Chamberof Commerce Notes
Increase in Inquiries from
All Parts of Country.
An Increasing Interest in the
Rogue River valley is being
shown by people from all sec
tions of the country and is re
flected in a growing number of
inquiries received at the Jack
son County Chamber of Com
merce office in Medford. Re
quests for information are now
averaging between 150 and 200
a month, according to Frank
Hull, manager, and are Increas
ing steadily.
It is obvious from the type
of letter beinrf received that the
Inquiries for the most part come
from citizens Of a substantial
type, Mr. Hull states, and that
the prospective residents are
persons who will be an asset to
the community when they ar
rive. The Chamber staff has ob
served that thousands of dollars'
worth of property- has already
been sold in recent months to
people whose first information
about the district was gained
from the Chamber of Commerce.
The inquiries, originating in
practically every state of the
union, seek information about
the climate, the cultural ad
vantages of the district, the
schools, religious institutions
and about business conditions.
The later type of question is in
the minority, Mr. Hull states,
the people for the most part ap
parently being more interested
in the type of living conditions
than in ways to make money.
The letters come from business
officials of nationally known
and women and from many per
sons seeking a place to retire.
Mrs. Glen Jackson, on the
staff of the Chamber of Com
merce for the past year, handles
all these requests and makes
every effort to give complete in
formation, the manager states.

JACKSON COUNTY FARM NOTES
Compiled by County Office .0. S. C. Extension Service
October 30 Deadline On
Dairy Subsidy Payments
All dairymen who have not
applied for milk and cream sub
sidy for sales during July and
August, should apply for the
same prior to October 30, which
is the dead-line for payment of
July and August sales.
With added effort needed to
ifieet the winter rates for dairy
production payments should as
sist county farmers in doing
their part to narrow the gap be
tween production and demand.
The winter rates for dairy pro
duction payments which became
effective September 1 are 70c
per hundred weiRht for milk and
10c per pound for butterfat.
The importance of increasing
or maintaining milk production
at the highest possible level is
well illustrated for farmers by
the recent necessity to raise the
ration value of creamery butter
to 20 points. This action was
necessary due to the small sup
ply available and the expected
seasonal decline in production
which indicates October civilian
supplies of butter will be 10.
000,000 pounds less than in Sep
tember. More than 1,750.000 milk pro
ducers the largest number of
any payment period since the
dairy production program was
initiated received a total of
$64,153,228 in dairy production
payments on sales of 13.388,500
pounds of mllv and 16fi.308.340
pounds of butterfat during May
and June. These payments are
made to ofset increase in dairy
production costs in order to
maintain milk production at the
high level necessary to meet re
quirements. Since "the program
became effective October 1.
1943, producers had received a
total of S222.B62.000 on produc
tion through June.
Oregon farmers had shared
S2.931.534.40 of this national
total. For the May-June poriod,
dairy farmers in the slate re
ceived $847,563.57 in dairy pro
duction payments.
j Turkey Set-aside
Revised to Aid Army
The war food administration
amended the turkey set-aside or
der that is intended to assist the
U. S. quartermaster roros to ac
quire at least GO. 000.000 pounds
to supply all of the American
fighting forces stationed over
seas and in this country. The
amendment requires that own
ers of 5,000 pounds or more in
storage must report and-offer
them (if not previously offered)
to the QMC and that the set
aside will not he terminated un
til enniteh turkeys have been
gas due to incomplete records,
it will be an easy matter to
straighten it locally. After Octo
ber 15, however, it will be nec
essary to contact Portland to
get the information. Prompt at
tention to this matter may save
considerable delay.
Peach Spray Duo
For Blight Contral
Peach and apricot trees should
be sprayed during the next two
weeks for control of peach
blight and peach leaf curl.
A properly prepared 10-10-100
homemade bideaux is unsur
passed for this spray. If com
mercially prepared bordeaux is
used, use 20 pounds per 100 gal
lons. If a copper substitute Is
used, it should be used seven
pounds per 100 gallons .The ad
dition of one quart of oil emus

these sprays will improve them.

TROUBLE UNLESS
PLANS SPEEDED
Chicago, Oct. 12 U.R) Leon
Henderson, former head of OPA
and now chairman of the Board
of the Research Institute of
America, said today that "if the
pace of preparing for peace is
not increased (in the United
States) we will have an unman
ageable amount of unemploy
ment within a month after the
end of the European war."
Henderson told the 14th bien
nial congress of the cooperate
league that the U. S. must move
drastically in revision of our
tax system and in planning for
emergency public work.
"The biggest source of na
tional income (in the postwar
period) sufficient to maintain
a high level of employment will
be in foreign trade," Henderson
said, "but added that he was
"pessimistic about formation of
an economic foreign policy."

DEWEY CHARGES

Salt Lake City, Oct. 12 (U.R)
Secretary of Interior Harold
L. Ickes has answered Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey's charge that
the Roosevelt administration had
neglected the west by declaring
that the western state's average
crop value per acre under the
bureau of reclamation's irriga
tion program "has increased
from $30.10 under a Republican
administration to $95.84 today."
Speaking before a Democratic
rally last night Ickes said that
power installations on bureau of
reclamation projects are now
more than 18 times the total
capacity installed in 1933.
"Since 1933 we have 'neglect
ed' the west so much that the
value of farm products from an
acreage irrigated by the bureau
of reclamation has increased 360
per cent," he said.
The present administration,
under the Taylor grazing act,
has made the livestock industry
a business instead of a gamble
by making 142,000,000 acres of
controlled federal range avail
able to livestock owners, Ickes
asserted.
