Care in choice of varieties for reseeding frozen out wheat in east ern Oregon, and precautions in treating seed for smut this spring, will go far toward preventing seri ous loss from low yields or grade discounts for the corning crop, says G. R. Hyslop, head of the farm crops department at Oregon State college, who has studied the situation with college representatives and leading farmers east of the Cascades. "Turkey wheat that was well es tablished and that which was plant ed very late and just sprouting seem to be injured less than much of the wheat In the intermediate stages," says Hyslop. "Wheat on well pre pared summer fallow apparently suffered less than that on late plowed or poorly prepared summer fallow.” OREGON STATE LEGISLATIVE NEWS Brief Resume of Happenings of the Week Collected for Our Readers _ Highlights of Monday In ths Ore gon legislature: Governor in message urges further control of utilities.

Burke Urges Salary Cuts A bill to cut the governor’s salary $2000 and reduce the pay of the sec retary and state treasurer from $5400 to $4500 and slash $500 from the $5000 wage of the attorney-general.

Warrant indebtedness is only for current amounts and is amply covered by de linquent taxes. Friday the 13th was a luck day for De- many Cottage Grove residents, daring that in these stringent times each must help the other, Frank Men- denhall, operator of a jewelry store there, announced the cancellation of all accounts due his store, starting the year with a clean slate. , statement that the purple cane rasp berries are crosses between the black and red raspberry. The purple rasp berry seems to possess the suscepti bility to Verticillium wilt that is found in tthe black raspberry. In tests at the Oregon Experiment Sta tion, five out of ten plants of the No. 161 purple raspberry easily ac quired the Verticillium and seven of ten of the No. 231 took on the same trouble when they were exposed to it. Dr. Zeller, Patholo gist at Oregon State Agricultural College, suggests that the purple raspberry bo tested for Verticillium wilt before planting under Oregon conditions, it being his judgment that the red raspberry is much bet ter for our purposes, is already es tablished, and is adapted to the Ore gon climate.
