Perrydale Cow Wonder

Perrydale, Ore, July 17,-Fran~
E. Lynn, who owns and operates a
large Jersey breeding establishment
just north of Perrydale, has been no.
titled by the American Jersey Cattle
club that his COW, Poppy's Dortha,
has broken the worlds record for
junior 3-year-olds of the Jersey breed
by producing 9s4.4 pounds of butter
fat on a yearly test,
The former record of S92 pounds
was held by vive La France, owned
by Pickard Bros. of Marion, Ore. Vive
La France, however, still retains her
worlds record of 1881 pounds as a
senior 4-year-old.
The new champion was bred by Mr..
Lynn. She was sired by st. Names
Golden Poppy, bull from the famous
Ed Carey herd at Lafayette, and her
dam is the imported COW Ladyslipper
of Stilton, bred on the Island of Jer-
sey.
The new record not only gives
Poppy's Dortha first place among
Jersey junior 3-year-olds, but also the
fifth highest record for cows of all
ages of that breed, She is looked
upon as a future champion butterfat
producer. irrespective of age.
ponnv's ,Dortha is a baautiful cow
with splendid conformation and re-
markable udder development. Dur
ing her test she produced 1880
pounds Of milk.

er investigator who sees this. We
believe that we have here more avail
able data that is fairly conclusive in
it's results than any similar amount
that has been produced. We shall
watch very carefully for further in
formation along this line. One Ques-
tion which we are unable to answer
is the probable amount Of sulphur
that would be necessary to apply TO
destroy these worms. At the present
time we would say $50 pounds to the
acre, however this might be too lit
tie, We do not know. 1t is believed
that the sulphur will add to the glu-
ten in the wheat and to cut down
the percentage Of yellow berries In
the turkey wheat and add to the mar
ket value of the grain. This, how
ever, is matter for further deter
mination. We advise every farmer
to experiment little along this line

we do not advise any man to go too

Meeting of Executive Commit
tee of Morrow County Farm
Bureau June 26, 1920

This was one of the most fully at
tended meetings held this year and
the committee had a good deal of
work to take care of. The labor COM
mittee met with the executive COM
mittee to consider the fixing of wages
for the summer season and it was
the unanimous opinion that $500 a
day should be suiiient pay for all
help during the harvest, and that
common labor should include the
box drivers, leaders, stackers, sack
jig. and the header tenders on COM
bines That other labor should be
adjusted from this basis. The exc
cutive committee OF the Morrow
County Sheep Association met with
the Farm Bureau and the consider
alton which had been handed up
from the local Farm Bureaus at
Boardman, Irrigon, Alpine and Wells
Spring, that the county vote a tax to
take care of the rabbit situation was
approved and coupled with the re-
commendation of the Sheep Commit
tee that this be doubled and that the
balance be used in assisting paying
for government trapper and assist
in destroying ground squirrels. This
was approved and committee ap-
pointed TO take the matter up with
the county court and the district at
torney TO see whether or not the mat
ter woud be entirely legal. At this
meeting plans were made for hold
ing a grain grading school and a
grain tour and both were given con-
siderable consideration. The report
of the County Agent on the progress
made and preparation to receive dis
tillate was submitted and approved
and tie bills submitted were ordered
paid by the local treasurer. Another
matter that came up for considera-
tion and considerable discussion was
the fact that some of the road dis
tricts are out of funds but in sore
need OF work being done because of
rocks, ETC., in the road. This was
given considerable discussion and it
was ordered as the sentiment of the
meeting that the Farm Bureau favor
the use within each district of all
the money provided by the law,
which is 20 per cent of that raised,
for its own use and that if this was
not sufficient special tax levy should
be made to provide for anything fur
ther along this line. The wire-pool
appearing nearly completed was dis
cussed at some length, several noti-
flying us of their intention to join in
this shipment. No other business COM
ing before the meeting and the hour
grown quite late the meeting ad-
journed until the 4th Saturday of the
coming month.

Those Wire Worms

Many farmers not only in Morrow
county but over the entire Northwest
are very much interested in wire
worms. We are surprised at so lit
tie information available as to how
to destroy these. Its just as much
up to us as any body else. So far the
only matter that has been given SER
ious consideration is that it is best
that continuous cultivation of sum-
mer-fallow will eventually assist in
reducing them. This is not, however,
a very satisfactory solution although
it might be effective If continued long
enough, but it would mean a num-
Der of years and during the mean
time the ravages of the worms would
continue. Last year the County
Agent published in the Morrow Coun<
ty Farm Bureau News a statement
that he felt that sulphur might give
some relief in destroying this pest.
Plots were accordingly prepared but
it was unfortunate that the worms
did not work anywhere in the field
where these plots were found. 1t is,
however, apparent at this time that
where sulphur was put on the plots
there has been quite an increase in
the wheat yields. The definite
amounts have not yet been determin-
ed but it will be determined before
harvest. Another point that is Of
great importance is that four gardens
which were treated with sulphur
where the worms had been particular
ly troublesome in years past, not
withstanding the fact that worms
were bad in other gardens this year,
were entirely free from worms. To
corroberate this we have a statement
from Medford where one of the exper-
imenters there has tried sulphur on
fruit trees trying to eradicate woody
aphis from the roots of the tree and
in checking on the results Of the
aphis on the fruit discovered that
there were absolutely no worms or
beetles Of the variety producing wire
worms around the trees where the
sulphur had been placed. While on
corresponding trees where no treat
ment was used as many as three hun
dred to three hundred and fifty Of
these beetles and worms were found.
This is encouraging. Added to this
we have a very clear statement from
John Wightman, our orchard commit
teeman near Heppner, who on exam
ination on one piece of ground which
had for years given him great deal
of trouble with wire worms, so much
SO that he was never able to receive
a stand. When he went to the field
this spring to seed it to barley and
on examination found that the hand
full of dirt produced three or four
wire worms and the ground seemed
to be more greatly infected with wire
worms than ever before. He there
fore applied sulphur at the rate Of
$50 pounds per acre; the result is
that there is practically no worms at
all at the present time and for the
first time in years he has received
good stand of barley and the worms
did him no damage. These things
are encouraging. We do not claim
that this is the final solution but we
commend this not only to the con-

