Using Disk Plow for Early Fall
Seeding

The disk plow for dry blowing will
be started on the Oregon Agricultural
college farm during the week begin
ming August 20. 1t will be used on
some of the land from which a spring
sown crop was harvested and also on
the mellower soils from which the
fall seeded crops have been removed.
Many years experience with the
disk plow has shown that when prop
erly used, very good plowing to a
depth of 8 to 10 inches can be read
lily done This plowing Is accom-
plished during the time when the
horses are not busy and the mere
fact that they may be so utilized
cheapens the cost of plowing consider
ably AS plowing is one of the slow
est of farm operations. Dry plowing
lengthtens materially the plowing sea-
son. The dry plowed land can be
quickly put into condition for seed
ing when the fall rains come.
A liberal use of the disk plow for
dry plowing will make available a
very much larger acreage for fall
seeding. Winter wheat, oats and
barley seeded September Is to Octo-
Der 15, are probably the most GER
tain of the grain crops for use in
southern and western Oregon. The
experience Of the experiment station
has indicated that dry plowing is as
productive as land plowed in the
usual way, and when the disk is prop
erly used there is no more tendency
for an Increase in weediness than in
the case of the moldboard plow.
To get in the necessary acreage
of fall cereal we must take advan-
tage not only of late planted land
on which crops have failed, of sum-
mer fallow, and of land in cultivated
crops. but should plow as much as
possible dry as we'll as after the
fall rains set in. In this way we
will get large, early seeding of the
much needed fall cereals to sell at
next years guaranteed price.-G. R.

No Trace Of
Marshall Yet

klamath Falls Herald, Aug. 21.
Another day has passed without any
sign of Horace Marshall, the hunter
who was lost in the Red Blanket
country last Wednesday.
Friends have almost given up hope
of finding the missing man alive now,
as he would certainly have reached
some camp or been discovered had he
been able to travel. 1t Is believed by
some that he wounded some animal
which turned upon him, inflicting.
serious injury.

Lithia Springs to Be
Further Developed

Development of the Pompadour
spring just above the city lithia
spring last summer somewhat affect
ed the flow in the city spring. AS a
result the council appropriated $50
Friday night with which further de-
velopment of the city spring will be
made. Those familiar with the
ground say an abundance of lithia
can be developed at small cost near
the present spring and can be turned
into the present spring reservoir so
that the pumps will not need to be
disturbed to increase the flow.

n. T. Lindley, of this place, received
a anti-air craft shell from his son, Ode,
fore part of the week, and it has been
the curiosity of local folks since arriv-
ing here. The shell is about fourteen
inches long, made of brass, and carries
a bullet of no small size. The shell had
been fired before being sent here, and
N. T., now says that he has discovered
a way of defeating the provisions of
the "bone dry" situation in Arkansas.
He anticipates sending the empty shell
to one of the local dealers at Monet,
Mo-, have them fill the shell with the
seasons best vintage, and then fire it
from an anti-air craft gun towards
northwest Arkansas. N. T. figures
that the shell should fall in the vicinity
of Springdale, and if not in his back
yard, in some other dry territory"
Local folks are anxiously awaiting the
experiment, and trust there vii be no
"leaks."
