Emergency Crop Loans Farmers seeking loans from the $400,000,000 emergency crop loan fund will be directed to apply first to the production credit association of their respective communities, an nounced Governor Wm. I. Myers of the Farm Credit administration. If the association cannot make the loan because the applicant has lnsutilcient collateral this will es tablish the proof required by law that the borrower is not eligible to Dorrow from other sources, the gov ernor explained. Rules and regulations relating to the administration of this fund, to gether with application forms, are now being prepared. It is required by the law that borrowers as a condition to receiv ing an emergency loan must furnish proof of cooperation with the Ag ricultural Adjustment administra tion. The nature of proof of copo eration will be similar to that re cently announced as applicable to other borrowers who apply for loans under the Farm Credit ad ministration. Each applicant must obtain clear ance through or furnish a certifi cate of cooperation from the coun ty production control committee of the Agricultural Adjustment ad ministration. The production con trol association will make available lists of those who have signed acre age control contracts. Farmers who are on this list, if otherwise eligible to borrow, will be able to obtain loans. County councils of the production control associations will certify to representatives of the Farm Credit administration the names of any farmers who, while not signing acreage control contracts, are co operating by not increasing their production contrary to the acreage control program. Where county councils have not been set up, Farm Credit adminis tration representatives will be in structed to make no loans to farm ers who are planning to increase production. For the time being, according to Governor Myers, the various dis trict emergency crop loan offices will handle the applications for loans from the $400,000,000 fund, and these offices will be under the immediate direction of the Emer gency Crop loan division, which is placed under the supervision of the production credit commissioner, S. M. Garwood, and the governor. The emergency crop loans will be made at an interest rate of 5 Governor Myers pointed out that the 587 production credit associa tions chartered through Tuesday with an aggregate authorized cap ital of over $60,600,000, could make available in excess of $300,000,000 of production loans to elegible farm borrowers. Associations are being organized rapidly, he added. Before spring the entire agricultural area of the United States will be served by these associations. The total amount of production credit which can be made available through them will far exceed the $300,000,000 possible from associations chartered to date. MARRIED AT WALLA WALLA.

Pacific Woolgrotvers Approved For Handling Federa I Wools The Pacific Wool Growers has been approved as a marketing agen cy for growers whose wools are financed by the Regional Agricul tural Credit corporation or the Fed eral Intermediate Credit Bank units of the Farm Credit administration, according to wrd just received by Garnet Barratt, Heppner, director from this district of the Pacific as sociation, thirteen - year - old wool cooperative handling the clips of approximately 2300 western grow ers. It maintains warehouse facil ities in Portland, San Francisco and Boston, and sales offices in Bos ton as well as on the Pacific coast, selling its members' wools direct to mills. The Pacific Wool Growers is one of the first agencies to be approved for handling 1934 wools under the Farm Credit administration regula tions which provide that wool from sheep which are security for loans received directly or indirectly thru government agencies should not be sold but mu3t be consigned to an approved cooperative or dealer and marketed in an orderly manner. A similar program was in effect last year, and the Pacific was one of the agencies marketing these government financed wools in 1933. "A most successful year has just been completed," says R. A. Ward, manager of the Pacific Wool Grow ers, "and we returned to our mem bers prices several cents a pound higher than wool prices during the shearing season. Recognition by the federal administration of the orderly marketing program is grat ifying to our members and direct ors, who have been following a sim ilar program in the selling of their Al AMERICAN PfcO'rU HP lATtlE INTEREST IN GtTttNG THEIR.

Even before the organization of the Farm Credit administration in 1931 the Pacific was approved as an agent to handle the wools of various livestock loan companies and credit corporations in the northwest. Mr. Ward has just returned from Washington D. C. and Boston where he attended a meeting of the Na tional Cooperative council, meet ings of the National Wool Trade association, and worked with the association's eastern representa tives in selling association wools. Mr. Ward was re-elected vice-president of the National Cooperative council and acted as a delegate from that organization to the newly formed ' National Agricultural con ference, which is a forum designed to coordinate the activities of the various national farm groups such as the American Farm Bureau Fed eration, the National Grange, the National Cooperative council, and others. The National Wool Trade asso ciation, of which Mr. Ward is a di rector, is also a new organization. It is at this time working on a code of fair practices which will govern .wool buying practices in the United States after it is approved by wool growers and manufacturers' asso ciations, and N. R. A. officials. GRAZING FOR LEASE. UMATILLA COUNTY, 12,073 acres along and north of the north fork of the John Day River includ ing lands in Texas Bar Basin.

