By DONALD FRANTZ 1 Agriculture Extension Agent Analysis of 1963 Feed Grain Program for Kosciusko County by Jack M. Hart, County Extension Agent. < . ' , Sign up for the 1963 Feed Grain program which began Feb. 1 and will continue through March 22. Farmers with a feed: grain base are eligible to participate in the program. The base includes com, grain sorghum, and barley. The feed grains program is to provide (Inpayments on the acres diverted,. (2) price support on your entire 1963 feed grain crop, and (3) additional price-support payments on normal production of acres' planted — regardless of what hap- ' pens to the Crop. This last item means that you do not have to seal your, corn to receive the pricesupported payment, but may dispose of the corn by feeding or selling if you wish. If you wish to participate in this program, you must sign up at the ASC Office between February 1 and March 2’2 to reduce acreage at least 20 per cent below the feed grain base for your farm, carry out your intentions, and not exceed the feed-grain base on any other., farm in which you have an inter- - est in. the feed grain crops. The ASC county committee has established a total feed grain base for your farm from the acreage history for corn, barley, and grain sorghum for 1959 and 1960 that you gave them. There are diversion limits in this program. The maximum diversion for payment is 40 per cent of the total feed grain base or 24 acres, whichever is larger, but in no case will exceed the tota-1 feed grain base for the farm. The price support in 1963-will ‘be in two parts? (1) a loan or purchase agreement on the 1963 production and (2> price-support payment made after compliance is checked. The diversion rates for ; Kosciusko county will be $1.26 for! corn, SI.OO for barley, and sl.lO , for grain sorghum. Program cooperators are eligible to place their [ entire production of the three feed grains under price-support loan. The price-support payment is figured from the established yield per acre and the 1963 acreage of the three feed grains on your farm. The rates are: corn, 18 cents a bushel, barley, 14 cents a bushel, and grain sorghum, 16 cents per bushel. v Let’s use the county average figures and figure out an assumed 80 acre feed grain base farm when com is the primary feed grain.. The county averages are as follows: com yield established, 62 bushel; payment rate for first 20 per cent diverted; $15.62; payment rate for acres over 20 per cent, $39.06; and price-support payment for com, 18 cents a bushel. If the farm diverts only 20 percent of the base, the diversion payment would be figured like this:

20 per cent of 80 acres equals 16 acres; 16 acres times $15.62 equas $249.92 total diversion If the farm diverts more than 20 per cent, say 20 -per cent more or the whole 40 per cent, the payment would be figured like.this: 20 per cent of 80 acres equals 16 acres; 16 acres times ($15.62 equals $249.92; 20 per cent more or 16 acres times $39.06 equals $624.96, making total diversion payment $249.92 plus $624.96 or $874.88. The price-support .payment would be figured’on the actual acreage of corn planted. If the farm only diverts' the 20 per cent and plants the remainder of the base or 64 acres the payment would be like this: 62 bushels times 18 cent equals $11.16 an acre. 64 acres times $11.16 equals $714.24 price-support payment. If the farm diverted the 40 per cent and plants the’ remainder of . the base or 48 acres the payment would be 48 times $11.16 or $53^.68.. The acres diverted from the production of feed grains are to be used for approved conservation measures. Erosion, weeds, rodents, and insects are also to be controlled on the diverted acreage. Diverted acreage under the 1963 feed grain program may be grazed until May 1, 1963 and then again after November 1, 1963. See yoiir county ASC office regarding conservation practices. I have not attempted to elaborate on the many variations that will occur on individual farms. For instance when 40 per cent of the base Is less that 25 acres and the farmer wishes to divert the twenty-five acres. ’ . . We will be glad to discuss the program with individuals or groups and we urge you to contact the ASC office on individual problems. ' IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

All efforts so far has been toward promoting the lake area as a summer recreation area, but an area-of winter sports, almost as great,’has been sadly neglected. It’ll do residents of Kosciusko county well to get behind the Winter Carnival, that it can become an annual affair.

state general assembly, but this is the arena in Which both are attempting to attract state wide attention for themselves and their respective parties. Kizer would like to become Indiana’s next governor, and Bontrager would like to be the Republican to run against Senator Vance Ilartke in 1964. 7Both men can aiid do find plenty to talk about in their TV debates and speeches on the senate floor. Their TV debates are becoming more talked about than the famous “Ev and Charlie” show, at least here in Indiana. Hoosiers will watch this calculated drama unfold the remainder of February and size both these men up as to their future use and service to Hoosierdom.

