Weeds Need Last Lick Ag Department Figures Show Business Restless LAKE VIEW Time to get in a U.it lick on those weeds that have been bothering you, all sum mer that is, according to Bill Mo ser. Lake County extension agent .The most effective method of weed control known is through the use of soil sterilants in the fall. Any time before heavy snows set in is suitable for applying coil sterilants to patches of Canada thistle, morning glory, quack grass, and many other hard to kill perennial weeds. Also light applications of soil sterilants to ditch banks and fence rows will eliminate rye. wild oats. elieatgrass, and other annual weeds for from one to three years.

WASHINGTON tUPH - Agri culture is a restless business, ac cording to an Agriculture Depart ment check on shifts in geograph ic location of crop and livestock production. The changes indicate specia zation in farming, whether it's crops or livestock, the department said. Although the location of crops generally changed more than live stock, poultry production shifted more than any other commodity the department said. The rapid expansion of broiler production in the Southeast has given this area a leading share of poultry pro duction. Within the past 10 years, the Southeast's contribution to the total poultry output went from 5 to 13 per cent. The gain in the South- cast was largely at the expense of the Corn iBelt, whose share of the total dropped nearly 6 per cent from 1946-50 to 1956-60, when it was 22.1 per cent of total poultry production. After poultry was subtracted the balance of livestock production pretty much stayed put. The Corn Belt and the Northern Plains con tinued to be the major regions for feeding meat animals. The picture was about the same for dairy little change since World War II. , Cotton and oil crops moved just about as far as poultry. Cotton headed west, mostly to the Pa cific region which recorded a gain of 6 per cent in its share of pro duction over the decade. The cot ton farms of California, Arizona, and Texas have a definite advan tage partly because of high yields. Oil crops took even larger strides than cotton. Soybeans, pea nuts, and flaxseed are included in this group, but soybeans led the parade. While production of pea nuts declined in the Southeast, production of soybeans gained in the Cotton Belt and the Delta States. 4-H Vaqueros Plan Clinic Little Change Forecast Foresters Offer Tins On Firenlace n Nanfings ror m IT RIDING-TRAINING CLINIC SET Monte Foreman, well-known rider, trainer will conduct a clinic at the Klamath County Fairgrounds May 3, 4 and 5.

TWa oichinn tn rvister mav contact Mrs. Barbara Holliday, Rte. 3, Box 237 at TU Now that the winter season is upon us, nere are some sugges tions from the federal extension foresters on colors for the fire place: Evergreen cones, small blocks of wood or kindling, wood chips and sawdust, or even one inch diameter rolls of tightly wrapped newspapers or magazines, tied at both ends, soaked in chemi cal solutions and dried, will give off flames of various colors when they are burned in the fireplace1 to add to Christmas cheer. The following chemicals will produce the colors indicated: Copper sulfate, green; calcium chloride, orange: copper chloride, blue; lithium chloride, carmine; potassium chloride, purple. Do not use chlorates or nitrates, lor potassium permanganate. Che micals should be kept away from children and pets. To avoid stor age, obtain only sufficient amount for treatment. This job should be done out-of-doors. "Rubber gloves should be worn and care used not to spill the chemicals or solutions. The chemi cals should be dissolved in a wooden pail or earthen crock, since the chemicals will ultimate ly destroy metal containers. A discarded five-gallon paint bucket serves admirably as a treating vat, mixing in it no more than a couple of gallons of solu tion at a time. No need to cleanse it thoroughly for a change of chemicals. The ratio is one pound of chemical to one gallon of water, using one chemical per batch. "The materials to be treated may be placed in a mesh or por ous bag, and submerged in the solution. A stone can weight the material down in the solution A day or so of soaking should be adequate. Lift out and drain over the container and spread the treated materials out to dry. If the materials are allowed to dry on newspapers, the newspapers themselves, when dry, may be rolled and wrapped tightly to burn in the fireplace. "The burning of the treated ma tcrials should be confined to a well-ventilated fireplace. "The treated cones and wood en blocks make good novelty Christmas gifts, and bags to con tain them can be made out of dyed mosquito netting." - Bring in Those Rainbirds FOR Free Service The official rainbtrd truck with factory representative will be on our lot Wed., Apr. 24 free service check - you pay only for ports, if needed.