The World's Book of Comfort "To comfort all that mourn," Isaiah 61-2. As no other book can do, the Bible comes to - "comfort all that mourn." When trouble overtakes us; when the grave covers our dead, and we wander aimlessly In the darkened household, grieving "for the touch of a vanished hand, and the sound of a voice that is still," it is in the Word of God, the Bible, that we find peace and comfort. In times of sorrow and affliiction the Bible is peculiarly adapted to our needs. It teaches us to say: "God is our refuge and strength; a very present help in trouble." It assures us that, "Our light afflic tion, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceed ing and eternal weight of glory." The Bible reminds us, "Let not your heart be troubled; in My Father's house are many mansions." If we are ready and willing to walk with God here, there will be room in plenty for us all yonder in heaven and above all, in the great heart of God's love. How we need, in such days as these, to read the Bible, believe it, live in it, walk by it, and thus, in the pages of the WORLD'S BOOK OF COMFORT, find the great peace passing all understanding. Try it! . It will bring you joy and peace and help and COMFORT! Do you have a Church home? If not, we invite you to come and worship with us. Come and test the welcome of this friendly church.

Seed Treatment Prevents Early Peas From Rotting Treatment of early planted gar den pea seed with Semesan, an or ganic mercury compound, has been found to insure a markedly higher germination and increased vigor of the plants, in experiments car ried on by the vegetable crops de partment at Oregon State college, Poor germination of peas plant ed in cold, wet soil in spring, or subjected to such conditions after planting, is caused mostly by rots induced by molds. Even where the plant is not entirely destroyed, the growth may be seriously impaired, say the experiment station spec ialists. Tests carried on under controlled conditions of temperature and moisture showed that the average germination of treated seed under favorable conditions was 90 per cent compared with only 28 per cent among the untreated lots. Later growth records showed the treated lots to average from 100 to 350 per cent better than those untreated. The treatment is simple and ec onomlcal, costing only about a cent for each pound of seed where large lots are treated. A small quantity of the dust equal to seven times the size of a pin head is enough for the ordinary 10 cent packet of seed. Seed and powder are shaken to gether several minutes to insure complete coating. A full discussion of the college experiments may be had in a free Circular of Informa tion, No. 90. U. O. Professor's Work Aids Lawyers of State Eugene. Work on annotation of the law of contracts with Oregon cases, a project undertaken four years ago by Charles G. Howard, professor of law at the University of Oregon, has progressed to a point where it is now of great value to lawyers of the state, it was an nounced by Wayne L. Morse, dean of the school of law. The project Involves the examin ation of cases wherein the law of contracts is involved in the Oregon Supreme court, and the determin ation of what extent the common law of contracts agrees with or differs from the American Law Institute's restatement in this field. Clarity and uniformity in the com mon law, as well as compilation of a restatement that may be readily used by lawyers, are the aims of the work. SIX IN FAMILY ATTEND O.S.C.

Anthropology Museum At U. of 0. Is Growing Eugene. Two contributions from widely different sources, and both of considerable importance, were received during the past week by the Anthropological Museum of the University Of Oregon, it was an nounced recently by Dr. L. S. Cressman, director. The first of the contributions was sent in by Mark Seale, manager of the Shell Oil company coast dis trict. It is an Indian skeleton, ex cavated near North Bend. It will be examined in the near future in an effort to determine lt9 age and to classify it anthropologically. A small crustacean, a young crab, found in a small shale nodule about the size of a fist was sent In by the State Highway Commission. It was discovered in the vicinity of Humbug mountain ranger station in Clatsop county, at an elevation of 1,062 feet, and is Indicative of the marked change in sea level in that area. Contributions of an thropological, archaelogical or his torical value will be welcomed for the Anthropological Museum, Dr. Cressman states. U. O. Dean Chosen for Pacific Relations Post Eugene. Wayne Li Morse, dean of the school of law of the Univer sity of Oregon, has been elected to membership In the American Coun cil of the Institute of Pacific Rela tions. Members of the American council are chosen from the out standing people in every occupa tion and profession who are inter ested in Pacific relations. The coun cil is a division of the institute which was formed to promote the cooperative study of relations of all countries bordering on the Pacific. The Institute meets every two years to hear reports and results of re search carried on under its aus pices. It has met in Honolulu, To kio, Shanghai and in Canada. A clearing house of information is also maintained by the organiza tion. Spring Pasturing Cuts Most Seed Crop Yields To pasture or not to pasture seed crops in the spring of the year is frequently a question hard for a farmer to decide. Opinions differ and experimental results are ad mittedly incomplete, says the farm crops department at Oregon State college. Observation and experiments, however, have convinced those who have studied the case that under Oregon conditions it does not pay to pasture crops in the spring to be used for seed, with the possible ex ception of rye grass and red clover. In general spring pasturing reduces yields by retarding maturity, in creasing the susceptibility to dis ease and insects and damaging the soil by puddling. Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Lundell were lone district residents transacting business in the city today. CALL FOR WARRANTS.
