Some 25 of Oregon's most promi nent men and women assembled in Portland August 28 and presented in emphatic terms their reasons why KOAC, the state's only publicly- owned radio station, should not be forced to relinquish a portion of its time and power to a commercial broadcasting company of LaGrande. The Portland hearing was called to enable Oregon citizens to voice their opinions in the matter without the necessity of attending the offi cial hearing before the federal ra dio commission in Washington, D.C. September 18, and the testimony ta ken will be forwarded to Washing ton and introduced at that hearing. Alva W. Person was appointed by the radio commission to preside over the Portland hearing. KOAC is a strictly non-commer- cial station, operated since 1922 In the interests of public education, and since 1928 has been using 1000 watts power with strictly modern equipment on unlimited time. It serves all the higher educational in stitutions, many of the state depart ments at Salem, and several of the semi-public agencies of the state. such as the Oregon State Tubercu- losis association, the Oregon Con- gress of Paints and Teachers, state grange and farmers’ union. The sentiment voiced in the tes- timony at Portland was unanimous as to the importance of maintaining the station as it is. as a public re- source that should be conserved. It was felt by all that any loss of pow er or limitation of time would ser- lously cripple the ability of the sta tion to serve the people of the state. While there was no disposition to deny the LaGrande station a license, there was strong feeling against granting it at the expense of the state-owned station. “This station by all means must be preserved to the public,” said Ray Gill, master of the state grange, who pointed out that it is the last regional radio station In the United States with unlimited hours of oper- ation, owned and operated by the public, and with no commercial as- pects. Umatilla Co-operative Creamery made an excellent showing at monthly scoring and analysis con ducted at Oregon State College De partment of Dairy Husbandry. The samples are taken from the regular run of print butter sold to retailers and mailed to Corvallis where the butter is scored for qual ity and analyzed for composition and yeast and mold count. The scores of the various cream- eries range from 0 to 100 on compo- sition and the yeast and mold counts range from 0 to 10,000 per cubic centimeter. The efficiency score is the average of the composi tion score and the yeast and mold score. The Umatilla Cooperative Cream ery had an efficiency score of 100% and a yeast and mold score of 99% which makes an efficiency score of 99.5%. Only one creamery of the 33 creameries represented, had an efficiency score as high as the Uma- tilla Cooperative Creamery. The quality score for the Umatil la Co-op Creamery was 91.6% while the average score of all of the cream eries represented was 90.67%. Of the butter sold through inter- state Associated Creameries by the Creamery : Umatilla Co-operative 15,300 lbs. scored 92; 13,124 lbs. scored 91; 9,588 lbs. scored 90; butter 3,196 lbs. scored 89. Total ‘ sold, in cubes, 41,208 lbs. Local print trade, 8,095 lbs. Total sales, 49,203 lbs. The butter has shown a great im- provement in the last few months, and no butter has been returned for any reason whatsoever. Improvements in equipment and sanitary conditions have made it possible for the Umatilla Co-opera tive Creamery to do as well as many modern plants. FIGURES SHOW FAIR “RENT” TO BE PAID WHEAT FARMERS. Wlth the amount of wheat acre age reduction definitely set at 15 per cent by the Wheat Adjustment administration, Oregon will have 156,900 acres to be taken out of wheat production this next year, if every wheat grower in the state signs up under the adjustment plan. Of course it is not expected that everyone of the 17,090 wheat grow ers in the state will find it advan tageous to sign up to cooperate in this national movement to restore the purchasing power of wheat, al- though early indications through- the Columbia Basin show that more than 90 per cent of the wheat grow ers there are availing themselves of this o: portunity. Organization work is progressing ra,.dly throughout the state in order that some two million dollars out of a total of ap proximately three and a quarter million may be paid this September, according to officials of the Oregon State College Extension service, which is in charge of the education al and organization campaign. By taking average yields of the various counties, the extension ser vice men find that farmers will, in effect, be paid an average of *20 an acre for the land left out of wheat production. This amount varies, of course, with the county, ranging from *11.44 to as high as *32.78. Of course. these benefit payments are not made directly on an acre ba sis, but rather at the rate of 28 cents a