GRANGES 'Unclassified1 Grade Takes Place of Culls in Ten Farm Products. fiAI.EM, June 22 (AP) The null I) rand wan eliminated and the grade of "unclusslfiitd" entablihed for 10 different fruits and vege tables in addition to (lie various lie rr leu ait a result of hearings held recently over the state. Frank MeKennon, chief of the plant divi sion of the departimmt of agricul ture, nnnounced here. The changes In standardization of commodities were made at the reuetit of growers and in conform ity with the state law, McKennnn aid. The removal of the "cull stig ma" on some of the commodities result, growers have declared, in more rapid and advantageous marketing of their produce. .Since the berry grades were an nounced the new term for produce not in the fancy or number 1 class will be applied to pears, cherries, prunes, grapes, tomatoes, hunch beots, cabbage :e:! a;,d .spinach. No change has been made or anticipated In the grades and stan dards for potatoes and onions, Mc Kennnn declared, since thwte two commodities are covered by spe cial laws which provide for com pulsory inspection on lots of one ton or over. The special standards applying to them were declared satisfactory to growers. Handicap Remved The federal unclassified grade has been adopted, Mc.Kennon said, "because some of our shipping point dealers liaVP found them selves handicapped In their com petition In eastern markets by in ability to brand certain products other than culls. Neighboring states recognize this grade, and Oregon - growers are penalized by inability to compete." Open packs have also been es tablished in many commodllle which will not require a grarfe mark, the agriculturist coutlnui'd. "It is anticipated (hut lu a general way a line between the commenii'il operator and small grower or gar dener who grows -only for loeal consumption can be drawn in this manner. All packs, open or clos ed, number 1 ' unclassified, must comply with the minimum reu,ulro ineuls of the grade." Freezing affords one or the sim plest methods ol preserving foods, villi with the rapid expansion of rold storage facilities available' to the public, much interest has de veloped in methods of processing berries, vegetables a:nl fruits tor this purpose.

Wilson, wool expert oL the Uni versity of California, to co-operate in abandoning branding to produce paint-free wool in large enough quantities to command a pre mium. Paint brands on wool constitute one of the most serious problems confronting mauufacturerers of wool textiles. Professor Wilson, points out. No branding fluid, used us a paint substitute, will scour out In the ordinary pro cesses. Professor Wilson believes manu facturers would pay a premium if they could get uubranded fleeces.
