Information on more than
7,000 firm s Is contained In the
1966 Directory of Oregon Man­
ufacturers, Just Issued by the
Division of Planning and De­
velopment, Oregon Department

M arket Area No. l.a s o fN o v . 1.
Area No. 1 Includes all of O re ­
gon, except C u rry , Harney and
Malheur counties.
The o rd er, signed Oct. 21 by
Hearings O fficer K. W. Sawyer,
sets the minimum p rice for
class I m ilk at $5.90 per hun­
dredweight f.o.b. the handler’ s
plant and class 2 at $4.10 per
hundredweight f.o.b., the hand­
le r ’ s plant.
Sawyer, however, has In­
creased the butterfal differen­
tial to 8.4$ per point of v a ria ­
tion above or below the 3.5%
base. The butterfat differential
on class 1 m ilk In C u rry Coun­
ty has been 7.3$ per point of
variation and on class 2, 6$
per point of variation.
In M arket Area No. 1, the
variation on loth classes Is
7.3$ per point of variation above
o r below the 3.5% base.
The minimum prices to pro­
ducers on the 3.5% base w ill
make little difference In p r i­
ces received by producers In
C u rry County. The handler he re
has been paying higher prices
than the minimums that had
been In effect In this area.
The new prices followed rec­
ommendations made at the
hearing held at Gold Beach Sept.
27 by the department to con­
sider an adjustment In minimum
prices.
Minimum prices on 3.5% m ilk
have been $5.40 per hundred­
weight for class 1 and $2.90
per hundredweight for class 2

is the firs t fo r this area since
