Electric Power To Be
Rotioned In The Autumn

STOCKHOLM, NJ ay 10. (By
wireless) - Because of Sweden S
precarious fuel situation and the
steadily increased demand from
industry for electric power, ra-
tioning of electric current will be
enforced in Sweden in the fall. A
certain allotment will be given
each household, depending on the
normal consumption. The use of
electric pads and heaters will be
forbidden and a ''brown-out" will
be ordered on electric signs and
show windows.

Lindbergh's Exploit Recalled

One night, approximately 20
years ago, it suddenly became
quiet at the Sharkey-Maloney
fight in the Yankee Stadium.
The crowd of 10000 straw-hat-
ted men and short-skirted women
stood up and prayed.
The man they were praying for
was the same man about whom
the New York Times had 10000
anxious telephone calls in II hours.
He was the same man 10000
Frenchmen stood waiting for the
rext night near Paris.
Finally, among the Frenchmen
studying the sky someone heard a
motor. Someone fired rocket
flares. And 500 feet up, the glare

then, chief mail pilot and a Cap

entered the competition for the
$25,000 transatlantic prize put up
by Raymond Orteig, and with the
funds supplied by st. Louis people,
among them E. Lansing Ray, pub
Usher of the Globe-Democrat, Lind
bergh went out to San Diego
factory to get his plane.
He flew it to st. Louis and then
to Roosevelt Field, Long Island, on
May IL. The cross-country trip
was made in 81 hours and 20 min
utes, a record for it's day.
At 1852, Friday morning, May
20, Lindbergh took off for Paris
in heavy mist. His plane had a
wing spread of 46 feet, a fuselage
% feet long, and maximum
speed of 1913 miles an hour.
The lone flier had no radio and
all he took with him were two
sandwiches, two canteens of water,
two chocolate bars, two flashlights,
four red flares, one air raft with
pump, five cans of army emerg-
ency rations, two air cushions and
one hack saw blade.
Lindbergh also had with him
several letters of introduction to
United States Ambassador Myron
T. Herrick and others in diplomat
ic circles in France. He later ex-
planned to Mr.. Herrick that he
thought nobody knows me here"
Up along the Atlantic Coast, he
flew in fog and rain and before
morning, out over the Atlantic his
ship was coated with sleet. BY
midday Saturday he was flying
over Ireland, and the bulletins
were flashed on movie screens back
home. Then came the Normandy
coast and in the darkness he was
guided by beacons along the Lon
don-Paris air route, the search

and finally by the lights of the

Bourget airfield.
Then came the receptions: deco
rations and kisses from the Presi-
dent of France, the shouts of hun
dreds of thousands in the streets
of Paris, Brussels and London and
formal welcomes by the kings of
Belgium and England.
President Coolidge sent the
cruiser Memphis to bring the hero

ginia Capes, the Memphis was

oestroyers and flotilla of planes.

Then came New York. Millions lin

The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1947-10-23

Farmers are caught with every
one else in the pinch of the rising
cost of living, and those who blame
the food producer for prevailing
conditions have not made a thorough
analysis of circumstances, according
to Clair A. Patterson, chairman of
the Allen county AAA committee.
Among factors cited by Patterson
which are disadvantageous to the
farmer are the following:
l. The high price level applies to
many commodities other than those
produced on the farms, so the whole
price structure should be considered
rather than singing out just food
costs. Generally speaking, farmers
are still not receiving balanced
per capita share of the national in
come. In TtRe year of 1916 people
living on farms received approx
mately 10q6 of the nations income,
yet people living on farms account
ed for about 20@o of the total pop
ulation. T.
2. Prices received by fermers for
their raw products represent in gen.
eral only about 500 Of the total
price which consumers pay for their
food items. The balance goes fol-
+,.ay,sr,r,.+o+ +;ov, Y,rcraucsvtnr La@ dino
and profits along the way.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1947-10-23
Don't Blame Farmers For The High
Cost OF Living; They're Caught Too

