Tha meat situation In Klamath

Dr. J. Calvin Hunt, city meat

CEILINGS DEPRESS MARKETS
IN OREGON
THE DALLES, Ore., Nov. 20
As a result of the government
celling, Oregon potato growers
are now receiving 50c per baa
less for their production than at
prices current in early Novem
ber when Iho OPA ceiling price
was applied. The celling price
created a depression In the Ore
gon potato market last week.
For Oregon the November
colling at which the county po
tato shipper could resell was
placed at $2.05 for No. Is, which
means 51.70 plus bags for the
growers on No. Is and $1.40 plus
bags on No. 2s. The ceiling regu
lations win permit an additional
oc hike In December and an
other nickel added In January.

SALEM, Dec. 3, (P) Oregon
would have no milk shortage If
producers of factory milk, which
la nscd for cheese, butter and
other manufacturing purposes,
would equip their barns and
milk houses so they would com
ply with requirements of the
fluid milk market, A. W. Metz
gor, chief of the foods and dair
ies division of the stato depart
ment of agriculture, said today.
"There la plenty of milk in
Oregon," Motzger said. "The
apparent shortage comes from
the channel into which dairy
production Is turned.
"It will not be an easy task"to
get dairies producing factory
milk to switch ovor to the fluid
market. There are several rea
sons for this, the first being that
tho differential In price between
factory milk and fluid milk Is not
great enough to make the
change-over profitable."
He cited cases of two dairy
men In the Willamette valley
who are neighbors. One gets 90
cents a pound for butterfat, less
hauling charges, while the other
gets 70 cents, less hauling
Food doubles its pile after It leaves tha farm. Soma farm prod

Department of Agriculture reveal. There's only about cents

about 14 cents worth of cotton In a dollar thirt.
charges, Both dairymen supply
the same grade of milk to be used
for the same purpose.
"No group is more loyal and
more, willing to do its part than
the dairymen of Oregon, but
choatlc conditions will prevail
just as long as present conditions
continue," he said.
"If dairymen were assured a
fair price for milk that would
cover production costs plus a
reasonable profit, many produc
ing milk for factory purposes
would change over to meet fluid
milk requirements. Dairymen,
Instead of cutting down herds,
would find ways and means of
enlarging them."
Additional removal of milk
cows from this area is aggravat
ing the milk supply problem, ac
cording to local dairymen. One
shipment of 78 Cows to southern
California was reported in the
past week.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3 (P)
County farm transportation
committees will handle the ap
peals of farmers for more gaso
line for farm trucks, the office
of defense transportation said
Wednesday, but will not issue
certificates of war necessity
themselves.
Under the new arrangement,
explained yesterday in an ODT
statement which declared "no
farmer Is to be put out of busi
ness" by the certificate plan,
but the certificates will continue
to be issued and mailed from
the Detroit ODT office.
Recommendation
However, - if a farmer feels
the amount of mileage and gaso
line granted him by the ODT
certificate is insufficient, he
may appeal to his county agent,
county war board, or county
farm transportation committee.
If the committee is convinced
that more gasoline is needed, it
will recommend -that a revised
certificate be Issued. This rec
ommendation will be sent to
the ODT district office for the
