Wheat Growth Retarded WALLOWA, Ore. (Speclal)-Some-: wnau Detter growing weather has been experienced In this community, during much of the past week. Dur ing the several weeks -previous it had remained cold the greater part of the time and crops and gardens had made slow growth, . Many farmers.. In commenting on their, winter wheat crops, state that 'in early spring the stand In most fields appeared to be very good and gave excellent pros pects of at least a normal crop. How ever, with such a long spell of weather In which the grain did not appear to make much of a growth, the crop lit practically ail farms here has been held back and damaged, to such on extent that but few are look ing forward to more than half of a normal yield at harvest time. In many of the fields the wheat Is still quite small and follow In color. Weeds have been worse in choking down the gralncrops on much ot the land this . season than ever before, while the grain was making a very slow growth many of the weeds made an excellent growth and manv of the wheat .fields at' this time . iescinblej weed patches rather than grain tirbps. Some of the farmers In the hill ateas expect to cut a considerable acreage of the worst weedy-grain for' hay and :lh some -instances cutting will 'start during, the next week or two In order to get the bulk of 'the weeds before they arc top ripe and ma nuring -seed.

A. Lloyd, federal supervisor of agricultural extension work In the 11 western states, In a letter to F. E. Balmer, Washington extension director. High quality pro duction and standardized grades are ! possible in the east and if accomp 1 llshed during a period of low prices, j the distance and freight handicaps of the west will be made even mora I apparent when good times return, declares Mr. Lloyd. An editorial In the April issue of the Michigan Parmer was cited to show the present favorable position of the west. "In recent years M4chi pan producers have been losing their markets to western business farm ers. The low grade, unattractive, poorly prepared products of the east ern farm have failed to hold their own with the more carefully grown standardized products of the west. Our egg. 'fruit, potato, bean and veg etable trade has slipped away to an extent little dreamed of two decades ago. Can we come back? Can we again win the hearts .of, the con sumers at our door? That will not be an easy task. Western produc ers have captured the eastern con sumer by the merit of their prod uf is. We will regaiu tlit trade only by the same means used to get It from us. The longer we wait to recover n me more ueepiy win our competitors be Intrenched. We should begin this year to put nil tho quality In our products that we can. This will mean more care ful production and marketing. To many It may seem foolish to talk quality In times of depression, but in these times buyers are choosers and to secure their attention your product must make Its appeal." The west now has a good reputa tion for quality products, continued Mr. Lloyd. Many eastern buyers de mand western products because of tho assurance of quality. To main tain these valuable markets the farmer must follow the western ex tension service slogan, "The West Must Grow the Best." Seed Men Meet Members of tho seed trade and U.
