Today's House Plan
A handsome asset to any
neighborhood is this 1855 square
foot, four-bedroom home.
Open planning unites the liv
ing and work areas. The ingen
iously angled fireplace becomes
the separation between the spa
cious living room and family
room. This provides an element
of privacy in each. Sliding glass
doors open to include the patio
for indoor - 01 tdoor relaxation.
To add still more space during
pleasant weather.
Backing the fireplace is the
barbecue. The sdjacent island
counter - op range, accession
from either side, is conveniently
near the family breakfast nook

Produce Men Told
Of Law's Meaning
And Its Benefits
Salem Since the season of
heaviest movement of produce
approaching, the state depart
ment of agriculture offers point
ers on the produce dealers' act
for benefit of producers and
others who may be ignorant of
the law.
The law licenses two types of
business: (1) the wholesale pro
duce dealer and (2) the retail
produce peddler.
Farmers who sell produce
they grow are exempt from the
license provisions unless they
also buy produce to sell. Then
they need a license the same as
ony other dealer or peddler. '
One feature of the law often
overlooked by producers is the
department's authority to han
dle complaints. Growers, not
paid for produce as stipulated in
the written or verbal contract
with a state-licensed operator,
may turn the matter over to the
department for settlement.
The department urges grow
ers to have a written contract
when they deliver products to
produce buyers on any but a
cash basis.
The wholesale dealer's license
applies to the resident dealer,
trucker dealer, credit buyer,
broker, jobber and commission
merchant. The only exceptions
are the producer who handles
only produce he grows and the
cash buyer who does not sell in
Oregon. The wholesale license
costs $50 plus $2.50 for each
plate used on trucks.
The retail peddler's license
($10) authorizes sale of produce
from a vehicle to homes, restau
rants, hotels or other places-
where food is prepared for con
sumption on the premises.
A dealer who wants to oper
ate in both retail and wholesale
fields needs both licenses.
Jackson Rates High
In Coyotes Killed
Salem Largest coyote kills
in the state were made in Jack
son and" Douglas counties by
hunters working under the fed-
erai-state - county program, 11
was reported.
A total of 15 each were taken
in the two counties', the state de
partment of agriculture report
ed. Sixteen bobcats taken in
Coos county and Clatsop coun
ties topped the state in the bear
kill with 12.
A total of 177 predatory ani
mals were taken in the state by
June. According to the state de
partment of agriculture figures
this is nine less than in May
Coyotes -topped the June list,
with 71 exterminated. Bobcats,
totalling 67, were not far -behind.
Hunters got 38 bear and
one mountain lion.
Traps also yielded 10 badgers.
34 fox, eight skunks, 32 racoons
and 13 porcupines during June.
Predatory hunters worked in 20
counties. ;
Decline of Trees
Being Studied
A statement on the possible
pear tree decline in the Medford
area is expected to be prepared
by Oregon State college plant
pathologists in about two weeks,
it was reported Wednesday.
';A team of OSC plarit patholo
gists have been surveying about
15 orchards in- this area, but
have not determined the cause
for. the decline condition, C. B.
Cordy, county horticultural
agent, said.
. The slew pear decline is a seri
ous problem in Yakima, Wash.,
area orchards, Cordy said. The
OSC plant pathologists also
visited that area to see if they
could get some leads on the prob
lem, which condition, was first
recognized here about two years
ago and three years ago in the
Yakima area, he added.
,,-Those who made the inspec
tion of this area are -Roy Young,
acting head of ,the plant pathol
ogy department at OSC; Norman
Davis, Iain MacSwan, and Ron
Cameron, all of Oregon State.
Cordy, Don Berry and officials
from the local experiment sta
tion have been working with the
pathologists here.
Three California horticultur
ists toured Jackson county or
chards Saturday, July 20, with
Dr. Koliand Blake, horticultur
ist with the Southern Oregon
Experiment station and Cordy.
The localvisit followed a tour
by research workers last week
in Washington orchards. They
studied a "decline" condition
which has reached serious pro
portions among pear trees in the
Prosser, Yakima and Wenatchee
districts, Cordy said.
Cordy said then results of
the Jackson county study indi
cate the poor condition of some
of the pear trees in this area is
due not to the 'decline" under
study in Washington, but to ex
cessive soil moisture.
Trees suffering from the
Washington "decline" quit grow
ing and fruiting, he said, and in
the worst cases, die. No cause or
treatment or easy diagnosis for
the serious ailment has been
found.
