Va. (UPI Tele-photo) make proper applications for payments under the wool in centive program, Albert Straus, chairman, Jackson ag ricultural stabilization and conservation committee, urged today. The sales record for lambs sold must include the name of the buyer, his signature, and the number of livewcight lambs sold, plus the descrip tion "unshorn." Lamb pay ments arc made only on lambs that have never been shorn to encourage the customary prac tice of selling lambs with the wool on. The chairman emphasized growers should get all their fall sales records together and either keep them in a safe place at home or file them at the ASCS county office. The final date lo apply for pay ments on 1962-B3 marketings is next April 30. but an appli cation may lie submitted any time between now and then. The applications cover wool and lamb marketings from April 1, 1902, through March 31, 1903. Mr. Straus said that lamb feeders particularly should keep accurate records which will establish the length of lime they have owned lambs on which they apply for pay ment. Lamb payments are made only on lambs which a producer has owned for 30 days or more, and the amount of payment Is based on weight gain of the lambs during the seller's ownership. Farmers income and plans are often directly affected by the programs administered in Jackson county by the olccled farnier members of the A'-ri- cultural Stabilization and Con servation committee," said Al bert Straus, committee chair man. Willi the annual com mitteemen elections set for Dec. 7th a review of the work and responsibilities of the men who will represent them is a concern of every farm operator. "As a matter of fact, there are several new programs to be put in effect this year, and some others in the offing that concern not Just ASC commit teemen, but every farmer and every citizen In the county," said Straus. He cited the programs for wheat and feed grains, pos sible new uses of cropland llirough a land-use adjustment program, and the agiiculluml conservation program as ex amples of those with which the men lo he elected will deal. The scope of the present committee's work during the past year has included in Jackson county the adminis tration of wheal and feed grain program diversion pay mcnts totaling $39,178. for 92 growers who diverted 1.356 acres from grain to conserving uses. The committee also admin istered the ACP, w h i c h brought total cost-share pay ments of $50,000, To (arm operators who marie specific conservation Improvements on their land. Farm programs thai apply across a continent with such diverse conditions as exist in the United States are a red challenge to administration by the Secretary o( Agriculture, on whom Congress places the administrative responsibility. "That's why the elected farmer ASC committeemen have been relied on for over 25 years as the vital link be tween individual farmers and Washington." said Slraus. .

This is not Just another meeting of a farmer's organiza tion. It is an organization of all those dealing with Irriga tion and irrigation projects, tion district managers and irrigation district boards who are farmers. It also includes the bureau of reclamation whose watery tenaclcs in the form of irrigation districts stretch throughout the west. But this meeting will deal with subjects which extend much further than agricultural development. Recreation is due for considerable discussion. Some irrigation people have quipped they are considering using all irrigation water for fishing, boating and water-skiing. Since irriga tion reservoirs recently have come under such intensive recreation use, particularly in Jackson county, this re mark does have some foundation. Thursday's congress session, for instance, will Include a talk by Harold Nelson, director of region 1, bureau of reclamation, on "Recreation on Reclamation Projects." Fri day's session will feature a symposium on "Reclamation and Recreation." Speakers will be Andy Landforce, Cor vallis, extension wildlife specialist, Oregon State university; Jack Binford, Portland, executive board chairman, Izaak Walton League; LaSclle Coles, president of National Rec lamation association; John Neidermcycr, Medford area farmer; and Joe Smith, commissioner of the Oregon State Game commission., Chris Wheeler, stale engineer, Salem, will talk on ''Water Master Situation in Oregon." Essentially, his talk probably will point up the failure of some counties to appropriate sufficient money for water perienced water master is a development of irrigation waters in an area. This is also true of irrigation district managers. This area, fortunately, is blessed with excellent men in both categories, We would have liked lo see on the program a talk on the importance and duties of irrigation district managers. However, we expect there will be many informal discussions on this subject during the session. The thought that a district should suddenly find itself without its irrigation manager has almost nightmarish qualities. Water development is not dweller has considerable interest in having free access to large quantities of good water. 