PAGE EIGltT SPUD GROWERS URGED TO GET Potato growers who have not a yet contracted for potato stor age space are urged by the coun ty war board to do so at once. With an estimated 35 per cent Increase of potato acreage and estimated 400,000 sacks of po tatoes, for which there will be no storage space available in the Klamath basin this year, it will be to the advantage of those growers who do not have definite commitments on storage to make arrangements soon- Those growers who plan to build cellars are urged by the county war board to get their applications to the war board as soon as possible as consider able time is sometimes necessary to secure approval of these ap plications. For the benefit of those farm ers who plan to build cellars, the county war board wishes to call attention to the following regu lations as set up by the war pro duction board. (1) A permit must be secured to build on any farm construc tion, other than a house, where the total cost,' including labor for all construction during the year comes to over $1000. Ap plications are to be made at the county, war board office, room 209, Federal building, Klamath Falls, Oregon. (2) To build a house a permit must be secured if the total cost, including labor - for all houses built during the year is over J200. (3) Even though ihe building cost is less than $1000, if some item on which priority assistance is required, such as electric wire, will have to be purchased, then a permit will be required the same as if the cost was over $1000. (4) If the total cost of the con struction i over $2500, a draw ing or plan must accompany the application. NITRATES TO BE 9 Farmers of Oregon and other parts of the country as well are going to profit by the ability of the makers of synthetic nitrogen to provide more nitrates than are; required by the munitions industry, reports Art King, ex tension specialist in soils at Ore gon State college. At the same time they are go ing to have to get used to using an unfamiliar form of nitrogen because the surplus from the munitions industry comes in the form of ammonium nitrate in stead of the familiar ammonium sulphate or sodium nitrate. Am monium nitrate comes in the strength of about 32 to 35 per cent nitrogen but it has the char acteristic of absorbing water from the air whenever exposed. It also may not be mixed with organic material because in such form it is highly explosive. King explains. Indications now are that the supplies of nitrogen fertilizer for next year will be 25 per cent more than last year, which means they will be the greatest in history. Because of this pros pect there is likelihood of re laxation of the present rigid re quirements restricting chemical nitrogen to certain crops- War Board Has Meat Subsidy Information Oregon livestock slaughterers may obtain information on ap plying for payments under the meat subsidy program from county USDA war boards, C. R. Tulley, state meat marketing su pervisor for the Oregon USDA war board, announced this week. While USDA war boards have no responsibility for the opera tion of the subsidy program, they have been requested by the de fense supplies corporation to as sist in the distribution of forms and regulations and to supply in formation on the principal provi sions of the program, Tulley ex plained. Any person slaughtering in one month 4000 pounds of meat, live weight, is eligible to apply for the subsidy payment, the reg ulations provide. This applies to all types of slaughterers, butch ers and local slaughterers. Think less about when this war will end and more about how to end it. Adml. H. R. Stark, U.

Hog Loss May Be Averted By Proper Feed Practices Many new small farmers who are going into the hog business on small scale and are building up through one or two breeding sows are reporting loses in their pig crops. These losses could generally be averted by the right feeding practices, especially at farrowing time. Some inexperienced farmers and small farmers who have not raised hogs previously arc feed ing too heavily, reports Dr. W. H. Lytle, state veterinarian with the state department of agricul ture and who has been called to make a number of recent investi gations which lead to the con clusions already .stated. Most experienced hog raisers give the sow only warm water on the day she is about to farrow. and the next day follow with only a little light gruel feed made either of bran and ground oats or similar foodstuff. The third day a slightly heavier feed but still light liquid food, may be given. The feed may be made increasingly heavy each day un til - the seventh or eighth day when the normal diet should be fed- It is always well to have plen ty of green food, either clover or grass, available for the sow, par ticularly preceding and during 1943 Wheat Crop Still Protected By Insurance Discontinuance by congress of the federal crop insurance pro gram will not affect insurance on the 1943 wheat crop, hence insured Oregon growers will re ceive full protection on their crops through harvest, the state AAA office reported this week. Clyde Kiddle, crop insurance assistant, said that all losses to insured crops will be settled promptly, and premiums will be collected on 1943 contracts. He reported that wheat crops on more than 4000 Oregon farms are insured this year. New Regulations on Slaughter Released The war food administration today issued new regulations for custom slaughterers, - which re quire them to hold permits to do any custom slaughtering and to obtain a statement of infor mation from the owner of the livestock to be slaughtered. The new provisions became effective July 1. The required statement giv ing the owner's address, his slaughter permit number, the type and number of livestock killed and the total dressed and live weight must be signed by the livestock owner and the cus tom slaughterer.

