On her return to Hepp- Total Crops To Be Average; Wheat Up Improvement in wheat and some other early crops nearly offset a decline in a few late crops during July so that the general crop pro duction prospect early in August was that the total in the United States will be about average, accord ing to the monthly report on the agricultural situation just released by the O.S.C. agricultural extension service. Considering stocks carried over, supplies of most crops will be ample, the report states. Wheat crop prospects improved during July and the production es timate was boosted to 761 million bushels which is slightly more than last year and slightly above the 10 year average. Data given in the re port indicate that a further increase in the already large wheat surplus will be registered in the carryover figures next July 1. The expected increase in stocks is estimated on the basis of 675 mil lion bushels needed for domestic uses, leaving 86 million bushels out of this year's crop, and 280 million carried over from last year avail able for export or carry-over next year. Exports during the 1939-40 marketing season amounted to only 46 million bushels and the prospects for wheat shipment overseas from the United State appear even poorer than a year ago. Domestic prices are being supported by the government loan program and are at a high level compared with world wheat prices. Rather complete information is given in the report on the wheat market outlook for 1941-42 as an aid to growers in planning crop production in 1941. The report, which is available free from county agents or direct from the college, also con tains a review of the general farm price situation, with data on prices received and paid by farmers. A national wheat acreage allot ment of 62 million acres for 1941 was announced some time ago. Rates of payment under the AAA program will be determined and announced ner Wednesday she brought her sis ter, Miss Hazel Ball with her, and drove her on to Pendleton from where Miss Ball will leave for Baker to teach school the coming term. Mr. Logie Richardson, accompan ied by Dick Wilkinson, left Wednes day for San Francisco, where he will meet his wife, who has been there for several weeks. They will visit their daughter, Mrs. Oscar 01 sen and two children, and return in about ten days. Miss Frances Wilkinson returned home Monday from San Francisco where she spent a two weeks vaca tion, including visits at the fair. after all national acreage allotments on other crops are available, ac cording to a release just received from Washington. Oregon Farmers Urged to Grow War Crops Irrigation will help many Oregon farmers to "cash in" on market opportunities afforded by European war conditions, according to a sum mary of future market prospects given by William A. Schoenfeld, dean and director of agriculture at Oregon State college, during the eleventh annual western Oregon ir rigation tour held on the experiment station farms. In some parts of the state and for some products increased acreages of certain crops will be possible, al though in others higher production will depend upon increasing the yields of present acreages either by additional moisture or other means, he said. War conditions have reduced or entirely eliminated the importation of many of the seeds and other spe cialty crops for which Oregon is ideally adapted, Dean Schoenfeld pointed out. He mentioned specifi cally the various grass and clover seeds, field pea and vetch seed, both seed, flower bulbs, hops, filberts, fiber flax and seed flax, sugar beet and even less common products such as poppy and mustard seed, pyrethrum, peppermint oil and cer tain foreign types of cheese. By stressing the production of these crops in the immediate fu ture, Dean Schoenfeld said, it will be possible for Oregon farmers to compensate somewhat for the lost markets for staple crops caused by this same war. At the same time Oregon farmers will thus be able to supply other farmers in the United States with essential seed no longer obtainable in usual quantities abroad. "Preparedness involves much more than merely military defenses," he added, "and this is an important step in providing America with es sential agricultural products." Adaptation of crop systems to make full use of irrigation was ex plained by a number of specialists in the course of the tour. Saturday Final Day for Wheat Insurance Farmers who have not completed wheat insurance applications and who desire to do so are warned by the local AAA office that Saturday, August 31, is the final day for doing so. Up to last night 40,000 acres of next year's crop had been signed. Payment of indemnities due to curtailed production this year had totalled 20,000 bushels up to last night, reported Merle Cummings, secretary. The August 31 deadline applies to any farm growing fall wheat. If a farm grows only spring wheat in surance may be taken as late as February 28 next. FRIft SAT.
