Flour Exnort Extended: I 'un8 bo acted p111"

Extension of the export subsidy
on wheat flour from Pacific north
west states for one year has been
approved by Secretary Wallace, giv
ing promise of the removal of more
than 2hi million bushels of wheat
from Oregon, Washington and Idi
ho by this device. The subsidy ap
plies only to exports of flour to the
Philippines.
This program was launched last
March, and by the time it expired
by limitation of time June 30, there
had been 190,206 barrels exported
by means of this aid. As it takes
about 4.6 bushels of wheat for one
barrel of flour, this was equivalent
to approximately 875,000 bushels of
wheat. The new program is limited
to 675,300 barrels, or a movement
essentially in proportion to that at
tained in the past four months.
Funds for carrying on this type
of export assistance come from cus
tom receipts, 30 per cent of which
were made available through AAA
amendments for use in stimulating
export or other use of surplus com
modities, and in encouraging pro
duction of crops needed lor domes
tic consumption. This same source
is responsible for the recently an
nounced fiber flax subsidy program
and for the diversion of walnuts
to unusual channels of trade.
Although final returns have not
yet been compiled, number of work
sheets turned in by Oregon farmers
will exceed 18,000, according to pre
liminary estimates made by county
agents and other extension work'
ers. This is a far larger number
than participated in the former
AAA crop control programs in Ore
gon, though it is expected that some
of those who turned in work sheets
will not qualify for later payments.
Now that worK sheets have been
turned in, the next step for grow
ers is to be sure and keep proof of
compliance. All records or other
eviuence bearing on compliance had
best be kept, say those in charge of
the program, particularly where a
crop failure may have occurred.
Among items that may prove
heipiul are receipts for purchase
of seed or other materials, proof
of the kind and amount of seed
sown, date and method of seeding,
number and identification of acres,
and, at times, signed statements
of neighbors.

Maple, Palmberg Coach
Freshman Sports at OSC
Oregon State College. Appoint
ment of Howard Maple as fresh
man coach, with Wally Palmberg
aa his assistant in charge of basket
ball next year, completes the as
signment of duties in the new in
tercollegiate athletic setup for the
coming years. The new athletic
board has adopted budgets for next
year calling for a full program of
sports including minor sports nex.
spring.
Maple is a graduate of Oregon
State and was selected on several
all-American teams following the
sensational victory in 1928 of Ore
gon State over the un-defeated New
York university team. In addition
he piloted Oregon State as quarter
back in two successive victories
over Oregon in his sophomore and
junior years.
In addition to his football exper
ience, Maple was varsity catcher in
baseball and later went to the
American league to play with Wash
ington. For the past several years
he has been assistant coach at Wil
lamette university. He will be in
charge of all freshman sports but
will have Wally Palmberg, coast
conference all-star forward for the
Orangemen this season, to handle
freshman basketball.
Decision was made by the board
to start spring football training in
January hereafter in order to avoid
conflict with spring sports such as
track and baseball. This will re
quire Maple's services during the
basketball season.
Members of the athletic board
were enthusiastic over the sports
prospects with the completion of
the separate organization. The
complete personnel as now arranged
is as follows:
Carl Lodell, director and mana
ger of intercollegiate sports; George
Scott, alumni secretary, to serve
part time as assistant manager; Lon
Stiner, head football coach; Jim
Dixon and Hal Moe, assistant foot
ball coaches; A. T. "Slats" GiJ,
basketball and baseball coach;
Grant Swan, track coach; Howard
Maple, head freshman coach; Wally
Palmberg, assistant freshman
coach; R. O. Coleman, golf; Jack
Hewitt swimming; Dr. G. T. Simms,
tennis. All of the minor sports
coaches and part of the major
coaches give only part time to their
specific coaching duties.
The entire cost will continue to
be met from student fee-tickets and
other gate receipts.

ivenesa The operating cost of an
electric fence is only a few cents a
month when properly installed and,
because of its rather temporary con
struction, may be moved from place
to place.
In tests conducted at the Oregon
experiment station, electric fence
was found entirely practical for
dairy cows even when a smooth
wire was used, but a smooth wire
was not effctive for pigs unless it
happens to touch the animal's nose
or ear. Branton believs that one
heavily barbed wire, well insulated
would have been effective with hogs,
sheep or goats which have consid
erable natural protection from the
electric current.

Electric Fencing Found
Economical for Farmers
Use of electricity holds consider
able possibilities in reducing fenc
ing costs on the farm, beleves Ivan
Branton, assistant agricultural en
gineer at Oregon State college, who
has investigated various kinds of
electric fencing. When properly in
stalled, Branton says, electric fenc
ing is entirely safe for stock as well
as human beings and lends itself
particularly to pasture rotation use,
The advantage of electric fencing
is that only one wire is needed and
posts may be merely stakes driven
in the ground three or four rods
apart Once cattle have been train
ed by contact with the slightly
charged wire they will leave it en
tirely alone. It has been found ad
vantageous to string up a wire in
the barnyard where the cattle will
learn about it before they are placed
in the field where it is in regular
use.
It is important, says Branton, to
obtain equipment that is approved
by the state electrical inspector and
then Install it strictly according to
the directions of the manufacture!
It is not practical to try to connect
electricity to ordinary fencing nor
to connect any fence wire to an
electric circuit without specific
equipment designed for that pur
pose.
The single barbed wire ordinarily
used for electric fencing is strung
on insulators. Wood posts will not
conduct the current from the wire
when dry but during rainy weather
they are likely to destroy its effect-
from within a 30-mile radius of the
city of Portland and well over half
of the total labor came from that
area. For the 1935 raspberry sea
son, out-of-state pickers represent
ed 32.4 per cent of the total pickers
employed though more than one
fifth of these out-of-state pickers
came from Washington.
Third Farm Labor Survey
Report Made, OSC, WPA
The third in a series of research
reports dealing with Oregon farm
labor problems has just been issued
by the agricultural experiment sta
tion at O. S. C. in cooperation with
federal relief projects. The new
report is entitled "Preliminary In
formation Concerning Employment
of Berry Pickers in the Gresham
Berry District," and was prepared
by C. S. Hoffman, assistant state
supervisor of research, under the
direction of L, R. Breithaupt, ex
tension economist and state super
visor of rural research under the
federal relief set up.
The Gresham area is recognized
as one of the farm labor problem
regions of the state, requiring a
large amount of seasonal labor to
handle strawberry and raspberry
crops. Professional berry pickers
ordinarily come only for the straw
berry season as a higher average
daily wage can be paid than for
raspberries. ,
The preliminary report just pub
lished is a result of detailed study
of the records of the past two sea
sons in the Gresham district. It is
estimated that approximately 7000
pickers are annually employed dur
ing the strawberry and raspberry
seasons and that most of those are
residents of the metropolitan area
surrounding Portland.
In the seasons studied, more than
90 per cent of the resident labor was
