March . 1941 THE NEWS AND THE HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS. ORE. PAGE NINETEEN lit! Ill VARIABLE FDR FARM OUTPU T Variable market prrapecta are Indicated for Oregon 'leld crops and vegetables, according to the annual review of the outlook for tlirM commodities Juit re leased by the agricultural exten sion service at OHC. The wheat aupply situation la particularly out of balance with prospective domestic and foreign require ment, but strong consumer pur chasing power owing to heavy war and defense spending has materially strengthened the mar ket for truck crops. In regard to forage crop and cover crop seeds, the report In dicates a rather abundant sup , ply except In respect to a few of the smaller Items. This Is despite reduced Imports and In creased domestic use of such seeds for soil Improvement and other purposes. The price out look for hairy vetch and Aus trian winter field pea seed Is associated directly with the gov ernment grant of aid program to assist southern furmers to In crease the uso of winter cover crops. Although the prospective de mand for such Items as canned beans, peas and tomutoes Is high ly favorable, growers are cau tioned In the report against planting beyond an assured mar ketable quantity. The cost of producing such products will likely be higher than last year owing to higher wage rates and r some other items. More care than usual as to seed quality Is In order, owing to Interference with normal seed Importations from Europe. Data contained In the outlook report show an Increase In farm wage rates of 4 per cent com pared with a year ago, and a moderate trend toward an ad vance in other farm costs during the past few months. Thus far the advance In the general level of prices received by farmers has been greater than the In crease In costs, but a heavy ratio of disparity still exists and prob ably will continue. Purchasing power for farm products la now approximately four-fifths that of the 1910-1914 period. Compared with a year ago, the general level of farm prices In Oregon Is approximately 7 per cent higher, which Is close to th general average for the United States. In the country as a whole the Index of farm prices for grains at 84 was down 6 points at mid-January com pared with a year previous, while the meat animal index at 128 had advanced 2 points, dairy products at 121 was up 2 points, chickens and eggs at 100 up B points, and fruit crops at 78 up 12 points. The truck crop Index stood at 117, down 4 point. Suner Declares Spain in Axis MADRID, March 13 W For elgn Minister Ramon Serrano Suner said today no one should doubt "the unshokeable firm nets" of Spain's "friendship with Germany." The two countries, i ha declared, are struKEling for a single cause a new Europe. Serrano Suner spoke at the opening of a German press ex position. The strugitlo of Germany and Spain Is for a common goal of a , "more Just Europe," he said, one which would achieve "a geo graphical and moral fullness." Tha countries of Europe, he continued, "closed ranks of friendship and hostility" when the Spanish civil war was fought. Since then, he said, there has been no doubt where Spain stands and no doubt which countries ara her friends.
