DESPAIR
Slides Tell Civil War Story
It is tlie language of the soul
Which mutely cries;
It is the vision sharply drawn
In sightless eyes;
It is the track of captive bird
With cropped wings which flies;
It is the music of the ear
Which hears but sighs;
It is the laughter framed by
parched lips
'Neath tear-dimmed eyes;
It is the pulsing of the heart
Which, fainting, tries
To rally all its force
In one last effort, dies.

PAINFUL REMINDER
LOS ANGELES (UPII Night
time motorists in I.os Angeles get
a startling reminder that income
tax season is here when they get
within vision of the Federal Build

Lighted windows of the large
building spell out in bold letters:
"Kile now." ' . ,

MORE LIVES were lost in the Civil War than in any other conflict in which the Unit
ed States has been involved. The toll of generals was even high. The death of a Gen.
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

agents,
