Two Farmers Now
Head of Western
Division of AAA
Recent changes in the adminis
trative setup of the agricultural ad
justment administration have put
two farmers, one of them from Ore
on, in charge of the western division
of the AAA.
C. C. Conser of Montana has just
been promotetd to director of the
western division succeeding George
E. Farrell. Since Farrell's transfer to
another division of the department
of agriculture, Conser has been act
ing director. N. E. Dodd of Haines,
Ore., is the new assistant director,
filling the place formerly occupied
by Conser.
Conser, before entering AAA
work in 1933, had been a farmer in
eastern Montana for 23 years. He is
particularly familiar with the wheat
growers' problems and has been in
Oregon a number of times to confer
with leaders here on the wheat pro
gram. Dodd, who owns and operates a
stock farm in Baker county, has
also been active in the AAA pro
gram in this state since 1933, when
he was on the Baker county commit
tee for both the wheat and corn-hog
programs which started that year.
When Oregon had difficulty in ad
justing its hog quota, Dodd took an
active part in the controversy and
was finally placed on a state board
of review, which succeeded in bring
ing about an agreement.
With the inauguration of the new
soil conservation and domestic al
lotment act in 1936, Dodd wjas placed
on the first Oregon AAA committee,
where he has served as chairman
ever since. He was called to Wash
ington frequently to confer in re
gard to national and regional pro
grams, and was recognized by na
tional officials as one of the keenest
and most practical stuttents of the
farm situation.
Dodd began his business life in
Oregon as a pharmacist and operated
drug stores in several eastern Oregon
cities before entering the livestock
business as a buyer, covering the
states of Montana, Idaho and Ore
on. He later acquired land of his
own, on which he has conducted ex
tensive livestock feeding operations.
His familiarity iwith the livestock in
dustry resulted in his taking a ma
jorpart in formulating the present
range improvement program of the
AAA, which has proved so popular
among western livestock men.
Chancellor and
President Join
In KOAC Appeal
Oregon State College If the great
state-owned radio service agency,
KOAC, is lost now through en
croachment of commercial interests
from another state, it probably will
never be regained in its present ef
ficiency, Chancellor F. M. Hunter,
head of the state system of higher
education, warned in adding his
support to the intensive drive to in
form the Oregon congressional dele
gation of the desires of Oregon peo
ple in respect to KOAC.
Senator McNary had informed
Chancellor Hunter that he had been
asked by the chairman of the Fed
eral Communications commission to
prepare a report bearing on the
application of KOY to use the
KOAC wavelength, and that he was
'using for this purpose the commu
nications he was receiving from his
own constituents. Hunter empha
sized the fact that the state board
has the interests of 65,000 Oregon
farm families in mind primarily in
maintaining the station, although it
serves urban audiences as well.
President G. W. Peavy added his
endorsement to the campaign, say
ing KOAC is a vital factor in keep
ing the people informed in the far
flung activities of the state college,
particularly in the field of agricul
tural research and extension. KOAC
must be preserved to serve the peo
ple of Oregon, he declared.
Henry Baker, in the city yester
day from Gooseberry, said the wheat
in his district appeared to be okeh
and that the ground was in good
condition to receive a heavy snow.

Advance Shown in
Higher Education
Service to State
The state-wide service rendered
over the past two years by the six
institutions under the direction of
the Oregon state system of higher
education is emphasized by Chan
cellor F. M. Hunter in his biennial
report, just submitted to the board
and through it to the governor and
legislature.
Chancellor Hunter develops the
following five facts in his report:
"1. Unification among the institu
tions of the state system of higher
eduction has made definite prog
ress. 2. Unprecedented growth has
come to the institutions comprising
the system. 3. Notable improvement
has been made in instruction and
service. 4. The cost, both in the ag
gregate and per student, has been
relatively low. 5. The trend of ad
ministrative costs has been rela
tively downward.
The teaching of youth is the ma
jor responsibility of any system of
higher education, the report points
out, and in the last two years the
institutions have cared for the largest
enrollments in history. In 1938 en
rollment exceeded the pre-depres-sion
peak by 1609 students, or 17
per cent. The increase over 1933 en
rollment was 4140 students, or 61
per cent.
At least half of the budget for the
state institutions of higher learning
is now spent for the purpose of in
creasing the earning power of in
dividuals and developing the re
sources of the state. Of this sum,
approximately $450,000 annually is
spent for the improvement of pro
duction. Emphasis is placed in the
report on the direct service to the
agricultural industry by Oregon
State college, which is described as
"without doubt he most signal ser
vice institution in the northwest in
he develoment of the resources of
this area."
The service work of the Univer
sity of Oregon, through the bureau
of municipal research and through
its relationship to organized jour
nalism, is also emphasized, as is the
great volume of service to the in
digent sick by the University of Ore
gon medical school. The biennium
also marked the return of the nor
mal schools toward an era of in
creased usefulness and success.
The report contains complete fi
nancial summaries of expenditures
over the past two years and the ask
ings for the next two years. If the
budget is granted as requested, the
entire appropriations for the next
biennium will still be IVz per cent
below those of 1929-1930, when com
bined enrollments were 17 per cent
smaller.
Plan Kitchen for Use,
Says OSC Specialist
The first consideration in planning
a kitchen for a Willamette valley
farm house is the needs and habits
of the family using it, points out
Miss Maud Wilson, OSC home econ
omist, in a recent bulletin entitled
"The Willamette Valley Farm Kit
cen." Whether any or all meals are
eaten in the kitchen, whether there
are small children who play in the
kitchen, whether laundering, iron
ing, canning and similar work is
done in the kitchen and similar fac
tors all affect the size and arrange
ment of this important room.
In planning the storage space, Miss
Wilson explains that the method of
storage, whether it be in bins, draw
ers or shelves, should be suited to
the shape, size, weight and character
of the material to be stored.
Each kitchen has several activity
"centers." The sink center, for in
stance, includes the sink itself, drain
boards, space for handling soiled
dishes, as well as foods that require
washing, and space for the garbage
container and kitchen stool. The
stove center includes the stove and
also adjacent unheated surface where
short mixing jobs can be done, as
well as space for fuel, food supplies
and equipment most often used at
the stove. The mixing center pro
vides a surface of the proper height
for preparing bread, pastry, etc.,
space for meat and pastry boards,
and other supplies and equipment
usually used there.
The serving center provides a sur
face for bread cutting, filling dishes
for the table, as well as containers
for bread, cakes, cookies, bread cut
ting board, dishes and other uten
sils and supplies that may be need
ed there. The dining center will have
a table and chairs, a nearby surface

for placing trays, and storage for sil

used at meal times, and articles such
as salt shakers and sugar bowl that
do not require washing or filling
after each meaL
Another desirable arrangement is
the planning center, including a ta
ble or desk for writing, shelves for
books, files and drawers for paper.
Space for a draft cooler is needed,
as well as for a refrigerator, if one
is used.

farm home planning may be had
free from any extension office.
