WASHINGTON tUPH - Agri
culture is a restless business, ac
cording to an Agriculture Depart
ment check on shifts in geograph
ic location of crop and livestock
production.
The changes indicate specia
zation in farming, whether it's
crops or livestock, the department
said.
Although the location of crops
generally changed more than live
stock, poultry production shifted
more than any other commodity
the department said. The rapid
expansion of broiler production in
the Southeast has given this area
a leading share of poultry pro
duction. Within the past 10 years,
the Southeast's contribution to the
total poultry output went from 5 to
13 per cent. The gain in the South-
cast was largely at the expense of
the Corn iBelt, whose share of the
total dropped nearly 6 per cent
from 1946-50 to 1956-60, when it
was 22.1 per cent of total poultry
production.
After poultry was subtracted the
balance of livestock production
pretty much stayed put. The Corn
Belt and the Northern Plains con
tinued to be the major regions for
feeding meat animals.
The picture was about the same
for dairy little change since
World War II. ,
Cotton and oil crops moved just
about as far as poultry. Cotton
headed west, mostly to the Pa
cific region which recorded a gain
of 6 per cent in its share of pro
duction over the decade. The cot
ton farms of California, Arizona,
and Texas have a definite advan
tage partly because of high yields.
Oil crops took even larger
strides than cotton. Soybeans, pea
nuts, and flaxseed are included in
this group, but soybeans led the
parade. While production of pea
nuts declined in the Southeast,
production of soybeans gained in
the Cotton Belt and the Delta
States.

Now that the winter season is
upon us, nere are some sugges
tions from the federal extension
foresters on colors for the fire
place:
Evergreen cones, small blocks
of wood or kindling, wood chips
and sawdust, or even one inch
diameter rolls of tightly wrapped
newspapers or magazines, tied at
both ends, soaked in chemi
cal solutions and dried, will give
off flames of various colors when
they are burned in the fireplace1
to add to Christmas cheer. The
following chemicals will produce
the colors indicated:
Copper sulfate, green; calcium
chloride, orange: copper chloride,
blue; lithium chloride, carmine;
potassium chloride, purple.
Do not use chlorates or nitrates,
lor potassium permanganate. Che
micals should be kept away from
children and pets. To avoid stor
age, obtain only sufficient amount
for treatment. This job should be
done out-of-doors.
"Rubber gloves should be worn
and care used not to spill the
chemicals or solutions. The chemi
cals should be dissolved in a
wooden pail or earthen crock,
since the chemicals will ultimate
ly destroy metal containers.
A discarded five-gallon paint
bucket serves admirably as a
treating vat, mixing in it no more
than a couple of gallons of solu
tion at a time.
No need to cleanse it thoroughly
for a change of chemicals. The
ratio is one pound of chemical
to one gallon of water, using one
chemical per batch.
"The materials to be treated
may be placed in a mesh or por
ous bag, and submerged in the
solution. A stone can weight the
material down in the solution
A day or so of soaking should be
adequate. Lift out and drain over
the container and spread the
treated materials out to dry. If
the materials are allowed to dry
on newspapers, the newspapers
themselves, when dry, may be
rolled and wrapped tightly to burn
in the fireplace.
"The burning of the treated ma
tcrials should be confined to a
well-ventilated fireplace.
"The treated cones and wood
en blocks make good novelty
Christmas gifts, and bags to con
tain them can be made out of
dyed mosquito netting."

