Oregon Farmers Will Meet Most Of Output Goals PORTLAND, May 13 Oregon farmers will meet most of the war goals set for them this year despite shortages in, labor, ma chinery and supply. This was announced by the federal department of agricul ture here after a survey by the AAA covering most of the state's 60,000 farms. The survey indicated: Approximately 18,500,000 acres will be in production, less than on?-half of one per cent of the states crop land lying Idle. Goals will be met In three of the four war crops stressed in Oregon potatoes, dry peas, dry beans and flaxseed. Plantings of nearly all Import ant crops will Increase. John L. Denny of the agricul ture department said the potato goal was 44,500 acres, an Increase of 16 per cent over last year, but actual plantings will reach 48,100 acres. Almost no dry peas were planted last year. The goal is 29, 000 acres this year. Plantings are expected to be from 34,500 to 44, 000 acres. Only In dry beans are plantings i short of the eoal. 5.000 acres Plantings are expected to be 3," I 500 acres, an increase of more than 1,000 acres over 1942. Bright spots included: Hogs. 15 per cent increase for a total of 80,000 litters; chickens for meat, 19,000,000 pounds, up 15 per cent; turkeys, 36,000,000 pounds, up 15 percent; eggs, 41,000000 dozen, up 3 per cent; cattle and calves slaughtered, 422,000 head, up 14 per cent. Denny said 51,000 acres of vege tables would go to canners and an additional 22,500 acres would go to fresh Vegetable markets. Pasture conditions, feed sup plies and other factors will deter mine whether the 1,500,590,000 pound milk goal is met, but Den ny said there are 20,000 more dairy animals In the . state this year.
