Meat Infection Laws in Oreaon 3 Said Among Worst Klamath Falls, Ore., May 10 (U.R) Oregon meat inspection laws were labeled as "one of the eight worst in the country," by F. L, Rltter alter the marketing committee told the Oregon Cat tlemen's association yesterday the state needed tighter meat inspection laws but not compul sory federal grading of meat. Ritter, adviser to the Oregon Meat council, told the delcgales independent packers would ask the state legislature to set up a complete state inspection service financed jointly by industry and state funds. Recommendation Made After industry leaders end state officials criticized the in adequacy of present Oregon meat Inspection laws, the mar keting committee made Its rec ommendation for tighter meat inspection laws. Ritter said eight plants were following voluntary Inspection rules created by the state at the instigation of the federal meat grading service. State Director of Agriculture E. L. Peterson and Ritter said satisfactory Inspection would hinder small slaughter plants. Ritter said some small plants should not even be licensed be cause of unsanitary conditions. Opposition Shown Opposition to compulsory meat grading as proposed in the Portland area came in the forms of resolutions from Umatilla, Grant and Harney county asso ciations. Producers were concerned that Portland's possible adoption of compulsory meat grading would force the hand of other Oiegon towns, "just like day light saving time."

Advised This Week The first spray for the control of walnut blight should be ap plied to walnut trees in the ear lier locations the end of this week. County Agent C. B. Cnr dy advised today. He said the spray should be applied as soon as the young walnuts can be ob served in the ends of the new growth. Two sprays spaced 10 days apart will generally give the needed protection in this area and Cordy suggests the use of one pound of yellow oxide to 100 gallons of water or specially compounded dust ot iixco cop per, lime, sulphur and oil will give control. Cordy also reported that the first cover spray for codling moth control has been delayed by the cold weather. In an aver age season, he said, the cover would have been used about Mav 15, but this year it will be delayed until at least May 25. The exact date for the comple tion of the spray cannot be set until warm evenings give the codling moth a chance to fly and lay eggs.
