Farm Show Brings New Innovations The growing Interest of Klam ath basin farmers is being turned on to the American Broadcasting company's public service feature. "The American Farmer heard over local station KFLW every Saturday morning at 9:30. Each week the program out lines and explains some new type of farm innovation. A disease-resistant corn, which will double the output formerly known, a machine that will eliminate frost in orchards and a "Chicken of Tomorrow" are but a few of the agricultural miracles and prom-ises-of-thc-future to be described. Last October the broadcast took listeners to Guatemala for in formation on the new type of hardy -bred maize being de veloped in experiments in that country. In November the pro gram travelled to the agricultur al engineering department of Michigan State college to look over the frost control machine developed by them. Through its use, millions of dollars of dam age to spring crops will be avoid ed. The program, during 1946. pre sented 36 on-the-spot pickups from state and county fairs over the nation, national expositions, land grant colleges, and soil con servation demonstrations. Among the various organiza tions covered by the broadcasts were the reopening of the 4-H club convention in Chicago, the . Future Farmer of America Con gress in Kansas City and regional meetings of various dairy im provement associations, grange ' conventions, farm credit admin istration groups and livestock as sociations. Probably the greatest service that the program has given is its efforts toward promoting farm safety, for which it was awarded the National Safety Council award in 1946.

Li UWESHORE Oregon Shorthorn Breeders Sponsor RDnOA pottlnmnn Ihrnilfflintlt the west have been showing in terest in recent years in the crossbreeding of Shorthorn bulls on Hereford cows. Many who have followed this practice re port that they have heavier calves at weaning time and that the crossbreeds gain faster in the feedlot. In recognition of this Interest the Oregon Shorthorn Breeders association is sponsoring a sale Fertilizer To Go To China The distribution of ammonium sulphate from the RFC alumina plant at Salem, Ore., was termi nated on December 31. This plant operated slightly over a nenHttnintf 33 OOU tnnS of this material and 30,000 tons of this was distributed to tne tarrn ers in Oregon, Washington and Mnhn Th nlnnt i now ODerat- ing under the U. S. treasury pro curement and the output will be exported to China. The loss of this material to Oregon farmers makes a further decrease in the available supply of commercial fertilizers to Ore gon growers. Those who are fa miliar wiin tne iertiuzer situa tion believe that it will be about n v.,.i forttlivar i c hnrk to normal. In 1946 Klamath county farmers received approx imately 1000 tons of ammonium sulphate from the Salem plant. Lumber Figure Shows Gain SEATTLE. Jan. 30 (P Paci fic northwest lumber shipments increased 7.5 per cent during 1946 over the previous 12 month period, the Pacific lumber in spection bureau's annual report reveals.

Oregon shipped 492.070.358 feet, compared with a 1945 total of 339.928,560; Washington's 1946 shipments dropped to 310, 253,905 from 353.073,601 feet, and British Columbia ports fell from 747.03Z.3SZ leet in mo to 745,216,222 feet. Range Grass Seeding Tried An experiment to find out if depleted range grasses can be returned to forest lands by the simple method of sowing seed is under way at Weyerhaeuser camp 4, according to a report in the timber company's magazine "The March of Pine." A seed spreader pulled by a caterpillar tractor is dodging around a 50 acre logged and slash burned area near the camp under the direction of E. M. Lindsay, assistant county agent. Whether or not this machine scattering method of seeding can replenish . barren areas in a shorter time than- nature is of interest to wardens and stock raisers. Foresters would like to know whether the grass will sup port tree growth, and what ef fect such plantings will have on the soil, the report said. Lindsay stated that some of the grasses might show up next year and others in two years, but the effect on young tree growth will not be known for five years or more. The Australian wombat, once believed to be an extinct marsu pial, sometimes makes bur roughs 100 feet long. It is said to dig with its forefeet while lying on its side. .
