Unusual Season
Brings Problems
In Fall Seeding
The hot, dry summer in western
Oregon has disrupted many estab
lished cropping plans, making neces
sary readjustments this fall, and in
eastern Oregon the prevalence of
trashy summer fallow is bringing
some new seeding priblems, points
out Dr. D. D. Hill, associate agron
omist at the Oregon experiment
station, in a recent broadcast over
KOAC.
Most winter and spring seedings
of red clover failed in the valley this
year, except where irrigation was
available. In many cases the logical
legume to plant on fields where red
clover died out is Austrian winter
peas, especially where a cash crop
is wanted, says Dr. Hill. Where a
hay crop is desired, common vetch
offers the best possibility, although
vetch used for hay does not serve
as a soil building legume in the ro
tation. Fall-sown barley could fill a more
important place in western Oregon
now that a more satisfactory va
riety has been developed, believes
Dr. Hill. Last fall the experiment sta
tion distributed a limited amount of
seed of a new variety, Santiam. It
is sufficiently winter hardy for west
ern Oregon, and has proved highly
productive on most soils. A small
amount of seed is available in most
valley counties, in addition to a lim
ited supply available from the ex
periment station.
An important factor in the hand
ling of trashy summer fallow is the
necessity of weed control, experience
has shown. Where the fall is dry and
it is not possible to kill weeds before
seeding, it is highly important to get
the wheat started quickly. This is
done sometimes by planting deeply
enough with a single disc drill to get
the seed down to moisture so that it
will germinate promptly before the
weeds sprout in the surface layer.
If the wheat cannot be planted
down to moisture, Hill believes it is
best to wait until fall rains germin
' ate the weed seeds, so that the first
crop of weeds may be killed. In
some cases, it is even desirable to
leave a field for spring planting if
other methods of weed control can
not be followed.
Trailer Kitchen
Taken on Round
Of Fairs by OSC
The traveling kitchen exhibit of
the Oregon State college extension
service which was viewed last year
by some 19,244 men and women in
12 counties of the state, is being
shown again this year at fairs and
other events in 14 counties.
The trailer kitchen represents a
modern kitchen, at moderate cost,
designed to meet the needs of an
average farm family, and contains
many valuable sugestions on con
struction of built-ins and kitchen
arrangement for families planning
to build or remodel, or perhaps just
to improve the present kitchen. It
was planned, designed and con
structed through the cooperation of
the agricultural extension service,
home economics research and the ag
ricultural engineering department at
0. S. C. Mrs. Virginia Schneider, as
sistant in the home economics ex
tension service, is in charge of the kit
chen at the various demonstrations.
The kitchen was shown at the 4-H
fair at Cottage Grove August 26 and
27. The September schedule is as
follows: County fair, Monmouth,
Sept 2; state fair, Salem, Sept 5-11;
county-wide day, Newberg, Sept 12;
county-wide day, Hood River, Sept
14; county fair, Tygh Valley, Sept
16, 17, 18; county-wide day, Arling
ton, Sept. 19; county-wide days at
Heppner, Sept 20; Milton, Sept 22
and Pendleton, Sept 23; fair, Her
miston, Sept. 24; fair, Moro, Sept
25; county-wide day, The Dalles,
Sept. 26; Bonneville, Sept 27; and
county-wide day, Oregon City, Sept
29.
"Creating Safer Communities," a
booklet prepared by the Oregon de
partment of state in cooperation with
the National Conservation bureau,
has been received and will be used
during the coming winter in con
nection with the organization of
community safety councils, accord
ing to Secretary of State Earl Snell.
Facts for Drivers
From the office of Earl W. Snell,
Secretary of State.
One of the most valuable traffic
signals from the standpoint of the
highway engineer is the flashing
beacon, whether it be red or amber.
The value of this signal, however,
rests entirely upon the degree of ob
servance which motorists accord it.
The two chief reasons for its im
portance are its high visibility due
to its bright, intermittent flashes,
and the fact that it causes only mo
mentary stopping at intersections
where traffic is too light to warrant
a periodic signal.
While more drivers treat the red
and amber beacons as though they
carried the same message, this is not
the case. The amber beacon says, in
effect, "Dangerous intersection be
on guard." Motorists should approach
such intersections slowly, and pro
ceed through them with caution.
The red beacon, however, says,
"Dangerous intersection STOP be
fore crossing." These beacons nor
mally are placed so as to protect
streams of fast traffic from side
traffic interruptions, and drivers
who enter such a street without
first stopping endanger both them
selves and motorists on the through
street.
Installation of flashing red bea
cons at several intersections on Port
land's east side cut accidents at those
intersections nearly 75 per cent with
in three months after their place
ment, thus proving their merit- when
scientifically located and properly
observed.

Grain Situation
Slows Recovery
In Farm Returns
With business conditions and the
demand outlook for farm products
showing some improvement, the
long, sharp decline in the general
level of farm prices was reversed
during July, says the current month
ly review of the agricultural situa
tion by the O. S. C. extension ser
vice. The upturn in the general farm
price index in Oregon was from 61
per cent of the 1926-1930 average
level to 63 per cent.
Improvement in the farm price
situation was rather general, except
grains, and occurred despite some
what better crop yield prospects over
the country generally. Compared
with April, 1937, however, which
marked the farm price peak of re
cent years, the Oregon index in July,
1938, at 63 was down 30 points, and 24
points under July last year.
Sharply lower prices for wheat
and the feed grains and materially
lower prices for butterfat, wool and
lambs account largely for the sharp
decline in the Oregon farm price in
dex from April, 1937, to June, 1938.
With respect to crop prospects, the
report says that there will be a gen
eral abundance of food crops this
year, while the supply of feed grains
and hay in prospect is large enough
in most parts of the country to pro
vide plenty of feed for animal pro
duction. More detailed information is given
in the circular relative to potatoes,
beans, wheat, feed grains, hay, fruit
and truck crops, and other items.
The report, which also contains
the annual mid-summer wheat out
look report of the extension service,
is available from county agents or
direct from the college. It contains
several statistical tables and charts
pertaining to. the wheat situation
and data on farm prices, costs and
demand.
Gasoline sales in Oregon during
the first seven months of this year
reached the record-breaking total
of 126,485,864 gallons, according to
Secretary of State Earl Snell. The
tax on this gallonage amounted to
$6,324,293.20.
