Optimum temperatures for suberlzalioii range around u de grees. Humidity of 100 per cent Is best. Cool temperatures mid dry air retard the corking over process. High temperature and dry air cause a drying of cut surfaees but do not promote the formation of the thick layer of cork cells that is desired. Cut seed should be held about two days at (10 degrees and In air of 101) per cent humidity. If humidity is low, wet sacks may be used to cover the bags of cut seed, It was staled. Cut Sood Proforrod Some growers prefer single drop seed to cut seed because cut seed in cold, wet springs some times gives poor stands. In such cases it can usually be found that the cut seed was not prop erly suberized, Jendrzejewski suld. Continuous planting of single drop seed, from the same lot of potatoes will result In high per centage of oirus diseases such as leal roll, mild mosaic and vuguse mosaic. Plants affected with these diseases produce smaller potatoes. These small, diseased tubers are concentrated in the small sized single drop grade. Single drop seed from certified stock or slock of comparable freedom from disease is good seed for commercial planting, he said. Support Price Provided For Major Crops Congress Is committed to pro vide price supports of not less than 1X1 purity for basic and Stcagall commodities, according to Arnold Bodtker of the slate AAA office. Under Commodity Credit Corporation lonns sup ports are provided for wheat, feed grains, hay and pasture seeds and potatoes. Alsike clover seed Is support ed by CCC loans carrying a loan rate of 25c per pound. A basic support price for potatoes has been set at $1.00 per hundred pounds loaded on trucks in bulk at the farmer's gate. No interpretation of the exact meaning of this loan rate on po tatoes hus been received. It could mean that no allowance would be made to the farmer for sorting if potatoes are delivered to Commodity Credit Corporation in satisfaction of loans as under the past loan program in which case the actual prico received by the farmer for potatoes on the car would probably be a little un der $2.00 per cwt. If It, is in tended thut the $1.60 per cwt. Is to be on average net basic sup port price with area differentials the support price In this area could be slightly over $2.00 per cwt. Information on what this rate really guarantees farmers for this district will be published as soon as it is received by the state AAA office. Potato Loan Deadline Set Klamath growers are remind ed by BurrcTl Short, chairman of the county AAA committee, that CCC price supporting loans on 1045 potatoes mature on April 1. Borrowers who do not repay llieir loans on or before that date will be required to deliver their potatoes to Commodity Credit, at support prices, the chairman explained. He added that under current market con ditions, most growers will find it to their advantage to repay the loan and market the potatoes. The loan program is credited wllh being a major factor in stabilizing prices of this county's 1045 potato crop, Short reported. By providing guaranteed returns of not less than $2.30 a hundred for No. l's and $1.15 a hundred for No. 2's, the program enabled producers to spread marketing over the entire season, thus avoiding price-breaking market gluts. A total of 57 loans was made to Klamath county growers, cov ering 230,047.5 hundredweight of potatoes, amounting to $253, 359.11. Of this total $83,500.(18 on 81,758.4 hundredweight still is outstanding. Hans Norland insures furni ture. 123 N. 6th St. Stromberg-Carlson Radios. Dorby's Music Co.

Oct Vow I U Weaker Tone Seen In Hay Market A .slightly weaker tone de veloped in the hoy market at Portland the past week and some sales of alfalfa were at a little l.wer price. The range in prices of No. 2 or belter alfalfa was $32 to $34 a ton, compared with $33 to $34 a week earlier, ac cording to the weekly buy mar ket review, prepared by the OSC extension service from USUA murket reports and other data. The situation In California grew worse under an increas ingly urgent demand, a crltlcul shortage of all kinds of livestock feed, and declining pasture and range conditions. No important movement of new crop hay is expected in central California for several weeks. Some hay from the Pacific northwest is beginning to move into Cali fornia. Agricultural Outlook For 1946 Bright Klamath county holds a rela tively favorable position in agri cultural outlook for 1046 and succeeding years, AAA commit teemen were told by C. A. Hend erson, county agent, because It lias distinct production and mar keting advantages for the main casli crops. The immediate prospect for 1040 shows available farm labor to be in short supply, probably similar to 1045. Wages may tend to be higher and prices farmers pay for machinery and supplies will be higher. If prices to be received by farmers for products arc about the same as last year, the net price form income , will be lower. However, farmers of this coun ty, as elsewhere in tho country. are attempting to decrease their cost of production. Improved ma chinery (it and when available), land leveling, better drainage, improved irrigation ditches and irrigation control structures, and weed control all tend to save lobor ond reduce overhead in cost of production, Henderson said. In making crop choices it is essential that crops have certain Advantages over production in other areas In order that the farmer may secure the benefits of the economic trends. Best net cash returns are received for crops for which demand is high. for which there is a market preference in quality, for which freight or transportation costs have competitive advantages and which are high yielding or have greater economy of production. Klamath county is fortunate in that the main cash crops: po tatoes, alsike clover and brewing barley all have these advantages, he stated. Europe Farm Output Good Thousands of farm boys who have been serving in the army in European areas that have been farmed since long before the discovery of America are glod to get back to where tractors are more common. Bui many, say reports reaching the U. S. department of agriculture, have also given thought to the fact that some of the European farms that have been cropped for thousands of years are more productive and yield more to the acre than many American soils that hove been wasted, washed out. or cropped out in a few decades. The Ohio extension service, for example, cites George Kreit ler, Licking county agent, who served in the Po valley in Italy where peasants normally harvest 00 bushels ot wheat to tne acre and other croos in proportion after 4000 years or more of culti vation. Kreitler does not sug gest that Ohio- farmers adopt peasant ways of working, but mums uiej iiugui wti t,...w the value of working manure and crop residues back into the soil, the skillful use of fertilizers, preservation of soil by erosion control, and wise rotation of crops. Italian peasants, he found, made wiser use of hilly land than many American farmers do. Tho burden on the land in Europe has forced peasants to adopt a policy oi nara worn mm no waste, Kreitler observes. Nni-Ksiit v drives. American farmers, he suggests, could well borrow the best of those ideas before necessity compels, and adapt them to a better system of farming that will continue to use machines ond still preserve and improve tne lona.

