Recently I Piet and fell in love with a girl and wanted to ma-y her. Her fam ily did not like me and made in quiries about me and discovered the whole story about what hap p?ned in my home town. They ftld their daughter she should not giarry me, that I was no good. etc. I love'-Lorraine Vry much and I know she loves me. She is old enough to know her owrPmind and to do as she pleases.

I do love him, but I also love my parents and I car.'t do any tlvjig that would hurt them so much. My girl friends say I am crazy to let my parents domi nate me like that. I am 21 And eld enough to do as I please. Maybe I'm just immature, but I don't have the nerve to go against their wishes. I am not willing to give John ny up entirely, although my par ents want me to do this. They say that anyone who gets into that kind of trouble can never be any good, but I think it was just a youthful mistake. I want to continue going with Johnny until mv parents get to know him better. I think they will come to see him as I do, but hf says we either get married orbreak up. Ha can't stand it like this. The Council Lorraine should rid herself of the idea that she Is "immature."

'T, sincerly lovc-a Lorraine, he ifeould appreciate the point of vie- o'Ser parents, who also lovi her, jnd i.e would be wviling to makg th attempt to bring them around to a) new point of view. If Johnny is not willirfj to even ngke this attempt and puts undue pressure on Lorraine to violate her conscience and her feelings toward her parents, Lor riihe can take it as an indica tion that Eer parents ar prob ably on the right track about Johnny. Certainly, he cannot be condemned forever for his oner early mistake, but perhaps t does not yet have all the charac ter and maturity she would want in a husband. (CopyrigfJ 1957.

Foremost among (recommen dations for pear improvement was further substantial plat ings. Committee membvs said they feel new plantings should be made to (-stabilize production since ar of an estimated 50 per cent of the present orchards fi 40 years. O It was recommended that new plantings be undertaken oril by existing rqryers or by someone wno has other uorms of income It mercial production in this area for bartletts ir reached in ICS ygirs, bosc and D'Anjous 15 years and Omice 20 years. Car In PV-yining Committee members said care shoifiil be taken in planning new plantings Qy to soil and water conditions. Better root stock and spacing should be coQsiderpd. ine committee suggested re planting fc done annually and all missing trees be replanted to the present iGrieties. In re planting on wet ground, quince root stock should be considered. Winter Nelis root stock is also regarded as promising. Further expansion of local cannery facilities is also re garded as desirable. It was stated that present processing facili ties are not being utilized at 100 per cent of capacity and that this situation is likely to become worse in view of future use of orchard lands for business, sub divisions and roads. The Fruit Growers League maintains housing facilities for approximately 500 Mexican Na tionals. In 1956, this proved in adequate and ranch housing had to be provided for about 75. TO committee recommended that on the ranch, housing be provided for not only more Mexican Na tionals, but for American tran sient workers. 3ppl9 Platings Committee members noted some interest lO been shown in small apple plantings. This has been confined largely to the dwarf and semi-dwarf types. However, Qk of stable markets woultvseem to make any large plantings inadvisable (St Qis time, their report indicated. Members of the ste fruit committee recommended that a market reporting service be es- was printed out that coiGOtablished, with local growers as suming the expense for such service. A rudest increase of peach acreage may be desirable, it was pointed out, with all plantings to be on well-drained soil and out of frost danger. It wQ also recommended that small plantings of peaches, such as one or two acres, should be planted to early varieties of peaches for early market con sumption. An increai) in plant ing of apricots wQ listed as desirable on well-drained land in an area out of frost danger. The committee advised against planting of sweet cherries until virus free cherry trees are avglable, but urged experiment stations to continue efforts to develop virus free sweet cher ries. It was also stated that pro duction of sour cherries in this area is not profitable in compe tition with heavy production in ether sections of the nation.

