IRVIN MANN SPEAKS OPTIMISTICALLY FOR OREGON'S
Irvin Mann,- Director of
Agriculture for Oregon had
something of a cheerful note for
farmers as he spoke of export
possibilities of agricultural pro
ducts at the Heppner-Morrow
County Chamber of Commerce
Monday.
He said it wasn't the Russian
wheat sale that caused the grain
shortage but a whole new
economic ball game. The situa
tion was there "we just didn't
recognize it". All of a sudden
there's a whole world to feed not
just a half. All of a sudden
there's a world protein shortage
and money to buy it. The
midwest farmers find it unbe
lieveable that soy beans are
selling for $7.99 a bushel over
twice what it was selling a year
ago. "Affluence and not "infla
tion skyrocketed the price",
Irvin said.
In talking about the meat
boycott, he said that farmers
need encouragement to grow
more. And they are. Feed lots

number of females going into

Homemakers
Plan
Mini-College
Plans for sponsoring a mini
college for women at Oregon
Stale University in the summer
of 1974 were approved by the
Oregon Extension Homemakers
Council at its annual meeting on
the OSU campus last week
(May 1-3).
In a poll of the more than 600
women attending the home-
makers' conference, a strong
majority favored the concept of
a three - or four-day college
offering in-depth studies of one
or more topics. Creative writ
ing, art, consumerism, taxa
tion, family life, housing and
family finance were among
suggested short course subjects
that might be selected by
participants.
The idea of offering short
courses for intensive study is a
major change from traditional
meet ings of the Council , accord
ing to Mrs. Robert Sorber of
Portland, OEHC community
relations committee chairman.
While a variety of topics
related to family living and
community life have been the
focus of visiting speakers and
OSU faculty at previous annual
meetings, exposure to individ
ual issues and topics was
necessarily brief. Programs
featured one-hour daytime ses
sions on selected subjects and
speakers on general topics at
evening dinner meetings.
The Oregon Extension Home
makers Council is an outgrowth
of a family living conference
held at then-Oregon State Col
lege in 1931. The college's home
economics teaching and exten
sion staff conducted the confer
ence, later called the Conf,r
ence for the Study of Home
Interest.
Mrs. Sorber says final ar
rangements for the mini-college
will be developed by the Council
board in collaboration with OSU
home economics extension staff
members in November. While
the Council w ill be the sponsor,
she emphasized, the college
type conference will be open to
all women of the state.

A wounded Curlew was found

In Russia
A Trade mission went to
Russia in January to determine
if a Trade Fair could be
meaningful. Irvin said he spent
10 days in Moscow. Greater
Russia is one of 15 Republics
making up the huge USSR. It is
an enormous country and they
don't look up to bigness. They
are the biggest. Their Trade
Unions deal in commodities
muck like they do in capitalistic
countries.
There's two kinds of farming.
Farm Coops have a goal. Up to
Ihis amount they sell at the
slate price but any excess they
can sell through the public
market for a better price.
Farmers who have postage
siamp plots may sell theirs also
on the public markets.
The State farms sell every
thing they raise at state stores.
Governor McCall will head a
trade mission going to Russia
next October. They will have
wiih them manufacturers of
heavy equipment and technical
people in trade processes such
as the freeze-dry production.

Wheat Shipment
April 1973 saw the 2nd largest
month for wheat shipment out
of Portland. A total of
391.133,000 tons were shipped.
This was second to Dec. 1971
right after the dock strike was
settled. Most of this was going
lo Japan, Korea, India and
Taiwan and Pakistan and was
soft white wheat. None went to
Russia because they want red
hard wheat.
Forseeing the shortage of
wheat. Irvin and Governor
McCall both asked Secretary of
Agriculture Butz to lift the
restrict ions on wheat before fall
planting time in Oregon. This
was finally done but too late for
Oregon to share in this expand
ed agricultural production. The
United States is out of govern
ment reserves. There will be 43
million new wheat acres this
year due to the restrictions on
wheal planting being lifted.
In closing Irvin Mann said
"Agriculture faces a demand
ing and decisive period. How we
respond determines the role we
will have in the One World".

for lone Auction
chairman of the lone Auction,
says the supply of items on hand
for this years sale is really
impressive. He remarked there
is no way to predict just how
much will be available because
some people donate items just a
day or two before the sale.
However, there has been a good
steady flow of items coming in
since last year's sale and he
predicts if the trend continues,
this year might exceed any
other before it.
He points out there is free
pickup year around. If anyone
has items they would like to
donate to the lone United
Church of Christ for this annual
sale, a phone call to 422-7254 will
bring a truck or pickup to
receive them. Mr. Pettyjohn is
