Wool Growers To
Keep Last Year's
Officers In 1941
Lakeview Oregon woolgrowers
concluded one of their most suc
cessful annuol conventions here last
week with the reelection of last
year's officers and the adoption of a
series of resolutions on various top
ics vital to the sheep industry.
Mac Hoke, Pendleton, will contin
ue as president; Wayne Stewart,
John Day, as vice-president, and
Walter Holt, Pendleton, as secretary-treasurer.
One new feature that attracted
much interest this year was a round
table or panel discussion near the
end of the session, on the subject
of "War and Its Effect Upon the
Wool Market." E. L. Potter, head
of the agricultural economics de
partment at Oregon State college,
led this, with President Hoke, R. A.
Ward, head of the Pacific Wool
Growers cooperative; J. T. Alexan
der, a Portland woolen goods manu
facturer, and J. A. Gebson, a private
buyer, all participating.
Among the facts brought out in
this discussion was that the gov
ernment estimates that it will take
an average of 135 pounds of grease
wool to outfit one soldier in the
present preparedness drive. Already
the government has purchased 160,
000,000 pounds of wool to care for
the needs of the first million re-
' emits.
The British wool brought in from
Australia to be held in this country
for safe keeping and possible later
purchase, was discussed with gen
eral agreement that it has been sur
rounded by enough safeguards so
that it should not seriously affect
American prices, though it may
serve to keep them from going ex
cessively high. Some trouble after
the present defense effort was fore
seen for the wool producer.
This type of program number was
well received by the members of
the association who gathered near
the platform and took part in the
discussion by directing many ques
tions to the members of the "panel."
Dr. J. P. Stewart, Eye-Sight Spe
cialist of Pendelton, Oregon, will be
at the HEPPNER HOTEL on WED
NESDAY, DECEMBER 18th.

O. S. C. experiment station.
This fungous disease of blackcaps
has been responsible for consider
able damage in western Oregon in
recent years, and many inquiries
are being received at the experi
ment station concerning its control.
It also attacks some varieties of red
raspberry, such as Latham, Lloyd
George, and Chief, though it sel
dom if ever affects the Cuthbert
seriously under weather conditions
prevailing in western Oregon. Lime
sulphur is recommended as a dor
mant spray and Bordeaux mixture
after the new canes have started to
gow.

Wheat: League Chooses
Continued from First Page
Recommendation was made that
fullest possible use be made of Bon
neville and Grand Coulee power and
that the REA program be pushed
wherever possible.
The league went on record as
staunchly acking the national de
fense program. The answer to what
could eb done in this respect was
given by the assistant secretary of
agriculture, who said the wheat-
growers had already done their part
by having produced a large surplus
against emergencies, and bv effect
ing an organization through which
control of the production program
could at all times be regulated.
