Pulls, through that canal to the
Lost river channel, through that
channol to Ttilelake, and thence
by tunnel and channel tn a point
near Trout lake, In the Pit river
area. A. supplemental route
would carry additional water
through Klnmath straits into
Lower Klamath lake, In reverso
through tho Modoc tunnel Into
Tulo lake, and thenco hy Ihe now

These routes can easily bo
traced on tho map and are Indi

Either route would deliver
Klamath water Into the Shasta

While no cost figures have
been announced, it is understood
the channel costs would run to
$100,000,000, and that the
Sprague Klvor dam would cost
many million more.
Klamatli basin people are fear
ful that once tho channels are
constructed at huge cost, they
would mean that a certain
amount of Klamath water would
ho committed to the Sacramento
for all time, and that such a
commitment would stand oven
though conditions developed
thBt would call for the use of
that water tn the Klamath basin.

fachaupp and Tnomas outlined
steps to be taken in re-organizing
the district which was surveyed
and partially completed about 25
years ago. Part of the land has
since that time obtained water
by pumping, but much of the
area which lies above the "D"
canul has cither been dry farmed
or has laid Idle.
Two units have been in opera
tion and water will reach about
450 additional acres this season
on the third unit which will re
quire a lift of approximately 70
feet.
Tentative plans call for a res
ervoir into which water may be
run to eliminate night irrigation
and operational costs of the sys
tem will be met by water users
of the individual units in ratio
to needs of each unit.
Two pumps operated during
the last few years will be aug
mented by three otners before
tne irrigation season starts.
Veterans' agricultural advisory
committees are now organized

of the state, reports w. u
TeuUch, assistant director of the
ObU extension service, Know
ing completion of the first half
of a series of meetings with
agricultural planning committees
and sub-committees scheduled
for all counties.
The .veterans advisory com
mittees have been organized as
sub-committees of the central
county groups. They are an out
growth of a request made last
May that the extension service in
each state establish such volun
tary county committees to render
service to returning war veterans
interested in agriculture, Mr.
Xeutsch explains.
In the 16 counties where the
planning groups met, the vet
erans' advisory committees
agreed upon functions and pro
cedure and arranged to extend
their service through the ap
pointment of community vet
erans' advisers. Each farming
community in the state will have
either a member oi the main
county committee or a commun
ity adviser to discus the local
agricultural situation with le
turned veterans.

Production
Established Here
For '45 Farmers
Last Thursday, representatives
of all agricultural organizations
in the county, county and com
munity AAA committeemen,
and representatives of various
branches of the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, met to con
sider the Klamath county 1943
food production program. Pro-
auction goals for tne united
States and Oregon were review
ed and an estimate arrived at
as to what production by Klam
ath county farmers should be in
1945. The following is estimated
production in Klamath county
for 1945:
Oats .
....10 Increase
Barley
. 2 increase
Kay production same as 1944
Wheat
..8 increase
Rye
..same as 1944
Potatoes
2 increase
Austrian winter peas ...10 inc.
Alfalfa for seed.. .20 decrease
Red clover same as 1944
Alsike clover 20 increase
Edible peas 40 decrease
fresh vegetables ...same as 1944
Trend of livestock products
was estimated as follows:
Milk production per cow
for 1945 plus 2
Milk cows on farm Jan
uary 1, 1945, as com
pared with January 1,
1944 minus 8
Egg production same as 1944
Turkeys raised in 1945, plus 15
Sows to farrow in spring,
1945, compared with
spring, 1944 minus 20
Cattle, calves on farms
January 1, 1945, as com
pared with January 1,
1944 minus 5
Sheep and lambs on farms
January 1, 1945, as com
pared with January 1,
1944 minus 16
The increase in acreage of
crop land will be brought about
due to some additional pasture
land being farmed and addi
tional land being put into crop
for the first time. Discussion of
production problems indicated
farm labor, equipment, fertil
izer, repairs and season might
affect this forecast to some ex
tent.
While goals established for
the state and nation-generally
call for farmers to again do
more with less, Ray Loosley,
acting chairman of the county
AAA committee, presiding at
the meeting, stated that such
goals were possible of attain
ment because they were estab
lished by state and national

It was pointed out by O. A.
Henderson, county agent, that
the facts and figures used as a
basis for the above estimated
1945 production were taken
from crop report of the U. S.
bureau of reclamation of the
Klamath project, AAA sign-up,
and production figures for 1944
and proposed plans for 1945,
shipments of produce from the
1944 season, as well as the quan

cated some - decrease in live

Cash Wheat Market
In Portland Weak
PORTLAND, Feb. 8 (AP-WFA)
The cash wheat market here
failed to echo the firmness in
mid western futures markets last
week and was independently
weak, the war food administra
tion said today.
Ordinary types declined one
to one and a half cents a bushel
compared with a week ago, but
higher protein qualities held
about steady and unchanged.
Moderate to light demand from
buyers at coast terminals and
withdrawal of the CCC support
price were reflected in the weak
market. .
Offerings from growers it
country points were extremely
small, since current bids are
well below guaranteed redemp
tion prices. Mills, however, still
showed interest in high protein
milling types.
