Opal Crystal Lady, an 11-year-old cow owned by Ralph E. Cope, Jr., Langlols, Ore., completed a 365-day official Register of Merit production record of 18,560 pounds milk containing 1,001 pounds but erfat on twice dally milking. It brought her lifetime milk produc tion to nearly 67 tons. Hie milk pall marathon pace set ter now has the unprecedenteddls tinctlon of being the first and only cow of any breed to produce over i, um pounds ouiteriat during each of five consecutive lactations on twice daily milking. She also holds the top Individual milk record of the Jersey breed Irrespective of milking frequency. Her owner, breed officials, and Interested dairy f arimers had feared the "Lady" would not ac quire the fifth-year title when she became Ul and experienced a se vere setback in production last September. She rallied, however, and made a s"rorislng con.eback from a low of 6.1 pounds ot milk a day to over 55 pounds a day. In seven lactations Opal Crystal Lady has produced a total of 133, 177 pounds milk containing 7,060 pounds butterfat. This amount of top quality milk is sufficient to to serve a glassful of each of 247.771 persons. Such astronomical production fig ures do not satisfy the Jersy pro duction champ, however. She Is getting ready to start another lap on her mil pall marathon some time, in July. taohene Insecticides Used To Battle Invasion Of Cutworms Over South Toxaphene Insecticides are being used to fight tremendous Infesta tions of cutworms and armywnrms reported from several southern states. Indications point to similar outbreaks soon In more northern areas. Most species of these de structive insect pests thrive during a cool, wet spring. The United States Department of Agriculture recently warned about cutworms, and said "A toxaphene dust or spray is the gardener's best weapon against cutworms .

Chlorophyll Business Up When things turn green these days, you don't know whether It's spring, envy or chlorophyll I But with the "breathtaking" news that the Chlorophyll business topped a hundred million dollars last year In sales of tablets, toothpastes, oint ments, etc., let's talk about this amazing greenery for a minute. Chlorophyll was little more than a scientific curiosity In 1915, but now, whole new companies and pro cessing plants have been estab lished to produce it and its deriva tives. Demand for chloroohvii in creases by leaps and bounds, as its thereapeutlc and deodorant qualities find more and more uses. Che process for producing chloro phyll is kept highly secret by man ufacturers. About the only informa tion outsiders have Is that It's ex tracted from alfalia and then con verted Into water-soluble deriva tles known as "chlorophylllns." Surprisingly, an Important ingred ient in this process Is oil the kind of oil that comes out or an oil well. Acetone and alcohol, both of which . are made from oil, are used in secret ways to transform chlorophyll to chlorophyllin, and then into dozens of products. Recently, cholorophyll became a standard supply Item for all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. It's used extensively by U. N. forces In Korea, too, for treatment of combat wounds and other medi cal, surgical and dental purposes. Popularly known as "nature's deo dorant," chlorophyll goes Into more than 160 products like chew ing gum, cosmetics even textiles and shoe liners. From a scientific curiosity, chlorophyll has sprung out of oil and chemical laboratories to become a "green and growing" industry I . : , mended dusting the soil surface of the early garden with 10 per cent toxaphene at the rate of one-half pound of dust to 1,000 square feet of garden area, or spraying the soil surface with two ounces of 40 per cent toxaphene wettable powder mixed In two and one half gallons of water. In Texas and Louisiana, two of the states particularly hard hit, worms have been killed quickly with toxaphene Insecticides. The Franklin Sun. Winnsboro, La., said that armyworms "have reduced the Franklin parish oat crop by at least 30 per cent, and In many fields have practically destroyed this grain crop." The paper point ed out that toxaphene was the recommended control measure and mentioned specific farmers who had wiped out the Infestation with the Insecticide. "Two, bushels of oats per acre saved will pay the cost of protecting the oat crop," the Sun said. Another Louisiana newspaper told readers, "The worms which moved Into grass, oat, and wheat fields several days ago virtually stripped plants In some of the areas, yield ing only to defending farm forces armed with insecticides." The Daily Times Herald of Dal las, Texas, said, "In some cases cutworms have moved over from vetch and alfalfa pastures to ad jacent fields of corn and gardens. One Dallas County farmer has re ported 14 acres of corn were badly damaged by cutworms. "Cutworms can be controlled In fields with heavy vegetation by dusting with 15 or 20 pounds of 20 per cent toxaphene to the acre . " Crop observers in the Dallas area called the invasion "the worst, in years." Rain not only helped to spread the Dallas County cutworm attack, but delayed poisoning oper ations by both plane and ground machinery. mm YouNeVefSaW aTfactor COME IN AND SIE FOR YOURSELF 'fiAopana Standard Implement Co. 2710 So. 6th li BULL SERVICE OR RENT PHONE 3924 IIP DUSTING SPRAYING SEEDING DEPENDABLE "AIR" APPLICATION "Spraying by air doesn't cost it pays!"