bushel for the allotment bushels assigned each grower, but now that the acreage reduction has been definitely set at 15 per cent, it is a simple matter for each grower to figure out his possible benefit payments on the basis of acreage to be left out of wheat. Actual benefits,« however, will doubtless be considerably greater than this, owing to the provision which requires acreage reduction for only two out of the three years which the contract covers. The to tal benefit payments for the follow ing two years will vary according to the market price of wheat. Later information on uses which may be made of the contracted acre age Indicates that such land may be put in permanent pasture crops in any section of this state, but that if it is so seeded, it cannot be used the second year as contracted acre age after the pasture is ready for use. This, however, does not involve a reduction in a man's total allowed wheat acreage, but would simply mean that he would have to handle another tract of land according to the restrictions provided in bis con- tract. POULTRY Notice of Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the Her miston Cannery & Laundry will be held at the library Friday, Septem ber 15, at 2:00 P. M., for the pur pose of electing three board mem bers and such other business as may come before the meeting. Attention is called to the fact that any member who has not paid her fifty cent membership fee, or who is not in good standing in the Farm Bureau Auxiliary, is not entitled to vote. CATHERINE SOMMERER, Sec. NORTHWEST IS CENTER OF MUCH FARM ACT ACTIVITY. Oregon and the Pacific northwest where the centers of much activity related to the agricultural adjust ment act and having to do particu larly with wheat, fruit, and live stock In this territory, according to a summary of events issued by Ore gon State college. Of vital interest the world over was the informal hearing at Port land on the proposed plan of subsi dizing export of some 40 million bushels of surplus wheat in the Pacific Northwest. This constitutes a new policy for the United States and is considered to have special significance just now as the wheat exporting nations are seeking to reach some reduction agreement. The hearing resulted in formation of a detailed plan reported accepta ble to all parties concerned, parti cularly the producers, the exporters and the millers. The plan calls for selling this surplus wheat for what it will bring In foreign markets and then making up the difference be- tween that and the domestic mar- ket price out of proceeds of the wheat processing tax. The effect of this will be to raise the price in the northwest by wip- ing out much of the present abnor mal spread between here and Chi cago, officials believe. It will also clear out the present congested ter minals and storage space without flooding the eastern markets and thus harming the entire domestic price level. Immediately following the wheat hearing the formal hearing on the proposed marketing agreement for tree fruits of the four Pacific north- west states was held. Sentiment was overwhelmingly in favor of the agreement submitted by the agri cultural adjustment administration, which was a compromise between previous majority and minority re ports. Federal examiners who presided over the hearing expect it to be ap proved and put into effect by Sep tember 15, in time for the winter pear and apple movement. More orderly control of markets, result ing in better returns to producers, is hoped for. Meanwhile the administration has put its bog slaughtering plan Into effect in the middleweet and has an- nounced that hog .raisers in this state will also be eligible later to dispose of light weight pigs and heavy sows soon to farrow at pre- mium prices. This is purely an emergency plan to avert disas trous surplus of pork, the officials state. More permanent plans for hand- ling all livestock were considered at Spokane where amendments to the national code were approved and preparations made to organize the northwest states on a regional basis. Pollinization Value Shown. ROSEBURG--The value of polli- nlzation in cherry orchards is ap parent on the G. T. Royer place at Dillard, where pollinizers hare ! been placed in a Lamber cherr orchard during the past two years A 300 per cent increase in yield on the limbe near the pollinizers is estima- ted by the county agent. OREGON CITIZENS OPPOSE iNAVY AGAIN RECRUITING MEN INTO SERVICE The headquarters office for Navy Recruiting for the Washington-Ore gon district, located in Portland, Ore., has recently announced that after a long period of restricted re cruiting, they are now assigned a quota of about eighty men each month for the next several months. After the almost complete lack of vacancies during the past several months, this sudden call for a large number of men opens up a field of opportunity to many that have felt that the chances