At the western regional meeting at Salt i-akc city last week, and the state meet.ng at Corvallis March 30 and 31, details of the progium were outlined and ad ministrative plans decided upon so l.»t county educational meet ings iduy proceed at once. Ut most l is being sought be cause of .. c necessity to have larmers undeio.i id the proceed- ure before the spring planting season is over. “This is not a gilt program,” emphasized George E. Farrell, newly appointed director of the far western region. ‘ No one is going to be paid for merely oper ating his farm.” Oregon State college leaders who attended the Salt Lake meet ing and later conducted the state meeting at Corvallis say that the new act is positive in nature and will tend in action to lend govern mental encouragement to sound soil conservation and crop prac tices such as have been worked out by agricultural research and ad- vocated through the extension ser- vice. Oregon State college men be- lieve the program will bring ab- out more rapid addition to the al falfa and clover acreage in west ern Oregon and a transfer of con- siderable eastern Oregon land to dry-land grasses such as crested wheat grass. In addition a range soil improvement program for the west is being evolved which it is hoped will meet the approval of the federal government.