Pesticide Caution Given
Buy your pesticides only in the
original containers and he sure
they have not been opened.
This is the warning sounded by
J. D. Patterson, chief chemist
nith the OrcRon Department of
griculture. who points out that
it is not only unlawful but dan-
Serous to sell broken packages of
pesticides.
The law has been in effect for
two years, but the department
still receives occasional reports of
sale of broken packages.
Lack of adequate labeling and
mistaken identity were two of
the dangers Patterson warned of
if pesticides are not in original
containers. He also noted that a
purchaser could not be sure of his
product if the container had been
opened.
Oregon farmers generally plan
little change in 1963 spring plant
ed crops from last year, accord
ing to the March planting inten
tions report issued by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.
Total acreage planned for spring
planted crops in Oregon shows
one per cent decrease from 1962,
notes Mrs. Elvera Horrell, Ore
gon State University extension
agricultural economist.
Nationally, farmers have indi
cated a two per cent acreage in
crease. If farmers stick with
their reported plans, the total
acreage of all crops this year
would be the second smallest on
record, she said.
Oregon growers report they
plan fewer acres of spring wheat,
corn, oats, sugar beets, dry peas
and potatoes. These cuts slightly
more than offset increases planned
tor barley and land for hay
production.
Oregon gorwers expect to seed
14 per cent fewer acres to spring
wheat than in 1962. However, Mrs.
Horrell points out that increased
plantings of winter wheat means
that the state could still have nine
per cent more wheat acreage this
year than in 1962.
Growers expect to plant 19 per
cent fewer acres of dry peas, 14
per cent less oats, 10 per cent
less corn and two per cent fewer
sugar beets. They plan to in
crease their barley acreage by
four per cent and to have two per
cent more hay land.
Oregon farmers who plant
spuds for late summer and fall
harvest are planning 35,500 acres
this year, a five per cent de
crease, according to Stephen C.
ROARING TIME
THOUSAND. OAKS. Calif. (UPl
Guests had a roaring time over
the weekend at the wedding ot
Eugene Giles and Alma Goebcl
Holf.
,ti Hnff is the daughter ol
Louis Goebel, owner of the Jun-
gleland Private Zoo. The wedding
took place in a lion arena sur-
ounded by cages witn roaring
ions, tigers and other wild ani
mals.
Marks, OSU extension agricultur
al economist. Nationally, a one
per cent reduction is seen. Idaho
and Montana are the only west
ern regional stales planning an
increase.
Onion growers plan to have 5,000
acres for late summer harvest
this year, 200 acres less than 1962,
he adds. Eastern Oregon looks for
2.900 acres with 2,100 acres in
Western Oregon. Nationally, late
summer planting intentions show
a five per cent increase over
1962, with California planning the
biggest jump.
Oregon can expect 67.000 acres
of green peas for processing this
year, slightly less than 1962, but
still more than usual, Marks said.
Idaho and California plan reduc
tions, but Washington acreage will
increase slightly.
Nationally, pea growers plan a
three per cent increase in acres
for processing. The intentions re
port shows acreage for freezing
about the same as last year, but
about five per cent more for can
ning.
Although total acreage of some
crops may be less this year, total
production could hold up, Mrs.
Horrell reminded. Last year.
American farmers combined gen
eral "know how" and mechaniza
tion to hit record yields on many
crops and to lift total production
to record levels despite the small
est acreage of modern times.
The planting intentions report is
not a forecast, but only a way
the agricultural industry may see
the whole picture, the economist
point out. Many things, such as
weather, disease, price, labor sup
ply and government programs
could change the picture,
they stress.
;he state remained in 21st plate
nationally. The Oregon total at
he beginning of 1963 was 1,170..

W.OIIO. January 1, 1962. 1,137,
100 beef cattle were listed (nr

Figures fur milk cows two years

CliO to 162.000 from January 1,
una to January I. 1963. How-
cer. the state remained in 32nd
place nationally. lotal ligures

2.426.000 head.
Oreson moved into the 13th spot
nationally from 14th place in
the number of sheep reported,
but the total number of sheep
and lambs in the stale showed
a decline. The January I, 1961,
figure was 777.000 compared with
851.000 the previous year. Nation
ally, too, the number was down.
The first of this year 30,170.000
were recorded. A year ago it was
31.446.000. Texas also led the na
tion in sheep numbers in 1962.
Their figure was 5.651.000.
Nationally hog numbers in
creased during 1962, but Oregon
showed a drop. However, it was
in 29th place nationally both
years. At the end of 1962, Oregon
had 267,000 of the 94,244,000 hogs
recorded for the nation. The
slate had 271,000 on January 1,
1962, and the nation 93,173,000.
Icwa continued to lead the nation
in hog production, but. while
the nation showed an increase
in numbers, Iowa had a decrease.
Its January I, 1963, figure was
