T. B. TESTING
BEGINS AUGUST list

Word has just been received from
Doctor Lytle stating that Doctor Der
finger had been assigned again to
Lincoln County and that we would be
able to start the work August 1st It
is hoped that all of the portions of the
county not heretofore tested will be
covered this year and retests made in
those territories where reactors were
found. In order that the work may be
facilitated territories will be tested in
the order in which they make appli-
cation to the county agents office and
which have complied with the request
of the State Veterinarian that the
cattle owners sign an agreement that
they will hIve their cows available at
the time the tester arrives and will
otherwise assist the tester in getting
over the territory as fast as possible.
The following form is suggested as a
form of petition to have the farmers G,
your community sign if you desire to
have your territory tested this year.
AGREEMENT
We the undersigned dairymen OF
...............Co Community, desire tC
have our cows tested for tuberculosis
and agree to cooperate in this work
and will have our cows up and in the
stanchions provided We are notified
beforehand of the day the tester will
be at our farm.

July "a Set for
Meeting of Goat

Predatory Animal Eradication

Considerable publicity has been
given to the necessity for eradicatinl
the predatory animals from the goat

past bounty system and hunting meth.

en- themselves unequal to the occasion

ing the coyote situation particularly
since that time. They have become
much interested in the damage done
by bear, and participated in bear
hunt at Nashville last week on which
occasion Mr.. Stokes Of Toledo was the
lucky party member and bagged the
bear.
Mr.. Williams advises that the coyote
and bear situation can be handled u
much better advantage by the use
of traps than by hunting, and it is
probable that his recommendation at
the goat and sheep meeting to be held
at Eddyville the afternoon of Fri
day the 14th will be along this line.
1t is probable that financial assis-
tance and supervision of the work will
be offered by the predatory animal
department, but in order to prosecute
the work it is likely that additiona.
funds will be necessary from Lincoln
County, and the Lincoln County Coyote
Club is planning an intensive member.

sheep and goat men but every citizen

meeting, as the interest of the growers
will have bearing on the cooperation
which may be secured from the Gov
ernment men.

Early Seeding
Pays the Best
Is Especially So in Dry Years
Like This One, And Applies to
Fall as Well as Spring Seed
ing.

Occasionally there are exceptions to
the rule that early seeding, whether In
the fall or spring, pays best; but the
average figures compiled for a series
of years give an advantage of at least
two to one in favor of early seeding,
especially on the well drained and up
land soils. This season oats early fall
sown are showing good yields. and the
early spring sown oats are far in ad-
vance Of those lat~ sown. In many
instances this year, not only in Lincoln
County, but throughout the Willamette
Valley, late spring crops are practical
ly failures. In the Farm Bureau Pro-
gram of Work for 1923, fall seeding of
oats or rye, or vetch and oats on our
uplands, should be especially stressed.
This year should be a good year to
emphasize the practice for it is likely
that we will not have forgotten the
poor results secured from rte spring
seeding.

Farm Bureau
Activities Are
Aiding Farmers
Highest Aim of Organization to
Make Soil Production More
Profitable; Pertinent Cues
tions Asked.

The Farm Bureau Is an organization
Of farmers Of the Nation having for IFS
purpose the betterment of rural con-
uIuons, aiming particularly to make
farming more profitable. 1t is the
latest attempt at getting the farmers
together for their own benefit and
built on the experience of other sim,
liar organizations of the past. 1t now
has thl National Organization, the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
made up of the various State fedora.
tions, and they in turn Of the County
Bureaus, which are built on the COM
munity organizations, the foundation
of which is the individual farmer
members. Thus the success Of the
whole plan depends on what the in
dividual farmer does.
Are You Doing Your Part?
Unless each individual farmer be.
comes an active integral working
unit the other parts Of the whole or.
ganization are slowed up. In Lincoln
Ciunty we have about two hundred
members, but as yet but little activity
on the part of the individual members.
What we need is Farm Bureau lead
ership. Can't you start something in
your community?
The Program of Work planned by
the Lincoln County Farm Bureau CO.
operating with the o. A. C. Extension
Service is given below Progress is
being made on many Of these projects.

Hungarian vetch was introduced by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture and has been developed at
the Oregon Experiment Station.

