Farm Body Plans
Wheat Regulation
Organized by Townships, Pro-
moters Would Parcel Out

Columbus, Neb.. March 13.-A new
money saving" or money making
movement for farm aid Is being
launched In the vicinity of Columbus.
The new movement calls itself the
Wheat Farmers Price Regulation as
sociation.
Oscar Holman. st. Paul. MINI, one
Of the representatives Of the new
organization, says the plan is to
organize all the wheat producing
farmers in the United States into an
organization by townships. counties
and states and then parcel out to
each the amount Of wheat he shall
find 1t necessary to raise to keep from
over-production.
Mr. Holman. who begins his activi.
ties In Butler county this week. said
that the idea OF the organization was
20 figure out the exact amount of
American wheat needed In the United
States every year to meet exact pro
duction demands and then dividing
the future needs Of the nation in pro-
portion TO each farmers acreage, dl-
rect him how many bushels he can
safely produce and yet avoid over
production.
Mr.. Holman says the association
proposes to leave the amount of, acre
age to the individual farmer. since
some soil will average more bushels
Of wheat to the acre than others, and
a farmer win be merely Informed
how many bushels he can safely pro-
duce. He can then figure out how
rlany acres he needs to plant.
Holman declared that his organiza-
tion had no connection with the Ma
tlonal Producers alliance. which has
been organizing 1000 farmers in this
section In an effort to perfect move
ment that will enable farmers to
