These goals arc sun in a tentative stage and reflect mere ly the desired production as now foreseen, ana noi necessarily ii rial Boals for this state to be ar rived at later in consultation with state AAA and extension service officials and farm leaders. To encourage such a produc tion, the Wf A announces a pur chase and loan program for next year which emphasizes me neea of more hairv vetch and return to favor for certified Willamette vetch as compared with common vetch. Details of these an nounced purchase and loan ar rangements may possibly be mod ified somewhat when all factors are considered, believes k. l.. Donaldson, state AAA executive assistant. As now proposed, the CCC pur chase price for hairy vetch would advance one cent to 12 cents, and common rye grass will be in creased a half cent to 7.5 cents. Certified Willamette vetch is list ed at 6 cents, the same as is paid for common vetch this year. Fur ther consideration is expected to be given this, as common vetch is not listed at all. Crimson clover is continued on the purchase list at 11.5 cents, the same as this year. Although a larger acreage of Austrian peas is requested than this year, a loan rate of 3.5 cents per pound rather than straight-out purchase is proposed. This year Austrian peas were left out of the pro gram entirely until restored to the purchase list after the crop was all planted. "The recommended acreage for each winter cover crop seed represents the acreage necessary to meet the desired production and constitutes a proper balance between these crops and other crops competing for land and la bor in the seed producing areas," the national announcement states. Most of this year's crop in Oregon is being handled by deal ers either on their own accounts or under the carlot purchase plan, rather than being sold by Producers direct to the CCC, lonaldson reports.

GOOD ORCHARD GRAIN CHOPS SEEN IN STATE PORTLAND, Aug. 31 (P) Good orchard yields and favor able grain harvests were report ed today by the U. S. weather bureau in its weekly survey of Oregon crop conditions. Little precipitation except for light rain in small areas of the northwest corner of the state was recorded during the last week. Temperatures were low early in the period, rising to above 90 degrees later in the week. The crop outlook: Grain: Spring grain being har vested under favorable condi tions: irrigated corn progressing. but unirrigated fields in need of rain. Hay: Most fields harvested, ex cept late alfalfa crops; unirri gated pastures very dry; some livestock pastured on meadows and stubble fields. Orchards: Peaches, Bartlett T J WW"'-1" Farm Development on West Side i pears being picked, with gener ally cood yields: Umatilla county harvesting prunes for fresh ship ment; prunes coloring in western counties; nuts thriving. Vegetables: Digging of early potatoes underway; later pota toes maturing wen, aunougn some areas reported serious dam age from flea bettles and light frost injury; sugar beets doing well; harvest of beet seed ad vanced; some onion seed harvest ed; hop picking continuing; beans being canned and packed; some melons moving to market. EARLY SPUD Potato growers of Klamath ba sin plan to start digging, Septem ber 5. The shortage of potatoes in jpacinc coast mantels, uncer tain labor conditions, and in crease in the acreage of the local crop, all combine to increase early digging. The growers are concerned about the number of refrigera tion cars to be available, as they expect to ship much heavier than last year. In September of laid, m cars a day were shipped, but this year shipments could easily be increased ud to 50 cars a day. At the present time, there I are not enough cars in sight to i handle this volume, if and when ! handle this volume if and when it should develop. A cluster of fragmentation bombs carried under the belly of the P-27 Thunderbolt is one of the latest additions to destructive power of this fighter-bomber. . HARVEST IN BASIN EYED HERALD AND NEWS, Tulelako INFEST AREAS Tlie annual check-up on grass hopper egg-beds by the county agent's office is practically com pleted and nil indications point to one of the lurgest grasshop per infestations in years, ac cording to C. H. Henderson, county agent. The infestation is heavy In Upper Klamath and extremely heavy in the Wood River valley, particularly in the western por tion, with scattered egg bods along the Sprnguc and William son River valleys. Lower Klnmath lake shows heavy deposits as does much farmland near Upper Klamath lake. Minor infestations are common throughout tho entire area. Many farmers plan to disc and harrow the egg-beds after the eggs are laid in order to ex pose them to the winter weather. Henderson urges that anyone knowing the location of these beds on their property to disc and harrow these areas as it will save them time, trouble,, and crop damage in 1945.
