For Farmers Net income for farmers is up this year an estimated 9%, and this is partly due to the feed grain program. There were several purposes to the feed grain program. One was to raise the farmer’s income. Another was to cut the surplus. In Indiana, not much com has been soldto pay for the program, because the price wouldn’t hold up if com were dumped on the market in large quantities here. Some was sold In the south part of the state, however, and in other more or less isolated cases. Large quantities of surplus com were sold in the western states, however. Here in Adams county the "old corn”, the 83,000 bushels stored from the 1954-59 period, was not sold. Last year at this time, however, there were 20,000 bushels of new corn on hand for loans; This year there is almost none, and only a couple of applications. This is true for several reasons: first of all, moisture content. Second, less com was actually planted and harvested in the county, considerably less, because of the acreage retired from com production. With the tremendous bumper crop that farmers around here had, if the "normal” amount had been planted, say the same amount as last year, the price would have fallen, and the loans would be up. In fact, half a billion dollars will be saved in storage costs because of the sale of surplus corn, the reduced storage, handling and transportation fees. For the first time since 1952, there has been a reduction of feed grain stocks. The total feed grain stocks will be reduced by some 200 million bushels. There will be a similar program in 1962. Farmers who are sincerely interested in ending the surplus problem, and getting back to a free market, without being starved to death in the process, should give the new 1962 program serious consideration., It will only help those who take part. As always, some of the best farmeri were personally hurt more by the program than helped," because they already had a good rotation system set up. A special tribute is due to them, for they are helping to end ■ the surplus problem despite the need for personal sacrifice, and are really “carrying” their fellow farmers, who will be helped some even if they are not in the program.

Winter Season To Officially Arrive Today By United Free* Internationa! Light snow, cold and floods heralded the arrival of winter today th the east third of the nation but .the new season was an improvement over outgoing autumn in much of the west. The U.S. Weather Bureau said winter would start officially at 0:20 p.m. EST. Some 2,000 persons faced a homeless Christmas due to record Mississippi floodwaters. Light snow fell from lowa to New England. The temperature dropped below freezing as far south as Georgia and Alabama. Central Florida had 40 degree readings early today. More than 1,000 men joined today in the battle to keep the flooding Pearl River out of the Flowood industrial area near Jackson, Miss. The Pearl was expected to reach a 37.5 toot flood crest later today, highest in history. More than 2,000 persons were already homeless and should the levee collapse at Flowood another 800 may have to evacuate. Another 500 persons were evacuated Wednesday. The cold which sent temperatures below zero all week in the Great Plains gave way to mild Pacific air today. The mercury climbed 47 degrees in 24 hours at Great Falls, Mont., early today. In Arizona, air force planes continued food drops to the snowbound Navajo Indian reservation but authorities said the emergency appeared over. However, unseasonal rain atop packed snow on highways in western Montana created a new traffic hazard. And widespread rain along the Pacific coast dropped an inch of precipitation in six hours at Astoria, Ore. Fog closed Los Angeles’ International Airport to inbound flights. It was also blamed for 20 traffic accidents in the Santa Ana, Calif., area. Low clouds and fog cut visibility to an eighth of a mile from Point Arguello, Calif., to San Diego. , At Hazelwood, Mo., near St Louis, a sharp increase in flulike illness brought Christmas vacation two days early for school k Children. More than a third or toe . school district’s 8,000 students were absent Wednesday. I If you have something to sell I or trade — use Democrat wan! ads — they get BIG results.
