SEC. II PACE 2 HFRALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS OREGON THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1948 Soil Conservation Experts Say Farmers Beginning To Realize Importance Of Job By PAIX W. HARVrt JR. BAI.F.M, May 13 (P Stall axl eullure experts now are beginning to feel they are havinf some sue cess In teaehlns" farmera that toil erosion eosts money. But they know they still have a lnnt ways to to. There now are 11 toil conserva tion distrtris in Orrnn. They in clude more than &.0O0.0O0 acres of crop and range land. Art King, soils specialist at Ore gon State college, says the country won't have any farm lands unless something Is done to stop erosion. HiKh Tost To show that erosion costs money. King points out that an average acre of fair soil In Oregon contains from 1500 to $2500 worth of nitro gen, phosphorus and potash. That's what It costs when an acre of farm land Is eroded. King says the country has already lost 70.000.000 acres of good crop land by erosion. And It's continuing at the rate of 500,000 acres a year. Here's what F. L. Ballard, assocl- I ate director of the OSC extension service, una 10 any nuuui sous ana soli conservation: "Maintaining the producing ca pacity of our soils is a vital factor In guaranteeing the future prosper ity of Oregon. 'Many things affect the soil con dition the crops grown, the se- i quence In the rotation of those j crops, the Implements and tlllase j methods used, the amount of irri gation water applied ana tne man ner of its application, and the bal ance between crops and livestock In the farm operation. Knowledge Growing "Knowledge of farming practices that will maintain soil productivity and protect the land against wash ing and blowing Is constantly In creasing. Adoption of Improved acrtpicrs has been widespread. "It Is appropriate that we take slock of our position; evaluate the job to be done: and concentrate attention on these Items upon which further progress is most needed." The 4-11 club boys and girls are doing their part. too. They will have their soil conservation projrets this year for the Ulh straight year. Nut Growers The Independent Nut Packers of Oregon has been orgnntvd to help growers of walnuts and filberts pro mote use of their products. The organisation will handle about 30 per cent of Oregon's nuts. One of the bis objectives will be to expand markets In the baking and candy Industries, which art using many foreign nuts. Spittle Hugs OSC Hug Specialist Bob Every warns strawberry growers to watch out for spittle bugs. They suck the Juice of strawberry plants and ruin the berries. He suggests use of rotcnoue dust. Heavy rains wash away the rolen one, and sunshine reduces Its kill ing power. So several applications might be needed. RENT A BIKE!
