Oregon Form Prices
Show January Gains;
Highest Since April
Oregon farmers started the
new year with prices at the high
est level since last April, accord
ing to Mrs Elvera Horrell, ex
tension agricultudal economist
at Oregon State college.
Prices received by farmers in
the state rose nearly 2 percent
from mid-December to mia jan-
ion. Trc Ttnrrfll found in study
ing reports from the U S depart-;
mem 01 agncuuuie. a icaun.
prices
now stand at the same
level as a year ago.
Nationally, farm prices also
gained 2 percent during the last
month to reach an average near
ly 4 percent higher than January
1957. Most of this national up
trend was due to sharply higher
prices on fresh market vege
tables, a result of winter freeze
damage in the South, Mrs Horr
ell said.
Meat animals also moved up
in price, but more moderately.
And these higher price tags more
than offset lower prices received
by farmers last month lor eggs,
dairy products, cotton, and corn.
While prices were rising, the
naritv ndex the governments
yardstick for measuring farm
costs also kept moving upnui.
Mrs Horrell found that this index
edged up again last month to
reach the highest level on record
and 3 percent above a year ago.
As a result, the parity ratio
the ratio between prices receiv
ed and prices paid by farmers,
including taxes, interest, and
wages stood at 82 in mid-January.
This was one point above
mid-December, Mrs Horrell said,
but the same as mid-January ol
1957.
It has been more than five
years since this parity ratio has
topped 100 the point set by
Congress as a "fair" relationship
between prices paid and prices
received by farmers, Mrs Horr
ell pointed out.

Bulletin Issued
True value of a ranch depends
on the pounds of grass it can
produce rather than the number
of acres or livestock on it, ac
cording to a new bulletin pub
lished by the Oregon State col
lege extension service.
A livestock operation is one
that turns grass and other for
age into something that can be
out. And since a hundred pounds
of forage can produce only so
manv nounds of beef or mutton
or wool, it's really the amount
of grass and other forage a ranch
can produce that determines its
value.
Titled, "Grass is the Wealth,"
the new bulletin opens by ex
plaining eight simple facts about
grass that are said to be the
first steps toward planning a
range improvement program.
Value of perennial grasses over
annuals, how top growth depends
on root systems, amount of mois
ture needed to produce a pound
of grass, and how pasturing af
fects grasses are just some 01
the facts covered.
Ranee crass growth is season
al, but livestock eat every day,
the bulletin also points out. This
creates a real problem for ranch
ers who need forage the year-
round. The bulletin neips solve
this problem bv listine seven
ways ranchers can even out the
productive seasons of their past
ures. It then goes on to suggest
ways to improve range lands
east of the Cascades. Balancing
feed consumption with product
ion, use of water holes and salt
to spread grazing,, tricks with
fencing, and range clearing meth
ods are among the seven ways
listed.
The illustrated bulletin was
written by E R Jackman, OSC
extension range management
specialist; W W Chilcote, botany;
D W Hedrick, range manage
ment; Gene Lear, state extension
agent; and D N Hyder, range
conservationist for the agricult
ural research service at the
