Three Problems for Farmers
The article cites Chester H. Gray of the American Farm Bureau Federation outlining three key issues for farmers: cost of production, cooperative marketing plans, and agricultural representation in government. He argues farmers should set prices with evidence, pursue collective bargaining, and secure adequate agricultural advocacy to ensure fair profits. George A. Mansfield of Jackson County Farm Bureau illustrates collective bargaining by noting price differences when farmers coordinated, such as sulfur pricing in alfalfa and carlot buying.

Sulphur Boosts Alfalfa Yields in Oregon Trials
Oregon Agricultural College researchers report alfalfa fields in central and southern Oregon show high sulphur levels, with added sulphur doubling yields in some Goose Lake trials. Improvements observed in Crain Rainly, Wallowa, Umatilla, and Matheny valleys suggest benefits for corn, beans, and pest protection, though some sites show no gains.
