Teutach, assistant county agent leader, reported in discuss ing "Land Use Problems and Prog ress at the Salem chamber of commerce luncheon Monday. Most of the changes have related to soil conservation and have in volved sowing to perennial grasses or perennial and biennial legumes, or the use of lime or treble phos phate. The program haa centered principally in the hill sections. The committee's recommendations called for diversion of 24,009 acres to this type of soil-conserving use. Outlining the land use problem for the entire state. Teutsch pointed out that 50 per cent of Oregon's accountable income is derived from the soil through ag riculture or lumbering and that most of the remainder consists of services rendered because of tne existence cf these industries. Ag riculture alone accounts for an income which has risen as high as $130,000,000. Land use study started in the early '20s but was limited at first to production problems, the speak er explained. Thus 200,009 acres in the Willamette valley formerly devoted to grain were diverted to the small seed industry which has developed a $6, $00,000 anneal income. Oregon now produces 99 per cent of the nation's v e t e h seed and nearly that percentage of several other varieties.
