North American 17 H up 1 and Pa

In the airplane group, Martin
made a new high at 22 up i and
then eased to a fractional loss.

Some Cities Get
Cut in Milk Price
The Dalle. April 21 (JP) Edgar
Smith of Portland, chairman, an
nounced milk price declines of one
cent a quart effective at the end of
the month at The Dalles, Eugene,
Klamath Falls and Astoria yester
day at a state milk control board
hearing.
Four per cent milk will retail for
11 cents a quart and 6 per cent
milk at 13 cents. Similar reduc
tions occurred recently at Portland.
The Dalles prices went up In Oc
tober following a board hearing.
Smith said the reduction was de
signed to bring the cost to consum
ers on a level with other commodi
ties. The hearing wu attended by
only a few persons, Mrs. Thelma
Gibson said "hundreds of house
wives were disgusted" with milk
conditions and advocated "10 cents
a quart milk with any butterfat
content."
Producers appeared divided on
whether the 12 cent scale had caus
ed a surplus of bottled milk here.

Fuel Alcohol to be
Made at Dayton
Portland, April 21 W) A Yamhill
county delegation at a meeting spon
sored by the Oregon farm chemurglc
council said yesterday that manu
facture of fuel alcohol from farm
wastes would begin soon at Dayton.
The farmers, business men and
chemists met to open a campaign
for one of four federal farm re
search laboratories here.
The Yamhill group said English
motor fuels, supplied by a ma J tor oil
company, were one-third alcohol.
Speakers said if 10 percent of the
United States' motor fuel supply was
alcohol, it would require all the pro
duce of tillable lands in the nation.
James W. Richardson, Dayton, de
clared "agriculture should be self-
helping and not continuously look
ing for Santa Claus. American ag
riculture does not want a dictator
nor a dole, but a fair price for farm
products.

USE ENOUGH POTASH
Potash plays a big part in growing potatoes al
a profit because consumers will pay extra foi
a product of good quality. Potash not only in
creases the yield of No. 1 potatoes, but rounds
out the tubers into desirable shapes, makes the
plants more resistant to diseases, and prevents
sogginess and darkened color in cooked pota
toes. Use at least 10 potash in your potato fer
tilizer applied at the rate of 800 to 1,000 pounds
per acre. Potash may also be added to manure
before planting or along the rows as a side-dressing
at the rate of 200 pounds per acre. Consult
your fertilizer dealer. You will be surprised
how little it costs to apply the right amount
of potash to make your potatoes pay profits.
