More than $2 million of this in crease was attributed to gains in livestock sales, which totaled 14,077.000 during 1962. This was up from $11,802,500 in 1961. The report explains me in crease in this way: Prices of beef cattle and calves averaged higher in 1962. lso, an attempt was made this year to obtain a better record ot gains made on itinerant cattle which come into the area lor sum mer grazing. "Income from sheep was up from 1961 also, because of better lamb prices. Income from hogs increased slightly also." Cains in these livestock areas were offset somewhat by de creases in income from poultry and dairy products. In the farm crops, income rose most farmers to abandon this million dollars of the increased value of the field crops," It was reported.

FORT ROCK Improvement of facilities at Fort Rock State Park is the goal of a new out door recreation committee of Fort Rock Grange. R. A. Long, Mrs. Maurice Ward and Merritt (Bud) Parks were named on this com mittee. A early as 19.i!) the grange sought to have the huge landmark made a part of the system. This was achieved in 19fi2. Attractive road signs at the Fort Rock junc tion and other key guideposts were installed this summer. Improvements at tlie park site, at the extreme eastern tip of the large amphitheater rising up from the desert floor, include two pic nic tables, and outdoor camp stove and toilet facilities. The grange committee will seek to have further improvements in the form of drinking water and some type of shelter from the sun. Many visitors drive In to see the rock, some with camp trail ers. Often Scout troups or other groups have a campout at the rock. The site has been kept free of trash by visitors. iPaving of the road from the Fort Rock junction to the village of Fort Rock was done in 1958 That same year Lake County, with Floyd Branch doing the work. graded a road inside the amphi theater to give a better look at the towering walls. Until a few years ago tlie rock was under federal ownership. Working with the Lake County Court, the Fort Rock Grange urged its transfer first to Lake County, then to the state park system. Nearby is the Fort Rock Cave recently set aside as a national historical landmark. Plans are under way to replace the bronze marker which disappeared within a month after tlie ceremony set ting it aside, according to R.A. Long.

This level in hay income was maintained despite decreased acreages in the Basin, the report explains, because of higher hay prices. Also, rain damage to hay stored in the open reduced income. "A cold, backward spring and slow grass growth caused many meadows to be used for pasture and reduced production of mea dow hay," the report slates. Grain crop income rose near ly a half-million dollars despite acreage and price reductions, ac cording to the report; due to "ex cellent yields and excellent qual' ity." A reduction of nearly 50 per cent in seed crop income was ex plained as "principally because low prices for alsike have caused Scheduled For Tulelake TULELAKE Tlie California hearing is for the purpose of ob- Department of Agriculture hasjtajning testimony with regyd to l V.j u c . . the W'y crops that occurred.
