    Operating Budge!
Of $298,351,
Told by Hatfield
(Continued from Pago 1)
T h. es e recommended ad
justments, the governor point
ed out, provide for a total
operating budget of $298,-
351,000.
In discussing the building
program the governor said six
agencies requested S35 mil
lion from the general fund
while his predecessor recom
mended only $2,495,000 for
three of these agencies.
Hatfield recommended $7
million for the system of
higher education to permit
construction in the next two
Snd one half years of class
room buildings at Portland
State; science building addi
tions at the University of Ore
gon and Oregon State college;
medical research buildings at
the medical school in Port
land and heating plant addi
tions at Oregon College of
Education and at Oregon
State.
Priorities of the Board of
Higher Education, he said,
suggest projects at Eastern
Oregon and the University of
Oregon medical - school, de
serve early attention.
Fairview Home Funds
The governor recommend
ed $5,126,000 to cover costs
of the Board of Control build
ing program.
This is in contrast to $344
000 in the printed budget for
new buildings for the state in
stitutions. - -
, Hp would allow $842,000
for Fairview home to provide
two inmate buildings, a new
water tank and an additional
Vinilr
Other recommendations in
clude $199,000 for mainte
shorn and heatine plant
expansion at the Oregon Deaf
school and $2 million lor es-
ontial nnrtions of phase
three at the new correctional
institution in Salem.
Also recommended was
$40,000 for planning for the
next development of uam
masch State hospital near Wil
sonville. Hatfield urged the legisla
tures to authorize the start
of a separate women's prison
by providing $567,000 for the
first wing of a separate prison
for 60 women.
Property Acquisition
His revised budget includes
$500,000 for acquisition of
property in the Capitol Mall
and $600,000 for necessary
utility extensions for" build
ings in the Mall area.
As the first step in the con
struction of a new Supreme
-niirt hnildine. Hatfield sug
gested a national architectu
ral competition for the design
of the new court building,
which is destined to go into
the Mall.
He said this was the man
ner in which plans were ob
tained for Oregon's state
capitol building.
Hatfield's total general
fund building program aggre
gated $14,621,000. He pointed
out that federal funds in ex
cess of $1,900,000 will be add
ed to this sum and the Board
of Higher Education will be
adding another $9,405,000 in
buildings, such as dormitories,
which are self-liquidating.
"I have recommended a
building program which we
can support and one which
we need," Hatfield concluded.

Agents Tell How to
Kill Moss in Lawn
Moss in the lawn may indi
rata nnv one or more of sev-
jeral things, most important
being lack of sou fertility, ac
rnrdins to county extension
agents. Others are too much
shade, a very acid soil ana
soil comDaction. Maintaining
an adequate fertilizer program
is essential, it was expiainea.
An amplication of 75 to 100
lbs. of lime per 1000 sq. ft
will solve most acid sou con
ditions.
Moss in the lawn can be
killed either by raking it out
hv hand, heavv ammonium
sulfate application of 8 to 10
pounds per 1.000 square feet;
copper sulfate spray of five
ounces in three or four gallons
of water ner 1.000 square feet,
or a commercial moss killer
to be used according to direc
tions on label .
The agents explained that
the ammonium sulfate aDDli-
cation should not be watered
after applying. They said that
it will burn out the moss and
that the grass will recover
from any burns.