1 his will be discussed dur ing Friday's lunch at Kim's rcsturant when Robert L. Swcaney, manager of the Portland chamber of commerce talks on "Urban Interests in Water Development." Tills talk should be officials because it does point in planning; how can new subdivisions be assured of ade quate water? This also pertains to growing small towns such as Talent which receives Talent Irrigation district. This also raises the eternal question as to how much water should be reserved for non-agricultural use. People who buy property with an irrigation ditch running through it or by it become irate when they find they cannot use the water from the ditch if they have no water rights on it. This is when an irrigation district manager must be a diplo mat among many other things. Jackson county is rapidly becoming urbanized. This question may arise in the near future: Should development of the Rogue valley focus on this urbanization and be con centrated on obtaining light industries to support the in creasing valley population? This would mean water de velopment would also be focused In that direction. No, this Isn't a ridiculous which are traditionally agricultural are studying this ques tion. Colorado is one. A group federal program somewhat gram recently adopted by Jackson county determined rec ently that development of Colorado should be away from agriculture. A group of scientists there said further agricul ture development would not fully utilize the stale's po tential. They pointed out the state already is basically urbanized since Colorado residents lend to cluster in settle ments in spots where good land and water are available. Original settlers In the state turned to farming simply because this is what they had been doing before they came to Colorado, these planning consultants said. Too often this means a pattern of economic development is adapted which does not adequately fit an area or state, they said. Recommendation from this group was that Colorado be developed for light industry, as a recreation and retire ment area. Water should be reserved for these uses, they said. Consider pear decline, the increasing problems faced by the pear industry which is the leading agricultural industry in the Rogue valley and the rapidly growing trend toward farm mechanization -which requires large blocks of farm land. Think, also, of the increasing number of subdivisions being developed on former agricultural land and the grow ing number of farmers subdividing their land. Then, turn the yellowed pages of old newspapers which have articles on the early day agricultural development of the Rogue valley. This should indicate the general develop ment trend. Makes you wonder, doesn't it? And bear in mind, loo, that Colorado produces some of the finest beef cattle in the country, Just as this valley produces the finest pears. Speaking of early day agriculture in the Rogue Valley, the boss recently found a Jan. 1, 1914 Mail Tribune as he was straightening up his desk. It slated: A large portion of the valley is already under irrigation system of the Rogue River Canal company, a corporation owned by Patrick Welsh, J. D. Twohy and R. K. j Neil.

Some other areas of scientists operating under similar to the planning pro Colored Photos Displayed Showing Snow Surveying A display of colored photos of snow survey operations throughout the United States is now on exhibit at the First As the rainfall continues, the water that the area re ceives can be viewed with mixed emotions. It is very comforting to know that the storage dams are being rapidly filled so there will be ample water for the generation of power and for irrigation purposes during the coming growing season. Unfortunately, all of these good things do not happen without some bad things taking place at the same time. It is now possible to see within this relatively small valley at least three types of erosion taking place that is due largely to two factors. One factor is the presence of man and what he has done to the soil cover, soil contour and soil profile. The other factor in erosion of soil is, of course, an excess of water. It may be added that the amount of wa ter we have received as rain fall would not be so much of an excess without the adverse activities of man in the management of soil. Gully Erosion Gully erosion is occurring both on cropped and non- cropped areas. However, the predominate erosion type that is taking place on cropped land in this area is sheet erosin. This is erosin that oc curs over large surface areas of land. It is not as dramatic to the casual observer as is gully erosion, but in terms of tons of top soil and pounds per acre of plant nutrients lost, it is the more serious of the two types of soil erosin. Sheet erosin is taking place when muddy or murky water can be seen running off of any soil surface. It occurs fre quently in summer when ex cessive irrigation water is be ing applied lo the land. In fact the majority of irrigation water applications to clean cultivated land in this area re sults in both sheet and gully erosin. Pasture lands and mea dows largely escape this type of damage from applications of irrigation water or rainfall. The third type of erosion takes place largely on sandy or other very light soils. This is the loss of large quantities of plant nutrients, mineral colloids and organic matter by the leaching action of water as it percolates through he soil profile. Home owners who use wood as a source of heat during the cold months should save the wood ashes and use them as fertilizer during tthe summer. It is a gross waste of plant nutrients lo pour wood ashes inlo a creek as a disposal method. Our natural resources are reaching the oceans at too rapid a rale without any furth er assistance from man. Place the ashes in a convenient pile for winter storage. We will indicate how the ash can be used for fertilizer next spring. Lost Art The American civilization has brought people many good things as well as some that are decidedly bad. In the process of evolving our civi izalion w'c have lefl some good h u m a n institutions stranded along the way. One of these lost items is the art of conversation.

