Family labor made up about 70 percent of Oregon's total farm labor force last year and composed an even larger per centage of the farm labor force on a national basis. Farm labor along the Pacific coast was most in demand in September, due to the harvest of many California crops. Between 1945 and 1961, the number of farm workers drop ped one-third while farm pro duction increased one-third, ac cording to Mrs. Horrell. The number o f persons supplied with farm products by one farm worker nearly doubled during the same period as a result of increased mechanisation.

Oregon State Geologist Discovering Fascinating Facts in Wallowa Area An Oregon State university geologist is making the first detailed study of Oregon’s Wallowa Mountain! and his field work is producing some fascinating findings on rocks, miner als and mountain history. Dr. William H. Taubeneck started his study of the rugged northeastern Oregon mountains in 1956 He expects to spend at least five more summers ♦-------------------------------------- in the field work before he is been found in rock samples taken ready to write a final compre by Taubeneck, who spends his off hensive report on the Wal hours from teaching in the winter lowas which are a key area for studying the physical and chemi interpreting the continental evo lution of western North America. The Wallowa Mountains are vastly different than the Cas cades, Taubeneck points out. The Cascades are a volcanic range composed of rocks less than 60 million years in age, whereas the Wallowas are an uplifted block of the earth’s crust, composed most ly of granite and sedimentary rocks ranging in age between 100 and 240 million years. Since the Wallowas were “hoist ed up,” time and erosion have severely modified these moun tains, producing the sharp, rug ged features that now distinguish them, Taubeneck added. Some unique minerals have! cal properties of specimens gath ered during the summer months. Currently, Taubeneck is obtain, ing more precise information re garding these unique minerals in order to better interpret the earth processes involved in the forma tion of rocks such as those of the Wallowas. The Wallowa range covers ap proximately 700 square miles and its tallest peaks reach up nearly 10,000 feet. Although Taubeneck’s research program will provide de. tailed geological maps of the mountains, his studies are pri marily directed toward a more complete understanding of the evolution of western North Am erica.
