Then Wally talked me into fly fishing.
No, you don't fish for flies - you use fancy
little artificial bugs as bait

We went fishing yesterday. All last week
the house has been covered with flies, reels,

Now sat down with crochet hook.

"A fsh-ician, maybe?" said sweetly.
He shuddered, gave me "good-by-for-

THE Mills Brothers and other

hottest quartet this side of Gyp-

noon. Despite the fact that all
four were off key and that An

quartet is excellent and is headed
for big things as soon as it can
broaden its repertoire.

Corn Loans
Nav Be Extended

Ottawa county corn producers
have a chance to extend their gov
ernment loans on l94S crop corn
to July 81, 1850, and to put pur-
chase agreement corn from the
l94S crop under loans to mature
July 81, 1850, Charles w. Stick
ney, state chairman of the Pro-
duction and Marketing Admins
tration Committee, revealed to-
day.
1t is the opinion of the Ohio
State PIMA Committee that the
storage picture for the years
l949-50 is very dark. Farmers in
this county should begin to think
about on the farm storage so that
they may avail themselves of price
support programs.
Farmers who extend their loans
or put purchase agreement corn
under loan will be entitled to a
storage payment of 10 cents n
bushel for the extended period if
{ the corn is delivered to Commodity
Credit Corporation at maturity of
the loan. Deadline for taking ad-
vantage of the re-esealing pro-
gram is October 81.
Farmers who do not have price
support protection on 194S crop
corn still have until June 80 to
apply for either loans or purchase
agreements at their county Triple
A office. To date, 1877 bushels
of 194S corn are under loan in OF
tawa county, and 1894 bushels
are under purchase agreement,
Henry H. Burning said.
The re-seal program is design
ed to slow down the excessive
movement of corn off the farms
that would result from heavy de-
liveries of loan and purchase
agreement corn to CCC this fall,
he explained.
Originally, loans on the 194s
corp corn were to become due on
September /, l949. Now farmers
have the option of paying off loans
at that time, delivering the corn
to CCC, or, not later than Octo-
Der 81, 1949, extending the loans
to mature July 81, 1850.

Churches Aid
In CROP Drive

The Ottawa county CROP cam
paign rolled into the final lap this
week as township solicitors con-
tinued to canvas their respective
areas for wheat and cash contri-
buttons to the worlds needy.
Drive began last Sunday and
will end Sunday, June 26.
Final report on the campaign
will appear in the July / edition
of the Ottawa County News. A
countrywide meeting of all town
ship chairman has been scheduled
for Monday, June 81. Complete
reports on pledges and contribu-
tions are to be turned in at that
time.
The 1949 goal has been set at
two carloads of wheat. Last years
CROP drive netted one carload of
wheat valued at more than $4,000.
Cars, donated by each county in
Ohio, make up the CROP friend
ship train which is shipped over
seas by the U. S. government.
Wheat and cash contributions
are both being accepted. In the
communities of Oak Harbor, Ell
more, Genoa, Port Clinton and
Marblehead, no soliciting cam
paign is being conducted. Contri-
buttons, however, are being taken
through the various churches.
Township chairmen are to supply
