fresh turkey would not only be good news to food shop pers but would help farmers and poultry processing plants cut down overhead by making use of facilities over a longer period of time, Harper ex plained. The research project is being continued with re newal of a $1,000 grant from the National Turkey Federa tion.

Southern Oregon Conserva Boating Clubs Oppose Plan for Administrator Salem (UPf) The Oregon Federation of Boating Clubs Wednesday opposed Gov. Mark Hatfield's plan to reor ganize the State Marine Board, replacing it with a small boats and harbors division headed by an administrator. Howard Walker of Coos Bay, federation president, said a five-man board was better than "one-man rule" of an ad ministrator. Walker said the plan would reduce effectiveness of the i present operation. He ap peared before the Senate State and Federal Affairs Committee. Sheriff Speaks Out Others to oppose the plan were the Columbia River Fish ermen's Protective Associa tion, Oregon Marine Trades Association and Marion Coun ty Sheriff Denver Young. Young said it seems to him the bill might, mean that en forcement of some boating regulations might be more dif ficult. He also expressed con cern about the possibility of loss of funds to counties. He said a number of other sheriffs agree with him, in cluding those of Linn, Clacka mas and Jackson counties. The division would come under a new natural resourc es department.
