FARMERS' PICNIC
Continued from First Page
producing varieties of whaet de
veloped at the experiment stations
which have increased the return of
wheat farmers by several hundred
thousand dollars annually.
Professor Hyslop cited soil ero
sion and weeds as the two ever
present enemies of agriculture, and
told something of the work that has
been done to battle these enemies.
He stressed the recent passage of
weed control legislation as a major
step of progress and urged .united
action among farmers in obtain
ing help from federal agencies. The
federal government has authorized
assistance in exterminating morn
ing glory, and he believed the same
type of assistance is available for
other obnoxious weeds, of which
Russian knapp and white top are
now giving trouble, if strong enough
demand is shown. So far, the bu
reau to which this type of control
has bene assigned has been reluct
ant in pushing it, and Professor
Hyslop believed a little prodding
would not be amiss.
Mr. Adams spoke also on the
transportation theme, stressing ex
isting inequalities that work against
wheatmen's interests, and urging
action on the part of growers.
Mr. White discussed some of the
recent state legislation affecting the
wheat industry, with stress on weed
control measures, and offered assist
ance of his department in making
such legislation effective. He told
of organization work in his depart
ment that has greatly increased ef
ficiency from standpoint of admin
istration as well as giving the pub
lic better service. Having hailed
from Sherman county originally,
and having been reared on a wheat
farm, he believed himself to be in a
position to sympathize with the
needs of eastern Oregon wheat
growers. Stressed was the point of
availability to farmers of wheat
grading facilities in his department.
Many times farmers have received
increased returns by ascertaining
the protein content of their wheat
before marketing it, he said.
The league executive committee
met in the afternoon and decided
to leave the matter of cooperation
with the Tri-State Transportation
league in the hands of each indi
vidual county. E. H. Miller, one of
the transportation league directors
for Oregon, represented Morrow
county at the meeting.
Among attendants from Morrow
county were E. H. Miller, O. W.
Cutsforth, T. W. Cutsforth, Mr. and
Mrs. C. E. Carlson, Mr. and Mrs
Leonard Carlson, Mr and Mrs. Chas.

"The immediate objective of the

are threatened. Railroad, ocean and
highway carriers would divert from
wheat growers money needed to pay
their delinquent taxes and mort
gages. "The threatened inroads on the
1937 crop returns already amount to
over five million dollars.
"Details are confusing but starting
with June 11th at Washington, D. C,
hearings are scheduled including at
Portland, June 15th, and Seattle
about July 15th, at which the wheat
growers will have opportunity to be
heard.
"The wheat growers are willing to
pay their fair share of transportation
charges but no longer should be
asked to pay more.
"Among the long-time objectives
of the council will be to obtain the
same level of rail freight rates upon
wheat and flour to North Pacific
ports that is in effect to North At
lantic ports. Much Canadian wheat
annually moves over American rail
roads to North Atlantic ports at 4
mills per ton mile while our Inland
Empire wheat is charged 14 to 16
mills per ton mile for movement to
North Pacific American ports.
"Also the council will seek intra -coastal
and intercoastal ocean freight
rates upon wheat and flour that are
no higher than the rates applicable
to and from our ports upon Canad
ian and other foreign ships. A con
dition precedent to the granting of
subsidy by the newly organized
Maritime commission should be pub
lication of freight rates on a level
that places the American shipper on
a competitive freight rate basis with
his foreign cbmpetitor.
"The board consists of, for. Wash
wheat grower to subscribe 1 mills
per bushel from his 1937, 1938 and
1939 crops, and committees will
shortly be at work collecting the
needed funds. Business men inter
ested in protecting the buying pow
er of wheat growers will be invited
to subscribe additional funds.
"The board consists of, for Wash
ington: B. F. Druffel, Colton; H. F.
Beckley, Benge; S. F. Ganders, Bick
elton; Roy Perringer, Belmont, and
J. J. Edwards, Dayton. For Oregon:
