'67 Crop Outlook
In Oregon Shows
Some Bright Spots
Oregon's farm crop outlook Is
varied this year but the bright
side shows through In many
areas, according to reports com
piled by Mrs, Rivera Ilorrell,
Oregon Stale University Kxten
slon agricultural economist.
A record wheat crop Is In the
making. The strawberry crop,
now being harvested ,1s down
from lust year but well above
the average for the previous five
years.
The wheat crop, as of June 1,
seemed headed for around 41
million bushels more than half
again higher than last year's
near average harvest. The
bumper wheat crop may bring
storage problems, particularly
in the Willamette Vulley.
The li billion bushels of
wheat forecast for the nation
would be nearly a fifth above
last year and more than a
fourth above average.
Oregon's strawberry crop Is
estimated at 89.9 million
pounds, according to U.S.D.A.
estimates. This Is about 8 per
cent under last year but 17 per
cent above the 19C1-C5 average.
Nationally, production is up a
shade from 1G but still about
7 per cent below average.
Hay, pasture, and rye pros
pects are better than a year ago
In Oregon but pxrer nationally.
Warm, favorable weather of
late has Improved the outlook
for vegetables.
Oregon looks for more sweet
cherries this year but fewer of
the sour varieties Mrs. Horrell
noted. The stute's peach and
pear crops are also looking
down from last year.
The main weather problem
for tree fruits was the cold snap
that hurt pollination.
Ken Wrights Buy
Store at Ruggs
Mr. and Mrs. Ken Wright have
bought the stock of the Ruggs
store from Mr. and Mrs. Archie
Ball and will operate the store
as Wright's Country Store.
They will be open from 8 a.m.
until 10 p.m. dally, Including
Sunday, and invite all to stop
In eriroute to recreational spots.
In addition to their regular gro
cery linos, they plan to stock
some hunting anil fishing sup
plies. Ken graduated from Blue
Mountain Community College
in June. His wife Is the former
Judy Smith, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Glenn Smith. Ken's par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Harold
Wright, live at Ruggs and own
the building in which the store
is lix-nted.
The Balls operated the store
for 10 years and it has been a
IHipular stopping place, partic
ularly in hunting season and at
harvest time.

2A-D and 2-4.5-T Supply
Large quantities of 2,4-D and
2,4,5-T are being used by the
military to defoliate the Jungles
of Vietnam.
According to Joe Capizzl, OSU
Extension entomology special
ist, the military is reported to
have preempted all 2,4,5-H pro
duction and may do the same
for 2,4-D.
The two herbicides are report
ed to be critically short in Mid
west and Southern areas of the
United States, according to Cap
izzl. "Other herbicides important
to agriculture are also reported
on allocation although not as
the result of war uses," Capizzl
said. 'These include Atrazine,
Randox, Randox T, Ramrod, Am

Steady Increases
Noted in Farm
ion Costs
7 Korea McCurdy and Gail Bat
ty drove to Corvallis Sunday
where they are enrolled in the
summer session at Oregon State
University.
Production expenses on U. S.
farms have shown an almost
steady rise during the past 15
years. In 19C6, expenses totaled
$33.2 billion, about 8 per cent
more than in 1965, according to
Mrs. Elvera Horrell, Oregon
State University Extension agri
cultural economist
The farmer In most cases does
not have enough muscle In the
market place to pass on the ris
ing cost of producing food to
the consumer, it was noted.
Instead, he must battle high
er costs by continually adopt
ing newer and more efficient
farming practices to keep rais
ing output per man hour, Mrs.
Horrell pointed out He is aid
ed in this task by the agricul
tural research and extension ef
forts of the land grant colleges
of the nation.
Among the rising costs are
farm wage rates which contin
ued to move up again last year,
points out Mrs. HorrelL Aa the
cost of labor gets higher, farm
ers substitute capital in the
form of machinery to do the
work formerly done by people.
Prices of farm machinery
have gone up 3 per cent a year
for the past 15 years, on the
average. Farmers are using
more fertilizer and pesticides to
get the maximum production
from each acre and this also
adds to higher cost of produc
tion, the economist noted.
Taxes are another cost that
continually increases with peo
ple demanding more govern
ment services and the cost of
such service rising, according to
Mrs. Horreii, Also increasing
substantially each year are in
terest payments, insurance and
social security costs. The farm
er who would like to expand
finds farmland values contin
ually increasing aLso.
Farmers In tha fitrura u111
continue to substitute the fruits
of technology for labor she pre
dicted. The number of farmers
will continue to decrease as the
survivors strive to become larg
er and more efficient and at
some point in the game, the
price of goods to the consumer
must reflet the increased cost to
the farmer.
