The Willow Creek Little
League closed their summer
play of games with the All
Star team playing ln Pendleton

Cooncr emphasized that 'The
time Is right, water resources
are at hand, and the land is
there. Now It is up to the people
of Morrow county to decide what

pointed out, also, that much of
the land is suitable for agri
cultural purposes.
Various procedures for return
ing the land to private owners
were discussed. Among these
were for the county to take over
for redistribution on a bid basis,
or findlne individuals who would
contract with the county to pur
chase the land from the govern

from the Individual persons and
industries interested.
It was also noted that part
of the land might be open to
homesteading. At the present
time the county receives only
five percent of the income of
homesteading, but efforts are be
ing made in Washington to get
this raised to 50 percent.

Farm Price Trends
Listed for Oregon
Following a seasonal pattern,
Oregon farm prices dipped one
percent last month, reports Mrs
Elvira Horrell, extension agri
cultural economist at Oregon
State College. However, farm
prices in the state still ended
up the highest for the month of
June since 1953.
Following national trends,
both crop and livestock products
in Oregon turned down at mid
June, Mrs Horrell found as she
studied reports from the U S
department of agriculture. While
livestock fell to about 4 percent
under a year ago, crop prices
remained some 6 percent above
a year earlier.
Lower price tags on beef cattle,
calves, sheep, and fresh vege
tables contributed most to the
drop in Oregon farm prices, Mrs
Horrell said. Grain prices showed
little change, while hogs, lambs,
broilers, and turkeys went up a
trifle.
Meanwhile, prices paid by
farmers over the nation moved
down a shade from May to June,
but still average about one per
cent higher than a year ago. As
a result, the ratio between prices
received and prices paid by
farmers, including interest, tax
es, and wage rates, now stands
at 81 a loss of one point for
the month and 4 points below
a year ago, Mrs Horrell said.
Mr and Mrs Lesta Hall of
San Jose, Calif are visiting at the

Mrs Ethel Zelmantz.

Jimmy and Jerry of California
visited last week at the home of
her sister-in-law and husband,
Mr and Mrs Archie Padberg.
