Wool Sales Swing Back To Pre-War Some 450,000 pounds of North west wools sold at Portland this past ' week at the highest prices since the 1917-19 era at the re gion's first competitive bid wool sale since 1942. Buyers included both local and eastern mills and wool merchants. They bid aggressively for the fine and half blood wools, but, as the sale sponsors had expected, showed little interest in coarser grades, Highest price was 61 cents a pound paid by Oregon Worsted. Portland, for 15.000 pounds of Washington ewe half blood wool. Second highest price of 60 cents was paid by the same buyer for a 2369-pound clip. Pacific Wool growers sold 126, 200 at prices ranging from id to 56 cents. Wool men viewed the sale as indicating return of normal trade competition to the wool business, after years of low prices during which the government was sole buyer. Most dealers are of the opinion that mills will take practically all of the 1948 fine and medium wools, while the Commodity Credit corp oration will get most of the coarser grades under its price support pro gram. MILK PRODUCTION LAGS Milk production still lags be hind last year, according to this week's Dairy Review from the United States department of agri culture. The April flow was 4 per cent below that of 1947. However, with the number of milk cowa on farms down sub stantially, production per cow during April was very close to last year's record high level.

AT Bering Optical DIGNIFIED CREDIT 13 Cemrt rbene C5M Pi-bdf Fbtind'' Viruses Are Spread by Air For the first time, it haa been proved that an animal virus can be spread by air. Two University of California College of Agriculture veterinar ians and a former co-worker made the discovery. They isolated pneumoencepha litis virus of poultry, known bet ter as Newcastle disease, from air taken from poultry houses at Rio Linda and Atascadero where birds had the disease. The con taminated air was drawn through a special fluid when samples were taken. When this liquid was injected into chick embryos and later into live chicks, they died. The men also placed healthy birds inside the contaminated house at Rio Linda so that the only source of infection would be the air. and the birds came down with the disease within six days. The discovery that virus dis eases imay be transmitted by the airborne route has meaning for both public health and military authorities. It underscores the difficulties of curbing epidemics of virus diseases such as influ enza. The scientists who made the discovery are Drg. K. B. DeOme and R. A. Bankoski, veterinarians, and P. D. DeLay, who recently resigned from the Univerity of California faculty. Grass Silage Bulletin Now Available Again A cubic foot of grass silage weighs at least nine times as much as a cubic foot of loose hay and contains about three times as much food value. This statement is made by M. G. Huber, extension agricultural engineer, Roger W. Morse, ex tension dairyman, and E. R. Jack man, extension specialist in farm crops, in an illustrated bulletin which has recently been revised. The bulletin, "Making and Feed ing Grass and Legume Silage in Western Oregon," was first pub lished In 1946. Due to the popu larity of grass silage in western Oregon, the publication has now been revised and may be had by writing to Oregon State college extension division. -'4 -r v ..