Don't Allow Child To Talk Back LAFAYETTE — A child who “sasses” or talks back constantlymay be expressing a lack of respect for his parents, observes Mrs. Elaine T. Dolch, family life and ch;ld development specialist at Purdue university. This is a breakdown in" the fam_iiy relationship that makes it difficult for the parent to guide the child. • ' ' ■ A child talks back for a number of reasons, often in rebellion. Usually he uses the quick response of . talking back when he is asked to do somethiing he doesn’t want to do, or if he is denied something he wants. x A three or four-year-old is often considered “spunky” or “cute” if he mimics or says a smart retnlrk, but the eight or nine-year-old wjio says the same thing is not as cute. You wish that child had learned to hold his tongue. . We mu§t remember that talking back is a habit that is quickly learned, but difficult to break. It is best to prevent this habit from forming'at all. Teach your child at an early age that talking back iis not an acceptable way of expressing his emotions, urges the specialist. a One way to prevent this situation is to niake only necessary requests and commands and then stand behind them. Don’t allow the •child to “get away " with it this time, but don’t do it anymore.” This only lets him begin the habit of talking back. Few parents have not spanked their child for talking back. But the parent usually doesn’t accomplish what he wants to by spanking. He doesn’t help the child learn to cope with the situatoini Mrs. Dolch feels that spanking is most effective if it is reserved as an emergency measure. Another thing to remember is that a child mimics his parents’

STICK TO YOUR PRINCIPLES

Dear Amy: Recently, very old friends of ours ran into some marital trouble and agreed to a trial separation. She took the children and went to her mother’s (who lives out of state) while he took the cash (from their joint bank account) and is living it up. Since we. are such old friends, I suggested that we invite him to our home for a good old-fashioned Sunday dinner (and a talking to) so that pertiaps he could see what he was ready to give up. My husband said that he would invite him. That evening my husband returned and said that the invitation was accepted but with one hitch. Our friend wanted to bring along a ‘girlfriend.’ I said, “NO”—emphatically and definitely “NO!” Hubby says I’m wrong but I’m sticking to my guns. I don’t know this iadyfriend’ nor do I care to meet her. As far as I’m concerned, he’s still married ... to . my friend. Gilda Dear Gilda: Stick to your guns! You can’t hope to reconcile their marriage by entertaining the man with a . ‘ladyfriend’ on his arm. ♦ ♦ ♦ Dear Amy; In regard to the woman who did not like her birthday on Christmas day : My birthday is on New Year’s Day,my wife’s on May 30th. We always considered it an honor to have them on such special days and so should she. An Interested Reader * * * Dear Amy: Please help me! What causes body odor? I am very self-con-scious about the way I smell. I think I have an odor, but I don’t know why because I take a bath every night and wash in the morning. I even splash on cologne. Please try to understand my problem and don’t, think I’m silly. How can I overcome my self-con-sciousness? What can I do so I won’t have an offensive odor? Age 13. Self-Conscious Dear Self-Conscious: Girls your age suddenly become aware of many things including

behavior. .He often responds in ways his parents respond to each other or to him. Don’t be surprised to hear your child use words and phrases you have used to him or to another adult; Helping your child learn respect and regard for other people is one of the primary goals of a parent, reminds the specialist. The feeling of respect basic it applies' to all human relationships. Lack of respect for his and adults in general may even impede the child’s progress in school. He must respect his teacher to be able to learn.

body odors which usually don’t exist if they bathe and change their clothes daily while using a good deodorant. If you still have suspicions, ask mother to take you to your family doctor. He win determine whether there is anything organically wrong or just mind over matter. • • • Dear Amy: f . . Unfortunately, my father recently passed away. He was a prominent business man and had many friends. I have received numerous cards of condolence, baskets of fruit and many donations were made to charities in his name. Now, I don’t know how to handle all of this. My husband said to send “Thank You” cards to everyone who sent gifts or made donations. But if I do this, I would be slighting those who just sent sympathy cards. We would appreciate knowing just how to handle this. A Grateful Daughter Dear Daughter: Cards of acknowledgement should be sent to everyone who was kind enough to express their sympathy. Morticians usually supply these cards as part of their service. • • • Dear Amy: l am a boy of ten and my mother makes me go to bed at 8:00 pm with my brother and sister, while jny sister age 15 stays up as long as she wants. I would like to see a program at 9 pm and have beep refused permission. What shall I do? TViewer Dear TViewer: Your mother’s wishes take precedent over the TV schedule. Act like a man . . . son, and when you reach the ripe old age of fifteen, you too will be permitted the privilege your older sister now enjoys. «• ♦ » PERSONAL TO Marty: Drinking doesn’t drown your sorrows; it only irrigates them. *# # x Please address all letters to: AMY ADAMS c/o THIS NEWSPAPER For a personal reply enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope.
