Basin Farmers Gypsum Application Plan Considerable Interest III gypsum application Is evident among banln farmers. Most Int.-re.Med are Omse liirmlng the heavier textured noils carrying considerable amounts of alkali salts and inclined to be father light. Structure of soil Is dependent largely on humus content and on whether or not sodium Is the dom inant alkali element. Soils which are slick when wet and which tend to run tovrllirr and bake when dry are likely to be low In organic mat ter and high In sodium nalts and base exchange sodium. Soils In which calcium salts pre donilnale are nf better ntrurture. Much soils are not likely to be as slick when wet. tlo not puddle as easily and do nut become so hard and baked when dry. Calcium pro motes a loose crumb-like soli struc ture while niKlltiin Induces puddling and baking Huth sullur and gypsum benefit high sodium nulls by resulting In soluble sodium salts that can be removed. In drain water. Addition of organic matter In the form of crop residues and green and animal manures Is beneficial also. Formation of the desirable gran ular or crumb soil structure most favorable to development of crop plants In governed largely by the content of humus In noli. Humus goea out of alkali noils fast. It dis appears rapidly In soils farmed heavily to crops which leave no residue to return to the soil. If soil structure and humus con tent are lo bo maintained at desir able levels there Is a need for regular return of orgunlo matter.

Borne are loams. Others are clays. The term texture relers to purtlrle tilt. 8iw of the tine soil particles In clay cannot be changed, but texture or grouping of the particles can be changed. Any sources of soil organic matter are desirable. One of the less de sirable sources Is grain straw. Be cause of the low nitrogen to carbon ratio composition of grain straw decumiMsitton Is slow. Decomposing bacterial action drawn on nitrogen available In soli reducing It for plant needs and resulting, from a short time standpoint. In decreased yields. Efforts of farmers In this area lo hasten rotting of straw are evident In the great number of grain fields in whlrh straw was turned under last full and winter. Many grain farmers are also using commercial fertilizers on grain fields to help offset the nitrogen drain brought about by decomposition of straw. One of the objections to plowing under exceptionally heavy tonnage of straw Is the mechanical Inter ference with movement of soil moisture by formation of a straw layer at the bottom of the plow furrow. A number of strow choppers have appeared around the country as a result of efforts to prevent creation of the undesirable straw barrier. According to reports, 10 acres of straw chopiied per day's operation Is about the best accomplished so far. When pioneers r ime to the Ore g'on territory a century ago, It was covered with the greatest abund ance of forests in the nation. This territorial centennial year finds Oregon with still About one-fourth of the merchantable timber In the nation, which It led last year with a harvest of more than six billion board feet. falls Phone 70S The Modern Manner Substitutes For Meat :H In planning substitutes fur in general, we should look for foods thai are rich In protein, Iron and phosphorus.' - . , , In general, meat substitutes con-; Bryant Williams. Spring Lake farmer. Is going Into the sheep busl slst of eggs, fish and other sea foods ' ness in a big way. Bryant recently purchased about 100 ewes and Iamb and cheese. Eggs are probably the , ing operations are in full swing, best substitute for meat. Salmon i has considerably less iron than beef and pork, but added Iron can be secured by eating plenty of greens, whole grain products and dried fruits. Oysters are rich In Iron. Cheese Is a valuable substitute for meat, but It also contains less Iron. Use cheese In meals that contain greens, whole grain products, dried fruits and molasses to help supply the needed Iron. Dried lrgumes such as dried beans, peas and lentils are often ' Slths-I Itllteri fnr nirnt hilt It Ic i commended that this substitution be made no oftener than twice a i veck.

Results of test planting or samples from dusted and undusted plots will not be available until spring. Test planting of samples from 1048 plots showed only a fraction of a per cent less leafroll spread in dusted plots than in plots not dusted.

II PACE I 1 lo 8 per cent leafroll In the hop that conclusive evidence of de creased spread because of aphid control could be obtained. No conclusive evidence of reduced leufroll spread can yet be shown as a result of aphid control with DDT. Investigations carried In Maine with DDT materials Indicates no success In reduction of lealroll spread. Conclusions are that suceesnim commercial production requires seed stocks carrying under 1 per cent leafroll. Some Kliunntli fields plant ed with seed currying 1 per cent leafroll this year could not make U. S. No. 1 grade. Even though results of test plant ing may show a lessening of leaf roll spread In dusted plots It is unlikely that as many as four dust ings during the season will save commercial fields planted with seed carrying as much as 3 or 4 per cent leafroll.
