I 1930 Model A Ford FARM CO OPERATIVE DIVISION A MESSAGE TO PANEL DELIVERY $245.00 EVERY MEMBER. 1928 Model A Ford SCHOENFELD TO BE HEA D OF PORTLAND DAIRY MEET. Dairymen of the Pacifia north- west are looking forward to the re gional dairy conference in Portland April 9 and 10 as probably the most important in the recent history of the industry. At that meeting, pro ducers or others interested in the dairy industry will have opportuni ty to learn the details of the pro posed production control program as make suggestions ’ or objections as to its features. William A. Schoenfeld, dean of agriculture at Oregon State college, has been named chairman of the re gional conference by Chester C. Da vis, administrator of the farm act. Dean Schoenfeld announces that the meeting will be at the Multnomah hotel starting at 10:00 o’clock Mon day morning. Delegations will be present from Oregon, Washington and northern Idaho. Three or four specialists from the AAA organizations In Washington will be present at the meeting, pos sibly including Roger Morse, exten sion dairyman for Oregon, who was loaned to the Washington authori ties to assist in working out the program. A request that his leave be extended another 90 days or un til the dairy program is actively in the field was recently granted by the O.S.C. authorities. The national dairy industry faces a milk production which Increased by two billion pounds from 1930 to 1932; a cow population more than 26 million larger than it has ever been before; an average price index of 69 compared with 140 in 192S, and total cash income just about half the 1929 level. Means of alle viating this condition will be the basis of the discussion at the Port land meeting. RELIEF PURCHASES OF MEAT AID WESTERN CATTLE PRICE. The effect on general cattle pri ces of limited purchases of surplus meat on a terminal market has been convincingly shown by a study of the result of government purchases of cattle at North Portland during January and February of this year. The study was made by B. W. Ro- denwold, assistant professor of ani mal husbandry at Oregon State col- lege. , Accurate market figures from ori ginal records were studied first for an eight year period and then for the period in question. After allow ing for all normal seasonal fluctua tions it was concluded that the gov ernment purchases of some 800 beef carcasses for $26,000 had raised the general market level enough to bring an excess return of at least 1130,000 to producers of Oregon end Washington during the two- months period. Changes in the Port land price affect this whole area, it was shown. Oregon livestock as sociations have contended success fully to have relief purchases made in the area where they are to be used. ______ ____ RURAL ELECTRIC STUDY NOW ON CWA PROGRAM. Following up the work of the re cently completed rural housing sur vey, President Roosevelt has ordered a survey to be made of the power resources, the transmission and dis tribution of electrical energy to consumers, and the utilization of electricity in the same areas cover ed in the housing study. This project has been assigned to every state to be financed from CWA funds, and in Oregon has been placed in charge of the Oregon Ex tension service with F. Earl Price, agricultural engineer, as supervisor in charge. Price was instructed to use the same county engineers em ployed in the housing survey as far as possible, and he has his force or- ganized and started on the task al- ready. The survey is to be completed by May 1. The purposes of the study as an nounced from Washington are first to appraise the possibilities of sup plying electric service to additional rural customers, and second to ob tain accurate Information relative to present rural service and its uti lization. In Oregon the survey will be car ried on in Clackamas. Josephine, Jackson, Deschutes. Crook, Gilliam and Sherman counties, though a general summary for the state will also be submitted, ________ Unusual Poultry Venture Tried. COOPERATION "The spirit of cooperation is not speculative greed. It is not profit at the expense of others. On the contrary, basically the co operative movement is a social movement. It makes a profit not tor the few who supply the cash . . . . but for the many who supply the work.” —HENRY A. WALLACE Secretary of Agriculture. O.S.C. MAN WANTS SAMPLES OF NEW STRAWBERRY PEST. A new circular of information re garding a dangerous strawberry pest, the cyclamen mite, has just been issued by the Oregon Experi ment station in which Dr. Don C. Mote, entomologist, requests grow ers who suspect the presence of this pest to send a plant to the station for examination. Such a plant may be cut below the crown, wrapped in waxed paper and mailed to the col lege at Corvallis. Little is yet known about this pest, but it has been identified in scattered sections of all coast states. The exceedingly small mites are of ten found in enormous numbers at the base of the leaf stems around the ciown, where they puncture the tissues and cause dwarfing, and sometimes a crinkled discoloration. A closely related pest in England is checked by a hot water treatment applied to new plants. Dr. Mote re ports. a STANFIELD GRANGE WILL ELECT OFFICERS APRIL 7 Election of state officers will be held at the first April meeting of the Stanfield Grange Saturday, April 7, at which all members are requested to be present.

