Berry urowers Wool Buying Aid Will be Offered By AAA Groups County AAA committees have just beenjiotltted by the state of lice o new responsibilities un der the Commodity Credit corpo ration's 1944 wool purchase pro gram. These committees will help carry out new procedure set up hv the CCC this year to help in- cni-B amvipTR a full return on thi.li 1844 marketings, says N. C. Donaldson, executive assistant in the state AAA offfice. - Five different plans by which growers may market their wool this year have been arranged. The grower may consign directly to a primary handler, which is one who has a contract with the CC. He may join with others in forming a pool to consign to pri mary handlers. He may sell eith er directly or on consignment through a secondary handler, which is a country merchant or assembler without contract with the CCC who handles lots ot 3000 pounds or less for resale to the CCC. A grower may also sell di rectly to a mill if' one is located within 50 miles of where the wool is produced. Tht countv AAA committees will be concerned mostly with ali5 throueh secondar-v handlers. These handlcis ere required to reriifv to the committees the nrlns thev have naid growers. These figures will then be turned nvpr to the CCC before payment is made to the handlers. Rules now 'provide' that the handlers will receive only a specified mar irin ahove the Drlce paid the growers. Secondary handlers who do not certify in writing the price naid Droducers for wool will suf fer a deduction when the wool is sold to the CCC. Plant Corn in June For Fast Growth By GEORGE QUINT (AP Features) Sn vou're Goinn to raise corn Then grow some healthy, tender ears instead of scrawny stalks that can be used for Hallowe'en decoration and little else. An ancient legend says June- planted corn Is the sweetest. Whether or not that is so is a question, but there is little doubt that corn sown In June grows faster than any other and pro duces unusually good crops, for uncertain weather is over and the ground is mellow and cosily workable, ran the soil deeply und pulver ize' IV finely. Spade in plenty of fnrtlliznr or comulcte plant food. Corn is an avid feeder and rapid ni-nwfh will vleld biggest and piirlipst' ears. Use one quart of seed for 200 hills, two and one-half feet apart. ni hi-ttor.filled ears, plant in instead of rows. The rea- son: Pollen will get the freest possible distribution no matter which way the wind blows, pollen will be blown throughout the patch. Every silk must havo pol len to produce a kernel.

June 3 (AP) Protest of Oregon straw berry growers that a recently-set OPA celling price of $1.61 a crate is unfairly low, voiced Thursday when some 50 producers met with opa nrlfiR sDecialists. brought as surance from agency officials that the complaint would be for warded to Washington, u. -., along with a recommendation for nrnmnt corrective action, if the growers would provide the dis- 111CI UrA Willi .bwuiivi back their stand. a a result, according to Earl Tain f)PA Drlce executive, a ber- rymen's committee was named to round up me requiieu miui"" tion and report within 24 hours. firnwers at the Thursday ses- inn said that the celling, effec tive in Oregon and Washington, compares unfavorably with a much higher price 10 piuuutcn of California and noise ana uim there is too much spread between tho nrlce allowed producers ana the retail figure, which is 40 cents higher .per crate.

WORKER'S DRAFT STATUS Recent changes made in selec tive service policy of draft defer ments do not materially alter the status of farm workers. Persons engaged in agriculture still are governed by the Tydlngs amend ment, with final decision up to the registrant's local board. The Tydlngs amendment calls for de ferment of all farm workers who: (II are necessary to agricul ture; (2) 'are regularly engaged in agriculture; (3) ara doing es sential farm work; and 4) cannot be replaced. MACHINERY FOR WAR VETS Countv farm machinery ration ing committees have been asked by the War Food administration to give preference to returning war veterans on rationed farm Implements. The preference will he conditional, says WFA, In that the machinery .allotted veterans is required to contribute as much to the war lood program as n would If sold to another appli cant. Officials have estimated that from 90,000 to 100,000 dis charged veterans originally came from farms, and many of them have returned lo farming. I SLAUGHTER RULES OFF I WFA anniumn's that slaughter permits ate no longer required fur the hum slaughter of any type of animal. This docs not apply to OPA regulations, how ever. Ol'A has also announced that no points will lo required for wholesale cuts of beef of cutter and rannrr grades nor for stag and block bulls. This change ap plies only to the four grades mentioned ahove. mrt tho Dpfense SuDPlies corpo ration simultaneously announced a compensating increase in the flour subsidy paid to miners. Tho tubsidy was increased six UNRRA officials "want to buy the cheapest wool and manufac ture it Into textiles, to produce the cheapest type of clothing, and to give It to these folks." Ho urged also that unkka draw from stockpiles of Ameri- can-grown wools, rather than thei reserves of foreign wools held in this country. Rep. Barrett (R-Wyo) also sug gested that the relief agency be required to use only American wool. Vi Sc im THE OUTLOOK Just a parting glance at what the immediate future promises.. Remember back in the early 30's when we kept looking around the proverbial "corner for prosperity? It was always "just around the corner". It took a war to bring the sham "prosperity" we now have. And we have passed a lot of corners. Well the feed situation and general conditions for poultry, turkeys and stock shows a little lioht around the corner, but we don't know how far away ' the corner is. Harvest of lf)44 wheat will be gin soon, and forecasts indicate close to a billion bushels; a bumper crop. No indications that the freeze order on corn will hp li fieri, since Drocessing plants still can't get enough for tun time operation, dui indica tions point to another bumper crop of corn, as moisture con ditions at planting time are very favorable. Oats situation very tight, but new crop of California barley now coming on the market. Mill feeds still unobtainable, and no prospect of corn on the Coast until next tan. The Commercial Review says "With pressure to sell livestock the situation may be far bright er In the fall than pictured a month ago. Liquidation of farm animals very severe, indicating government liquidation prop-am is succeeding beyond ex pectations. In order to support egg prices, W. F. A. will convert as many eggs as necessary into hog feed. These eegs will cost the govern ment $iuoo. a ton, wmcn win make somebody some pretty high priced feed; The huge egg surplus is Diamea on tne larm crs. Prof. Cosby says we shouldn feel resentful in war time, REMEMBER: You can pay more, but you. can't buy better f?ed. I Public Urged to Fight Excess Berry Prices SEATTLE, June 3 (AP) The OPA office here today called on housewives to fight a black mar ket in strawberries. The celling for locally grown strawberries In the 19 western and central Wasn- ington counties is 23 cents per pint box. but almost none are to bo had because of the late sea son and tho processors' demands. The result, the OPA said, was that the few available arc sold In flagrant violation of the regu lations, at 45 to 50 cents apint. "If a housewife can find straw berries, she should know that 23 cents is the top legal price. If she is charged more than that, she should report at once, with a re ceipt, to the price panel of her local OPA board," the announce ment concluded.
