Coos county farmers who are parti- j
cl pa ting in the Agricultural Conser- '
vation program will receive an aver-
ag* diversion payment of $8 per acre
instead of $6 which was the average
for farms throughout the United
States for diverting land from the
production of soil depleting crops to
the production of soil conserving
crops, according to information just
received by the local association from
the state office.
In addition to the $8 diversion rate,
a payment of $5.85 for each acre di
verted will be made to apply on the
soil building allowance on diversion
farms and the average soil building
allowance rate .per acre on all crop
land on non-diversion farms will be
$1.19 per acre as compared with the
80c for an average for the United
States as a whole.
According to the information, just
received, practically the same pay
ment will be made for the diversion
from the production of depleting
?rops such as grain, corn, potatoes,
root crops, etc., to the production of
conserving crops r such as alfalfa,
clover, apd permanent grasses. The
only, difference from last year’s pro
gram is that $5.95 of this payment
goes to build up the soil building al
lowance instead of being paid direct
for diversion, it was stated by George
Jenkins, county agent.
These figures will be used during
the next few days in the county

imately 25,006 members ahead of the
same date last year, the American
Legion Auxiliary is making a strong
bid to exceed last year’s record en
rollment of 424,311, according to
Mabie Kunz, membership chairman
of the local Auxiliary unit. On March
1st, 347,308 members had enrolled for
1837.
Three membership trophies
awarded this month went to depart
ments of Louisiana and Wisconsin.
Louisiana won the Towne trophy, for
the largest percentage of gain up to
March 1st, and the Carpenter trophy
for the department in the southern
division first reaching its quota, while
Wisconsin
won
the
MacDowell
trophy, for the department in the
central division enrolling the highest
percentage of its quota up to March
1st.
farm« which are Included in the pro
gram thia year and thia information
will be aent to each owner on a form
provided for that purpose. Thia will
make it posaible for the farm operator
to determine how much he can earn
and what can be done to earn the al
lowance, Jenkins stated.
The rate of payment on individual
farms will vary according to the pro
ductivity of the farm as determined
by the county committee just as the
rates paid in each county vary with
the productivity of the crop land in
that county. The rates paid in Coos
county are second from the highest
paid in Oregon being exceeded only
by Malheur county which carries a
rate of >10 for diversion, $6.70 for
soil building allowance on diverted
acres, and $1.34 on crop land on non
diversion farms. Other high counties
are Hood River, Columbia and Wash
ington.