1t is resistant to aphis or plant lice.
It thrives On lands that are rather
cold or wet, like white land
1t makes good seed yields and does
not shatter as easily as common vetcn.
| When seed is high priced sowing

duction. Forty pounds an acre is good
but sixty to eighty pounds will be bet
ter when the seed is cheaper. Sowing
with oats is recommended for hay or

Canary Grass
Canary grass is rank growing leafy
plant particularly well adapted to
poorly drained soil. 1t is perennial
and will stand pasturing while the soil
is yet very wet. 1t can be pastured in
the spring, crop of hay or 5iiage
grown and then good fall pasture
secured.
The crop has proven very valuable
in Coos county and was the most out
standing crop shown on the o. A. c..
Experiment Station this spring.
Seed can be secured from J. l..
Smith, Coquelle, at s275 per pound.
The seed is high priced because of the
large demand for 1t and the fact that
1t must be hand stripped. A small
patch may be seen growing on the
&c. and C. Christensen farm of Toledo
A number of large trials are being
made this year at different points in
the county.

ASH BEDS PROVE IDEAL
FOR STARTING PASTURES
seed Covered in Dry fsh Germinates
With First Rains and Usually
Makes Vigorous Stand.

Ideal pasture seed beds are provided
by the ash beds left after many brush
and forest fires, together with the
burning of slashings, reports G. R.
Hyslop. chief in farm crops, Oregon

tion.
The seed covered in dry ash germ.
mates with the first rains and usually
makes a vigorous stand. Experiment
stations results show that such grass
es, properly pastured, remain useful
many years.
a good pasture mixture for western
Oregon well.drained lands as recon-
mended by Professor Hyslop consists
of pounds Of English rye grass,
pounds orchard grass, pounds Ken
lucky blue grass, 3 pounds meadow
fescue. pounds timothy, pounds red
clover or spineless bur clover, and /
pound white clover.
From 1S to 20 pounds OF the mixture
should be seeded per acre If the seed
is of good quality. This will usually
be 140 to $50 live seeds per square
foot If the seed is good.

Try These New

Directions for Growing Ladino Glover
The following description Of La.
dino clover has been prepared by the
U. S. Department Of Agriculture and
the seeds that are being distributed
were secured from the Forage Crop
Investigations, Bureau Of Plant In
dustry.
"Ladino or giant white clover is a
very large form of the common white
clover so abundant in bluegrass pas
lures and lawns throughout the Unit
ed States. In every respect the La
dino clover is similar to the ordinary
white clover except that in favorable
locations 1t grows 10 to 20 inches high
and is two to four times larger In all
its parts. Extended culture of the
crop has been limited by the fact that
it seeds very sparingly in the eastern
states and dependence has had to be
placed on high-priced seed imported
from Italy. Recently, however, very
good crops Of Ladino clover seed have
been produced in Idaho and sufficient
seed for domestic use will probably
be available before long at reason.
able price"
Ladino clover, being shallow rooted
requires plenty of moisture during
the growing season. In Oregon 1t Is
probably best suited to some of the
irrigated land and may be grown on
some that is rather shallow 1t is al
so expected that 1t will do well in the
coast region where Red clover is not
very successful. We desire to try it
out on some black sticky and some
of the rather wet white land Of the
Willamette Valley. 1t is probably not
worth while to try Ladino Clover on
any sandy or gravelly soils that dry
out badly during the summer II is
not quite as hardy as common white
clover and may winter kill IL subjecst-
ed to alternate freezing and thawing.
1t will probably be good thing for
Willamette Valley and coast demon
strations to pasture off or clip off this
clover In the late fall so that it does
not have too much top growth during
the winter months. This precaution
is unnecessary in Eastern Oregon.
For demonstration purposes, 1t is
desirable that the Ladino clover be
permitted to produce seed for the
season of 1922 and 1923 in order that
observations may be made on its total
growth as well as its seed production
habits.
| Culture
The seed bed should be free from
common white clover, should be plow-
ed as early as possible in the spring
and worked down to fine, firm seed
bed. 1t should be thoroughly rolled
in order to get the seed bed quite firm
and so the surface will be fine. The
seed should be put on at the rate of
five pounds an acre, although for seed
production three to four pounds is
probably better. The seed may be
broadcasted and narrowed in lightly
If the surface soil is moist. II the
surface soil is dry, 1t will be best to
cover by going over the land with a
corrugated roller instead of harrow
ing. May or early June seeding is de.
