Fruit Grower Costs Lower In Australia Lower cost of production is the major advantage Australian orchardists have over Rogue Valley fruit growers, according to a visitor from "down under." Guest speaker, P. E. Cook, an orchardist from Batlow, New South Wales, Australia, made the comparison at a recent meet ing of the Medford Pear Ship pers association. He is on tour of the fruit districts of the United States. While in Medford he vis ited several local orchard and packing operations. Cook noted that Australian growers are plagued with many of the same insect and disease problems as are U. S. growers but that to date they have en countered none of the so-called 'pear decline' which is preva lent on the west coast. New South Wales has about 2,000 acres of pears and apples with all production processed for domestic consumption, Cook reported. The primary pear varieties In order of acreage grown in New South Wales includes Packham, Williams or Bartlett, Josephine and Winter Cole, with a few acres of Anjou and Cornice. Except for the turnabout of seasons in the southern hemis phere which produces blossom time in early November, Cook reported very few differences in production or handling methods in the two countries. Turkeymen To Meet In Salem Nov' 29 Corvallis Thanksgiving rolls around with an abundance of turkey for the holiday season but with possibilities of some cutback in the nation's turkey crop during the coming year. This is the general trend faced by Oregon turkey growers and handlers who will meet Nov. 29 at Salem for their annual fall outlook meeting. Noel Bennion, Oregon State college poultry specialist, says the day-after-Thanksgiving meet ing of growers, hatcherymen, and industry representatives will size up results of Thanks giving sales, look at the Christ mas market, and draw up an outlook for 1958. The 7:30 p.m. session will be at the Marion hotel. A recent U.S. department of agriculture survey now points to a general cutback of breeder hens for 1958 in the nation's 15 commercial turkey states. The preliminary survey of Oregon growers indicates a reduction next year of 25 per cent on Beltsville hens and other light breeds but a two per cent in crease in Bronze and other heavy turkeys. Main speakers at the outlook meeting will include Ray Gar rett, Salt Lake City, of the Nor best Turkey Growers associa tion, and William Udell, San Francisco, of Ralston Purina company. Farm Prices Rise During Last Month " Corvallis Oregon farm prices rose in October, gaining back the ground lost in September, according to Mrs. Elvera Hor rell, extension agricultural econ omost at Oregon State college. As a result, farm prices in the state are now at the same level as in August about 1 per cent higher than a year ago Mrs Horrell said. In contrast to the local situation, national farm prices turned downward. Reviewing reports from the U. S. department of agriculture Mrs. Horrell found that livestock prices held about steady in Ore gon, as lower prices on most meat animals and wool offset price gains in dairy products and eggs. Prices received for farm crops in Oregon moved upward and higher prices for grains, po tatoes, vegetables, and seeds more than offset lower hay. fruit, and nut prices. On the cost side of the ledger Oregon farmers paid less for millrun, mixed dairy feed, lay ing mash, scratch grain and broiler mash. Alfalfa hay cost the state's farmers more last month than in September, but cottonseed meal and soybean meal held about the same. All of these feed costs were lower than in October, 1956. Farm wage rates in Oregon are running higher than a year ago, Mrs. Horrell also reported. Nationally, farm products felt b tightening of the squeeze as prices dipped lower while costs held about the same. Mostly re sponsible for the decline over the nation were lower price tags on most meat animals, oranges, corn and cotton. These were par tially offset by higher prices for dairy products and eggs. Despite the decline, national farm orices are still around three per cent above a year ear lier. Mrs. Horrell said.
