.. HX HERALD AND NEWS Thursday. July 12, 1943 livestock Picture In Basin Bright, Report Cattlemen S The livestock picture in Klam. rath basin this year is bright Sine, according to cattlemen and Jlvestock associations. Grazing !"and range lands are the best in liyeurs, due to abundant May trains. II; There are approximately 61. .TpOO head of beef cattle and 6000 lead of dairy cattle in the basin i5iow. Sheep number about 45, MOO, less than the usual number lor the county. They are all shorn, and lambs promise to be heavy this fall. Only about 10,000 hogs are being raised in the area this vear, about half the number in 1944. Turkeys in the county number about 12.000 and baby chicks are numerous. Beef cattle brought up from California winter grazing ar rived in good condition and were put out to graze on lush ranges and Irrigated pasture lands, KID DIRECTORS BACK SHASTA El CLAIM Klamath Irrigation district di rectors have adopted a resolu tion supporting the Shasta View irrigation district in its argu ment with the reclamation bu reau over a new contract for the Shasta View district, it was re vealed this week. Shasta View, recently re-organized, has refused so far to ac cept a contract offered it which provides for additional pay ments for water furnished above 2i acre feet. Arthur Schaupp, counsel for the district, has sub mitted a brief claiming that the proposed charge is not in ac cordance with law and supreme court rulings. In support of the Shasta View contention, the KID directors adopted the following resolu tion: "Whereas, Shasta View irriga tion district is now seeking a contract with the United States under what is known as, the Warren act, and "Whereas, the United States has tendered said district a con tract, the terms of which require that if more than specified amounts of water per acre are Used, additional payment must dc maae inereiore, ana "Whereas, the laws of the United States and of the State of Oregon, as well as ruling of the supreme court of the United States, provide that beneficial use shall be the measure of water of which users thereof are entitled, "Be it resolved, that Klamath irrigation district request our senators and representatives in congress to use every effort to revail upon the secretary of the iterior to grant the Shasta View Irrigation district a contract pro viding that payment not be re quired for so-called 'excess water" and further that they use every euort to prevail upon the secretary of the interior to amend contracts with the other irrigation districts on the Klam ath project to eliminate require ment lor payment tor so-called 'excess water.' " Two Basin Jerseys Get New Owners Two registered Jerseys have changed hands recently in Klam ath basin area, according to American Jersey cattle club rec ords. Jean Tucker, Bly, has pur chased Hercules Queen Victoria 148976, and Raymond Hasselt, Merrill, has purchased Hercules Young Sybil 1489675. The AJCC records each change of ownership, each production rec ord, and each type classifica tion of Jerseys In the 48 states of America. More than 36,000 Jerseys found new homes last year. about 23,000 at Fort Klamath meadows and Klamath Marsh, and around 3000 at Bly and Lan gell valley. Loren Miller and son, Jerry Siscmore, D. O.

Garner Lundy, William Kit tredge, Stanley Johnson, Antone Suty and other stockmen are deep in their mid-summer activi ties. Numerous grasshoppers threat en some pastures, cattle owners report. They have reached the winged stage and control meth ods are inadequate. Wet weath er prevented satisfactory con trol operations when they were at the larvae stage when con trol is possible. Extensive activity in ranch purchasing in the Klamath basin is reported by local banks, a large proportion of the land be ing purchased by farmers wish ing to increase their acreage. Many businessmen are also pur chasing ranches for investment, and some out-of-state ranchers are also buying land for cattle raising with plans to settle here. Weekly Markei Trend Editor!

