200 Attend Stuart
Grass Day Meet
STUART— Two hundred per
sons attended the grass day pro
gram Friday at Stuart, sponsor
ed by the U.S department of ag
I riculture council.
W. E. Ringler, extension soil
specialist, stressed the import
ance of using crop residue, ma
nure and legumes whever possi
ble to build soil fertility He al
so stressed supplementing their
use with commercial fertilizers to
boost yields, but pointed out that
commercial fertilizers alone are
not the answer. He gave data
| collected by the college on corn
tests and other data on native
grass on work conducted by
County Agent Neil Dawes.
L. F. Bredemeier, district con
servationist, discussed the prai
rie fire of last fall in the Wood
Lake area. He stated that many
ranchers knew they would have
to ‘‘rest the burned area for a
year or two.” He said that most
of all the area would need rain
to prevent serious wind erosion.
Some of the area will be reseed
ed. He also gave some experience
of grass seedings and blowout
control in Holt county.
E. C. Conard, agronomist, dis
cussed grass seeding and seed
bed preparation and also t lie
harvesting of native grasses. He
said the most important thing
was to plant the right kina of
grass at the right time on a well
prepared seed bed. He also men
tioned that such seed as Indian
grass, sand lovegrass and switch
grass have a dormancy period of
one year.
ira iv. juanaon, sou conserva
tion service, substituted for E. J.
Dyksterhuis, who was unable to
attend. He discussed range man
agement and pointed out graph
ically that if “you keep down the
shoot you kill the root.” He also
said that by working w.itn nature
instead of against her, ranchers
will be able to improve their
range in many cases.
Harry Ressel reviewed the
coming year’s program of the
PMA. He stated that he would
rather call the stored corn a re
serve instead of a surplus, and
"jted how rapidly the socaller*
surplus of the early 193Q’s van
ished.
Panel members discussing the
harvesting of hay were: John
Steck, of Newport; Rudy Dvorak,
of Atkinson; Kay Siders, of O’
Neill, Dewey Schaffer, of O'Neill;
Bob Clifford, of Atkinson; Neil
Dawes, of O’Neill, moderator.
Many interesting points were
discussed on the pro and con of
round baling, it was fairly well
agreed that it was an improve
ment over windrowing but that
whether a rancher used it or not
and to what extent would have
to be determined by his needs
for additional haying equipment
and his ability to feed it on the
meadows. Round bales are dis
criminated against for commer
cial sale.
Bill Derrick, extension animal
husbandman, climaxed the day’s
program with his discussion on
mineral needs of livestock.
Door prize of $2.50 went to:
Mrs. L. E. Root, of Atkinson; Mrs.
W. D. Whitwer, of O’Neill; Dean
Focken, of Atkinson; Kasper W.
Harley, of Atkinson, Bernard
Hoffman, of Chambers, and Rudy
Dvorak, of Atkinson.
Money for prizes was donated
by the O’Neill Production Credit
association and Eikhorn Valley
National Farm Loan association.