JEFFERSON COUNTY TO USE PICK-UP CROP INSURANCE FEATURE. $165.00 Jefferson county Wheat farmers will have opportunity to realize on the crop insurance feature of their wheat allotment contracts as the re sult of recent acceptance of that county as an area where planting of wheat this year would in many instances be of no benefit. Drouth over that area last fall made plant ing impractical in most instances, and this dry weather continued this spring. The wheat contracts obligate the grower to plant at least 54 per cent of his base acreage to qualify for full benefit payments unless the grower is located in an area recog nized by the wheat administration as unfit for planting by reason of drouth, floods, storms or other “act of God.” After careful inspection of condi tions and on the plea of Jefferson county residents, Paul V. Maris, di rector of extension, recommended that Jefferson county be so desig nated. Approval of the recommen dation has just been received from Washington. This does not mean that all grow ers In the county as a whole will automatically be relieved of the necessity of making the 54 per cent planting. Each individual grower must make application for exempt ion through his allotment commit tee. In case a grower’s application is approved by the committee and at Washington, he will receive his full benefit payments just as though he had produced a crop. It is pointed out that any grower with reasonable chances for a crop will probably make more planting, but the ruling does avoid the waste of having seed thrown away in meeting technical requirements when there is no possibility of a crop. Trained specialists who have ex amined the region found that the soil was so dry near the surface as to preclude adequate germination, and that the deeper soil moisture is too meager to make a crop if it did come up. 1929 Model A Ford PICK-UP $175.00 1926 Dodge Truck % TON $100.00 WANT ADS FOR SALE OR TRADE—’28 Durant Sedan in good condition.

Johnson, poultry pathologist at Oregon State college, in working out a new and successful vaccination for fowl pox, has come in the form of an invita tion for him to speak on this sub ject at the International Veterinary congress to be in New York this summer. This is the first time that this famous world wide body has met in the United States and the gathering is attracting much attention. Dr. Johnson and two scientists from California are the only men west of the Mississippi river to appear on the program. Dr. Johnson was the first to de velop a successful method of using live, unattenuated virus in vaccinat ing for chicken pox. He made it so safe and simple that it is used now by the ordinary grower. Since its introduction outbreaks of this wide- ly distributed disease of chickens and turkeys have become easily pre ventable. Turkey Pool Expected Soon.

Secretary of Agriculture Wallace advocates that we adopt a middle road between nationalism and in ternationalism. We would both sell and buy more abroad than we do at present. And an essential of that, as Mr. Wallace pointed out. is that about 25.000,00o acres of first-class agricultural land be retired from production. . and crop control is the most persistent of agricultural problems now. Every farm econo mist, every qualified observer, every progressive farmer, knows the need of it. In certain agricultural fields —notably cotton—a large measure of success has been achieved in ob taining it, due to the Intensive work of eotton cooperatives, whose mem bership includes a heavy percentage of the farmers of their areas. Unorganized farmers, each pursu ing his own policy irrespective of markets or price levels, are the great obstacles to crop regulation. They continue to produce surpluses that must be thrown into already glutted markets, foreIng down pri- cee—and governmental work has made hardly a dent. The way out is through more intensive voluntary cooperation. REDMOND—An unusual venture in poultry production has been un dertaken by Mrs. Frank Nutley of Redmond, who is producing broilers for the winter market. Mrs. Nutley bad approximately 900 birds ready for the December market, and star ted out in the same month with 1700 day-old chicks, thus producing approximately 2600 for the season. These chicks are grown entirely un der confinement and are forced for growth until they reach an age of seven or eight weeks, when they are marketed. Although such extreme forcing Is usually looked upon as a hazardous procedure, County Agent G us Hägglund, who has cooperated with Mrs. Nutley In working out mash formulas and feeding sche dules, reports that so far sho has experienced but a 3 per cent, loss, Cooperatives are essential to re most of which was attributed to leg- covery and to prevent government weakness, a trouble which was an- regulation of farms. — Industrial ticipated.