Salable supplies of cattle were only 1800. or 1000 head less than a year earlier. Good' grass steers sold up to 515.75 and medium heifers to SI 4. Good cows were 512 50 to $13. Hogs were firm at ceilings with only a few of fered. SHEEP AVD IAMB MAXKET Sheep numbers were up somewhat, totaling 2500 head. A few small tots of selected spring lambs brought $14 25 but the bulk of the good to choice offerings went at 513.50 to $14. Receipts of sheep and lambs at North Portland have been running well ahead of a year previous. For the month of June they totaled 28 400 which was 9000 more than in June 1944. Since January 1- arrivals amount to 103.000; nearly zh.uw more man during tne urst , six months of last year. A recent significant development In the lamb situation was the action of the OPA whereby class 2 slaughterers may get as large a quota as they wish. This applies to any class a slaughterers who may or may not have had a quota previously. Livestock and marketing specialists at Oregon State college say this recent action by OPA means that consumers should be able to buy all the tamb that they wish or that they have the ration points to buy. Ration point values, how ever, have not been changed. They also point out that since about half the western Oregon lambs go to California the situation there will continue to In fluence the movement of Oregon lambs. WOOL MARKETS The Boston wool market was quiet the first week of July. Some demand continued for staple fine and half-blood original and graded domestic wool. Short fine and medium wools were verv slow. No sales of northwest wools were re ported but a large line of graded staple Colorado wool with a shrinkage of 58 per cent sold at a grease price of fifty cents. Some half-blood graded staple shrinking 54 per cent sold at fifty-four cents in the grease. Australian wool production for the 1944-45 season, ended June 30, was ad versely affected by a drought of major proportions which still persists In im portant sheep and wool producing areas. Present indications are that wool clips n the immediate future will show an even greater decline, as sheep and lamb losses have been exceptionally heavy. The decline of 14 per cent in wool pro duction In the season Just closing will bring production below the Billion pound level for the first time since 1938-39. The current decrease In pro duction, however, is far outweighed by the larse stocks on hand from preceding wartime clips. Australia la the world's moat Important S-T-R-E-T-C-H!

Short, chairman of the county AAA committee. Farmers soon will be able to obtain all-risk federal crop in surance on winter wheat for the first time since 1043. The crop insurance program was revived by congress late in December. As under the previous pro gram two contracts are being offered on winter wheat. One protects the farmer's production returns up to 75 per cent of his average yield, the other up to 50 per cent. Both are for three years, covering the 1946-48 crops. Short said that every wheat farmer In the county will have an opportunity to purchase this all-risk protection on his winter wheat. Meetings are be ing held in the county to set up sales organizations. Farmers may apply for insurance through their county AAA office or through sales agents appointed by the county AAA office. Pre miums are payable annually by cash or by premium notes. While farmers have until Sep tember 30, or until wheat is seeded if seeding is done before that date, they are urged to sign up as soon as possible to as sure the program's operation in this county. Before the insur ance is effective in a county, ap plications covering at least 50 farms must be received. Ratios Of Valuation Told By Tax Group SALEM.

No More Weeds With 2'4-D The new weed killer 3'4-D Is being given extensive tests thin year, Harold B. Schieferstein, supervisor in charge of grass hopper control, weed and rodent control, staled today. The formula 2'4-D, which was given so much publicity Inst win ter in farm magazines and OSC bulletins, is one , of the new growth-regulating hormones and is used in powder form, one pound to 50 gallons of water. Sprayed on weed patches with a power sprayer. It stops weed growth immediately. After several days stents and leaves have a tendency to curl and twist. The object of the new killer Is to go down into the roots and kill the plants. If the plants can be killed be fore they seed, the coming crop would be substantially reduced, Schieferstein pointed out. Al though tliis herbicide takes long er than others, complete eradi cation can be effected by its use, whereas ether herbicides) are usually effective for only one year at a time. 2'4-D is a selective herbicide,' affecting some plants more than, others. Blue grass has almost 100 per cent resistance to the; spray, and Russian knap weed i and white-top show strong re sistance. Weeds of the more sus ceptible variety are broad leaf annuals including morning glory, Canada thistle, water hemlock, bull thistle and leafy spurge. Concentrated experiments with S'4-D are being conducted In Langrll valley and Bly vicin ity where the leafy spurge is plentiful, and extensive work with the new spray la being done throughout Klamath basin. Results look promising at the present time, Sehloferstoln mid, but definite outcome of experi ments will not bo known until next year. A full report on the situation as tnr as obtainable will be released this fall, he stated. Possibilities of 2'4-D are le gion, the control supervisor ad mitted, and although tne sub stance Is hard to obtain now and its use is in experimental and elementary stages, It Is con ceivable that a good commer cial weed crudicator for lawns OREGON YIELDS 19 MILLION WHEAT BUSHELS WASHINGTON, July 12 W A corn crop of 2,689,328,000 bushels and wheat production totaling 1,128,600,000 bushels were forecast today by the agri culture department on the basis of July 1 conditions, This year's wheat production, will bo developed from It snd on tho market in the near future, the combined winter snd spring wheat crops, compares with 084,652,000 bushels Indicated a month ago and with 1,078,647, 000 busliola lint year, which broke all records to that time.
