East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-07-01

The farmers of Umatilla county are
now graphing with the most serious
and far-reaching problem which
ever confronted them, In the spread
of noxious weeds through the wheat
belt.
on many OF the large farms in the
north part OF the county, in the best
portion Of the wheat belt, there are
tracts consisting of 20, 40, 60 and 100
acres in a body which viii net be cut
this season on account of the enor-
nous white mustard plants which
cover the ground and make harvesting
impossible. This land would have
yielded from 80 TO as bushels per
acre and Is in the heart of the wheat
belt, but It cannot be harvested.
For years the small farmers, the
men owning and cultivating from 24O
to $40 acres have been able to keep
but on the big farms, where 1900 to
5000 acres are farmed in a slipshod
manner by a careless renter or a
hired man. the weeds have been al
lowed TO thrive and gain foothold
until 1t is impossible TO handle them
now.
Farmers from that section of the
county are now urging the county
court to enforce the weed law, but It
is impossible for men TO secnre labor
to pull the weeds from the big tracts.
On many OF the big tracts containing
from 1900 to $500 acres there are
nr n hnI 1nza -
working. trying to rid the crop of mus
tard. This number of men cannot
make a showing in the immense fields
and the mustard is simply growing
faster than the wheat, and will ruin
hundreds of acres of valuable land
There are 1850 miles OF road and 35
road supervisors in Umatilla county,
and 1t will be impossible for the
county court to secure help enough to
rid the public roads Of the weeds.
much less to rid the large tracts of
government lands of weeds In differ
ent parts of the county. The court
has ordered the supervisors to enforce
the law, but farmers cannot secure
men to do the work on the large
farms and so the situation is really
serious.
Rich Land Damaged.
Mustard is worse this year than
ever before and with this large crop
OF seed ripening unmolested in the
heart of the wheat belt, the crop next
year can be better imagined than de-
scribed. If there are any clean fields
this year, the plentiful supply of seed
ripening in the foul fields and in the
county roads will foul these clean
fields and it Is only a question OF a
very few years until the entire wheat
belt will be infected.
Unless something Is done to check
the growth and spread of weeds the
wheat producing area of the north
part Of the county will be materially
reduced from year to year. It is i'm
possible to harvest properly wheat
where the heavy mustard plants are
thick and the crop from much of the
land that is cut over will be seriously
reduced.
The one remedy, in the opinion of
practical farmers who are interested
in that portion of the county, Is to
cut the land up In small tracts and
secure family for every tract. In
this way the farm work can be handl-
ed largely by each individual farmer
who cultivates from 900 to 500 acres,
while 1t Is impossible to handle 1t with
small force on 1000 to 5000 acres.
II the land is not rented in small
tracts and cultivated closely and the
weeds killed out, much of the best

Planning Levee Work.

Since the recent. election the levee
committee of the council, of which
Councilman Swearingen is chairman,
has been busy preparing for the
Strengthening and the extension Of
the levee. The committee has full
power to employ an engineer and to
proceed with the work. A capable
man to have charge of the work is
now being sought and it is hoped to
have actual work started early in
August. The work done will be in
accordance with the plans drawn in
August. The work will be in accord
ance with the plans drawn last year
by Young & Kelsay, and will be of a
very substantial nature as was the
work done last fall and winter.
