By C. A. HENDERSON I
County Agricultural Agent I
The final report of potato pro- j
ductlon for 1041 shows thla year's .
crop considerably below average, j
An average crop for the nation is
about 370 million bunhelfi,
wlulo this punt year's crop is
Indicated ua 337 million
bushels. In 1U40 the four Pa
cific coast states of Oregon,
Washington, Idaho, und Cali
fornia, produced 02, 175,000
bushels. Tho report shows that
this year's crop from tho same
four states Is only 33,8711,000
bushels, a decrease of 8,300,
000 bimhcls from that of lant
year. This is a reduction of
about 13 H per cent. Tho estl
mato of the Oregon crop de
creased 1,300,000 bushels from
November 1 to December 1.
(irowera In the Klamath dis
trict fell throughout the year
that the Klamath crop was
way short of tho bumper crop
of 1010, and perhaps even bc-
Xht- figures now
the Klamath pro
ject and accurate estimates of
small ocrciigo off the project.
Indicates that growers' opinions
were quite accurate. in the
three counties comprising the
Klamath basin, considerable de
crease has taken place.
Klamath county has 10,073
ucres thw year as compared
with 11,102 in 1040: Modoc
county had 3171 acres as com
pared with approximately 4000
ucres In 1040; while Siskiyou
county has dropped from 431H
acres in 1040 to 3000 acres in
1041. The acreage for the en
tire basin Is reduced from IB,
300 in 1040 to 17,215 In 1041.
Yields, too, are considerably i
lower than the all-time high of !
1040. Thut year the average ,
yield was 420 bushels per acre.
This year the average yield
will be about 330 bushels. ;
Another encouraging feature
la the fact that notwithstanding
the shortness of the crop, ship- ;
mcnts have been relatively !
heavy throughout the season to
date. This, of course, indicates
that the amount of potatoes on 1
hand at this time ki much, much
smaller than was the case a
year ugo.
On tho whole, the general
quality of Klamath potatoes ;
was good. While considerable j
rain occurred during mid-sum-
mer, causing some irrigation ,
trouble, tho weather clenred up
luter and was excellent for i
harvesting, field frost Is not ,
a factor In grading, color is :
high, and yields were belter !
than anticipated In the middle i
of the season. Labor was a
serious problem but the crop
was harvested In record time
with no undue seasonal loss.
This is about the first year j
since. 10311 that the potato grow- i
er has had a real opportunity ;
to smile. i
II is Interesting to note that
decrease In poUito acreage in I
the Klamath district has mostly I
been devoted to the production
of alsiko clover, this crop show- j
ing a tremendous Increase tins j
year. Other new crops of
courso will account for some
pBrt of the decreased potato

reports.)
CATTLE MARKETS
Tho cattle prices In North
Portland were about steady on
Monday, when 2400 head were
offered locally. Hcst demand
was for tho medium weights
ranging from 000 to 1150 pounds,
which brought $12.50 to $13,
with a few of the best fed loads
lopping at $13.10. For heavier
weights weighing up to 1234
pounds, $12 was paid. Although
the San Francisco market was
.strong, the top price was about
25 cents below that at Portland.
The Chicago prices on fed steers
and yearlings were slightly high
er, with best fed yearling steers
topping at $14.50.
Closing prices for the year
1041 were up approximately
S2.50 compared with those of a
to' $11. In July the prices start
ed up again and kept climbing to
tho present top of $13.10.
SHEEP AND LAMB MARKETS
Although there were 3300
head of sheep and lambs received
at North Portland, only 1500
were offered for sale locally.
Quotations were mostly 25 cents
higher, with a few even up 50
cents to a top of $12. Two loads
of fed ewes brought $5.85 to
$5.00. At San Francisco the mar
ket was strong with a top of
$12.25 and at both Chicago and
Omaha prices advanced from 25
to 50 cents.
Sheep and lamb market dur
ing the year have been marked
by high prices at the opening of
the spring lamb trade In April, a
slump In July to around $9.50,
by a steady climb since that time
to around $11.50 late in Decem
ber. A year ago lambs were
bringing a top of only $8.50 at
North Portland. Prices on ewes,
however, show no such big
change as the present quotations
are only slightly higher than
those of a year ago,
HOO MARKETS
Hog prices Joined the proces
sion of other livestock quotations
and advanced 15 to 25 cents at I
North Portland when only 1650
head of the 3850 received were
offered for sale. Good to choice
170 to 215-pound drive-ins sold
mostly at $12.25, with heavier
sizes bringing $11.50 to $11.75.
San Francisco reported the
market up about 40 cents, with a
top of $12.75, while at Chicago
a slight rise of 13 to 25 cents
moved quotations to a top of
$11.70.
A year-end review of hog
prices for 1941 shows that pres
ent prices compare with a top
of $8 at North Portland at the
beginning of January a year ago.
Later in the month they reached
$9, then went to $8.85 in Feb
ruary. Since that time the price
trend has been mostly upward,
reaching a high of $13 in August
and September, Present prices
are around $4 above those of a
year ago.
WOOL MARKETS
Sales of domestic wool at Bos
ton last week were limited large
ly to moderate quantities needed
for Immediate consumption.
These sales were made at firm
prices near the top of ranges
quoted last week. Moderate
quantities of territory wools of
average to good French combing
length were moved at $1.10 to
$1.13, scoured basis. Strictly
good French combing wools with
some staplo length were quoted
up to $1.15. Original bag wool!
of average to good French comb
ing length brought $1.10 to $1.12.
We had prepared ourselves
slowly and unconsciously for
this eventuality. There need b
no fear of any mental break

