At the meeting in Portland last Friday (AugUHt 15), a minority of the board favored still larger offer­ ings in-shell. But the majority of the board was concerned with chances that larger offerings would break the in­ shell market and reduce returns to growers. The majority pointed out that the salable percentage could, with the approval of the ancestry, be in­ creased later if warranted by trade de­ mand. This percentage cannot be lowered later. The recommendation is subject to review and modification by the Secretary of Agriculture before the set-aside becomes effective. In­ terested parties wishing to submit SALEM. ORE.

It's news about a medicine famous for relieving such suf­ fering ! Here is the exciting news.

NW I’rocexMors Ooen On Bartlett». Processors in Portland and Yakima opened prices on Bartletts during the second week of August. Prices being offered were $50 a ton for No. l’s, 2% inches and larger, and for No. 2’« $32.50 a ton. Dried Prune Crop Harvest Start« Harvest of California dried prune crop got underway in most districts of the state during the second week of August. Producer price ideas were generally reported strong and only a few scattered crops have been con­ tracted. Packers have been offering to buy at firm prices or on open price contracts with or without minimum guarantees. Most packer offers, made on a firm price or as guarantee, were on a 10-cent basis for size 34/71’s. This is one cent higher than last year’s opening price. It equals the 1950 opening price, when California’s pro­ duction was 9 per cent larger. Most of Oregon’s Italian prunes grade out in the basic size range of 34/71’s. National Hour Cherry Crop Falls The U. S. Crop Reporting Service in its August 11 release estimated the national sour cherry crop to be some­ what smaller than expected in early June and July. The August estimate placed production at about 100,000 tons compared to same 140,000 tons expected a month earlier. Most of this reduction is due to heavy winds and rain» in Michigan. That state’s production was cut nearly one-third. Estimates have also gone down in New York, Wisconsin, and most other states. Oregon’s sour cherry crop, now esti­ mated at 2,600 tons, is down some 400 tons from the July 1 estimate. Board Recommends 31% Surplus The Filbert control board has rec­ ommended that the salable percentage for this year’s filbert crop be estab 1 lished by the secretary of the USDA at 6(1 per cent and the surplus per- ' ventage at 34 per cent. The board estimates that these percentages 1405 N. Front St. 8—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE Mow Lydia Plnkham'i works It h*M a calming“ and soofhiny effect on the uterus . . .

Six of every ten Linn county per­ sons live in ureas without library service as compared with about two ' in ten (22% to be exact) in Oregon. The reason for Oregon's better li­ brary coverage is found in the fact that of the state's 36 counties 13 have . county libraries. These are Clacka- I mas, Clatsop, Deschutes, Klamath, | Multnomah, Tillamook, Hood River, Jackson, Josephine Lake, Malheur, Umatilla and Wasco. The first six of these have book-1 i mobiles. With such a mobile library I ! of a thousand or more volumes, n county librarian can take books to all parts of a county, making scheduled > | stops in rural communities, neighbor­ hood centers, or wherever several fam­ ilies can come to a central point to select books. Books are also taken to rural schools and to town libraries. County support thus provides li­ brary service for rural people living outside those cities and towns which already have their own libraries. Oregon, with such county library systems in more than a third of its counties compares favorably with the ' rest of the country. There are 735 county libraries in the 3070 counties of the U.S. In the state of Washington, 17 of the 39 counties have county library service, all started within the past ten years; all but three have book­ mobile«. some large counties more than one. California, a pioneer it. the movement, now has 52 county li­ braries.

We would like to remove this lor papering. Can you tell the best way to go about it? -J. J. B . Woodside, N. Y. ANSWER: Unless covered with waterproof paint, the surface can be well soaked, scraped as nearly level as possible, and when it has dried, sanded smooth. A power sanding ma­ chine used on the dry wall will accomplish the same purpose. In both cases, fill remaining depressions with spackling compound to level the wall (or paper. QUESTION: My house, stuccoed with a scratch coat and an outside coat of %-inch white sand and cement, has broken at the chimney and two corners. I’ve had this fixed once, but it has broken off again. Can you offer any solution? -J N., Carbon. W. Va. ANSWER: Stucco repairs often fail due to application of stucco to oily or dirty surfaces. Best way is to apply strips of metal lath to the broken area, anchoring them to the ma­ sonry, then applying new stucco to this lath. QUESTION: I added a room to my brick home, but could not match the shingle«. Could you tell me where 1 can get a «tain to match the asphalt shingles on the rest of the house? —T. W., Salt Lake City, Utah ANSWER: Neither water nor oil stains are apt to penetrate waterproof asphalt shingles — at least with any degree of permanence. Paint that would adhere and color would also be quite conspicuous — probably worse than no stain at all. ♦ QUESTION : Would painting the bare wood with aluminum paint before I put up insula­ tion improve its effectiveness? -E. A. B.» Chicago, III ANSWER. While aluminum paint does pro­ vide a certain amount of heat-reflective qual­ ity, it cannot be accurately measured when so applied. Regular foil insulation leflects a measurable 90% by tests, making further treatment unnecessary. Thia column is prepared by the edi­ tors of THE FAMILY HANDYMAN MAGAZINE as a service to home owners.
