MarYsville Pupils
Rank High In
Science Exhibits
Shirley Ryan Wins
Superior Rating
Riser Given Honor

Two MarySville students re-
ceived fine ratings in the recent
State Science Day held at Capt.
tai University. Seven hundred
high school pupils, members of
the Junior Academy of Science,
had made and exhibited science
projects in their five home dis
trictS. One hundred and thirty
of the best of these, rating SUI
perior in their districts, were ex-
hibited at Capital on Friday.
Shirley Ryan, Marysville jun
Tor, received the top rating of
Superior in the state for her
models of atoms and molecules.
Judith Guy, sophomore, received
second rating of Excellent in the
State for her exhibit of taxi
dermy.
The Junior Academy is spon-
sored by the Ohio Academy, of
Science, which is made up of
1900 of the leading scientists,
professors, and instructors in the
state. The academy meets for two
days each year on a selected col
lege campus, and dozens OF
papers and demonstrations are
presented to scientists in the diff
ferent fields.
Part of the program is the an
nual banquet. One of the items
on the banquet was the presenta-
ton of five teachers chosen as the
outstanding Ohio high school
science teachers. One is chosen
from each of the five districts.
Cecil Riser, Marysville science in
Structor, was chosen from Cen
trail Ohio.
Considered in the choice are
scholarship, skillful use of the
project method of teaching, acti-
witty in organizing and promoting
the district displays, and the a
rousing of interest in science in
the pupils. Mr.. Riser was awarded
an honorary membership in the
American Academy for the Adj
vancement of Science.
The boys and girls who exhibit
ed, both in the district and the
state, will exhibit their projects
and explain them to the Lions
Club on Tuesday evening.

Council Rejects
zoning Changes
Also Plan Ordinance
To Control Trucks

J Petition to change a section
of property on London ave. from
the residential zone to the COM
mercial zone was rejected by
the council at the regular meet
ing held in the City Building
Thursday evening. They also de-
cided to have an ordinance drawn
up to prevent trucks from using
village streets not on main high
way routes.
The petition to transfer a lot
on London ave. to the CONNER
cial zone, was filed last month by
L. w. Dillon, local used furniture
dealer, who wanted to open a
trailer camp on his property
there. At that time the petition
was referred to the coming COM
mission for investigation.
Frank Stump, els London ave-,
was present at the Council meet
ing, representing the signers of
the original petition. He stated
that the signers wished to reverse
their approval of the change
from the residential to CONNER
cial zone. This change, once
made, would be permanent.
The original signers change in
regard to the petition was brought
on by the immediate possibility
of the construction of a hospital
across from the proposed site
of the trailer camp. They stated
that they did not believe the
trailer camp should be situated
there and it was on the basis OF
their statement that the coun-
Gil rejected the petition.
The matter of large freight
trucks using village streets tc
avoid the main highways run
ming through the town was dis
cussed. 1t was decided to have
Solicitor William Porter draw ur
an ordinance to prevent this.
Increase in rates by the Tele-
phone Company was also briefly
discussed but no action wa:
taken.

Farm and Ranch Experiences
Batting Saves Range
Farm and Ranch Experiences
By JAKE FRANK, stillgater Comfy

OUR FIRST NOTICE and inspec-
ton of the grasshopper infestation
last summer was made by the Still
water county agent, J. c. Kolar and
myself on our range land on Valley
creek, the Downs and Frank ranch.
From there we made inspection of
other range lands and found a bad
infestation of small hoppers We
contacted our neighbors and de-
cided to do something about it.
The county agent got busy in To-
eating some grasshopper poison and
seeing about getting an airp1ane to
do the spraying. After considerable
amount of contacts an airplane and
pilot were located. Shorty Peck of
Billings, would be ready in three
days to start the busting, and the
closest bait was at Hardin The bait
was free and the cost of spreading
was Is cents an acre. After all this
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-09-01

information was gathered, we called
a meeting of all the operators inter
ested. All gave the go ahead sign
to start batting
We began the work about one
morning. We had two flagmen and
a helper to put the bait into the air
plane so as not to lose any time. All
went fine until about a. M. when
the wind blew us out, so we quit for
the day.
The next day things went fine,
doing lot of good Everyone who
made an inspection was enthusiastic
over the good kill.
About 80 tons of bait were put
out for the kill. The bait was put on
at the rate of about pounds per
acre, which we all felt was doing the
job. We were all very much pleased
in the work that was done and the
good results that were achieved.
However, we also believe we could
have started somewhat sooner and
could have saved some additional
grass. We sure will be on the job
this year if the hoppers should start
to show up in the Park City and
Valley creek area.

