Flood Control
Gets Priority
Farm Group Hits
WSB Wage Order
Flood control projects were giv
en number one priority for Lane
County conservation practices by
the Agricultural nesources on
ervation Program committee, at
a meeting in the PMA offices in
the Public Market Bldg. this week.
The ARCP is composed of offi
cials of various agencies dealing
with conservation problems, in
cluding the county extension of
fices, the Production Marketing
Administration, soil conservation
districts, the forest service, and
other groups. Meeting with the
ARCP were PMA community
chairmen and supervisors from
various parts of the county.
Drainage projects were given
second priority and erosion con
trol projects, number 3 priority.
Priorities for other conservation
practices were: 4, weed control;
g, irrigation; 6, range manage
ment; 7, forestry management; 8,
soil depletion.
The group decided to request an
additional PMA practice for 1953:
leveling "spoil" banks along
ditches to put more land in culti
vation and to eliminate weed beds.
The same group of persons also
met as the Lane County Agricul
tural Mobilization Committee and
took exception to the amount of
wage increases for farm work al
lowed by the Wage Stabilization
Board. They said the 10 per cent
Increase allowed above 1950 base
wages isn't enough to attract suf
ficient farm help. The hourly
base wage li 87 cents for most
farm work.

Cherry Growers
Set Hearing.
Fruit Fly Control
Area Under Study
Arguments for and against es
tablishing Lane County as a "con
trol area" for cherry fruit flies
will be heard Tuesday, at 1:30
p.m., in the county courthouse..
The hearing follows a petition
for such a control area by a fruit
fly control committee of the Lane
Horticultural Society headed by
Lon Hawkins, of Beacon Drive.
; The fruit flies are a serious
threat to commercial cherry grow
lers since only a few infested cher
ries are enough to prevent mar
keting of a whole orchard's crop,
Hawkins explained.
If Lane County is ordered a
control area by the State Depart
ment of Agriculture, all cherry
trees would be required by law
to be sprayed or dusted for the
cherry fruit fly.
Presently, law requires any tree
to be sprayed once it is proved to
be infested. But, growers point
out, that's usually too late to pre
vent the fruit flies from spread
ing to other cherry trees.
At a recent meeting of the Lane
Horticultural Society, local grow
ers were told that orchardmen in
the Salem area have experienced
success in controlling the fruit fly
pest through establishing a con
trol area.

Poor Wiring
Causes Fire
Defective wiring on a water
heater Wednesday night was
blamed for an estimated $2000
fire loss at the Don Huber home,
2528 Potter St.
Eugene firemen answered the
alarm at 11:14 p.m., and one
truck crew was in action 35
minutes at the fire scene. Another
crew stayed an hour and 12 min
utes. Starting around the water heat
er in the Huber garage, the fire
extended through the garage to
the attic of the adjoining house.
The loss was believed to have
been covered by insurance.

NEW YORK Things a
man learns from reading his
mail:
There is an old popular belief
that major wars break out about
every 22 years the foundation
for the study of cycles, after
checking wars from 559 B.C.,
says there's something to it
the wars also seem to come
along about the same time as
certain big solar disturbances
. . . so to end wars all you gotta
do is cure the sun of its spot?
. . . boy, hand me that celestial
ointment!
Add leap year news: It is il
legal to marry your husband's
grandfather in Georgia . . . but
if you want to wed your first
cousin in West Virginia it's okay
if he's over 50 years old . . .
you have to wait until you're a
dowdy old maid of 16 before
you can go to the altar in the
hills of Kentucky .
A name in the news recently
was Mr. Alan Garfinkel, who
hand ties knots sealing 50,000
pieces of bologna. 500 an hour.
Greenwich Village today is a
tourist lure and a refuge for
starry-eyed young actresses, ar
tists and Wall Street stenog
raphers ... but in 1822 it was
so remote from downtown Man

there to escape a yellow fever
epidemic . . . did you ever hear
of the noble lady who kept a
corpse in her coach? : : : she
was Mademoiselle De Coigny, an
18th century French intellectual
. . . why the corpse? She was
studying anatomy, and liked to
keep a subject handy. . .

when you sneak out for a morn
ing cup of coffee? . . . well, a
poll of 1160 companies in 45
states showed that 78 per cent
have now authorized "coffee
breaks" of their own accord . . .
after finding that 800 employes
were spending 15 minutes a day
each grabbing snacks, the Mu
tual Life Insurance Company in
stalled eight mobile cars that
give "breakfast-at-your-desk"
service to its 2000 employes . . .
it figured this saved $130,000 in
labor costs.
Did you know that 2000 aliens
are now serving in the U. S.
army? . . . that it is more im
portant for you to be able to
read well within arm's length
than it is to nave "iwemy
twenty" vision, which only
means the ability to read an
eye-sight card at 20 feet? . . .
that the first automobile ever
stolen in America was snitched
in St. Louis in 1905? . . . that
cars are aging just like people
because in 1950 half the autor.
on the road were ten years. And
by 1960 there will be some 52
million. . .
The traffic prospect this
raises is going to drive an awful
lot of people back to the pogo
stick.
