Nebraska is already a big pro ducer of Safllower oil and PVO has an oil extraction plant loca ted at Sidney, Nebraska. More than passing Interest is being shown in the commercial production of castor beans in Nebraska. Officials at the Federal Lab oratory estimated that the in dustrial market for castor oil may increase from 10 to 50 times. About 90'- of the castor oil now used in the U. S. is im ported. The need for domestic acre age was heightened by a move by Brazil to restrict the export- ing of castor oil. That country planted, are aware that the late wants to keep its castor oil at! planted wheat, did not winter home to promote local indus-j weu now the decision must be trial development, the PVO of- made to leave it or to plant an ficials said. I other crop. Federal castor bean test plot i statistics show that Nebraska yields, both irrigated and non irrigated, have consistently i averaged higher that those ofj Texas, Oklahoma Mississippi! and Kansas. Dr. George Kohler, Chief of the Field Crops Laboratory at Albany, California, said he was of the opinion that Nebraska is certainly on the right track by trying to encourage and pro mote the growing of industrial oil crops. The PVO officials estimated that the Nebraska castor bean acreage demand could eventual ly exceed 50,000 acres. The oil crops are also an at traction to industry. The first industrial benefits the state can gain are from the processing of the oil. While manufacture of pro ducts from the oil is a possibil ity, most of this will probably continue to be done In estab lished manufacturing localities since the manufactured pro ducts are high-cost items that can easily bear the freight rates of the raw materials. Dr. Kohler mentioned anoth er crop which may soon be in large demand. .This is diomorp hotheca oil, from the cape marigold, a brother to the or dinary ornamental marigold flower.

Since Nebraska is already in the oil processing business, it would seem that any further expansion along these lines would be valuable and prolit able. This office intends to encour age the diversification of Nebr aska farmers into the produc tion of vegetable oils. Wheat Did Not Winter Well Farmers who have wheat Four factors can be consider ed; remaining stand, vigor of surviving plants, distribution of remaining plants, plants, pros- pPCt,s f0r weed control. ' south Dakota researcners saj that if the rows are 12"' apart: One vigorous plant per inch equals 100 per cent stand. One vigorous plant per two inches equals 50 per cent stand. One vigorous plant per four inches equals 25 per cent stand. "Thinner stands can be ex pected to grow taller and mature ater than full stands. Test weight from light stands is usually lighter. If the stand is fairly uniform, even though thin, heavier-that-normal stooling compensate to a considerable degree for the thinner stand. Heavy weed growth can be a problem if the wheat field has a low percentage. " Broad leaved weeds can be controlled by spraying with 2 4-D at the pro per time. Clarence Schma deke, County Agent.