AT THE WINDMILL 7215 So. 6th St. TU 2-3464 Pesticide Caution Given Buy your pesticides only in the original containers and he sure they have not been opened. This is the warning sounded by J. D. Patterson, chief chemist nith the OrcRon Department of griculture. who points out that it is not only unlawful but dan- Serous to sell broken packages of pesticides. The law has been in effect for two years, but the department still receives occasional reports of sale of broken packages. Lack of adequate labeling and mistaken identity were two of the dangers Patterson warned of if pesticides are not in original containers. He also noted that a purchaser could not be sure of his product if the container had been opened. Oregon farmers generally plan little change in 1963 spring plant ed crops from last year, accord ing to the March planting inten tions report issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Total acreage planned for spring planted crops in Oregon shows one per cent decrease from 1962, notes Mrs. Elvera Horrell, Ore gon State University extension agricultural economist. Nationally, farmers have indi cated a two per cent acreage in crease. If farmers stick with their reported plans, the total acreage of all crops this year would be the second smallest on record, she said. Oregon growers report they plan fewer acres of spring wheat, corn, oats, sugar beets, dry peas and potatoes. These cuts slightly more than offset increases planned tor barley and land for hay production. Oregon gorwers expect to seed 14 per cent fewer acres to spring wheat than in 1962. However, Mrs. Horrell points out that increased plantings of winter wheat means that the state could still have nine per cent more wheat acreage this year than in 1962. Growers expect to plant 19 per cent fewer acres of dry peas, 14 per cent less oats, 10 per cent less corn and two per cent fewer sugar beets. They plan to in crease their barley acreage by four per cent and to have two per cent more hay land. Oregon farmers who plant spuds for late summer and fall harvest are planning 35,500 acres this year, a five per cent de crease, according to Stephen C. ROARING TIME THOUSAND. OAKS. Calif.

The wedding took place in a lion arena sur- ounded by cages witn roaring ions, tigers and other wild ani mals. Marks, OSU extension agricultur al economist. Nationally, a one per cent reduction is seen. Idaho and Montana are the only west ern regional stales planning an increase. Onion growers plan to have 5,000 acres for late summer harvest this year, 200 acres less than 1962, he adds. Eastern Oregon looks for 2.900 acres with 2,100 acres in Western Oregon. Nationally, late summer planting intentions show a five per cent increase over 1962, with California planning the biggest jump. Oregon can expect 67.000 acres of green peas for processing this year, slightly less than 1962, but still more than usual, Marks said. Idaho and California plan reduc tions, but Washington acreage will increase slightly. Nationally, pea growers plan a three per cent increase in acres for processing. The intentions re port shows acreage for freezing about the same as last year, but about five per cent more for can ning. Although total acreage of some crops may be less this year, total production could hold up, Mrs. Horrell reminded. Last year. American farmers combined gen eral "know how" and mechaniza tion to hit record yields on many crops and to lift total production to record levels despite the small est acreage of modern times. The planting intentions report is not a forecast, but only a way the agricultural industry may see the whole picture, the economist point out. Many things, such as weather, disease, price, labor sup ply and government programs could change the picture, they stress. ;he state remained in 21st plate nationally. The Oregon total at he beginning of 1963 was 1,170.. m and tlie national figure 74, W.OIIO. January 1, 1962. 1,137, 100 beef cattle were listed (nr Orenon. Figures fur milk cows two years and over in Oregon showed a de cline in 1962, dropping from 170.- CliO to 162.000 from January 1, una to January I. 1963. How- cer. the state remained in 32nd place nationally. lotal ligures or tne nation tne lirst ot this year were 18,730,000 and Wiscon sin was tne leading state witn 2.426.000 head. Oreson moved into the 13th spot nationally from 14th place in the number of sheep reported, but the total number of sheep and lambs in the stale showed a decline. The January I, 1961, figure was 777.000 compared with 851.000 the previous year. Nation ally, too, the number was down. The first of this year 30,170.000 were recorded. A year ago it was 31.446.000. Texas also led the na tion in sheep numbers in 1962. Their figure was 5.651.000. Nationally hog numbers in creased during 1962, but Oregon showed a drop. However, it was in 29th place nationally both years. At the end of 1962, Oregon had 267,000 of the 94,244,000 hogs recorded for the nation. The slate had 271,000 on January 1, 1962, and the nation 93,173,000. Icwa continued to lead the nation in hog production, but. while the nation showed an increase in numbers, Iowa had a decrease. Its January I, 1963, figure was 20.093,000 compared with 20,205, 000 a year previously. Atttatha!
