KecetiL rulliiKH on soil building
practices and uses to which divert

widened the possible scope of the

the use made of the soil between
tlje frees, has brought hundreds

COHVALLIH. Ore., June 1.
(AP) The schedule of rales for
class 1 payments under the 19IJ6
agricultural conservation program
showed today Oregon county fig
ures In general are above the previously-announced
Cnl ted Stales
average of $10 un acre.
The Oregon schedule of pay
ments for diverting u ceiialn per
centage of land from soll-depletlug
to soil conserving uses was an
nounced by K. L. Italian!, vice
director of Hit! extension at Ore
gon Statu college.
Mallard said the rates are sub
ject to adjustment because of In
clusion of summer fallow and
cluiu cultivated orchards as soil
depleting use of land. He also said
ihe rate of Individual farms might
vary considerably from (he aver
age county rate, since the relative
productivity of each farm will dc
leriniue payments.
Mallard said if a county's sotl-de-pletlug
biiHB totalH 2t)i-,uim acres,
and ir 25 per cent of this, or 50,
tuny acres, represents Hummer fal
low (including clean cultlvaled or
t'liurds). ,Ji county's average rnlo
would be roduced 1!5 pir cent.
The schedule made public loday
is separule from tho recently an
nounced soil-hulldliiK (class 2) pay
inonls. The class I rales were
worked out by Hie AAA on the ba
sis of yields of selected soll-dit-plellug
crops In each couuly lu the