Care of Summer Chicks

The rooster has no effect on the
egg yield of the flock. He merely
fertilizes the germ of the egg and
this fertile germ in hot weather re-
suits in partial development of the
chick. Warm weather has the same
effect on fertile eggs as an incubator.
The fertile egg may leave your farm
in an edible condition, but be unfit
for food by the time it reaches the
consumer. Every bad egg hurts the
consumption, lack of demand cuts the
price and every poultryman is af-
fected.
Did you ever sit down to breakfast
in full anticipation of two fresh, soft
boiled eggs? You perhaps remem-
Der your disappointment when open
ing the egg to find that--wen any
way your interest in soft boiled eggs
Immediately fell below par.
Have you observed the good house
wife losing confidence in the quality
of eggs produced on her farm by first
breaking them in saucer to see
whether they were fit to eat? Why
should she get angry then, when the
egg buyer refuses to pay for the bad
eggs as seen under the candle?
Avoid this loss by killing, selling,
or eonfning the male birds. Over
fifteen million dollars was lost last
year in the United States through the
sale of fertile eggs that had partly
developed chicks in them before
reaching the consumer.
Have you preserved few eggs in
water glass solution while they are
cheap, for cooking purposes next

winter when they are high in price?
Ask the County Agent or write the
Poultry Specialist at the Agricultural
College for printed instructions.
Egg production is rapidly falling
off. This is due in part to the pre-
sence of large number of Stacker
hens in the flock that only lay during
the ideal conditions Of early sprfns.
Culling schools and public demon
strations will be given this fall in all
counties organized for poultry work
and every one who keeps poultry
should learn how to select the loafer
hen. This is a dollar and cent bus
mess proposition for the farmer.
Another reason why egg produc-
tion is dropping rapidly is the fact
that people feed too sparingly of the
high priced feed. Because feed is
high. people are inclined to be "stin-
gy" with it, resulting In giving the
hens only enough for body mainten-
anec, with no surplus to be used in
manufacturing eggs.

CRISFIELD ELECTION
CASE NOW in COURT
MandamuS Proceedings To Gust
Councilman Pierce Will Be Heard
July %.

Crisfield, Md. July 20.-Judge
Duer has set July % in the Somerset
Court for a hearing in the Crisfeld
election case mandamus. Former
attorney General Issac Lobe Straus
and Gordon Tull attorneys for a
! number Of citizens and taxpayers OF
Crisfeld filed in the Court a petition
| for a mandamus against William H.
| Pierce. alleged Councilman-elect for
the purpose of ousting Pierce from
the City Council of Crisfield on the
grounds of ineligibility.
The mandamus proceedings grew
out of the candidacy in the last mu-
nicipal election of Mr.. Pierce for a
seat in the City Council of Crisfeld.
| Pierce was returned elected, but Ben
jamin F. Somers filed with the out
going Council a contest of his seat
on the ground that he was not tax
payer and was, therefore. not eligible
| to have been elected Or to serve in
| the City Council. After an examina-
| ton of the tax books, by which it
was shown that Pierce was not tax
payer directly or indirectly, the out
going Council declared him dis
| qualified. Despite this action how
ever, Mayor Wyatt proceeded TO
qualify Pierce for office by swearing
him in one June IA. The following
day-June 15-Pierce filed what
purported to be an appeal from the
decision of the old Council in the
| Circuit Court.
| The petition filed by Straus and
Tull denies that Pierce has filed a
| legal appeal, reasserts that he was
not a taxpayer, directly or indirect
| ly, on the day of the election, and
asks that he be enjoined from hold
| ing or attempting to hold the office
| of Councilman, or from dischargins
1 or attempting to discharge the
duties of said office. A point is
made of the provisions of the City
| Charter which provides that a man
must have been a taxpayer at least
II months next, proceeding his cleo
ton, to be eligible for membership
in the City Council.
The petition also makes Mayor
Edward P. Wyatt party to the
suit, on the ground that he acted il
legally and unauthorized in admins
tering the oath of Office to Pierce
after he, the Mayor. had been &C
quainted with the action and deci
sion of the outgoing members of the
Council. The petition asks that the
Mayor be required to vacate, revoke
annul and cancel the qualification Of
Pierce administered by him, anc
likewise attacks the validity of the
certificate of election issued to Pierce
by the Clerk of the Circuit Court.
