Potato Growers Invited To Corvallis Field Day Potato seed growers, seed State college campus. The group dealers, and all interested parties will leave the campus at 9 o'clock of Klamath county are invited for the test plot which is located to attend the potato test plot on the Children s Farm Home field day to be held in Corvallis, three miles north of Corvallis on tne AiDany-torvaius niKii Wednesday, June 12, reports C, A. Henderson, county agricul tural agent. AH new growers who are planning on making ap plication for certification of potatoes this year would find it very worthwhile to attend this field day and acquaint them selves with the various potato diseases which are of major im portance and must be rogued from certified fields. County Agent Henderson is asking that those attending as semble between 8:30 and 9 a. m. way. Transportation facilities will be available for those want ing a ride. The test plot has been planted in two-plant units of 200-tuber samples from fields entered for foundation and certified seed potatoes in Oregon in 1945. The test block covers approximately 7 acres and represents 2A0 lota of 9 varieties from 14 Oregon counties and also includes two lots from Canada. Dr. J. A.

Advice Given On Freezers Buying a freezing cabinet for the farm requires the consider ation of efficiency in freezing and preserving food and econo my of operation, was the opinion of Lucy Case, extension nutri tionist of Oregon State college, expressed last week at a demon stration on preparing foods for the locker given at the Winema hotel. Prompt repair service is one of the first considerations of a buyer. If repairs are not made quickly, the frozen contents will spoil. Purchasers are more sure of service from well-etablished companies who will offer serv ices after 90-day guarantees have expired. An efficient cabinet will hold a temperature of zero degrees Fahrenheit, according to re search conducted by the OSC ex periment station, Miss Case pointed out. Any insulating material, re gardless of its resistance to water, must be completely sealed on the outside wall of the cabi net to prevent penetration of water vapor. Unless the insula tion is kept free of moisture con densing, it is likely to become a solid mass of ice which will de stroy the insulating qualities, Miss Case adds. Door Seal Advocated Doors with a wide gasket, a double seal with sponge rubber or other suitable gaskets, will prevent ice from forming around the door. A thermometer that is visible from the outside is useful to indicate the tempera ture inside the cabinet. The best freezing cabinets pro vide space for circulation of air between food packages and floor, walls and ceiling. The freezing plate is located where it can keep the outer walls cold. A cool, clean, well-ventilated place for the air compressor will keep the operating cost down. A damp location causes many cabinets to sweat and rust, the lids or doors to stick and the refrigeration plates or coils to frost up rapidly. Miss Case reported that the OSC experiment station is work ing on plans for a homemade freezing cabinet. Fruit Express Buys New Cars Pacific Fruit Express company. jointly owned by Southern Pa cific and union facuic rauroaas. today announced the placing of orders for 2000 new lightweight refrigerator cars embodying rad ical improvements in design and construction. Deliveries are scheduled to start the first quar ter of 1947. This large purchase of ultra modern equipment, recently au thorized by Southern Pacific and Union Pacific for PFE's 1946 improvement program, will give the company a total of more than 38,000 cars. Its fleet, larg est of its kind in the world, car ries the great bulk of western perishable crops to distant mar kets. To be constructed of lighter, stronger metals, the new cars wil weigh about 4000 pounds less than conventional refriger ator cars and will incorporate numerous structural changes de veloped from Pacific Fruit Ex press company s extensive ex periments in laboratory and shop, and from suggestions by the trade. Every effort was made in designing these cars, it was stated, to anticipate possible fu ture refrigerator car require ments in the event experiments now being conducted result in radical changes in preparing per ishable freight for market. Insulation Improved Better insulation and easier riding qualities are outstanding features of the improved de signs, thoroughly tested under actual operating conditions in four experimental cars, PFE said. The principal innovations in fittings and appliances in elude new-type convertible bulk heads, improved fans for cir culating air inside the car, air ducts in car walls, herringbone floor racks, one-piece hatch closures, wrought steel wheels Railroad Strikers Face Question vitamin '""' ",.'Xl v - 1'"" '"' '" 7 m j H.

Thickness of insulating ma terials, it was explained, has been increased and encased be tween sheets of a special product which seals out water vapor and reflects radiant heat. The im proved convertible bulkheads, which form the ice bunkers in each end of the car. may be folded back to give maximum space for loads that move under top and body icing. The fans are located under the floor racks, adjacent to the bulkheads, and operate by fric tion from the tread of the mov ing car wheel. They can be op erated by electric motor for pre cooling. Perfected by PFE, the air ducts are an entirely new feature of refrigerator cars. They were devised to promote the circulation of air around solid loads. In announcing these specifi cations for the new cars, Pacific Fruit Express said the. improve ments would be built into its present cars as they go to the shops for reconditioning.

Grain Policy Told Farmers Government grain policy hits been announced for tho your ahead to remove unwrliiinty concerning Ki'iiin ceiling price between now ami June 30, 11147, encourage movement of grain and bring proper balance live stock numbers and gruiu sup plies available for feed. The grain policy recognizes the need for continued shipment of large ciuuntitu's of grain abroad to prevent mass starva tion. 11 makes a decision in fa vor of feeding more people and less livestock. In announcing the grain policy, it was stated: ' Necessity for using more grain for direct consumption and loss for livestock feeding menus that next year there will be less pork, smaller production of poultry and eggs, and less top grade beef. The total supply of these foods, however, is expected to be above pre-war levels." Under tho new price policy, celling prices are 25 cents per hushcl higher on corn, 15 cents higher on wheut, S cents higher on oats, 0 cents higher on bur ley, 10 cents higher on rye, and 18 cents per hundredweight higher on grain sorghums. Increases In protein meul ceil tugs also luivo been mmle. This ilinin ceiling schedule, thuUSDA says, provides an ample allow ance to reflect increases In pur ity for a year ahead, so the an nounced price schedule cun lie expected to continue without change until at leiist through June 30, 1D47.
