FARMERS VISIT MORO
EXPERIMENT STATION
(By A. R. Chase, Wasco County Ag
ricultural Agent.)
Twenty-five automobiles with far
mers of this county and their families
numbering nearly a hundred, made the
trip to the Moro Experiment Station
on Wasco county day last Saturday.
The station people went over and ex
plained the work of the station, con
sisting of thousands of experiments,
very thoroughly with the visitors and
. there was a general expression of
regret among the party that they could
not spend a week or more rather than
a few hours at the station.
The experimental work carried on
at the station deals with practically
all phases of dry-farming and in no
other way would it be possible to get
in the same length of time the infor
mation which those who make the trip
receive as to the latest and best dis
coveries in practical farming in this
section of the country.
One big series of experiments relates
to cultivation and tillage practices.
Different treatments and combinations
of treatments as to plowing, harrow
ing, cultivation, etc., are given to a
larger number of plots of grain over a
series of years to find out the most
efficient and economical method of dry
Stephens stated that he considered
this possibly the most important phase
of the work just at present. Another
large and important division of the
work is the variety trials in which
many varieties of all grains and other
crops including field peas, vetches,
clovers, alfalfa, potatoes, and even
shade trees for the farmstead are con
stantly being tried out.
A new and relatively unknown vari
ety of grain, possibly imported from
a foreign country, is first tried out in
the nursery under the supervision of
F. J. Schneiderhan, scientific assistant.
It is here also that varieties are de
veloped and even created by crossing
and selection. At present over 1700
varieties of wheat alone are being
grown and worked with, one of the
largest collections in the world. A
variety which proves promising in the
nursery must, of course, be further
tried out in the regular variety trials
on a larger scale before it is presented
to the public.
These are but a very few examples
of the extensive work of this station
seen on the trip last Saturday. Those
who are interested should secure a
copy of an excellent new bulletin
entitled "Dry Farming Investigations
at the Sherman County Branch Exper
iment Station," which may be obtained
free from the experiment station or
the county agent.
Pollenizer Experiments While no
results have been obtained from last
year's grafts, grafts and budding of
two and three years ago are this year
furnishing striking examples of their
effect on the setting of fruit. There
are also some convincing demonstra
tions from the use of bouquets of
seedling, black, or other cherry blooms
used as pollenizers. A trip to inspect
the cherry orchards and these experi
ments is planned for some day this
week for those interested.
Cherry Pickers Cherry picking will
begin the latter part of this week.
There are more cherries than usual
this year in many orchards and there
will be a big demand for pickers.
Every man, woman, and child who can
pick cherries and does not already
nave a place to work should send or
leave their names with county agricul
tural agent A. R. Chase, at the court
house.
RED CROSS DRIVE
MEETS WITH SUCCESS
From the Mosier Bulletin
The following figures show how the
total of $1,176.90 has been raised in
Mosier, through subscriptions and cash
donations, for the Red Cross :
Total individual subscriptions except
M. A. Mayer, $700.
Collected in Children's contest:
Ferdinand Strauss, $39.03; Arta
Cole, &18.50; Frances Weller, $9.25;
L. and A.Joy, $5.60; Roger Chown,
$2.15. Total, $94.53.
Other cash collections :
J. K. McGregor, $21 ; Lenora Hunter,
$14.75. Total, $35.75.
M. A. Mayer, (25 per cent of total),
$207.57.
Receipts at Lawn Carnival, $139.05.
Grand Total, $1,176.90
Included in the $700 individual sub
scriptions is the amount subscribed the
evening of June 2.ird at Mayerdale,
which amounted to $220.
With a total of $09,006.90 subscribed
by Sherman and Wasco counties when
the allotment was only $15,000. the
citizens have responded nobly in the
Dig Keo; Lross drive, ana Mosier may
well be proud of the amount raised,
which is greatly in excess of all ex
pectations. To Mark A. Mayer considerable
credit is due for the success of the
local Red Cross drive by his generous
donation of cash, the use of his auto
mobile in soliciting funds, and the use
of his house and grounds for a carni
val. With a big red cross containing 60
globes as a centerpiece on the flag
pole about 25 feet high, red white and
blue lights were strung across the
Mayerdale lawn. Booths, with carni
val style, containing ice cream, can-'
dies, cottee, wieners, toys, lemonade
and so forth kept the crowd moving.
Jitney dances were held on the porch
and singing heard in the house.
F. A. Shogren took flash light pic
ture of the crowd of over 300 people
present and is doing the work at actual
cost to him. Pictures may be procured
at the Mosier Valley Bank. The flash
light pictures are meritorious and look
like they were taken by sunlight.
A stirring talk was made to local
citizens by Edward C Peasecampaign
manager of the Wasco County Red
Cross financial campaign, who with
Geo. C. Blakeley, Mr. and Mrs. F. L.
Houghton, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Wil
liams and their daughters and Judd S.
Fish, had motored over from The
Dalles. They were accompanied by
Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Wilson, of Port
land, who were first to answer the
appeal made by Mr. Pease by sub
scribing $100.
The generosity of the Pacific Power
& Light company in donating the use
of wire, lights and services of their
men to put the same in position and
then take them away is greatly appre
ciated. Local citizens also helped ' the good
cause by converting their automobiles
into jitneys, and turning the profits
into the Red Cross fund.
Altogether everyone assisted and all
share in the glory in this great human
itarian cause.
