Fruit Plapting Is
Circulars Theme
Varieties, Climate, Soils
Among Itms Given
Consideration
Fruit planting iroblems are dis
cussed in a new Circular of Infor

agricultural experiment station,
and now available at the county
agent's office in a'em, announces
Robert E. ReiderUassistant county

W. S. Brown, JicrticulturlBt at
the state collegedlscusses In this
bulletin many of Abe problems in
cident to fruit planting, such as
varieties, climatK soils and pol
lination. u
Climatic conditions are one of
the most important factors to con
sider when contemplating setting
out fruit varietis. Oregon Is di
vided "roughly lniro nine different
climatic sections each one vary
ing somewhat frfm the others in
Its requirementsand In the vari
eties that will sceed best.
consiaer ous veu .
Soils and expftiure should be
carefully chosen.North and east
ern exposures warm up slowest in
the spring, and :mre least apt to
suffer, from dan; in from late
spring frosts, ithile south and
west exposures gf?c somewhat bet
ter color. k '
Air drainage lis an Important
factor to consider when planting.
There should be-Jenough slope to
the land to allowhcold air to drain
off readily duifag winter and
spring. $
Soil types showd be understood
and classified bttoie fruit varie
ties are set out. Generally speak
ing, stone fruit do better upon
rather sandy or city 8 oils that are
not too heavy.
Time of Planting
Time of plantig nursery stock
will depend upon variety, soil and
climatic condlti&3. In the Wil
lamette valley fnost fruits .and
nuts can safely be planted any
time during lat fall, winter or
early spring, whenever the plants
are completely ormant, and the
soil is in good working condition.
Growers whoSare expecting to
plant fruit of uny kind should
avail themselveof this valuable
source of information snd nse it
for reference b? fore planting

Rural Medical
Plans Mapped
Low Income Farm Family
Offered Service by
FSA Loan Fund
Plans of the farm security id-
ministration for medical care of
low-Income farmers in Oregon,
iaano ana wasnington, now be
ing worked out with state and
county medical societies, are not
to be confused with "socialized'
state" medicine, but are based
on simple propayment of medical,
dental and hospital services with
the aid of FSA loans, Walter A.
Duffy, regional director, Port
land, announced. '
"Good health Is even more
necessary to economic rehabili
tation than approved farm and
home plans for the 12,000 finan
cially handicapped farm families
who have been assisted vy reha
bilitation loans for necessary op
erating goods and cooperative fa
cilities in this region," DuZif
said. "Instead of allowing farm
families unable to secure ade
quate commercial credit to drift
toward relief rolls, FSA seeks
to get them back on their feet
so they can become Independent,
self-sustaining units In the social
and economic life m the coai.
munity."
Provisions Explained
rmffy explained that agree
ments being reached with medi
cal societies provide:
1. Loans to FSA borrowers
providing funds in advance for
one year of medical, dental and
hospital services for that family
in event the family does not
have the cash on band.
2. That the amount the bor
rower is to spend for medical
care for a given- period will be
on an agreed schedule oased on
the ability of the family to pay.
S. That funds set aside for
compensation of doctors shall be
paid at the beginning of the op
erating period, placed in the
hands of a trustee and put in a
common fund with local physl
cians being paid as they submit
their statements for services at
the first of every month.
4. That every family have free
choice of physician.
Due to Start Soon
"Preliminary negotiations and
agreement on the general prin
ciples of the plan have been
completed with the officers of
the Oregon and. Washington State
Medical Societies. The medical
care program should get under
way early in the new year," said
Duffy. "Several services, based
on negotiations with county med
ical societies have been in op
eration in Idaho during the past
year. Negotiations with the Ida
ho State Medical Society are ex
pected, to get under way shortly.'
Duffy said the program is in
no way subsidization of medicine
as loans are made only to FSA
farm families not having suit!
cient cash available and repay
ment in full of each loan is ex
pected.
