Another Farm Thought The farmer produces more and more—yet earns less and less through a “free” market, which is geared to under-production, not over-production. If he were not protected, prices for his farm goods would fall to nothing. Many farmers do not realize this. They have swallowed, hook, line and sinker, the story of the big corporations — that “the Federal government should get out of farming.” Os course businesses would profit greatly from this — they would pay much lower prices for grain for several years. And then would come the pinch. When farm buying power goes down, the country moves into a deep, deep depression, one which only the tremendous deficit spending of World War II moved us from in the 1940’5. Farmers, and friends of farmers — think twice about the upcoming wheat referendum. If it is voted down, get ready for a recession. If the “government gets out of agriculture,” get ready for the greatest depression the world has ever known. The U.S. government gave or sold every piece of farmland in this county, for practically nothing, to its original owner —it forced public education on an illiterate people who hardly wanted it — it provided great land grant colleges for educating farmers to produce more and better crops. It made the original grants for roads, and surveyed the land- It still makes payments that makes possible the improvement of rural roads, and the great Federal road system in this state and county. A few controls on production, with a guaranteed minimum price, are far better than no controls, no prices, no jobs, and no country.

ASCS Farm Notes
1963 AGRICULTURAL CONSERVATION PROGRAM! CORRECTION: last week’s column: The sentence “Since available funds are adequate to approve all requests’’ — should have been — “Since available funds are INADEQUATE to approve all requests, screenings as to need and practicability, the amount received in previous years, must be considered before the request is approved. Farmers, who have not received cost-share assistance for carrying out approved practices, and have conservation problems, are urged to call at the county office and file an application for assistance. Office presonnel will be glad to explain the program. A Purdue soil test is requested for cost-sharing for the application of limestone. Forms for submitting samples are available in the county office. Samples should be taken early, so that limestone can be applied before the spring seeding of crops. Limestone must be applied to farmland that is in legumes or will be seeded to legumes or grasses, which must remain on the land for one summer growing season. Again in 1963, cost shares will be approved on eligible farmland for the establishment of vegetative cover providing wildlife food and habitat, developing shallow water areas and constructing ponds or dams for wildlife. The county committee will grant approvals in accordance with the need for the* practice, availability of funds and the amount of costshares received during the past three years. 1963 FEED GRAIN PROGRAM: There will be a feed grain program for 1963, similar to the 1961 and 1962 programs. Watch this column for details. Farm, grain sorghum and barley producers will be notified of their base acreage and rates of payment, this month. In the majority of cases, these will be the same as for previous years. JANUARY 31 DEADLINE FOR SOME LOANS AND PURCHASE AGREEMENTS: January 31, 1963 is the deadline for price suport on 1962 wheat, oats, barley, grain sorghum, rye and soybeans. Growers reminded that goodi storage which must first be approved by the county committee, is a requisite for obtaining a price support loah on any farm stored crop. All producers of oats, rye are eligible for price support provided the grain and. storage are eligible. Producers of soybeans on farms, who maintained their average 1959-60 conserving acreage are eligible for soybean loans cm eligible soybeans and storage. Participants of the 1962 wheat stabilization program are eligible for price support only on the farms participating. Rates: oats — $.64 per bushel, —barley $.95 per bushel, rye — $1.06 per bushel; wheat—s2.o2 per bushel, soybeans—s2.2s per bushel and grain sorghums —51.90 per cwt. Price support on corn is available to participants of the 1962 feed grain program, having eligible corn and eligible storage, at the rate of sl2l per bushel, proi ducers have until May 3T, 1963 to apply for a loan or purchase agreement. 1963 WHEAT PROGRAM: USDA reported substantual increase (to 3,947,392 acres) in acreage signed for diversion from wheat to conserving uses as of December 13, under the special voluntary 1963 wheat program. This is more than double signed diversions of 1,684,852 acres reported as of November 29 under the program. Diversion as of December 13 is about 31.5 per cent of 12,521,648 acres of allotments or small bases on the 266,082 farms signed to date. . AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS: Another year of high-level agricultural exports is developing for American agricuture in fiscal 1962-63 — the year that ends next June 30. Assuming no major changes in international tensions, indications are that US agricultural exports this fiscal year will not differ greatly from last year’s record of $5.1 billion. SECRETARY FREEMAN SAYS: “I doubt whether many people appreciate the fact that over 15 million American citizens in rural areas live in dire poverty — 15 millions Americans living under [SAVE 50% ■ SON ROOM ACCOMMODATIONS ANY WEEKEND T ( Thursday tfw Sundoy; 2-Dtiy Minimum) \ jWITH THIS COUPON UPON REGISTERING |SBI ■ 1 COMTUTtir *« COHOITIOHW ‘ • MOO AND TV IN EVERY (OOM ; , NO CHAIGE rot CHLDtEN UNtO M .( HwrttaWbrtd-taw * Swiss Chalet * •I Aiqpl, Adfatat < DANDOLPHat LA SALLE- ' t ia Ma tart W Ma Looa * K -waww«wwwaw—w-aaw—— * *- - M -- - S a • w KaW aw OTvaaw ■ t WSMARCK HOTEL, (oaa. ft t ‘‘l a"J 0 R—Offer Expires March 81. 1963 ;i - IT*.

