Lyon of the Confederacy is shown in this death scene. All slides in the collection are in full color. . WESTERN scenes such as this Indian attack are also a part of the antique slid collection. Chemicals Work Well . Use of chemicals . to control weeds on wheat fallow land dur ing winter months . is now practi cal, according to an announie ment from the Oregon' State Col lege agricultural experiment station. A chemical called amitrole, ap plied along with the ester form of 2.4-D, will give excellent con trol of most winter-growing weens, reports Dr. W. R. Furtick. weed control scientist at OSC. The new winter fallow program consists of applying two pounds ot 51) per cent amitrole and two pounds of 2.4-D ester per acre as a spray. Use of amitrole on wlieat fields has now been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture if it's applied eight months be fore wheat is seeded, Furtick said. Cost of the chemicals used in the new spray program will aver age about $0.50 per acre at present prices. Furtick estimated. Cost of application will have to be added to this. I The chemical winter fallow pro gram w ill eliminate several of the early spring cultivations now need ed to control cheat grass, rye. and other weeds and volunteer grains that spring up rapidly in wheal fields after fall rains, Furtick said. At present, these weeds often form dense mats that are diffi cult to control. However, the winter program won't control weeds that grow during the summer months, and several tillage ocrations will slil! be needed during this time. Other new chemieah, such as atra.ine. may solve the summer weed problem in the future, Furtick ob served, but several years of re search on residue problems are still needed before permission can be obtained from federal author ities for their use. Tlie new chemical winter fallow program will make stubble mulch farming practical again in many areas, Furtick noted. Many wheat ranchers have had to abandon the soil-conserving stubble mulch system and resort to plowing in order to control winter weeds. I More information on the chemi cal winter fallow program, along with Sccific recommendations Tor individual problems, can be ob tained from county extension agents, REMEMBER! when it comes to a truck, see Bob or Juck Trucks are their business!