3. Farmers do not set their own
prices. They sell on the open mark
ct and the price peak attained at
any given point in the year for a
product does not mean that all farm
ers were fortunate enough to have
sold at such prices. For instance,
corn is now quoted at well over 81
per bushel. Without doubt a big
per cent of last years crop went to
market at about half this current
price.
Furthermore, current farm prices
haven't been the result of any gen.
eral attempt of farmers to curtail
their production and force increased
prices on the basis of scarcity. Farm
ers, on the other hand, have def
nitely met their responsibility of
giving to the American people and
to the world the greatest quantity
of food and fiber that could be pro-
duced with the facilities available.
4. Recent production has cost
farmers tremendously in soil re-
sources. Farmers have been selling
off their capital asset of soil ele-
ments. Some of the income now be-
ing received must necessarily be re-
turned to the soils, so farmers have
ahead of them a big and costly job
! in restoring soil fertility.

superintendent of the Beaverdam
schools has returned to her home in
Lanark, H., it was reported the first
Of the week.
The report that the girl had re-
turned home came the first OF the
week following a long distance tele-
phone conversation between members
of the Paul family and Beaverdam
friends. No details were available.
The girl was reported missing
more than a week ago after she
went downtown in Lanark accomp-
anied by her 6-year old brother
Preston. Later she told the boy to
go home.
Her disappearance started a search
by authorities of eight northern
Illinois counties. Her father, Rev.
Paul, is pastor of the Church of the
Brethren at Lanark.

when grain is expected to remain
at top prices.
An indication of the investment
required for a feeding program this
year is the fact that shoats, not i'm
muned, are bringing around 35 cents
a pound at public auctions.
MUCH Soft CORN
Soft corn, however, will force
livestock feeding on many farmers,
for those with immatured, unmarked
able corn must feed it to livestock if
they hope to realize a return from
the crop.
Soft corn can't be moved on the
regular market, and the grain can't
be sold to neighbors, for most of
them also have a surplus of corn in
the same class. Consequently, the
only answer is to feed it to high
priced livestock, or let it rot in the
fields.
The fact that there is little live
stock on most farms, however, COM
plicates the problem of salvaging the
large proportion of soft corn, for
prices that must be laid on the line
for feeding stock makes the venture
risky one.
BREEDING Stock SOLD
Breeding stock, principally hogs.
was largely liquidated in this area
last summer because of tempting
high-priced markets. Many farmers
who sold off their stock expected to
do no feeding this winter, but now
find they are unable to market grain
as planned because their corn was
caught by the killing frost of mid.
September.
Feeding soft corn also entails much
more work than in handling matur,
ed grain, another complication that
farmers must face.
Immature corn cannot be harvest,
ed and cribbed, because of the dan,
ger of mold. One farmer is leaving
his corn stand in the field; and runs
his picker long enough every day OF
so to get enough grain for a few
days feeding.
Since soft corn will do best if left
on the stalk, experts say, and many
farmers will follow similar policy
rather than attempting to store the
grain.

Corn, Oats, SOybeans May Be
In Short Supply For 1913 Seed

Shortage of seed in 194S for three
major farm crop seems likely in this
area, according to farm observers
studying the effect of frost and rain
on soybeans, corn and oats.
Elevator operators have reported
that many samples of this years
corn crop reveal moisture of about
35 per cent. These test results re-
veal that although the moisture con-
tent is shrinking rapidly in hot, dry

Farmers To Feed SOfn

and hogs.
SHY AWAY FROM FEEDING
Attracted by the high return from
corn without the risks attendant
with livestock feeding many area
farm operators are following the ex-
ample set by one prominent live
stock feeder whose corn escaped the
frost deadline and who is not plan
ming to do feeding this winter.
Another unusual development this
fall finds little feeding stock on
farms. Most breeding stock, espe-
cially hogs, was sold last summer
because of record high prices then
prevailing.
Consequently, farmers who plan to
do any feeding during this coming
winter will be forced to go out and
bid for feeding stock at record
prices. Those who have matured
corn will not run the risks entailed
with raising livestock at a time

1948 have been advised to obtain
seeds from fields maturing before
frost.
Oats matured this summer in fields
damaged extensively by continued
spring rains. Yldds were low and
observers think that more oats than
usual will be fed on farms this win
ter, as a supplement to the soft corn
crop. AS q result there likely will
be considerably less oats for seed
next spring than in a normal sea-
son.
