Harry Jackman of- Malin has
been named county chairman of
the George R. Hyslop Agricul
tural Research memorial and
expects to be able to announce
the complete list of committee
members soon, he announced
this week.
This is part of a statewide
movement of farmers and busi
nessmen connected with agri
culture to raise a substantial
fund to serve as a perpetual
working memorial to the late
Professor Hyslop of Oregon
State college, who devoted most
of his life to the betterment of
Oregon crops.
As soon as the committee is
completed, plans will be carried
out to see that every farmer in
Klamath county knows about
the memorial fund and has a
chance to contribute to it any
amount he may choose.
Only the , income from the
fund will bo used to help fin
ance experimental work in im
provement of Oregon crops, thus
continuing the work of Pro
fessor Hyslop. The money will
do double duty, says Jackman,
as graduate students will be ob
tained to do as much of the
work as possible, hence they
will be helped in getting an
education in Oregon while they
help solve Oregon problems in
me i arm crops iieia. -
FACTORY
MUSTS!
Walter Hannon, head of the
Hannon Refining company, said
today that he is certain the com
pany's plant near Mt. Laki will
be re-built in time to begin oper
ating at the time of the potato
harvest this fall.
The Hannon plant burned
down several months ago, inter
rupting . production of starch
from low-grade potatoes.
Hannon has been actively at
work since, attempting to get
the way cleared for materials
and labor to re-build. He said
today that at last the way ap
pears clear for reconstruction.

FAVOR FARM
PARITY BILL
By CLAIR JOHNSON
WASHINGTON, June 15 (P
Congressional approval was pre
dicted today for house-passed
legislation to guarantee farmers
parity prices a step which Rep.
Pace (D-Ga.) termed "the most
important action for agriculture
in two years." .
Farm leaders of opposing fac
tions in both chambers joined in
supporting the proposal which
Pace successfully submitted to
the house yesterday as "a sub
stitute for and improvement on"
the controversial Bankhead
Brown textile amendment to the
price control act.
The Georgian declared his
plan "without increasing con
sumer costs one cent, will pro
vide 50 to 75 million dollars
yearly to cotton growers, and
Reduced Barley Crop for
1944 Forecast by USD A
Barley production for this
year was forecast this week by
the U.S.D. at 299,533,000 bush
els, compared with 322,187,000
bushels last year and a 10-year
average production of 256,350,
000. Production of oats is Indi
cated as 1,193,410,000 bushels,
based on June 1 conditions.
Last year '1,143,367,000 bushels
were produced and the 10-year
average production was 1,028,
280,000. This year's rye crop is indi
cated as 31,608,000 bushels, com
pared with 29,711,000 bushels

proportionate returns to many
other agriculture producers."
Cotton, wheat, rye, peanuts
and eggs would be the major
items on which farmers would
get immediate price boosts if
the measure becomes law, Pace
said.
He added that the amendment
"specifies simply that a pro
cessor must certify to the OPA
that he has paid the farmer par
ity for agricultural commodities,
or if he does not do so he must
sell the finished product at only
90 per cent of ceiling prices."
(Parity is an arbitrary price
calculated to give farmers a pur
chasing power equivalent to that
of some former favorable pe
riod for agriculture, usually.
1909-14).
Rep. Hope (R-Kans.) declared
"Pace's plan would do every
thing congress possibly can to
guarantee farmers a parity price
on all their products. If it is
properly administered, I think it
will be a great forward step."
Klamath Man May
Be In Invasion
Possibility that the brother of
a local woman may be involved
in the European invasion, was
voiced today by the sister, Mrs.
Esther Shreeve, 906 East Main,
when she thought she recognized
his picture in the invasionphoto
that appeared on the front page
of The News and Herald Wednes
day depicting soldiers aiding a
war correspondent with his
equipment.
.. The man is PFC G. W. Peter
son of Portland, and while iden
tification is uncertain, there is a
strong possi'Dilitv that he Is the
man in the photo.
FOOD METHODS
AGREED ON AT
CONFERENCE
General agreement on recom
mended processing methods for
different foods to insure botli
quality products and safety for
the homemaker was readied lit
tho state conference on home
food preservation in Portland
last mouth, according to Mrs,
Winnifred K. Glllen, Klnnuith
county home demonstration
agent.
Whilo these recommendations
are for Oregon conditions, they
are much the snino as- those
adopted nationally and now in
cluded in a new United States
department of agriculture bul
letin, "Home Canning of Fruits
and Vegetables." Oregon liomo
niakcrs nro advised, however, to
depend more on publications of
Oregon Statu college, as these
take into account local condi
tions. The six processing recommen
dations agreed upon at Portland
follow:
1. That tho hot water bath
method be used only for can
ning acid fruits, rhubarb and
tomatoes.
2. That the steam pressure
cooker be used for processing
all non-acid and low-ncid food
products such as vegetables,
meats, poultry and fish.
3. That the open-kettle method
be used only for such products
as jams, jellies, preserves,
pickles and relishes.
4. That oven canning Is un
safe and not recommended for
any product. The results arc
too variable since the method
is dependent upon the correct
working of ttcat control devices
and uniform distribution of heat
within the oven.
5. That tho steam-bath method
is . not recommended since it
often results in inadequate pro
cessing. 6. That the pasteurization
method : is recommended for
fruit juices. For best quality,
fruit juices arc packed at tem
peratures not exceeding 180 de
grees F.
Where pressure cooker time
tables include a choice of cither
a 240 degree or 250 degree
book, lower temperature is rec
ommended for a quality pro
duct, except in the case of green
leafy vegetables.

Chemicals
Cultivation mix boon tho most
practical, or at least the most
successful method of uttack In
tho past and still remains so.
However, there Is a place for
chemicals in any weed control
program. Of tho various chemi
cals used as herbicides for the
control of weeds, t h o r o are
three which work well under
Klamath county conditions.
They ore sodium chlorate, car
bon bisulphide and dlesel oil,
Ulosol oil, classed here us n
chemical, gives excellent con
trol on all weeds when sprayed
on under a pressure of from
S00 to 300 pounds, through n
nozzle of a typo which will
break up the oil Into a dense
fog which will envelop and
penetrate all purls of the plant
above ground. Oils lighter In
body than, dlesel oil ure not so
.satisfactory. Whilo there is
some actual eradication from
the use of dlesel oil, It Is quite
slow, there being llltlo appar
ent results for several years,
which seems to indicate that
because green growth has been
kept down the roots have
starved out. This is much the
same as the clean cultivation
method in results.
Sodium chlorate a salt. Is
effective on most weeds except
whito top, on which results are
apt to bo poor. Sodium chlorate
is recommended only for patch
es where cultivation is not
practical, as it has tho disad
vantage of killing tho soil for
periods of from three to six
years, depending upon the
amounts used. The muterlul Is
dusted on in tho dry state In
the full of the year and left for
the winter moisture to carry
Into the soil. It kills as it pene
trates. Stock should not he
grazed on areas which have
been treated with sodium chlo
rate as it is poisonous to it and
inflammable. A permit to pur
chase this material for weed
work Is no longer required.
Carbon bisulphide is a highly
volatile liquid chemical which,
when injected Into the soli and
on contact with moisture, dif-

A brief summary of weed
work in Klamath county the
past year is as follows: 030
acres of noxious weed Infested
ground was cultivated for weed
control; 2420 pounds of .sodium
chlorate were used, principally
along county roads: KI3 gallon
of carbon bisulphide were used,
nearly all for experimental pur
poses; 20,401 gallons of dlesel
oil wcru used along roads,
