Plan For
Crops Told
Willis C. Boegli, state crop In
surance director, met with Lcw
ii Botens of Henley, Ray Loos
ley of Fort Klamath and Will
Baldwin at Merrill, who are the
crop insurance agents for Klam
ath county under the federal
crop insurance act, yesterday at
tne local aaa ouice.
Boesll outlined the crop insur.
ance resulations and instruc
tions for sales for wheat crop in
surance. He pointed out that ex
perience shows crop insurance
losses from drouth, frost, plant
disease, insects, wind, heat and
migratory birds account for
nmrlv 80 tier cent of all losses
in Klamath county for wheat
previously insured.
Hail has accounted for 4 per
cent of losses and no losses have
been exDerienced yet from fire.
While most farmers think of
crop Insurance in terms of pro
tection from hail and fire losses,
these have caused negligible
damage.
While no crop insurance pro-
gram was in effect nationally
during 1944 and 1945, farmers
have already made application
for as much insurance effective
for the 1946 crop as they had
taken out under all previous
program years.
Congress has made extension
i of the insurance program to
other crops, dependent upon
participation in, and the success
of the wheat insurance program.
If enough farmers show that
they : want federal crop insur
ance and that they want to ex
tend it to other crops, congress
will undoubtedly make such in
surance available.
; Experimental crop insurance
on potatoes has been promised
for 20 counties in the United
States for 1947. This insurance
would be set up on a "cost of
production basis," rather than
on "yields," as in the present
wheat insurance. Potato insur
ance, general grain insurance
and seed crop insurance are the
three that would be most im
portant to Klamath county,
Boegli said. These programs
have been set up and are ready
to be put into effect when farm
ers indicate to congress that
they want such Insurance and
uat they need it.
jj Spring wheat growers have
only until the 16th of March to
make application for insurance
for 1946.

National Potato Letter
Surplus Potatoes Could Be
Used In Canada And France
Surplus removal outlets prob
ably could use most of the pota
toes not needed for domestic
fresh markets if price bulges do
not come too frequently. French
and Canadian outlets can use
much larger volume than they
have been getting if cars can be
made available and the weather
is right for moving volume ship
ments. Two boatloads for the
French already have left Beau
mont, Texas; another cargo is
nearly completed; with the
fourth and fifth to follow as
rapidly as potatoes can be pro
vided.
Latest reports say that Canada
is feeling the potato shortage
due to tne snort Canadian crop.
Canada will be willing to in
crease its imports from the Unit
ed States, possibly to as many
as a total of 10,000 cars. Also,
dehydration is again a factor in
cleaning up the late end of the
stored crop. These are to be
used for relief feeding overseas
and Involve a dehydrated total
of 10 million pounds about
1,300,000 bushels. Most of these
are likely to come from the
areas having the largest surplus
of stored potatoes and the facil
ities to dehydrate them. At any
rate, they win help in the total
movement that is needed to clean
up the crop. New activity is ex
pected in the Muscatine, Iowa,
and Omaha by-products plants
and perhaps some others, as et
forts are made to shift from
scarce grain to potatoes for pro
ducing glucose and alcohol. To
gether, with the fresh market
demand, they seem to indicate
that the late crop clean-up now
is virtually assured.
Supplies
Owners of late-cron stored
potatoes are watching the early
potato prospects which will com
pete with their stocks for the
spring and early summer mar
kets. Production goals set for
the winter through the summer
producing areas, call for 52 mil
lion bushels. Acreages now in
dicated with yields equal to the
10-year average, would produce
just a little more than this quan
tity. But yields in recent years
have been high, so a conserva
tive possibility would produce
about 9.5 million bushels more
than the production Eoal: and a
repetition of the high 1945 yields
would turn out a surplus of over
12.5 million above estimated
needs.
Prospects for these early areas
favor better than 10-year aver
age yields as production has
shifted from low to high yield
ing lands, there has been enough
fertilizer available to meet grow
ers' needs, and good seed has
been plentiful. Weather is the
only really uncertain factor so
markets may be in serious trou
ble before late May. This may
come when shipments from
North Florida, Alabama and
North Carolina move to mar
kets with the-crops from 72,000
acres in California. June mar
kets are likely to be tough with
Alabama, California and both of
the Carolinas going strong, and
the Eastern Shore and some' of
the less important areas ready to
roll.
Currant Movement
Shipments gained only slight
ly during the past week. Total
was 5689 cars 133 cars more
than the previous week and a
daily average of 948 cars. This
is more than markets can handle,
as evidenced by the fact that the
total includes 204 government
cars, plus the Canadian move
ment. . Domestic consumption
cannot use more than 900 cars
daily. By states, there was a
surprising jump in the week's
movement with an increase of
751 cars from the Red River
Valley, 130 cars from Long
Island, 91 cars from South Da
kota and 28 cars from Oregon,
Some other states showed smaller
increase for the week and de
creases from the previous week
were reported as 61 cars down
for Colorado, 163 down for
Idaho, 510 down for Maine, 44
down for Nebraska, and minor
decreases in some other areas.
Demand and Markets
Current market reports gen
erally show up' better than for
some time with further strength
ening reported late this week.
In Maine, demand has been good
with the market stronger at 25
to 30 cents ubove floor. Idaho
demand has been moderate, mar
ket stronger with prices at ex
celling level. North Dakota re
ports fair demand, market
steady, prices 10 to 15 cents be
low floor but with the trend
toward higher levels as govern
ment offers for export give hold
ers more confidence. Colorado
demand is improving, markets
slightly stronger, prices about
5 cents above floor. Wisconsin
demand has continued light with
the market barely steady, price
5 cents under floor for very few
sales. Michigan demand has
been moderate, market slightly
stronger, prices 5 to 10 cents
over floor. Upstate New York
reports moderate demand, mar
ket about steady, prices 30 cents
above floor.
In Florida, new crop prices
have sagged sharply. Lake
Okechobee areas reported $2.60
per bag a week ago now at
$2.40. Florida deal has shifted
to the Ft. Myers are where cur
rent prices are quoted at $2 to
$2.05. Dade county, a week ago,
was reporting sales at $2.40, now
is down 25 cents at $2.15. De
mand in these areas is moderate
with the market tone currently
about steady to slightly weaker.
In the terminals. New York
has held firm to slightly stronger
of eastern old stock with west
ern unsettled and new offerings
slightly weaker. Chicago de
mand has ruled slow, market
about steady for best old stock
with the demand slow and mar
ket weaker on new. Atlanta has
held steady for new, Boston firm
for old with no new supplies of
fered. Detroit Iras,. held firm on
old and dull and unsettled on
new. Minneapolis old offerings
held firm on western and steady
on northern with, now trading
dull. Philadelphia reports slight,
ly stronger oh old with new
potatoes dull and slightly
weaker,
Government buying of pota
toes for exuort to Franco and
Canada may shift within tho near
future from northern and east
ern potato producing areas, to
the west. Maine and Michigan
have supplied a largo part of
the export shipments to date but
these areas o not now nave
sizeable surpluses of .potatoes In
need of diversion.
Appearance of government
buyers in some of tho Mississippi
Volley and western areas in
dicates that recent buying in the
Red Rivor Valley of North Da
koto and Minnesota, for export
to Franco via Beaumont, Texas,
may be shifted . to Colorado,
Idaho and Nebraska potato areas.
It is likely,- however, that the
Red River Valley will continue
to supply sizeable quantities for
shipment to Canada, where the
