PhoM 3-7C32 Brown is leader of the United Kingdom Hop Growing Productiv ity team whose five members are in Salem this week studying the hop situation here. Others in the team are Captain James Day, Samuel R. Allsopp, J. Michael Brewin and C. J. Gray. The hop marketing board, cf which Allsop is chairman, unlike our hop control board, is made up entirely of growers No brewers or dealers are permitted on the board, Brown stated It has b en very successful In keeping the marketing of hops "orderly" and stabilizing the market. Also, he added, it has helped greatly in maintaining very satisfactory ind amicable agreements with the brewers. Production Cheaper . Production of hops seemed to the Englishmen to be less costly per pound here than in England. .More hand labor is employed there, they believe, but this is "just a preliminary statement," they said, "and we have not yet made anything but a very slight survey." . As a whole, acreage is much smaller in England, ranging from 5 to 15 acres in a unit, Brown sta ted' The fields are frequently not so level as here and there is great er variety in quality of soil, usual ly a heavier clay than used for hops here. No irrigation is used. Much heavier fertilization pro grams are used in English hop "gardens," both with commercial fertilizers and natural manures, Brown said. More Vines Fer Hill In contrast to our four tor six vines per hill, in England from 8 tp 10 are planted. Hills grow from 2Vt to 4 feet apart in the rows. Coconut fiber string is used for the four strings leading up from each hill. These are fastened to a metal peg and hung on hooks from the wire work. Brown went on, adding in an aside, "here you call wirework 'trellis . Sweet chestnut trees are grown for hop posts. It takes from 20 to 25 years for these trees to make sufficient growth for the poles, which are slighter than those used in this country. " While some experimenting is going -on with mechanical pick ers, America had advanced much more rapidly in this line, Brown said. Hop pickers come out from London and other cities and camp in the "huts" on the farms. In the Britishers opinion, hops picked by the machines here are just as clean as those handpicked in Eng land. Hand-picked hops from this country, however, were not always Former Legion Chieftain Dies PORTLAND, July 20 -()- John Albert Beckwith, 65, former Ore gon commander of the American Legion, died here-today. He was a retired naval reserve captain. The widow and three daughters survive. rpTinulafor End of Strike A ,1 TT '"" H Agreed Udo n PORTLAND, July 2H?VA formula for ending the 66-day-old CIO ' International Woodworkers strike against the Weyerhaeuser timber company was agreed upon here today. C The agreement provides for a 5 cent hourly wage increase, three paid holidays a year and s com- panjr-financed medical and welfare lund. Tne membership will vote on the proposal Sunday and the ballots will be counted Monday. About 9,000 workmen are af fected.

Time to Spray Codling Moth, Growers Told r This is the time for second cover spray for codling moth control, apple pear growers in the Willam ette valley are being advised by B. G. Thompson, Oregon State col lege entomologist. The spray should should be on by July 25, Thompson added. Three pounds lead arsenate ; in 100 gallons of water is the recom mended spray for the average or chard. In orchards where codling moth is not a serious problem, two pounds lead arsenate to 100 gal lons of water may be used. Three pounds calcium arsenate In 100 gallons of water is only i so clean as those irom ,ngiana, they sad. Average yieia in juigiana is somewhat better than in Oregon but not so heavy as in Yakima, Brown stated. Disease Troublesome - For some reason, not yet learn ed, he added, Oregon growers seem tb have more trouble with disease! than is customary in Eng land. II might, he thought, have something to do with the weather. "We j have a tidy- bit of ; rain there, 1oo," he said, "but it Is more evenly distributed." Contrary to the method of bal-; ing here in rectangular bales, there (cylindrical "pockets" are used. These "pockets," as the Eng lishmen called their bales, have always been round since the day when pressing hops was done by men jumping on the hops in the baling 'cloths. Froty Salem the men go to Yak. ima and British Columbia. They return here for a few days dur ing the harvest season.
