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. Total use of

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).

Ily RAY C. 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.

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.

CYTROL9 Amitrole-T, the new liquid formulation
based on Amino Triazole, does an outstanding
control job on these three weed pests
and other weeds and grasses
Quack grass is the Number 1 weed pest in the Klamath Basin.
And -CYTROL Amitrole-T Is the Number 1 quack grass killer
recommended by authorities.
It has consistently given effective control where other materials
have failed.
CYTROL sprayed on the foliage gets into quack grass and other
tough perennials through the leaves and moves throughout the entire
plant, down to the deepest roots. That's why it kills leaves, stems,
roots and all.
It licks the toughest weed problems because it produces thoroughly
dead weeds-does not merely suppress-and thus prevents re-growth,
