Hepprter Gazette Times, "Thursday July26; 1951 From The County Agent's Office BY N. C ANDERSON New standards have been es tablished for the growing of certified seed wheat for 1952. The standards now state that a var iety will not be eligible for oer tification if it is planted on land which has grown an indisting uishable variety in the previous two years. This is necessary to protect the variety from volunteer varieties. In the case of Elmar, which is the new variety of much demand for 1951, fall seed cannot be made on a field in which Elgin was harvested in 1950.

These sales have brought ready cash but there have been some hidden losses. Alfalfa hay draws heavily on soil minerals and plant food. At the going price of commer cial fertilizers, it would take more than eleven dollars to buy back the nitrogen, phosphorus and potash taken from the land in the form of alfalfa hay. On the other hand, if this ton of alfalfa was fed on the farm eighty percent of the plant food would be returned to the soil. Using the hay at home would re duce the phosphorus and potash loss by four-fifths, and it will maintain or improve the nitrogen content of the soil.

I n H HHP I Local Growers Visit Canada, Report an Wheat Marketing can and Canadian wheat growers would benefit by working to gether to stabilize the internat ional wheat market, said Don Mc Kinnis of Summerville today, president of the Oregon Wheat Growers League, in a report to the Oregon wheat commission. McKinnis headed a group of Oregon wheat growers which vi sited over 100 Canadian wheat farms and four Dominion experi ment stations in June. The tour was organized by the Wheat League to compare the growing and selling of wheat in Canada with the Pacific Northwest. Can ada is the Northwest's biggest competitor. Henry Baker, lone wheat far mer, in his report summed up the opinions of those making the tour: "We should have closer co operation between the Oregon League and the Canada wheat farmer to maintain a wheat price that is favorable to both countries under the International Wheat agreement." McKinnis reported that most Canadian farmers are happy with the agreement and the loan pro gram of the United States. Another Oregon grower making the tour Sam Cook of Helix, said the Canadian wheat farmer can undersell the U. S. on the market. He said this is because of Can ada's lower standard of living and because Canada's economy largely depends on its grain trade. The Canadian Wheat Board markets all the wheat in Canada c V We are equipped with Hard Of Hearing Aids available without charge to those who desi.e them. Ask for them at the ticket office. Star Theater and most of the farmers are be hind ,it, reported Orville Cuts forth, Lexington grower. Primary purpose of the tour was to find out how much it costs to grow wheat in Canada. But ac cording to the group it was im possible to get an accurate esti mate. The cost per acre would be low but the cost per bushel high because of the many haz ards of insects and weather. For example the saw fly cuts off the wheat head before harvest Sev ere frosts and early snows also take a toll of wheat yields. Oregon growers were impress ed with unusually large and well-equipped experiment sta tions. The personnel seemed to be sincere and able men. All of the Oregon growers mak ing the trip, McKinnis, Cook, Baker, Cutsforth and Mr. and Mrs. Elmer McCoy of Enterprise, have submitted reports to the wheat commission The commis sion will write all the reports into a single report which will be a vailable to anyone on request.
