Jr. —».—*.—President John G. Heller Vice President Chas. E. Hothouse .. Secretary-Treasurer Plain Talk Our good friend Mel Zoss called attention to a recent reprint of a much-publidhed letter written by a police chief, A. W. Johnson, in response to a request from his local PTA about teen-age problems. We have published It before, but we believe It bears repeating. “Always we hear the plaintive cry of teenagers— What can we do? Where can we go? The answer is — go home. Hang the storm windows; paint the woodwork; rake the leaves; Mow the lawn; shovel the walk; wash the car; Learn to cook; scrub some floors; repair the sink; built a boat; Get a job. Help the minister, priest or rabbi, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army — Visit the sick, assist the poor, study your lessons and, then — when you are through — and not too tired, read a book. Your parents do not owe you entertainment. ■ ■' Your village does not owe you recreation facil* ities. The world does not owe you a living. You owe the world something. You owe it your time and energy and your talents — so that no one will be at war or in poverty, sick or lonely again. In plain, simple words, grow up. Quit being a crybaby. Get out of your dream-world and start act- „. ing like a man or a lady.” Editorial written by mtk HeDer

ASCS Farm Notes

PREMEASUREMENT IS IMPORTANT: Premeasurement is a service offered to farmers, for the first time, this year. This service ia especially important and helpful to producers who intend to participate in the 1984 feed grain program. ADVANTAGES OP PREMEASUREMENT: 1. Acreages determined by promeasurement will be official tor 1964. ’ 2. Fields are measured before the crop is planted. 3. Acreages will not need to be adjuested after the crop is planted. 4. Income assurance —on the acreage placed in the feed grain program, payments will be the same as listed on the feed grain application, provided aU requirements such as seeding diverted acreage, etc., are complied with. HOW TO APPLY FOR PREMEASUREMENT SERVICE: Requests for premeasurement service must be filed in the county ASCS office not later than April 10, 1964 <if the service is for acreage in the feed grain program). The required deposit must be made at the time the request is filed. ( We urge all fanners to think about this service and call at the county office for further explanation, if they do not understand it. 19M FEED GRAIN SIGNUP IS NOW UNDERWAY: The feed grain sign-up started February 10. During the first three days. 60 Adams county farmers signed up to divert approximately 1.000 acres from corn to a conservation use. Advanced payments, which are about one-half of the total diversion payment .are made soon after the time of signing up, if the producer requests it. Approximately $15,000 advance payments have been made to producers on the 60 farms signed. The remainder of the diversion payment, plus a price support payment, if any feed grains are permitted on the farm, will be made after September 1, 1964. The three feed grains involved in the program are: corn, grain sorghum and barley, corn being the major feed grain in Adams county.

SIGNUP PERIOD EXTENDS THROUGH MARCH St: With the exception of Friday, February SI, —a legal holiday — producers may sign up at the county office. Mondays through Fridays from T:45 d.m. to 4:30 p.m. And Don’t Forget Premeasurement.” FARMERS WHO DO NOT HAVE A FEED GRAIN BASE: Farmers Who did not produce feed grains during the years 1959 and 1960, who wish to have a base established for their farm, may file an application tor a feed grain base at the county office until March 1, 1964. If a feed grain base is set up for the farm — the operators will not be eligble to participate in the 1964 feed grain program, however, if com was planted within the base established, the operator would be eligible to sign up on other farms. CONSERVATION USES APPROVED FOR CROPLAND DIVERTED ACREAGE: The following conservation uses have been approved for cropland diverted acreage: 1. Permanent or rotation cover of perennial grasses and biennial or pemnial legumes. 2. Summer or winter cover crops consisting of small grains, legumes or grassed including volunteer stands of such crops that are normally seeded in the area. Wheat and barley may be used as a cover crop only when destroyed by natural cßU6es, plowed down as green manure, destroyed by mechanical means, or clipped and left on the land not later than June 15, 1964. Soybeans may be used as a cover crop only when incorporated into the soil prior to maturity, but not later than September 1, 1964. 3. Trees or shrubs planted in the current year or in the fall of the preceding year for erosion control, shelterbelts or wildlife habitat. 4. Water storage developed in the current year or in the fall of the preceding year for any purpose, including fish or wildlife habitat. 5. Wildlife food plots or habitat, (other than wheat acreages) when plantings are for wildlife food plots or establishment of wildlife habitat. Barley, com and grain sorghums will qualify only if planted on small plots and designated for such purposes and approved by the county committee for such purpose prior to planting and no grazing or harvesting other than by wildlife, is permitted. 6. Com or grain sorghums plowed down as green manure. However, other other approved conservation use* will be required if necessary to protest the land throughout the cropping season. 7. Clean tillage carried out in a work-like manner to control noxious weeds, provided: prior approval of the county committee is obtained and measures prescribed by the county committee for the control of erosion are carried out. 8. Volunteer cover. predominantly native grasses and legumes*(not weeds), which is acceptable to the county committee and which will be as effective in preventing wind anc| water erosion as seeded cover. DIVERTED ACREAGE NOT TO BE GRAZER AFTER MAY 1: Grazing of diverted acreage is not permitted between May 1 and November 1, 1964. Neither shall any crop be taken from the diverted acreage at any time during the year. CONSERVING BASE SHALL BE MAINTAINED ON FEED GRAIN FARMS: The established conserving base (average for 1959 and 1960) must be maintained to be eligible to qualify for feed grain payments. However, if for some reason, this acreage is not needed, such reason may be submitted to the county committee in writing and the records for the farm will be reviewed for possible adjustment. This does not mean that all conserving bases can be adjusted. Keeping in mind that the purpose of the feed grain program is

