Seed Industry Forms First State
Council ; Economist Sees
Improvement Ahead.
More than 300 farmers, represent
ing 18 Oregon counties and includ
ing several special groups such as
the seed growers, hop growers, and
a group particularly interested in
pastures and irrigation attended the
special Farm Science short course
at Oregon State college last week.
The week's program included 125
lectures, demonstrations and special
conferences, with daily addresses by
Dr. W. J. Spillman, agricultural
economist, U. S. D. A., Washington,
D. C. C. B. Denman, livestock rep
resentative of the Federal Farm
Board, spoke at the opening assem
bly. A permanent organization, to be
known as the Oregon State Seed
council, was formed by the seed
growers in a special conference fol
lowing a series of lectures on seed
problems. A. M. Hand or tne uurt
Hand Seed company of Portland,
was elected president; Vernon Bur
lineham of Forest Grove, vice-pres
ident; and Grace M. Cole, seed an
alyst at the college, secretary. Pro
posed seed legislation was also dis
cussed.
With 125 representatives of the
hop industry present, this group al
so formed a temporary organization
to be perfected in permanent form
at a later meeting to be held in Sa
lem. Control of the hop downy mil
dew and improvement of market in
formation service are two of the
major problems on which the new
group will cooperate.
Relief that orosDeritv caa be
brought back to the agricultural in
dustry in the not distant future was
expressed by Dr. Spillman. He re
viewed the present situation, which
he attributes to over-production,
under-consumption and expansion
in farm acreage due to new dry
land farming methods, and suggest
ed complete embargo on Russian
wheat and lumber and the conver
sion of part of this country's grain
acreage to other uses as measures
which would help solve the problem.

The Wickersham report drew the
largest volume of publicity of any
news break of the day, only to tell
the world that the prohibition prob
lem remains as much of a dilemma
in the United States as ever. A mass

of enlightenment Its outstanding
accomplishment is probably the
bringing of Newton D. Baker into
the limelight as a contender for the
democratic presidential nomination
