PACE EICHT HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON TRIDAY, JAN. 1UI Certified Spud Seed Interest Up Strong prices for commercial po tatoes have stimulated Interest 'n local certified seed. Considerable certified seed lms been last to the basin through commercial sale on trong markets In prsI years. No Oregon certified russet need ran be taKged before test planting results are available. No Oregon russet seed can be tagged as certi fied If test planting results show more than 3 per cent leafroll. The Oceanslde tolerance for leafroll In certified seed has been cut to one per cent this year. Meanwhile, growers will have to study test planting and field In spection reports. Orowers feel that one per cent leafroll In seed is about the maxi mum for successful commercial pro duction. But if the county is to plant Its 13.000 acre 1948 potato al lotment, seed carrying as much as one per cent leafroll or more will have to be used. Klamath county has about "70.000 or 80.000 sacks of seed that is likely to pass that planting under one per cent leafroll. About two times that amount of seed is needed for this year's planting. Jlelald and New-l FAIIBM NEWS Cattalo Calf, Kangaroos Join Black-White Animals Life in the private animal park on the C. V. Barton Black and White ranch in Poe valley has been enlivened by three new arrivals one an unusual youngster. This little black fellow is unique in that his mother is a cattalo, half buffalo and half black Angus. Hy brids don't usually reproduce and when they do the young rarely sur vive. This baby Is three-quarters buffalo, having a buffalo pa. He was born on the ranch Just before Christmas. The catuuo had two previous calves but neither survived. Two lively half-grown kangaroos complete the new animal trio. This pair came from Sacramento. an amazing leap, powerful haunches, thick heavy tails which they use as a support when standing and a leverage when jumping. The male is larger and dark colored. The fe male is a light grey. They are vegetarians and eat two meals a day of barley and stale bread. There have been 'roos before in i the Barton park but they succumbed to some mysterious malady as did need to scare un around 2on rnr nf I seed outside the area or plant seed testing over one per cent leafroll or seed not tested at all. If some of the better certified seed lots In the county are lost through commercial sale, the qual ity of this year's crop will suffer accordingly. Copies of field inspection results for Klamath county certified russet acreage are available at the county agent's office. Copies of Oceanslde test results will be available in early February. tlie ostriches and Hamas.
