Spotted Aphid Warning Told The spotted alfalfa aphid, which .seriously damaged 1954 alfalfa crops in many Western states, is grncUinUy spreading northward, antf it is only a matter of time until It will be found in Oregon, the Klamath County Agent's office reported today. in 1955, tlie pest Invaded Utah, parts of Colorado, Nebraska, Ok lahoma, Texas and Kansas. In New Mexico, losses from this pest in 1P54 totalled an' estimated $4 million dollars. It killed about 90 per cent of spring seeded stands unci nearly 75 per cent of fall seed ed stands in the Pecos Valley, where alfalfa stands were reduced from four years to about two years. Alfalfa growers can tell the whit-Ish-yellow spotted aphid from the pea aphid because it Is only half as large and forms colonies on the alfalfa leaves. Spotted aph ids usually make colonies on the underside of old leaves, while pea aph ids colonize on the end of the stems. Tlie spotted aphid strips the low er part of the plants and deposits a Micky substance on which molds thrive. Crowns left by aphids us ually show up after cutting. Since the spotted aphid has not shown up in this area, growers should be on the look-out as they can be controlled while still in small colonies. Once It is allowed to spread over the whole area. cont rol ts very difficult and loss niHV be particularly heavy. 4 " MHf V . i r' wm am n fi hi ii -ii in """ r i '""P'-T j THE ELEGANT MARBLE-PATTERNED FIREPLACE WALL, the rich walnut grained cabinets and the pastel walls and white ceilings of this living room all are covered with the same kind of modern paneling.

In addition to conserving valu able topsoil, windbreaks reduce heating costs, save livestock feed, and help grow better gardens and orchards, says author Charles Ross OSC forestry specialist. other advantages listed are less dust in the home, more pleasant yard-living, and value of wind breaks as snow-catchers. Ross points out, however, that the bene fits come only through thoughtful planning of the windbreak. Copies Of tne how-to-do-it leaflet, "Wind breaks for Conservation," are available from county extension agents or the OSC bulletin clerk. i.xamples of windbreak benefits are found throughout Oregon, Ross says: Evergreen windbreaks in Mult nomah Counly help prevent wind burn on cane fruits and other fruits. Research also shows that windbreaks insure better sorav coverage of orchards and that bees prefer to work in windbreak-pro tected orchards. Protected potato fields In Mult nomah County outylelded nonpro tected fields where the wind whipped and tangled vines. Similar findings are reported for other vegetable crops. Black locust tree windbreaks are pouplar in Umatilla, County to help control soil blowing. Tests show that 19 times as much phosphate are in the material that blows than in heavier particles that stay on the field. Soil In the Boardman area is so light and sandy that one storm can blow away nearly an inch of toil from an unprotect ed field. Jefferson County farmers are looking to field windbreaks for pre lection to seed crops where winds cause seed logs before threshing. Ranchers and dairymen have learned that windbreaks reduce livestock feed bills and increase calf crops. Recent tests show that tree-protected beef animals gained one-third more even during a mild winter than did unprotected animals.
