L. Tcutsch, assis tant director of the OSC exten sion .service. The objective of the program this year will be to raise enough vegetables for fresh use and preserving to meet the family requirements for good nutrition and health, says Teutsch.

Contracts signed now will be effective be ginning with spring wheat seed ed and thereafter through 1948.

Premium rates are 0.6 bushels per acre for 50 per cent coverage, and i.b Dusneis per acre for 75 per cent coverage. These rates were established ac- . cording to th county s past his tory of crop yields and losses. Applications will be taken bv Fred Rueck, Bonanza; Lewis Botens, Henley; Rav Looslev, Fort Klamath, and Will Baldwin, Merrill and Malin, who are the local sales agents appointed by the county committee.

Potatoes Go , To Hungry Europe The people of France and Bel gium are eating some of the big 1945 U. S. potato crop this win ter. Heaviest shipments of po tatoes under the government's export program are coming from the Red River valley in North Dakota and Minnesota, with occasional cars from South Dakota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Colo rado, Wyoming and Idaho. More potatoes are expected to be offered for export in these states when the transportation situation improves. Shortage of boxcars has hampered move ment, and severe weather con ditions in the Red River valley has curtailed loading. Because of the low temperature of the eastern seaboard ports, and the ample supplies in the Red River valley, loading operations have recently been shifted to the gulf.