conditions which by our average standard are terribly inadequate. “Too few Americans realize these grim facts. Too few realize that almost half of those people classed by the census bureau as farm operating families fall into an inadequate income category. Too few know that of the 8 million families in this country today with incomes of less than $2,500, some 4.1 million live in rural areas. “About 10 per cent of these families are Negro or Indians — minority groups on which added disparity of opportunity is piled on top of the usual disparity of rural income and job opportunity. “More than one-fifth of the 22 million youths who live in rural America are in poverty families—and each year 200,000 more children are born into these families. “Perhaps these statistics sound like a description of some of the developing nations we are seeking to help around the world — on the contrary, they describle conditions in our own society. “Now this administration has begun to develop ways to get our own under-developed areas moving ahead — as well as those in other nations. The actions we have taken should have been taken long ago—we can reach a fair level of living for the rural American — if we are willing to accept new ideas and explore new ways. Tangible progress has been made in that direction. We have new tools, and many people have shown their willingness to use them. We know the resources are in rural America waiting to be put to new uses. We are at a critical time when action counts —and I am optimistic that rural America will make the most of its new opportunities. SAFE DRIVERS: Every family and community wants safe drivers only. Safe drivers have dependable safety attitudes, knowledge, skill along with physical ability to see clearly and control their motor vehicles capably. Safe drivers are safe only in safe motor vehicles with windshield wipers, steering gear, exhaust, brakes, wheels, tires, lights, mirrors, and signals regularly inspected and dependably maintained. Safe drivers are alert, courteous, and sober, continuity observing safe driving practices and traffic regulations. Safe driving improves with experience and self-control suited to the traffic, the time of day or night, the weather, visibility, the road, and the vehicle. Safe drivers avoid acts of omission as well as commission, and make safe allowance for failure of other drivers or pedestrians. This is called defensive driving and is the mark of all safe drivers’, Safety is no accident. KEYS TO DEFENSIVE DRIVING: Obey all traffic regulations. Be alert at all times. Allow a margin of safety. Make your intentions clear. Stay in one lane as much as possible. Prepare for turns and stops. Keep an eye on parked cars. Pace yourself by the traffic around you. Don’t back into trouble. ~ Keep your self control. Reduce your speed at night. Always be courteous on the road. Adjust your speed according to road conditions. -.-siHold Kindergarten Registration Monday Registration will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. Monday at die Monmouth school for children planning to attend the Monmouth kindergarten, which will open Jan 21.

Russian Libraries Usually Crowded CHICAGO (UPI)-Soviet libraries are crowded, an exchange library group of Americans has found, and one reason is that home conditions are too congested for the enjoyment of reading. This and other interesting facts on Russian reading habits was disclosed in the American Library Association report released today and compiled from the experiences of seven Americans who toured the Soviet Union on a month-long mission during the spring of 1961. Book borrowing habits and access to collections vary widely with the status of the reader, and only “a small proportion” of the books are accessible on open shelves. The proportion is increas-

ing, the touring group noted. - One Soviet practice particularly interested the delegation, and that was the practice of .Reserving the author catalog for staff use only. Time and.<again, it was found, that if a reader wanted a book by a specific author, he was required to ask the„nelp of the library staff. The. staff member would then look up the call number and location of the volume in the author catalogs which were closed to the public. The delegation told of their visit to the Lenin Library (the great national, library of the Soviet Union) and “even there found missing” some authors whose works were objectionable to Soviet authorities. “It was assumed,” the group said, “that such books were kept in die special closed section which has its own catalog.” This collection is called “Spetskhran,” and is a Common feature of large Russian research libraries.
