Farm Problems A number of so-called farm leaders are making some pretty ridiculous farm speeches these days. A simple knowledge of the facts would pretty well dispell any fears of doom resulting from the present farm programs. First of all, there is the corn program. Last spring dire predictions that the corn quotas were too low, that there would be no corn because of the poor spring weather were heard. Then a nearly perfect summer swelled the corn yield predictions, and the per-acre figures made some people think that the corn program would be a failure. Latest predictions are that the corn surplus will be cut some 20% from last year’s record. This is a real beginning. ” It was made clear from the start that those who cooperated with the corn program would get the benefits. And that’s what’s going to happen. The per-bushel price for cooperators will be from 20-30 cents higher than open market. ' . x The purpose of the corn program was two-fold. It was to cut the surplus of corn, and at the same time maintain a fair price to the farmer. If the government ever did what some people suggest, “get out of farming”, corn would be used as fuel, just as it was during the 1930’5, when we had an open market for awhile. And what would the economy of Decatur be, without its fine farm people from neighboring areas trading here? Undoubtedly a few people saw Tuesday morning’s Wall Street Journal. This very fine conservative newspaper explained in plain terms the turkey program, one of 40-odd individual programs for commodities. Turkey farmers need help. Competition has driven the price to almost nothing. The law allows the farmers to get together and help themselves, if they just will.: Citrus fruit growers, walnut growers, hundreds of other item growers, have done just this. More important, you will notice that this program is just exactly what private business has done — gotten bigger to control production and marketing. With one statement we would disagree — the article states that higher farm prices mean higher food prices. We have noticed that food prices seem to stay high regardless of market prices, and go higher because of middle-man increases, rather than basic farm increases. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Answers Petition On Raising Game

Answers were received today from Gov. Matthew E. Welsh to the petition of 81 persons Interested in the raising of game birds at the Wells county game farm. Gov. Welsh, In his letter, explained that the conservation department, after years of study, felt that the money spent on improving hunting and fishing could be better spent, with more results to the hunter and fisherman, by improving habitat and availability. Oubashe State Park The petition resulted from recent changes made by the department of conservation. The Wells county game preserve is being converted to Oubashe (Wabash) state park. The JasperPulaski game preserve will raise all quail and pheasant for the state. Local conservationists felt that the end of game-bird breeding in Wells county, which ended officially yesterday, would decrease the number of birds available locally. Petition Their petition, from the Monroe rifle and pistol conservation club, dated October 24, read: “We, as Tegal voters of Adams county, Indiana, protest the changing of the Wells county game farm operation. We believe the raising of game birds is a necessary function of the Indiana state conservation.” The governor’s letter read as follows: Governor’s Answer “Thank you for your letter concerning the change of emphasis in the fish and game propagation program. "Game managers have known for many years that artificial propagation of game birds and hatchery fish was useful only in stocking new areas. Actually, so few hatchery animals or fish ever reach the hunter’s bag or the fisherman’s stringer, that they represent an investment many times the cost of a. hunting and fishing license. "For example, studies conducted by the federal and state officials in the area of game management showed that each male pheasant bagged cost around S2O, and each pen-reared bobwhite quail bagged cost in excess of sl2. “Therefore, we are changing our hatchery program so that money will not be wasted on unsound and expensive practices but instead will be available to acquire more land for permanent use of the hunter and fisherman to improve the natural habitat for wildlife. Just Won’t Thrive “Research has proved that if native birds and fish are present, they will produce a population in accordance with food and cover available. Conversely, if wild birds and fish are scarce, it is not reasonable to expect game farm birds and hatchery fish to thrive where native or wild species are unable to do so. The emphasis on preparing natural habitat for these animals so that they can propagate has been shown to be a more beneficial program. "I hope this information will be helpful to you in better understanding the problem and the widely accepted policy we have adopted. Sincerely, Matthew E. Welsh." Petitioners Named Signers of the petition were: Larry Lautzenheiser. Kay A. Ratctrff. Gary Simons, Donald Aurand, Ralph Ulman, John Kintz, J. M.