The department points out that Swine Management in Oregon," Extension Bulletin 550, issued by the extension service at Corval lis, is available to new swine growers through any county agent's office or the central of fice at Corvallis. City Restriction ' Halts Work at Dayton Cannery DAYTON. July 22 (Ph-An or der by city officials restricting the movements of Mexican and Japanese-American workers was blamed by their leaders today for a work stoppage at the Blue Mountain Canneries, Inc., plant. Representatives of federal agencies and the cannery con ferred in efforts to get the men back on the job. The original order prohibited any movement by Mexicans or Japanese-Americans in the res idential districts and restricted them to this farming town's Main street. It was issued by Mayor Gus Hansen, Police Chief Pete Anderson and the sheriff. V-Gardeners Warned About Seed Mixups . Many victory 'gardeners who plan to save their own seed for next year will need to find out which are safe to save and which will be likely to be damaged by cross pollination, says O. T. Mc .Whorter, extension horticultur- alist. In general, beans, peas, lettuce and tomato seed can be saved with no advance precau tions. Sweet corn may be con taminated if grown within 250 ards of other . com. Varieties ot cucumDers, musKmeions ana watermelons will each cross with other varieties, but the three do not intercross.

Brandt, head of the dairy department at Oregon State college, in com menting on present strong prices for cattle in the dairy industry. Brandt commended a recent statement by H- W. Norton Jr., secretary of the Holstein-Fries- ian association of America, in which he warned of the danger of allowing attractive prices to affect breeding standards. The association is advocating an en tirely sound, practical program that applies well to all dairy cattle breeders in Oregon, said Brandt. "High prices and strong de mand are not conducive to pro per culling of the herd," said Norton in his statement. "When prices are high many breeders will raise calves that would bo vealed during normal times, knowing that they will bo able to sell them at a profit, while high prices prompt them to sell animals as breeding stock that should go for slaughter. Such sales reflect no credit on the breeder and are bound to result in dissatisfaction and loss to the purchaser. Green Feed Vital In Hen Rations Green feed has long been rec ognized as a valuable part of poultry rations and is one of the most practical ways to conserve f&d, says Noel L. Bennion, ex tension poultryman at Oregon State college. The amount of feed required to produce a dozen eggs can be reduced from 10 to 20 per cent if an adequate sup ply is available. Alfalfa is the most universal source of green feed, he says. Most poultry mashes contain from 9 to 10 per cent alfalfa meal. In addition to the alfalfa in the mash five to six pounds of succulent green feed or root crops, such as carrots or man gels, fed daily for each. 100 lay ing hens is a valuable supple ment to the ration. Young suc culent green feeds are palatable and are a good source of pro teins, minerals and especially vitamins. Grain Storage No Problem This Year CORVALLIS, July 22 (fP) Oregon farmers appear to have no problem in providing storage space for this year's grain crop, according to an AAA survey re leased this week. It shows space enough In the seven principal wheat producing counties for almost 16a million bushels of the 1943 crop. All is in interior warehouses and in farm storage facilities, and' does not include a considerable amount of space available in terminal elevators.

CATTLE MARKETS : The heavier supplies ot cattle being marketed throughout the country In the Inst low weeks continued at North Portluud Monday with 16S0 head offered locally. Tho market was uneven with grass fat stuff strong to 29 cents higher, " while fed steers were down slightly from last weeks close. Good to choice fed steers brought $19.90 to $16.00, with grass fat stuff ranging from $11 to $14. San Francisco reported the market steady with two cars of medium 1100 pound grass steers selling up to $13.79. No fed steers were offered. At Chicago prices strengthen ed somewhat with strictly choice heavy western fed steers topping the market at $16.79, though most offerings moved at $13.79 to $16.00. The marketing and movement of cattle from the west was light during June. Good feed and un settled conditions combined to hold stock whero It was, except for some movement from feed lots and dry areas. The former active demand for cattle to run on pastures and ranges has slowed down and there is little tendency on' the part of western cattle feeders to buy or contract stock for the coming feeding season. Feeders hesitate to buy until the feed price and supply situation be come more settled. Cattle slaugh ter in June was only 68 per cent of last year and 84 per cent of average. In most parts of the west cat tic are generally in good to very good flesh as ranges and pas tures have responded well to late rains In most of the western states. In .Oregon cattle were slow in recovering from the ef fects of a severe winter and late spring and are slightly below average in condition for this sea son of the year. SHEEP AND LAMB MARK ETC - Arrivals of sheep and lambs at Ndrth Portland last weekend totalled 2890 head, but only 1800 of these were offered for local trading on a steady market Good to choice spring lambs brought up to $13.29 with a few closely- , sorted - lots selling at $13.40.
