The U.

Ho. search has shown that the finer the sulphur Is ground, tho more effcetivo 11 Is against tho fungi. The Colorado plant scientists also found that mid-day dunlins was less effective because beat waves rlslim from tho sun drenched leaves tend to prevent tho microscopic particles from settling on the plants. Instead, tho dust would drop through to the ground, nence, me morning and evenlni flviim schedules. Dusting planes fly at low levols, "hedge hopping" nbout 10 feet above the vines. In the mid day hours the pilots ride trucks to scout tho fields scheduled for treatment and to observe flying hazards such as telephone and cower ooles and lines, and even toll fence posts. The plnnes carry a load of 030 pounds of the fine sulphur dust. The dust flows from a nozzle and the air stream from the propeller scat ters ii in a siowiy seining cioua. Plenty of qunllty turkeys are predicted for Klamath markets this fall. Birds seem to do oi exceptionally flna quality and greater weight this yoar, Charles A. Henderson, county agent stated. This Is probably due to the quantity ana quality or natural food, tho rosult of late rains In the area, Henderson said. The 1945 turkey crop Is In good snano with loss disease op parent In the flocks. Less calls for assistance have come In to the offlco on turkey allmonts this year. Although there seem to be less turkeys In the basin this year than usual, there will be more on local markets due to cancella tion of military contracts. Klamath basin usually Dro- duces about 30,000 turkeys per year with a maximum or 40.000, This year's crop Is slightly less tnnn normal. Troy V. Cook POTATOES Office 204 Williams Bldg.

Pocket-Sized Birth Certificate Proposed PORTLAND. Oct. 18 (P). Dr. Harold M.

Others heed the ad vice of Burden experts who ad vise that healthy plant material from tho garden should bo re turned to the soil, either directly or after rotting lira compost pile, but find that dried cornstalks do not rot quickly and satisfac torily. An easy method, according to Victory garden headquarters at the U. . department of aarlcul ture, is to chop the stalks with a sharp hoe or spade, making two to four slanting cuts across each knodo or joint of the stalk, This rcduccsthcslze of the corn pice cs so they can bo spaded under or composted. It also destroys the protective cover furnished by tlic suriace oi the stalK. De cay is moro rapid, wholhcr the bits of stalk are in the compost pile or left on the garden to be spaded under either in fall or spring. Disposal of the stalks by chop ping and spading them under deeply has the additional advant age of destroying the European corn borers that might be in them. Borers are prevalent over much of the area where sweet- corn is a garden crop. The soon or cornstalks are cut and shred ded after the ear is harvested, the better. If shredded while still green and before the fibers ma ture and dry most of the plant food values of the stalk will be returned to the garden for use by succeeding crops.

' West Hitchcock Corp 423 S. Sixth St. F A R WEATHER PREFERRED BY Good woathcr for ducks, espe cially young ducks, is fair riot wet and rainy, as Is commonly supposed. Poultry specialists of tho U. 8, department of agricul ture say that domestic ducks like wator underneath for swimming, but not rain from above, A heavy cold rain on a duckling's back may cause a fatal chill regardless of the way water is said to run off that part of the bird. The reason Is that the back feathors arc the last to grow on a duckling, Nature provides a thick layer of down on the un derside early In life, but the back is not safely feathered for protection from damp and cold until aoout tne e i g n t n ween, when the duck is almost old enough to market "green." Though popular sayings about ducks are frequent in American speech, Americans are much less familiar with ducks than with chickens and turkeys. The year ly crop of ducks in the United States is only about 12 million, and about naif of these are raised on specialized duck farms, most of them on Long Island. In contrast, chickens are raised on about BO per cent of the farms over the country, and the total raised this year farm chickens and broilers included is cstl mated at I billion 83 million, The turkey crop this year is about 44 million birds. Commercial duck farms have proved most profitable when lo cated near cities having a large night club trade or a large European-born population. Duck dinners are highly popular with Dotn tneso groups. Douglas County DA Submits Resignation ROSEBURG, Ore., Oct. 18 (P) J.

The judge, however, could not send a person convicted In the county court to the penitentiary, as only circuit Judges may do. that. The law on this crime gives county courts the same Jurisdic tion as that of circuit courts. Neuner csiu that in such a trial in county court, the proce dure to be followed is the same as that In justice court.

This ani mal came from the Pine Manor farms at Goshen, Ind., where some of the finest producing and show Guernseys have been raised. , This heifer, named Pine Ma nor Ring's Graceful, is sired by Coronation King of Pine Manor, Twenty-four of his sons and daughters have sold for an aver age of $2307. His dam, Pine Manor Royal Astrid produced 12,043.4 pounds of milk and 656.4 pounds of butterfat with her first calf, when two end one- half years old.

PORTLAND, Oct. 18 UP) The week ending Tuesday was a fine one for gathering crops, the U. S. weather bureau reported today. Medford and Wasco thermom eters hit the 87 high, and Mad ras set the low at 27, followed by Baker at 29. Portland's .28 precipitation was high.

Gillen, Klamath county home demon stration agent. Time and motion studies that did so much to speed up work in war industries apply just as well to the work around a home, says Mrs. Gillen. This is proved both by individual experiences of women and by definite stud ies such as were recently con ducted at Michigan State college. One Pan Used The Michigan investigators found out that the average house wife used one pan in a single sink to wash spinach, using one hand to lift the greens from water to a colander, then back into fresh water. They found that this job could be done as well and in less than half the time by using two pans or a double sink, filling them alter nately with water, and using both hands to draw and drain off water and lift the greens. Other jobs where two hands save time are, washing wood work wash with right hand, dry immediately with left hand, keeping drying cloth handy in left pocket; dusting using two cloths, one in each hand, or wear a dust mitt on each hand.
