Vegetable Study Extension
Unit Topic for May
By ESTHER KIRMIS
Once vegetables were regarded
in the same light as sulfur and
molasses good for you, but def
initely not "Good." Not so today.
Vegetables have become
Clamour foods; they have inter
esting flavors, textures, and
shapes. Their versatility makes
them invaluable.
Extension unit women will
find this true when they study
"Ways with Western Vegetables,"
for their May extension unit pro
ject. Using a bulletin prepared by
Ruth N. Klippstein, former OSU
extension nutrition specialist, J
will be giving training to 14
project leaders on April 26 in
Irrigon (Adams home) and April
27 at the Heppner fair annex.
Such information as choosing
and using western vegetables
and favorite sauces will be
stressed.. These project leaders
will, "in turn, give this infor
mation to their local women in
May.
It's interesting to know that
Northwest farms are famous
throughout the nation for high
finality vegetables. Thousands
of people are employed in rais
ing, packing, and distributing
vegetables.

Over 21,0(10,000 cases of vege

This represents 10 of the total

Washington and Oregon pro

Certain crops of each state

takes pride in Blue Lake green
beans, Washington in their
many fine peas and who hasn't

Release Of New
Spring Wheat,
ldaed-59, Told
A new improved spring wheat
strain, ldaed-59, that is resis
tant to stem rust has been re
leased jointly by Oregon State
University and University of
Idaho agricultural experiment
stations.
Idaed-59 is expected to replace
the old Idaed variety that is
susceptible to stem rust, a dis
ease often causing serious dam
age in the spring wheat pro
ducing areas, reports Wilson H.
Foote, OSU research agronomist.
Certified seed is being increas
ed as rapidly as possible and
quantities of high quality seed
should be available for com
mercial plantings in the spring
of 1963, it was announced.
"Idaed-59 is recommended for
those areas where Idaed is al
ready known to be a good wheat
in most years," Foote said. This
includes spring wheat areas of
the Columbia Basin, particularly
in Union and Wallowa counties,
and scattered areas of Idaho.
It is not expected to replace
nrnupnt acreace nlanted to Lem-
I hi or Federation spring wheat
or areas where auapieu winier
wheats are recommended.
The new white spring wneai
strain equals the the high qual
ity and yield of the old Idaed.
In addition to having stem rust
resistance, it is also resistant
to mildew and stripe rust.
Idaed-59 was developed main
ly in Idaho but has been tested
extensively in spring wheat
areas of Oregon during the past
two years.
The new strain also carries
the characteristics of stiff straw
and early maturity that has
made the parent variety, Idaed',
a preferred spring wheat in
some areas of the Northwest.
Idaed-59 performed well in
Northwest milling tests and is
considered a special wheat for
certain millers due to its good
properties for cake flours.

OREGON SgW
Testing Trucks Move
Into Eastern Oregon
The state department of agri
culture's weights and measures
test trucks have moved into
eastern Oregon for the annual
check of metered trucks, and
warehouse, vehicle, livest o c k
and other scales.
Five of the state's fleet of
six large test trucks will be
workine in eastern Oregon most
of the time until September, says
Walter B. Steele, supervisor 01
weights and measures program.
Steele says heavy duty scales
and petroleum meter testing in
western Oregon has been com
pleted until late fall, with con
demnations running slightly less
than a year ago.
Brand Inspection
Hearing Slated
A reconsideration of the State
nonaptinonr rf Atrrieulturo's re
cently promulgated cattle brand
rule calling for animal brand
inspections at each change of
ownership is scheduled in May,
according to a letter received
from State Director J. A. Short,
by Representative JranK weatn
erford, chairman of the legis
bitivp interim subcommittee on
state administrative law.
Weatherford had requested the
department to reopen the issue
iml hnlrl arlrlitinnal hear.n2S
on the new brand inspection pro
gram which he sain nau ap
proached very controversial pro
portions in Gilliam and Morrow
counties. Weatherford said a
number of stockmen had pro
tested the change, declaring it
to be both a nuisance and un
necessary expense burden.
Director Short announced that
u,n hoarinac wnnlrl be held in
Condon on May 31; Ontairo, May
8; and Salem, May m. .
The rule revision calling for
brand inspections at every
change of ownership was made
by the Slate Department of Ag
riculture in compliance wuh rec
ommendations of the Oregon
Cattlemen's association and en
dorsement by the Livestock ad
visory board. The rule had been
sought by many leading cattle
producers of eastern Oregon as a
stock theft preventive measure.
Weatherford said he was con
tacting the livestock associations
in his district and other interest
ed groups, in order to obtain ex
pressions from them on the rule
change. The present rule has
been set up on an experimental
basis, Weatherford said, and
automatically terminates in 1963.
The rule could then be enacted
into law or discarded as exper
ience gained from the pilot pro
gram would indicate, Weather
ford concluded.
