FARM Woodlot Facts By DICK OLSON Oregon Slaie Farm Forester During the next two months, the woods will not only be blomoing with wild flowers but also with school children. ApproxinxV'ipy 30,09 stu dents and 3,500 teachers throughout Oregon will par ticipate this year in school conservation tours. Some counties hold their tour in the spring and some in the fall, depending on the wishes of the local school administra tion. In southwest Oregon, Jackson county will hold its tour this spring and Joaephiree county, this fall. School conservation tours use "outdoor classrooms" for conservation. The Jackson county tour will bring ap proximately 1,600 eighth grade students to the John TO lack tree Vum, where per asons trined in natural rt- Bpources management discuss land demonstrate a variety of atopics.

A ,..- "hi Dorado, n winter-type pear which fits well into the late marketing season, is the subject of a new information circular just published by the Oregon State university agri cultural experiment station. Dr. Quentin B. Zielinski, issoclate professor Of horti-!ski culture, wrote the circular which describes the variety which was first found in Call- Licenses Needed For Milk Sales Sal env Farmers, who keep on 1 y e nou gh milk cows or goats for family use during most of the year, may find they have a milk surplus as greening pastures increase the production. The state department of ag riculture reminded this week that dairymen bottling thin a:rh and selling it as ra milk are operating "jug dair ies' and must be licensed to legally operate.

Copies of the circular are available from the county extension office. El Dorado is being plant ed in Ofttgub on a Mmitcd commercial basis, Dr. Zielin- observes. Harvested just after D'Anjou and usually with Cornice, the fruit is an attractive pale yellow color when ripe. The researcher notes that i El Dorado, n non-patented va riety, is likely to be grown more widely in the future in : preference to D'Anjou and Pack ham's Triumph because ! of its high quality, attractive ' appearance and late-keeping I characteristics. Most Promising El Dorado appears to be the ' most promising new winter pear variety among the many ; tested by the experiment sta tion over the past years.
