Oregon and other Pacific Coast sub-standard dried prunes are to be removed from the regular mar ket through a program arranged by the Pacific Coast prune indus try and the Agricultural Adjust ment Administration. The plan is to dispose, through by-products channels, of from 20,000 to 25,000 tons of sub-standard prunes from the last two crops, according to details of the plan received by Oregon State college extensio» service officials. The arrangement is made pos sible because of the provisions of recent amendments to the Agri cultural Adjustment act which make available 30 per cent of the gross receipts from customs duties to be used to encourage exports of agricultural products or their do mestic consumption as by-products The program was proposed by prune growers of the Pacific coats who organized for the purpose the Pacific Prune Producers’ associa tion. With money advanced by the Reconstruction Finance corpora tion,' this association will purchase the sub-standard prunes on a sche dule of minimum prices tq be ap proved by the secretary Of agri culture. ‘The association will then process the prunes where neces sary and offer them for sale at prices not below an approved sche dule. The difference in the price paid for the prunes plus the cost of handling and the price received will be made up from customs funds. Actual administrative costs ot operating the plan, however, will be met by an assessment of $1 per ton to be deducted from the pur chase price paid the growers. The money advanced by thevRFC will thus be returned from the proceeds of the three sources. It is believed by those in charge that the remov al of the sub-standard prunes will materially benefit t'he market for the higher grades. Jack —How’s your insomnia, Bob? A Bob—Worse and worse.

Opening the 1936 Oregon farm inventory campaign, the OSC ex tension service has just issued in its monthly agricultural situatioi report current information on farm inventories, credit statements and farm operation budget plans. The eight page circular also reveals that the Oregon farm price situa tion is continuing to improve even faster than in the country as a whole. Listed in the circular are many farm management bulletins which are available from county agents, as well as farm record books, farm price outlook information and market reports that are avail able by mail and radio. With National Farm Inventory week coming just after New Year’s, it is time to get the 1935 farm records closed up and new ones started, say the extension agricultural economists. County agricultural agents are prepared to assist any farmer who needs help, either to obtain satisfactory record books and forme or in get ting his records started.

Farm prices in the country as a whole have been rather high in re lation to the purchasing power of consumers, owing to reduced sup plies of farm products in the drought areas. Consequently the improvement in demand, as fac tory payrolls increase, is showing more effect on farm prices in Ore gon than in the country generally.
