Vets Apply
For Vork
On Farms
With veterans applying at the
rale of eight and 10 per day at
the farm labor office for agricul
tural work, C. A. Henderson,
county agent, composed a letter
to farmers in the county re
questing their aid.
"The request for workers on
farms and ranches is naturally
far below the number of re
quests from workers at this time
of year," Henderson pointed out.
In this letter he asked the co
operation of farm owners in
finding some work for veterans
during this slack season.
"It seems," Henderson sug
gested, "that if everyone made a
special effort to use an extra
man for maintenance of equip
ment and other winter work,
quite a number of these veterans
could be absorbed until regular
farm work opens, up." This
plan of using men during the
. slack season would be advant
ageous to the farmer also, as
he would have someone whose
efficiency could be depended
upon when spring cultivating
and planting require additional
help.
Experienced
An unusual number of vet
erans registered at the farm
labor office have had practical
farm experience so that the farm
er would not be contending with
entirely "green" help. This type
of work is particularly suited
to veterans during their transi
tion period from the strains of
war to normal civilian lives.
The time before the rush of
outdoor work starts, could be
well employed in mending farm
equipment, preparing insecti
cides and planning the year's
work, Henderson suggested, and
an extra man might very well be
used.
About 1400 copies of the let
ter proposing use of veterans
i were mailed to farmers In Klam-
ath county from the agent's of
fice. i." i; .

Conservation
Needs Survey
Will Be Held
County and community AAA
committeemen m c t Tuesday
afternoon with lending farmers
and representatives of other
farm agencies to discuss an over
all conservation needs survey of
the county, which is to begin Im
mediately. AAA community
committeemen will meet with
representative farmers of their
respective communities to make
estimates of local needs. These
estimates will be summarized hy
the county committee and sub
mitted to the state office in the
original together with a sum
mary and county estimate. Every
county and state in the ' union
will submit such estimates to the
national office.
All matters pertninlng to the
development and maintenance of
Klamath count's agricultural
resources will be covered in the
survey. Among other things It
will show total needs for leveling
cropland, for irrigation changes
and developments, for drainage,
acreage of green manure and
amount of fertilizers necessary to
maintain and rebuild our soil re
sources, need for stock-water de
velopments and other range im
provements to provide full use of
range feed for livestock.
The amount of such work
which will be accomplished by
the districts, individual farmers
or without any outside help will
also be estimated. The report
will be subject to futuro animal
rc-upprulsals and will give agri
culture a basis upon which to
appraise its present position and
judgo whether wo are tearing
down our soil resources faster
than we are building them up.
Those present were Arnold
Bodtker, field service man from
the state AAA office, and. Bob
Weir, state AAA committeeman,
Durrell Short, Will Baldwin, Ray
Loosley and J. R. Ratliff, county
committeemen were present, and

119 Million
Bushels Of
Spuds Stored
According to the latest check
by the U. S. department of agri
culture, there are over 119,000,
000 bushels of Irish potatoes in
cold storage, an increase of 15
fier cent above last year's hold
ngs. However, some markets
may not be well supplied be
cause growers and distributors
are having difficulty obtaining
sufficient refrigerator cars to
move their storage holdings.
It is hoped that a good part
of these stocks can be moved
before the new crop of potatoes
comes on in volume. Texas and
Florida are already shipping
their early varieties, and the
supply will be increasing as the
weeks go by.
It looks now as though the
new crop will be very plentiful.
Indications from the farm front
point to an acreage of early crop
potatoes 13 per cent larger than
that recommended by the USDA.
The greatest gain in plantings
will be in the high yield areas
of the country, so by April there
may possibly be a potato sur
plus. PRESIDENT JUMPED JOB

801 Spring-
The Butter Deal
Your grocer hasn't any Crater Lake butter for you and probably won't have
until the spring grass comet.
You want to buy Crater Lake butter and above everything else we want to
tell you Crater Lake butter.
The price of butter was to set that it not only has discouraged the butter
industry, but has almost killed it. Other farm products have been allowed
to go to far higher comparative price levels while butter prices have re
mained the same.
Feed prices have advanced steadily since the start of the war. Dairy feed
has advanced $14.00 a ton since V-J Day alone.
This area is to a greater disadvantage than most any place we know due
to the extremely high prices available for other farm crops that can be
grown to advantage here. '
Local production of cream for butter manufacturing has now reached the
vanishing point. Our butter production is now less thon 10 of 1940.
For an insured future supply of dairy products in this area the prices must
be adjusted and the price of feed stabilized there is no alternative.
