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.
