Food Supplies Ample By SAM DAWSON or The Associated Press NEW YORK WWThe outlook for eating this coming winter is pretty good today. Prices of most foodstuffs are down at the farm level to about where they were hefore the start of the Korean war sent them scampering upward. Large sur pluses of many of the primary foodstuffs tend to keep them stable. The chief upward pressure on food prices al the grocery level I buuika i.uiit nit iicviuis hoc til uusis ui preparation ana aisiriDU tion. Drought or disease or tropical hurricanes have cut some crops in some sections, but shortages exist in very few commodities. Storms hurt the apple crop in the East. Rains cut into the onion crop in the Southwest and on the West Coast unseasonable hot weather took a toll of lettuce in California, But the story in general is one of plenty. And when a major crop has been cut this year by weather or go ernmc;. ' plant ing restrictions, there is usually a sizable holdover from previous years on which to fall back. Another round in coffee price cutting started this week on the Pacific Coast and spread to the East. Futures trading on the New York Coffee & Sugar Ex change shows that traders are looking for lower prices when the next crop is harvested in Brazil. In that country govern mental agencies are reported buying up the green beans in an attempt to bolster sagging prices. The turkey crop in this country is close to the record set in 1952, while wholesale prices are reported the lowest in 12 years, offering consumer something to be th-nkful for come Thanksgiv ing. Poultry prices are down and so are eggs, although chicken farmers are expecting the price to stiffen with the moulting sea son. Meat supplies are abundant this fall. Bargains are advertised every week by the butchers. All this is pleasant ft-' the con sumer. For the farmer it's some thing else again. Prices of farm products climbed steeply after the Korean war started in June of 1950. They reached a peak in early spring of 1951. Since then they have slipped back 21 per cent.

BRAND NAMIS FOUNDATION IKCOIIFO RAT I B A IWN-MOFIT tOUCATIONAL FOUNDATION 7 Wl.T .T ITItrt. NCW YORK It. N. V. Stained western barley of the 1954 crop, grading No. 5 or better, will be eligible for price support. This decision by the Dept. of Agriculture .particularly applies to areas in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho where adverse weather conditions have resulted in a considerable increased in the amount of stained barley. H. H. Myers, chairman of the Lane County Agricultural Stabili zation and Conservation Commit tee, explains that stained barley will be discounted 10 cents per bushel in addition to any other applicable discounts. Previous to the recent decision, stained barley, regardless of class or grade, was not eligible for price support. Support was limited to barley of any class grading No. 5 or better or No. 5 garlicky or better. Class III western barley with a test weight if less than 40 pounds per bushel still remains ineligible for price support. The (JSDA action, Chairman Myers points out, results from the recent rain which have caused a sizeable amount of barley in the Northwest to become stained. The decision will give farmers price support on such barley and en able them to withhold it from market when prices are below the support level. The current loan rate on 1954 barley, grade No. 2 or better (except mixed), is $1.15 per bushel, national average. In Lane County, the basic sup port rate per bushel for both farm storage and country warehouse storage loans on Classes I, II and III grading No. 2 or better is $1.26. The grade, class, grading fac tors, and all other quality factors are to bo determined in accord ance with the methods set forth in the Official Grand Standards of the United States.

