GRAIN RATE ORDER INTERESTS VALLEY SHIPPERS
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1930 EXCLUSIVE NEWS DISPATCHES
FARMERS AIDED
TO SAVE MONEY
THRU REDUCTION
Dallas The grain rote order
which is due to go Into effect on
January 1, 1931 Ls the target of
numerous complaints not only from
the western railroads but from
many other parts of the country.
In New Orleans It Is claimed by
those hi authority that the rela
tionship of export grain between
the north Atlantic and Gulf ports
will be upset to a considerable ex
tent and that New Orleans and its
neighboring ports will be placed at
a great disadvantage. Numerous
grain elevator companies in Texas,
Oklahoma and Kansas have filed a
petition against the order and are
seeking its postponement until July
1.
Considerable dissatisfaction is be.
ing expressed in South Dakota
with the measure as it limits the
free transit stops to two for further
processing and one for inspection.
The interests there, however, are
well pleased with the reductions
for the growers which are provided.
"Not so good" is the expressed
opinion of the Iowa farmer of
coarse grain and his brothers in
the same line in Minnesota, Mis
souri and Wisconsin, who face an
Increase of rates. Commissioner
Porter of Iowa, has made a strong
protest against this increase.
The decision is 1 eing criticised at
many of ' the country's terminal
markets because of the provisions
regarding mixed feeds containing
other than grain material. These
feeds will no longer be shipped out
of milling points on the unpaid
balance of the through rate. 8uch
feeds manufactured at any transit
point will be shipped out from the
point at which they were manufac
tured on the local rate. Because
of this, much of the mixing of feeds
will take place at country points
where there is a demand for such
a feed due to poultry and dairy
interests.
Until a few days ago no Pacific
northwest milling or market inter
est has made any move seeking
a modification or postponement of
the grain rate order, although it
Is known that many milling inter
ests are anything but satisfied with
the proposed changes.
According to reports it seems
more than likely that the Southern
Pacific railroad will endeavor to put
into effect higher rates from points
served by them in western Oregon
than a proper interpretation of the
order justifies. While specific rates
are set forth from many points In
eastern Oregon, Washington and
Idaho to the North Pacific ports, no
such ratei are named from points
In the Willamette valley.
The order does, however, contain
a statement that rates to ports in
primary markets that are not spe
ciflcally mentioned are to have a
reasonable relation to those set
forth. Further, among mlscellane
ous country points a distance scale
shall apply and this scale rates
about three cents a hundred higher
for corresponding distances than
the specific rates.
The present rates on grain and
grain products between representa
tive points, and what the rates
would be under this scale which, It
is indicated, the Southern Pacific
might endeavor to use as a meas
ure in the publication of new rates.

ers in general. I H. McBce, state

which they moved to the Skaife
home on South Water street where 1
he passed away Sunday morning.
This South water house, wnicn
also belonged to Robert Skaife, was
known all the countryside around
as "Old Bachelor's Hall" because
five young men. Dr. D. Dennis, two
of the Mcintosh and two of the
Skaife boys lived together there for
many months.
Mr. Skaife leaves one son. Claire,

COUNTY AGENT
TOPIC AGAIN
Hubbard The county agent ques
tion which has been of more than
passing interest to the farmers of
the Hubbard district, was presented
from all angles at a meeting held
Thursday at Butteville. The meet
ing was sponsored by the Butteville
grange and the advance publicity
was financed by Hubbard, Aurora,
Woodburn and Donald business and
professional men.
It was demonstrated that the
county agricultural agent would help
to make farming a scientific busi
ness which in turn would result in
increased farm dividends and cash.
The speakers said that they believed
that the employment of a county
agent in Marion county was a sound
business policy because it hatl been
shown that it was such in 29 other
counties In the state and in 2300
agricultural counties in the United
States.

DALLAS PEOPLE
ARE ALARMED BY
BLAZE THREATS
Dallas The" fire siren cutting
loose about 11:15 p. m. Friday night
followed a few minutes later by the
whistle from the mill sent practical
ly the whole town to the scene of
the outbreak fearing another dis
astrous blaze.
The scene of the blaze was a small
shack located amongst the stacked
lumber at the end of Lewis street.
Supplies stored in the building and
the place itself were a total loss.
The flames spread to a neighbor
ing lumber pile and for a time it
seemed as if the loss would be con
siderable. Quick action on the part of the
fire department, however, prevented
blaze irom spreading. Damage was
caused to several thousand feet of
lumber. Cause of the fire is not
known.