for a naval career were closed to them. The recent de cisions of the government to main tain the national defense at its highest peak of efficiency, with a minimum expenditure, for safeguard Ing the interests of the country has caused this sudden increase in en listments. The Portland office accentuates the requirements for enlistment, namely: an applicant must be a United States citizen, be between the ages of seventeen and twenty- four inclusive, must have at least a grade school education, be of up- standing character, must have no dependents, have a clear police and juvenile court record, must be able to pass the required physical and mental examinations and be able to supply references as to character. A great many young men who have applied and were unable to en list due to lack of vacancies, may now find this field of opportunity opened up to them. Any young men desiring further information con cerning enlistments in the navy should see their postmaster or the recruiting officer in the U. 8. Court House, at Portland. Ore. CHICKENS POINT TO VITAMIN DISCOVERY Beri-Beri Cure Believed to Have Led to Idea. Some chickens In Java contracted beri beri in 1897 and their cure pos sibly led to the Idea expressed in the now common word, vitamin, which is heard and read on every hand, says H. H. Williams of the New York State College of Agriculture. Beri-beri, he says, is a disease of the nerves which leads to paralysis and heart failure. A Dutch physician, named Eljkman, was medical officer to prisoners In Java. He discovered that the hens that were fed only the left over pol ished rice from the prisoners' table had contracted the disease. Doctor Eljkman then added the rice polishings, which is similar to the bran of wheat, to the chickens’ diet and they recovered. Then the prisoners were fed the unpolished rice Instead of the well-milled sort, and from that time the disease beri beri ceased to worry medical officers In the Orient. From that time chemists began to experiment and to theorize on the sub stances known today as vitamins. The word was first coined twenty years ago by a Polish chemist as a symbol for an unknown substance vital to health and life. Later, the chemists turned to the alphabet as a temporary means to designate ench vitamin, since they are of unknown composition. Six dif ferent vitamins are now definitely known, although a recent book lists a possible seventeen. No one knows what vitamins are except that they oc cur In small quantities, that they are easily destroyed by heat and oxidation. Fight on Tuberculosis in Illinois Successful The state department of agricul ture In Illinois, through Its extensive program of testing poultry for tuber culosis. has succeeded In suppressing to a large extent the disease in the counties where this work has been done. But of much greater importance Is the fact that the Information secured can be used by any flock owner in other North Central states where tu berculosis In poultry Is equally prev alent, to rid his flock of this menace without applying the tuberculin test. Out of a total of 2,302 poultry flocks in LaSalle. Livingston, Bureau and Mc Lean counties. Illineis, tuberculin test ed during the period September 1, 1931. to December 1, 1932, 1,323 or 57 per cent disclosed one or more react ing tuberculosis birds. This Is a low er percentage of flock Infection than was found In several other counties In the North Central states. Out of a total of 96,088 old birds tested (over eighteen months of age), 12.571 or 13.08 per cent reacted. Out of a total of 250.802 young birds test ed (under eighteen months of age), 3.080 or 1.23 per cent reacted. This strongly confirms previous data se cured which shows that old birds are much more seriously affected with tu berculosis than pullets. The lower percentage of the pullets reacted In the counties «where the testing was done at an earlier age. DARING AERIAL SCENES THRILL IN WAR DRAMA Hollywood — Paramount, in par ticular—has done itself proud! They’ve taken a story by the au thor of "Wings", injected the most thrilling air episodes this inveter ate picture-goer has ever witnessed, spiced it with crisp and effective dialogue, provided it with a wind fall of mirth, added a tender and genuinely touching romance, and given a complete and authentic pic ture of the lives of those devil-may- care skymen who flirt with death in the clouds and are just as adventur ous on the ground. That's a mighty big order. But that’s what has been done in “The Eagle and The Hawk," showing at the Oasis theatre Friday and Satur day. The cast is a director’s dream— Fredric Marsh as “The Eagle,” lov ing flying, abhorring killing; Cary Grant as “The Hawk,” quick-temp ered and quick-triggered observer; blonde and lithesome Carole Lom- bard as the beautiful English so- ciety girl; Jack Oakie, as the avia tor who takes nothing seriously ex- cept his meals and his medals.
