HORSES LEARN
BUCKING ARTS
Veteran Broncos Hardest
to Ride; Mares Are
Not So Good

Even a bucking horse gets better
with practice" says Rock Richmond,
Kennewick man who makes a bus
mess of furnishing rough riding
ponies for rodeos. "A young horse,
such as Snake or Smoky, may be
a good bucker, but let him get a
little age and experience and he
learns more tricks and jumps and
can pile his rider quicker"
One doesn't have to train a hore
to buck, Richmond reveals. That's
one thing horses know by instinct
On the other hand, ridden out and
properly broken, even the worst
bucker might become well behaved
and safe.
Most of Richmond's string of 20
bucking horses are eight to nine
years old. One venerable old bronco
is Is. "More He'll" the horse that
killed his rider, is 10.
The Kennewick rodeo is the sew
enth show in which Richmond's
horses have performed this year
three at Prescott and one at Day
ton, Waitsburg and Spokane.
"A gelding makes better buck
ing horse than a mare" says the
rodeo man. During the mating sea-
son a mare just can't keep her mind
on her work." u.s.

Cannery Expects to Start
Up Again on Toms on
August First

Following on the heels of sea-
son when blight made tomatoes al
most as rare as ice cubes IN the
Sahara desert, dame nature has
smiled on the plants here this sea-
son and the prospect is for a fair
crop of this important Kennewick
vegetable.
While there is no great acreage
planted this year, farmers hesitat-
ing to risk another complete fall
ure, reliable estimates place the
acreage at Kennewick, Richland,
Pasco and adjoining areas at close
to 100 acres. Nearly everyone who
planted tomatoes this spring will
have enough for his own family
while those who planted half acre
or more will have surplus to sell.
Two of the best tomato fields
near Kennewick are those of Ole
Brue, who has four acres right be-
low the Kennewick grade school and
Frank Yoshino, Highlands. Yoshino
has about eight acres. f.. o." .
Other farmers who have an acre
or more of tomatoes are I. E. Parks,
A. H. Jones, Everett Dague, Paul
Pasche, H. N. Paulson, D. G. Bor-
gen, j. w. Tippie, Glen Nagley,
Harry Yamagami, Ole Johnson. A.
Gilmore, Sam Kuh and Joe Kuh.
F. w. Davis, George Nelson and j.
b. Whitehead have tomatoes at
Benton City while John George, the
George Brothers, John Citron and
Bus Munsey, Richland, have nice
fields.
The Kennewick Canning Co. Inc.
is making ready now to can toma-
toes and expects to have the canery
operating shortly after August l,
or as soon as sufficient tonnage is
available. The local firm will buy
all the ripe tomatoes growers can
deliver at the plant.

Farmers May Get Help
to Fight Weed Pests

During the past few weeks county
agent Skuse says that many farm
ers have asked him about control Of
noxious weeds such as morning
glory, star thistle, Siberian must
ard, etc. Surprising as it may seem,
the seriousness of the weed menace
is not well understood by many. #
they could see large acreageS in diff
ferent states that have been aban-
doned to weeds they would be able
to have better realization Of what
confronts them.
One authority states that land
which is badly infested with nox-
ious weeds has the equivalent Of a
mortgage of $4,000 an acre against
it.
Many farmers let a situation creep
up on them till it has become a
much larger problem than it was to
begin with.
Like disease, the treatment to
prescribe for eradication depends
upon the extent of trouble. Differ
ent methods are to be employed for
different conditions.
Mr.. Skuse states that in general
the best strategy is to take the
fight to the enemy" rather than let
him bring it to you. He will be glad
to advise with those who wish to
talk their weed situation over with
him, and also wishes to state that
under certain provisions Of the Ag-
ricultural Conservation Program,
payments as high as $500 an acre
for cultivation methods and $40 an
acre for chemical methods may be
secured. This will be a big help.

MONEY FOR FARMERS

Many farmers, even on compare
lively small acreages will receive
$4,000 up to $4,000 or more in bene-
fit payments in accordance with
the new Agricultural Conservation
program, simply by filling out work
sheets at the County Extension Of
flee in Kennewick on any day
according to the announcement of
Waldo w. Skuse, county extension
agent. /.
While a considerable portion Of
the farmers have already filled out
work sheets, Mr.. Skuse said that
he was surprised that more had not
yet done so because If work sheets
have not been filled out before the
closing date, which has been an
nounced for July 18th, the farmers
will not be eligible, and will thus
throw away any opportunity they
may have had to cash in on the pro-
gram.
In order to prevent a rush at the
last, farmers are urged to act at
once.

SHOULD FILE
LOCATION OF WEED PLOTS

Farmers who plan to adopt eradi-
cation of noxious perennial weeds
as a soil-building practice under the
1886 Agricultural Conservation pro-
gram should begin by filing with
their county agricultural committee
the location of the land on which
they plan to adopt the practice, +.
E. Balmer, director Of Extension, in
charge of the program in Washing
ton, says.
This filing is an essential prelim-
mary requirement in qualifying for
payment for eradication Of weeds
under the new farm plan, Mr.. Bal
mer says. Treatment may be by
either chemicals or by periodic cul-
tivation. The payment rate for
chemical treatment is SO per acre.
and for the cultivated method the
rate Is IS an acre.
The amount of weed control which
farmers can undertake and receive
payment for is limited by the soil
building allowance for the farm.
This soil-building allowance is de-
termined by multiplying by 81 the
number of acres on the farm which
are in soil-conserving crops or de-
voted to practices which may be
substituted for a soil-conserving
crop.
Detailed information on the
handling of land for control or the
eradication of perennial noxious
weeds can be obtained from the
county committee when filing the
preliminary statement. The land
must be handled according to ap-
proved standards in order to quail
fy for payments.
