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.

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.

New Potato Crop Estimate
Shows Increase In Acreage
A new potato crop estimate
from BAE covers only early
spring areas, but indicates on in
crease of 3300 acres over plant
ing Intentions reported earlier.
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

Many express the belief that
markets have advanced too fast
and stayed up too long to match
up with probable over-all sup

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

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

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.-

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.
