Farmers May Be Asked To Store
Surplus Corn Crop In Own Bins

Washington, Oct 6-Agricul-
ture Department officials said to-
day that they may have an an
sWer T. the governments grain
storage problem which eventu-
ally will help reduce meat prices.
The government, they said,
may ask farmers, including Noble
county, to continue to store in
their bins deep into 1850 any corn
the department is forced to pur-
chase this year under the price
support program.
Agriculture department plan
ncrs have been plagued by the
threat of an acute shortage OF
grain storage space ever since
it was announced that this years
corn crop probably will hit a re-
cord 3,528,815,000 bushels.
The law compels the govern
ment to support corn prices this
year at 81 "A bushel at the farm.
This will be done by two methods
price support loans and pur-
chase agreements with the Com
modify Credit Corporation
Under the loan plan, the Noble
county farmer takes out a loan
on his corn. If prices stay above
support levels, he sells his crop
on the open market and repaYs
the government. Otherwise, he
lets the government take his
crop.
In view of this years huge
yield, as much as 400,000,00C
bushels of corn may be placed
under loan. And a large share OF
| it is expected to wind up in gov
ernment hands when the new
corn loans mature next fall.
Normally the government
would haul away the corn to its
own warehouses or store it If
commercial elevators. This year
, however, commercial storage
space is tight and Congress ha!
, forbidden Commodity Credit tt
expand its own storage facilities
AS a result, the department i!

store government corn even afte1

stopped up soil is deep-rooted le-
gumes and grasses in the rotation.
The tap-roots of sweet clover and
alfalfa well fed with phosphate and
potash pierce the, compacted soil.
Plowed under legume roots and
tops build up the organic matter
supply. When this organic matter
decomposes it gives off compounds
that stick soil particles together
in loose granules. When your soil
is loose and grainy it has good
filth.
How deep-rooted legumes help
improve drainage was shown in
Iowa tests. Silt loam that had been
in alfalfa three years absorbed 2h
inches of water in the first three
hours following a rain. Soil left
bare of crops absorbed only about
half an inch of rain in this time. :

Putting in more drain tile may
give you temporary relief. But it
is not a permanent solution.

Make Use OF Props
In Grain Marketing

Keep the deal in strong
hands" is the advice to Ohio
farmers by rural economists at
Ohio State University, when
asked about future prices for
cereals, feed grains, and soybeans.
The economists explain that no
person can accurately predict
what feed and grain prices will
be six months from now, but
every farmer can be certain the
market situation will be most
favorable for producers if the
commodities are kept in strong
hands.
Government loans and pur-
chase agreements are available
on wheat, corn, and soybeans, and
the loan and purchase rate repre-
sent the 80 per cent of parity
values placed upon some farm
commodities by Congress. The
loans can be obtained or the pur-
chase agreements made if the
farmer provides safe storage
space for grain or soybeans.
Both the purchase agreement
and the loan agreement permit
the farmer to market the COM
modify on the open market dur
ing the period of the agreement
if that action is advantageous to
the farmer. The government ac-
ton in agreeing to purchase or in
making a loan is simply issuing
the farmer an insurance policy
that he always can obtain at least
the amount per bushel specified
in the contract.
The insurance strengthens the
farmers hands in the 1948-4 4S
marketing of wheat, corn, and
soybeans. IndiScriminate dump
ing Of corn, wheat, or soybeans
on the market might break prices
considerably below the 80 pei
cent of parity level A large part
of the 1948 corn crop will be
made into pork which will no
reach market before November
l949, and the cheapest place t.
hold corn is in farm cribs.
The government purchase
agreements and loans are avail
able to farmers who have accept
able storage for grain or soy
beans. The storage must affort
protection from weather damage
Temporary structures will keel
corn safely, and soybeans do no
require elal ~ te storage facili
ties. Applications for govenrmen

loans should be made througl

ton of buying back their grain
at any time.
Officials said such a program
would be a definite help" in
getting farmers to step up their
meat production. Meat prices are
very sensitive to supply. More
beef and pork almost automati-
cally means lower prices.
"The farmer is much more apt
to increase his meat production" "
said one official, "If he has crib
full of corn he can buy at the
support price whenever he needs
it than he would be if he had to
bid for corn on the open market" "

The horse and mule population
on American farms has steadily
declined since 1885, while the
number of tractors has increased
just as steadily during the same
period. More than three million
tractors now in use on the ma
tion's farms represent 1876 per-
cent increase since 1885 This is
just another factor in the ever
increasing use of oil products to
produce more food.
Larger feed supplies are likely
to reduce the meat supply in the
near future rather than to in
crease it. Cattle and hog feeders
will keep livestock on feed long
er periods than animals have
been held in past months when
feed was scarce. The delay in
marketing will mean more
pounds of meat finally, but that
time probably will be after JAN
uary !, l949.
