ANDERSON Morrow county wheat growers were in popular demand in Pen dleton last week as committee assignments were made by the Oregon Wheat Growers League Executive Committee meeting for the first time in 1963. Of the seven mainstanding com mittees, Mrs. Milton Morgan, lone, was chosen to head the domestic wheat utilization; Ro bert Jepsen, the marketing and transportation; Walter Jacobs, public relations; with Louis Carlson named as vice-president of federal agricultural programs. In addition several of our grow ers were named to special com mittees that will be active dur ing the year. Milton Morgan, lone, is first vice-president of the league eleoaed at the annual meeting in Portland last Novem ber. One of the leading discus sions at the executive commit tee meeting was that of making a definite recommendation to go to legislature relative to 2, 4-D useage. Morrow county recommenda tions drafted at our December 20 meeting were considered. Briefly, those adopted by the Milton-Freewater-Oregon Wheat League Growers at their De cember 27 meeting and approv ed by the executive committee were: (1) that the use isopropyl ester of 2, 4-D and its volatility equivalents be restricted in the state of Oregon for 2 years, (2) that the use of butyl ester of 2, 4-D be restricted in the present secondary restricted area of East Umatilla county chemical control district. (3) that no spraying of 2, 4-D be done when wind velocity exceeds 15 m.p.h., (4) that research by.OSU on the 2, 4-D drift damage problem be continued, (5) that government agencies using 2, 4-D be required to pay the Oregon tax to the research project, (6) that the Washington State Department of Agriculture be asked to restrict the use of isropropyl ester of 2, 4-D in Benton, Columbia, Franklin and Walla Walla coun ties in the state of Washington, (7) that OSU be asked to ex tend its educational activities relative to the proper use of pes ticides including weedicides. Dates for the 1963 annual meeting were set as December 2, 3 and 4 with Portland to again be the site of the annual meet ing. Hit High Production Mark Seven Yorkshire sows on the Kenneth Smouse ranch near lone evidently have not heard USDA predictions that pig pro duction will be down in 1963. Recently seven sows farrowed 79 live pigs which is a fraction over an average of 11 pigs per sow. This is an excellent farrowing percentage in any one's "pig parlor." Wheat Acreage Diversion Explained By Freeman Everyone has been reading about the 1964 wheat program and what the regulations might be. While there have been a lot of articles published in farm papers, farm magazines, daily newspapers and other publica tions, some excerpts from an ad dress given by Secretary lree man at a meeting of national farm organizations and cooper atives might bo of some value to those who have been con cerned. Farm acreage allotments In 1964 will be only 10 percent smaller than in 1963. Most in dividual farm allotments for the 1964 crop will be the same as allotments for the VJb2 crop. Each farmer will know his farm allotment before the referendum it mav be identical to the allotment he had in 1962. Diversion payments for the it) oercent reduction in the allot ment will be at thirty (30) per cent of the support level times the normal yield on the farm. If a farmer s normal yieia is bushels per acre and his county support level is $2.00, then his diversion payment on an acreage equal to 10 percent of his 1963 allotment wlil be $15 per acre. A voluntary acreage diversion program, similar to the pro crams for the 1962 and 1963 wheat crop, will permit any farmer to reduce his plantings up to 20 percent below his allot ment. This voluntary program is over by about 150 million expected to reduce wheat carry bushels in the 1964 marketing year. Pavment rates for the volun tary program will be at fifty (5D) percent or tne support levei $25 per acre on a farm with a normal yield of 2i busneis per care and a national average county support rate of $2.00 per bushel. Price support for wheat, in cluding marketing certification, will be $2.00 per bushel (nat ional average). This level of sup port will apply for about 925 million bushels, 86 percent of the expected crop of 1,070 mil lion bushels. Price support for non certificate wheat will be an nounced later, and will be about $1.30 per bushel. Advance payments will be made at the time of signup, for both the first 10 percent di HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursda?, January 24, 1963 MEM NEWS version, and for the voluntary diversion. We hope to be able to author ize production of special crops, such as safflower, sunflower and castor beans, on the diverted acreage. However, the 1964 grow ing season Is a long way off. Announcements on these crops must be delayed for some time, since the law provides they must not be in surplus if they are grown on diverted acreage. Wheat production on feed grain acreage will be author izedif there is a free grain program in effect for 1964. This provision not only will allow wheat to move more freely in the market, but also will provide more flexibility for the farmer in the management of his farm. It will be a major step towards these two goals which all of us share. Marion D. Thomas, agricult ural economist. OSIT. sava that without approval in the referen dum, the becretary sees 1964 wheat prices at about $1.00 a bushel, more acres, more bu shels, less farm income, less spending by farmers, internat ional pnmtilipntinns and nnfnv. orable impacts on feed grain growers ana ieea gram users. Mel Smith Dies Suddenly Livestock growers who have had occasion to meet and know Mel Smith, District Agent, U. S. Fish and Wildlife, while attend ing annual and committee meet ings of our livestock association will be saddened to hear of his untimely death. Mel passed away Saturday, January 12, af ter working all day on their small ranch out of Portland. He had only recently had a com plete checkup and pronounced in very good physical condit ion, Tax Material Available Dr. Grant Blanch, a partici pant in the tax panel held as a part of the Livestock Assoc iation annual meeting on Fri day, January 11, has written that the afternoon discussion was enjoyable. He sent material and the reproduction of the charts that he presented as a part of the panel. Someone asked him for this material, the name of whom he has no record. If this person is among our read ers we have the material for them. Angus Sale Set for Saturday An opportunity that has not been presented before in this area is a sale sponsored by the Oregon Angus Association to be heid this Saturday, January 26, at the Umatilla County fair grounds at Ilermiston. The sale starts at 12:30 p.m. Forty-three Angus bulls and 18 females will Ik; offered from leading breed ers of Idaho, Washington and Oregon.

These shortcourses have been practical in that quite a number of per sons have been trained in the principles of sheep shearing and with some practice and exper ience have been providing quite a service to their community in shearing sheep especially farm flocks that we have so much trouble in getting sheared. At the same time they have been performing this service they have had an opportunity to make some good wages. Ronald Baker, former 4-H club member, now a feedlot op erator near Hermiston was the first Morrow county boy to en roll in one of the first sheep shearing schools offered in Ore gon. Over the years a number of boys from Morrow county have taken this training and have been available for shear ing sheep. While none of them have taken ud sheep shearing as a profession here, I heard just the other day oi a ooy irom Wheeler county who had taken this training and who has been doing some shearing there had left for Australia to work with a sheep shearing crew. We have not had anyone attend tnese schools recently, however there may be someone interested now. Recently announced are schools for 1963. There will be four held beginning March 11 at Corvallis, three of the schools to be held simultaneously there; the last to be held at Union on March 25 and 26. We have en rollment application forms at this office for anyone who might be interested.
