sources of our soil and water;

and development of our good earth and clean waters are of vital
concern to all our peole, both rural and urban.
Oregon needs to continue its program of coordination of effort to
improve, protect and develop these resources to support the
program of the Oregon Association of Soil and Water Conservation
Districts and other groups working to improve the quality of our
environment.
' Oregon's policy of promoting conservation and development of
its soil, water and all natural resources to control floods, enhance
wildlife, and promote the welfare of our people is nationally known,
and recognized as one of the leaders. We have an annual
opportunity and responsibility to renew our pledge for
conservation, to recognize the efforts of conservation groups, and

High Lakes Fishing
Promising
Oregon anglers can look
forward to some excellent
fishing Saturday. May 26. when
the high lakes and coastal
stream season opens.
Game Commission biologists
report fish in the high lakes
wintered very well because of a
relatively light snow pack and
unusually mild winter condi
tions. Warm and dry spring weather
has already melted snow on
access roads to many lakes
which normally do not become
accessible to fishermen until
much later in the year.
Hatchery trucks have been
rolling for the past several
weeks carrying legal rainbow
and cutthroat trout to streams,
in spite of low water conditions,
should provide excellent fishing
for the opening weekend.

to Report Fuel
Shortages to ASCS
County Offices
WASHINGTON. May 24 - To
help assure that farmers don't
run short of fuel this season, the
l .S Department of Agriculture
il'SDAi is asking farmers to:
-Report any shortages to local
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service (ASCS
office, and
-I'se fuel conserving methods
with tractors, trucks and other
machine-driven equipment.
The Department since Feb
ruary has been monitoring the

farm fuel supply situation
through its more than 2.8IHI
ASCS county offices. Any short
ages are reported immediately
through stale ASCS office to
Washington. In additon. a
reeular farm fuel situation
report is prepared for Secretary
of Agriculture Earl L. Butz
every Wednesday.
Any problems that arise are
forwarded immediately to the
Office of Oil and Gas (OOG). U.
S. Department of the Interior,
for solution under the voluntary
allegation program. William E.
Simon. Chairman of the Presi
dent's Oil Policy Committee
and Deputy Secretary of the
Treasury, has pointed out that
farmers and the food industry
have priority in getting petrol
eum products. To assure con
tinuous coordination with Ih?
OOG. ASCS has loaned it a
professional employee.
ASCS said some suppliers
have not been able to meet farm
customers' needs fully. Offic
ials said this is partly because
independent and cooperative
fuel producers and marketers
have not been able to obtain
enough supplies.
The current planting period is
critical to farm production.
Officials involved do follow-ups
on shortage reports to make
certain that corrective action is
being taken.
USDA has been working with
the Department of Treasury
and the Interior to encourage
farm fuel conservation prac
tices. Farmers can conserve
fuel use by keeping tractors
tuned and using minimum
tillage practices, for example.
USDA officials also urged
farmers not to buy more fuel
than they need in the near
future. Officials stressed that
equitable distribution is neces
sary if all farmers are to have
enough fuel.
Public hearings will be held
June 11-1.1 in Washington by the
Treasury Department to see
how the voluntary crude oil and
product allocation program is
working. Persons wishing to
supply written testimony should
contact Kenneth L. Dupuy. U. S.
Department of the Interior.

If you've been waiting for a really good
windrower to be introduced, one that will
earn its keep. One that's adaptable to your
crops and conditions. A windrower that
offers a choice of 1 0, 1 2, 1 4, or 1 6-foot
exclusive dual auger platforms, with the
balanced head knife drive that cuts at 1 500
strokes per minute. The fastest and closest
cutting windrower of any on the market,
yet you get fluffy windrows and gentle
handling of the crop with the dual auger's
float-over action. Then you're probably look
ing for a windrower like ours.
