the annual meeting of 1 that
group in Salem, January 23-2.
The Marion, Polk and Clack
amas county organizations are
to be hosts for the meeting.
Alvin Hartley, Louis Hennies
and Karl Wipper explained
features of the meeting which
they are arranging.
Brazil was the subject of an
illustrated talk by Harry Tav
ener, Klamath Falls student.
VrUo has ust returned from six
months in that country as an
exchange student on the Inter
national Farm Youth program
which is dedicated to world
peace.
. Describing his experiences
among head hunter tribe on
the Amazon river, Tavener
said he was very happy to
make his personal contribution
to world peace when the tribe
chieftain became fascinated
with his blonde hair and insist
ed on feeling of it Since an
English lady bad recently been
killed on that spot by the na
tives, Tavener felt happy to
trade most of his locks for a
well-worn bow. .
Tropical fever and ticks are
so prevalent among cattle
herds that both beef and milk
production is quite poor, Tav
ener said. Some Improvement
in cattle type has been made by
crossing Guernsey bulls on
Brahma native stock. The best
dairy stock is that which has
been reared and partially im
munized to disease in Argen
tina. Coffee grown for export Is
the chief money crop of Brazil,
he noted. In preparing land
for the crop, more hardwood
trees are burned each year
than are cut in the U. S. Re
growth of trees and weeds is
extremely rapid.
Russel Daulton, Jefferson
meat merchant, spoke briefly
on a beef-bacon product he has
developed from cheap cuts of
beef. Others . introduced in
cluded Mrs. Alvin Hartley, vice
president of the Oregon Wool
Growers auxiliary; Mrs. Carl
Booth, county superintendent
of schools; Willard Nelson, U

Leo Spitzbart, manager of the
Oregon State Fair, and Bruce
Arnold, Pacific Wool Growers
association.
