Gaines, former plant breeder at Washington State college during 1913-14, is a bearded common type head with white chaff and soft to semi hard white grain. It is classed as a semi-dwarf, easily ranging from 6 to 18 in ches shorter than Omar and Brevor. In the Morrow County nursery it grew 4-8 inches short er than these varieties. It has a good shatter resistance, thrash es well and resists kernal crack ing when thrashed better" than Omar and Brevor, It Is a high yielding variety, considerably higher thnn Omar and Brevor in nearly all varietal trials, how ever, Its yield has been poor com paratively at the Eightmile nurs ery here in Morrow county. It re sists cxcellantly, it has a higher test weight per bushel than Omar but slightly lower than Brevor. Growers were cautioned against deep seeding because of the poorer seedling emergence than Omar. Winter hardiness Is very similar to Omar and Brevor and It has good smut resistance and stripe resistance is equal to Brevor, notably more than Omar. It Is however, as susceptible as Omar and Brevor to foot and root rots. Milling and baking trials by the Western wheat quality laboratory and cereal chemists of commercial mills In the Pa cific Northwest show that the variety milled better than Brevor, but notably inferior to Omar. Baking tests show good charac teristics for pasteries. Gaines, came from an original cross of Norln 10 (a Japanese semi-dwarf wheat I and Brevor made In the grifiihouM-a at Pullman In 1919 A ele-tlon from this ctom was subsequently cronned with a "! tr" (M-lectlon of Brevor; and In turn a seleeiion from this cru was rruMed with Burt in 1952. The present variety I selection number 9, made In VMi. In I9S8 it was grown In the yield nur ery for the first time at Pullman. Wlth over 6.300 bushels of foundation sred In Washington, Oregon and Idaho, distributed for Increase this fall stocks for gen eral seeding In the fall of 19C2 should be good. Rate of seeding are recommended at 30 pound Ier acre or lens. Morrow county's allocation will seed approximat cly 275 acres. The allocation committee was happy with the general dlstrl bution Into most all rommunl ties In the county. They pointed out that this would not only pro vide for a check on the adap tability of the new variety un der many different conditions but also would simplify distri bution next fall. Those who re ceived the wheat which was dis tributed on the basis of from 5 to 10 bushels per grower were, L. L. Houghton, David Baker, Lewis Carlson and Gar Swan- son, lone; Kenneth Peck, James Peck, William J. Doherty and Tad Miller, Lexington; Gerald Swaggart, Leonard Rill, Ray mond French. Fritz Cutsforth, Melvin Moyer, Kenneth Turner and Kenneth Cutsforth, Heppner. Cost of the original seed was $12 per hundred. SAFETY SAM SAYS: The man on a tractor has Just as much right to half the high way as the man In art automo bile, even when there Is a smooth, broad shoulder along side. But standing upon your rights somehow seems less im portant when you contemplate the suffering and high cost of serious injury and the sadness of death. A smooth, broad shoulder bordering a high-speed highway is a safer place for a tractor operator to be when the highway is carrying a volume of fast moving auto traffic. It Isn't primarily a question of who is right but of who stays alive. And even the most reasonable and considerable of motorists will ap preciate the courtesy thus displayed.

The effect of property tax atlon on Oregon agriculture will be high on the agenda," the rep resentative from the 22nd con gressional district stated.

"The only way we can arrive at better legislation Is by learn ing the facts from those closest to the problems," he explained in stressing the necessity of farmers participating in the com mittee hearings.
