Zorsrh cautioned nrglrulture chemists gathered hero that they would be heurliiK during the next few months ol tests In which "negative results" from the ui.e ol Krilium soil conditioner would be rejiorted. Such so-called "Iiul tires." he pointed out, would lull lulo two classes. Amateur soil and garden enthusiasts who have man aged lo obtain samples of Krilium occasionally will get poor results lrom their tiso.nf It because, nt Inadequate knowledge of how to apply tho new mateiinl. Monsanto rea lines, Zorsch said that a substantial percentage ol technical rooperutors' results "will be filed under a negative heading." It Is Important to understand the reasons behind such classification, he added. In some cases tile con centration of Krilium will havo been deliberately kept loo low.

Willie Monsanto has announced that tin new product would sell for under 2 per pound in Its Initial pro- I duclion stages, the company as well as Its cooiieraiors is con tinuing to study Uie economics ul Krilium carefully. "Such factors as rnw materials inanulacturlng methods and volum production will undoublledly play their Iradltlonul purls in IiiIIuiik lug price." Zorsch said. "The economics of Krilium will ,be further Influenced by Ihc amounts ol the product needed in given applications and the hie of each treatment. In the meantime. would be unrealistic for Monsanto to pin down its price more specifically." FROST DAMAtiP.

Consider its quality . . . consider its price . . . con sider its reputation'. ' .' consider the parts and service guarantee. Then you will know WHY more Minneapolis-, Moline Bale-O-Motics were sold in the Klamath Basin last year than ALL OTHER MAKES OF AUTOMATIC WIRE TIE BALERS COMBINED! There are engineering REASONS for the Bale-O-Matic's success. No other baler gives you all the design advantages incorporated in the new 1952 Bale-O-Matics plunger crankshaft with TWO main bearings; wire that unrolls evenly from the OUTSIDE to the INSIDE and con trolled by automatic brakes; bales tied under compression with strokes of the plunger crankshaft for a simpler tying mechanism and for greater reliability; exclusive raker-bar action thot "floats" and "rolls" the hoy into the bale chamber with a minimum loss of leaves and maximum capacity; the exclusive M-M knot that ABSOLUTELY cannot come undone. And for 1952, the Bale-O-Motic features a completely new trip mechanism that is fool proof. Engineering provides 50 of the reasons for the Bole-O-Matic's success. A reputation for service and parts provides the other 50. May we give you the complete story? siCMfrs Squirrels, Mice Out; Poison Time Oround squirrels come out In the spring and we don't want 'em. The County Agent's Office has prepured a poison oat which has proved effective In killing ground squirrels. Ground squirrels are ef fective destroyers tl pasture, bay and gralnflelds. They live In burrows, snd eat off the plants surrounding their homes. The poison compound Is placed In the holes. One bole plant can kill a whole family. The poisoned oat preparation Is available from the County Agent's i office or froi. the main farm j stores here. Its components are : supplied bv the Federal Fish and ! Wildlife Bervice. Field mice are also devastators of fields, and this year, after a heavy, continuous snow, they are more numerous than normal. The tiny mammals work under the snow blanket, and reports are they have multiplied considerably this season. There have been a number of cases of fruit trees j being girdled under the snow. Er.it for mice rs oat groat, also I of the poison variety and also obtained through the same sources as ground squirrel bait. About this time of year the mice move out of the cleared fields pnd Into fence rows. That's where the bait should be applied.