Included in their recom mendations were us of fertilizer as indicated by soil test and con ditions of plants and plant growth; irrigation only when plants neecb water and use of sufficient water to fill the soil rtservoir; rotation of pastures so all fields can grow undisturbed for 21 days; following other good pasture practices such as weed control, clipping when necessary and harrowing to spread droppings; and stirring to maintain a balance of recom mended grass and legumes in ifture forage. As a guide, ttft committee noted the following cereal and forage crc$p varieties have been N?st at the cperiment Station ana in some oiner reag ot tng county: For wheC, d 38, Elmar and Lemhi g2; for barley, Bonne ville, Atlas and Velvon (better on lighter, more droughty soils), and Union Beardless for hay; for oats, JQ11 Seeded, Crater and Grey Winter (both are good hay oats). Spring Seeded, Carleton and Kanota (on lighter soils); for rj5 &bruzzi and Balboa; for alfalfa, Lahontan and Talenfi and for corn fc grain Idahybrid 544. o 'Foorly &dspjT THe committee also stated, "It has been established that the siteiuw being used for research by the Southern Oregon Branch Experiment static for agronom ic research is poorly adapted for that purpose." It was noted that soils on the present agronomy farm contain a high concentra tion of lead arsenate, an accumu lation of spray residue from an old apple orchard located on that site for many years. Lead arsen ate in the concentrations found in these soils is highly toxic to many crops and affects reliabili ty of data obtained in experi ments.

A slight increase in acreage was recommended for cucumber., but little room for expansion was noted for cantaloupe and melons, parsnips and other minor crops. Other observations by the com mittee included the following: Broccoli and cauliflower, gen erally unprofitable to grow in this area; cabbage, could be ex panded if growers wisely control planting; and onionQ limit pres ent acreage expansion. Bgrif acrgia, It was pointed out that berry acreage should be increased some, bujl) large volumes of ber ries would not be desirable. The farm crop seeds commit tee urged investigation of mar ket outlets, price, production costs, market hazards and yield possibilities before engaging in the seed crops enterprise. The pommittee reoommended that at this time only two varieties, lat ent and Lahontan, be considered for new plantings of alfalfa for either seed or forage production. Committee members made the following observations concern ing clover varieties: Ladino, little prospect for fu ture expansion of this variety in Jackson county; Alsike, little future for a profitable seed pro duction enterprise; Red clover, production of foundation seed is recommended rather than lower grades due to market premiums ofj price per pound: sub clover fairly" good market demand at a fair rgice, highly Secommended for dry land forage and erosion prevention cover crop; crimson clover, offers possibilities f oj ex pansion as a winter annual; lot us. Granger lotus offers some limited possibilities for the grow er who has clean land and can cope with hazards of seed har vest, also drouth resistant. Turf, Pasture Grass The following observations were made concerning turf and pasture grass seed varieties: Blue grass, markets fairly well supplied by current plantings; pennlawn fescue, currently in greater demand than other fes cue varieties, bent grass, prob lems in establishing the seed pro ducgig fields in that the fiiree parent varieties must be planted in consecutive rows for. cross polinization, recommended only where ample irrigation water is available. The committee said production of sugar beet seed is an acreage contract enterprise or quota con tract. Acreage is therefore limit ed. It was noted that a decline has been evident in recent years in seed production and this area is in need of some type of crop to replace the cash income for merly" obtained from seed corps. It was recommended that the experiment station continue to y ment of better housing facilities on the farm lor transient taDor was also suggested. The committee recommended that vegetable growers take steps to develop a central mar keting organization with investi gation of problems in coordinat ing the marketing of vegetables, wiser planning of crop planting, improved packaging methods and containers, keeping grades and standards of vegetables up and advertising local produce. Limited expansion of road side stands as recommended and it was suggested that no marketing agreement T3 stt up for any veetbl comrrSdity t the present tim. tF Th comiitk urgpf tgpn sion ot th lct ftesh tomto tntrfSt, itt tioH mhe on unilbrmitji im ind grcu.
