Ostlind, dis trict manager for fertilizer of the Chevron Chemical Co. in Portland. Ostlind predicted the short age would last three years, before the supply would equal the farm demand.

A representative of Far more Service Center in Pen dleton reports that farm chemical supplies have been cut by nearly 50 per cent of its last year's total. Other chemi cal dealers in the area report up to 66 per cent reduction in chemical allocations. The farm machinery busi ness is also tied to various shortage problems this spring. The truckers strikes slowed down delivery of equipment and the gas shortage has caused concern and confusion at the factories as nearly all vehicles produced have been switched from gasoline to diesel. Reports from Mountain Machinery and Pioneer Im plement companies tell of orders which may not be filled in time for this year's harvest. It now appears the farmer musl take the shortages, along with the weather, as a hazard in crop production.