to reduce production, very few adjustments will be made. Producers having a problem relative to conserving acreage are urged to call at the county office. EXCERPTS FROM A MESSAGE ON AGRICULTURE BY PRESIDENT JOHNSON: In a message on agriculture to the congress of the United States January 31, the President said: “American agricultural economy is the most productive in the world. Its efficiency is constantly increasing. One American farmer today provides 25 domestic consumers and four people overseas with the total food and fiber needs. His output has increased 140 per cent since the end of World War 11, almost three times the grain in n o n-farm productivity. The consumer as a result must spend a smaller percentage of his budget to meet his food needs than ever before in our history. “During the past three years, a series of new farm programs and policies has achieved considerable progress toward three basic goals of the administration — agricultural policy, higher farm income, reduced farm surpluses and lower governmental costs. “Gross farm income in 1963 was 3.2 billion dollars higher than 1960, a gain of 8 per cent. “Net income per farm rose during this same period from $2,961 billion to $3,425 billion, a gain of 16 per cent. “Government stocks of feed grains have declined by 22,000,000 tons from their 1961 high of 85,000,000 tons, enabling us to save $230,000,000 a year on storage and other carrying charges. “Our agricultural exports in 1963 were $5.6 million, the highest in history. They represented one quarter of our total exports of goods and services. “Farm-dependent towns and industries have reflected this economic improvement. Bank deposits in agricultural counties have increased 20 per cent, and farmers have been able to purchase an estimated $800,000,000 more in farm equipment in the past three years than they would have been able to buy -with a 1960 level of income.” The president also said that statistical totals can be deceiving, pointing to low income for the

farm family and farm laborers, .steadily rising costs, the proportion of the poor in rural areas and below standard homes in farming communities. Continuing, the President sajd—“Our task, therefore, is threefold: • " . “First—to maintain and improve farm income, strengthening the family farm in particular. “Second — To use our food abundance to raise standards of living, both at home and around the world. “Third — To accelerate the development and conservation of both material and human resources in rural America where 1/3 of our citizens live.” AGRICULTURE NEEDED FOR GROWTH: Agriculture has three distinct but essential roles to play in promoting growth: First, agriculture must supply the food required by rapidly expanding urban populations in the developing countries. If the demand is not met, there may be hunger — even starvation; or food must be acquired from abroad, which depletes the foreign exchange needed to im-

port industrial equipment and raw materials. Second, agricultural expansion is required as working capital and nonagricultural development — to generate raw materials for industry, to earn foreign exchange, and to free labor from agriculture and make it available for industrial construction and operation. Third, a rise in agricultural incomes stimulates other aspects of development. It provides the capital accumulation needed for further growth, through savings required for investment or as a critically important source of increased tax revenues. It also provides expanded manufactured consumers’ goods. THE SAFETY CORNER: How many driver-sleep accidents occur??? No one knows — dead men don’t talk. One thing is definitely knownplenty 'of accidents happen when a driver dozes off and his car goes out of control. Eyes are one of the most important items for safe driving.— How you use the eyes is equally as important as t© have«good eyesight. Defective vision habits are more

deadly than defective eyesight. Some drivers with good eyesight — look without seeing! Outside distraction or personal thoughts prevent drivers from seeing what they look at. Remember! the eye is merely a camera — the brain must be “tuned in” 0 o Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee | 0 o Q. I am to be the best man for a good friend, and I’d like to give him a piece of luggage. But if I do this, I shall not be able to afford a gift for the bride. Would It be proper for me to give this one gift? A. Sorry — but if you are able to afford only one gift, it must be something for both the bride and bridegroom. Q. What can I do, when with a crowd, and all the others suggest eating in a certain restaurant which I do not like? A. You should always try tc abide by the wishes of the majority — that is ,if you want to maintain your friendship with them.
