1 Wool Prices Expected To Decline Moderately By GAYLORD P. GODWIN WASHINGTON (UPII -The Ag-j ricullure Department said Monday world wool priccS arc expected tn decline moderately during the re- mamder of 1963 because of com' petition (rom manmade fibers. In a review of the wool situa tion, the department said that dur ing the early months of 19S3, world prices were the highest since late 19o7 and early 11)58 for the finer grades of wool, and the highest since early 1960 for the medium and coarser grades. De mand was stable for the lower- than-normal supplies, due to low er carryover stocks and smaller production. The department said consump lion can oe expected to remain steady through 1963.

Ph. 2-2581 all fibers is increasing, the agency said, but wool's share is decreas ing. The higher level of wool prices probably will result in a greater blending or substitution of man- made fibers. This, in turn, the de partment said, will cause a mod erate price decline during the rest of 1963. , Domcslic use of wool, cotton, and manmade fibers in 1962 total-! ed 38.4 pounds per capita. This was 8 per cent more than a year earlier. The per capita domestic use of all three fibers increased wool, 5 per cent: cotton, 4 perl cent; and manmade fibers, 16 per cent. Of the total per capita do mestic consumption, .wool account ed for 3.1 pounds, cotton 22.9 pounds, and manmade fibers 12.4 pounds. The Foreign Agricultural Serv ice (FAS I estimates world cattle numbers total a record 1.1 billion head, and hog numbers total record 496 million head. The cattle tdtal is 19 million head more than in 1962, up 169 million head from the 1951-55 av erage, and 99 million head above 1956-61).

PETKRSEN Scott and Zepha Warren, Algo. m Annus cattle Dresners, re ceived enviable recognition for iheir herd recently when the American Breeders Service select ed two of their yearling bulls for use in their artificial insemination service. The American Breeders Service select their bulls only from herds1 that have been keeping supervised iwnrds for several years. This provides complete information on the producing ability of the dam and the sire, of all calves Dorn in the herd. The bulls were selected alter thorough examination of the rec ords of manv herds in the United States. Tlie selection was based on the records the Warrens kept m connection with the Oregon Beet Improvement Association and tlic Performance Registry internation al, headquartered at Denver, Colo The Oregon program was devel oped and is conducted as a co operative activity between Oregon State Extension Service and beef cattle producers of the state. Scott Warren is vice president ana a director of the association. Under these programs the cat tie arc weighed and graded by the county agent, as weancrs and yearlings. Ray Petersen, local accnt. has worked with the War rens since they started official records in 1955. One of the bulls! sold. Algoma Bardoliermere 46, had a 205-day adjusted weaning weight of 615 lbs. and his yearling adjusted weight was 1095 lbs. The other bull, Algoma Bardolier mere 48, weighed 643 lbs. as a weancr and 1018 lbs. as a yearling Their bull calves have weighed as much as 664 lbs. at the 205-day weaning weight. Requirements for a weaner is 475 lbs. at 205 days without a nurse cow or creep feed and 875 lbs. for a yearling. It is1 estimated that only about 10 per cent of the beet cattle in the Unit ed States will make these weights. In addition to meeting very high standards of performance and con formation, the bulls were thor oughly examined by a veterinar ian from the Madison headquar ters for any disease or physical defects. Both bulls were sired by lllini Bardoliermere 5, purchased from the University of Illinois. The off spring from this bull have been rapid gaining cattle with very de sirable conformation. Ninety per cent of his calves have exceed ed the minimum requirements of the Beef Improvement Association. The Warren bulls were shipped to Madison, Wisconsin, national headquarters for the company, where they will be bred artificial ly to 600 cows each to get an actual progeny test on the bulls. Part of the terms of the sale provide for the Warrens to retain one-third ownership in these two bulls. This makes it possible to use semen from the bulls in their own herd. Also, through the trans. action, the Warrens acquired one- third interest in a bull, Ankonian F, A. 361. owned by the Amcri can Breeders Service and in use by them in their service. He is a son of Eilcenmere 1032, Interna- linnnl' rhnmninn in tfliO Thiu hull was proven a superior carcass II sire by the University of Connecti cut. He received a rating of plus 14 for rib eye and carcass value. Ankonian is kept in Madison, Wis., by the American Breeders and they ship semen all over the Unit ed States and a number of foreign countries.

At the Pendleton ofice of the grain inspection division the (train weighed and inspected dropped from 195.134 bushels in March to 125,400 bushels in April. The Merrill office had four track inspections and 11 track inspections in April. In March there were Ki track inspections and one truck inspection by that of-fice. Lubricants comprise slightly more than one per cent of the petroleum products consumed in the United States. By SCOTT LAMB With the defeat of. the national wheat referendum, speculation is running heavy on the possibility of no wheat program for 1964. Some Congressmen ' have stated they would not favor new legisla tion since wheat people had made their bed, so to speak. Such statements are probably lo be expected in the disappointment of advocates following the defeat However, practical politics creep into the picture in spite of the cla mor at the moment. Next year is a national election year. It is in conceivable that tlie administra tion would be willing to hit the campaign trail in November fol lowing a harvest price of II wheat and attempt to garner votes of the nation's two million wheat farmers. On the other side of the coin, a number of Congressmen have said they would push for n e w wneat legislation based on vol untary cutbacks tied to supports. There has even been some talk of reviving the direct payment schemes evolved by the Brannon, plan of a few years back. One editorial we've seen came up with a novel suggestion. Tlie gist of it was to tlie effect that we are always experimenting with new plans for controlling supply and demand, and suggested we experiment with free enterprise for a year to see what would hap pen. Such a suggestion would have been humorously ridiculous a few years ago, but now is being of fered in a serious vein. Contrari wise, a few years ago a plan to control supply and demand by gov ernment edict would have met with scorn. It shows how far we have moved toward socialistic thinking in a period of 20 years. Another amusing note. All sup ply control plans are predicated on the theory that they are tem porary and are only being used to return to supply and demand. Someday. Law Expires SALEM (UPD Oregon prob ably won't have any law against picketing of farms this summer. A 1961 law expires soon. The House Labor and Industries Com mittee Friday failed to get enough votes to send an extension of the law out of the committee for House action. ISSraVrK?
