Part of the story of Oregon’s na
tural resources and the effect of
the land grant college program on
their development will be told to
the entire nation over the Nation
al Broadcasting company's network
on May 20. On that day Oregon
State college will have charge of a
full hour's program on the Nation
al Farm and Home hour, which is
carried from coast to coast from
9:30 to 10:30 o’clock in the morn
ing, Pacific standard time.
This will be one of a series of
monthly programs sponsored by the
different land grant colleges in this
country. Heading the program from
Oregon, which will be put on the
air from the Portland studios of the
National
Broadcasting
company,
will be Dr. W. J. Kerr, for 25 years
president of O.S.C., and now chan
cellor emeritus of the state system
of higher education. Dr. Kerr is a
past president of the Land Grant
College association and is now the
"dean” of all land grant college
executives in this country. He will
speak on the general contribution of
this pioneer movement in education
PAGE THREE
to the life of America.
President George W. Peavy, Wm.
A. Schoenfeld, dean of agriculture,
and R. G. Johnson, professor of live
stock management, are the other
three men to be on the program.
They will discuss in dialogue form
the stewardship of Oregon in con
nection with the wild life, forests
and agricultural resources within
the borders of the commonwealth.
Interspersed through the program
will be music supplied by the state
college organizations such as the
band and glee clubs. Jennings Pierce
western director of agriculture for
the NBC, will come from San Fran
cisco to announce the program.

TERMS OF NEW FARM ACT
County School Superintendent
DEFINED AND SIMPLIFIED.
Non-Partisan Ballot
Simplification of terms and some
new rulings on details vital in the
far western region have been an
nounced by George Farrell, director
of the western division of the AAA.
Officials of the Oregon State college
extension service who are assisting
in the educational campaign in con
nection with the new program be
lieve that most of the new develop
ments are of benefit to Oregon farm
ers planning to participate in the
conservation work.
The limiting term “soil conserva-
tion" has been dropped, and hence-
forth the term "agricultural conser-
vatlon program of the AAA” will be
used in order to avoid confusion
with the established work of the soil
conservation service. The basic
idea, of course, remains the same.
As recently spmmed up by Director
Farrell, it is "to help farmers bear
the cost of planting more of their
land to crops that are good for the
soil and less to cash crops which de
plete the soil and leave it exposed
to erosion.” Those are also the
crops which have been burdened by
dangerous surpluses.
A ruling has been made regarding
orchard land which permits the
classification of young orchards as
crop land in figuring the soil deplet
ing crop base for any farm. All or
chards or vineyards that had not
reached bearing age on January 1,
1936, are no longer to be considered
as neutral, as was the general rule
for orchards at first.
A final ruling is expected at any
time on the classification of sum
mer fallow land. The latest word
is that it will probably be included
with soil depleting acreage, and
that county production factors in
summer fallow counties will be ad
justed accordingly. All county fac
tors and rates of payment on soil
building practices are expected to
be announced definitely for Oregon
early in May.
Former minimum diversion re
quirements have been eliminated In
the new rulings. The first regula
tion made it necessary that a farm-

provide that he may divert less than
16 per cent, but will have deducted
from payments otherwise due, 1*
times the normal acreage rate on
the acres he is deficient.

added to the soil depleting list,

will not qualify.
There is no longer a double class-
Ification of soil conserving and soil
building crops. All are now classi-
tied as soil conserving crops, and
the Class 2 payments will be made
for soil building practices which in
clude the planting of certain soil
conserving crops.
