THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1954 THE EAGLE. AROUND THE FARM Notices advising of the need to •«fiirol fruit fly on cherries, cod ling moth of apples, and the need for the third walnut blight spray were sent out to growers of the county last week. Mailing lists for almost every tummodity are kept and we would be glad to add the names -cf anyone requesting that their rames be placed on these lists. Tent caterpillar control is still « problem in many places, but DDT, methoxychlor, and lead ar- M-oate have given good control in roost cases Cutting and burning *ss effective if only one or two tents are involved, but often <*>any of the caterpillars will be away from the tent and thus es cape to continue their destruc tion. We feel spraying or dust- iitg gives better control and the tree or shrub is not damaged by unnecessary pruning. Silage making is getting into Tull swing in almost all parts of the county. Whether or not to juae a preservative is always a problem, and after deciding that one will be used there is still the question of which one. We would estimate that ap proximately seventy-five per cent I VERNONIA. ORE. KEASEY — Ella Martan and Lola Fugate were out canva^ng for signers for telephone service Quite an effort has been made of our silage is made without the use of preservatives; however, they do have their place in that they are good insurance that spoilage will be held to a mini mum. While there are many dif ferent preservatives, all of which have their good points, we can’t help but feel that beet pulp is one of the outstanding ones. In addition to helping to pre serve the silage, the beet pulp adds feed value to the silage and many other preservatives add no feed value. Beet pulp also has the advantage of absorbing two pounds of moisture for every pound of pulp This reduces loss of silage juices which carry about ten per cent high quality diges table solids. When the material going into the silo is on the dry side, beet pulp should not be used as it tends to aggravate the situation by withdrawing still more moisture from the silage material. New developments in farm equipment are always of interest to us A new type sickle being used by Cowles Brothers, Rainier, may prove to be better for some uses than the present type com monly being used This particu lar one being used by George and John consists of the standard sickle but instead of the normal guard arrangement, another sickle replaces the guards.