Fall Treatment
DefOrnls Heads
BY NIKE DARKO
Cbonteau County

FALL SPRAYED about 100
acres for myself, also about IS acres
for neighbors. used about pint
of commercial 2,4-D with 5 gallons
of water per acre. found that this
solution was stronger than necessary
and would advise " pint per acre.
My fall spraying produced larger
heads but the boards were tied in
knot. The heads came through the
side of the boot, the boards re-
manned tied and as the wheat grew,
the heads were bent down until the
straw was broken underneath the
head. Eventually the wind blew
most of the heads to the ground.
Due to heavy moisture conditions
there was a second growth. This was
not affected by the spraying al
though it may have increased the
yield. My spring spraying proved to
be the best The wheat should be
around inches high before spray
ing. I made a test of rs to " pint
of spraying fluid to gallons of wa
ter per acre on few acres of spring
wheat and barley. l found good re-
suits of getting the weeds and the
grain was not affected
Most of my farm land is stripped.

Crested Wheatgrass
With Alfalfa
BY DOUG DAVIDSON,
Custer County

AM VERY much in favor Of
seeding alfalfa with crested wheat
grass for several reasons: It helps
to control. weeds and your alfalfa.
and crested wheatgrass are ready
to cut for hay at the same time to
both make excellent hay. Much bet
ter than either would be by them
selves.
I. take the first crop off on, or
soon after, the 18th of June to give
my alfalfa time to seed before frost.
So far my wheat grass hasn't inter
fered with the harvesting of my al
falfa seed and as a rule it makes the
best of fall pasture.
I planted my first fields in the
spring of 1912 at the rate of three
pounds of alfalfa and five pounds
of crested wheatgrass per acre and
still have a good stand of each. My
alfalfa seed is cleaner and yields
more per acre than where it IS
straight alfalfa Some is on dry land
and some flood irrigated and in both
cases they work out swell. You get
double the amount of hay.

Leveling Project
Saves Water
By LESLIE III. BOYCE
Lake County,

/ AM STILL a novice-having
had my first experience with the
border dixie system of irrigation dur
ing the 1949 season. My first field
of ID acres was surveyed that spring
by the Soil Conservation service and
designed for leveling by Norlin T.
Johnson, the SCS engineer. 1 did
the leveling job myself, as / be-
lieved it would be both cheaper and
more satisfactory than having it
done by a commercial 1eveling out
fit.
I started pulling an 18-cubic-foot
found it wasn't fast enough, so /
changed to a 12-foot level that not
only carried two to three times as
much dirt but also did a smoother
job.
My maximum fill on this field
was IA feet and yardage of cut for
the Is acres was 1900 cubic yards.
After irrigating the field / found
that some of the deeper fills did not
have enough extra dirt in them to
take care of the full settling, so last
fall I had to retouch some of the
spots.
The dikes were made with a 16-
foot wide diker and were spaced IS
feet apart. Our soil is heavy clay
with shallow top soil. I found the
diking system gives an even,
thorough irrigation job. 1t also saves
water because your water is con-
trolled to prevent much waste At
the same time, this system is faster.
In dry year such as we had here
last summer these factors mean a
lot
During the summer leveled an
other five-acre field that had
previously drained from a swamp
area. I also had some of the things
corrected that I found wrong with
the first field. I had my dixie in
creased to 40 feet wide and the side
slope cut to 2 of foot in 100 feet,
whereas they had up to 5 in 100
in the first field. The Sos has now
surveyed the balance of my place.
