FACE EIGHT GERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH' FALLS, ORECU, CONSERVATION PROGRAM FOR 1845 READIED While farmers are carrying out conservation practices under tne agricultural cuuociva- tion program the 1945 program is being readied for early an nouncement. ' The 1945 program has come up from the "grass roots" . through recommenda tionsJto the state AAA offices by the elected community and county farmer-committeemen of the agricultural adjustment agency. It is almost ready to return through these same chan nels of elected farmer-representatives for final adaptation to local conditions by the selection of needed practices from the na tional program and preparation of detailed specifications to as sure high quality conservation returns. Throughout the west, farmers and their elected committeemen have generally advocated that WHAT DO YOU SERVE WITH COLO CUTS? MUSTARD WITH HORSERADISH- .- . . Rt fOOOi ml U HORSERADISH the 1945 program follow closely the . 1944 ACP program. Only minor changes in the program were suggested by the farmer- committeemen wno' urgea mat the program be presented to farmers as early as possible in order .that they' may utilize its conservation assistance to the fullest extent in their 1945 war production and soil-building ef- lorts. Practices emphasized in 1944, and due to be again in 1945, are those that will return the most immediate results in the way of increased food produc tion. N. E. Dodd, chief of the AAA, points out that as soon as wartime requirements permit, American farmers must taKc steps to restore the soil produc tivity wnicn nas Deen drawn upon during the war. This will mean more emphasis on conser vation practices troin wnicn tne nation benefits in long-time rath er than immediate production. Congress has authorized the agricultural adjustment agency to plan a 1945 program for which total expenditures will be approximately the same as the 1944 program. Steadily expand ing farmer participation in AAA conservation practices which im prove and maintain soil re sources has resulted in an in crease in payments to assist farmers in carrying out these practices from year to year. The interior desert country of Australia has been described as "nothing but miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles." DO YOU LIKE BLACK BEBRY JELLY?

SURVEY S IS OREGON FARM SITUATION General Situation: Haying continues over the state with the first crop of alfalfa already out of the way. Shortages of workers able and willing to as sist with grain harvest and hay- ronnrtod bv sonic counties. Pooling of available manpower and equipment among farmers has alleviated this condition to a great extent. Hood River county reports that thinning of pears and ap- nlae In thnt nrpA is nhout 80 complete and should be finished by August 5.
