Mainly Due To Increase In Livestock
i1
A nine per cent rise in Klamath
Basin farm income during the
1962 growing season was reported
today largely based on a 19 per
cent income rise from livestock.
A report of the county aeri-
culture service released by Walt
Jendrzeiewski, county farm agent,
said that total farm income rose
to J38.392.103 during the growing
year, a rise from $35,288,865 In
1961.
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.
The report said there was a to
tal of 3:19.22.1 acres of crop land
in the Basin during 1962 and
10.195 of these were idle (or one
reason or another.
Irrigated pastures totaled 122,-

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.
County Agent
Plans Move
Tlie office of the county agri
culture extension service will be
moving the middle of this month
to new temporary quarters at
1949 Main Street, Klamath Falls.
The move is prompted by the
remodeling of the Post Office
Building, which now houses tne
service.
The Main Street building Is
county-owned and also contains
the public health service. The
agriculture service will be lo
cated on the second floor of that
building for a year and a half

Hay income remained about the

to $4,960,300.
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

Grain crop income rose near

acreage and price reductions, ac

Hotel. Tulelake, on Thursday,
Aug. 8 to receive testimony per
taining to the use of 2,4-D or
other injurious herbicides used
in the Tulelake area of Siskiyou
and Modoc counties. The hearing
will start at 9 a.m.
In June complaints were re
ceived by Modoc County Agricul
tural Commissioner Loring White
at Alturas, and the State De
partment of Agriculture in Sac
ramento that onion plantings in
the Tulelake area showed exten
sive injury from 2,4-D weed kil
ler. The weeicide was used on
grain crops and ditch banks.
The Department of Agriculture
The investigation is to determine
if injurious herbicides were used
in violation of law or regulations,
and to assist the Department of
Agriculture in determining wheth
er further restrictions should he
placed on the use of 2,4-D in
the Tulelake area.
The department officials point
ed out that while 2,4-D and sim
ilar hormone-type herbicides are
powerful weed killers and very
effective for control of broadlcaf
weeds, that some crops are par
ticularly sensitive to the mate
rials and can be injured by very
small amounts which may drift
to cultivated crops.
