recently w, were able to find
only a few scattered plants.
Every year since its discovery
this area has been sprayed, but
once the plants go to seed and
the seed gets in the soil it con­
tinues to come up for many years.
Incidentally, there is a tremen­
dous difference between ragweed
and tansy ragwort, but we find
that many folks refer to tansy
ragwort as "ragweed.”
The state has not made any
changes in laws regarding the
control of tansy ragwort.
Oat harvest will be unAerway
in the county soon, although a
few early fields have already
been cut. Unfortunately the out­
look for oats is not as good as it
might be, and some farmers may
be interested in the possibility
of trying to qualify for support.
The support price this year
about 70 cents per bushel.
Farmers may get support
oats in three different ways,
farm-stored loan may be taken,
an approved warehouse loan ob­
tained. or a purchase agreement
signed with, the ASC office in
St. Helens.

grade by being protected from
moisture and contamination from
lodents, birds, and insects, The
farmer has the option of redeem­
ing
the loan minus service
charges by April 30 of the year
following harvest.
When grains are stored in ap­
proved warehouses, loans are
made on the basis of warehouse
receipts showing grade, on the
stored crop minus shortage and
service charges.
Purchase agreements will pro-
bably be the most attractive to
many farmers of this area as it is
not necessary to sign i^p until
January 31, 1958. By March 31,
the ASC office will give instruc­
tions for the delivery of the gram
to an approved warehouse. Ser.
vice charges are deducted from
the purchase agreement price.

Now Is Time for Fall Lawn Work
I
Lawns to be seeded this fall
will be better if seedbeds are
prepared norf, according to Coun­
ty Extension Agent Don Coin
Walrod. Tilling and grading the
soil now and cultivating for the
next three or four weeks, is lm-
portant in establishing a weed-
free turf in September seeded
lawns.
September is an ideal month
to plant lawns in much of the
northwestern section of the state.
By then the longest, warmest
days have passed and good stands
of new grass are easier to obtain.
Preparing the soil involves 3
steps prior to fall seedings. First,
work down the soil to a firm,
level surface. Second, keep the
soil surface continuously moist for
at least 3 to 4 weeks *o settle the
soil and ensure good weed seed
germination. Third, work and
rework the soil surface lightly
during this period until a firm,
smooth, finely worked surface
has been attained and weed
seedlings have b°en killed Extra
effort on these operations means
a better lawn and less work later.
Chemical weed killers such as
2,4-D and 2,4,5-T should not be
used to kill weed seedlings at
this time, warns Walrod. The
chemical may prevent germina­
tion and development of the grass
seedlings.
The fine fescues such as chew­
ing fescue and creeping red fes­
cue and Astoria bentgrass are
generally the most desirable turf
grasses for this area. Any lawn
seed mixture should contain 60
per cent or more of any one, or
any combination of these grasses.
Special Care Needed
For Good Dairy Heifers
Late summer is a critical time
for dairy heifers, notes Don Coin
Walrod, county extension agerv.
They are often forgotten in the
rush of seasonal work. Pastur”
gets short. Water may be limit­
ed or stagnant. Salt is usually
forgotten completely. They need
protection from flies.
Heifers need not b? fat, but
should be kept growing normal­
ly, says the county agent.
