FEDERAL CROP IN
SURANCE ON WHEAT

The Federal Crop Insurance Pro-
gram for wheat is part Of the gen.
eral program Of the United States
Department of Agriculture, admin
istered for the benefit of agricul-
ture. For the purpose Of admins
tering the program, the Federal
Crop Insurance Corporation was
set up. This corporation insures
wheat for losses Of every kind, such
as drought, tornado, hail, rust, in
sect pests. diseases, damage by an.
imals, too much or too little mois-
ture. The corporation does not in.
sure the price Of wheat, but it does
insure a supply Of wheat for the
farm.
To explain the Crop Insurance
Program more clearly, we offel
the following example: Suppose
that the average wheat yield Of 6
farm is $50 bushels per acre, anG
he has twenty acres Of wheat, he
would be guaranteed 1915 Of 15.(
bushels or 11.2 bushels per acre
and If the farm only produced 81
net bushels for the crop year fol-
which it was insured, then the Fed
eral Crop Insurance Corporation
would pay him the difference be.
tween 11.2 bushels and 80 bushels
or 80 bushels per acre. The loss
would be computed at 80 bushels
time 20 (acres) or 1910 bushels
which would be paid at the market
price of wheat at the time the loss
was adjusted.
The premium rate for this farm
was 1.5 bushels per acre, so the
premium for the 20 acres of wheat
would be 20 x is bushels, or il
wheat was selling for 80c per bus.
hel when the farmer applied fol
insurance, then the cash equivalent
of the premium would be 30 x
$50 or $24.00.
Any spring wheat producer who
is interested in taking out Federal
Wheat Crop Insurance on his 1941
wheat crop, should write or con.
tact the Stearns County Agricultur
al Conservation Office, located al
120 5th Ave. So, st. Cloud, Mime

From the County Agent, St. Cloud :. -.

be tested in a 2-week period and
get this job done well requires the
cooperation Of all cattle owners.
An interesting slant in connection
with the T. B. test in any county
is the check on the cattle popula-
ton Of q county. It will be inter
esting in Stearns county to see
what the trend in livestock num-
bers has been since 1885. In 1882
the test revealed 100000 head of
cattle. In 1885 the test, following
the drouth Of 1884, showed only 95,-
600 head. Many people believe that
the cattle population now in the
county Is larger than it was in
1882.
Another hog cholera school will
be scheduled in Stearns county this
winter, according to the county
agents office at st. Cloud. This
year the school will be held at st.
Cloud and a little later the defin-
ite place for holding the school will
be announced. The date set for
this years school will be December
II and 18. This 2-day school will
be in charge of DR.. w. A. Billings,
extension veterinarian at University
Farm.
During the morning Of the first
day DR.. Billings always discusses
livestock diseases other than hog
cholera itself. Beginning with the
afternoon Of the first day the in
struction on hog cholera actually
starts. At the completion Of this
2-day school an examination is held
and all folks passing the examina-
ton will receive what is known as
a layman's permit which permits
them to use both serum and virus
in the vaccination Of their own
hogs. With several outbreaks Of
cholera in the east end Of Stearns
county this year there is a need
for instruction work on hog chol-
era.
Bales of choice Southern cotton
will be shipped directly into Stearns
county to be turned into mat
tresses for the use of local rural
families if plans are carried
through for the latest type of coop
Grafton to remove price-depressing
surpluses from the American mar
ket.
County agricultural agent, e. c.
Lenzmeier, and home demonstra-
ton agent, Ellen Moline, sometime
ago called the first meeting of per-
sons interested to consider steps
for sponsoring the program in this
county. Representatives of six
county organizations were present
to hear an explanation of the plan
given by Miss Agnes Morrell, home
demonstration worker from Uni
versity Farm. They discussed set
ting up local committee which
would take the steps necessary for
receiving applications and compil-
ing the figures needed to place
the cotton order from this county.
The committee named by the
group to carry out the supervision
of the work in Stearns county is as
follows: Miss Jeanette Goldthorp,
of the Farm Security Administra-
ton, J. A. Kraus, county welfare
supervisor, Lawrence Herzog,
county commissioner, Walter Rue

What Causes Cheese to get stringy
When Used for Cooking?
Cheese may become stringy
when melted at too high temper
ature. Well-aged or ripened cheese
has less tendency to get stringy
even at somewhat high tempera-
lures than green cheese. Cheese
not sufficiently ripened is less sat
isfactory as cooking cheese than
the older, more highly favored,
mellow types.-Ina Rowe, nutrition
specialist, University Farm.
Is 1t Necessary To Scald Milk or
Cream When Making A Baked
Custard?
No, scalding Is not necessary, but
the custard will bake more quickly
