County Agent Photo Early Start In Combatting Weevils LAKF.VIEW Farmers con corned with saving hay crops from alfalfa weevil damage should get an early start, said Bill Moser. Iake County extension agent. Past experience has shown that effectiveness of control de pends on killing adult weevils before egg laying begins. This means treatment should be made before new alfalfa growth starts and before adult weevils are seen in (lie fields. Alfalfa weevils overwinter as adults and lay eggs Ihe following spring. These eggs halch into hun gry larvae, and that's when the trouble starts. 1-arvae eat the growing parts of alialfa. They liave a s)ecial liking for crowns, buds, and leaves. If infestations are severe, larvae may complete ly .skeletonize plant, leaving only Ihe stems. Killing adults before ;egg laying occurs will prevent this damage. If control is delayed loo long, egg laying and larvae development may reach damag ing levels. Alfalfa weevil larvae eat the I.el tlm too C"t.) - 22-1 1J" 2757 l-7r P2 .)'J 2550 132 H521 13 J.

Yields are also reduced in fields infested with alfalfa weevils. Usu ally, their damage will destroy about ono-luilf ton of hay per acre. Fortunately, modern methods make alfalfa weevil control .sim- pie and inexiiensive. One widely .recommended method is to apply heptachlor early in the .season early Granular heptachlor. .straight or mixed with fertilizer, can lie ap plied any time now on bare ground. For best results, appli cation should be made before new growth of alfalfa actually starts. Just one treatment is need ed. Getting tin1 job done early kills off overwintering adults be fore they can lay eggs. II is estimated that control costs only $l $2 per acre, hut returns up to $15 per acre extra profit. Phis profit is from increased leed val ue and tonnage. iiii 3)31 2i.il lid 7n7 i.4 717 ion, 1.120) 2t"l ; )70"O 6s7 li 52T7H 7s75 7h)7 .9)3 J'tJk 552 U2 J2 6AI19 6s7 (2 15U5 1..7-5 37799 1.S12 12.. i 2 J7-ni TU2 595 lf7 1127 Mi t;7 (sJi) Will.

County Agent Photo Farm Bureau Furrow Ity SCOTT I.AMIt Information Director W ith both Congress and the Ore gon legislature going back inlo session, we will be hearing more and more of programs designed to protect the little fellow by pe nalizing the successful. Not many years ago, tlie share-thc-wealth plulosophy would havo ttecn ig nored by most people who were diligently attempting to be suc cesslul. Apparently a portion of the pop ulation has now given up on ever reaching the t of gold at the end of the rainliow. They arc now spending a good part of their lime attempting lo maintain their status quo via special favors and uneconomic rulings designed to dsn limitim, their chance for sue. " ce.ss. o nation or )eople has gone far by protecting the status quo against improvement. Those who maintain wc must jiass legisla tion lo protect the family-type farm are "running scared' of progress. The unfounded fear that cor)oration farming is replacing individual farming oiteralinns con tinues to grow in spite of fads to tlie ccHitrary. It is true that more family oiierations arc in corporating for tax and inheri incc purposes, bul tliey arc still loing oeratcd by families. Karms arc also getting larger. This is good since it is proof Uiat the individual still has the ini tiative to try to make his fortune if he can. To legislate thus right from him simply because the na tion s pessimists are alraifl ol losing out in Ihe comielitive race would lie unsound and unfair to the ambitious. Progress in tlie United States will continue only as long as peo ple have the right to make their own decisions. If Ihi right is taken away by government un der any prelensc, we arc in re treat Faith, hoiie and charity are ittribtiles of individuals nnd can not be arbitrarily shifted lo gov ernments. The future, under free enter prise, is tremendously exciting. If our schools, our government and our jieoplc wmild encourage and take pride in Dial system, tlierc would be no limit to its possibil ities. It is our Itopo that the leg islative assemblies both in Wash ington and Salem will point the Ship of Stale toward that hori ii.ii.
