(To The Editor) What a pity, that a community does not have enough concern for its own wel fare la maintain adequate fire fighting equipment that could prevent such unnecessary losses aa wu experienced Sunday, when our hatchery burned. Also wu think it criminal thut the ctiy chemical truck would not respond to the call to an Indus trial fire, especially when many witnesses Informed us that the blaze could have been extin guished with such equipment. The city fire department was culled when the bluze first start ed. They were not concerned or perhups did not care to break up a pinochle game. The county fire truck was then called, bit since the driver of the truck was oboul three miles from his truck (so we were Informed) It was thirty minutes later that this feeble equipment arrived. They did all they could, for which we are grateful, but after all they could not work miracles with such inadequate equipment. If, aa we are Informed, the city fire department ll supposed to answer calls for industrial fires, why did they not do so? Our hatchery was only a small part of a billion-dollar Industry, but a very Important part to us. If they are not permitted to an swer such calls we would like to know why, and are going to make it our business to find out. Does not the city of Klamath Fails realize were it not for its suburbs and surrounding trading urea, the city would not amount to enough to hardly be worth mentioning. We have been in formed that the city department have answered calls to Keno and Pelican City to help save the lumbermen's property and we think that if they could do that they could also answer a call to save a business that was also an asset to the city. We would gladly have paid hand somely and then would have been money ahead; to say noth ing of the human angle of it. Had the fire occurred a few hours later probably human life would have been lost, as the writer slept in the hatchery. Probably that would have made no difference, since we can see nothing human about the action In this case. We hope that we will be called on some time for a donation to the Firemen's Ball or some such city affair, so that we may have the pleasure of refusing. In our mind, something should be done at once to insure adequate fire fighting equipment for these suburbs. If not, it is only a matter of time until there will be a terrible fire catas trophe and loss of life. We doubt if the city is going to force the suburbs to vote them selves into the city by allowing these outside fires to burn homes and businesses. It would be well If the city SALEM, May IS (P) Plans for statewide toll conservation program, In which Oregon will become a national guinea pig, have been drafted by the state production and marketing ad ministration committee, and is acheduled to go Into effect next year, Tha program, after approval by the federal government, will be offered to farmers through county agricultural conservation associations, with the cost to be paid by the farmer and the gov ernment. The program for western Ore- ?on will stress drainage, pasture mprovement, and correction of soli dellflencles. The eastern Ore gon program emphasizes erosion control, water conservation and range improvement. The program was developed after a statewide farm survey by farmer members of the PMA committee. Hay producers who plan to bale their 1948 crop must start immediately to try to obtain bale ties, of which there la a critical shortage, the federal production and marketing administration warns. The federal government has been asked to send ties here from areas with later haying of Klamath Falls would take a few pointers from the very effi cient Corvallis fire department which naa to our knowledge have had human safety In mind enough to answer calls for even inconsequential grass fires out side of the city limits which might endanger human lives.

Seasonal farm labor still la the farmer's biggest headache, al though the year-round labor pic ture is improving rapidly. After June 20 prisoners of war will no longer be available for sea sonal crops. Combined stocks of wheat and feed grains In the northwest are only about half of what they were a year ago, Indicating a much more serious situation than for the country as a whole, the Oregon Stat college extension service said. State Agriculture Director E. L. Peterson has gone to Wash ington to see what he can do about getting poultry feed. The extension service said the feed supply situation in Oregon is even -worse than in the drought years of 1934 and 1938. Egg production has passed the peak, so eggs will go up two cents a dozen In two weeks. There ar plenty of eggs now, but a sharp decline is expected soon becauaa of the critical feed situation, the extension service predicts.

Perfectly balanced volatility also means instant starting on the cold mornings that prevail, even in midsummer, in the high mountain areas.