TAR in the Pacific has
( changed Honolulu night
life overnight, according
to word received here
this wceK . . Formerly
noted for Its continuous round of
parties, after tho Pearl Harbor
attack Honolulu at night took
on the appearance of a country
village on Sunday.
Tho reason wasn't so much the
war, as the restrictions resulting
from the war . . The ban on
liquor blacked out cocktail
parties . . Rationing of gasoline
to 10 gallons per month per car
caught most people with only
partly-filled gas tanks to start
with . . And what woman wants
to walk a couple of miles In eve
ning slippers?
Stores In Honolulu reported an
Immediate and decided drop In
the demand for evening clothes
and accessories, cocktail party
supplies, glassware, tableware
and linens , , But tho storo man
agers don't mind so much be
cause they aren't sure when they
can get new merchandise from
the mainland.
WOMEN in active defense
work may have to give up
their dreams of wearing
snappy uniforms , . The
latest nows from Wash
ington, D. C, Is that the OPM Is
getting worried about the sup
ply of materials for uniforms for
tho armed forces , . Manufac
turers are turning It out fast, but
there may not bo enough If both
men and women wear similar
clothing.
It is suggested In Washington
now that women In official Jobs
may be called upon to wear their
usual feminine fashions, with
maybe an armband or some dis
tinguishing emblem . . Some
branches of women's service
probably will d,ress In this way.
. . And such clothes, I firmly be
lieve, will bo much more becom
ing on mnny figures . , Straight,
severe suits can't bo worn suc
cessfully by everyone.

When tho old year passes out
It has a lot of company.
Every usable farm machine
must be put in shape or kept in
top condition If agriculture is to
do Its port In the 1942 form de
fense program, Fred Rucck,
chairman of the county USDA
defense board, warned this
week. The 1942 form defense
goals call for the highest tqtal
production of farm crops, milk,
eggs, and meat products on
record.
With the manufacture of new
machinery and equipment in
1942 sharply curtailed because
of defense demands on supplies
of steel, copper and other metals,
farmers will havo to depend
moro upon existing machinery,
Rueck explained. In addition to
the scarcity of new equipment,
farmers may find tho available
farm labor limited in 1942.
Pointing out that the machin
ery now on farms was used this
year to produce one of tha larg
est crops on record, Rueck said
that the bulk of this same ma
chinery can be gotten in shape
to make the 1942 crops.
In order to do this farmers
should check all farm machinery
and order any needed parts im
mcdlotely, he said. Early orders
offer the best assurance that
farmers will obtnln parts.
Enough steel nnd other metals
will be available to manufac
turers to meet the indicated
needs for replacement parts.
Blacksmith and repair shops
hovo recently been given a de
fense rating of A-10, the county
chairman announced. This will
enable them to obtain materials
needed for form equipment re
pairs. Annually, about 15,000
rhesus monkeys are Imported
