THE REGISTER-GUARD. EUGENE. OREGO
COMMITTEES 1
- NAMED FOR LIE
Committeemen in all the ten
communities In which Lane coun
ty la divided for the carrying out
of the federal agricultural con
servation program met during the
past week and elected commit7
teemen for the year 1038. O. S.
Fletcher, county agricultural
agent, attended all meetings and
took part In the discussion of the
conservation program for the
coming year. Mr. Fletcher Is sec
retary of the Lane County Agri
cultural Conservation association.
W. F. Marshall, assistant secretary
of the association, also assisted
the community chairmen In con
ducting the meetings and pres
enting the 1838 program, itay
mond A. Johnson, president of the
association, assisted at the Loranc
and Cottage Grove meetings.
" Those explaining the program
stated that there are limits to
what It can do. For example, il
alone cannot prevent burdensome
surpluses nor does it provide a
means of storing reserves so thai
they will not depress prices. Nor
can it fully Insure the farmer
against losses from natural cal
amities, such as drought or In
sects. .
The conservation program can,
however, help raise farm Income
by helping farmers to produce
more economically, by providing
conservation payments to farmers,
and by Improving the soil to make
It able to produce more when
needed. In addition, for some
crops it Indirectly Influences the
volume and therefore the prices
of these farm products.
Farmers who are not now co
operating in the agricultural con
servation program but wish to do
10 In 1938 may file work sheets
and sign up in the program at the
county agent's office In Eugene
beginning Monday.
i At the beginning of the meet
ings, the current farm outlook
and the agricultural situation in
past years leading to the agricul
tural conservation program were
discussed. The detailed workings
of the 1S38 program were also
explained. It was pointed out that
for each farm there will be a, soil
depleting goal and a soil building
goal. . There will be deductions
from payments if the acreage of
soil depleting crops exceeds the
soli depleting goal and there will
also be deductions if the soli
building goal Is not reached. Al
thought 1037 has been compara
tively favorable for most farmers
in the United States, with normal
weather in 1038 and 1039 grow
ing surpluses and lower prices
are in prospect for some commo
dities.

munities and the committeemen

NEW REPORT CI
A new report card for the pri
mary grades and another for the
intermediate and upper grades of
the rural schools of Lane county
has been adopted, according to L.
C. Moffitt. The adoption of the
card is optional with the teachers
but a majority have expressed a
willingness to use it
Growth in habits and attitudes
as well as growth in school sub
jects are checked. In the primary
grades under the head of growth
in habits and attitudes are the
following: "Habits of Work."
"Habits of Play," "Habits of
Thrift," "Habits of Courtesy" and
"Habits of Health," while under
the same head in the intermediate
and upper grades are: "Work
Habits -as an Individual," "Other
Characteristics as an Individual,
"Characteristics as a Member of
a Group," and "Physical Education
Health."
The purpose of the report card
is to enlist the co-operation of
parents and teachers in the growh
of the child, it is explained by
Superintendent Moffitt. It is not
a comparison of the work of one
child with another but it is, in
stead, a message to parents which
attempts to familiarize them with
the experience of the pupil In his
school life, especially in terms of
his growth as compared with his
ability to progress insofar as the
school can know.
IS
RE!
NECESSARY FOR
Developmenf and control of
water resources, held by many
progressive citizens as the key to
Oregon's future, rests upon faci
lities to gather hydrologie data,
it is declared in a report just is
sued by the state planning board,
entitled "Basic Data Needed for
Water Conservation In Oregon."
In addition to pointing out the
great value of basic data, the re
port contains definite recommen
dations for an efficient system
under which this information may
be obtained, and includes costs
and sources of funds for the
work.
Needed immediately, the report
declares, are 75 additional preci
pitation stations, 12 additional
snow survey courses, 136 addi
tional stream gauging stations,
8 additional stations, and 320
groundwater explorations and ob
servation wells. These will cost
5251,810 to install, and will entail
an annual operation cost of $71,
750. Facts and figures obtained from
these sources will be of almost
incstimatable value in mapping
out flood control projects, in
planning irrigation systems, and
even in such everyday wrrk as
planning crons, it is pointed out.
The . report, a moiar achieve
ment of the board's advisory
committee ' on water resources,
also suggests supplementary study
projects on water resources to
cost $1,057,200. These include, de
termination of water quality in
cluding sanitary surveys of
streams, silting surveys, erosion
studies, effects of forest cover on
stream flows, river utilization
surveys, irrigability and drainage
land classification, and fish con
servation studies.
Funds for the .work should
come largely from the federal
government, the. report points out,
and similar programs are suggest
ed for other states as a part of a
national program of water use
and conservation.
The report was compiled under
the direction of V. B. Stanbery,
N 1 Kovv
DlSmiifrrJ
consultant and exesutive secret
ary of the planning board. Mem
bers of the advisory committee
are G. H. Canfield, Portland,
chairman; 'J. W. Cunningham,
Carl E. Green, C. I. Grimm, Har
lan B. Holmes, R. E. Koon, M. R.
Lewis, A. M. Piper, H. E. Selby,
B. E. Stoutmeyer, and E L. Wells,
all of Portland, and C. E. Strick
lin Salem.
The report, which has been ap
proved by Governor Martin, was
submitted to him by Ormond R.
Bean, board chairman.
