IOHT HERALD AND HEWS Thursday. Jan 7, 1S4S STATE TO GET LESS BAN HARVEST HELP Oregon will receive less Mexi can harvest help this year, and Klmath county will be propor tionately cut in this type of la bor, it was brought out at a meeting of the Potato Growers association at Henley Tuesday. Last voar's allocation of Mexi can nationals for Oregon was 8200. The anticipated allocation for 1945 for the state is 5000. which is 200 less men. Klamath countv received about 750 men in 1944 and this year's antici pated allocation is about 600. However, wiui uic uvr.oHK"- farm needs, this number will probably be sufficient for the narvesung, naiuj u. .. American laborers, of course, .;n ho oivpn Difference over foreign labor and prisoner of war labor. Ron Turker. emergency farm labor assistant of Oregon State college, and O. B. Hardy, dis trict representative of the war food administration, in discuss ing farm labor situations with 162 potato growers at the meet ing held in Henley, advised growers planning to house their own laDorers, xo sian ooiuuu necessary articles now. Blankets, cooking utensils, ana oiner ma terials are becoming more djffl cult to obtain from the govern ment and other agencies, it was stated. Ninety-four contracts were siened bv erowers at the meet ing, for Mexican national labor for the coming narvesi season, contracting for 1115 men. Because of lack of funds. Tuck er stated, only one migrant camp will be available for Klamath county. In other areas perma nent migrant camps are being set up, he said, grower associ ations taking an active interest in obtaining camp sites. The as sociation . purchase, or secure long time leases, on the sites for establishing camps on a per manent basis. Farm housing of workers. Tucker pointed out, is the best and most efficient method used, in considering a long time labor program. Milton-Freewater growers or ganization fcas already purchased a permanent camp site, con structing a large utility building, permanent tent bases and water facilities. Estimated complete cost of the camp is about 1900. The Dalles and Coburg axe other areas in the state where growers are working on a simi lar basis. Both Merrill and Malin com munities were interested in hav ing the migrant camp here, and in a vote taken by erowers, it was decided to have the loca tion, at Ialin. Construction of the camp will begin in the near future. Hardy discussed the contract of the WFA with growers. Due to the cut in the budget for the 1945 program, he pointed out, temporary camps for Mexican laborers cannot be located closer than 25 miles apart, and must be operated with a minimum of 100 men for not less than 45 days. One large base is planned to be located at the old Merrill CCC camp site. If Bonanza growers can show where they can support a camp under the WFA requirements, one might be established there, Hardy said, but the prospect is rather doubtful at the present. Scientists say that nicotine in creases the sugar content of the blood.

Most everyone when planting sows tho seed little- thicker to allow for. those seeds which fall to germinate or for those plains that may bo killed or dla when very young. Thinning plants to the desired distance should bo done early before they make much growth or become crowd ed. The "Klamath Planting Plan" shows the proper spacing of the various vegetables va rieties within the row. This lit tle bulletin can assist you to get the desired spacing. The largest and most vigorous plants should be loft and the weaker ones re moved. Tf thinning: is delayed until tho plants are largo, the remaining plants will bo rela tively weak. This Is caused not only front tho crowded condi tion of tho plants, but from dis turbing and loosening the plants whllo thinning. It Is difficult to thin when (ho plants are large as a number of plants urn up rooted and their feeder routs broken whllo thinning, Thinning should bn done when the plants aro small and when the soil Is moist so thut the roots of the plants which aro left lo grow will bo disturbed as litllo as possiblo.
