One other announcement Is neces!-.
fjary before tho campaign of admlnlsr
trators to obtain agreements from
farmers to reduce their acreage for
harvest next year will be In ljull
swing.
Wallace, determined to go ahead
with his plans without any further
wait for an International wheat ncro
ago reduction agreement, said that
within 10 days he will announce
what percentage of reduction farm
ers, will be required to agree to take
in order to qualify for cash payments.
His announcement came after the
('edition of the London wheat confer
ence to recess until August 21, with
out having reached agreement.
No More Than 20
Tho maximum reduction which
Wallace will rcqulro will be 20 per
cent, with prospects that because of
this year's light production of the
grain that he may select a smaller
figure.
Each county producing wheat has
been given an allotment representing
a shuro in the estimated human
domestic consumption of tho grain
for the coming year.
In some countries the allotments
are smivll nnd reduction campaigns
may not bo undertaken there speci
fically. '
If farmers thore and in othor coun
ties growing small quantities of wheat
wish to Join In the plan, however, I
they will be permitted to form con
trol associations with a larger area
than a single county.
The allotment prlnclplo works In
this way:
Wallaco estimated that the nation s
needs for wheat us food during the
coming year aggregated 460,100,5118
bushels, which Is 54 per cent of the
averago annual production for the
five years ending June 30, 1032.
Now tho 30 cents a bushol pro

sumption, as wheut which goes Into

paid on wheat products exported.
axes collected on wheat at mills
where It Is ground which Is used for
charitable purposes also will be re
funded.
Wallaco split up the figure repre
senting the nations wheat needs,, or
tho "national allotment." into state
and county allotments on the basis
of the production of each in the last
five years.
Tho county allotments will bo spilt
into grower allotments by the county
associations consisting of fanners who
iiiHko application to come In on the
plan. Hut In the case of farmers tho
allotment will be based on produc
tlon In the lust three years.
Each applicant farmer will state
what his acreage and production of
wheat has been in the last three years
and- his willingness to Join the plan.
The applicants will meet, form an
association and elect a committee
which will compute their estimates
of production and then split up the
county allotment among them.
To I'll bl Mi Allotments
These allotments will be published
tn newspapers bo that formers can
determine If their neighbors are
making excessive claims of produc
tion in order to obtain larger allot
ments tha they are entitled to.
Tho committee will pass on com
plaints and revise allotments where
necessary.
If tho national allotment Is pro-
Jtcud directly to the ndlviduul far
mer, his allotment will bo 54 per cent
of his unuual average production of
the last three years.
After the nllofAnnts are approved
by administrators, the application
will be accepted. for'AMR contract.

In Wallowa lake has been lowered
half a foot dally, aays the Record-

The figures In the hands of Water-
master Qlenn Jacob show the maxi
mum storago last year' was 10.5 feet,
and this year It was 17.8 feet. The
gain this year was too slight to be
considered, except that tho highest
point was touched luter In Juno this
year than Inst. Farmers used water
carefully In June and this delayed the
neavy drain on tho storage.
For some days the ditches have
carried all of the natural flow plus
water enough to reduco the level six
Inches a day. Tho natural flow Is
practically the same ns last year, so
the excess is drawn wholly from the
storage. '
Tho peak of tho Irrigation season

past, and less water will bo used for

These and other points are cov
