CAP) The I!-'!! agricultural conservation program approved at Washington differs only hi detail with the 1938 plan, N. C. Donaldson, state AAA executive at Oregon State college, reveals. Changes consisted chiefly of modifications mude necessary be cause of shifting crop conditions and experience gained from this yoar's operation. "Definite announcement regard ing payments on wheat mates that the soil conservation payment will be 17 cents a bushel as compared with 12 cents last year," Donald son explained. "In addition there will bo avail able to wheat growers who cooper ate with the program a price ad justment payment from 10 to 12 cents a bushel, the exact amount to be determined early In February, "Wheat acreage allotments had been announced previously and have been sent to individual farm ers. The total soil depleting acre age allotment for 19:19 will be small er than 193.8 because of the smaller wheat acreage. "Payment under the potato allot ments will be 3 cents per bushel which is a reduction of six-tenths of a cent from the 1938 payment. Another provision of interest to the Oregon growers Is the fact that acreage planted to oats, barley, rye or flax as nurse crops for legumes or perennial grasses will not be classified us soil depletion If the nurse crops are cut for buy and if a ! good stand of grass or legumes is obtained." R. M.
