Mar GROWERS EYE FARM LABOR Farm labor was discussed by the Klamath Potato Growers asodation lit meetinss Friday night and most of the day Sat urday. Plans were worked out for the association in carrying out the 194S farm labor pro gram. At this meeting prelim inary requests were made for Mexican laDorers in iuamam county for harvesting the 1945 crops. The association directors has asked that their requests be certified oy ine county agents office and sent to the war food administration for Mexican lab orers for this year. Karl Dehl inger, president, of the Klam ath Potato Growers association said, "It will be necessary that members of the asociation give some thought to their labor needs for this falls harvest and be prepared to sign a contract with the association at a meet ing aranged for at the Henley high school gymnasium Tues day, June 5, at 1:30." The Mexican labor program contract terms and other con ditions necessary to obtain Mex ican nationals will be fully dis cussed and growers will be told of their responsibilities as estab lished by the war food admin istration and emergency labor program for the state of Ore gon. The association contract with the government will be read as well as tne contract tnat the association must have with individual growers using Mex icans. The establishing of a migrant labor camp is another important matter the directors will bring up at this meeting. One migra tory labor camp is all that will be available for Klamath coun ty this year and the 'associa tion will have to decide wheth er this camp will be located at Merrill or Malin, as both dis tricts have made requests to the association for - it. The direc tors are coin? to call for a vote of paid members of the asocia tion to make this decision so construction can get underway immediately. faul . carpenter, specialist in farm organization and coopera tives of Oregon State college. has been invited, by the direc tors to attend tnis meeting and will: discuss what other farm organizations and associations of growers are doing for them selves throughout the state of Oregon.

During the past few weeks, the shortage of meat products, especially acute in the large cities, has brought the meat situ ation onto the front pages and has resulted in innumerable-interviews, hearings and state ments from all parts of the coun try, "Created Scarcity" In the first place, the present scarcity of meat and poultry is not due to the inability of our farmers to produce all we need. The farmers have done their part, and are still willing to meet the nation's food require ments. The packers, processors and distributors have carried on to the limit of their business re sources in spite of strangling regulations. The present scarcity ... is a created scarcity brought about by mismanagement. The normal pre-war inventory of cattle was 66,000,000 head. Present statistics reveal that 82, 000,000 beef cattle are at present on the ranges. Why, then, even though we may have enough ra tion points, are we unable to purchase a steak or a roast at the corner markets when the ranges are so over-crowded with beef cattle? Why, then, is beef not moving to the markets in greater quantity, and why is the quality so poor? :Ihe statement'.' repeatedly made that military needs are the cause of the beef shortage is not true. If meat regulations dur ing the past three years had not had the effect of disrupting the entire meat industry, it is a cer tainty that war requirements and a reasonable civilian meat sup ply would have been produced. The normal procedure in mar keting beef is that the producer sells the range animals to feed ing companies. The feeders buy the cattle and keep them from eight to 12 months, during which time the animals are fed, and as livestock people say, are "fin ished" for the market. The feed lots are now nearly empty. Feed ers have not been buying and feeding cattle for months. They simply cannot pay the. necessary costs incident to preparing the animals for market, and then sell them at ceiling prices and come out without losing money. This is still true even though millions tee present were: E. C. Lemler, Mark Evans and Ed Geary. These directors have asked that every paid up member attend the meeting June S and bring other growers who wish to pay their dues and become members of the association. This is a particularly important meeting and every member is -asked to be present and take part in developing a successful labor program for 1945.

Pork Production Chtcktd For a little while, about a year ago, pork was plentiful. This was due to the fact that we had a bumper corn crop and farmers discovered, after studying the ceiling price for corn and the support price of hogs, that they could sell their corn to a better advantage in the form of pork than they could be selling the raw corn . Hence, the hog production increased and pork was available in the markets. Then, last October, the hog sup Dort nrice was ordered reduced sharply. Farmers found their supposed profits in hogs were turning into losses, and immedi ately stopped raising hogs. Re cently, the farmers have been guaranteed a satisfactory price on hogs, and the production of pork will increase, but the In crease will not be reflected in the form of pork in the butchers cases for manv months. The story on mutton and lamb is even simpler. Sheep raisers have been going out of business at such a rapid rate during the past several months that the rate of decline in the sheep popula tion of the country cannot be given statistically. . . , The rea son is simply that producers have discovered the ceiling prices on wool, mutton and lamb will not yield them the cost of production or more. "Conflicting Order." Our present shortage of poul try is" the" direct result of con flicting -and senseless govern ment orders and directives. No other branch of the food pro duction industry has been so harassed by .one government agency after another. The cli max came, on .April 24, 1944, when the war food administra tion suddenly issued order num ber 98 freezing all stock of corn in the five important corn belt states.. Not a grain could be sold except to the government. . . . and chicken raisers couldn't get a pound of cracked and ground com on which to fatten their millions of young chickens. The result. . , our commercial sup plies of poultry are now the low est they have been in two dec ades. ... . . That is the quick and perhaps over-simplified story of what has nar ened.to your meat and pout try supply. Beef should be plen tiful,, but regulations have kept it from the market. Hogs have been regulated to scarcity with adequate future production de layed for months. Mutton and lamb is disapi . ..ring, and the poultry industry has been reeu- lated up and down so much that producers are discouraged. . .' The war food administration, the department of . agriculture, the commodity credit coroora- tion, the armed services and some other departments have been interested in the subject of flavor Sp TENDER YOUNG VEGETABLES AND MORTON'S SALT AT YOU tf(3 CflAfl ACER'S Sm MM ' dyousuKCANSmy.

Neared In Bond Drive WASHINGTON, May 24 tfi') Sales to individuals in the 7th War Loan drive were announced by the treasury today as $1,UU5, 000.000. Of that amount $1,301,000,000 was in scries E bonds, represent ing 32.5 per cent of the 4-blllion-dollar E bond quota. The Individual figure Is 28 per cent of the 7-billion-dollar quota for individuals. Nine days of the seven-weeks drive have elapsed. production, but the combined ef forts of all of these agencies have resulted in more confusion than accomplishment. The OPA is particularly at fault because it has not maintained a balance between prices and the cost of production. While other food prices have been allowed to in crease sharply, the prices of meat nave been held down.