The exhibit, sponsored by the Soil Conservation Service, was erected with the help of Arnold Harrang, farm field advisor tor First National Bank of Oregon, Medford branch. The picture scries was prepared for showing in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D. C. Frames for exhibiting the photos were supplied by the bank. Organizations assisting with field measurements for the snow survey in Jackson county are Pacific Power and Light company, Medford, Rogue River and Talent irri gation districts, U. S. Forest Service and the National Park Service. Compile Data Those organizations com piling data and issuing the monthly water supply outlook report are the soil conserva tion service, Oregon Agricul tural Experiment station and the Oregon state engineer. The snow survey method of forecasting irrigation water supplies in Oregon began in 1928 under the state engineer. Snow courses were laid out in the Rogue drainage basin in 1929. In 1939 the soil conser vation Service became the coordinating federal agency. Snow surveys involve taking core samples of the snow at various locations in the drain age basin. A hollow tube is used to obtain the core which is a sample of the entire depth of snow blanket. A calibrated scale is used to weigh the sample. The scale converts the weight reading to inches of water in the snow blanket. It is estimated 85 per cent of the irrigation water sup ply in the II western states originates in the snow on mountain water sheds. Gives Prediction Location of the snow cover and the amount of water it contains helps predict when and how much water will run off. Snow on lower slopes will generally melt first and increase the amount of early spring runoff. Jack Hoffbuhr, MID manager, said the snow survey information assists irrigation districts in making the yearly plans as to the amount of water available for the year and when it will be available. A snow blanket one foot deep which contains one inch of water over 10 square miles will supply irrigation for ap proximately 1,700 acres for the season. Power companies use the information to deter mine when and how much water will be available for power generation. Should Stimulate, Broadcaster Says Chicago - (UPI) - An Ohio farm broadcaster said recent ly that farms news should be presented in a form thai will stimulate the thinking of lis teners. Clyde Kcathlcy, of WRFD. Worthington, Ohio, said that if farm directors do this, they will "remain virile and effec tive as broadcasters." Kcathlcy spoke during a panel discussion of impartial reporting and editorial com ment at the annual convention of the National Association of Television and Radio Farm Directors (NATRFD). Kcathlcy said farm direc tors should gather all possible facts on every subject they discuss. But the final presen tation, he said, should be made in a way which stirs the thinking of the audience. Earl Sargent, KWFT. Wich ita Falls. Tex., said farm di rectors should try to mold opinion in fields like adoption of improved farm practices. But on controversial political issues, he said, farm directors should give "all sides of the issue." lion and as visitors people are dined and entertained by games or television, but rarely by means of conversation. Without doubt this loss has resulted in increased business for taverns, bowling alleys or any place where people can buy entertainment. . . ' " 10th & South Fir fiH:M:H:3 'jlPuljf Farm & FARM Woodlot Facts By DICK OLSON Oregon State Farm Forester This is the time of year that small woodland owners need to take special notice of their stands of small trees. Christ mas is fast approaching and with it, the ever present Christmas tree trespass. As stated by several private and public timber holders at a recent Christmas tree tres pass meeting, Christmas tree stealing is down four or five times from the high of a few years back. This healthier pic ture exists because of the co operative work of several pri vate and public agencies. Probably the most influential is that of the State Police. One Christmas tree grower told me that last year he was stopped four times between Grants Pass and the California bor der. He was not unhappy about this, however, because he knew that this type of checking was helping to pro tect his future crop of trees and also helping the condi tion of the local and Califor nia markets. Landowners should keep a close watch over their lands from now until Christmas. No doubt the most critical time is on week-ends. If anything suspicious is observed the State Police should be notified at once. If at all possible, the best time to catch the trespass er is at the time the cutting is being done. Once the trees are loaded and on the road, it may be hard to make a case stick. Signs Available Trespass signs are available, free of charge, from the South ern Oregon Conservation and Tree Farm association, 518 East Main street, in Medford, Ore. These signs, coupled with a locked gate, when possible, should help eliminate an un desirable situation. Christmas tree sellers, cut ters andor transporters must observe the following state law: ORS 527.040 "Harvesting timber for commercial purpos es without a permit, or refus ing to discontinue such opera tion after notification is pro hibited." No person shall fail or refuse to obtain a permit for tiie harvesting of timber or other forest tree products for commercial purposes. A landowner or cutler must obtain a miscellaneous forest product harvesting permit from the state forestry depart ment. A tree cutter or trans porter (transporting more than five trees) should have a permit or bill of sale with the permit number on it. If the transporter is the landowner ! he should have the Harvest ing Permit and a deed of own ership. A list of tree sellers and buyers is available at the state forestry headquarters in Med ford.

It will be answered by four panelists who will define it in terms of composition, mi cro biology (its microbes such as bacteria), production and regulations. The sanitarians are Ore gon's official milk inspectors, employed by the state and the two cities with their own milk inspection systems, Port land and Eugene. The school, arranged by Oregon state de partment of agriculture, in cooperation with Oregon Stala university, will be held in Wilhycombe hall on the OSU campus. For inspectors, at tendance at the school is re quired by law. It is open also to fieldmen and representa tives of the dairy industry, with about 60 persons expect ed, according to V. N. Sim mons, who is in charge of milk: sanitation enforcement for the state department of agricul ture. Simmons arranged the. program. Principal guest speaker will be Milton Held, San Fran cisco, regional food and dairy consultant for tthe U. S. Pub lic Health Service. Held will discuss revisions of the USPHS milk ordinance and code. Other subjects on the pro gram deal with the signifi cance of psychrophilic bac teria in milk nd dairy prod ucts, cleaning and sanitiz ing dairy equipment, milking machine damage to udder tissue, and individual vs. open housing for cattle. If "psychrophilic bacteria" leaves you cold, you're hot. This is the cold-loving group of bacteria and they are com ing into more attention in the dairy world because today's refrigerated handling extends milk life far beyond grand father's wildest dreams.
