EIGHT HERALD AMD NEWS Thunder. March I. IMS HEREFORD MEN PLAN ANNUAL SHOW IN K. F. At the annual meeting of the jal-Oregon Hereford association in Medtord last wrekend. John S Day of the Blue Moon Ranch, Medford, was elected president and Lawrence Horton of the Horton Hereford ranch, Klam ath Falls, vice presmem 01 me Assnrtntian. Plans were made to again conduct the annual lau snow and sale at Klamath Falls on October 28 and 29 this year. Breeders from the Pacific coast have annually orougiu in ana consigned their registered Here fords to this sale. It has proven to be one of the most success ful auctions on the Pacific coast. These registered livestock auctions are held in several strategic localities in the west ern states where raisers of com mercial and registered cattle may congregate to buy their herd bulls and other cattle necessary to successfully con tinue their production of beef. These auctions are recognized as a saver of transportation as it affords a wide opportunity for the selection of breeding stock at one point. The same high standard in the quality of cattle will be maintained which directly has increased the quality of the cat tle in the commercial herds in this area. Since its inception in 1938, the association has sold close to $300,000 of registered cattle. The organization has suc eeufully strived to increase the quality of cattle throughout the country. The credit for this ac complishment has been greatly due to Fred Bayliss, superin tendent of Mountcrest ranch, and Bob Fowler. Jackson county agent. These men have served as president and secretary treasurer of the association since its inception. Mitchell Tillotson, manager of the First National Bank at Klamath Falls, was again elect ed sales manager for the fall sale. The sales committee for the forthcoming year will be Claus Charley and John Day of the Medford area, and Lawrence Horton, Bill Serruys and Elmer BeJslger of Klamath Falls. Di rectors are Ed Pierce of Fierce Hereford ranch of Medford, Joe Jacobs. Cecil Haley, Bill Ser ruys and Bert Hoy, Hoy Here ford ranch of Weed, Calif. Weekly Market Trend iKditor'i Not: The foltowln market Information U fuppltvd from materia) obtained over the government leased wire In the office of the extension economist at Oregon Slate college. The material, in the form of a weekly sum mary of trends In the livestock market, is not intended to replace day by day market reports.) TESTS SLATED FOR NEW WEED KILLER The new hormone weed kill er, now on the market under a trade name, has shown consid erable promise in tests made nationally, but it . has not vet been tried by the experiment station here in Oregon, says Vir fill H. freed, research assistant fn "weed control at Oregon State college. Tests have been ar ranged, however, so that In- formation regarding this mate rial for control of Canada this tle, and morning glory should be available by. late June or early July, he says. "Our information at the pres ent time indicates that the ma terial will cost in the neighbor hood of $12 a gallon, which will be diluted with 60 gallons of water," Freed said. "At a nor mal rate of application for a heavy stand of weeds, the cost of material would be in the neighborhood of $50 per acre. "In view of this cost and the fact that no Oregon results are yet on record, we suggest that anyone wishing to try the mate rial do so on a small scale until more specific recommendations may be made." These costs may be substantially reduced when more material and more knowl edge of its use are available, Treed adds. i LIVESTOCK MARKETS Total receipts at livestock at North Portland on Monday, March 9, were liberal but the salable supply wai light, each division reporting 30u need fewer tha n a week pre v I o u s. The sala bl e count of cattle was l(vV) head, ahtep and lambs 350, and hogs 600 head. Trading was active in all divisions Willi prices steady except for a 25-cent advance on fat lambs. One load of steers made S16.50 but the bulk went at 41A.30 to (16. Good to choice fed wooled lambs were 15.73, a gain of 35 cents from last week's close but still 2.1 ceita under tne SI 6 top early last week. Hogs were full) steady at tha celling of 13.73. The San Francisco market was steady to firm. Good 900 pound steers sold at $15.30, lambs up to $17, and slaughter hogs at $15.73. Midwest markets were rather slow. Prices of hogs were firm at the relltnc but rattle wer barel.v steady and lambs unsettled to somewhat lower. LIVESTOCK NUMBERS DOWN Th trend In livestock numbers Dwenn In 1044 wni downward.

January 1, is estimated at i.iw.uuu wu, 1 per cent fewer than for January 1, Marketings of cattle and caives during iui u-r larffA and much above the previous year; however, a good 1M4 calf crop percentage with more cows in herds than a year earlier made it pos sible to nearly maintain inventory num bers in spite or neavy marnrunii. Milk cow numbers this January were maintained at about the same level as a year ago. while beef cow numbers were increased 7 per cent to 3.12.000 head. Heifers saved for milk cows were reduced 8 per cent, while beef heifers on hand were decreased 11 per cent. The number of calves on hand is S per cent below a year earlier. SHEEP TREND CONTINUES Oregon s sneep ana imu has been decreasing at an unusually rnr th iflii four vesrs. Further reducUona this year brought stock sheep numbers in the state to 1.037.000 head. 13 per cent below a year ago, 27 per cent below January 1, 1M3. and to the lowest level of record. Re ductions in sheep numbers during IN are shown for all sections of the state except southwestern Oregon.

Increased Collection Of Fats Reported Increased collections of waste fat from rural areas in Oregon are already reported since the recent announcement ot a critical situation in fat supplies, but con tinued effort is needed if com bined government and civilian needs are met. points out C. A. Henderson, county agent. The county extension office is co operating with county ana local salvage committees to encourage increased collections on farms and in small towns. Stores and meat markets serve as collection agencies in the county. Grower-Labor Sign-Up Set ForTulelake Producers A grower-labor sign-up will be started next Monday morning nt Tulclake by the Tulelake Grow ers, according to cucsier main, president.

M. Dickinson, poultry veterinarian nt Oregon State collcKc. These terms are not designa tions indicating poults from disease-free flocks, he points out. The American Veterinary Medi cal association recently has is sued an explanation of the four grades of poults with reference to pullorum disease. The top quality is designated "pullorum clean," meaning that the flock is free from the disease and has been' reared on promises free from infection. The term "pullorum passed" is the second quality, meaning that the flock has rjasscd one negative test within the season. The designa tions pullorum controlled and "pullorum tested" arc the poor est grades, indicating flocks with from two to six per cent infec tion. Oregon turkey breeders have high standards of pullorum disease-control enforced through the Oregon Turkey Iirorove- ment association, Dr. Dickinson adds, so that most of them can readily qualify for the two high est quality designations. A few more years of diligent effort may clean up the small remaining percentage of infection, he believes. Argentine alfalfa seed is not suitable for use anywhere in the central or northern states, ac cording to experimental data from all parts of the country reviewed by E. R. Jackman, ex tension specialist in farm crops at Oregon State college. While few if any established seed houses in Oregon are car rying the Argentine seed, some supplies are known to have been offered in this state, says Jackman. Because of the scar city and high price of northern grown alfalfa seed, some farm ers may be tempted to try some of the South American kind, he says. Grower tests witlv Argentine alfalfa in past years made in eastern, western, and southerti Oregon have indicated clearly that this variety is not suitable for any part of this state, Jack man warns. for the summer's operations In connection with prisoner tf war labor. Main said growers will have no trouble figuring the number of men needed for spring and summer weeding, etc., but there may be some who do not yet have definite pluns on potato acreage. "If wo have applied for too many we can always reduce the number," said the Tulelake man. "But past experience shows we are lucky to get enough help from this source." Individual grower contracts will be signed ut the Tulelake Growers office, Golden hotel building, Tulelako. The office will be open from 0 a. m. to 8 p. m. starting Monday morning, March 12, and including Friday, March 16.
