16 Eastern Oregon Counties
Plan Wheat Growers
Conference
Dates for the all eastern Oregon
economic conference on wheat have
been set for February 11, 12, and 13
by officials of the college extension
service and experiment station, who,
with leading farmers, are sponsoring
Decision to hold such a conference
was reached recently at a meeting in
Portland attended by college officials
and county agents from all grain
growing counties east of the moun
tains. As problems connected with
wheat raising are fairly uniform in
the counties in that district it was
thought that a joint conference this
winter, following a fairly satisfactory
season, would be opportune.
Place of meeting and details of the
conference are' tentative pending
further conferences with leading
wheat raiser? throughout the district,
the advice of whom will be followed
closely. Preliminary plans call iv.
five subcommittees, each headed by
a wheat raiser, to consider the ques
tion of world supply and demand;
farm management and land utilisa
tion; finance and credit; grading,
handling and transportation; tillage
and production pracdeaa.
Pendleton to favored by many as
the logical meeting place for the con
ference, though the opinions of more
growers will be sought before this
matter is settled. .E. R. Jackman,
farm crops specialist in the extension
service and one of the men most
familiar with wheat growing condi
tions, will spend the next two months
in the district concerned consulting
with growers and holding preliminary
meetings in preparation for the cen
tral conference.
All 16 counties east of the moun-
tains will be represented in the con
ference according to present plans,
as all have wheat areas of more or
less importance.
