VOLUME X XX XIV NO. 26 Potato Packers Plan To Start Work Next Week F i r m s Installing New Equipment; Picking Rates Set V ery modern potato sorting equipment has been installed by the Eastern Oregon Produce com p any and the Hartley Poduce comp any in preparation for the open ing of the potato harvest. Both firms have installed the same equipment, made by the Paramount Manufacturing comp any o f California. Th e equipment will handle a car of potatoes in 40 minutes, as compared to an ap proximate one hour and 15 minutes with the older type equipment By eliminating the washer, the operators can handle onions on the grader. So far as is possible, the potatoes will be handled automat ically. The 2’s culls and B's will come o ff the grader at different places, according to Sam Hartley of the H artley Produce company and Tom Burningham of the East ern Oregon Produce. T h e new equipment in the East ern Oregon Produce company plant will be housed in an entirely new building, which replaced the struct ure destroyed by fire last Sep tember. Six other packing sheds are also expected to handle potatoes this year, making the total one more than was opeated last year. The other firms are Sim plot’s W est ern Produce, J. C. Watson comp any, L. J. Josephson and Son, Lutz Produce company, Rex D. Mathews and Bybee Produce comp any. The only car o f potatoes loaded this week was reported to have been packed by Josephson and Son at Payette. All packing sheds are expected to be in operation next week Farmers are reported to be receiving $1.50 net, which is con sidered a good price. A wage scale set-up to standard ize the potato-picking rates in this area was adopted in Ontario last Thursday. A group o f potato grow ers, processors and picker-contract ors met with directors of the M al heur County Potato and Onion Oroa-.i'S association to simplify th# scale. The new scale, says Klass Ten- sen, president of the association, calls for a rate o f 10 cents per 100 pound sack for potatoes yield ing over 200 sacks per acre and 12 cents for yields under 200. This differs from last year’s rate system, which had a number o f different picking rates depending on yield. As a result, pickers boosted the price to top levels in many cases where they should have been lower. "W e feel that the two-rate system will standardize the picking price at a price which will be fair to both the pickers and farmers,” Ten sen said. The group also recommended that pickers be paid on a "weigh-out” basis with a five percent deduction for sacks and dirt and that field loading be set a t 3 cents per sack ________ THE NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, NYSSA, OREGON, THURSDAY, JU LY 7, 1949 EMIL JOHN BURNED WHEN FLAMES TAKE HOUSE ON OWYHEE Emil John, who was seriously burned when the house on his farm located on the Owyhee river was destroyed by fire last Thursday night, has been moved from the Nyssa Nursing home to the Holy Rosary hospital in Ontario. Awakened by the fire after it had gained considerable headway, the rather elderly man was un able to give a detailed description j f the situation. Apparently the stove that caused the blaze was 'ocated near the door and Mr. John was sleeping at the far side A the room. W hen he awoke, he ipparently wrapped a mattress around his legs and the lower part >f his body and plunged through the flames. O nly his back and arms were burned. Without clothing, John was found wandering about the embers >f his home by Houston Dunaway, who was reported to have been the last man to quit fishing that day at the Owyhee dam. Two States To Erect Bridges An Associated Press story issued from Salem this week relative to the bridges over the Snake river in the lower Snake river valley indicated that a widening or re placement project is in prospect for the Nyssa and Ontario bridges. The Oregon state highway de partment reached an agreement with Idaho Tuesday for construct ion of new bridges a t Weiser and Payette. In the meantime, the load limit on the two bridges was reported to have been raised from six to 10 tons as a temporary measure to relieve farm ing and packing shed interests. Aside from federal aid money to be used on the bridges, the costs will be divided equally between the two states. State Highway Engineer R. H. Baldock said the condition o f the bridges at Weiser and Payette is much more serious than the con dition of the Ontario and Nyssa bridges. DEPOSITS OF BANK SHOWING DECREASE Concern Builds Queen Selection Coal Conveyor Postponed Until The Amalgamated Sugar comp Sunday At 7:30 any has started construction of a system uf conveyors, hoppers and elevators for transferring coai from railroad cars and coal silo directly to bunkers above the fur naces in the Nyssa plant. The new equipment, width will handle 50 tons o f coal an hour, will replace a steam shovel with clam shell buckets in handling coal direct from the railroad cars to the bunkers. The shovel will still be used, however, in trans- fering coal from storage piles to the new conveyor system. Coal arriveing by railroad train will be dumped into hoppers be tween the railroad rails from bot tom-dump cars and travel on a conveyor belt through a concrete tunnel fo r a distance of 260 feet and will then be lifted to the bunk ers to be located in an enclosure on top of the boiler house. The concrete tunnel will be six feet wide and six feet, 10 inches high. The elevator house above the furn aces will be constructed of steel and concrete. Burnall Brown, factory superin tendent, who is in charge o f the construction, said the project will require another 60 days for com pletion. Regular sugar company employes are doing the work. Crops Field Day Set For July 14 A crops field day program will be held at the Malheur branch experiment station Thursday, Juiy 14, beginning at 1:30 p. m. Dr. D. Hill, head o f the farm crops department at Oregon State college, and Neal Hoffman, station superintendent, will discuss the nature o f some o f the work con ducted r t the station. T o be reviewed will be irrigation studies, pasture trials, creeping al falfa pasture plots, sugar beet and field corn fertilizer plots, barley and oat nurseries, com varietal trials, alfalfa variety yield trials, alfalfa-grass mixtures and fruit and berry varietal tests. Numerous weed control experi ments that are toeing conducted co operatively with the station by George Bain, assistant county agent, will toe shown. O f interest to grain growers, will be field plantings promising new varieties of oats and barley, which will probably be released for com mercial production within the next year or two. In answer to the June 30 call of the comptroller of the currency, the Nyssa branch o f the First National bank o f Portland reports deposits o f $2,901,031.52 and loans of $2,007,195.07, according to the local manager, G.
