Initial Donations BY Several
Leaders Exceed $40.000.00
Minimum Goal S250.0O0.00

The advance united fund drive
for the Richland Homes for aging
people is under way this week
with the initial emphasis in the
Sidney, Fairview, Lambert, Saw
age and adjoining rural areas.
The drive was given a good send
eff by the endorsement of % COM
munity and county organizations.
According to Endorsement Chair
man Glayde Yoder, the unani-
nous endorsement received from
all areas is very gratifying and
indicates the recognized need for
the proposed home.
Forty thousand dollars from
twelve Sidney givers was report
ed to drive headquarters by the
Advance and Institutional COM
mittees after initial contacts on
Tuesday. This very good response
from some of the larger givers
is very encouraging and points to
the acceptance of the much need
ed project for the aged.
The Sidney Jayceens gained
he honor of making the first In
stitutional gift of $500. This pre-
sentation was made by Sidney
Jayceens to Nels Bach over
KUMV-TV. Bach, Milt Anderson,
and Elmer Sorenson presented a
very Informative program over
ing the Richland Homes project
on television Monday evening.
Communities outside of Rich
land county are due special trib-
ute for the fine cooperation to
date. According to General Chair
man Nels Bach and Co-chairman
Harry Johnson, Advance Gifts
drives and organization of a drive
committee in each community is
now under way. These include
Plentywood, Reserve, Medicine

Saffower Production in
Western Great Plains

Wyoming, and possible the ex-
IRENE western part of North Da-
kota.
Soil Adaptation
Safflower has a wide range of
soil adaptability from heavy clays
to sandy loans. The best safflower
soils are deep soils that hold
moisture well. For good yields,
soil should be deep enough to
allow roots to penetrate at least
5 feet.
Fertilizers
When moisture is not a limiting
factor in yields, safflower re-
spends very well to high soil fer
tility levels. Until more informal
ton is obtained, it is suggested
that fertilizer applications on wheat
be used as a guide for safflower.
Varieties
Varieties of safflower can be
expected to change very rapidly
during the next 10 years. The
varieties that will be used in
1858 and 1859 will include Ne
braska 10, Pacific 1, and Pacific
7. Many new varieties are in var
ious stages of development and
can be expected to replace these
varieties within a few years.

A State Champion Sidney Eagles
open their 1957-58 schedule this
week when they entertain the
Coyotes from Williston Friday
night in a montague contest.
Sidney's first conference game
will be played in Glasgow De-

Williston's new coach, Bob Pc

lost twice to the Eagles last
season.
The Coyotes, according to Pc
terson, are a comparatively short
club and not a fast breaking
team. Out of a squad of IS only
three II ove six feet.
Sidney's one returning regu-
lar is Ron Quilting. The other
lettermen are John Marman,
Doyle Dotson, Craig Price, Dale
Winter and Dick Helten.
Helten, because of a football
injury, was unable to practice
until this week and it is doubt
tul whether Dick will see any
action this week end.
Coach Toby Kangas will select
his starting "five" from five let
termen and sophomore center
Bob Jensen. This young pivot
man has shown a lot of promise
and Is expected to be a lot of
help to the rebuilding Eagles
this season.
Others suiting up for this mi
tial game will be juniors: Ron

Date of Planting:


In eastern Montana and west
ern North Dakota it is very i'm
portant to plant safflower prior
to May 18th. There doesn't seem
to be too much merit in planting
safflower earlier than April 20.
Safflower that is planted during
the latter part of May or early
June will very likely not be fully
mature at time of harvest, and the
seed produced will likely be only
partially filled.
In Western Nebraska and the
adjacent areas safflower will ma

part of May and early June.

Production Practices
Seed bed PREPARATION:

In general, the preparation of
a seed bed for safflower should
be similar to that used for wheat
or barley. 1t is very important to
kill all volunteer grain and weed
growth Immediately before plant
ing safflower.
The Sidney herald., 1957-11-28
BY Carl E. Claassen
Pacific Oilseeds, Inc.
Woodland, California

The development of high yield
ing varieties with satisfactory oil
percentages, together with the de-
velopment of markets for this new
oil and protein meal, has made
safflower one of the more profit
able crops on diverted wheat acres.
Additional improvements in va
rieties can be expected to come
rather rapidly. Although safflow-
er is now only considered as a
crop on diverted wheat acres, it
is likely, at some future date,
that safflower will be able to
compete directly with wheat for
acreage; similar to the competition
of soybeans with corn in the corn
belt.
The production of safflower is
entirely mechanical, and no spe-
cial machinery is required to pro-
duce a crop. The cost of produc-
ton is about the same as pro-
ducing barley or wheat. The pur-
pose of this article is to ac-
quaint growers with the crop, it's
possibilities and limitations, and
to point out the best production
practices.
Description and characteristics
Safflower is an annual plant
which varies from 112 to 4 feet
in height when mature. In early
stages of growth it is very succu-
lent, but as it nears maturity it
becomes a sturdy plant. Each seed
produces one main stem which
may form a number of branches
= each of which usually has two
to five heads containing 20 to
100 seeds each.
In Western Great Plains, SAT-
flower that is planted in April
and early May will usually require
3 to Is days to emerge. Safflower
does not begin to germfnate until
soil temperatures r above 40
degrees Fahrenheit. After emer-
gence, safflower grows rather
for the first three weeks.
Thereafter, growth is very rapid
until its full height is attained.
Assuming that planting was
lone late in April or early May,
plants will start to form buds
the last two weeks of June,
md Towering will commence dur
ng the latter part of July. Plants
remain in flower for IA
20 days, depending upon the
ate of planting and soil moisture
hat is available. Maturity usually
occurs about four weeks after
,lants are through Towering.
Safflower has a tap root that is
apable of drawing moisture and
nutrients at depths of six feet.
Climatic Adaptation
Safflower is adapted to areas
f the world that have low rela-
i've humidity from the time of
'ud formation until after harvest.

PIews Bats His Woy
Into Somewhere
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star staff Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla, Mar. 90
Whether Herb Plews will wind
up on second base or shift to
third will depend on whether Ed
Yost is lured from the Senators,
but meanwhile the fidgety, be-
specialized infielder is assuring
himself of steady employment.
Plews has ratified nine hits in
"a attempts for a heartening .375
average. Only Jim Lemon, at
1873. can claim a better mark
among Senators who have seer
extensive service in exhibitions.
Hes still Eighty in the field"
Manager Chuck Dresser says,
but that isn't anything that
steady play won't cure. l think
he's just SO wrapped up in try
ing to make the grade that he's
about to lump out of his skin,
but he'll settle down eventually"
Strong After July
Plews batted .27O as a rookie
last year. He didn't crash the
lineup as a regular until July.
The wedge proved to be an ex-
hibition game against the Phils,
with Herb collecting five hits in
as many chances.
Thereafter he was a fairly
solid smacker. In 81 games
after being installed at second
base he batted 900, and down
here he has picked up where he
left off last season.
The former University of Illi-
nois baseball captain has a habit
of approaching a grounder with
the back of his glove to the
ball. Ticking the pocket around
at the last split-second. This
habit makes Dresser jumpy, but
nevertheless Herb handles him.
