N YS S A G ATE C IT Y JO U RNAL, TH U R SD AY, OCTOBER 13. 1988 OSC H ARD Y VETCH STR AIN IN COMM ERCIAL P LA N TIN G SUNSET V A L L E Y ‘ CO RVALLIS—An Improved strain of common vetch which is winter hardy, recently christened "W illam ette Vetch,” by its originators at Oregon State college, will be in com mercial production in 1939, accord ing to H. A. Schoth, federal agron omist at the station. The new vetch is a selection from common vetch made first at Cor vallis in 1921. It has been grown by Schoth ever since, gradually being increased and purified, until it is now a distinct strain. In the south, where most of Oregon’s vetch seed Is used for cover crop purposes, the Willamette vetch has proved unusu ally hardy and has even withstoond winter temperatures as far north as Maryland, federal specialists in the east report. Because of the recent discovery of the vetch weevil on hairy vetch, it is possible that the new variety may be used extensively as a substitute. The vetch weevil has never been found attacking the common vetch, being confined to the hairy vetch and hairy podded vetch. A considerable quantity of the Willamette vetch was grown In Washington county this year on clean land, making possible the cer tification of the seed by the exten sion service. • > . . ---. — Wm M A LH E U R C O U N TY GRANGE C ALEN D AR ------ + ------ Boulevard Grange meets second and fourth Thursdays at 8:00 p. m.

Parrish. Extension Poultryman. North Carolina State College. WNO Service. Poultry authorities agree that ade quate range, shade, and green feed are three essentials for well-man aged flocks during the hot summer months. When growers are ready to mar ket their birds, those who have been careful to observe these essentials will find they have been well paid for their efforts. Where home-mixed rations for pullets are used, the following grow ing mash is recommended: 35 pounds No. 2 yellow corn meal, 20 pounds standard wheat middlings, 20 pounds No. 2 heavy oats finely pulverized, 12 pounds standard wheat bran, 4 pounds fish meal (55 per cent protein), 2 pounds meat meal (55 per cent protein), 2 pounds dried skim milk, 2 pounds ground limestone or oyster shell. 2 PO TATO TAGS TO GUIDE OUTLOOK IS FOR MORE HOGS, pounds bone meal, and one pound LOCKER STORAGE DESIGN USERS OF OREGON SPUDS SAYS F A LL OSC REPORT iodized table salt.