IOC Farm News Notes UPPER WILLAMETTE Soil Conservation District supervisors this week met with a number of persons interested in the for mulation of plans for operation of ithe new district. With Chair man O. M. Patten presiding, the session at the Lane County agent's office was attended by Supervisors Ray Bruce, Everett Chase and W. u. Wash, and by Henry Pavelek, area conserva tionist with the Sou Conservation Service from Albany, Dr. H. A. Hagan of Cottage Grove, Fred Knox, Lane County chairman for the Willamette Basin Commis sion, Ivan Oakes, executive secre tary of the basin commission from Salem, County Extension Agent W. B. Parker, and Elmo Chase, chairman of the Willam ette Basin Commission. In addi tion to scheduling the annual meeting of the Upper Willamette district for February, the super visors, discussed suggestions for the district's work program with the visiting group. Further work on the program will be carried by the various supervisors in preparation for the next board meeting, when a complete out line of work projects will be as sembled. ALSO MEETING this week, supervisors of the West Central Lane Soil Conservation District received the resignation of board member Stephen H. Ford and recommended Paul Blazer to replace him as representative of the Crow area. Blazer s nomi nation now goes to the State Soil Conservation Committee for ap proval. At this week's meeting, a resolution also was adopted urging Governor Paul Patterson to set aside one week each year as "soil conservation week In Oregon. With Chairman Charles Liles presiding over the meeting in the soil district office in the old postoffice building, the West Central Lane district supervisors also made plans to meet during the next month with groups of farmers in the Coyote and Spen cer Creek areas, to discuss drain age project plans' with them. It was reported to the board that soil surveys on 900 acres in the past month brought the total area thus far surveyed within the district to 38,200 acres. Tree Farms Total Grows Another step was taken this week toward insuring a perman ent supply of timber for Oregon and Washington sawmills and factories with the certification of 141,956 acres of private taxpayihg forests as West Coast tree farms. Addition of the newly certified tree farms raises the total acre age now included in this perman ent private forest management program in western Oregon and Washington to 4,415,430 acres. "All this vast acreage has been brought into this program since the inception of the idea in 1941." said Roy F. Morse, Longview, chairman of the certifying agen cy, the Industrial Forestry Assn There are 36 separate owner ships in the most recently certi fied tree farms, Morse said. They include 22 in Oregon in 12 dif ferent counties, and 14 in Wash ington in seven different coun ties. There are now 99 tree farms In western Oregon with 1,757,071 acres, and 147 in western Wash ington with a total area of 2,- 658,359 acres. Among the newest certified tree farms are two in Lane County: one of 171 acres operated by Swanson Bros. Logging Co.; the other of 218 acres, operated by Prince E. Helfrich.

Ritchie Cowan, farm crops plant breeder, will coordinate the research project tentatively sche duled as a tive-to-six-year pro gram with annual renewal of the grant. Cowan says animal nu tritionists, conducting digestion trials with animals, have learned that chromogens pass through the digestive tract as-indigesta- ble compounds. They serve as an accurate indicator of what the animal has eaten, but such feeding trials are time-consuming and expensive. "Our problem," says Cowan, "has been to find a short cut to the possible place of chromogens in the nutritive value of plants, Chemical removal of chronogens from forage plants may be the answer. PRUNE production In western Oregon this year totalled around 39,000 tons, the USDA marketing service estimates. This compares with 34,000 tons last year and the 1943-52 average of 53,510 in this region. Total tonnage this year in Oregon, wasmngton ana ina rm is estimated at 86,000 tons, down from 85,800 tons in 1953 and a 10-year average of 111,910 tons. Weed Control Plans Conference Subject Oregon's organized weed-fight ers will plan next year's cam paign against these farm and home pests in Portland, Nov. 16 and 17, at the third annual Ore gon Weed Conference. Conference secretary Rex War ren, Oregon State College farm crops specialist, invites the pub lic to attend. "Weeds observe no boundaries on farms, ranches, and in town and It takes joint action to fight them." Warren declares. Major weed problems of Ore gon and reports on current weed- control research are main topics scheduled for the first session starting at 10:30 a.m. at the Im perial Hotel. Conference presi dent Allen C. Tom, Rufus, will open the meeting. Of special interest to home owners will be a report by Nor man Goetze, OSC farm crops de partment, on possibilities for con trolling velvet grass in bentgrass Hay fever sufferers will have their enemy common ragweed under attack by Hugh Taylor, State Department of Agriculture, and Dr. Harold M. Enckson, Port land, state health officer. Other problems up for discus sion include tansy ragwort con trol, brush control, and use of herbicides for controlling weed pests of vegetables and fruits. Ford Alters Prices And Shipping Costs DETROIT (IrV-The Ford Motor Co. Wednesday increased the wholesale price of all its 1954 model cars and trucks, but also changed its schedule of distribu tion and delivery charges to bring about lower prices in some areas. Price increases ranged from $3 on a light Ford truck to $21 on a Lincoln passenger car. But because of lowered delivery charges to dealers more than 1,000 miles from Detroit, Ford said a dealer in Los Angeles, for example, would realize a net re duction of charges of as much as $104 on Lincolns.
