HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, AUG. 26, 1937 PAGE SEVEN Yearly Outlook Report Published by College Despite indications of the possi bility of increased production of an imal products within the next few ears if feed production is average or better, the market outlook during -the year ahead for meat, milk, and eggs is promising. Such is the con clusion to be gained from detailed information just published by the OSC extension service in its annual review of the situation and outlook for poultry, dairy, and livestock products, available from county ag ricultural agents. , The report gives data showing that consumer demand has strengthened materially since a year ago, while the trend of production for the year ahead promises to be substantially smaller for eggs, slightly less for milk, and not materially more or less for meats. With respect to hogs, sheep, and beef cattle, however, there are signs of increase which are worthy of consideration from the longer viewpoint, depending largely upon the extent of the prob able increase in feed supplies dur ing the next five years. In reviewing the wheat market o'utlook for -the crop of 1938, the re port states that the situation is un usually difficult to analyze. How ever, it is evident from the data giv n that there will be a very large quantity of soft red and white wheats available for export from the United States this season for which there will not be a domestic need. Owing to the close adjustment of world supplies to probable utiliza tion, American producers will have the advantage of a demand for larger exports during the 1937-38 marketing year than for many years, so that a substantial part of the 175 , million bushel exportable surplus may be shipped abroad. Nevertheless, the carryover next July 1 in the United States will probably be larger than this year. It is also expected that the wheat prices current will encourage farm ers to plant wheat and in this con nection the report says "it is signif icaht that the largest seeded acre age of wheat in the history of the United States was sown in the fall of 1936 and spring of 193781 mil lion acres, compared with 67 million as the 1928-32 average seeded acre age. If yields had been equal to the 1926-32 average, the 1937 wheat crop of the United States would have been approximately one-fifth great er and the exportable surplus twice as great as it is now estimated. Poultrymen Planning Green Feed Needs Piactically any section of Oregon where poultry is produced is also capable of growing a year-round supply of green feed for chickens or turkeys, if a well-planned rotation for this purpose is followed, says Harry A. Schoth, federal agrono mist, in a new state college bulletin entitled, "Green Feed and Pasture for Poultry." The bulletin contains a list of seven suggested planting tables for the different sections of the state, which, under normal conditions, will give a year-round supply of green feed. For example, a planting table for the well-drained lands of the Willamette valley, not irrigated, con sists of crimson clover and domes tic rye grass, small grains, and vetch planted in the fall, red clover, corn or sunflowers, rape or summer cab bage, kale, roots and Sudan grass. Not all of these are necessary on any one farm, as the seasons of use over lap considerably. Alfalfa is also suggested in many of the rotations, as it produces an abundance of spring, summer and early fall green seed, and a good stand will last from three to seven years or more. Best Use Mechanical Refrigeration Told To get the most service from a mechanical refrigerator for the least cost, it is necessary to use discretion as to its placement and use, says Everett Davis, extension specialist in agricultural engineering at Ore gon State college. It is a good idea, if possible, to place the refrigerator convenient to the outside door, the work cabinet, the sink, table, and dining room, but not too near the stove or out in the sunshine, Davis says. Some of the "dont's" to be remembered in con nection with its use are as follows: Don't put hot foods into the refrig erator; don't crowd the shelves and hinder free air circulation; don't open the door unnecessarily; and don't store things in the refrigerator that do not need refrigerating, such as potatoes, canned goods and ba nanas. It is desirable, although not ab solutely necessary, he says, to have an electric refrigerator on a separate circuit. If possible the door should open away from the work space near it. The cabinet should stand from two or three inches from the wall. For ordinary operation, tempera tures of not less than 40 degrees F. or more than 45 or 50 degrees F. are recommended. When the tempera ture control has been set for quick freezing, it should be reset to the usual position when the freezing operation is complete. It is also es sential that the cooling unit be de frosted regularly for best results.

Atk your newhborl Visitors' Day Planned Squaw Butte Station Oregon's largest and newest branch experiment station will hold its first field day when stockmen from Ore gon and neighboring states gather at the 16,000-acre Squaw Butte range station in Harney county west of Burns. While very little actual experi mental work has been carried out, the division of grazing of the depart ment of the interior and the O. S. C. experiment station, which cooperate in the management of the station, have arranged the field day to ac quaint stockmen with the plans and purposes of the huge undertaking. Arrangements are being made to entertain some 200 visitors, Wednes day, September 15. The stockmen are being invited to arrive in time for a 12 o'clock dinner at the CCC camp, after which they will be shown the headquarters setup and then will be conducted on a tour over the seven major ranges, aver aging more than 2100 acres each in extent, and the seven smaller ranges of from 40 to 160 acres each. "The Squaw Butte station has been established to study the problems confronting the utilization of some 30 million acres of range land in western states," says Wm. A. Shoen- feld, dean and director of agriculture at O. S. C. "It is the only station of its kind devoted to the study of range rehabilitation and utilization for both cattle and sheep, under condi tions applicable to the new Taylor Grazing act administration."
