STORAGE OF WHEAT
Farmers Desiring Loans Will Find
Protected Storage

A problem which confronts Kent
county farmers this summer is the
marketing of their wheat crop. AS
storage space is limited in termin-
al elevators and warehouses, it is
necessary that farmers arrange to
store their wheat on their farms
until it can be moved through the
regular marketing channels. Land
owners and tenants who desire to
obtain government loans on their
1912 wheat crop will be required to
keep their wheat separate and to
store it where it will be protected
against loss or damage. Within
the near future meeting of agri-
cultural conservation district COM
mitteemen will be held in Dover to
discuss the wheat situation and to
plan for the inspection of all farms
in the county for compliance in the
1912 conservation program. In
structions relative to this farm pro-
gram will be given by R. o. Stel-
ger, Executive Assistant, Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration,
with the assistance of county and
state committeeman.