Thol's up more than 10 per cent over the February report. This increase does not necessarily set a pattern for other early sec lions, bul it deserves watching. Next important acreage report will be issued about March 20, when other acreage intentions will give the first clear indica tion of 1046 prospects as a whole. Supply situation for the next four months very definitely is on the fence. Florida's winter crop is about half marketed, Early spring areas show excel lent condition as of March 1, In Texas, planting was finished ear ly lost month and conditions to date indicate good yields. Ala bama has had excellent weather and the stand and condition are good. California had tough luck in the earliest sections, from which movement will be de layed. That's a break for western late stock, which will enjoy a somewhat longer season on the coast. Trade gossip from Louis iana indicates more acreage than lost year, and considerably more than growers would admit up to a month ago. World food situation has a strong bearing on spud market ing prospects. The United States is trying to save grain for for eign shipment. President Tru man probably meant it when he said "Reach for a spud instead of more bread." Grain will not spoil, packs and ships easily and economically. Idea seems to be let the grain go, and use po tatoes at home. If the idea takes hold, or is forced by new grain orders, net result could be a de mand approaching wartime levels for potatoes, during the next three or four months, until the European spring grain crops are harvested. If early produc tion doesn't get away from us, and the eat-morc-spuds cam paign clicks, what has appeared to be an 6 to 12 million bushel surplus may prove to have been just a bad dream'. Potato grow ers and shippers can help by packing a good product and dis tributors by encouraging retail, prices reasonably in line with farmer prices. Up to now, new potato prices at retail have been high enough to smother demand. Movement Shipments last week were enough to cheer about. Total was 7449 cars, 787 cars over the week before and 1238 over the previous week. The past week's daily average was 1242 cars, of which probably 350 to 400 cars dally were seed, which explains the failure of markets to break wide open. Maine was up 428 cars, Red River Valley 27b, Oth ers less. Declines noted, were: In Colorado, 68 cars; Nebraska 25, Oregon 58, and others less. In the south, Florida jumped by 89 cars to a total for season to date of 1736 cars, while southern Cal ifornia now has a total of 196 cars, with very little moving daily. Texas has total of only 12 cors, but will be more important later this month. Demand and Markets Maine has reported good de mand for three straight weeks, with the market currently slight ly stronger at 35 to 50 Cents over ex-ceiling. Idaho reports fair de mand, market about steady, prices 30 cents over ex-ceiling after being 5 cents higher last week. North Dakota demand has been rather slow, market about steady, prices still 10 to 15 cents under the floor. Colorado de mand has ruled slow, market steady, prices 5 cents over ex ceiling. Wisconsin still is diffi cult to report because of too few sales to establish a market, with demand fair, market slightly stronger and prices for few sales 5 cents over the floor. Michigan demand has ruled moderate, market about steady after strengthening last week, prices 30 cents over floor. Upstate New York probably has few potatoes DANCE Dorrij, Calif.

Many express the belief that markets have advanced too fast and stayed up too long to match up with probable over-all sup ply, Based upon past experience, we should get a reaction sooner or later. Although serious dan ger of a late crop break is over, there appears no real justifica tion for over-ceiling prices any where. Surplus Disposal Government tonnage from last week's shipments amounted to only 36 cars compared with 159 cars the week before. This prob ably indicates cessation of tak ings for Beaumont from the Red River Valley, which last week accounted for only 4 cars. Bal- Full Farm Production Said Needed At a 'meeting Tuesday in the county agent's office, Klamath county AAA committeemen were told by C. W. Smith, assistant county agent leader for Oregon, that full production rather than the all-out production of war years should be a goal until agri culture is restored in Europe. That problem will be given first consideration in those countries and nationdily we should not looK for a long continued foreign demand for food crops. More attention should be given now and hereafter to soil con serving crops to help check the soil productivity loss of war years so the productive capacity of county soil can be maintained in order that it will produce ance of government's cars was scattered over 8 states. Reports say the Muscatine glucose-alcohol plant is ready to take spuds, but USDA seems reluctant to take anything other than pota toes held under its loan obliga tions. Apparently USDA does not plan to buy just to get pota toes off the market at least not unless the situation changes.- Thursday, March 21, 1946 HERALD AND NEWS THIRTEEN competitively under less favor able conditions to come. Consideration of the immedi ate importance of soil conserving crops highlights the fact that a tremendous shortage of clover and alfalfa seeds and other hay and pasture seeds will make the production of these crops reas onably profitable for a long period in areas favorable to this production. Production goals for Oregon call for a 1946 increase in wheat, seed grains, hay, pasture and hay seeds particularly alsike and alfalfa seeds. A reduction in poultry and turkey production is desired in order that feed can go to help balance available feed with dairy and beef live stock goals. A 16 per cent re duction in potatoes should be made to balance production with demand if support prices are likely to be exceeded by buying prices for another season. 68 Head Of Cattle Sold At Auction Sixty-eight head of cattle were sold for a total sum of $16,850, at the second annual Rogue River Valley Hereford Breeders' auction held last weekend in Medford.
