Not Too Late
For Planting
Gardens Now
Planting in the home garden
to insure harvest of late vegeta
bles can still take place during
early July. Transplants of late
celery, late cabbage, Brusse
Sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower
can now be made with good pros
pects of maturing these crops
daring the fall months.
Seedings of lettuce, carrots, late
sweet corn (use early maturing
varieties), beets and late beans
(pole or bush types) can be made
With good results.
Transplants will respond to use
of booster solutions made by us
ing one ounce of 16-20 or 11-48
ammo-phos to one gallon of wa
ter. From one-half to a pint of
the solution is poured around the
transplant after planting.
When using fertilizers in addi
tion to booster solutions, 1 to IVi
pounds of the average garden
fertilizer is used to 1X) lineal feet
of row.
Irrigation can be used to ad
vantage in late seedings of the
above crops. Most vegetables
have a high water content and
need a consistent , supply of soil
moisture to produce good yields
of high quality. Vegetables can
use from 3 to 4 inches of rain
fall or its equivalent in irriga
tion water per month.
The important thing in water
ing a garden is to apply a suffi
cient amount of water at each
irrigation so that the soil about
the root system is well suppnea
with moisture.
In crops which are. developing
well this amount is from one to
three inches for each application.
Home gardeners having trouble
Setting a stand of beans in the
garden because of adverse weath
er conditions may well consider
Dlantine . bush type beans lor
early maturity. . Bush beans are
from 12 to 15 days earlier matur
ing after planting than are pole
type beans.
During the past few years,
much improvement - has been
made with bush type beans, with
pods stringless, crisp and well
' flavored, experienced gardeners
are reporting.

4Northwest
Congressmen
In Tax Battle
WASHINGTON l Four; Paci
fic Northwest congressmen! have
been in the middle of the contro
versy over extension of the excess
profits tax. Each sides with Pres
ident Eisenhower, who has. asked
the tax be extended for the rest
of this year.
Rep. Holmes (R-Wash) was the
first to become embroiled, incur
ring the displeasure of Chairman
Reed (R-NY) of the House Ways
and Means committee. Holmes, a
committee member, was the first
Republican to announce a willing
ness to sign a petition to force a
committee vote on the extension
bill so violently opposed by the .
chairman i
When the battle moved to the
House Rules commjftee, it en
veloped Rep. Ellsworth (R-Ore).
He also went to bat for the Presi
dent's plea and voted to send the
tax extension proposal to the
House floor without committee ac
tion. .
Rep. Norblad (R-Ore) and
Westland R-Wash -got into the
fight by introducing legislation. The
Oregon congressman introduced the
first bill to extend the excess prof
its tax for six months in line with
Eisenhower's request, While
Westland took the role of peace
maker, proposing a two per cent
six months increase in the sur
tax on all corporations in place of
the excess profits levy.

Bankruptcies
Show Increase
PORTLAND OB Bankruptcies
filed in Oregon in the first half of
this year totaled 24 per cent more
than for the same period of 1952,
Estes Snedecor, federal bank
ruptcy referee, reported Wednes
day.
He said the national increase was
only 16 per cent over the first six
months of 1952. '
According to Snedecor, at least
75 per cent of the Oregon bank
ruptcy filings are by salary or
wage earners. He said, most of
these result from garnishment or
fear of garnishment.
"Recently in Oregon, we have
had at least a dozen bankrupts

On '54 Wheat
By OVEDA MARTIN
Washington m secretary
of Agriculture Benson invoked mar
keting quotas on the 1954 wheat
crop Wednesday, but he delayed
announcing how much of a re
duction in production will be sought
to hold, the surplus down.
' the quotas, under which, farm
ers would be told how much they
could market, must be approved by
at least two-thirds of the affected
growers votuig in a referendum
to be held later. The last time such
controls were approved was for the
1942 crop. They were suspended,
however, before marketing time:
Benson said the prospective
wheat supply is the largest of
record and 48 per cent above nor
maL Law requires him to invoke
quotas when the supply threatens
to - exceed normal by more than
20 per cent.
The government already has
about one billicn dollars invested in
surplus wheat. Declining export
markets have contributed to the
oversupply.
It now appears probable that sim
ilar controls may be needed next
year for major types of tobacco,
cotton, peanuts and sugar cane to
hold production in line with mar
ket needs.
Benson. told a news conference
that there was a "not very great
chance that a Southwestern drought
could spread to presently unaffect
ed wheat areas and reduce the
size of (his year's crop to a point
where quotas could be withdrawn.
Should this happen, the Depart
ment probably would depend on
the less restrictive acreage plant
ing allotments in an effort to pre
vent overproduction next year,
Overplanting of allotments would
result only in loss f price support
aid. but sales of wheat in excess
of ; a quota would be subject to a
heavy penalty tax as well as loss
of price support. Allotments do
not require grower approval.
The uncertainty as to the size
of 1954 quotas and the date of the
referendum was caused by the fact
that legislation is pending in Con
gress to make reductions in pro
duction less severe than those re
quired by existing law.
Unless Congress acts by July 15,
Benson will be required to impose
controls cutting production 30 per
cent from this year. The House
ha passed a bill to require only
a ; 15 per cent reduction.
