In a letter received here this week, reports It has been notified by the Office of Price Stabilization that OI'H celling prices will be main tained on white potatoes which will reflect 100 per cent parity to growers. At p r e e n t the regulation establishes celling prices only through the month of June. Ceil ings for later months will be added by amendments. According to the letter received here, several members of the White Potato Industry's advisory committee expressed tho doubt the present celling would permit grow ers to average parity because of normal seasonal fluctuations n potato prices. OPS, however, explained that parity Is actually being reflected to the growers. Finneil Notes Certification Eligibilities The purpose of seed certification I In Oregon Is to maintain and make 'available high grade seeds, ex plains H. D. Finneil, Oregon's I Certification Specialist who says ithat only superior varieties are i eligible for certification. Eligible varieties may have been in use many years, or they may ' be new varieties produced recently I by plant breeding. But whether a variety la new or old It may be lost unless It Is very carefully handled through growing, harvest ing, cleaning, and marketing. The rules of certification are set up to make sure seed Is properly grown and handled. Seed 1 not certified until the tag Is Healed on the container. Finneil says varietal purity Is the most Important point. Certified need must be true to variety. It must also have high germination and be quite free of weeds and diseases. Weeds and diseases are often spread In low grade trashy seed. Using certified seed Is a good way to prevent the spread of weeds and seed carrir! diseases. Certllicatlon in Oregon Is con ducted under Oregon law by Ore lon State Coll' ge. The Agricultural Extension Service directs and carries on the inspection work. The county extension awnts are the certllicatlon authorities In their respective counties. Standards for all crop certified are on file In the county exten sion office. Finneil concludes. All applications for certification should be filed In the ccunly extension office. San Calhoun 'a MIRRORS far any rnnm in thn amnt .131 s.
