Orrell remembers that French's cattle were driven through an opened gate to feed upon a field of grain and that act cost him his life. He lived In Eugene when there were only four saloons, three liv ery barns and one hotel. He came to Klamath Falls in 1928 and two years later opened his shop In the Baldwin Hotel building on Main Street near the Link River bridge. He has looked out across Lake Rwnuna from the same window since that summer day.

Named "Siletz." the berry was developed by George Waldo, a U8DA horticulturist at OSC. The new variety Is extremely vigorous and highly resistant to red stele, the disease that has knocked Mar shall yields In many strawberry producing areas. Waldo recom mends Siletz only for those areas that can't grow Marshall. Plants of the new variety are available from certified growers. A list of such growers is available from county extension agents or from Waldo. Siletz has yielded more than twice as much as the current fav orite, Marshall, on some OSC test plots at Corvallls and Willamette Valley test fields. On trials where Marshall has yielded five tons, Si letz has yielded 11 tons per acre. Threej.vear yield averages at Cor vallls show Siletz the favorite, yielding seven tons per acre com pared to four tons for Marshall. Red stele disease was the main cause of low Marshall yields. While It yields higher, processing tests with commercial freezers and packers and at the OSC food technology department Indicate Si letz processes well, but that its quality Is not as high as the Mar shall. Berry cores occasionally pull out when picked, leaving a small hole in the top of the berry that some times fills with dirt. Some proces sors have objected to this, while others Indicate It offers no serious processing problem. Some jam processors have Said berries were undesirably darker than Marshall. End-of-season berries also are much smaller than Marshall. Yancy Named Grange Chief Carl Yancy of the Shasta View Orange has been elected master of the Pomona Orange. He will serve for two years.

Nov. 23 Don Flournoy of Likely in Modoc County, today commended the California Cattlemen's Association for recognizing that hunting and other outdoor recreation are of vital Importance to million's of California and other citizens and to the local economy. Flournoy, rancher and business man of the area, is a candidate for the State Senate in California's First District, including Lassen, Modoc and Plumas counties, at the special election called for Tuesday, December 6. The candidate pointed to the panel discussion on big game man agement scheduled for the Califor nia Cattlemen's Association annual mee!ln !n Red Bluff on Decem ber 9 and 10, where representa tives of the California Legislature, organized sportsmen, cattlemen. Forest Service and the California State Department of Fish and Game will participate. Representing a wide cross sec tion of those interested in the problem of game management, members of the panel will include Assemblyman Frank Belottl, chair man of the legislative committee on fish and game, and Assembly woman Pauline Davis, vice-chairman of the committee; George Difani, representing .the organized sportsmen of the state; . Seth Gor don, director of the State Depart ment of Fish and Game; F. B. Cronemiller, chief. State Division of Wildlife Management, U.S. For est Service; and Dr. Richard Ta- ber. professor of game .manage ment, University of California. The panel will be moderated by CCA Vice President Brunei Christensen of Modoc County. "The question of proper manage ment of our game resources," said Flournoy. "has been a matter of vital concern to the cattle - pro ducing areas of California. Not only do the cattlemen themselves have a vital interest In seeing that the game is properly maneged so that the ranges are not over grazed at the expense of both wild life and domestic animals, but our own cattle producing counties rely quite heavily upon sportsmen from all parts of California and other areas to sustain our local economy." Flournoy - said there, has been some feeling in the past that the cattlemen and sportsmen have di versified Interests In the field of game management. "I am glad to see the cattlemen are In the forefront in bringing about a mutual understanding with the sportsmen on proper game management," added Flournoy. This panel discussion should lead the way in formulating a specific program which can be presented at the next session of the Califor nia legislature. I expect to support such legislation if I am elected to serve as state senator."

Annlication of amino triazole (ATZi to thistle foliage in the bloom stage or to thistle stubble has given excellent control in pre liminary trials by OSC agronomists D. O. Chilcote and W. R. Furtick. The chemical also shows promise for controlling certain brushy plants and Russian knapweed, the researchers say. Four to eight pounds of active acid of ATZ per acre applied with 50 gallons of water were used in the OSC trials. READING MEANS REAPING when it's Want Ads you're scan ning!

Barley remains Uie best bet, dollar-wise, according to Ore gon State College agricultural eco nomists. For two. years running, the na tion's wheat growers have voted in wheat acreage allotments under government's belt-tightening pro gram to reduce surpluses. The acreage cutback In Oregon prompt ed an OSC survey last year of some 125 basin growers engaged In either all-out wheat operations or a combination wheat and cow-calf livestock program to learn how they could best handle the extra acres. Estimated incomes from differ ent uses of diverted land have been outlined In a leaflet just published by the OSC experiment stution. Wheat farmers with no livestock facilities, say the economists, have little to choose from when they divert the required 35 per cent of wheat lands. Barley, first choice, will bring an estimated 20 per cent drop In Income as compared to a du per cent decline -11 acre are left idle. But even idle acres should bring higher income than seeding the land to grass and financing livestock buildings and equipment. Wheat farmers with established livestock facilities would also profit most oy putting the diverted acres to barley instead of grass at pres ent prices for barley and feeder cattle. The economists estimate that barley could drop to 65 cents a bushel before these farmers could use diverted acres to profita bly enlarge cattle operations, put another way. feeder cattle would have to bring $22 a hundredweight before forage could profitably re place 92-cent barley on diverted acres. The college Is now studying eco nomic possibilities of holding feed er cattle and finishing them with feed grown on the diverted acres. Copies of the publication.
