Strawberry
Named Siletz
A new high yielding, red stele,
resistant strawberry has been re'
leased by the Oregon State Col-
leie aurlcultural experiment sta
tion and the U.S. Department of
Agriculture.
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.

Flournoy
Speaks For
Sportsmen
SUSANVILLE Calif. 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."

Weed Controls
Made For Thistle
Canada thistle, one of the hard
test and most troublesome weed
pests, is giving ground to a chemi
cal weed-killer under test at Ore
gon State College.
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.

Barley Best
For Diversion
What to do with the halfjnillion
acres diverted from wheat produc
tion In Oregon's Columbia Basin
counties? 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.

ing A Half Million Diverted Acres,"
